Chapter 276: Take the power of Blizzard

"yes, I think too. ~”

When Mike heard Chen Jia mention opening the Demon Beast, he felt very good.

"What do you think of if Tang Dynasty Network launches a product with a Warcraft series?"

At this time, Chen Jiayi said.

World of Warcraft, as everyone knows in later generations, is an online game opened by Blizzard Entertainment. This game has brought more than 10 million concurrent online players around the world. Moreover, because it is a point card charge. So, Blizzard's World of Warcraft is actually one of the most profitable games in the world. As a result, Blizzard increased his value to tens of billions of dollars with the success of a World of Warcraft.

Of course, when the later generations tasted the sweetness of Blizzard, he had a new plan. For example, adapting Diablo. In addition, an auction setting has been added to Diablo. In other words, players can use the Diablo platform to purchase virtual equipment in the game with real-life money. Of course, players can also auction virtual items through Diablo's platform to get real-life money.

This one mode greatly stabbed the popularity of the game. However, with Blizzard's opening progress, it was not launched until 2o11. Perhaps, this Diablo is a product used to inherit the World of Warcraft. At least, Diablo shouldn't be out until World of Warcraft doesn't have 1ù out of exhaustion. Otherwise, wouldn't it be a grab for its own market.

Now Chen Jia opened his mouth and mentioned opening an online game with Warcraft as the genre. He just wanted to give it a try, how would Mike feel? Because, with Warcraft as the genre of games, now Blizzard already has a Warcraft series. Strictly speaking, Blizzard is the best developer to develop online games based on the Warcraft genre.

"I think that with the game production level of the Tang Dynasty network, I will definitely be able to open an online game that is popular all over the world......"

Although Blizzard has no plans for an online game now, it doesn't mean that Mike doesn't want to open it. Moreover, he also studied the money earned by the Tang Dynasty network in online games. It can be said that they make more money than their competitive games. Of course, if Warcraft 3 is launched, it will be a different story. ~

Because, they have a strong faith in the Frozen Throne. Moreover, their belief is to do a good job in strategic competitive games. So, for Mike. Even if there is an online game plan, the idea is not very strong now. Chen Jiayi saw this between the lines.

Hiding the excitement in his heart, he knew that Mike might not be interested in online games now. But, after a year or two. Even Blizzard, who is not very interested in online games, makes online games in order to make money. Moreover, starting an online game does not conflict with their continued development of strategy games.

"Haha, my friend, I thought, how could the online game plan be without you. Well, what I'd like to say is that we in the Tang Dynasty network want to bring Warcraft, including Diablo Breaker...... What do you think of the adaptation into an online game? ”

"Let me think?"

That's when Mike started to think.

Because, although Blizzard has no plans to open online games, the future is not certain. However, the current Tang Dynasty network seems to be eyeing this market. This is not a good thing, although Blizzard and Tang Dynasty Network are still allies. However, alliances do not share everything with each other.

Mike also has to look out for Blizzard's interests.

"Okay, absolutely."

Chen Jiayi gave Mike 5 minutes, but Chen Jiayi didn't want Mike to think about it too long, and he wanted to transmit his thoughts to him first. Otherwise, he will sum it up by himself, and then discuss it with the company. I'm afraid that when the time comes, the matter of this online game will be boundless. Although, Chen Jiayi can also use other methods to take away the Warcraft. However, this hurts and angers. If you can win the adaptation rights of Blizzard's online game in a harmonious situation. Then, for the Tang Dynasty network, it is really a big victory of the day.

"Mike, I think, Blizzard is a great game company. Whether it's StarCraft before, or Diablo, or now Warcraft: The Frozen Throne. In my opinion, Blizzard has done a better job than others when it comes to strategy games. We'd also like to have more competitive game companies like Blizzard. To be honest, we also want to enter competitive games, but our biggest foundation is still online games. Therefore, we do not imitate our strengths. Blizzard continues to develop competitive games, while we at Tang Dynasty Network continue to open online game ......", first of all, Chen Jiayi wants to transfer Mike to the initial goal of his own company and change Mike's sight.

"That's a good point."

Mike thought for a moment. He co-founded Blizzard with Allen to create a competitive strategy game. God forbid, for now, Blizzard has achieved a little bit. Especially with this Warcraft 3 in collaboration with Tang Dynasty Network, Mike is confident that he will take Blizzard to the next level.

If Blizzard had changed its mind, it would have continued to play strategy games. I'm afraid that when the time comes, whether the quality of your game can be guaranteed, that's a question. After Warcraft 3 is released, what else can Blizzard drive?

In fact, it was precisely because of this that Blizzard later tasted it in World of Warcraft. All of a sudden, he devoted himself to the online game market, including the follow-up of World of Warcraft, and the development of the new game Diablo, which is StarCraft O1, has also been put on the plan. On the other hand, Warcraft 4 has been rumored in the market. However, until 2o11, Blizzard officials still stated that there is no plan for Warcraft 4 on the agenda. Because, they can't keep busy.

"Imagine if Blizzard had been on the market, would it have been as successful as it is now?"

It's 2oo3 years now, and no one knows that World of Warcraft can reach more than 10 million online people in the global market. Even Mike, who is very confident in Blizzard's games, doesn't dare to imagine. Because, now the world market is the world of the Chinese. Among them, the games of Europe, America, Japan, South Korea and other countries have been defeated successively.

No matter how strong Blizzard is, can it achieve the same number of online users as it does on an ethereal journey? The answer is, Mike doesn't know either. Of course, Mike faked it for a moment. And even if it did, so what? An online game can only bring Blizzard a few hundred million yuan, which is too far from Warcraft 3.

In this comparison, this online game has a lot of time, and it doesn't make much money.

"Chen, I understand what you mean. Okay, I'll think about it. ”

Mike had been persuaded by Chen Jiayi, but he couldn't have agreed so quickly. Because, Blizzard is not his alone. He also had to continue to discuss this matter with Allen.

"Okay, no problem at all, I'm waiting for your good news."

Seeing this, Chen Jiayi knew that the explanation he had just explained had slightly hit Mike's plan. After all, they don't really attach much importance to online games in the first place. It was only later that the money was earned, and then the attack began. For them now, the most important thing is to focus on strategy games. For example, the current Warcraft 3, which is a game that is about to take off for Blizzard.

However, Warcraft 3 is not a company from Blizzard, and he also has half of the credit for the Tang Dynasty network.

After the two finished speaking, Chen Jiayi and Mike ended this conversation.

Now Chen Jiayi is in a very good mood, because even if he can't acquire Blizzard Entertainment for the time being. Then, grasping all the game adaptation rights under Blizzard in your own hands is almost the same as acquiring Blizzard through Jinghe. Moreover, this flip action basically doesn't take much money.

When the time comes, the World of Warcraft launched in later generations will no longer belong to Blizzard, but to the Tang Dynasty Network.

Well, I'm going to let people around the world see the power of this "game". Yes, the power of this game is more than just a money-making machine. Moreover, he can also import Chinese culture to all corners of the world, slowly, bit by bit. This is also an important way for Chen Jiayi to spread Chinese culture through games.

……

United States.

Today, Mike and Alan are rarely available, and they meet up to fish together on the weekend.

"Alan, it's been a long time since we've had an easy time together."

Since Allen resigned as president, neither of them has had much time in this period of time. But fortunately, the current Warcraft 3 is finally completed. Later, there is the sales thing, which has little to do with "Allen" for him. At this time, Mike had time to go fishing with Alan in such a good mood.

"yes, it's easy."

It's a nice feeling, it's a nice feeling to be done, and Alan enjoys it.

The two talked about it, and they enjoyed it very much.

"That's a big one."

At this time, after more than ten minutes of waiting, Mike finally caught a big fish.

"Alan, Chen had a conversation with me yesterday and wanted to adapt our game into an online game, what do you think? ”

Mike, who continued to lower the rod while preparing the bait, said.

"Online games?"

"Yes, the most proficient thing in the Tang Dynasty network is online games." , Mike wants to hear what Eren means, because, Blizzard belongs to the two of them.

"Well, I feel it too."

When Tang Dynasty Network sent some technical members, Allen knew that these technicians did not have much experience in strategy games. Fortunately, their skills are good, and after a lot of cooperation, they have grown rapidly. Moreover, the creativity of the Chinese is really bang. A lot of the time, Alan has to be amazed by their creativity.

"Didn't you think that we could also play online games?"

At this time, Mike saw that Alan didn't seem to understand, and reminded him.

"Shall we drive?"

At this time, Eren woke up. Then he shook his head, "Oh, sorry, I never thought about it. ”

Indeed, Allen has an amazing talent when it comes to strategy games. Moreover, he is a technomaniac. Otherwise, he wouldn't even want to be the president and throw it directly to Mike. Now when it comes to online games, to be honest, for Allen, he never thought about it. Even now, he thinks that he will not open an online game in the future. Because, like online games, there is no technology, no creative game products. If Alan Kai, it is better to kill him.

"Okay, I know what you mean."

Mike smiled wryly, then said no more and continued fishing with Alan.
