Chapter 12: The embarrassment of the Chinese people
"Two versions?"
Qin Lao Er didn't have a class today, and he planned to come to the Internet café Dota with his roommates, and as soon as he opened the demon platform, he saw this news.
"Qin Laoer, which version are you going to play?" Xue Laosi next to him pushed and said.
Qin Lao Er said without hesitation: "I choose to believe in Zhao Chuanzhi, no brother, no dota!"
Xue Laosi said with a smile: "I look at this hearty version of Lu Zhan, and the name is also very good!
Qin Lao Er cut off: "Don't regret it." ”
Seven or eight students, divided into two camps, each chose a version of the map to play.
Qin Lao Er entered the game, and his eyes suddenly lit up: "There are so many new elements! Roshan, river runes, props have been added, real and false eyes have been added, and the fog of trickery has been added! Sure enough, it is worthy of the god of Chinese games in my heart, Zhao Chuanzhi!"
Two hours later, Qin Lao Er had already finished playing three games, and his understanding of this new map was getting deeper and deeper.
"That's really good, Zhao Chuanzhi really understands the thoughts of our players!" he turned around and asked, "Xue Laosi, how are you guys over there?"
Xue Laosi felt a headache and a swollen brain: "I haven't finished the fight yet, it's uncomfortable to death, everything is slower, a hearty fart, how many fights have you finished?"
Qin Laoer's eyebrows seemed to be dancing: "I've finished playing three fights, it's wonderful!"
Xue Laosi's one-level game, "I'm also here to play with you, damn it, I should have known it a long time ago, and I believe that Zhao Chuanzhi, the god of Huaxia, is right!"
The rest are playing the "hearty" version, and they all uninstall and re-download the Zhao Chuanzhi version.
"No brothers, no dota! Team up with five people to sit and walk in the dark!"
……
The reaction of the market soon appeared on Liu Yang's table.
Two market reports, one gloomy and bleak, no one cares, players are scolding, this version of the map updater, completely do not understand the essence of DOTA!
The other is the player's enthusiastic feedback and applause, so that the number of Dota downloads has risen to a new level!
"Xiao Shao, are you accurate or not?" Liu Yang said unhappily.
The cold sweat on Shao Qiang's forehead fell: "Minister, the data is absolutely accurate, who knows that this is the result......! It can only be said that these Dota players did not say their true psychological thoughts at all, so that this Zhao Chuanzhi took shit luck again and ran into the idea. ”
"Shit luck fart!Zhao Chuanzhi is powerful!" Liu Yang really regretted it at the moment, how could he believe Shao Qiang's words before. This must have chilled Zhao Chuanzhi's heart.
"Minister Liu, no matter how powerful he Zhao Chuanzhi is, he can't compete with Blizzard Company!"
Shao Qiang gritted his teeth and took out a killer idea: "Originally, I planned to talk about this later, Minister Liu, Blizzard has planned to release a new update to Warcraft III, which is no longer compatible with the Dota map, and turns off the support for the Dota map! Now, before the blizzard and Zhao Chuanzhi, the rift is even bigger!"
"Not compatible with Dota?"
Liu Yang only felt a cold sweat on his back! What he was most worried about still happened!
Dota is based on Warcraft III, and the most feared thing is that Warcraft III no longer supports Dota. Blizzard actually did it, what can I do?
Now Dota is the pillar of Zhongke's company, in case this benchmark falls, then Zhongke will be very bloody!
"Xiao Shao, is this true?" Liu Yang's voice trembled a little, and he almost dialed the phone from the top management.
Shao Qiang said: "It's true, I've already discussed with Blizzard, Blizzard is a big international company after all, and they didn't do things perfectly, they gave us another way." It is the acquisition of the Dota project, and I work hard with Sheng Fangnu, maybe we can make Blizzard and our Zhongke together!"
Liu Yang's body was weak, his forehead was sweating, this sense of ups and downs was really exciting, "Xiao Shao, this matter is very important! When will the negotiation expert of the blizzard come, if you get it done at that time, you will be a hero!"
"I'll do my best!" Shao Qiang hesitated: "Minister Liu, Blizzard said, our Zhongke company is too small, we don't need offline special negotiations, we only need online meetings, and as for the acquisition contract, it can be faxed directly." ”
A trace of embarrassment flashed on Liu Yang's face, Zhongke Company was too small, and Blizzard was not willing to send people to Huaxia.
"That'...... That's fine!"
……
Negotiation video conference, on the side of the blizzard, there are two people sitting facing the camera, one of whom is still an interpreter.
Looking at Zhong Ke again, Chairman Zhong Wanmin, General Manager Zhong Yingying, the Board of Directors, the Minister of Finance, and the Minister of the Project, all sat in a conference room, and they attached great importance to this matter.
"Dear Mr. Charles, we would like to make a suggestion regarding the acquisition contract. ”
Charles over there was blonde and blue-eyed, and said: "Regarding the Dota project, we also pay more attention to the blizzard, and Mr. Zhong has any requirements but it doesn't matter." ”
Zhong Wanmin's heart relaxed slightly, and said with a smile: "Can the acquisition contract be changed to the acquisition of the entire Zhongke Company?"
Charles listened, frowned slightly, and said, "Wait a minute." He turned his head and didn't know who he had called.
Everyone, including Zhong Wanmin and Zhong Yingying, held their breath and waited nervously.
After a while, Charles finally faced the camera and shook his head regretfully: "Sorry, Mr. Zhong, we in Blizzard only want the Dota project team, and we don't want other dross...... I just learned the Chinese language, please forgive me for the inappropriate wording. ”
Zhong Wanmin and the others were suddenly embarrassed.
The Chinese game circle, in the eyes of advanced foreign gamers, is indeed a mess, only known about copycat plagiarism and skin-changing games. Dota is the only one that breathes the air.
Charles said: "According to the practice of international acquisition of games, we will pay two million US dollars to buy in the form of shares, and of this, there is also 3% of the share, which belongs to the founder Zhao Chuanzhi, which is enforced by international law, and please send it to Zhao Chuanzhi, otherwise we will be sued in a blizzard." ”
Charles was afraid that these Chinese gamers did not understand international law, so he reminded him carefully.
Zhong Wanmin sighed in his heart, and the plan to hug the blizzard's thick legs failed like this. But fortunately, at least 2 million US dollars were made in vain, which is 12 million yuan, and Zhongke Game Company has this money and has come back to life.
closed the communication, retired everyone, and only Zhong Wanmin, project minister Liu Yang, and Shao Qiang and other people from the Dota project team were left in the conference room, but there was no Zhao Chuanzhi. At this meeting, everyone knew that Zhao Chuanzhi was not in favor of selling Dota, so he simply didn't let him participate.
"Chairman, Zhao Chuanzhi's ......," Liu Yang asked worriedly.
Zhong Wanmin's eyes flashed a ruthless color: "If it should be decided, it will be decided, Zhao Chuanzhi can be regarded as a contribution to the company, and his 3% stake should be regarded as a reward given to him by the company, and he can also be stopped." ”
Shao Qiang said: "Chairman, if you sell the dota project team, then you must go through Zhao Chuanzhi, the project team leader, I am afraid that Zhao Chuanzhi will oppose it at that time." ”
Zhong Wanmin said: "This is simple, from today on, the project leader of the dota group, another person will take on the role, Zhao Chuanzhi, I will give him another position, and he can still shine for the company." ”
