Giant of the times
Chapter 424 If I have 10 million, I can buy a house...
Wemade Entertainment spent millions of dollars to promote "Legend". It never thought that this game was not popular with European and American players at all, and it suffered heavy losses.
And cheats appeared in China, causing many Chinese players to leave with hatred.
On December 5th, something happened that made Shanda and Wemade Entertainment so angry that they vomited blood. A "private server" actually appeared on the Internet.
I don’t know when it was, but the "Legend" server program was leaked, and soon someone used it to develop a "private server."
As for what is a private server? Private servers are network servers set up after illegally obtaining server-side installation programs without the authorization of the copyright owner. They are essentially online piracy, and the result of piracy is naturally a direct diversion of the operators' profits.
Private servers are very simple. Many Internet cafes can set up private servers on their own LAN and charge a fee. This has nothing to do with Shanda.
The private server can be set according to your own requirements, the equipment explosion rate can be set to an absurdly high level, and the attack power can kill the final BOSS with one strike. Usually, when playing on the official official server, you need to spend several hundred yuan to get to the basic level. However, in the private server, you may become an advanced player as soon as you go online. In addition, the consumption cost of the private server is much cheaper than the official server, and it is even free. , so it is liked by many players.
As long as the first private server appears on the Internet, the second and third private servers will appear next... The private server is like a scourge that cannot be stopped. Especially in the current environment in China, even if you go to court to sue them, it will be of no use. The court will not accept any appeal you make after causing losses in the private server.
At the end of 2001, due to the strong intrusion of private servers and plug-ins, "Legend"'s online players dropped severely, from hundreds of thousands of online players to less than 100,000. It will continue to drop in the future until the game is useless and every region has It has become a "ghost town" without people!
…
Los Angeles, Beverly Hills.
The wind was freezing outside, the snow was falling heavily, and the earth was covered in silver.
In front of the European-style fireplace in the villa, an extremely expensive Persian carpet was spread on the floor. Li Zetian sat on the floor, warming himself by the fire and reading a book. During this Christmas period, I have no travel plans, so it’s quite nice to stay at home.
"Legend" is about to collapse, and Li Zetian is very happy.
Frankly speaking, the influence of "Legend" is too great and has seriously impacted Flamingo Company's position in the Chinese game market.
Other companies saw that Shanda was making so much money by introducing Korean games, and they all followed suit. On the one hand, this increased the pressure on Flamingo Company, and on the other hand, it made Korean game developers develop and grow.
Therefore, it must be suppressed!
"Dad, what are you reading?!" Youran walked up, hugged Li Zetian's arm, and asked curiously. Nowadays, Xiao Youran has grown up, 170cm tall, slim, fair and beautiful. She has completely inherited Yu Jingqiu's beauty, and she has a look that will captivate the country. Now studying at Harvard University.
Li Zetian smiled and said: "An online novel has been published now. It's quite interesting. It's called "The First Intimate Contact"."
"Online novels..." Youran said nonchalantly. It was obvious that she was not interested in online novels.
Li Zetian smiled and said: "This novel is very powerful. The language is funny and the story is touching. It is popular on the Chinese Internet. It is the first best-selling novel on the Internet. Well, it can be said that "First Intimate Contact" started Internet novels. The first of its kind!"
After hearing this, Li Youran was shocked and couldn't help but be a little interested in "The First Intimate Contact". Then he returned to his room, opened his laptop, and searched for "First Intimate Contact" on the Internet.
"The protagonist, the scoundrel Cai? What kind of name did he choose? It doesn't sound good at all~"
Leisurely murmured and continued reading. Unknowingly, she was attracted by the stories in the novel. Some interesting sentences made her couldn't help but read out: "If I have 10 million, I can buy a house." House. Do I have 10 million? No. So I still don’t have a house. If I have wings, I can fly. Do I have wings? No. So I can’t fly. If all the water in the Pacific Ocean is taken out, It can't extinguish the flame of my love for you. Can you pour out all the water in the Pacific Ocean? No. So I don't love you."
"I danced gently among the crowd.
You cast a strange look at me.
Be surprised or appreciate it.
It never messed up my dance steps.
Because what makes me fly is not your gaze.
But my young heart. "
Li Youran was reading so much that she forgot about food and sleep, and the servants couldn't even ask her to have dinner, until Yu Jingqiu took action in person.
Li Youran didn't have time to have dinner, he was focused on his book. After hurriedly finishing his dinner, Li Youran immediately returned to his room and continued reading. At first, I was very happy to see the ruffian Cai and Qingwu Feiyang starting to date, but when I saw later, Qingwu Feiyang left without saying goodbye and passed away due to illness, Li Youran immediately burst into tears.
"What are you writing? The writing was so good before, so why did you write the heroine to death in the end? It's so cruel~" Youran complained while wiping her tears.
Early the next morning, Li Youran came to Li Zetian "aggressively" and said, "Dad, I'm in a bad mood now!!"
"What's wrong, baby girl?" Li Zetian asked in surprise.
"Humph, why are you asking? What kind of novels did you recommend to me? I cried all night!" Li Youran complained, puffing up his cheeks.
Li Zetian shook his head and was speechless. He gently touched her long hair and comforted her: "Okay, okay, good daughter, daddy was wrong, okay. Come on, come on, let's sit down and have breakfast first." , Li Zetian pulled out a chair for her to sit down, put a fried dough stick on the plate, and poured a bowl of rice porridge.
After comforting his daughter, Li Zetian picked up the newspaper and looked at the news today as usual. This habit has been developed for a long time.
Due to the emergence of "Legend" and Shanda Company, Li Zetian suddenly thought of the Qidian website and online novels. Li Zetian had read the book "The First Intimate Contact" once in his previous life, and he was so moved in his memory. It was a rare and good book, so he specially asked someone to mail a copy of "The First Intimate Contact" come over. Of course, you can read it on a computer, but Li Zetian prefers to read it with paper books.
The heavy snow outside the house has stopped, and four or five servants are clearing the snow on the ground. After Li Zetian read the newspaper, he walked outside and blew in the cold air.
"Many novel websites have appeared in China, such as Fantasy Sword Book Alliance, Long Kong, Under the Banyan Tree, etc., but it seems that the most famous Qidian website in the previous life has not yet been established..."
Even though Li Zetian doesn’t read many online novels, he still knows the name of Qidian Chinese website. The novel website platform is a very important IP incubator and should be in your own hands!
