Rebirth of the Cyber ​​Hegemony

"Damn, local tyrant, you scared me to death."

Speaking of the 7400 million US dollars quoted by NetEase, Zhu Jun may not have given up.

Although Netease and Blizzard signed a letter of intent for cooperation.

However, the letter of intent for cooperation only has credibility and has no legal effect.

The meaning is almost the same as a verbal promise.

But it's not really a signed contract.

As long as Zhu Jun offered a higher price, Blizzard could definitely sign a contract with them.

But Zhu Jun didn't think it through for a while.

He was thinking whether to compete with Netease.

But Zhu Jun hadn't thought about it yet, but Huanyu Technology came out halfway.

"Don't you have Kyushu, how do you think of an agent?"

"We don't want to be an agent either, but World of Warcraft is too famous, and I also want to buy an insurance."

This reason makes sense.

Although Huanyu Technology is also creating a large-scale 3D game Kyushu.But it doesn't mean that if you develop a game, you will be successful.Jinshan has developed an unknown number of games, but few have been successful.

In normal times, Universal Technology might not have this kind of agency operation.

But he was facing World of Warcraft.

If you hold two large-scale 3D games in your own hands, Kyushu will have World of Warcraft even if it is not popular.

"But, the money you gave me is too much."

"If you don't give more, how can you shock you away?"

Chen Yu replied with a smile.

"Are you not afraid of losing money?"

"If more than 50 people are online at the same time, won't you make money?"

$2 million may seem like a lot though.

But online games are actually a very profitable industry.

As long as your game can reach 50 simultaneous online, you can earn back the cost.

Not only can you earn back the cost, but you can also make a lot of money.

Even if it's less than 50, or 30, you won't lose too much.

But the problem is.

Don't look at the fact that there are some games on the market with more than 100 million simultaneous online games, but there are actually only a few of them.

These are all games at the top of the pyramid, but most of them are below 10 people online at the same time.

This is the same as comparing the income of the top rich and ordinary people.

It's not normal if you've been staring at the income of the top rich.

If you don't need much agency fees, 10 people are online at the same time, and you can make a little money.

But now that 2 million US dollars has been invested, what if the simultaneous online records cannot reach 50?

There's a lot of pressure on that.

"Since you, Chen Yu, are willing to spend so much money, then you can manage it well."

Zhu Jun didn't say any more.

The agency fee of 2 million US dollars does not mean that it is impossible to make money, but it is too risky.

If one operation is not good, it will really cost a fortune.

Even for Huanyu Technology, Zhu Jun felt that they might not be 100% sure.

"Mr. Chen, is our agency fee too much?"

After hanging up the phone, Xie Zhang next to him also said.

"It's not much, how to raise the price."

Of course Chen Yu didn't want to represent World of Warcraft.

If this represents World of Warcraft, what will happen to their Kyushu?

The so-called buying an insurance is a complete nonsense.

No matter how bad Kyushu is, he will spend resources to operate it.

No matter how good World of Warcraft is, it belongs to others.

Chen Yu has always disliked the behavior of cultivating competitors.

"But our price is too high, what if we really scare away the three major operators?"

Xie Zhang is still worried.

No, Zhu Jun from Ninetowns will not consider it.

The three major game companies have already left one.

There are Shanda and Netease left, and it is estimated that they will not dare to take over.

"Don't worry, the remaining two are ruthless people."

Chen Yu was not worried at all.

Chen Tianqiao wanted to run the legend with empty gloves back then.

Not to mention that people are richer now than they were back then.

As Chen Yu said, although the agency fee of 2 million US dollars is high, if it really operates well, it may not be impossible to earn it back.

Of course, there is an element of gambling in it.

But despite saying this, Xie Zhang still felt that this operation was too dangerous: "I mean, what if, what if Chen Tianqiao and Ding Lei see through our price hike, let us act as an agent?"

"This is..."

Touching his chin, Chen Yu said, "It's possible."

This method of raising prices is not clever.

The three major game companies should be able to see Chen Yu's methods after careful consideration.

Including Zhu Jun just now, he vaguely hinted at this point.

But when you see it, you see it.

Chen Yu's plan is to let you see that you have to enter too.

As for if the three of them stopped following, Chen Yu also had a solution.

For example, if they don't want to act as an agent, then Chen Yu will really win World of Warcraft.

But Chen Yu's answer made Xie Zhang jump.

"A real proxy for World of Warcraft?"

"Why not?"

Chen Yu looked at Xie Zhang and teased him intentionally: "Xie Zhang, you are acting as an agent. I am now acting as an agent of such an amazing game for you. You should be happy."

"cocoa……"

Xie Zhang opened his mouth.

Although he felt that what Chen Yu said made sense, he always felt that something was wrong.

"Okay, don't think about it."

After patting Xie Zhang, Chen Yu would not tell Xie Zhang, even if he represented World of Warcraft, he would kill him in the cradle.

That's right.

Chen Yu didn't want to represent World of Warcraft at all.

If the price of 2 million US dollars really scared the two of them away, Chen Yu would adopt a more shameless method.

That is to make World of Warcraft stillborn.

Even if the agent came over, he would not take it to the market to operate.

You know, game companies are not qualified to require agency companies to go public.

I have money and a local tyrant, so can't I be a prodigal?

I bought your game just for our internal members to play stand-alone entertainment.

Spending 2 million US dollars and directly destroying his biggest competitor, this deal is very cost-effective.

This can not only destroy World of Warcraft.

At the same time, it can also destroy Blizzard's domestic influence.

Wait three to five years, even if Blizzard releases another game of theirs in the future, no one will care about it.

Of course, Chen Yu felt that he should not have this opportunity.

One of Chen Tianqiao and Ding Lei will win the agency right of World of Warcraft.

"Chen Yu, I'm Ding Lei."

"Mr. Ding, I know, you have always saved your number."

really.

After Huanyu Technology quoted a price of 2 million US dollars, Ding Lei called Chen Yu.

"Mr. Chen, there's no need to do this."

"President Ding, what are you talking about?"

"When are you still hiding something? Isn't the 2 million US dollars you paid just to raise the price?"

Ding Lei wanted to strangle Chen Yu to death.

He can naturally see Chen Yu's moves.

He just came to raise the price.

As for purpose.

too easy.

As long as their NetEase cash flow is pitted, they will be constrained in the future when they operate World of Warcraft.Once they can't give full play to their own strength, then the World of Warcraft they represent may be in danger.

Once there is danger, even their NetEase will be seriously injured.

After all, the agency fee of 2 million US dollars is not a small amount, even if it is NetEase, it cannot afford to hurt it.

"Mr. Ding, let's see what you said. Blizzard is a well-known company in the world, and its World of Warcraft will definitely create a miracle in domestic 3D online games. To be honest, we, Universal Technology, also want to be an agent."

"Come on, do you think I'll believe it?"

"Anyway, I quoted the price. If you don't want to be an agent, then leave it to me."

"Hmph...Chen Yu, just wait."

hang up the phone.

Ding Lei directly issued an order: "No matter what the price is, get the agency right of World of Warcraft."

Chapter 540: The first wave of confrontation with World of Warcraft

"Mr. Allen, NetEase is already very sincere."

"Sorry, Mr. Ding, the price difference between you and Huanyu Technology is too great."

"Mr. Allen, do you really think that Universal Technology wants to represent your World of Warcraft?"

Ding Yingfeng met with Blizzard Vice President Allen again.
