"I know."

Zhang Ning nodded, "I was also worried about this before, but we don't have Kyushu now." ”

Kyushu is the focus of Penguin Games' development.

For Kyushu, Penguin Games has also developed a 3D engine specifically for Kyushu.

What he did was to deal with World of Warcraft.

"But, Xiao Ning, although our Kyushu is also a 3D game, in terms of quality, I'm afraid it can't be compared with Warcraft."

"Hehe, Qingqing, it seems that you don't have confidence in our Kyushu."

Zhang Ning was quite relaxed, "Although Kyushu is not as good as Warcraft in terms of quality, Kyushu is not much worse. Moreover, Kyushu is a local game, and there is a series of Kyushu novels, in terms of popularity, it is no worse than Warcraft. And, Qingqing, don't forget. Whether or not a game is played by many people is not just a matter of quality. Back then, our Golden Gu Heroes, the Legend of Mortal Immortal Cultivators, which one surpassed them in quality, but hasn't our game always been in the first place? ”

"It's useless to worry now, Kyushu is like this, instead of worrying about what we can't change, let's think about how to play to our strengths, Yang is strong and avoids weaknesses, even if it's World of Warcraft, what are we afraid of?"

Zhang Ning was calm.

If World of Warcraft had been tested a year ago, perhaps Zhang Ning would have been a little nervous.

But now, Zhang Ning is not nervous at all, on the contrary, he still has a trace of expectation.

As the king of global online games in the future, World of Warcraft, he has to compete with him.

See who is the overlord of the online gaming world.

……

"Mohan, can't wait any longer."

Bobby, one of Blizzard's founders, said to another partner, Mohan.

"Bobby, don't worry, I haven't thought about it yet."

"Mohan, what else to consider. To make it clear, it is impossible for Penguin to return our Warcraft agency. If we spend more time with them, I'm afraid, it will be impossible for Warcraft to be listed in China. You know, China is the world's largest market for online games. Even if we do pay $1 billion in liquidated damages, we can afford it. ”

"I know, it's just ......"

"Just what?"

"It's just that I'm worried that Penguin isn't that easy to deal with."

"You're talking about Zhang Ning?"

"Yes, he is a genius in the Chinese online game industry, and many of the rules and definitions of online games on the Chinese side are from him. Although online games are not the first time he has operated in China, many people respect Zhang Ning as the father of Chinese online games. ”

"Mohan, you're too worried. Zhang Ning is powerful, but it is impossible for Zhang Ning to cover the sky with one hand. Moreover, although Penguin Games occupies a large market in the Chinese market, it has not reached a monopoly. Our World of Warcraft production is so sophisticated that it has been successful in other non-online gaming regions, let alone in China. Moreover, China not only has a large base of online games, but more importantly, China's game population continues to grow every year, which is simply a huge treasure trove. If we don't make a move, I'm afraid that after the growth of China's online game population reaches saturation, we won't have much opportunity. ”

Poppy almost jumped in anger.

"Mohan, make up your mind. If you are distressed about the $1 billion liquidated damages, then we can not pay at all, and first represent the game to the ninth city. We will fight a lawsuit with them for three or five years, and then we will reconcile with him then, what do you think? ”

"Bobby, you think too well, Zhang Ning is not a fuel-efficient lamp, we don't give liquidated damages, maybe, after we give the Ninth City agency, he will also make a World of Warcraft, even a private server, when the time comes, we will be even more miserable."

"Forehead ......"

Poppy was a little speechless, "Then no matter what, we must take back the agency of Warcraft." Moreover, Mohan, this time the $100 million liquidated damages are not borne by our company alone, and they will also pay $50 million in liquidated damages for the contract with Ninth City. ”

"Bobby, you have a cup of coffee first, I'll think about it later."

Mohan closed his eyes, and although Bobby wanted to say more, he still closed his mouth after thinking about it.

Everything that should be said has been said, and it is useless to say anything more, Mohan is the CEO, and he is the only one who calls the shots of the company.

Mo Han thought about this for 3 hours.

Poppy had already drunk 5 cups of coffee, and when he saw Mohan open his eyes, he asked anxiously, "Have you figured it out?" ”

"Hmm."

Mo Han nodded, "Just according to your wishes, take back the agency of Warcraft." ”

"Mohan, you made the right decision."

……

Penguin Games.

"Tong Lei, Blizzard is estimated to take back our game agency rights in the near future, how is it, is there pressure?"

Zhang Ning came to Penguin Games and had a small meeting with Tong Lei.

"Yes, though, we're ready."

"Oh, yes, tell me, what are you going to do?"

"In the first step, in terms of games, we have launched an intelligent program that can automatically adjust the 3D effect of the game according to the user's computer configuration."

"This is good, with this setting, it will not make some low-profile players unable to play our Kyushu. However, I think that as Blizzard's World of Warcraft, they can't have thought of it. Even if we represent World of Warcraft and know its various functions, I believe that they will also make certain updates after their new proxy to the Ninth City. ”

"In addition to that, we've recently added an interesting feature."

"What function?"

"Double jump."

"You mean, in the Kyushu game, characters can jump twice in a row."

"Yes, although this double jump is not necessarily very attractive, it can also be used as a highlight of our Kyushu game."

"That's good, other 3D games are also in 3D, but they don't have this double jump."

Zhang Ning expressed satisfaction with this, "There is more. ”

"And we're going to introduce a 720-degree full-view flight capability, and at the same time, we're going to add a battlefield in the sky."

"That's not bad either."

Zhang Ning nodded again, "I believe that as soon as this feature comes out, it will also make users very interested, is there anything else?" ”

"And ......"

Tong Lei was a little embarrassed at this time, and said, "We will continue to explore innovations in games, and in addition, we have also arranged a lot of tasks in terms of operations outside of games. We have maintained friendly cooperation with Internet cafes and major game companies, and as long as our Kyushu test is opened, there should be no problem in terms of popularity. ”

"Internet cafes and guilds are traditions that we have always maintained in Penguin...... And there's more. ”

Zhang Ning continued to ask.

"In addition, we will also consider setting up publicity points in major universities."

"And ......?"

Zhang Ning nodded from time to time, looking very satisfied with Tong Lei's plan. It's just that, after nodding, Zhang Ning couldn't wait to ask what other plans there were. In the front, Tong Lei can also talk eloquently, constantly explaining the major functions and advantages of the game, including the future operation step by step. However, in the end, Tong Lei also didn't know how to parry.

Moreover, vaguely, Tong Lei seemed to understand that Zhang Ning was not very satisfied with her several plans.

"Mr. Zhang, for the time being, that's all for our plan, we will continue to add more."

"No need to add it, take it back and redo it."

Zhang Ning said it plainly, but this bland sentence made Tong Lei's whole person stunned.

Since joining Penguin, Tong Lei has been so denied by Zhang Ning for the first time.

"Mr. Zhang, this ......"

"What this and that, I want you to take it back and redo it, naturally I have a reason. You just talked about so many schemes, and some of them certainly look good, such as the double jump, 720-degree flight, opening up the sky battlefield, etc., but this is good, and it is only compared to the original 2D game, or, compared to some other ordinary 3D games. I ask you if you can compete with World of Warcraft. ”

Tong Lei blushed and shook her head, "The quality of World of Warcraft has reached a very high level, which is not comparable to our domestic games in just a few years. ”

"Looks like you know."

Zhang Ning continued to ask again, "In addition to the content of the game, in terms of game operation, I would like to ask again about the Internet cafes and guilds you mentioned, is it possible that the operation of Internet cafes and guilds is only for our Penguin Games to operate, and other game companies, they will not?" You know, it's long past the time when games were pioneered. ”

Zhang Ning's words are relatively plain, but in the blandness, there is a huge lethality.

"Tong Lei, the quality of our games is not as good as Warcraft, and others can keep up with our market operation. I don't understand, if you come up with such a plan, how can we compete with Warcraft. ”

"Mr. Zhang, we ......"

Tong Lei bit her lip and wanted to refute, but she couldn't say a word.

"Why, do you think I'm wrong?"

"No, Mr. Zhang is right."

"In that case, take it back and redo it, and within three days, I'm going to see a brand new plan."

After speaking, Zhang Ning left the office directly, leaving Tong Lei with a blank face.

Until she found out that Zhang Ning had left, Tong Lei screamed and almost ran away.

"Zhang Ning, I'm going to fight with you."

"Is it necessary to be so angry?"

"I have nothing to say, is it very bossy?"

"Little brat, believe it or not, I'll just leave."

Bang bang, both hands kept hammering the table, and Tong Lei kept scolding.

"What's the big deal, I don't believe it, I can't make a plan that satisfies you."

After venting his anger, he picked up the plan on the table, blackened his face, and said to his secretary, "Go, call all the senior executives of the company to a meeting, if you don't come, just get out of me." ”

was scolded by Zhang Ning, and Tong Lei was also very unhappy.

Ten minutes later, when all the senior executives of the company arrived, Tong Lei slammed the plan book on the table, "Look at what plan you wrote, I'm embarrassed to put it here, take it back for me and redo it." Three days, no, two days, two days, I want you to write a brand new proposal, if not, where are you going to go? ”

After speaking, Tong Lei also broke down the door directly, leaving a group of stunned company executives.

"What's the situation, this is?"

"I don't know."

"Mr. Tong won't come like that."

"Be careful, don't be heard by Mr. Tong."

A group of high-level executives whispered, I really couldn't understand.

Tong Lei, who doesn't usually lose her temper, what's wrong with her today, she actually went crazy directly.
