Chapter 107 The future is in your hands

Beijing, Asian Games Village, Chaoyang District.【】

Frankly speaking, the company that can rent three floors in the Gary Building is definitely not a small company. As for Ding Yuan, the president of Tianluo, it is definitely not something that a small company can afford to hire.

Standing in front of him, Ding Yuan breathed out easily and looked at Tianren Interactive not far away diagonally across the street. Ten days ago, he was the marketing director there. But now, he was standing in a place that was absolutely unknown to others.

The pinnacle of capital that cannot be doubted! Although...under this capital, I exist like a puppet.

A secretary wearing a professional skirt walked in: "Mr. Ding, the market analysis report from S20 has arrived. Do you want to take a look?"

Ding Yuan, whose thoughts were interrupted, turned around, glanced across the secretary's body from bottom to top, frowned slightly, "Put it down and tell the operations department to prepare for the meeting."

"when?"

"Thirty minutes later, let them prepare the developer information. Well, also, notify the human resources department to attend at the same time."

…

Watching the secretary go away, Ding Yuan's hands trembled slightly with excitement. Wherever he looked, on the market distribution map on the document handed over by the secretary, several games occupying half of the circle were marked in eye-catching red.

.

"Traveling internationally? Humph!"

There is no doubt that Liu Xiang underestimated the "ambition" of this girl Cao Yutong.

It had been ten days since the investment group left for the United States. Except for a few phone calls, Cao Yutong seemed to have disappeared from the world. This made Liu Xiangpo, who had never been very fond of making phone calls to urge people, a little depressed.

In another week, the second tranche of US$50 million from venture capital should be in place. Coupled with the latest cash withdrawal and the successive withdrawals of platinum cards, the current account of Youyou seems to be full. More importantly, Liu Xiang

I’m ready to miss ZTO’s third quarter payment.

Over the past week or so, the crackdown on private servers has never stopped. Even though the game has specially opened a private server crackdown column and a reporting column similar to the list of private servers that have been cracked down on hanging zombies, private servers are still burning like wildfire, and spring breezes are blowing again.

In the final analysis, as ZTO's Cui Xisheng said, it belongs to the copyright consciousness of the Chinese people. Of course, you have spent a lot of effort to control the black and white numbers in reality and on the Internet. If it has no effect, it is definitely impossible.

Today, the total number of private servers on the market does not exceed 20 groups.

However, the impact of private servers on players is unparalleled. After this National Day, almost all players know that in addition to official servers, there are such cool "free servers"! Subconsciously

, players will complain about some settings of the official server and the excessive difficulty of the game.

Although the online situation has not suffered much losses so far, the concept of private servers has been deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, and as a developer, you must have the awareness to pay the price for this.

…

As if there was a connection, just when Liu Xiang was about to pick up the phone, Cao Yutong's overseas phone rang.

With a smile in his eyes, Liu Xiang silently calculated the time and then took the initiative to speak, "Are you planning to give me a surprise? Classmate Yutong."

However, although Cao Yutong's tone was still joking, what he said made Liu Xiang confused: "Dear Mr. Liu, I'm sorry, there is good news and bad news, which one are you willing to listen to?"

"The good news is that you know I have a poor mental capacity." Liu Xiang smiled bitterly and shook his head. "The bad news is that the acquisition is in trouble?"

"The good news is that You America Company has already negotiated and through Weiwei's relationship, we are ready to poach Microsoft!"

"What?!" Liu Xiang stood up immediately!

What a joke! Even if Liu Xiang has great abilities, he has not thought of poaching Microsoft right now! Besides... what can Microsoft do to poach?

"Stop joking, Tongtong..." Liu Xiang swallowed hard, "You know, I am easily excited."

A silvery laugh came from the other end of the phone, and it could be heard that Cao Yutong was very satisfied with Liu Xiang's performance.

"Didn't you say last time that you were preparing to enter the console market? It just so happened that a group of employees at Microsoft collided with Microsoft's ideas. It just so happened that one of Weiwei's cousins ​​was the leader of this group. So it was logical to let them

Joined the tour."

"Forgot to mention, if they don't join the game, they will probably go to Nintendo."

!Liu Xiang laughed wildly.

"Are you sure they left Microsoft because of conceptual issues? Are they members of the Xbox 360 development team?"

"Yes." Cao Yutong's cheerful voice sounded again, "It is said that their ideal console is a new generation console that can combine physical exercise and gaming! However, Microsoft, which is determined to make another breakthrough in graphics and quality, rejected their team.

"

"Okay! Stop talking, I probably already know." Liu Xiang laughed after cheering several times, "Immediately, you sign them over as the first vice president of the game! Well, by the way, you can turn the game over

Best, if you can’t abduct them, I hope you can bring them here!”

"Okay, now we are in a cafe. Sir, I only learned the news today. Also, judging from their tone, they don't seem to be interested in our tour. To be precise, they have no confidence."

Well, this is a problem. If the other party really agreed to Cao Yutong from the beginning, it would be bad.

The console market is no better than gaming, nor is it better than stand-alone consoles. As long as there is a team to develop, everything will be fine. Even in the development of consoles, in addition to technical support, it must also have the support of major hardware manufacturers. And now... Liu Xiang and

The major hardware manufacturers have no connection at all!

What's more, even if a new console is successfully developed, according to the current situation of gaming, it is still a dream to compete with Microsoft, Sony and Nintendo, which have dominated the console market for decades.

Taking a deep breath, Liu Xiang placed the pencil in his hand heavily on the desk.

"Promise them, promise them any conditions! I will fly to the United States next week. Of course, it would be best if I can take them back for a trip!"

"Also, after an hour, I will send you an EML. You will give it to them immediately after receiving it. During this hour, try your best to promote our ideas and strength. Also, do any of them know Xiao Ding, Tom, etc.

people."

"Well, tell them everything they are worried about..." Liu Xiang took a deep breath again and looked at the strong and powerful characters on the white wall opposite, "Absolutely no problem!"

Liu Xiang's fists were clenched tightly because of his excitement.

"No problem! Now that they are ready to leave Microsoft, I try my best to let them come to China for vacation as tourists. Of course, if they are willing to go to Japan, I have no choice." Cao Yutong said with a wry smile, "Although I don't

I like Japan so much.”

Just when he was about to hang up the phone, Cao Yutong seemed to suddenly remember, "By the way, the bad news is that if the acquisition encounters a little trouble, g is very willing to sell the shares, and the price is also within a reasonable range, but Tencent Shenzhen

Suddenly jumped out and blocked us with priority, Ma Huateng said that if G wants to sell Tencent shares, then they will buy them back."

"You mean, the Tencent team treats us as guns?"

"Well, I guess you need to go to Tencent headquarters in person. It will take a few days for the affairs of my branch to be settled. Do you remember mh? mh sent an email yesterday, asking if you are interested in recruiting someone.

A low-risk investment with a total investment amount of RMB 500 million.”

"MH wants to control the game?" Liu Xiang was stunned, and then laughed wildly, "Let them go to hell! Let them figure out the annual turnover of the game first!"

Through the summer computer popularization storm and the rapid increase in popularity during the National Day, this month, the sales volume brought to the game by millions of regular online users can already be expected to be 150 million! (Don’t doubt this figure...)

…

After hanging up the phone, Liu Xiang opened the file and began to think about how to use foresight to defeat this group again.

There is no doubt that the developers of Microsoft's Xbox 360 that Cao Yutong "accidentally" met this time were definitely elites who had no reputation in the industry at that time. When Cao Yutong said that their concept was a "leisure and sports" console coupled with Nintendo's

At that time, all that came to Liu Xiang's mind was the three letters w!

w, this new console that brought revolutionary changes to consoles, immediately swept the European and American markets as soon as it was launched during the Christmas period of 2006. Within a month, sales far exceeded all consoles including Xbox 360.

This also puts Nintendo, which is tied to gmeube, at the top of the console market.

Although not as good as the hardware performance

s3 and xbox360, but the concept of sports makes whefuture "the future is in your hands"
