Chapter 262: The battle for online games between China and South Korea
This message seems to be reasonable and reasonable for the South Korean ACTOZ company. However, for the Chinese, isn't the Korean ACTOZ company clearly bullying us Chinese? As a result, as soon as the topic was issued, countless Chinese people began to swear to attack South Korea's Actoz company.
"It must be your actoz company that has done some shady deeds that will cause Shanda Network to default on its fees. I suggest you search and see what actoz has done......"
Regardless of whether Shanda Network is right or not, Shanda Network is still a game company for Chinese people. Even if the Korean ACTOZ company is reasonable, TMD's is also a Korean stick. The Chinese people have always been very cold to South Korea and the two countries, and seeing that Shanda Network is being bullied, how can they give up. All of a sudden, many netizens frantically mocked the South Korean ACTOZ company and spat violently.
"A broken game, what is there to be proud of. You really regard your legend as a treasure, if it weren't for the acquisition of Shanda by the Tang Dynasty Company, would the legend be so hot in China. Take a look at other Korean games, the highest online NetEase Genie is only 200,000. None of the others had more than 100,000 people. Such a game is given to me to play, and I don't play it...... It is recommended that in the future, you should not play the games that actoz company has represented in China, and play ethereal if you want to play, and play fantasy westward journey if you want to play. ”
Although the legend is very popular, the ethereal journey and the fantasy journey to the west are even more popular. There is a legend of Actoz that is so arrogant that it unilaterally terminates the agency contract, which is really tolerable, which is unbearable.
"Brothers, this is entirely because the Korean stick leaked the legendary source code, causing the emergence of domestic private servers. Shanda stopped sharing with Actoz, a game company with such a sinister heart, and suggested that domestic game companies should no longer represent Actoz's products......"
At this time, a player broke the news that the appearance of the private server was secretly leaked by Actoz.
Moreover, he swore on the side, saying that Actoz had revealed to Shanda that it wanted to increase the royalty. Shanda naturally disagreed, the reason is that it is not because of the excellent game of Legend that the current legend is popular, but because Shanda Company operates effectively, and after the acquisition of Tang Dynasty Company, domestic players love the house and Wu, and the legend is also hot. Seeing that the threat could not be achieved, Actoz leaked the legendary source code without permission. And develop a legend 3 that is exactly the same as the bloody legend, ready to act as an agent for Guangtong, Shanda refused to share ...... At this point, everyone began to understand.
"NND, it turns out that Korean sticks are so insidious. The blackmail on the surface failed, and the source code was leaked to hit Shanda Network. Moreover, more development of copycat varieties crush the bloody legend. Now the unilateral interruption of the agreement, one link after another, is extremely vicious. ”
These players don't know where the news came from, and all of a sudden, the truth of this incident was revealed.
When everyone saw this, they hated the Korean ACTOZ company even more. Most of the messages in the online media are scolding Actoz. Even with Guangtong Company, they hated it. Directly said, everyone must not play the legend of Guangtong agent 3 in the future. This Legend 3 is exactly what Actoz is all about. If you play, in the end, people will see Legend 3 rise again, and they will directly blackmail our game companies...... This craze suddenly became an anti-Korean game craze.
Originally, your Korean online game is okay, maybe others can't come back, a good game is so lethal, it's not at all that you want to go back. It's a pity that the current Korean games are worse than the domestic games. Moreover, it also makes these three bad tricks. A large number of patriotic young people couldn't stand it, and they shouted and scolded the Korean ACTOZ company, and said directly, you rotten games take back to South Korea and play them yourself. We have countless domestic games, and I want your games to be hairy...... In addition, some other Korean games that are agents to China have also dropped a few percent of their online numbers.
Seeing that the enthusiasm of netizens had been ignited, Shanda Network directly made efforts to sue Actoz for leaking the source code in the Singapore Court of Arbitration, which led to the emergence of private servers in China, resulting in a significant decline in the number of legendary online users. The Singapore Court of Arbitration has already accepted the case and will soon hear the case.
The news has just broke, and the previous truth has been proven in an instant.
Actoz, don't say we've wronged you. Look, the Singapore court has taken up the case, Actoz you are waiting to be the defendant. All of a sudden, domestic netizens were even more excited. While scolding Actoz Company, he praised the ambition of Shanda Network.
"Yes, it's going to kill them."
Chinese people are fed up with a large number of foreign companies suing China, and now, it is the turn of Chinese companies to sue them directly. This kind of mood is more enjoyable than PK killing people in the game.
In addition, after Shanda Company publicized it in public opinion, it also put great effort into the legendary private server.
Although Chen Tianqiao accepted Chen Jiayi's suggestion to change the legendary charging model to a prop fee. However, this one change requires a modification of the entire game. For example, what props to add and what gameplay to open. This kind of thing seems simple, but when it comes to the profitability of the game in the future, Shanda has to plan it carefully.
Fortunately, Bubble Hall already had experience before, like selling fashion and the like. Even if this large pile of decorations does not belong to half of the surname, countless players will spend crazy money to buy them. Moreover, Shanda has done it extremely well in terms of decoration this time. Not only are the characters decorated, but even the summoned Wangcai is also decorated. Others, like breaking into the Heavenly Palace, saving the princess, double experience cards, etc., are also necessary.
Especially the double experience card, this one used to sell very hot, and I have never heard players say that it disrupts the balance of the game.
In fact, back in the days when there were a lot of free games, many people didn't have any opinions on the charging of props. The reason why everyone didn't get used to free games later was that there were a lot of old birds clamoring there. Because, they came out of the free games. A few years later, it was a lot of free games. Every time I enter the game, I am abused half to death by others.
As a result, the old birds are looking forward to the paid game. They believe that paid games are fairer.
Unfortunately, there is no such thing as fairness, only relative fairness. It's impossible for a game company to give up a bunch of rookies in order to take care of a small group of hardcore gamers. In fact, many rookies are the source of income for the game. Of course, online games have to go through this process. As for what it will look like in the future, everything is based on the market.
Chen Jiayi thinks that the monthly card plus free model is a good charging project.
Now it is clear that free-to-play games are more adapted to the market.
Unfortunately, these settings take at least a month or two to do. But the time of the past two months is enough to let a large number of legendary official server players transfer to the private server, and in order to retain these players, a large number of activities have been held. The most meaningful thing is the scramble for the Shabak event, and this scramble for the Shabak event. At Chen Jiayi's suggestion, Shanda directly offered a cash reward.
Seeing no, Shanda Company directly declared, "Whoever can defend Shacheng for a month will get 5,000 yuan." ”
This idea is still Chen Jiayi's journey idea with reference to the future market.
Shi Yuzhu is really a genius, no wonder he can make the rumors of the journey operation. Since then, relying on a journey, his giant group has been reborn. Like rewarding gamers with renminbi and the like, he made it up. In addition, the third-generation charging model of later generations was also developed by him.
5,000 pieces are smashed out, which looks like a lot. But if you really calculate it, it's actually not much, and if a guild divides it equally, it won't get much money. However, smashing out 5,000 yuan at once is really attractive. Moreover, as soon as this event was launched, it attracted many players.
Look, now you can make money playing online games. In a server, 5,000 yuan a month is taken out, which is a small amount of money, and Shanda can still afford it. So, under the leadership of the president, the domestic guild rushed to the highest honor of Nasha City and the 5,000 yuan bonus. Some friends who are ready to play private clothes are left in the official uniforms.
At the very least, I have to finish attacking Sand City this month before going to play.
These are all positive activities.
As an excellent game company with the fine tradition of the Tang Dynasty company, how can it be possible to do this obvious thing? Without Chen Jiayi's instructions, Chen Tianqiao knew what to do. In order to crack down on domestic private servers, Shanda Network organized more than a dozen technical members to attack the servers of Longxing World.
This attack is not an invasion, so as not to cause trouble. It's directly a normal access, but this normal access is too large, and countless robots have all poured into the Longxing World server, and their private server server is relatively bad. How can it be compared with Shanda, just get a lot of robots, and the private server will burst the card.
In addition, the crazy IP stream access and poor data circulation directly made many private server players stare at the computer. Not to mention that you can't get on, even if you do, you will drop the line instantly. Okay, you said you're a bit of a cow and don't drop the line, but the stuck ones also let the blame directly beat you to death.
Playing like this for a few minutes, I'm afraid it's an inhuman torture for them who are used to playing games that Shanda doesn't card. Half an hour later, a whole bunch of players quit. Of course, the private server management also made an announcement. It is said that it has been maliciously attacked by others, and the server is congested, so it is recommended that you visit it later.
It's just that what players don't know is that this kind of server has the capital, and he actually blocked it for a month. Even if Longxing opened other private servers, it was also congested. Just a month later, private server investors opened dozens of private servers in China in a row, and thought to themselves, look at you to attack. It's a pity that at this time, the bloody legend is today, opening a new chapter in history. Since then, private servers have not been mentioned.
This is naturally a matter of later importance, so I will not mention it here for the time being.
Actoz interrupted the agreement and the private server incident, Shanda Network was not in a hurry, and used its own advantages and the current private server incident to perfectly sue Actoz to the court. Due to the strong publicity, not only domestic netizens despised Actoz's behavior, but also the world media sneered at Actoz.
They believe that although the lawsuit has not yet begun. But, in fact, legendary private clothes have been circulated all over the world. As a legendary developer, Actoz has an inescapable responsibility. This important clue directly put Actoz in a disadvantageous position, and the situation was very unfavorable. So much so that Guangtong Company was going to sign a peace agreement with Actoz Company to act as an agent for Legend 3, but because of this lawsuit, it was forced to stop.
The market is waiting to see if Shanda Network will assert its power, or if Actoz will in fact be wronged. Before the truth is revealed, a company like Guangtong doesn't dare to have any thoughts about the legend. Otherwise, if the Singapore company determines that Actoz deliberately leaked, it will be in trouble. Not only did he have trouble, but he also signed a company with such no trust in the future. Even if his products can sell well, he may end up being blackmailed by Actoz again.
Things have come to such a situation, and Actoz is also unprecedented.
In response to the incident, Actoz did propose to Shanda Network about raising the share agreement. Of course, they also made a two-handed arrangement. If Shanda does not agree, then Actoz will be after the end of the peace agreement. Transferred the agency rights of Legend to an online game company in China. If you use this as a threat, you are not afraid that Shanda will not agree.
It's a pity, after all calculations, in July 2002, the legendary source code was leaked, and this incident directly fell to Shanda's face, and the current private server incident was even more taken advantage of by Shanda. A complaint was filed against Actoz before the Singapore Court of Arbitration.
The current actoz company, that is hard to say. I didn't expect Shanda's PR force to be so tough. Not to mention the Chinese media, even the world media, which has nothing to do with this matter, are also involved. Moreover, most of the media has been skeptical of Actoz.
This is a bad situation for Actoz, and if it continues, the Singapore arbitration institution may be biased in favor of Shanda. At this time, Actoz could not sit still and began a large-scale public relations campaign before the hearing of the Singapore arbitration institution. They are trying to get back in the media, or ACTOZ will have to lose this lawsuit.
In the face of the PR campaign of Actoz in South Korea, the world media is very interested in them. They wanted to interview the battle between China and South Korea over online games, and what would be the final result? Even the domestic media expressed strong interest when they learned that the South Korean ACTOZ company was going to come forward to explain the matter, including the private service incident.
Perhaps, the struggle between China and South Korea today may be recorded in the history of the development of online games.
