Rebirth: It’s Like Flowing Water
Vol 2 Chapter 158: Robbery
The competitive pressure on the launch of "Legend" is not small, and it has indeed brought a lot of challenges to the little ones.
Qi Lei started as a three-stone company. From a competitive point of view, it actually went smoothly.
Because the projects that Qi Lei chooses to start with are basically in a state of no competitors.
Either he was the first to do it, only this one, no semicolon.
Such as Internet cafe management, navigation network, and systems.
Realize the current crushing situation through the recognition of later generations. Once it comes out, as long as it survives the difficulties of the initial stage, it will basically be smooth sailing.
Or, by the time he does it, he will be invincible.
For example, under the r tree.
After the May incident, there was no literary website that could be supported under the r tree, and there was no resistance to the integration and collection of web authors.
The accumulation of all of the above allowed Qi Lei to complete the negotiations with Actoz without any risk.
There are a lot of hole cards, so these domestic companies don't compete with him.
However, winning the agent of the legend is only the first step. To operate the legend and operate well is another matter.
If you follow the original time-space trajectory, in fact, Qi Lei still doesn't have to worry about it, and can basically win by lying down.
After all, this time node game is really scarce and there are no competitors.
But no one thought that the present is different. The competition can no longer be described as fierce, but fierce!
The scenes of the four games officially operating on the same day seem to have never been seen in future generations, right?
......
The Qi family and parents heard the descriptions of a few little ones, and they couldn't help worrying about them.
Can you carry it?
No, Qi Lei grinned, "Don't worry, we are already responding."
"Urgently, the technical staff of the cooperative company are invited to revise the version and add some creative elements. In fact, it is to deal with the melee on the first day of the new year."
"Moreover, we have the server advantage. In fact, if the problem is not big, let us handle it ourselves!"
Parents don't know the game industry, but after hearing Qi Lei's words, they relax and don't ask more.
However, Qi Guojun and the others as fathers all exchanged glances, as if they were exchanging something.
And Qi Guojun also whispered a few words to Guo Lihua without a trace, and then it was gone.
After finishing the supper, Guo Lihua tidied up the lunch box and waved to the little ones, "You can go and play, you don't have to worry about it here!"
Of course Qi Lei can't listen, these seven aunts and eight aunts, parents and fathers are all here, what are we going to play?
But it was Qi Yujin who reminded: "Forget it? The Ice and Snow World opens today, right? There are also New Year's Eve fireworks."
A few little ones suddenly, well, they really forgot that today is the last day of 1999 and the last day of the 20th century.
A glance at the watch reveals that there is still more than an hour left for the new millennium.
"Let's go, let's go!" Tang Chenggang urged, "Go and see the flowers, relax, don't always think about things here! Don't forget, you still have to go to school!"
"..."
Qi Lei and his friends looked at each other, but they were not very interested.
But the adults insisted again and again, "Then we can go!"
Cui Yumin instructed: "Change clothes before leaving!"
Qi Lei, they are still wearing a small suit!
In this way, everyone put on coats or down jackets and left the large conference room.
Call Zhao Wei and walk towards the river without driving.
......
It's just that a few kids don't know. Tang Chenggang called the two old brothers to him as soon as they left. The previous eye contact can finally be expressed clearly in words.
"How do you feel they didn't tell the truth?"
Just after saying something, Xu Wenliang and Yang Mingjun also gathered together in a tacit understanding.
Xu Wenliang was worried, "These children seem to report good news but not worry!"
Tang Chenggang raised his eyebrows, look, Xu Wenliang was just like he thought.
As for how to tell?
After all, they are all their own bastards, don't you understand?
Secondly, after all, it is a group of children, and they are not as capable of deceiving people.
Qi Lei is a little better, the other children are inconsistent in their speech and expressions.
For example, Tang Xiaoyi said at the beginning that the competition was fierce, but later he said that there was nothing wrong.
For another example, the subconscious expressions of several children mentioning this matter are also very solemn.
This is not the last summary "no big problem" that can be covered up.
At this time, Yang Mingjun also glanced at the legendary operations department with lights on in the distance.
"It is estimated that the difficulty is not small! Otherwise, this is a big holiday, can you do it all night? It must be very urgent."
This is indeed the case, this rush to work is not normal.
If you need to revise the version, need to improve it, if the time is not tight, just postpone the online time, do you use the big festival continuous rotation?
Tang Chenggang finally concluded: "There must be a problem!"
When Qi Guojun heard this, he was immediately anxious, "Then how to deal with it? Wait for them to come back and ask?"
But Tang Chenggang shook his head, "They want to solve it by themselves, so let's take a look first!"
There are problems, but a few children don't want to talk about it, and they don't want adults to join in, maybe they can handle it by themselves.
Besides, it would be nice to take the opportunity to see what these kids are really capable of.
After the five fathers dispersed, Tang Chenggang lowered his head and pondered for a while.
Guojun Qi didn't go by his side, and asked him, "What do you think? Did you find something wrong?"
Tang Chenggang shook his head, "I didn't see anything wrong, just...not down to earth!"
To be honest, Tang Chenggang never frowned when he encountered difficulties in his business. The son is different. My heart was scratching like a cat.
He pondered: "I will study first to see what is going on with those few competitive games."
After that, I'm going to find a computer with Internet access in the company to see if there is any news on the Internet.
Before leaving, he leaned against Wu Lianshan without a trace, "How much money do we have on the account?"
Wu Lianshan didn't think about it, "There should be more than 600 of them. Without delay, 500 can be moved."
Then he said again: "What's the matter? Get ready first?"
Tang Chenggang nodded thoughtfully, "Get ready first!"
Yang Mingjun walked away as if there was nothing wrong, but his face changed as soon as he turned around.
Tang Chenggang was right. Seeing what a few kids are capable of. This is also a kind of experience, and Yang Mingjun must support it.
But, that's how you say it, you let him watch so heartlessly?
Besides, he couldn't even look at it. The factory is still abroad!
After thinking about it for a long time, I finally made a decision.
Called Ma Yang over, "We won't go back to Russia, we'll talk about it in the next year!"
Mother Yang was startled, "Then, don't let the factory go?"
Yang Mingjun frowned again, "I can't stop it yet."
However, Yang Xiao was very touched by him today. The child was crazy about his parents. Now it seems that something has gone wrong. If he leaves, he is worthy of being a father! ?
But the factory...that was the hard work of the couple for more than ten years!
After holding back for a long time, his forehead was suffocated, and suddenly his eyes lit up, with a countermeasure, he raised his head and beckoned to Yang Mingcheng.
Yang Mingcheng came over, "What are you doing?"
Yang Mingjun happily said, "My second child! Brother has been worried about you all these years, don't blame him."
Yang Mingcheng became alert as soon as he heard it, what's your situation? If the words are so nice, then they certainly didn’t hold back their farts!
Yang Mingjun continued: "I have a good idea, and I should give you a chance to show it. Tomorrow you will book a ticket and go to Ussuriysk to see the factory. Don't you think I can manage too much? I'll leave it to you over there. Now, your sister-in-law and I are in charge of domestic affairs!"
Yang Mingcheng's domestic business is a button-adding workshop, not the plastic and polyester buttons of Yiwu in the south, but some high-end buttons exclusively for fur.
It is the process of "covering leather" and "covering gold-plated metal" with ordinary button blanks.
It can count as a small factory with just eight or nine workers.
The production capacity is not large, part of it is digested by the elder sister's fur factory, and the other part is supplied to other Chinese fur merchants in Ussuriysk.
No way, Russia's light industry is basically degraded, and the buttons are all imported from China.
This business is actually owned by Yang Mingjun, but it is in the country and is managed by Yang Mingcheng.
Now, the boss is going to "cultivate" the second child, don't worry about the button workshop, go to Ussuriysk and show me the big factory!
As a result, Yang Mingcheng became anxious when he heard it.
What a special thing! When am I stupid? You want to go back to your country, so you can spend it on me? Are you hurt?
"Boss Yang, you're still a person!? I'm not going! I have to look at Xiao'er!"
But this time even Madam Yang didn't help him, "Second, you will hold on for a while, Xiao'er is not at ease here."
Are you mad at Lao Yang? Are you worried? I am still worried!
Pointing to Boss Yang, I want to point to Sister-in-law, I dare not!
"You are waiting! You are waiting! You are waiting for me to save enough, so I am going to do it on my own, not to be squandered!"
Yang Mingjun didn't take it seriously. The second child said this eight times a year, starting at the age of eight.
"Then this thing is fixed!"
"That's right!" Yang Mingjun stretched out his hand, "Give me the car key. Anyway, you have gone abroad, so you don't need it."
Yang Mingcheng: "..."
......
Although Xu Wenliang wanted to see the abilities of a few children, it was not true.
However, he is a poor county magistrate, and he can't help at all in this matter.
There is no other way but to find the wife.
"Wife, have you known about them a long time ago? What the **** is going on, tell me."
Zhang Nan frowned, "What's the use of telling you? Don't worry, they handled it quite well."
Xu Wenliang was anxious, "Then talk about it!"
However, Zhang Nan shook his head speechlessly, and said slowly, "Don't be too mindful? It's really nothing! Besides, I don't know about them."
Xu Wenliang was dismissed suspiciously.
Before leaving, Zhang Nan spoke kind words and gently persuaded him.
However, as soon as Xu Wenliang left, Zhang Nan's expression gradually converged.
She really knows something, Qi Lei and the others are in great trouble now.
......
————————
Not to mention the adults, Qi Lei and the others left the headquarters of the Three Stones Company. When the cold wind blew at the end of December, they all lost their good mood.
Each of them looked solemn and restored to their basic state over the past two months.
Qi Lei wrapped the hat of the down jacket and moved forward with his neck curled.
Zhao Wei took out his cell phone in a tacit understanding and called Xiao Ma and Zhou Tao.
Tell them that a few people have already come out and will meet under the flood control memorial tower for a while.
After the phone call, Zhao Weicai said: "Liu Yuan called in the afternoon, and the outdoor advertisement in Shanghai is dunning money."
Everyone stagnated and became silent.
Only Qi Lei nodded and suddenly said, "Isn't there still two pre-orders for the equipment? Call Shanghai first."
After finishing speaking, he added another sentence, "I will pay the money when the dads are sent away."
Can't let Dad Wu find out.
When Zhao Wei heard this, he immediately frowned, "That money... can it move!?"
Those two sums of money are not the same as the contract deposit. Sooner or later, the deposit will be from Three Stone Company, but the equipment money is for Imagination to pass through, and it is only in the hands of Three Stone Company.
Only Wen Qi Lei said: "The problem is not big, I will ask Tang Haichao to borrow a sum."
When Wu Ning heard this, "It's better to find Uncle Geng!"
Tang Xiaoyi rushed to confess, "Or, can you confess with our father? How many can they get together."
As a result, Qi Lei refused without even thinking about it, "No!"
Wu Ning and Tang Yi, "Why not?"
Qi Lei, "You can't always trouble Uncle Geng, you still owe five million!"
"As for our dad, their side is an industry. If the capital chain is broken, something will happen."
"Oh." The two shrank their necks.
Tang Xiaoyi sighed, "Let's keep it secret! I know, maybe they bite the bullet and have to pay us."
At this time, Wu Xiaojian laughed at herself suddenly, "Fortunately, the money for the promotional video hasn't been paid yet, otherwise, Lao Wu would be exposed in the account today."
Then he said: "It's okay! Zhou Tao and over there negotiated, start the payment, and you can put it on the account for a few days."
"Hey!" The few boys sighed in a tacit understanding, "I knew this had happened, so I wouldn't have any confession. If you continue to hide it, there won't be so much trouble, right?"
However, they couldn't help this matter. They confessed to their parents that it was scheduled in October, and they have been preparing.
The most recent situation occurred half a month ago, when the hotels were all booked, and it was too late to change.
Tang Xiaoyi glanced at Qi Lei, and suddenly he was happy, "Can you not suffer and have a deep hatred? What a big deal? That's it! How can they be bullied?"
"It's a big deal, let's sell patents and websites! Fight with them to the end and see who is brave!"
Xu Xiaoqian also took Qi Lei's arm, "It's okay! With us, no one can take us."
Seeing Qi Lei looking at everyone, he barked his teeth, "I'm not afraid of things, mainly because I didn't expect them to have such a hand, so careless!"
Wu Xiaojian hurriedly said, "I blame me for this. My bad idea has offended people to death."
Tang Xiaoyi, "I am also wrong."
Xu Xiaoqian said, "Oh, don't say anything, I regret my death!"
Yang Xiao didn't blame himself, and sipped, "Fuck! Jin Yongmin is so real and dirty!"
"..."
"..."
"..."
"..."
"..."
I'm talking dead again, and I can't answer it.
But Xu Xiaoqian asked Yang Xiao, "Last night, did you eat with Kou Zhongqi?"
Xiaoer, "What's wrong?"
Xu Xiaoqian sweated coldly, "Nothing, she still called me, but fortunately I didn't go."
Just like that, I walked to the riverside without saying a word, and found that not only Xiao Ma and Zhou Tao, but also Qi Guodong, who had just gotten engaged, were there, as well as Ding Lei and Wang Zhendong.
When Qi Lei saw it, "It's a little bit already, haven't you slept yet?"
Tang Haichao shrank his neck and smiled bitterly, "Can you sleep?"
Ding Lei went straight to the subject, "Stone, you can give me the bottom line, how much money did you spend in this half month?"
Qi Lei smiled bitterly, "Not much, ten million."
The available funds on the three-stone company's account are 2 million, the contract deposit of 4 million, and the 5 million that Uncle Geng put here for emergency, now there is 1 million left.
Moreover, this one million will have to be beaten immediately.
"The number of hard broadcasting, Internet cafe posters, website promotion, and video clips in first- and second-tier cities across the country has totaled 10 million so far! In the next month, it is estimated that it will be 10 million."
"Hiss!!" Ding Lei took a cold breath, "So many? Where are those?"
Brother Xiao Ma took the conversation, "The official propaganda and operation cost of "Red Moon" is 3 million U.S. dollars. Although the treasure island game league on the "king of kings" side has not been announced, it is roughly at this level."
"The most ruthless thing is "uo", that orange is rich and rich! It has already thrown in 5 million, and it will soon be equal to their North American operating expenses."
"Huh..."..." Everyone glanced at each other, and Tang Haichao directly cursed his mother, "ctmd, let them mix up like this, it won't work if they don't follow? Is the mainland market so attractive?"
Xiao Ma smiled, "It's not that the market is attractive, but the capital is attractive!"
"The temptation of the Internet in mainland China is the same as that in North America. Whoever gets ahead can attract capital. If you win this battle, how much you invest in, add a zero return!"
Tang Haichao nodded and looked at Qi Lei solemnly.
"Stone, I won't say anything extra at this time. I have already discussed with Lao Ding, Lao Wang, and Lao Chen. We ask for money and people for money!"
"I have to push these grandsons back! Can't No. 17 East Street be so seriously injured as soon as the baby was born, right?"
These Internet tycoons came to Harbin not only to participate in Qi Guodong's engagement ceremony, but also for more important purposes.
......
————————
Tang Chenggang sat in front of the computer all night, and soon discovered some clues.
First of all, in 2000, there were no more than ten games in total that were reported to be launched.
However, there are four styles that will be launched on the first day of the Chinese New Year.
He also discovered that Sanshi's "Legend" was initially set to go online not in February, but on January 31, which was officially launched in time for the year before.
Moreover, the official service announcements have already been issued on the two major portals of Netease and Sina, and they have begun to build momentum, but then suddenly changed the set time, which became the current February 6.
As for the reason...
Because within a few days after the announcement by Three Stone, another game was scheduled for January 31.
This game is-"Red Moon".
"Legend" was changed after "Red Moon" was finalized in order to avoid "Red Moon".
After the time of "Legend" was changed, "Red Moon" was also changed and changed to-February 6th!
......
Then, Tang Chenggang also found that "Legend" was far lower than the other three games in terms of the expectations of players across the network.
In the forum of Sohu.com, there is a voting campaign dedicated to these four games that will be online at the same time.
Among the four games, choose the one you most look forward to and want to play.
Among them, the support rate of "King of Kings" is as high as 38.1%, which is the most anticipated game by players.
The second place is "uo". After all, uo's private server already has a certain mass base in China, and it is also a halo addition, with a support rate of 27.9%.
The third place is "Red Moon", a Korean national game, which has been in operation for two years and regularly occupy the top of the Korean online game list. This is not only the slogan of Actoz, but also the confidence that reaches the ears of domestic players.
Although the support rate is not as good as the first two paragraphs, it is similar, reaching 25.6%.
As for "Legend"...
It belongs to the same development company as "Red Moon", and it is a new game. It doesn't even have an internal test, so it runs directly. The gameplay and style are highly overlapped with the "Red Moon" online transmission. The support rate is only a pitiful 8.4%! !
And this 8.4% is still the result of the blessing of Three Stone Internet cafes, the promotion of Internet cafe management systems, and the vigorous efforts of Sina and NetEase.
This is because of the vigorous publicity in the past half a month, which has attracted such a pitiful little attention.
What made Tang Chenggang even more alarmed was the dazzling $4 million promotion and operating expenses of "Red Moon", as well as the promotion slogan of three games called "free for half a year".
Where is this competition?
This is a naked siege!
......
————————
Waterfront.
As it approached twelve o'clock, there was a sudden snowfall, and large swaths of snowflakes reflected the dim street lamps, gently dancing down, stroking the crowds.
Qi Lei and his party stood in a row by the river, looking at the big world of ice and snow at the heart of the river.
This year's ice and snow world is very magnificent, with the 1:1 Great Wall, and the 1:1 restoration of the iconic Macau San Bus that returned to the motherland this year.
Several people from the South also had to sigh the imagination of the Northeast people, who actually created such a miracle in the ice and snow.
In normal times, Brother Xiao Ma must go crazy, at least to experience the 100-meter-long ice slide.
Definitely ten stimuli.
But now, I am in no mood at all.
"Damn!" Xiao Ma suddenly cursed, "Lei is not dead, that grandson is a real chicken thief, why didn't he come?"
Tang Haichao smiled, "Does he dare to come? Come, I will hammer him to death first! Don't think he is the big brother!"
But Qi Lei persuaded: "Don't run on him, he is already trying his best to remedy it. The entire Xishanju almost moved here, what do you want from him?"
Wang Zhendong glared, "That's what he should, I want to hammer him!"
All the bane comes from Lei Jun, the head of Jinshan. Qi Lei's nickname for him is Rebs, which has now been changed to Lei Undead.
The process is also very simple.
While preparing the platform, No. 17 East Street is also trying its best to win over domestic game manufacturers. Of course, the most worthy of wining is Xishanju, which can be called the level ceiling of domestic game production.
Xishanju is a studio under Jinshan, and Lei Jun has the power to decide whether to join or not.
Don't think that Lei Jun looks down on people like a joke in the face of a group of high-tech industry and Internet industry bigwigs in later generations.
At this time, he, what Ding Lei, Wang Zhendong, is a younger brother in front of him.
Kingsoft's strength in games and software is at least unmatched in China.
Ordinarily, Xishanju can't find No.17 East Street, a bunch of uneasy guys, isn't this just a set of techniques?
Of course Lei Jun didn't like it either.
However, there is a killer at No.17 East Street!
Three Stone's server technology, this thing really makes Lei undead.
Because as long as the insider knows it, Three Stone's server technology can not only be used in games, it is valuable everywhere, and it is of great value.
Therefore, Lei Budie happily agreed to let Xishanju join No.17 East Street, but the condition is that the server sharing technology cannot only be used by Xishanju, and Jinshan must also be within the scope of sharing.
This request is a bit excessive, but Jinshan is a software manufacturer, and there is no business conflict with several companies. After careful consideration, Qi Lei agreed.
And Xishanju is not in vain, he has come up with a lot of valuable game production experience, as well as engine technology.
It was a great joy to be here, but unlike Ding Lei, Wang Zhendong, Xiao Ma, and other mall eagles, Lei Fudie is the old fried dough stick. That mouth, that brain, that instinct to benefit from the situation?
The platform at No. 17 East Street hasn't been built yet. Lei Fudie has already used it. In an interview, he used No. 17 East Street as a boost for his Jinshan company.
It gave a glimpse of the achievements and prospects of Kingsoft, and revealed a little about the future development direction. It will form a game research and development cooperative organization with several leading companies in the Internet industry to jointly promote the development and progress of the domestic game industry.
That's probably what I meant, maybe it's a little bit subtle, Qi Lei didn't take a closer look, nor was he in the mood to take a closer look.
Anyway, it's quite vague, and it looks like bragging.
As a result, the speaker didn't know whether it was unintentional or not, but the listener was intentional anyway.
There are only a few leading Internet companies in China, and how many do you have?
A caring person found out which ones they were, and No. 17 East Street also surfaced.
Originally it was nothing, a few happy and a few sad.
After some domestic companies learn about it, of course they hope to join for mutual benefit.
However, for some foreign game companies, especially those coveting the domestic game market, it is not a good thing.
Originally, the unbalanced game production in China was there. Only Xishanju can get it, and Xishanju has no public plans for online games.
The current domestic market is basically the world of Japanese, Korean, and Taiwanese manufacturers.
Several online games in operation, all foreign games, can fully prove this point.
In Jin Yongmin's words, the Chinese market is not worthy of making games on its own, just behave as an agency.
As a result, now that you are working together to develop the game industry, then you have developed, whose job are you grabbing?
Don't feel too hostile. This is the case in shopping malls.
Moreover, it is the golden age of capital gathering and money everywhere in the country. This piece of fat is too tempting, and this makes it impossible for domestic game makers to get upset.
You know, capital is greedy besides greed. The domestic market has been recognized by foreign manufacturers as theirs, and you are not allowed to seize it.
Do you dare to stretch out your mouth? Even if you have this idea, you have to find ways to get you.
Not to mention having an antagonism with the initiator of No. 17 East Street-Three Stone Company, and there is also the actoz who is willing to operate the legendary domestically.
Therefore, shortly after the exposure of East Street 17, Jin Yongmin of Actoz and uo's production company jointly led South Korea, Japan, Treasure Island, and several European and American game companies that are interested in entering the Chinese market. They also formed a game. Development Alliance-gp.
gameparty!
"Game party!"
It is not as ideal as No. 17 East Street, does not need to share technology, and only targets the mainland market to counter the rise of the mainland game industry.
As a result, the current drama was staged. The three giants of "Red Moon", "King of Kings" and "uo" encircled and suppressed "Legend"!
Not only against the Three Stone Company, but also against a robbery at No. 17 East Street.
And these three games, "Red Moon" South Korea, "A Thousand Kings" Treasure Island, "uo" Europe and the United States.
The three games have no crossover in terms of gameplay and style, and basic players, so even if they are listed at the same time, there is not much competition.
However, "Legend" is different, not as well-known as these three, and it crosses with the three in the audience of players.
Three fights one, just won't let you live!
The Koreans are always careful, and Jin Yongmin let Qi Lei and a group of children play upright. It is the basic operation to hold grudges, and it is not his style even if it is so.
The game was snatched by the Three Stone Company, yes, it was snatched! It's not just the right of agency, the rights of modification, adaptation, and sequel were all taken by Three Stones.
And the agency fee has been settled in one lump sum, at least in China, "Legend" and Actoz have nothing to do.
So what is he waiting for? Immediately began to fight back.
Not only does it require revenge, but 17 East Street cannot exist. Your first game will have to die!
"Oh!" Qi Lei suddenly sighed ~www.wuxiaspot.com~ and attracted everyone's attention.
I saw him looking at the flying snow in the sky, looking at the brightly lit, colorful world of ice and snow, and said solemnly:
"Why can't you get along with me?"
Everyone was about to comfort him, but he didn't finish saying, "I'm still a kid!"
"I bother!!"
When everyone rolled their eyes, why did they have the face to say it?
