Super Game Empire

Facing Robert's doubts and inquiries, Stern turned his face sideways and whispered with a smile: "I'm sorry Robert, this is a collective decision of the NBA's top brass..."

Robert was unwilling to ask harshly: "Didn't you say that it would not affect EA's interests?"

Stern showed a smile to the public, then turned sideways and quickly put away his smile, saying quickly: "Of course it doesn't matter, you are not on the same platform! Robert, there are so many people here, you have to pay attention to your image, don't do it

Smashed the signing party!"

Robert was suppressed by the big hat and did not dare to act rashly for a moment. His suppressed anger made his face even paler, with white and red faces alternating, a mixture of frustration and anger.

He looked at Yang Yun and found that the other person still looked calm and calm. He just looked at him calmly. He didn't look anxious or proud at all. He seemed to be saying, "Whatever deserves it is mine. Whoever deserves it is mine."

You can’t take away the glory that belongs to me.”

"Young bastard...he actually convinced so many people at the top of the NBA! That guy Matt is also a bastard, what a piece of shit congressman, didn't he agree to an exclusive license? Stern is even more of a bastard, Longton has the license, EA's

How can our interests not be affected? Isn’t this lying with open eyes!”

Robert clenched his fists and glared at Yang Yun and Stern. He was about to run away. If today's occasion wasn't so special, he would have immediately turned his back on the spot and asked what Stern and Yang Yun had done.

What!

"Mr. President, is it convenient to disclose the specific content of the cooperation?" A reporter in the audience began to ask, "There are many large-scale game production companies in the world, why only choose EA and Longteng?"

Stern raised his eyebrows and said with a smile: "EA is a first-class PC game manufacturer. They also cooperate with Sony's PS platform, and Longteng's SS console is the game platform with the largest market share in the TV industry.

By cooperating with them, the NBA can ensure comprehensive and blind coverage in the global gaming industry. This is the result of our triple win! As for other game production companies, in fact, we do not limit their entry threshold. For example, Nintendo,

We welcome you too!”

"Dog/shit!" Robert cursed in his mind. Do you want to welcome Nintendo?

"Let me go... you Stern, can you stand and talk without hurting your back? Do you want the whole world to be my enemy, Long Teng?" Yang Yun also gave Stern a bad review in his heart. This old guy is too high-sounding.

, they take all the good things, and Yang Yundun is responsible for all the bad guys.

Stern is very familiar with what he said and said it very smoothly. For the NBA, sports and games do not conflict anyway. It is best to add Nintendo, NEC, Apple, Microsoft, IBM, Motorola, etc. to the supplier catalog.

Only then did he really cover the entire field of electronic games, with all software and hardware available, all contributing to his NBA promotion.

For EA, it sounds like there will be no impact at all. PCs have EA, TV and Sony PS. Players like to play NBA games and are willing to spend money to buy game discs. It will always be theirs and they will have to buy it sooner or later.

Longteng is responsible for developing games for the SS platform. Does this conflict with PC and PS? Stern just seized this point and asked Robert. What he meant was: "Longteng has not developed a PS version, nor a PC version. You guys have not developed a PS version, nor a PC version."

How will EA be affected?"

Of course Robert would protest: "Idiot, of course there is a conflict! If there is an SS version of the NBA game, who would buy the PS and PC versions? And who said Longteng doesn't make PC games itself? Longteng has always wanted to develop into PC games, why?

Maybe it won’t affect our EA’s interests?”

But Robert could only say this from his heart. If he dared to say it openly, the first person who would not spare him would be Sony himself, and he would also be laughed at by everyone. He would not even dare to compete.

I am scared of the name Long Teng. I must be scared out of my wits by Long Teng!

And Yang Yun will definitely reply: "We at Longteng don't mind fair competition, but if you EA and Sony are afraid, it would be better to exit as soon as possible, so as not to waste huge R&D funds, waste time, and not even get back the capital."

!Wash and go to bed early!”

If it really comes to this point, EA won't have to live anymore. It's better to just close down and go out of business. Why compete?

Anyway, it’s a mess again. NBA, EA, Longteng, Sony, these aspects are entangled again, and it’s another tough battle to fight!

Reporters in the audience took turns asking about contract-related issues. As long as it didn't involve details, Stern would reveal one or two.

Yang Yun and Robert did not speak. They occasionally looked at each other. Ten minutes ago, the two of them were just sparks of a small struggle. Now they have turned into raging flames, becoming more powerful. Either you die or I am.

degree of death.

Robert quickly thought about countermeasures in his mind. EA has not yet signed a contract with the NBA, and Stern's actions are obviously inconsistent with EA's interests. He must re-discuss countermeasures with the EA board of directors.

But he did not act rashly, because Stern's attitude made him understand one thing. Stern deliberately did not leave EA any time to react, trying to force him to sign the contract in front of all the media, so that he would not be able to do so in the future.

No regrets, everything is subject to the contract.

If he made a request and said that the contract was suspended and he wanted to go back to discuss it again, or simply turned over the table and turned against him directly, then Stern would sign the contract with Longteng without hesitation and abandon EA without any discussion.

"What trick did Long Teng use to make Stern willing to invest so much money and take the risk of offending our EA to implement this? Is there any special reason for this?" Robert did not dare to act rashly.

Because he thought of this.

He was not the only one who thought of this. The only professional organization at the scene that favored sports games asked: "Why did the NBA choose Longteng to cooperate? Is there any special intention? Can Longteng's joining affect 1.2 billion Chinese people?"

Let them enjoy watching NBA games, let them enjoy playing NBA games?”

This is a good opportunity to promote himself. Yang Yun smiled and said: "I believe that after Longteng joins, not only 1.2 billion Chinese people will pay attention to the NBA, but also Chinese gamers will not be the only ones playing NBA games. Longteng games are popular in other countries around the world.

With 400 million supporters, we are preparing to launch World-Cyber-Games, turning it into a world-class e-sports event, and making NBA games a competitive competition. I think this should be the best way to promote the NBA in our game industry, right?

"

Wow...

This statement stirred up a lot of discussion, and many people shook their heads in disbelief in the conference room.

In basketball, everyone has only heard of the Olympic Games, World Championships, NBA, and European Basketball League. Now there is a WCG basketball game competition. From Yang Yun’s tone, he plans to make it the Olympic Games in the video game industry.

, this makes people feel novel, but at the same time, they can't help but despise Yang Yun.

"Mr. Yang, is your WCG planned to be a four-year Olympic Games model?"

"No, it is held once a year! E-sports technology is changing with each passing day. Four years is too long. It is most suitable to hold it once a year. In fact, it can be understood as a game league similar to sports."

"Can playing games be regarded as a competitive sport? I'm afraid there is no such regulation in any country in the world, right?"

"No one has stipulated it now, but it does not mean that no country will list e-sports as a national sport in the future. The promotion of WCG cannot be accepted by the whole world in a day or two. It has taken 50 years for the NBA to develop to the present. We Longteng

As long as it doesn’t go bankrupt, what’s the difficulty in holding it for 50 years?”

This statement can be understood in many ways. For Yang Yun, even if he dies and is buried in his 70s or 80s, as long as the competitive spirit does not die and Longteng does not go bankrupt, WCG can continue forever and make China forever the core of world electronic game competition.

It is not impossible to build a century-old brand.

But other people don't understand it this way. They only see the 50 years that the NBA has existed, but they can't believe the 50 years in the future that WCG won't see, so most people express doubts.

"Will WCG create a global video game competition? Isn't this too exaggerated? You are planning to let a group of children hold controllers and stand in front of the TV to compete, and then the winner will win this kind of Olympic Games

A gold medal? Isn’t it a bit childish?”

This last question immediately aroused the resonance of the whole audience. People thought it was unbelievable that a few children could be ranked first in the world by playing video games? The first place in the world would be too devoid of gold. This is right.

The title of world number one is disrespectful and insulting!

Yang Yun knows very well that people will have a long adaptation period before accepting new things.

Especially now that the IT world is developing slowly. In the Internet age, which has just entered the experimental stage, electronic games and IT software have not yet seen the effect of being widely circulated. Many people are still stuck in the old thinking, thinking that illusory things like games have always been

It cannot be compared with various sports competitions in the real world.

Those who create an era will definitely be questioned, and the era will slowly change the minds of these people, so Yang Yun does not need to argue at all. Yang Yun answered this question like this.

"I have no intention to evaluate the quality of video game competition, but since I am engaged in this industry, I will love this industry. After spending my whole life, I will work hard to promote video games around the world. People living in this world cannot

How can you reflect your own value through hard work? I guarantee that the NBA game produced by Longteng Company will definitely appear in the first WCG. As for the global influence of WCG, everyone can wait and see!"
