90: Section 90

“Boss, can these designs really increase the number of users?”

“While I can understand the need for simplification in mobile designs, haven’t we simplified too much?”

“The first batch of heroes even mostly have only three skills.”

“All these designs are too different from the now-popular dota mobile game.”

In Wang Mo’s office, Zhou Qiang spoke to Wang Mo with a puzzled expression.

During the game development process, he found that Wang Mo had taken subtraction to the extreme.

The difference between Honor of Kings and dota mobile game could almost be described as heaven and earth.

But facing Zhou Qiang’s doubts, Wang Mo just smiled.

“Trust my judgment.”

“You only need to be responsible for adjusting the values of these skills; you must ensure fairness. This is the key of keys.”

“You need to remember one thing.”

“The reason dota mobile game is so popular now is that there are no competitors on the market.”

“If there were better competitors, dota mobile game wouldn’t have so many users.”

Listening to Wang Mo’s explanation,

although he still had many doubts, Zhou Qiang still nodded.

But the specific situation, he feared, would have to wait until Honor of Kings officially launched.

However,

because Wang Mo was also assisting them in developing Honor of Kings, the completion time for Honor of Kings was extremely fast.

Although only two months had passed from the beginning of Honor of Kings’ development until now,

the overall framework and most of the code for Honor of Kings were already completed.

The remaining time only required subsequent refinement and art filling.

Regarding the art, Wang Mo also found the top artists in the industry, asking them to try their best to replicate the art style of Honor of Kings from his previous life, according to his requirements.

For a period after that,

Honor of Kings was still under full development.

Time quickly passed another month.

After this month passed,

the user base of dota mobile game was still increasing crazily, even reaching the number of fifty million.

However, after reaching this number,

the user growth of dota mobile game also stagnated.

Fifty million mobile game users seemed to be the limit.

The sum of most mobile games’ daily active users before basically also stayed at the level of fifty to sixty million.

Because of this,

many game manufacturers believed that the total number of potential mobile game users in Yan Country was only fifty to sixty million, which was the upper limit for mobile game users in Yan Country.

Even Penguin Group thought so.

No game manufacturer ever believed that the inability for user numbers to continue increasing was because their games were not good enough.

And now,

it was likely that a game would soon break everyone’s perception.

Just one and a half months after dota mobile game’s open beta,

Honor of Kings officially completed development and announced across the entire network that it would conduct an open beta in half a month!

This news was not noticed by many people at first.

But as the information slowly fermented,

it wouldn’t be long before this news would ignite the entire Yan Country internet.

Meanwhile, within Penguin Group, in the mobile game department.

“Not bad.”

“It meets my expectations.”

“I’m afraid it won’t be long before dota mobile game becomes a national mobile game, and it will no longer be on the same level as any other type of mobile game.”

“The user base of dota mobile game should be able to increase by at most another ten million.”

Looking at the active user information of dota mobile game on the screen in front of him, Ma was quite satisfied.

After he finished speaking, the people next to him also smiled and said,

“There’s no need to wait anymore.”

“Currently, the number of users for dota mobile game has already far exceeded all other types of mobile games by a large margin.”

“This number has long broken the highest user record created by other mobile games.”

“Not to mention that this number is still soaring every day.”

The person speaking was Ma Liuyun, the current head of the mobile game department.

dota mobile game was also developed under his leadership.

Listening to Ma Liuyun’s voice, Ma smiled.

“Actually, I do hope that someone truly dares to challenge Penguin Group’s position in the gaming world; it would be more fun to rise by stepping on opponents’ heads.”

“The current situation, where there are no challengers, is rather dull.”

After Ma finished speaking, Ma Liuyun, who was beside him, murmured,

“Before, there were indeed many companies that were so reckless as to do this.”

“But after so many years of development, no company dares to truly confront Penguin Group head-on in the gaming field.”

After Ma Liuyun finished speaking, Ma also nodded.

“That’s true.”

“I actually miss the days when I was constantly challenged.”

Upon hearing this, Ma Liuyun smiled and said,

“Now, only a madman would do that.”

As the two were conversing,

Li Wenqiu, looking shocked, suddenly ran in from the door.

And the first words he spoke shocked both of them.

“Mr. Ma, latest news.”

“The next software type for Junzi Group has been confirmed.”

“What type of software?” Mr. Ma asked.

“It’s a game.”

Li Wenqiu swallowed.

“And it’s a mobile game!”

Hearing this,

the two instantly froze in place, with surprise in their eyes.

Ma was even more completely surprised that Wang Mo chose a mobile game as his next software after completing Pinduoduo.

But he immediately burst into laughter, his face also becoming extremely excited.

“I’ve said it before, if Wang Mo dares to venture into the gaming field, I will definitely make sure he dies without a burial place.”

After speaking, Ma looked at Li Wenqiu.

“What type of mobile game is it? Does our Penguin Group have a similar type of game?”

Just as Li Wenqiu was about to answer, Ma Liuyun, who was beside him, had already interrupted him.

“It should just be a small, niche type of mobile game that Penguin Group hasn’t gotten involved in. No matter how arrogant Wang Mo is, he wouldn’t dare to challenge our successfully launched mobile games.”
