A week later, the local virtual world product "Second Life" in the United States also announced that it was open to users all over the world for registration, and the concept of the virtual world promoted by "Second Life" was the same as "Six Degrees of Space", only a little different in some details, and Second Life also announced a similar policy to Six Degrees of Thought, the ownership of the items created by residents belongs to the residents themselves, and the virtual currency in it can also be directly exchanged with US dollars.

Although "Second Life" has been accused of being a "crappy replica" of the "Six Degrees Space", because the characters in Second Life can take off all the clothes so that they can be completely naked, and in terms of policy, they are more relaxed than the Six Degrees Space, many activities that are not allowed in the "Six Degrees Space" are allowed in "Second Life", so it has also attracted many players to enter and occupied a lot of markets.

However, the tone of Second Life has basically been set at the beginning, and the characters in it, dressed revealingly, are full of violence and are very criticized by people.

Two days later, Blizzard Entertainment returned to Liudu, this time with Mr. Mick, the representative of Blizzard's parent company, Prestige Di.

You don't need to ask Han Feng to know that the other party must have gone to find Second Life before this, and now they have come to the door again, it is likely that they have also touched a nose over there, and in addition, the platform of Second Life is not mature enough.

After the release of Second Life. Han Feng experienced it for the first time, and carefully studied their entire network architecture, he found that the other party referred to the six degrees of space in many aspects, but did not learn home, for example, although it also used P2P technology, but it was not complete, only partially adopted this technology, in fact, it still has to use a large number of servers to assist in supporting the entire network. And there are also problems when it comes to security.

In Han Feng's view, Second Life's innovation ability is quite poor, almost completely only knows how to copy, and the products made can be described as rough, although it is still in its infancy, but some problems can indeed be avoided.

In fact, even Han Feng himself couldn't believe this. It stands to reason that the Americans are very innovative and imaginative, so how could this happen? It feels as if the developers simply didn't bother to craft the product, but just coped with it.

After Mr. Mick came to meet with Han Feng, he first expressed his desire to acquire Liudu Network, and this time, they increased the price by more than two times. The direct price is $1.5 billion. Sure enough, it is worthy of the prestige of Di Global Group, and the shot is extraordinary, but unfortunately, Han Feng still did not agree.

Seeing this, Mick couldn't help but sigh: "I have never seen a young man like you, who is not moved at all in the face of more than a billion dollars. We agree with your cooperation plan, specific matters. You talk to Ruobo in detail, and he is in charge of this matter. In addition, I would like to ask, does your company still need to absorb financing?"

Han Feng smiled: "Not for the time being." I'm now struggling with how to spend this large sum of money. ”

"oK, remember to call me when you need financing. ”

Mick only came to take a turn and then left the rest of the matter to Ruobo, who came with him, to take full responsibility.

Ruo Bo and Han Feng are both technicians. Speaking of which. Very handy. Ruobo was very surprised by Han Feng's technical level, and he originally saw that the young president was going to discuss the specific details with him personally. I was very surprised, thinking that he was a bit hasty in doing this, at least he should need to think that the technical assistant was on the side to assist, but after talking, he found that Han Feng is very proficient in game programming, and many technologies that can only be learned in actual development, as long as he mentions the principle a little, he can draw inferences from one another, touch the analogy, and think of the implementation method in an instant.

Ruobo sighed: "Chinese style, if you are not the president of the Six Degrees Network, no matter how much it costs, you will have to be poached into our company!"

A key technician often plays a decisive role in a project, although it is not indispensable, but if there is, it may greatly shorten the time cycle of the entire project, maybe with the addition of Han Feng, Blizzard can break the curse of frequent ticket jumping.

"Hehe, it's rare to find a talent like you, if you're interested, we'll open the door to you at any time. ”

Seeing this, Yang Xiwen and Ruobo's assistants next to them couldn't help but show helpless expressions on their faces, and the two of them discussed the details of cooperation, but they dug each other's corners.

And Han Feng also knew at this time that Blizzard had another team of developers, and this team was secretly developing a new game platform, which was indeed similar in nature to the "Six Degrees of Space", but they focused on the game field, through this platform, all the games developed by Blizzard before could be integrated together, based on this platform, and then develop new games, all of which can be carried out on this basis, and truly realize user information and data sharing.

However, in the process of development, Che encountered a lot of headaches, or rather, they went in the wrong direction, according to their assumptions, the final development of the platform is surprisingly large, even if the development is successful, it is estimated that not many users can tolerate their hard disk occupied by the game so much space.

It wasn't until they saw the emergence of the "six-dimensional space" that they found that their research direction and ideas were problematic, a client in the virtual world was only tens of megabytes in size, but it could also complete most of the functions of the 3D game, but there were still several big problems to be solved, so they were still doubting whether the way to use the virtual world could achieve the effect that could only be achieved in the game.

Before they could prove the results, a new version of "Six Dimensions of Space" appeared, and several of the fatal puzzles they thought were solved together. The news overjoyed them, and before they could prove it, others had already told them the answer with practical actions, and just when they were gearing up to make drastic changes to the original plan, the company's top management came with a message asking them to suspend the plan.

I have to say that Blizzard's top management has a very keen grasp of the game, and as soon as Six Degrees Space appeared, they realized the potential threat in it, and they are still considering whether it is cost-effective for them to redevelop such a platform themselves. As a result of the final discussion, two plans came out, plan A is to directly merge and acquire the entire platform including technical personnel, and plan B is to take a step back and seek cooperation when plan A does not work.

The reason why they came to talk about Plan B after so much time is that on the one hand, they are giving Liudu a few days to think, and on the other hand, they are waiting for the results of Second Life, and if Second Life can also meet their requirements, they will choose to buy Second Life.

After understanding, they found that the platform of Second Life could only barely meet their needs, of course, this is just the beginning after all, there is still room for development, they still sent a representative to contact Second Life, but the other party also rejected their acquisition.

Therefore, Blizzard came to Liudu again, and this time it also asked for someone from the parent company, and wanted to try to acquire it again by raising the price, but he didn't expect Han Feng to still reply to that one, and finally had to use Plan B. And, before that, they had heard that Estoro had reached an agreement with Liudu, so they felt that they couldn't wait any longer.

Now, some transactions have begun to be generated in the Six Degrees Space, and the way the Six Degrees Network generates revenue, in addition to renting out the land, is the transaction fee between residents, which is a kind of fee similar to taxation. Now, once the corresponding online game is successfully developed in it, Six Degrees Space will generate a new profit model, and this profit method may become one of the main profit methods of Six Degrees Space.

The top priority of the Six Degrees Network now is to formulate the standard interface of online games in the Six Degrees Space as soon as possible, and after it comes out, game developers can port their games according to this interface. However, this process is not something that Han Feng can do alone, nor can it be completed in a while. As is customary, a corresponding strengthening group has been formed, and even some game development experts from major game development companies such as Blizzard have been brought in to participate in the development of this standard.

After doing all this, Han Feng finally has his own time, and it's time to return to China.

However, he still has a few things to do before returning home. First, to find out whether M is really no longer alive, and what is the relationship between the person who claims to be M's friend and M, and second, if possible, he meets Shirley's grandmother.
