Rebirth of the Thousand-Faced Movie King

"Mr. Allen..."

Chen Hui didn't know what to say.

he knows.

This is no longer a question of plug-ins or not, this is a question about philosophy and the positioning of the game.

Heroes of the Storm is not a hero-advocating game like Lualu.

Although Heroes of the Storm is also called a hero, it places more emphasis on the team and ignores individual strength.

But obviously Lua Lu is to further develop the hero's personal abilities.

These are two games with different positioning.

Which one do players prefer?

Chen Hui doesn't know.

If Chen Hui was given the choice, subconsciously he felt that Lua Lua would be more developed.

Because Chinese people like this kind of personal heroism deep in their hearts.

Especially the 1v2, 1v3, 1v4, and even 1v5 in Lualu, which greatly enhances the excitement of the game.

But Heroes of the Storm is not without its strengths.

Especially since Heroes of the Storm was developed by Blizzard.

They were able to launch heroes into the world.

They are also capable of subverting heroes.

only……

Although Allen and Blizzard's wishes are good.

In other words, their game production level is really good.

But this does not mean that cheats cannot affect their games.

As Blizzard does not particularly suppress cheats, a series of small programs have begun to provide various cheating functions.

First, penetrate the wall, then gain full vision, and then increase the attack speed...

certainly.

If everyone is the same at this time.

If everyone uses plug-ins, it actually doesn't matter.

This is like playing Legend in the previous life. Anyone who plays Legend will use plug-ins.

Your plug-in can add these cheating functions, and so can others.

So, this also reached a relative balance at some point.

But here's the thing.

Blizzard's previous approach was extremely unfriendly to players who had not recharged.

then.

This also caused.

Players who have not recharged do not use plug-ins very much.

Faced with a series of top-up players using cheats, a series of ordinary players began to lose their initial gaming experience.

"Damn it, this game can't be played anymore."

"I thought Blizzard had launched some awesome game, but I didn't expect it to be this."

"Heroes of the Storm still want to compete with Lua Lua, so get lost. I'll go back and play Lua Lua."

Although there are some similarities between Heroes of the Storm and Lua Lua, in other words, playing Lua Lua is sometimes more enjoyable.

But after all, the concept of Heroes of the Storm that emphasizes teamwork is also very attractive.

But.

No matter how attractive it is, when faced with a series of cheats, all gaming experience will be lost.

"Chen Hui, what's going on? Our number of people online at the same time has actually dropped."

Looking at the background data, Allen felt a bad feeling.

"Mr. Allen..."

Chen Hui sighed.

After a period of time, the influence of the plug-in is still apparent.

"Mr. Allen, we have to deal with the plug-in immediately."

Chen Hui said again.

"this……"

Allen felt a little dizzy.

He didn't know why this was the case.

"Chen Hui, have you investigated the data? Is it really the influence of cheats?"

“After a survey, more than 90% of users don’t play our Heroes of the Storm because of cheats.”

"But from the data, we found that those players who had recharged were not affected too much."

"This is only temporary. In the future, they will also quit our games because of cheats."

"Wait, I have to think about it."

Allen has some indecision.

Previously, he described their Blizzard philosophy to Chen Hui with great pride.

Unexpectedly, just a few days later, they would suffer the consequences of cheating.

He suddenly discovered that online games are much more complicated than stand-alone games.

After all, as long as the content of a stand-alone game is well done and it has a certain popularity, it can sell well.

But online games are different.

Online games not only require good content, but also a series of operations.

And in this series of operations, a series of things that you can't even imagine will happen one after another.

"Chen Hui, continue watching for two more days."

After communicating with Mike at the headquarters, Allen was still undecided.

This operation was beyond Allen's understanding.

He had some fantasies about cheating.

He still felt that plug-ins did not have such a big impact.

But.

A few days later, Allen went crazy.

because.

In his discovery.

These plug-ins not only developed a series of cheating functions, but also launched the function of purchasing skins for free.

All right.

In fact, this is not a purchase, because there is no real purchase on the platform.

Their free purchase is actually a skin simulated by a plug-in.

This skin can be seen by oneself, but not by the other party.

In other words, the skin purchased by this plug-in can only be used by yourself.

Although this does not appear to be an actual skin purchase, it cannot be seen by other players on the other side of the computer.

But it doesn't matter.

When you play games by yourself, can you just see it?

Since I can see it, why do I need to buy another skin?

then.

Next...Alan found out.

The emergence of these cheats not only affects the number of people online at the same time, but also affects their income.

Originally, many people would buy a series of skins, but now... I'm sorry, they are no longer interested.

Do you think it's just this?

NO.

These plug-ins can not only buy skins for free, but they can also create a hero image without skins or clothes.

If Heroes of the Storm is full of male heroes, then shirtlessness is okay.

Many heroes are muscular men. They feel more powerful when they go into battle shirtless, and they feel better when played.

But the problem is that there are many female heroes in it.

Moreover, after the emergence of this function, the probability of using heroines has increased dozens of times.

It won’t work unless it is doubled dozens of times.

Although this feature is eye-catching, I have to say that it is really attractive.

"Brothers, let's play Heroes of the Storm."

"What's so fun about Heroes of the Storm?"

"You will know after playing it. By the way, you must use this auxiliary applet when playing Heroes of the Storm."

Many people are crazy about recommending Heroes of the Storm.

As soon as it was recommended, the number of people online at the same time in Heroes of the Storm instantly exceeded 400,000.

"I'll go, is that okay?"

Allen was simply stunned.

He didn't expect that these plug-ins could have such an effect.

However, just as Allen was surprised and delighted, the superiors rushed to Blizzard China immediately.

"Mr. Allen, we want you to deal with this incident immediately."

"Leaders, this is not what we did."

"But this is your game."

"We were wronged too."

"Then it depends on your work efficiency. We don't want these messy pictures to appear again."

"us……"

At this moment, Allen was going crazy.

How perverted do you think these cheaters are?

If you talk about developing some cheating functions, Allen can understand.

But you damn thing, what do you want to do by letting all these heroes not wear heroes?

Damn it.

Although seeing crazy players keep coming in, Allen's heart was bleeding right now.

If they themselves are not dead, they will be killed by those who make plug-ins.

"Chen Hui, immediately block the accounts of half of the users who use cheats, including those who recharge."

Although Allen has only average experience in operating online games, he has a clear understanding of the politics above.

Although a series of other competitors use various means to defeat them, they may not necessarily die.

But if the higher-ups try to mess with you, you will definitely die.

And now there is a very suitable reason from above.

Heroes of the Storm, which was originally a good game, has now turned into a sex game.

Although Blizzard has no idea in this regard.

However, they do not crack down on the numerous cheats, which also contributes to the harm caused by pornography.

Although yesterday the superiors did not specifically say what measures would be taken against them in Blizzard China.

But obviously.

In one sentence, Blizzard China is nothing.

"Mr. Allen, sealing half of it may not solve the problem."

Chen Hui was extremely serious.

He sees the influence from above more clearly than Allen in the country.

Although blocking half of them can scare many players, there are still many players who will continue to use cheats.

Unless a perfect game environment is created like Huanyu Technology.

But this didn't happen overnight.

"Chen Hui, what do you mean?"

"Looking at what the boss means, if we don't take effective measures, we may..."

Chen Hui did not continue.

But Allen knew the connection.

"Is there no other way?"

"In the past, we could have blocked accounts in batches, but now it's too late."

Chen Hui also sighed.

Although he had persuaded Allen before, he was not firm at the same time.

And he was also thinking that after the cheats became more destructive, it would not be too late for them to be strict.

But Chen Hui has been making games for so long, and he never expected that this plug-in could be played like this.

It was originally just a cheating plug-in, but now it turned their Heroes of the Storm into a so-called pornographic game.

If Blizzard doesn't deal with it soon, Heroes of the Storm is pretty much the end of it.

Of course, even so, Heroes of the Storm suffered a big loss after this incident.

"Okay, Chen Hui, you handle this matter."

"By the way, I have decided that you will be responsible for the operations of Heroes of the Storm for some time to come."

"Mr. Allen, what are you doing?"

Chen Hui was extremely excited.

"What, you don't believe it?"

Allen smiled and said: "Leave professional things to professionals. This cheating incident has taught me a vivid lesson. From now on, Heroes of the Storm will depend on you."

"Yes, Mr. Allen."

Chen Hui nodded loudly and excitedly.

He had waited too long for this day.

"Mr. Allen, don't worry, I won't let you down."

After speaking solemnly to Allen, Chen Hui returned to his office.

have to say.

Chen Hui's abilities are pretty good.

After this cheating incident, although Heroes of the Storm banned a large number of accounts, the number of people online at the same time dropped to half of the original number, only 200,000. But Heroes of the Storm still has potential, and the windows market is still huge. Under Chen Hui's management, Heroes of the Storm went online from the original 200,000 to 400,000 again.

"Chen Hui, well done."

In the office, looking at the data that had recovered, Allen breathed a sigh of relief: "Fortunately, you are here, otherwise, our Heroes of the Storm might be doomed."

"This is my duty."

"It's all my fault. If it weren't for me, our number of people online at the same time would have exceeded 600,000. By the way, how many people are online at the same time in Huanyu Technology's League of Legends now?"

"2.5 million."

"I……"

Allen vomited blood.

Originally, he had great confidence in catching up with the League of Legends.

Although now Allen does not think that their Heroes of the Storm is worse than League of Legends.

But comparing the number of 400,000 to the number of 2.5 million, there is no comparison at all.

"Chen Hui, do you think we can surpass Huanyu Technology's League of Legends?"

"It's hard."

Chen Hui told the truth.

"Is it because of the last cheating incident?"

The influence of cheating incidents is far from over.

Heroes of the Storm, which has been labeled as a pornographic game, inherently limits the number of people it can play online.

Although he can still continue to maintain certain growth.

But this growth is limited.

When he reaches a certain number, he will inevitably be unable to rise.

"not completely."

Chen Hui shook his head, and then sighed: "Huanyu Technology is very, very strong."

"Huanyu Technology."

Allen also read the name of Huanyu Technology.

However, Chen Hui continued: "Mr. Allen, in fact, we don't have to compete with Huanyu Technology. China's online game market is very big. Even if we cannot surpass Huanyu Technology, we can still do well in this market." Good. Just like NetEase, Ninetowns, Shanda. Maybe Heroes of the Storm cannot be compared with League of Legends for the time being, but Blizzard will not only have this one game in the future."

"Chen Hui, it seems I made no mistake in poaching you."

Allen looked at Chen Hui with relief: "You are right, we don't have to compete with Huanyu Technology for a temporary reputation. So what if Heroes of the Storm loses, there is still a long way to go. By the way, next month I will Maybe I’m going back to the United States.”

"Go back to the United States?"

"Yes."

Allen nodded: "You also know that although I came to China with great passion, in fact, what I am best at is making games, not operations. The people who know the most about China have to be responsible for it. I am dumbfounded. Not only does it have no effect here, but it will also restrict Blizzard’s development.”

"Do you have a candidate for the position of president of China region?"

"Chen Hui, you are familiar with this area of ​​China. Can you recommend one?"

"I think we can poach people from Huanyu Technology."

"Huanyu Technology?"

"Why do you think of Huanyu Technology? They are our competitors."

"Huanyu Technology is the leader in the industry. At the same time, we learned many series of operating concepts from Huanyu Technology. If possible, poaching a middle-level and senior management from Huanyu Technology will be of great help to us at Blizzard."

"Is that what you think?"

"Yes."

Chen Hui said.

"Chen Hui, you are fine."

Allen shook his head: "I have submitted your name to the headquarters, do your best."

…

"Talent, who would want those heroes to wear no clothes?"

Chen Yu was stunned to see such an eye-catching feature appearing.

Although Huanyu Technology was the first auxiliary applet launcher in Heroes of the Storm, they did not engage in cheats later.

However, although Huanyu Technology did not engage in plug-ins later, some other people promoted the Heroes of the Storm plug-ins.

No, he even thought of the function of not wearing clothes. This was an eye-opener for Chen Yu.

At that time, Chen Yu was very interested and tried a few games, and found it very enjoyable for a while.

Just a pity.

Because of this feature, Blizzard immediately changed its attitude towards plug-ins.

At the same time, the higher authorities also focused on this area, and this function also disappeared.

Chen Yu couldn't try this function again if he wanted to, so he could only take screenshots and save a few as souvenirs.

"Hey, Zou Tao, why are you laughing? It can't be you."

"How could it be me? We don't do cheats anymore."

"Then why are you laughing? Do you know who did it?"

"It was Xie Zhang who did it."

Zou Tao couldn't help laughing again.

"Xie Zhang made a plug-in?"
