Du Ziteng came to the United States this time not only to participate in E3, but also to take a ride. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info that is the epoch-making online ---game "World of Warcraft" that Blizzard Entertainment is already developing and will soon be in the future. In his previous life, Du Ziteng read a novel, and there was a plot in that novel that the protagonist took advantage of Blizzard's desire to develop the game World of Warcraft before he got the network development right of Warcraft to develop World of Warcraft, and then made a lot of profits. Du Ziteng also planned to do the same when he came to the United States this time.

World of Warcraft is the first online game produced by the famous game company Blizzard Entertainment, which is a massively multiplayer online role-playing game. The game is based on the plot of the company's real-time strategy game "Warcraft" as the historical background, relying on the historical events and heroes of Warcraft, World of Warcraft has a complete historical background timeline. [1] Players go on adventures in World of Warcraft, complete quests, new adventures, explore unknown worlds, conquer monsters, and more.

World of Warcraft was released in North America in 2004 and began to be released in the United States, New Zealand, Canada, Australia, and Mexico on November 23 of the same year. By the end of 2008, there were more than 11.5 million paying users of World of Warcraft worldwide, and it successfully broke the Guinness Book of World Records. In April 2008, World of Warcraft had a 62% share of the MMORPG market. [2] As of January 2014, the total number of accounts created in the world has exceeded 100 million (including demo accounts), and the number of characters has reached 500 million. A total of 244 countries and territories play World of Warcraft, including Antarctica, the Bahamas, Christmas Island, and the Tokelau Islands.

It wasn't until 2013 that it was surpassed by the League of Legends game developed by Riot Games.

And in 2016, World of Warcraft was made into a big movie. The special effects of this movie are quite okay, as for the plot...... Hehe. But the box office is still quite good. -

But who knew that at the time of this E3, Blizzard TMD had already announced part of the development video of World of Warcraft, and won the Best Online Game Award. It turned out that Blizzard had been secretly developing it for years. This means that Du Ziteng's idea of buying the online copyright has failed. However, Du Ziteng is not such an easy person to give up. So he contacted Blizzard Entertainment. I want to see if I can co-develop with Blizzard to get a piece of the pie.

"Hi, hello, I'm Du Ziteng," Du Ziteng greeted Mike, Blizzard's president.

"Hello, I'm Mike, the president of Mike Blizzard"

"A few days ago, your company showed the game "Warcraft 3: The Frozen Throne", I feel that this game is very good, and I feel that it will definitely be a big hit." Du Ziteng said

"Hehe, thank you for your love of our game, I'm very confident in our game," Mike said confidently.

Judging from the statistics of later generations, Warcraft 3 sold 5.5 million units in the first two weeks of its release, of which 4.5 million units were directly ordered by players. This is a very scary statistic, and it is known that no single-player game has achieved such results until 2016.

"Actually, this is my visit to your company, and I am more interested in the World of Warcraft video released by your company," Du Ziteng expressed his intention.

"I don't know, what Mr. Du thinks," Mike asked

"I don't know what your company thinks of the "Zhuxian OL" we developed," Du Ziteng asked

"Your 'Zhu Xian OL' is very popular in Asia, which is very good, but this kind of game with a Xianxia background is not easy to be accepted by players in Europe and the United States," Mike said

"It seems that you still recognize the strength of our company. I don't think your company has fully developed this game, and your company has never had experience in developing online games. And we have developed an online game "Zhuxian OL" that is popular in Asia, and I believe that we are complementary to each other. I really like the background of the Warcraft game, so I want your company to work together to develop this game," said Du Ziteng.

"Thank you Mr. Du for your kindness, but we already have a comprehensive idea of the development of this game, so we don't have the idea of cooperating with other companies. And even for the first time I believe we can do our best, because we're Blizzard. Mike said

Hearing this, Du Ziteng knew that this hitchhike would not be possible. So I said, 'Then I hope to have the opportunity to cooperate with your company next time.'"

"Hehe, Mr. Du, in fact, our two companies still have the opportunity to cooperate. If we develop this game, I would like to ask your company to act as an agent for our operation of this game in China or Asia. Mike said. Although Mike is very confident in the games developed by his company, after all, the games have not been developed and have not been tested by the market. No one knows how. When Blizzard first started running World of Warcraft, they didn't expect the game to be popular all over the world, and their best prediction was 5 million registered users.

From Mike's point of view, i Fat Game Entertainment is still quite influential in Asia. If i Fat Game Entertainment Company acts as an agent for World of Warcraft, it can give this game an extra layer of protection.

"I'm sorry, but our company is a company that develops its own games, and our company's purpose is to make the most fun games. We're not that kind of gaming agency. We won't represent any game, even if it's a masterpiece" Du Ziteng directly rejected Mike's proposal.

In Du Ziteng's opinion, it would be too embarrassing to see that the reborn had to represent the games of other companies. He was reborn to revitalize the domestic game and entertainment industry. If you have participated in the development of World of Warcraft for so long, you can add some Chinese cultural elements to the game, which can not only exercise the ability of employees, but also spread Chinese culture, but only if you are acting as an agent for the game. Then just help other cultures invade the culture of China. He didn't want to be a game agency like Nine Cities. He wants to develop his own games and spread the culture of China.

"Then it seems that we don't have a chance to cooperate for the time being, and I hope to cooperate again if we have the opportunity in the future," Mike said regretfully.

..........................

This time, the idea of cooperating with Blizzard to develop "World of Warcraft" broke down like this, but Du Ziteng also had a plan for this. He also has an online game masterpiece in mind that is enough to fight against Warcraft, but in fact, that game is not just an online game. It's a combination of stand-alone and online games.
