After more than a month of testing, many Counter-Strike bugs were solved.

At the moment, in the office of the CEO of the Flamingo company.

Li Zetian is discussing the release of "Counter-Strike" with Nolan Bushnell.

“Mr· Li, now that Counter-Strike is complete and the Battle.net software platform is ready, you see, is it time to release it?"

"Well," Li Zetian nodded, and then asked, "How is the development of "Red Alert" and "Warcraft?"

"Red Alert is done...... As for Warcraft, the development progress is only halfway through. Bushnell was a little embarrassed when he talked about Blizzard, feeling that he had failed Li Zetian's trust, d Studios and Blizzard were developing games at about the same time, and they were both real-time strategy games, but estood Studios had done the job.

Li Zetian waved his hand and smiled, "Oh, this is already very good! estood Studios has experience in the development of this kind of game, so the development speed of "Red Alert" is fast, and it doesn't matter if Blizzard is slow. ”

Li Zetian still knows the temperament of Blizzard's development team, and he pays attention to excellence, which is very good.

“Mr· Li, do you want me to urge it, Flamingo needs a very good game to build a Battle.net platform. "Warcraft" was designed by you and belongs to the company's key projects!"

Li Zetian shook his head and said: "Don't rush, try to let them grasp the rhythm of game development by themselves." There is a saying in China that 'ten years of sharpening a sword', slow development, but can create a classic!"

Bushnell was slightly stunned, then suddenly realized, and nodded: "Well, I understand!"

"Well, let's start talking about the promotion plan of the Battle.net platform. Li Zetian said.

"Okay, Mr. Li，”

Bushnell thought for a moment and said, "I'm going to work with Netscape, Yahoo, and Sprint to promote the Battle.net software platform, such as pop-up ads with download pages." Counter-Strike and Red Alert are on the game's homepage on Battle.net, and players can see it at a glance. When players want to download the game, the game payment method will pop up, and let them sign up for a Battle.net account and pay with online banking. ”

The more Bushnell spoke, the more excited he became, "There are more than 50 online banks that want to cooperate with Flamingo Company, which can include most of the online banking depositors. ”

"Oh, by the way, Mr. Li, I have sent someone to contact the person in charge of the Honor chain Internet café in China, all Internet cafes will directly install the Battle.net platform, and download the game, players can play online through the LAN network of the Internet café, but if you want to play online around the world, you must enter the Battle.net competitive platform. ”

Li Zetian bowed slightly, indicating that he understood.

Speaking of which, the name of the Glory chain Internet café actually has a purpose.

Game competition has never been recognized, so Li Zetian has the heart to promote game competition. Playing competitive games can exercise the brain, such as a wonderful "StarCraft" or "Warcraft 3" showdown, not only to test technology and operation, but more importantly, the brain, calculation, and strategy!!

And team competitive games like League of Legends are more about team spirit.

It's also an honor to compete!

Therefore, Li Zetian named the name of the Internet café chain Glory, so that people can know that game competition is not just about playing!

Bushnell then continued: "There are also Internet cafes in Europe and the United States, but they are very few and scattered, and if we take the initiative to contact them, it will be more labor-intensive and time-consuming. I think that as long as we release the Battle.net platform and game software, we specifically state that if there is an Internet café that wants to cooperate with our Flamingo Company, we can enjoy the same cooperation conditions as the Honor Internet Café. ”

"Well, I think it's good!" and then continue......" Li Zetian smiled and nodded.

"Online promotion is probably like this, and offline promotion mainly relies on Flamingo company's retail stores!" When he said this, Bushnell couldn't help but glance at Li Zetian more, and a trace of admiration flashed in his eyes.

The Flamingo Corporation's retail store is different from other companies' retail stores in that it is more like an experience store where users can play all the games published by the Flamingo Company. Because of this, Flamingo Corp.'s retail stores have always been super popular, and this is the perfect time to promote the Battle.net software platform.

Bushnell began to tell Li Zetian in detail about the offline promotion plan, and the two discussed it again and further improved the plan.

Before you know it, it's noon.

Li Zetian, Dongfang Yuqin, and Bushnell had lunch together at the company's restaurant.

……

……

The Flamingo company has been preparing for a long time, and on June 1, an extremely grand press conference was held.

The press conference has not yet begun, and the press conference site has been crowded and lively.

"What a big scene, is the Flamingo Company going to make a big move?!" a young man sighed as he looked around.

The young girlfriend next to him was also shocked: "Yes, there are a lot of people today, but all game companies with a little strength seem to have sent representatives!"

A middle-aged man smiled at the two of them: "The Flamingo Company has generally not released such a big battle for new games in the past, and there must be something important to announce today." Hehe, you don't know yet, I just saw Chronos· Li went backstage!"

"Who are you talking about? Li？！！”

"yes, he's coming!!"

"Oh, so it ......" the young man was so excited that his face flushed and he was almost speechless.

His girlfriend frowned slightly, looking at him suspiciously, not understanding what he meant.

At this time, I saw the young man muttering to himself, "Chronos· Since Li came to the press conference, he must have designed the new game himself!! it must be, yes!!"

When my girlfriend heard this, she couldn't help but be surprised.

Her boyfriend likes games, she also likes games, Li Zetian's reputation in the game industry is skyrocketing, even if he hasn't designed a game for many years, but his legend has been circulating on the rivers and lakes, and it is still unforgettable!

At this time, she also became very excited, and her eyes exuded a strong look of anticipation.

The middle-aged man on the side looked at the young man and said with a slight smile: "Hehe, you guessed it right, at this press conference, Bushnell will announce two new games, and both of them are Chronos· Li designed it himself, but I don't know what kind of game it is......"

The young man was overjoyed at first, and then asked, "Oh, how do you know so much detail?"

"Hehe, I'm also an insider, and I got a little bit of news. ”

It didn't take long for the lights on the stage to dim, and everyone knew that the press conference was about to begin, and everyone found their seats and sat down, and it was quiet.

Suddenly, the large LCD screen lit up.

There was a burst of gunfire and artillery fire.

"Fire in the hole!!!" is shouted in vain, and a CG animation of the game appears on the screen, showing the police and bandits engaged in a fierce battle in an alley.

Everyone in the audience was shocked for a while, and immediately felt the blood boiling all over their bodies.

A unique press conference began.

There were no supporters speaking on stage, just images on the screen.

Enter the game - select LAN - create a game, select a map - join the game - police and bandit groups with five people on each side.

Then, the game begins.

Everyone watched quietly, their eyes shining brightly, without blinking.

Soon, the wonderful duel began, everyone held their breath, however, when it was time for the firefight, the gunshots rang out at the press conference, but seeing the police and bandits on the screen, they were killed on the ground one after another, each with damage.

"Ah!!h

At this time, after all, there were still people who couldn't help but be excited, and every time someone died, they screamed in surprise.

After a while, the first game was over, and people finally breathed a sigh of relief.

At the beginning of the second game, the police are the victors, with access to more funds and the ability to purchase more expensive and advanced weapons. The loser, due to the loss of the first game, could not keep up with the economy and had worse weapons and equipment.

The guests who were watching in the audience couldn't help but light up their eyes and were pleasantly surprised.

"It's fair, win the side and have an economic advantage!"

Bang!

Suddenly, a gunshot rang out and a policeman on the screen died.

"Oh my God, a headshot!!"

There was a sudden uproar in the audience!

Without waiting for everyone's mood to stabilize, the picture turned, and the terrorist had just walked to a gate, when suddenly, a policeman jumped out, brushed and brushed, and pulled out a knife to surround the terrorist for a crazy cut, and in an instant, blood burst out, and after a few knives, the terrorist fell to the ground.

The audience all opened their mouths in astonishment.

"Damn, it's okay to do this! I actually stabbed the other party to death with a knife!"

"It's awesome, I love this game, I can't wait to play it now!This game is definitely the best game I've ever seen!"

"yes, I've never seen such a fun game!"

“……”

At this moment, everyone's hearts are itching.

And the third game began.

One of the police camps bought a sniper rifle, and at first the audience didn't feel anything, but soon they were all dumbfounded.

The four policemen stayed at home, and only the policeman who had bought the sniper rifle went into action.

He lurked in a hidden place, waiting for the terrorists to strike.

In the picture, the magnifying sight is turned on, and a position is locked, only to see that the terrorist has just shown a head, and there is a "bang" and a headshot.

Everyone couldn't help but gasp.

"This ...... It's amazing! I didn't even see it clearly, and I actually died!"

"I only saw one black dot. ”

"This sniper's surgery and eyes are too amazing!"

"Super master!!"

“……”

Just as everyone was talking, a white screen suddenly appeared on the screen, and the terrorists threw out flashing lights.

At this moment, the gunfire of the sniper rifle rang out again.

The audience saw that the terrorist had died again, and everyone was dumbfounded!

"What is the situation, you can kill a person without seeing it. ”

"Just a shot, good luck. ”

"Luck? others have a good sense of it, they should deduce the time when the other party is going to come out, and then shoot!"

"This sniper is awesome...... isn't it?"

There was also a terrorist inside the door, and at this time, he stood motionless, as if due to the fact that he was rushing or not rushing.

After half a ring, no decision has been made.

The audience smiled contemptuously one by one.

"Hehe, there is a top sniper guarding here, terrorists don't dare to rush!"

"It should be, it's been a few seconds!"

"Cowardly!"

“……”

Everyone whispered that the terrorists finally chose to leave. The sniper waited for a while, and when he saw that no one dared to come, he immediately got up, began to change places, and then hid in another hidden place.

"Haha, this sniper is really cunning, shoot a shot to change the other party, wait for the rabbit, so that the other party can't find his location. ”

"Hehe, I'm going to play sniper too, it's obscene enough!"

The next showdown is basically a sniper's solo show, with a one-on-five show, shocking the audience.

After three rounds, the screen freezes and the lights on the stage come on.

Nolan Bushnell, CEO of Flamingo Corporation, walked to the front of the stage in a black suit and a smile.

"Welcome to the Flamingo press conference. I wonder what you think of these three games?" he asked with a grin.

"It's amazing, it's wonderful, may I ask Mr. Bushnell, what kind of game is this, it's so much fun!"

"yes, a classic!"

“……”

Everyone expressed their opinions, but all of them praised the game!

Bushnell stretched out his hand, signaled everyone to be quiet, and then said: "This game is called Counter-Strike, and everyone has seen it and knows how this game is played." I think, at this moment, you're thinking, who is the designer of this game?"

After saying that, Bushnell deliberately paused.

Seeing this, everyone was angry.

"Hmph, this Bushnell is actually selling off at this time, I don't even have to guess carefully, I know that it must be Chronos· Designed and developed by Li!"

"yes, except for Chronos· Li, who could have designed such a fun game!"

Everyone couldn't help but despise Bushnell.

Bushnell held his forehead and said, "Well, I think everyone seems to have just come out...... Well, that's right, he's the famous genius of the gaming industry, Chronos· Li！”

After finishing speaking, everyone in the audience was immediately excited, guessing is speculation after all, what if not.

At this moment, countless Chronos· Li's fans couldn't help but scream and shout his name.

“Chronos· Li！！！”

“Chronos· Li！！！”

“Chronos· Li！！！”

“……”

Although Bushnell had been mentally prepared, he could not help but be moved by their enthusiasm.

He picked up the microphone, "coughed" twice, and said loudly: "Everyone, please be quiet!"

"There was a demonstration of the battle just now, isn't that sniper cop very powerful? Hehe, do you want to know who this person is?"

Looking at Bushnell's smug and pretended mysterious face, everyone couldn't help but feel stunned.

"Could it be that the sniper is Chronos· Li: Oh my God, it's not really!! right."
