Chapter 178 Agency Disputes
Super War now has a military section, which was opened at the request of the military. Access to this area is to obtain at least the Commander medal or above, which means that you must fully pass the Commander level mission in a single level. So up to now, it has been all military figures who have entered this area, and they have sharpened their military command skills in it.
"Does the military also recognize the game? Does that mean the game has reached a level where it's realistic? ”
This incident surprised the media, and they rushed to report it, published various comments, and at the same time, it also made more people aware of the game. Then these people entered the game with doubts and disbelief, and finally some stayed, while others shook their heads and said they couldn't adapt to this style of command.
As the level of some people increases, the game becomes more and more complicated, and the cooperation of multiple arms and the four-dimensional engagement mode of land, sea, air and space make these soldiers feel even more inexplicably excited. But the strength of the opponent also made them feel more competitive and competitive, and they soaked in this game in their spare time.
With the spread of this situation in the media, some foreign political axes have also begun to pay attention to it. The U.S. military, after careful and meticulous research, discovered a fact that frustrated them. Then, with the same combat power, if the other side uses this computer as the military commander-in-chief, then they will be defeated. Because even if all the generals and think tanks of the United States are gathered together, they will not be able to break through any of the marshal checkpoints, and it can be said that the marshal checkpoint has become a nightmare for the US [***] side.
"What a bunch of crazy people, who the hell developed the game? Could it be the Chinese military? Otherwise, how can you know so much about the military! ”
A general and his subordinates once again failed to challenge the marshal's level, and threw up his hat angrily. This game has disadvantages for them, although there are not many staff officers who can understand Chinese, but they can make up some of them, but there are not many who can speak Chinese fluently.
And this damn game only recognizes Chinese, and other languages can't play a role, which leads to some orders that can't be given in time when playing the game. The battlefield is changing rapidly, and this time is enough time for them to be deadly, not to mention that the opponent's AI is so high that it is awe-inspiring.
"No, I'm going crazy looking at these square words! General, can't you just get the technical department to translate this game into English? ”
One of the general's staff officers couldn't stand it anymore, and the square words were flying in front of his eyes, and they were almost connected.
"Wouldn't I know? But the bastards in the tech department actually said that they couldn't decode the game, so we can only play the game through the Internet connection to the Chinese website. ”
Originally, it was forbidden to connect to the Internet, but in order to test the game, the U.S. [***] side deliberately opened up a safe area and summoned some generals and staff officers to come in. This game is weird, even playing single-player mode requires an internet connection, otherwise it won't start properly.
If you want to talk about a simulated command system, the United States is not without it, but it is definitely not so real, and the most important thing is that the enemy AI they designed can never be as weird and changeable as "Super War", which can make these generals defeated, which is a rare training opportunity.
"No way, before introducing this game, let's be patient for the time being."
Another general and his men took over from the previous group, and although the square words were unbearable, they were still happy to fight with first-class military commanders. They even made a private bet on who would be able to pass any of the marshal's levels. The bets are now being raised layer by layer, but unfortunately no one has been able to take them up yet.
The introduction of this game is now proceeding in an orderly manner. Although "Super War" did not close the IP permission abroad, but this full screen of Chinese is really not easy to promote, is it difficult to let the non-commissioned officers learn Chinese? The technical department deciphered the downloaded game, but I didn't expect it to be uncrackable, so it couldn't be 'British'.
So in the end, the White House decided to introduce this game, but it was definitely not possible for the political axe to come forward directly, so John, a game dealer who had contact with the half-house school, became the best communication channel, and he was recruited as soon as he was called by the White House.
"Mr. John, I invited you here this time to invite you to China to do something."
"Oh no, Mr. President, I'm glad to be entertained by the White House, but I wouldn't do anything like a spy.
Before John could finish listening, he rejected the president's request. Just kidding, although 007 in the movie is quite chic, real agents will not be so showy, and if they are caught, it will be even more tragic. Now that John has lived a good life, why bother with such a thing?
"No, no, no, you misunderstood me, Mr. John. It's definitely not an act of espionage, I just want to go to Hantaku University, take the North American representation of this game, and release it domestically, that's all. ”
As he spoke, the president asked someone to bring over a notebook, which showed the game "Super War".
"Mr. President, I've seen this game too. But this kind of war command game is too difficult.,The number of players who can play is small.,And the main function is online battles.,I'm just doing a stand-alone part.,If you want to play an online game, it's better to find an online game agent.。 ”
Speaking of business, John immediately became energetic, carefully analyzing the weaknesses of this game. But the purpose of the president and the military is not to make money at all, but to train their own military talents, so these shortcomings can be completely ignored.
"Mr. John, we just asked you to be an online game agent and represent this game. All the funds needed will be paid by us, and there will be a bonus for you afterwards, do you think this is okay? ”
Hearing this condition, John was a little moved. The price of the agent online game is quite high, and I am worried that there is no way to further establish a good relationship with the half-house university, and it would be great if I could use this agent to form a closer partner with the half-house university. Anyway, it's not your own money, so it's not distressing to spend it at all, and it's definitely good for the company to help the political axe, and you can get another amount of money afterwards, which can be said to be more than one stone.
"Well, Mr. President, I'm willing to go to China for the sake of the United States. Do you need any more strings attached to this proxy? ”
"First, we need to play English culture, which is the most basic requirement. Second, if possible, you invite the game developer to the U.S. as a game agent. ”
The president would love to meet the game developer, who is able to make a game that cannot be deciphered by the technical departments of the United States, and the computer level is already very high. It would be great if it could be incorporated into the United States, and if a system with the same AI could be developed and installed in a strategic computer, then the strength of the United States would be greatly enhanced.
In this way, John took the task and got on the plane again and went to Hanzhai University in Shanghai. Coincidentally, he and the domestic online game operators met at Hanzhai University on the same day.
……………………………………… In the conference room of Banzhai University, Zhou Yixuan looked at these people in front of him with some headache. It's a strange coincidence, so many people come at the same time, and they all have the same purpose, which is really troubling.
"Colleagues in the industry, it's not that I don't let go of the agency of this game, the server requirements of this game are very high, I'm afraid you won't be able to run it successfully."
Zhou Yixuan's words are true, the aspects involved in this game are too large, if it weren't for the glasses girl using that huge server lineup as the basis, it wouldn't be able to run at all, which is why "Super War" must have a network to run.
However, Zhou Yixuan's words are obviously not believed by many people, it is just a game, how can it be possible to use any server? Besides, who here doesn't have a huge net worth, and it's a big deal to add some servers soon?
"I know you don't believe me, so I'm going to apply to the half-house immortal and show you a copy of the data of Super War."
Seeing everyone's suspicious expressions, Zhou Yixuan had no choice but to go to the half-house immortal for help. Those present looked at John and bowed their heads in silence. Why are foreigners coming? Is there still a foreign game company that wants to represent China's online games? China has been acting as an agent for foreign online games for many years, and I haven't heard of any foreign agents, so it's really arrogant to talk about it.
Soon Zhou Yixuan came back with a report and sent them to everyone present. These people are more knowledgeable, and they know through the report that the operation of this game requires a large number of servers, although these quantities are not impossible to take, but the investment is too large and the cost is too high, and the profit is minimal, and if a bad one may lead to a loss.
"Everyone has seen that our Hanzhai University originally didn't want to operate an online game, but after this game was made, we found that it couldn't bring profits to the operator, so we had to operate it ourselves."
These domestic operators had to regretfully give up the game, and it was not interesting to compete for a game without profit, so they left Hanzhai University after a polite look. John was the only one sitting in his chair, still looking like an old god was there.
"Mr. John, what are you?"
"Mr. Zhou, I'm very optimistic about this game. Even with all the cost, I decided to represent the game and let's jump right into the negotiation process! ”
John thought that it was the American political axe that was going to make this game, so he wouldn't even be able to get these servers, so he didn't report it, and directly applied to Zhou Yixuan for agency.
This is really unexpected by Zhou Yixuan, this gringo is so confident in this game? However, since John insisted so much, Zhou Yixuan was not able to stop him more, so he called Xie Chaochao from the Ministry of Commerce to prepare to negotiate with John. In the end, John bought out the agency in North America at a high price, which can be said to be the first in history.
"Mr. John, what I mean is that we will set up a foreign language area at Hantaku University, and you only need to pay a certain server fee on a regular basis. This can save you a lot of investment, I don't know if you think this kind of cooperation is possible? ”
Xie Chaochao's proposal was arranged by Zhou Yixuan, and John said that it was also the first foreign partner unit of Hanzhai University, so he couldn't be allowed to take such a big risk.
Zhou Yixuan's proposal is indeed safer, if he loses money, he can withdraw it in time, if John really wants to do it himself, maybe he will really agree. However, this was for the sake of the American political axe, and John had no choice but to make up his own mind, so John had to put the negotiations on hold for the time being, and wait until he went back to the hotel to ask the opinion of the American side.
And so the first day of negotiations ended.
To say that the Chinese news media has a really sensitive nose, the news that John wants to represent Chinese online games was quickly captured by some media, and then he ran to John's hotel to ask John for verification. John generously acknowledged the news and said that he would do further in-depth cooperation with Hantaku University in the future.
In the evening, the news was broadcast on various economic channels, and the next day's newspaper reported the incident in more detail. Internet news is not far behind, especially websites related to game information, which are overwhelmingly publicized this news.
This is a major breakthrough in China's online game industry, and Hanzhai University can be regarded as going international this time. Netizens are very happy, and more people are entering this game to see what kind of game it is, and it will be favored by American game developers.
It's a pity that everyone doesn't know the truth of the matter. By normal commercial standards, the game would never have been represented, and despite its excellent performance, the narrowness of the audience was a fatal flaw. This trip to the world can only be said to be an accident.
After the political axe learned the news, it also discussed it urgently. This simulated command system is so good that they all intend to use it as the main tool for training combat commanders, so these people naturally don't want foreigners to take it too.
"This simulation system is really good, and it is estimated that this is also the foreign side that will make such a decision when they see the value in it. But don't worry too much, they're practicing, and we're not idle. And it is also a valuable experience to be able to let the younger generation of people have a discussion with foreign parties on this platform. ”
The chief thought about it for a while, and decided to let it go. The half-house immortals have handed over a set of real military simulated command systems to them, which is more complex and changeable than the current ones on the Internet, and the AI is also more human-oriented, which is the main training subject for the field commanders of the [***] team now.
"So, as long as you ask Hantaku University not to distinguish between the two sides, so that they can communicate with each other in the big platform of the Internet?"
"Yes, contact the half-house immortals."
…………………………………………… The next day, negotiations began again. John has contacted the country, and the president's request is to bring the game back to the United States, and they still don't give up on the research of the game, because the computer knowledge in it can be said to be a treasure trove.
And the Hantaku University also received the advice of the Hantaku Immortals, and agreed to let the foreign side bring back the game. However, there is an added requirement that the two sides share data and everyone can enter the same game.
John consulted again and finally agreed to the request. Because the US side has also decided to open this game for free, it will be helpful to recruit some military talents in China, so that there will be no disagreement between the two sides between charging and free, and the cooperation zone is also feasible.
The two sides reached an agreement, and the negotiations were over, and the next step was to discuss some details.
"I wonder how long it will take for you to 'Engliminate'?"
"It's not difficult, it can be solved on the same day. However, the re-recording of the voice can only be done by yourself, and the voice file can be replaced at that time. ”
Because the dubbing department does not have professional English training, it is impossible to conduct English dubbing, so only John himself will go back and do this part. The services on both sides are the same, but if it is launched through North America, all languages are English, and if it is launched through Hanzhai University, it will be Chinese.
"By the way, I want to invite the developer of this game to the United States, I wonder if that's okay? Due to various factors such as publicity, the developer was required to participate in some interviews with game magazines and attend some promotional events. ”
It was only in the end that John made this request. Anyway, this request of the president is not mandatory, so I don't care too much.
"I'm sorry, but I haven't even met the developer of this game, and the connection between him and Hantaku University was made through the code name Hantaku Immortal. So at best, I can only help you convey it, but I can't make a decision. ”
Zhou Yixuan himself seems to have seen a half-house immortal once, but he has not had this blessing so far. Although he said that he would help convey it, according to the style of the half-house immortals, it is estimated that nine out of nine are no play. Fortunately, John was not reluctant, but just said 'regret' and didn't ask any more. And just when the two sides signed the contract, Zheng Lu, as the protagonist, was taking his subordinate students to have a real-life experience in an empty and closed room at the moment.
"Okay, now let's start making a real village scene, you can walk around and experience the village life, which will be of great help to the game development in the future."
As he spoke, Zheng Lu opened the virtual reality through the school's assistance system. After the lights were turned off, a small village in the south of the Yangtze River with red bricks and green tiles, small bridges and flowing water appeared in front of everyone.
"Wow! It's beautiful! ”
Looking at this beautiful little village, everyone was a little intoxicated. Accustomed to the steel forest in the city, seeing this kind of small village with a strong sense of nostalgia at this moment is naturally a bit eye-opening.
"Silly boy, what are you doing greeting the virtual character?"
A classmate saw an old man approaching him, and out of the habit of respecting the elderly, he saluted.
