156. Do you agree to a ghost?

"Oh?" Mr. Qiu became interested, "Why do you say that?"

Cao Yang did not hide it, talking about his future industry vision, "I think so. The current penetration rate of personal computers in our country is still very low. With a population of 1.3 billion, less than 300 million people own computers. The growth rate of this number is very terrible. You should know that four years ago, the number of people owning computers in our country was only 10 to 20 million, and now it is basically doubled every year."

Judging from the computer sales performance, Lenovo has made more money than games.

"So, judging from the current upper limit, computer game players in our country should be able to reach a theoretical value of 300 million." Cao Yang continued, "Of course, this is unlikely. There are also a large number of people who only use it for office work, not to play games.

The total gaming population in our country is only about 10 million to 20 million, and the total gaming market generated every year is about 2 billion to 4 billion."

And this number is still rising.

It is rising year by year with a rather terrifying growth rate.

It will grow to a terrible 240 billion in about 20 years.

It is conceivable how much space can be mined?

"The next 10 years will be the 10 years of the explosion of computer population and game population, so," Cao Yang said, "Although the domestic game market seems to be squeezed by netizens at present, it does not mean that it will continue to decline in the future. With the growth of the total gaming population, the number of stand-alone games will also increase accordingly.

There are always people who don’t like socializing, online games, and there are always people who like to explore and enjoy the joy of games alone.”

Cao Yang smiled, "So I think there is a market for both stand-alone and online games, and they can be done."

Sometimes, you still have to let go of the theory and some fake things, otherwise how can others know your excellence?

What's more, according to Cao Yang's idea, it is estimated that he is not the only one who thinks of these things. There are many talented people in Kingsoft, and there are also people who have a strong sense of the market and are good at analyzing.

For example, Lei Jun.

"Hahahaha," Mr. Qiu laughed proudly, "Mr. Cao, we have the same view, I think so too."

Qiu Bojun raised his wine glass and ran into Cao Yang for a while.

"We think so. To put it bluntly, what we do in the end is the needs of players. China's market is very large and the needs of players are also different. At least we can retain core users, continue to deepen our efforts, and provide better products, but we will not fail.

In the end, it's just a matter of how much profit is."

"Yeah." Cao Yang agreed with Qiu Zong's statement.

What really destroyed the stand-alone market in the past life was pirated.

This time, without the threat of piracy, it is actually feasible to slowly build an ecosystem for stand-alone games.

There was actually a dinner like this in my previous life.

At that time, Lei Jun, who was Kingsoft CEO, found Huang Hongbo, the chairman of Huayi Company. The two had a dinner all night and had a chat for several hours.

But the contents of the discussion are different.

At that time, "The Stone Age" represented by Huayi had already gone downhill. Boss Lei talked about how to acquire Huayi's game business in mainland China.

In other words, Kingsoft, who later entered the market, came from behind and surpassed Huayi, and then successfully swallowed Huayi's game business in the mainland.

This situation shows two things-

First, it is not the people who are advanced to the market that can laugh to the end.

Second, hard strength is very important.

Kingsoft has a strong R&D team. It does not take the agency route and switches to online games by itself. The Swordsman Love Online Edition was successful as soon as it was launched, which shows that Chinese people know better about the Chinese market.

This is also what Cao Yang wants to tell today.

After chatting for a while, in addition to Cao Yang and Qiu Zhuang talking a lot during the meal, Qiu Xin and several bigwigs from Xishanju also joined the topic to express their thoughts.

In fact, after all, everyone is a gamer.

Sometimes people in the game are very simple, especially those like Qiu Xin. They came to Kingsoft to do martial arts games at the beginning because they were obsessed with martial arts, and the same is true for Qiu Zheng. Everyone likes Jin Yong and Gu Long, which is an adult fairy tale and a kind of sentiment.

This kind of sentiment may not be understood by people born in the 1990s, but for those born in the 1970s and 1980s, they have had a martial arts dream since childhood.

"So, playing games is actually showing the dream to others." Qiu Xin blushed, hiccupped, and concluded.

"Yes, yes." Cao Yang agreed with this statement.

At the beginning, there were so many twists and turns in the game, just to do what they like.

Some people succeed, make money, and some people fail and disappear.

But the process itself is very meaningful and fun.

"It is rare to be able to keep the original intention unchanged, and then improve your hard strength and gain a foothold in the market." Cao Yang said.

Everyone fell into silence.

Qiu Xin shook his head and couldn't help but laugh.

When chatting, I felt that Cao Yang was still very simple and seemed to be in the same way as them, but think about it carefully-

You are so singular, why did you go online earlier than anyone else in Three Kingdoms?

If I hadn't thought about becoming an MMO long ago, it wouldn't have been launched in such a short time.

The online version of Swordsman Love, which is being developed by Xishanju, has only completed the basic functions and is still far from being launched.

Hypocrisy, hypocritical.

This kid Cao Yang is a young boy who is full of lies, it's really...

Qiu Xin shook his head and said he had to accept it.

"Mr. Cao, we met today. We met very late. We were really happy to see you." Qiu Bojun said.

"So too." Cao Yang responded.

He was drinking a little confused now, completely ignoring his image, and wiped his hand on his face and grabbed his hair upwards.

In the night, by the sea, and under the sea breeze, it feels a bit confusing and handsome.

"Mr. Cao, I have a suggestion." Qiu Bojun said, "Otherwise, you will speak at tomorrow's Zhuhai Internet Summit?"

"Hey?!" Cao Yang was so scared that he shivered and almost fell off the chair.

...

It took Cao Yang half an hour to finally shirk the invitation from the general manager.

The most important thing is that he has no idea what to say tomorrow.

Today I talked to Mr. Qiu about a brief discussion, which is to briefly talk about my views on the game market and some analysis of future game directions.

But after the specific details, what will be done tomorrow's conference and why so many domestic game manufacturers have to be convened? Cao Yang is still confused until now.

You can't come here just to listen to theoretical analysis and predictions of the future game market, right?

That's too unrealistic. Everyone is a businessman. Businessmen just want to make money, and time is money.

This conference will not really share useful technology, which can ensure that participants can be ahead of others.

but……

I can't figure it out, and Cao Yang doesn't even think about it.

He did drink a little too much.

The key is that the little secretary is even more drunk than him.

In the evening, Cao Yang sent Zhuang Yurou back to his room and went back to bed himself.

...

At 10 a.m. the next morning, the first Zhuhai Internet Summit was held in the conference room on the 13th floor of the Hilton Hotel.

After Cao Yang sat down, he met many big shots in the industry:

Li Yongjin, the boss of Daewoo Consulting Company, has developed representative works by Daewoo include the "Legend of Sword and Fairy" series, the "Xuanyuan Sword" series and the "Monopoly" series.

Wang Junbo, the CEO of Zhiguan Game Company, has representative works of Zhiguan Games include "The Legend of Jin Yong", "The Legend of the Martial Arts", "The Legend of the Dragon and the Dragon", "The True Heaven and the Dragon Slaying"...

The company later incubated a martial arts "Heluo Studio" that is known as the last martial arts insistence on China.

Zhiguan is the first game developer to get the copyright of Jin Yong. At that time, Mr. Jin Yong did not expect that the game would be so profitable. It was simply a bargain when it was authorized.

However, when I went to Perfect World to go to Sohu to get the copyright of Jin Yong, it was obviously much more expensive.

Then there is Niu Kun, Didu Pixel Software Technology Co., Ltd., which is relatively new. It is the younger brother of everyone here. It was established in 2001 and released its first game "Sword and Magic Record" at the beginning of 2002.

The sword series of this company in his previous life is very famous.

Autin Technology Ju Zewen, his representative work: "The Legend of the Three Kingdoms".

...

More than half of them are game development companies in Baodao.

This year, even in China, it is still a game developer with Baodao as the main one.

However, Cao Yang glanced around and did not see Huang Hongbo, the boss of Huayi Company.

I haven't seen NetEase boss Ding Sanshi who has recently threatened to be an online game.

Shanda boss Qiao Tianchen is not among them.
