Volume 2 Domestic Hegemony Chapter 199 The public beta is imminent
In the beta stage, the virtual plane can be said to have won a big victory, and the game section of the media is all stained with Fantasy Journey to the West, and even many old players who talk about Journey to the West have been guided by public opinion and gradually switched to Fantasy Journey to the West, while NetEase has once again been pushed to the forefront.

"The virtual plane once again suppressed similar online games, and the future online game hegemony was laid."
"NetEase has become a laughing stock, and Journey to the West has been comprehensively suppressed."
Even many financial sectors have begun to report similar news, resulting in a slight decline in NetEase's stock price, and the general game operation has encountered difficulties, which rarely affects the stock price of game companies, but this time NetEase is indeed too back, the two turn-based games are simply the same, but the other party has surpassed it in terms of playability, which also gives Ding Lei a headache.
At present, in order to calm the emotions of shareholders, Ding Lei once again protested to the outside world: "Strictly resist creative plagiarism!" Fantasy Westward Journey is the same as Journey to the West in terms of school and background story, and we have been operating Westward Journey 1 as early as 2000, I think Fantasy Westward Journey is completely copied and plagiarized, I hope that the virtual plane can compensate and stop the game in time! ”
These words fell into Zhao Chenfeng's ears, laughing so much that he almost choked on the tea into his nose, and he didn't care at all about the protest letter released by NetEase, if this is the other party's counterattack, then Zhao Chenfeng can only think that NetEase is really too inferior, not to mention whether the other party has any basis for accusing him of plagiarism, there is no shortage of cases of plagiarism in the entire game history, but some game companies can be better than the blue.
It's like the early gunfight games had CS, and then there were all kinds of gunfight-themed online games, so did the CS development company have to come to the door one by one? and the first turn-based game, Stone Age, will the appearance of magic babies later pull each other to the courtroom to meet? Genres are all created by people, and it is understandable that some people will follow suit and imitate them, and if you want to compete for market share, you can only see how much you can improve the playability of the game by both sides.
Mr. Ding's protest was also ridiculed by many netizens as NetEase's weakest resistance and a precursor to the collapse of the online giant. Now that online games have gradually begun to show their hideous heads, every Internet company has shown a willingness to separate this big cake, and even Tencent, which specializes in instant messaging software, has gradually looked abroad, wanting to acquire a potential online game to open up the game market for itself.
"Boss, at present, the voice of players is very strong, asking the virtual plane to release a new beta test as soon as possible, or start the open beta directly." There is no time limit for the upgrade of Fantasy Journey to the West, so there are a large number of network veterans who have already hit the level of the middle of the version, and the main branch line of the later version is relatively small, and it is still in the stage of research and development.
Zhao Chenfeng dragged his chin, in fact, he still had some concerns in his heart, Ding Lei's performance made him a little wary of NetEase, even the boss of the company has begun to resist shamelessly, it is estimated that there is really no trick, the so-called protest is just a dying struggle, and the characteristic system of Fantasy Journey to the West has withstood the test, and the main branch line in the later stage also has a special person responsible for testing, it is indeed time for the public beta. Thinking of this, Zhao Chenfeng slapped the board and said, "In two weeks, prepare for the public beta." ”
Li Sanjin couldn't suppress the excited smile on his face, the company has been holding his breath during this time, when NetEase took the lead in internal testing, the pressure on the Fantasy Westward Journey Studio was the greatest, because the two games were too similar, there was no possibility of coexistence, and even if there were, one party could only live in the shadow of the other party, this situation was an insult to both companies, so once the Fantasy Westward Journey failed, Zhao Chenfeng would not hesitate to expel Xu Youzhen or merge into another studio, As for the Fantasy Journey to the West, it is only the end of the suspension of the service.
There is only one reason, I can't afford to lose that person. At most, Zhao Chenfeng's early investment was lost, but if it has been operating, this stain will always exist in the company, and the long pain is better than the short pain, and it is better to cut it easily. Fortunately, the virtual plane has succeeded, and NetEase, which is now having a headache, is no longer what Zhao Chenfeng needs to care about.
Soon, the news of the open beta was released on the official website of Fantasy Journey to the West, and many players who did not grab the beta test quota also complained in the forum, feeling that two weeks was too long, and they wished they could come together tomorrow morning, and Fantasy Journey to the West would have been fully open beta.
It's not that Zhao Chenfeng is unwilling to hurry up the public beta, it's just that the company's server still needs to be expanded, and the response to the network is quite enthusiastic, he is afraid that there will be too many players pouring in, causing the game server to be paralyzed, which will give NetEase a chance to fight back, and this kind of accident will also lose some players, so Zhao Chenfeng still gives the company a buffer to avoid mistakes.
At this time, in Kazuo Okamoto's office, the secretary also conveyed the news of the Fantasy Journey to the West open beta, Kazuo Okamoto heard this, his face was a little more hideous, he was also waiting for this opportunity, and said: "Call that group of people." ”
The secretary instructed, turned around and left the office, and after a while, several men wearing thick glasses and sloppy clothes walked in, which were mixed with a few white people, and the smell on their bodies made Kazuo Okamoto frown slightly, if he didn't know their skills, he would probably be regarded as coming out of a garbage dump. Although this group of people is unkempt, their hands are particularly eye-catching, quite slender, and if they fall into the eyes of some hand controls, they must be regarded as holy objects.
"Did you find a vulnerability? Are you sure? "Kazuo Okamoto didn't go around in circles, he could only rely on this group of people to help NetEase turn defeat into victory, there are many characteristic systems of Fantasy Journey to the West, but NetEase can also replicate and update in the future, and Kazuo Okamoto is to help NetEase gain time and find opportunities to disrupt the normal operation of Fantasy Journey to the West.
The man at the head touched the sparse scum, and said with a smile: "Mr. Okamoto, don't worry, it's just a Chinese game company, even if it's the Pentagon of the United States, as long as someone is willing to save us from future troubles, it can also invade, as for finding a game loophole, it's simply a breeze." ”
Internationally notorious, they are considered scum in the online world, with a superb hacking stunt, but never doing anything good, they are the equivalent of online mercenaries, and they can help you do anything if someone is willing to pay for it, whether it's hacking to steal intelligence or attacking a competitor's server to paralyze it.
But this time Kazuo Okamoto didn't come to them to attack the firewall of the virtual plane, but to start with the Fantasy Journey to the West, he wanted to make this game a complete failure of the virtual plane. (To be continued.) )
