Chapter 860 Enemies in the Gaming Circle

In the vigorous transformation of "military to civilian" in the last century, Chengdu Aircraft Corporation was one of the companies that moved very quickly. The civilian product factory produces dry cleaning machines, furniture hardware, motorcycles, jacks... These products have not only established a lot of markets in the province, but are also sold abroad.

However, after several major restructurings, Chengdu Aircraft gradually returned to the "right path" and concentrated on its own business.

The intersection between Yuanxin and Chengfei originated three years ago. After the museum bombing incident, many units and companies wearing various vests cooperated with Yuanxin's scientific research system, especially in the fields of drones and artificial intelligence. The cooperation is particularly deep.

As Chengfei is the leader in related fields in the provincial capital, cooperation is naturally indispensable, but on weekdays we just don't communicate openly.

Not long after Wen Xiaoqian contacted Cheng Fei, when the other party learned that Su Yuanshan was going there in person, the call came back after a while, and he happily arranged the time at two o'clock in the afternoon.

Then in the morning, Su Yuanshan "learned" to drive in the closed factory area behind the workshop - just to be sure, a Dutch guy wrote a controller on the spot and restricted the switches. As a result, it ran like a tractor. Su Yuanshan was so angry.

But he also understands the mood of these people - regardless of cost, let alone the front motor, the rear motor from Siemens is an AC asynchronous motor with a power of 445 kilowatts and a maximum torque of 813N.m. If you don't control it, in addition to 3.7 seconds of acceleration from 100 meters to 100 meters, you can also easily accelerate to 300 kilometers per hour...

Everyone was worried that they wouldn't be able to get off easily once they landed, and if they really took off, they would be doomed.

"Fuck!"

When Wen Xiaoqian took Liu Xiang to the back of the workshop, Su Yuanshan was slowly reversing the car. When he saw Divo for the first time, his eyes were filled with tears.

"Would you like to come and play?"

Su Yuanshan skillfully parked the car next to Liu Xiang, pressed the shutter button, and then the car door opened upward like wings.

"Fuck!"

Liu Xiang repeated again. When he saw everyone present looking at him with a smile, regardless of his identity, he jumped down the steps in a few steps, rushed to the side of the car and touched it gently.

"Don't tell me you did this."

"What else?" Su Yuanshan patted him on the shoulder with a chuckle: "With pure electric power, it is theoretically calculated that it can reach 100 kilometers in 3.5 seconds. In reality, it is estimated to be a discount, within 4 seconds."

"F*ck!" Liu Xiang uttered fragrant words again: "When was it made? Can it be sold?"

"We'll talk about it later - let's go and talk about business first."

"Let's talk about the shovel, let's talk about the car first."

——From the beginning to the end, Liu Xiang never looked back. He had already got into the car, looking around like a country bumpkin, touching here and there.

"...You have to drive away and let Mr. Sun guide you. But now that I have added a controller, I can't run."

"good."

——So, under the guidance of Sun Xiaochuan, Liu Xiang actually started the engine in less than a minute, and then drove it around the field twice as slowly as a snail.

Since he couldn't run, Liu Xiang's interest was mostly lost. After getting out of the car with some hesitation, he finally followed Su Yuanshan to the office. Then DIVO was brought back to the workshop by engineers for testing and charging.

"I heard that this car has 600 horsepower?"

Entering the office, Liu Xiang's interest was still undiminished - in his opinion, this supercar is worth buying just for its appearance - and according to the words spread by Yuanxin, it is "good-looking".

Appearance, the rating value of appearance.

I don’t know which genius came up with the idea.

"Let's get down to business." Su Yuanshan looked at the other party with a smile.

"Uh... we have a preliminary idea." Liu Xiang took out the phone as he spoke, clicked it a few times and handed it to Su Yuanshan. At the same time, he muttered: "The phone is convenient, but the screen is still a bit small."

"We will always listen to the voices of our users." Su Yuanshan smiled slightly and said in his heart, just wait.

While talking, Su Yuanshan looked at Liu Xiang's Yidoo4 - this guy didn't follow the conventional rules and directly put a silicone cover on the phone.

——Yidoo’s double-sided glass body, in addition to improving its appearance, naturally also brings the risk of being fragile. So, as in history, mobile phone cases and mobile phone films that do not hinder operation came into being. And because it is relatively cheap, it has quickly become a popular product for online shopping in the past month.

Su Yuanshan saw all this. If he didn't trust today's express delivery after careful consideration, Su Yuanshan might have launched online sales. Although the boss of the current private logistics system is his brother-in-law, Su Yuanshan still dare not easily challenge the trust between people and dare not rashly Put products worth five to six thousand on the website.

Still have to wait for the bullet to fly.

Liu Xiang's Yidoo4 contains a memo.

"The game industry must be revitalized. In addition to the cultural communication you mentioned a long time ago, it will also be an important industrial chain in the future. According to news from Bangguo, they have designated the game industry as an information industry. To support important development goals in China... In China, although they are not opposed to it, their support is indeed given priority, and it is only listed as a competitive event."

As Liu Xiang spoke, he poured himself a glass of water: "So we have an idea, which is to work with multiple parties. In addition to WCG, we also need to organize teams, organize leagues, and actively organize excellent games to go overseas."

"Well, what then?"

"That's all."

Su Yuanshan raised his head and looked at the other party inexplicably: "No way, Old Liu, you just tell me this? Damn it, are you the president of your Game Industry Alliance or am I?"

"...You are better than me."

"Bullshit." Su Yuanshan put down his phone, thought for a while and looked at the other party sideways: "Tell me honestly, what's the matter? I don't believe you came to me for such a trivial matter."

"Holy shit, boss, this is creating an industry! Is it a trivial matter?" Liu Xiang was quite crazy: "Looking optimistically, in addition to increasing the influence of this team and league system on the gaming industry, it can also go into live broadcasting. ...Have you not always said that the speed of the Internet will reach a peak within five years? Then can webcasting be done?"

Su Yuanshan was speechless for a while: "Okay, okay, it's not a trivial matter. But isn't it a matter of course..."

"That's pretty much it." Liu Xiang took a sip of water, and when he raised his head again, he had a smile on his face: "Hey, what about... Mr. Shan, Brother Shan. Please help me."

"...I just said you can't come to me with nothing." Su Yuanshan breathed out and threw the phone to the other party - the domestic gaming environment has become much better now, except for console games. In addition to the hegemons competing against each other, PC games are also catching up. At the very least, there are several good games that enjoy a certain market and reputation in the West.

This situation is much better than Su Yuanshan's memory... And with the rise of game developers and operators such as Midstream, Giant, Xishanju, Happy Digital, Time and Space Network, Gamebar, Newbook, etc., as well as domestic games With the establishment of the industry association and the ability to keep up with Su Yuanshan's thinking on the Internet, these people's understanding of games... is actually more professional than Su Yuanshan's.

It is indeed unlikely that Liu Xiang would come to Su Yuanshan for his opinion on an industrial development vision.

"Help tell Blizzard, I want to win World of Warcraft."

Su Yuanshan was startled and immediately looked at the other party.

Liu Xiang nodded: "Mr. Shan, I still have some experience in online games. World of Warcraft will definitely be a big hit."

Su Yuanshan frowned slightly, pondered for a few seconds and then asked softly: "Why don't you go and get it yourself? Is anyone going to snatch it from you?"

"Brother Lei has been a bit fierce since he entered the online game market. He won Legend last year and Miracle this year. Not to mention making a lot of money... Now he wants to win World of Warcraft..."

"Is World of Warcraft ready to be launched?" Su Yuanshan hesitated. He remembered that WOW would be launched two years later.

"Well, it is said that it will be launched next year, but a briefing meeting has been held this year, and we plan to recruit operating agents." Liu Xiang said with a wry smile: "You know, we have finally built a bit of a market over the years, but when foreign online games come... ...It was gone in an instant.”

"..." Su Yuanshan said in his heart, be satisfied. Compared with the previous life, which was all occupied by kimchi, WOW came out and was harvested by the United States. It was not until the giants returned to the game industry and launched the free model that the game was brought back to domestic production... But That was also the beginning of the failure of domestic online games.

In today's China, with the guidance of mainland capital and professionals, the "Three Swords", and relying on IP and a strong anti-cheating alliance, the online game market that should have fallen in history has been pulled into a 50-50 split.

Moreover, several major game developers, including Liu Xiang's Midstream International, are also about to complete their own projects - next year's Spring Festival, with the release of the movie of the same name, Midstream International will also launch China's first 3D online game "Shushan".

Therefore, Liu Xiang's statement that the market has been wiped out is really an exaggeration.

"But it has nothing to do with World of Warcraft..." As Newbook's major shareholder, Yuanxin naturally knows about Newbook's performance in the past year - not only does it know, but Su Yuanshan also approves of Newbook's development in the gaming industry.

And after successively winning Legends and Miracles and making a lot of money, Newbook did not sit idle. Instead, he quickly established Spark Studio and embarked on the road of independent game development.

Therefore, for Su Yuanshan, it is indeed a good choice for World of Warcraft to continue to act as an agent for Newbook, allowing Newbook to rapidly expand while recovering its blood, and eventually become the "only" portal.

"It doesn't matter, we have lost a lot, and we need to recover our blood." Liu Xiang said with a wry smile: "And I'm not sure what will happen to our Shushan. If we lose, it will really be a long loss..."

"Besides, if Mr. Ding and I compete, Blizzard will take advantage in the end."

Su Yuanshan said bluntly: "Actually, I also have shares in Blizzard."

"...So, Mr. Shan, this matter..." Liu Xiang rubbed his hands and looked at Su Yuanshan eagerly.

Su Yuanshan was silent again. After a few seconds, he whispered: "Actually, Senior Brother Ding is a very talkative person. Why don't you two communicate in private?"

Liu Xiang shook his head: "When it comes to judgments and interests about products and markets, no matter how private the exchange is, there is no way to communicate. What's more, Mr. Ding is not a member of the Caotang Club, and he only joined the game symbolically. In industry associations, the friendship between everyone is actually not very deep.”

Su Yuanshan exhaled slowly.

He knew that Ding Lei only entered the Game Industry Association symbolically - as a member of Yuanxin's executive board, Ding Lei was obviously higher in both structure and ambition. Although he got involved in the game industry due to development constraints, he never thought about "leading" the game industry.

If he is too high-profile and active in the Game Industry Association, then with Newbook's background, market value and influence, he will easily take over the spotlight.

That is the portal that once defeated Microsoft during the Internet bubble era and stood at the peak of the world's largest market capitalization. And with the recovery of the Internet and the good development after entering the game business, Newbook's share price has returned to 80 billion US dollars.

"Like this, Lao Liu. You know... I can't help you." Su Yuanshan said seriously: "This has nothing to do with whether Newbook is a Yuanxin Holdings company, or the relationship between you and me - even if you are also Yuanxin Holdings , it is impossible for me to persuade anyone to give in."

"But I can give you a suggestion: If you all have a common judgment about World of Warcraft or other games, then you might as well sit down and talk about relationships, cakes, and cooperation, and see if you can adopt a joint operation method to let Not only does it benefit all parties, but it also allows all parties to share the risks.”

Su Yuanshan paused as he said this: "I can help you organize this round."

Liu Xiang nodded slowly after being silent for a long time, and then breathed out slowly: "Let's talk first, actually, Mr. Shan..."

"Huh?" Su Yuanshan looked at him.

"The domestic game circle is either small or big..." Liu Xiang laughed at himself: "Actually, I am quite open-minded. As long as Newbook is willing to seriously engage in games and is willing to... follow the path we have been walking and stick to our The belief that he has always insisted on, no matter how many games he wins or how he develops, it will be okay."

Although Liu Xiang said this very implicitly, Su Yuanshan still understood it.

That means that in the gaming circle, some people are somewhat dissatisfied with "outsiders" like Newbook who came in halfway and made a lot of money by catching up with the limelight of agent online games.

This also means that the happy days of peaceful development in the gaming industry are coming to an end.

"Competition is a good thing, but the bottom line must be guaranteed." Su Yuanshan looked at Liu Xiang with great seriousness: "Do you still remember the first time we talked in Du Fu's Thatched Cottage 8 years ago? We all agreed that population is the greatest advantage of our country's development. , especially for the Internet industry that mainly provides services. This is because we are naturally the largest single market in the world."

"Um."

"So, there should be rules from the beginning." Su Yuanshan was silent for a few seconds.

"Newbook is not your enemy, the small studios in Northern Europe and the United States are."
