Chapter 170: Competitive Games First
Zhao Zejun's three requirements for Jingdong, one is more moving than the other, especially the third, which has the ambition of 'dominating the world', which sounds the most tempting.
Liu Qiangdong did not object to any of them, but hoped to cooperate in depth in all three aspects.
However, Lao Zhao knows very well in his heart that the first two proposals are real, and the last one seems to be the most inspirational, but it is relatively empty.
With the current relationship between the two companies, even if there is no last cooperation, if one party encounters a problem that needs to be solved in a certain place, the other party will help, and there is no need for this kind of 'straightforward' agreement.
People's experiences and perceptions in childhood often accompany them throughout their lives. The same is true for businesses to some extent. 、
The reason why it is necessary to clearly put forward this point with Liu Qiangdong at this stage is that Zhao Zejun hopes that Liu Qiangdong and Jingdong can be cultivated at the stage when Jingdong is still young: the development of Jingdong is inseparable from the help of Zelianke and Zeye, at least cooperation.
Although Jingdong is small, its model is something that Zhao Zejun appreciates.
Alibaba is currently engaged in the Internet, and SF Express is only involved in physical express delivery, but neither of these two companies can be deeply involved in Zhao Zejun. And Jingdong, one hand Internet e-commerce, one hand entity expansion, both hands grasp, both hands are hard, in the future, for the auxiliary role of Zezi, absolutely greater than any Alibaba and SF Express.
Liu Qiangdong likes little Lori, he doesn't like it enough, he has to marry and go home to enjoy it slowly, and train a college student who has just walked out of school into a so-called female entrepreneur and play with his Lori;
Zhao Zejun also likes to play and cultivate, but he doesn't play milk tea herbal tea little Loli, but cultivates Jingdong's little Loli.
"Mr. Zhao, you can rest assured that Jingdong, whether it is cooperation or self-development, I will give you a satisfactory answer. But ......"
Liu Qiangdong didn't know if it was true and sincere, or it made people feel very honest, with a simple face like leap earth, and said: "But in any case, it is impossible for JD to help Zepay grab too much market share from Alipay in a short period of time." The competition of third-party payment platforms, JD.com can help the limited number of Shangzawa Lianke. ”
"Well...... Zhao Zejun nodded, and said lightly: "Jingdong does its best, pay the market, I have my plans." ”
……
Just Zepay and Alipay are fighting hotly...... Strictly speaking, it was Zepay that provoked the war, followed by Alipay when half of the users were knocked out, and when they looked embarrassed like wild dogs, Zelianke's more games finally launched new games.
During this time, Zelianke seems to have been not very 'smooth', always 'offended' the industry's best giant, and then was hit hard.
This has been the case since the beginning of more plays, not long ago, more play also boasted that it wanted to build the country's largest comprehensive game platform, which directly touched the interests of Tencent.
And then...... And then there's nothing then.,The big plan to play more three-five-one,The big game platform that the super invincible universe gods and Buddhas are afraid of has not made any movement.,After being silent for a long time,It's just announced that it's an agent of a little-known foreign online game.,League of Legends.。
As for what this League of Legends is like, no one knows, it is said to have some kinship with World of Warcraft.
After the news was announced, there was no sound and no movement in the game.
Finally, after Zepay suffered a 'major blow', Zelianke seemed to remember that he still had a game that was not launched.
So, League of Legends finally met with mainland players in the early hours of the morning on a somewhat cold morning.
Weibo's publicity is still there, between the tacit understanding reached with Tencent in the game, Tencent also carried out moderate publicity on QQ this time.
But just two weeks later, this competitive game, which was not too optimistic about it before and even many people didn't pay attention to it, suddenly became popular!
According to the internal information of Duo Play, the server cluster has shown signs of high pressure, and Zelianke Business Incubation Department is spending money to purchase and deploy new servers to expand the scale of the cluster to cope with the influx of players like a tide.
This kind of sign of breaking out as soon as it is launched, and on the same scale, has only appeared twice in the history of mainland online games: the first is legendary, and the second is World of Warcraft.
Even well-known online games such as CS, Journey to the West, World of Legends, and Dota are far inferior to League of Legends in terms of user growth in the first half month.
A popular game will naturally attract the attention of game critics, and soon, in the largest game forum in China, posts about the experience of League of Legends continue to emerge.
Although it is very popular, the scolding is also very high.
A large number of high-level players feel that this game is too young, and the highly intelligent and simplified operation has greatly lowered the threshold, so that there are many 'elementary school students' in the game.
There are also many people who believe that compared with the same type of Dota, the online game of League of Legends is very strong, but it dilutes the competitive operation.
The two things of runes and talents in lol are the biggest features, which increase the fun of the game and the distinction between different character classes, and at the same time, it also makes competitive games more biased towards fighting monsters and upgrading like World of Warcraft.
League of Legends' ranked ladder system and matchmaking system are also special, introducing the concept of priority to protect novices from being abused by experienced players, so that there are no novices in the master game, creating competitive and fair game matches.
For the old and middle birds, this is very annoying: everyone is at the same level, and it is not exciting enough.
In short, in the eyes of many veteran players, League of Legends has really lowered the level of competitive games.
But if you analyze it carefully, you will find that most of the so-called old birds who post on the forum to scold League of Legends are loyal players of previous data.
From a more professional point of view, these are criticized by the so-called "masters" and "old birds", which are precisely the advantages of League of Legends.
As a game, it is the most successful if it can capture the largest number of netizens in the most interesting and convenient way. It doesn't matter what college students are, the user is the user, and the more users, the more successful.
Just one and a half months after its launch, Haogai officially announced the player data of League of Legends.
The number of registrations was not released for some reason, but it can be judged by the number of servers, and the base and the rate of addition are very amazing.
Officially, the number of active users and the highest number of people online are announced.
The newborn League of Legends has more than 2 million active people and a maximum of 500,000 concurrent online users.
All the data needs to be compared to be meaningful.
At present, the two most popular online games in China, World of Warcraft, before the shutdown, released data from Jiucheng, the number of active users exceeded 5 million, and the highest number of simultaneous online users was about 1.2 million;
The record of the highest number of simultaneous online games in China was created by Journey to the West in 08, 1.66 million.
In comparison, League of Legends is only between one-third and one-half of the size of these two games.
However, whether it is World of Warcraft or Journey to the West, the operation time is dozens of times that of League of Legends!
Without contrast, there is no harm.
Also as a competitive game, it should be said that before the advent of League of Legends, the flagship work of domestic competitive games, Dota, the highest number of simultaneous online records, is 680,000.
In other words, League of Legends, which has only been online for a month and a half, has already caught up with DOTA.
According to its development speed, replacing Dota as the No. 1 competitive game in China is already a real 'just around the corner'.
In fact, judging from the game revenue data released by Duoplay, in the past month and a half, the revenue of League of Legends is equal to the revenue of Dota for about three months under normal circumstances.
It is worth mentioning that at present, there is only one recharge channel for domestic heroes, and that is the third-party payment software of Zelianke, Zepay.
