Chapter 282: Crashed?
Without the intervention of Internet rumors in his previous life, Li Yue is updating the news of various provinces and cities across the country on time every day! Netizens across the country seem to be much quieter.
The outbreak of SARS made Momo Express and Taobao begin to take off! Because people are afraid of going to public places, the Internet and logistics have become a very good choice for people to shop. With so many entertainment venues closed, online gaming and online video are at the best time to grow.
Li Yue certainly didn't miss such a good opportunity, and a week after Blizzard launched Warcraft, Li Yue released the Dota 1 map and promoted it globally.
Blizzard's expectations for Warcraft were very high. They are very confident in their products, and it turns out that Warcraft is indeed a very good work. But they didn't expect that someone else would parasitize a product on their work.
Just when Li Yue launched Dota 1 on the global official website of Momo Games, he immediately established his own e-sports league! For other projects, Li Yue gave Blizzard's two games, "Star 2" and "The Frozen Throne". For other games, Li Yue didn't give them a chance at all. Games like "CS" and "FIFA", Li Yue is really not interested in wasting $10 million on them.
"The first place in each project, 5 million US dollars!" netizens couldn't believe what they saw with their eyes.
Spurred on by the $5 million prize money, Call of Duty has ushered in another population explosion. And the global growth of Dota 1 can be described as terrifying.
Seeing that the news hype on the Internet is getting hotter and hotter, Li Yue released the long-awaited "GTA5" again.
With the configuration of dual I7 dual X30 graphics cards, the graphics of "GTA5" amaze any player in this configuration.
Seeing this again, game producers around the world are starting to move towards this goal. In the past, they had to make games based on the capacity of the computer. Now they don't have any concerns about this aspect, and in front of the dual-socket I7 dual graphics card, there is no game that it can't run.
Just when the professional gaming media hadn't fully played GTA5 yet. Li Yue dropped two more nuclear bomb-level masterpieces, "Crysis" and "Assassin's Creed".
Now those players who originally bought a dual-socket I7 dual graphics card configuration are excited. In this era, they hold such a top-of-the-line configuration, but there has been no exciting masterpiece. There is always a feeling of fighting mosquitoes every day with a cannon. Although there is "Call of Duty Online" to play, the texture of the graphics and the configuration of the I3 have not changed much overall, which makes those netizens who have spent a lot of money feel more or less awkward. But now, they have a picture quality on their computer that no other computer can render. WHEN THESE GAMES CAME OUT, THEY CAN NOW SHOW OFF ON THE FORUMS, YOUTUBE, AND TWITTER.
"Hey, James, what about you still using that antique Intel? How did you show off to me in the first place, haha! What game can you play with that antique now? Oh, yes, CS! Seems like you can still play it! How's it going? How's it going?! I don't know what sniping is in real-life games like Call of Duty and Crysis, so teach me how to do it!"
Due to such masterpieces as Call of Duty Online, Assassin's Creed, and Crysis, they can only be run on the latest computers. Therefore, computer manufacturers are facing the risk of running out of stock. Games are the best ads to stimulate hardware sales. This has been proven countless times from 2000 to 2017. For merchants, this is all a wise saying.
From the novelty of new hardware to the market, most people buy it out of curiosity. And now, people know enough about the new hardware. Now to buy a new computer, it is purely out of the need for performance.
In the past few days since Li Yue launched several games and established an e-sports league. Hardware technology companies, led by Intel, have once again been hit on the stock market. And this time, the game companies are not spared. Their shares were also sold off by investors.
Not so long ago, the media publicly reported that Intel was ready for revenge. They have already launched the 45nm program, and everything is going well. But before they could see the light of hope, the sales of computer manufacturers slapped Intel in the face again. If they don't come up with their own 45nm products, soon the computers on the planet will be saturated!
By that time, who will Intel sell its 45nm products to? Numerous PC brands have fallen and their production lines are about to shut down. Workers have changed jobs, and many have lost their jobs as a result.
Intel's senior management is also anxious in their eyes, but they can't do anything about it! In the face of those former partners falling one by one, Intel also feels that death is getting closer and closer to itself.
HP, DELL, IBM, although they are all American companies, but when they really come up with 45 nanometer products, will they leave Li Yue and re-devote themselves to their arms? Li Yue is not a fool, he has the ability to develop 45 nanometer products, and naturally he will not obediently wait for himself to surpass again!
It is precisely for this reason that it is estimated that HP, DELL, and IBM do not dare to offend Li Yue. If he uses Intel's chips on the front foot at that time, Li Yue will develop better chips on the back foot, and then only provide them to Huaxia companies, then we will not be eliminated.
Looking at the prospect of getting bleaker and bleaker, Intel and AMD and other hardware development companies have come to the edge of the cliff.
Unlike hardware companies, game development companies, although the stock has been suppressed for a short period of time. However, as long as the game they launched is popular, their stock price can still rise.
This time, computer sales skyrocketed, and Li Yue once again made tens of billions of dollars from it. I have to admit that this is the most lucrative industry in the world. Science and technology are the primary productive forces, and this sentence is still very true.
Just when Li Yue continued to use money to subsidize the construction of his own special zone. Two months later, U.S. drones again conducted aerial photography of Li Yue's SAR without any care.
What they didn't expect, however, was that they had just entered the airspace of the SAR. Their drones lost contact with the base. Not only was the communication interrupted, but there was no reflected signal from the drone on the radar!
At first, the U.S. military thought it was a mechanical failure of its own drone, which caused the crash. But when they sent a plane to reconnoiter the second time, the drone disappeared for no apparent reason.
This time, they did not believe that the suspicion was that there was something wrong with their own products, but that Li Yue had anti-aircraft weapons. Maybe those two planes were shot down by Li Yue.
