243. Favorite to snatch things from the stick hand

With such a cognition, when the three founders looked at Zhou Fangyuan again, their expressions were no longer as disapproving as before.

They discussed a lot of questions about the game with Zhou Fangyuan, and Zhou Fangyuan also said a lot of his thoughts.

Regarding World of Warcraft, he hopes that something Chinese-style will appear earlier, which is also to please Huaxia players, and don't wait for a large number of Huaxia players to lose before starting to please Huaxia users at 5.0. In fact, adding some Chinese style things is also good for Warcraft, basically in the folk of the Western world, the people have all kinds of misunderstandings about China, and at the same time have all kinds of curiosity.

There is a successful side to the media's propaganda, but there is also a failed side, especially for the people of the United States, whose own history is quite short, only two hundred years. Compared with Huaxia, which has a history of at least 5,000 years, in terms of historical heritage, it is simply not worthy of carrying shoes.

Therefore, the people of the United States actually have a strong curiosity about Huaxia, but their curiosity is only manifested in the fact that if someone is willing to take the initiative to introduce Huaxia to them, they will pay attention to it. But if you expect them to take the initiative to understand, it is unlikely, at least not in the past few years.

But adding Chinese elements to their own products is indeed a good way to attract customers, you don't see Zhou Fangyuan in the years before his rebirth, those clothing brands that are very famous in the world, don't they like to add some specious so-called Chinese elements to their clothes or shoes? In fact, in the eyes of Chinese people, these elements are very ridiculous, and no Chinese people will think that this is the representative of their own national culture. But for Lao Mi, these things are indeed representatives of the tide, and it doesn't matter whether there is culture or not, the tide is the most important.

Therefore, when these manufacturers launch similar products every year, they often attract a lot of customers to spend money to buy.

With the improvement of China's national strength, when it has a stronger and stronger sense of presence in the world, it has become a consensus in all walks of life to add some Chinese elements to its own products. Blizzard did this in his previous life, and I have to say that the version of the panda man did attract a large number of Chinese players to join, and injected a breath of vitality into the Warcraft that had begun to decline at that time.

The only fly in the ointment is that Blizzard's intentions are too clear, and anyone with a discerning eye can see that they are going to use Huaxia to make up for their own blood, and the food is not very good-looking, and it was also hacked on the Internet for a period of time at that time.

In that case, why not add some Chinese elements early?

You don't even need to add too much, according to Zhou Fangyuan's idea, as long as you add some cute and chubby figures to the two camps that get up early, you don't even need them to release tasks or get involved in the main plot, just be a wine merchant, or simply a traveling scholar.

In a simple conversation, say something specious about Pandaria, as long as you leave this little foreshadowing, you can develop it in the future.

In addition to World of Warcraft, other games Zhou Fangyuan also provided some creative ideas.

For example, in the development of Diablo III., Zhou Fangyuan proposed that it is better to continue to strengthen the social attributes, so that the game can be completely combined with Battle.net, and it is better to make a large-scale MMORPG game instead of a simple stand-alone game.

There is also the follow-up version of Interstellar and Warcraft, Zhou Fangyuan always believes that these games should not be regarded as simple stand-alone games, of course, stand-alone games are the main attributes, but they should be organically combined with Battle.net. Although Blizzard has done this so far, Zhou Fangyuan thinks they haven't done enough. We need to do more, we need to keep launching new versions, and we need to keep providing new content, so that players have the motivation to keep playing.

Now that he has said this, Zhou Fangyuan took the opportunity to put forward the idea of dedicating an e-sports competition.

In the history of the last life, even this year, the sticks will first launch the World E-sports Tournament called CG, and it will be an instant hit, and it will be the most famous e-sports tournament in the world for a long time. How much profit this contest has created for the sticks, this Zhou Fangyuan does not know. But this competition really brought a lot of fame to the sticks, which made him a little unhappy.

The nation of sticks, well, don't talk about anything else, that thing is good and likes to say that something is their own stinky problem, and Zhou Fangyuan is particularly disdainful.

Okay, aren't you good at something? Now I'll take what originally belonged to you, and treat others in the same way, and it feels cool to think about it.

And when the Blizzard Three Musketeers listened to Zhou Fangyuan's plan, they only felt that the brain of the person in front of him was simply not a human brain, how could a normal human brain have such a whimsical thinking? But if you think about it carefully, in fact, this proposal is also good.

After all, Blizzard's current games, whether interstellar or Warcraft, are highly competitive. As long as the game is balanced, who wins and who loses depends on the player's own level. In terms of balance, Blizzard has always done okay, because the balance is good, so the game is highly playable, because the game is highly playable, so Blizzard can become one of the most famous game companies in the world in just a few years after it was established.

And even the darkness is competitive, under the same level of equipment, players control their favorite profession, fight in a fixed battlefield, how to quickly match both, how to choose the right talent ratio for themselves, isn't this also a manifestation of competitiveness?

The more I thought about it, the more I felt that there was something wrong with this matter, and the eyes of the three musketeers lit up.

And Zhou Fangyuan kept telling them, don't do a word, don't just make Blizzard's own games, in fact, you can also count other games.

For example, Microsoft's Age of Empires, such as the now popular Counter-Strike, such as the more professional FIFA, in short, all the competitive games on the market can join this feast. Of course, while competitiveness must be ensured, balance must also be ensured, and few companies can do as well as Blizzard in this regard, so if you really want to do this competition, how other companies will negotiate is also a problem.

Fortunately, Blizzard is now famous, and the Three Musketeers should be able to negotiate. So the big question now is where this competition will be held.

Of course, the idea of the Three Musketeers is to hope that the competition can be put in the United States, although the competition or something is still the content that has just been discussed, but they accept it quickly and understand it quickly, so they quickly came up with their own ideas.

But Zhou Fangyuan thought that this opportunity to be named should be put on his motherland no matter what.

So he came up with his attitude, "The market in Huaxia is constantly developing, it is a huge blank market, and if you put it in Huaxia, it can attract more people to join this business, which will be of great help to the entire game industry." And I have one of the largest communication software in China, and an Internet café management system covering half of China, so I can publicize this competition in the fastest way, as long as there are enough people who pay attention, we can do this competition better and better. ”

This is the reason why Zhou Fangyuan came up with it at the beginning.

Before the Three Musketeers could argue with him, Zhou Fangyuan was impatient and slapped the table directly, "I'm the boss, I have the final say." ”

Well, he's the boss, and he can really have the final say.

I have to say here that it was said that Zhou Fangyuan and they bought all the shares of Blizzard, which is actually inaccurate. To be precise, they should have bought about 80% of Blizzard's shares. The remaining 20% is still in the hands of the Three Musketeers, even this 80%, and Zhou Fangyuan only accounts for a quarter of it.

It's about 20% of the total shares, which is as much as the Three Musketeers combined, so he is now the second largest individual shareholder of the company, and theoretically he can't suppress these three people. But don't forget, Xiao Li is his backstage, and the two of them add up to 80%, which is the right to speak. And for Blizzard, he did not give up the right to manage like Brother Xiaoma, he made it clear that the company itself would definitely intervene. It's just that the normal operation and game development are in charge of the Three Musketeers, but at the critical moment, Zhou Fangyuan certainly can't ignore everything.

After subduing the Three Musketeers, several people discussed some more details.

For example, which city will hold the first competition, which competition items will be included, and when will it be announced to the public...... The final decision of the venue for the competition was on Hong Kong Island, which can be regarded as giving Xiao Li a face, after all, he is the real major shareholder. In terms of competition items, several projects of Blizzard can be determined at present, and other projects need to be contacted by Blizzard's Three Musketeers. As for the announcement time, Zhou Fangyuan made it clear that it will be announced in the near future.

He just wants to take down this title before the stick, and he is ready to let the distant network and Blizzard issue a joint announcement, taking away the most important competition name of the stick in one fell swoop, so that they can also taste the feeling of their baby being snatched by others.

The meeting, which lasted a whole day, was held at a hotel near Blizzard, and everyone was staggered, but they didn't drink much.

After the dinner, Zhou Fangyuan and Xiao Li returned to the hotel together.

On the way, Xiao Li finally found a chance to talk to Zhou Fangyuan alone, he turned his head to look at Zhou Fangyuan a few times, and couldn't help chuckling, "Fang Yuan, I'm also a little curious now, how did you grow up with this brain? Why can you come up with so many things? It seems that you are really a business wizard." ”

"Brother Li, you really won the award, where am I a genius, I just think a little more. ”

Zhou Fangyuan smiled humbly.

Business wizard or something, he doesn't carry such a name, it's too heavy, he can't carry it. And he knows his own affairs, if he hadn't been reborn, he was afraid that he would just be an ordinary dick. Rebirth makes him different, but this is not his own ability, Zhou Fangyuan is sober in his heart.
