"Boss, can you see my information?"

"1."

"What about the rest?"

A large number of 1's suddenly appeared in the group.

This is Wang Jing’s functional test of the social software Xingchat that comes with the Xingyuan application platform.

According to Luo Fan, Wang Jing installed a face-to-face group chat function on Star Chat, which allows group chats to be held anytime and anywhere. From now on, having six groups in a 4-person girls' dormitory is no longer a dream.

After the test, Cao Shuai immediately approached Wang Jing: "Brother Wang, don't you think the group function is a little monotonous? The chat interface is too simple, right?"

"This is what the boss means. He said that the chat room on the Xingyuan application platform is just a small room for users to communicate with each other, similar to yy. There is no need to make it too complicated. The simpler, the better."

"A chat room between players? Isn't that similar to the built-in social system in the game?" Cao Shuai asked with a frown.

"It seems that it should be so at present."

"What's the point of doing this? I thought the company wanted to compete with Penguin to seize the social software market!"

"How is that possible! Who can touch a penguin?" Wang Jing rolled his eyes and said.

"Why is it impossible? Wouldn't Weibo win?"

Wang Jing shook his head and said nothing.

He believes that Weibo's success is purely due to good luck, and it would be too difficult to replicate Weibo's success.

In the next few days, people from the company accompanied Wang Jing to conduct various tests.

Luo Fan thought of some classic emoticons from later generations. He asked Li Jingyi to help her create the panda head, the singer's "Ah Shit La You" and so on, and then added them to the group chat function.

Thanks to everyone's efforts, the functions of Star Chat have become more and more perfect.

"Brother Wang, what's going on with the rankings?" Luo Fan asked.

"It's basically done."

"The StarChat test is almost done, so there is no problem with the server? Don't let too many people register accounts by then, causing data to be lost."

"Don't worry, boss, there's absolutely no problem."

"Then prepare for the first update of the Xingyuan application platform! Let's schedule it for next Tuesday! From now on, our company's game and application updates will be done on Tuesday."

Wang Dingding nodded.

“If we update the announcement, we’ll put it on Sunday night!”

"Okay boss."

Before I knew it, it was Sunday.

Wang Jing made the announcement in the background.

"Hello all users of Xingyuan Application Platform, we will carry out the first maintenance update of Xingyuan Application Platform on March 9, 2010. This update will be equipped with three new functions.

First: User registration.

Second: Game rankings.

Third: social games.

Below is a detailed description of the three functions..."

This announcement from Xingyuan Application Platform caused an uproar on the Internet.

User registration and game socialization did not attract much attention.

But the vast majority of users are attracted by the game ranking function.

Ranking 4 to 10 in the city's rankings will receive a bonus of 100 for each settlement, 200 for the third, 300 for the second, and 500 for the first.

The top ten at the provincial level start with 500, the 4th to 10th place all have 500, the third place has 600, the second place has 700, and the first place has 1,000.

For the national rankings, the rewards for the 51st to 100th place will be cancelled, and the rewards will be given out from the 50th place. The 21st to 50th place will all be 1000, the 11th to 20th will be 2000, and the 4th to 10th will be 3000.

The top three in the national rankings, third place 8888, second place, first place.

The rankings are settled every three months, with a one-month "adjustment period" in between, and the rankings are settled three times a year.

After reading the rules of the game rankings, public opinion was in an uproar.

"Holy shit, is Xingyuan crazy? Just play the game for free and pay for it?"

"Indeed, this is the first time I've heard of mobile games giving out money."

"Xingyuan won't go bankrupt if he does this, right?"

"How could it possibly go bankrupt! Xingyuan Technology Co., Ltd. is obviously trying to attract more users to register and increase user stickiness. This is a normal business method."

"Then I haven't seen any other companies pay players!"

"One thing to say, one thing to say, it's true."

.......

The next day, the front pages of Weibo, Tieba, and major media were all related to the ranking of Xingyuan Application Platform. With this wave of free advertising, more and more people knew about Xingyuan Application Platform.

Many people saw that they could earn money by playing games, so they went directly to the official website to download the Xingyuan application platform.

"Boss, today the number of downloads of our platform has exceeded one million, which is more than the first day it was launched. Now our total installed users have exceeded 8 million." Wang Jing ran over and said excitedly.

"Brother Wang, calm down, where are you? When the first rankings were settled, players really got the money. That's when our number of registrations skyrocketed.

Most of the people who come in now are just joining in the fun, and not many of them can really stay."

Wang Jingding nodded and said nothing more.

At 12 o'clock in the morning, Wang Jing shut down the server. After two hours of simple maintenance, at 2 o'clock in the morning, Wang Jing released version 2.0 of the Xingyuan application platform, and then couldn't bear it and went to sleep.

Luo Fan came to the company at 9 o'clock in the morning and opened the background data immediately.

From 2 o'clock in the morning to now, a total of 7 hours, the number of registered users of the Xingyuan application platform has exceeded 5 million.

These 5 million people can only register after updating the Xingyuan application platform version 2.0, and this number is still rising.

At the same time, Star Chat has been installed by hundreds of thousands of users.

Xingyuan Technology Co., Ltd. positions Star Chat as a game social network, so the first people to try it are some players who play games.

Since the accounts of Star Chat and Xingyuan application platform are common, no additional registration is required, which is very convenient for users, so some users are willing to try Star Chat.

Users who tried these experiments quickly discovered that compared to Penguin, this software takes up almost no memory, and the chat interface is also very simple. It is also equipped with a function called face-to-face group creation, which can bring several players together anytime and anywhere.
