It's different from the Steam platform, where the censorship system is basically equal to none. Games logged in on the Dream platform will be submitted for review by Dream on its own initiative.

Of course, the domestic version abides by the laws of China.

For example, what blood is green and black, but not red.

For example, what ghost movies can't have ghosts.

Like what can't have footage or something......

These are all defined in advance.

Secondly, there is the international version.

Domestic players of the international version of the Dream platform can also log in, and even if they have the same domestic game, they can make up the difference and upgrade the game.

Since it is an international version, it is naturally all open.

Of course, this kind of thing is officially turned a blind eye.

In fact, to be honest, compared to the domestic game period that is still in a chaotic period at this moment, the game characteristics of the Dream platform tend to be very conservative.

Some people are crazy about diss, and some people are secretly accusing.

However, the problem is that with a series of online games being hit by public opinion, the games of the Dream platform have become the new favorite.

Naturally, there are also some experts and professors who call the game spiritual opium.

As one of the top four game companies, Dream has received a lot of criticism for its gaming platform.

However, in such a situation, with the works of other game operators other than pig factories and goose factories landing on the Dream platform one after another, the popularity of the Dream platform has gradually expanded.

In today's era of casual games, the Dream platform has gradually grown in praise from players with excellent indie games and complete licensing updates.

Of course, due to financial constraints, this growth is slow.

If it is placed in another company, then I am afraid that the project will already be canceled at this time.

But Mao Yi relied on the money he earned from other departments to support the game platform.

It is impossible to do this with any listed company.

After all, it is responsible to the shareholders.

But Bilibili is still under Mao Yi's control in the final analysis.

Although the company's shareholders still have Ali and Penguin, the decision-making power of the entire company is still under the control of Mao Yi.

This is also the reason why Mao Yi is only willing to sell 40% of the shares.

Of course, these shares will be taken back one after another.

As for when, we can only wait until the release of "Sword and Fairy III".

After Mao Yi finished the work, he did not stop, but went to the United States.

The three rounds of broadcast rights of "Bao Sangu's Biography" have been sold out.

While "Sword and Fairy III" is about to be in post-production, Peng Hui is going to the United States to buy the development rights of a game.

is the "Tomb Raider" that Mao Yi once regretted missing before.

The reboot plan of the new "Tomb Raider" has completely become a chicken rib with the collapse of "Tomb 8" at the end of last year.

It's a pity to discard it.

SE directly paused the development progress of this game.

Crystal Power was refrigerated.

And Mao Yi came this time to buy the copyright of "Tomb Raider".

There is really nothing to say about the negotiation process.

Mao Yi bit the idea that SE is now eager to cash out, and even more bites the failure of "Tomb Raider 8".

In the end, under the helpless gaze of the SE negotiators, they bought the IP of Crystal Power and "Tomb Raider" at a price of 30 million US dollars.

Of course, this almost drained the entire Bilibili funding.

That said, game development is also quickly on the agenda.

Mao Yi arrived at the Crystal Dynamics building.

In the conference room, Mao Yi also met the new president and new senior management of Crystal Power.

In fact, strictly speaking, if SE was not in a financial crisis at this time, with Dream's capital and scale, it would not have been able to buy Crystal Power.

This is also the time when the crystal power is at its weakest.

However, taking advantage of this kind of thing, Mao Yi naturally won't say much.

With a translator to translate, Mao Yi can be regarded as a preliminary acquaintance with the senior management of Crystal Power.

Soon, a series of personnel from the Dream headquarters will come here to take over Crystal Power.

None of this is a problem.

The question is......

On how the new Tomb Raider IP will be developed.

Mao Yi was silent at first, just listening to the brainstorming sessions of the top management.

Aside from the fact that the name is Tomb Raider and that it is on an island, the entire Crystal Dynamics hierarchy has been making their own suggestions.

Some propose a new plan.

Laura will go on an adventure with a 6-year-old girl, Izumi, a mysterious island inhabited by ghosts and monsters, and Izumi, who is small enough to climb into small places to help the player, forming a so-called "asymmetrical gameplay".

However, this plan was rejected by Mao Yi on the grounds that this kind of story background was too ethereal and incomprehensible for "Tomb Raider".

Some offered to replace the spring with a monkey, but it still didn't work.

Someone else proposed to use "Wanda and the Colossus", with Laura riding on horseback and fighting the Colossus.

However, Mao Yi raised an objection.

With the continuous in-depth modification of the concept art of the Colossus, this kind of game will make the beauty style of the whole game enter the realm of horror.

And the darkened setting information of "Tomb Raider" will definitely cause dissatisfaction among fans.

In fact, to be honest, if the IP of "Tomb Raider" was positioned in a dark style from the beginning, then it would naturally be nothing, but now, after players already have a clear concept of the entire "Tomb Raider", if you play like this again, you will inevitably be resisted.

But obviously, Mao Yi's continuous veto made the old employees of Crystal Power very dissatisfied.

Seeing the angry appearance of the crowd, Mao Yi smiled.

"So be it. Mao Yi said with a smile: "Since everyone is unwilling...... So why not release this plan as a vote?"

After listening to the simultaneous translation of the translator, the others looked at each other.

Jack, the manager of the new company, asked, "What does the boss mean ......"

"Post a poll. Mao Yi said with a smile: "Whether the darkened "Tomb Raider" is feasible to vote on the Internet, the time is a week, if the players agree, then naturally there is nothing to say, if you don't agree...... Mao Yi smiled and didn't speak.

Jack looked at each other and nodded in agreement.

Soon, with a questionnaire launched by the official website of Crystal Power and the official website of Dream, there was a lot of heated discussion on the Internet.

In fact, after three days, everyone's faces turned ugly.

Refuse.

Resist.

Vituperate.

In short, the proposal for the darkened Tomb Raider was forced to be canceled.

Mao Yi waited patiently until a week later this time.

There are no accidents.,The previous plan,Was completely abandoned.。。

Seeing that the atmosphere in the conference room was a little dull, Mao Yi smiled and asked casually, "Are there any other plans?"

No one spoke.
