620. Net Net Alliance
This meeting is actually a mobilization meeting.
The companies that have been invited are basically the number one game companies in China, and there are stand-alone online games. Stand-alone hates piracy, online games are afraid of plug-ins, this is the current situation in the game industry, basically there are people in all aspects who can rob you of your profits, and even bad money can drive out good money, relying on piracy to squeeze the genuine version to death, this situation has not never happened. It's hard to expect the state to really manage it with heavy hands!
It's not that the state doesn't want to take care of it, it's not that it doesn't want to take care of it, but there are many aspects of the problem involved, and it can't be explained clearly by a pirate. Fortunately, Zhou Fangyuan's demands are not so broad, they just hope that the country can strive to do some regulation and protection of the game industry, first of all, pirated discs on the market, this is honestly not easy to get, because the scope is too wide, nationwide, which city has sold discs, no one knows where they come from, and it is very harmful. But then again, game manufacturers that can hold on to the present, especially those who do stand-alone, naturally have their own set of methods, although the income will definitely be hit hard, but there is no urgent need at present.
But online game companies are different, because the communication ability is stronger, so once the online game company is invaded by the plug-in, it can spread to the entire player group almost overnight, and now there are games that have fallen because of the plug-in, other game companies are still struggling, the market has become very chaotic and disorderly, we hope that the relevant departments of the state can catch this matter, and it is best to cooperate with the police to knock down a number of illegal groups that make plug-ins, and give these game companies a more stable living environment. After all, everyone is taxed, and compared with those plug-in groups, these game companies are more important in terms of social influence and actual state taxes.
Although there were all kinds of complaints from game companies before, no one stood up to speak, and the country's development direction is now mainly concentrated in other fields, and it is inevitable that they will not pay too much attention to the game field, although it doesn't mean that they don't care about those plug-ins, but after all, there is no strength, and the people below don't take it very seriously. So now Zhou Fangyuan wants everyone to unite to speak out, so that the country pays attention to the game industry, especially these large companies, these are big profits and taxes, although it is not as good as those enterprises or groups in traditional fields, but the potential visible to the naked eye is still very large, and the country cannot really leave it alone.
Since no one stood up to speak, Zhou Fangyuan decided to stand up, he is very young and has shallow qualifications, but the scale of Yuanfang Group has developed to this day, and the total assets are more than 10 billion, which is a relatively large group in China. In particular, Yuanfang Group rarely accepts investment, and all industries are basically developed by themselves, and the moisture is very small, so Yuanfang Group has this capital, and he stands up to speak, and other companies will not have any complaints and gossip.
“...... That's why I'm calling you this time, and although I can explain this matter by email or phone, I think it's better for everyone to get together and discuss it. And we don't just have to rely on the power of the country, we also have to make a contribution, I suggest that we might as well set up a clean network alliance to gather the strength of all our game companies to carry out a long-term crackdown on plug-ins, private servers and pirated discs on the market. Everyone knows that Yuanfang Group has no external investment, so I basically can't use the power of shareholders, but all of you here, many of your companies have people who have invested in shares, and shareholders in various industries have them, don't they worry about the company's income constantly decreasing? These people are also very strong, and if they can be mobilized, they can also play a good role.
And I also hope that you can make it clear to your shareholders that the stakes are here, that cheating, piracy, is destroying the foundation of the entire game industry. In the long run, let alone making money, it would be good to lose less. Do we really have to wait until all the game companies go bankrupt and the players can no longer do without plug-ins? Do we really have to sit back and wait to be caught? I don't want to, so I hope that all the seniors here, all the uncles and brothers, can all contribute their own strength. Because it's not for ourselves, it's for the whole industry, for everyone. ”
Zhou Fangyuan stood in front of the conference table and said loudly.
His words resonated with many people, and it can be seen that people keep nodding in agreement.
Zhou Fangyuan is not wrong, everyone understands this truth.
If you allow plug-ins and piracy to breed, there can only be two final results, either the game company goes out of business, or although the game company persists, players are used to piracy and cheating, and it is impossible to reverse it.
Just like the domestic game circle of the original time and space, domestic games, if you don't have a built-in plug-in or game store or something, you can't be called a domestic game. Players' understanding of domestic games is to spend money to become stronger, and then all kinds of automatic pathfinding automatically complete tasks. Zhou Fangyuan still remembers very clearly, when he was shopping in the Warcraft forum again, there was actually a player who claimed to be a teenager and scolded Warcraft, scolding Warcraft for charging money, it was not a free game, there was no automatic pathfinding function in it, he didn't know what he should do, and there was no game store, and there was nowhere to buy some oxfork equipment......
This is the result of too much poison.
What is the essence of the game, the essence of the game is entertainment, it is happy, of course, maybe this player thinks that he is very happy with domestic games, but Zhou Fangyuan has always been artificial, and paid games are king. Free games can attract more players to join, but the quality of players is uneven, including a large number of primary school students in the world, of course, the other side of the computer may not really be primary school students, primary school students are not just low quality, this statement is just a popular saying. But the other person on the other side of the computer is indeed very likely to be really bad in all aspects.
Scolding in the game,Insulting parents or something at every turn,The game character is not very good.,In short, such a player,Basically, the meaning of its existence,Is to destroy the game experience of other players.。
Zhou Fangyuan artificially has a certain threshold for entering the game.
Of course, this bar can't be set too high, otherwise no one will play the game.
For example, Warcraft, a few dozen dollars of card money is indeed a good block for a large number of players. Although there are still low-quality people in the game's player base, it's better than completely opening the threshold, completely free, and then letting countless people flood into the game and immediately cause chaos. Of course, I say this here, not that free games are not good, I can only say that Zhou Fangyuan's concept is not the same as free games, but people also have the benefits of others, if you want to become a national game, if you want to become a phenomenal game, free is the most basic, especially in the past two years, when the national income is not too high, free games are indeed a very important market supplement.
About ten years later, people have money in their hands, at least they will no longer feel distressed because of twenty or thirty yuan, and paid games will have the basis for popularity. This is also why those ST games in later generations are so popular, I have to say that there is a threshold, not a game for everyone that is completely released, it must have its own excellence. Game companies want to make money, and the games they make directly come up and require a sum of money to buy games, so why make this money? There must be something, the game must be good enough, at least it must be exquisite. Since there are requirements, then the game company naturally has to do it as much as possible.
So in terms of refinement, generally speaking, paid games are definitely better than free games, after all, the energy spent is different, and the purpose pursued is different.
Without further ado, in short, players can't get into the habit of buying pirated copies and using cheats, once they get into the habit, it's hard to change it later. If these two are good,That's it,But the problem is that both of them are illegal behaviors.,Piracy and plug-in,That's definitely illegal.,If players get used to this kind of behavior,Will it lead to the bankruptcy of genuine game manufacturers?Or force domestic online game manufacturers to develop internal plug-in systems?Internal plug-in system is certainly not a new thing.,But at least it's not too much now.,Far from those later game plug-ins.,Automatic pathfinding,Automatic hang-up,Automatic fighting...... Zhou Fangyuan is strange, an MMORPG game has so many functions, what is the player still doing in the game? The game character can do everything by himself, what is the point of the player sitting in front of the computer?
But this is the reality, others have what you don't have, your game is inconvenient and not fun, and no one will play it.
But when you get these things, you completely liberate the player, and people turn around and go to other games, and people on your side are just hanging up endlessly.
So, it's a vicious circle, and if you don't stop it, it's only going to get worse and worse, and you can never get it up.
As for those who do piracy and cheating, will they worry about the collapse of game companies? In fact, of course, they will not worry, although they themselves depend on these game companies for their food, but they don't care about the current situation of game companies at all. They only care about making money, and as long as they can make money, they can care about everything else. Even if the game company dies? Anyway, if one is down, there will be the next, and if one batch is poured, there will be the next batch, as long as the market exists, the game companies will continue to appear, and they will naturally have countless ways to make money.
That's human nature, sometimes I really can't say it.
Zhou Fangyuan can't control this kind of thing, he can only do what he can in his own field.
These bosses and representatives who were invited, you look at me and I look at you, began to fall into deep thought.
Zhou Fangyuan was not in a hurry to urge them, what he wanted was for everyone to recognize his ideas, not just talk about it. Needless to say, isn't one of these people suffering from piracy and plug-ins? If there is no such crisis, then I'm afraid the game company he belongs to is too bad, so bad that there are no pirates and plug-ins. It's like a game company of that size, I'm sorry, Zhou Fangyuan didn't bother to invite, because they can't empathize, and if they come over, they can only make trouble, so it's better not to.
These people in front of them are basically victims, and it is easiest for victims to feel the feelings of other victims.
Therefore, after waiting for a long time, someone raised his hand to express his agreement to join this alliance. With the first, there is the second, and as a result, more and more people raise their hands and express their attitudes.
When more than eighty percent of the people present raised their hands in agreement, the rest of the people, thinking about it, felt that there was no need to object.
They also raised their hands in agreement.
After all, even if these manufacturers have not been attacked so far, can they guarantee that they will not be invaded in the future? The market is like this now, whether you care about it or not, plug-ins and piracy are real, if you don't join this alliance now, turn around, if this loose alliance really gets the support of the state, knocks down a number of pirated and plug-ins, and purifies the Internet to a certain extent, then those flies hiding in the shadows, can they really change their ways? No! I'm afraid they will intensify it, but not necessarily at these big companies.
After all, large companies are not easy to mess with, and an alliance has been formed, which is more difficult to deal with, so it is very likely that they will turn around and deal with them sporadic companies that have not joined the alliance, and then they will become these companies digging their own graves, which no one wants to see.
So just follow the crowd and join forces with everyone to get rid of all the bad things as much as possible.
The alliance was officially established today, but it is really a loose organization, and it has no legal effect, just a group of companies that have been harmed.
The alliance set up a prime minister and a deputy director, no real power, that is, on behalf of everyone and the relevant government departments to consult, and then timely report various situations, directors and deputy directors are also elected, because everyone knows that the fight against piracy and plug-ins is not an overnight thing, so everyone decided after discussion that the candidates for directors and vice directors must change every year. This year is the first year, and theoretically there should be the largest game company to be the director, that is, Zhou Fangyuan of Yuanfang Games.
However, Zhou Fangyuan pushed it away because he was too young and too young, and his qualifications were too shallow, on the contrary, he recommended Wangyi to become a director, and Ogilvy to become a deputy director, these two companies, one is a plug-in and the other is piracy, both of them hate these messy things, and their qualifications are enough - in fact, the domestic Internet industry has just started for a long time, and if you want to talk about qualifications, in fact, everyone is not too much different. However, these two companies are strong enough, and their words also carry weight, let them be the vanguard, and everyone loves and recognizes.
As a result, a small net alliance was established, and Wangyi and Ogilvy became the first directors and deputy directors, responsible for contacting and negotiating with the national level, promoting national legislation to protect the game industry, and promoting the national level to crack down on piracy and plug-ins, and at the same time to inform other members of the situation in a timely manner, if there is a need for everyone's help, everyone can not sit idly by, if anyone dares to disobey, it is against the entire industry, I believe that no one will really be so stupid.
