Chapter 768 - Unified PC Game (Two More Requests)

Zhao Yongping introduced on the stage that the Longteng game battle platform has been continuously updated over the years, and it has gone through a total of four stages.

The first stage is a simple online battle game, based on all kinds of playing cards, Chinese chess, billiards, etc., and the independent game is the online version of the Three Kingdoms Kill, Yu-Gi-Oh, which can be played online all over the world, and the platform makes these ancient games rejuvenate and gather popularity again.

The second phase was completely revised, adding online battles for two real-time strategy games, "Saloman: Red Alert" and "Special Forces", and over the next few years, new nodes were added one after another, "StarCraft", "Warcraft", and "Counter-Strike", which became the favorite battle platform for players.

The third stage is to bundle LongChat software, increase the number of server download nodes around the world, increase forums and discussion areas, increase game strategy information areas, increase the network access function of SS and DC game consoles, and add a complete anti-cheat and anti-piracy mechanism for PC games.

It's just that this stage is a bit messy, there are a lot of minor versions at this stage, and there are some features that have not been deleted yet, and in general, this is in the adjustment period, constantly adding features, testing and tweaking, and finally finalized.

After the completion of the first three phases, the Dragon game battle platform has become the world's largest game center, with multiple server centers in six countries around the world, running 524 sets of servers, and providing round-the-clock battle services for 35.2 million registered users around the world.

Because of WCG. CPL and other hugely influential competitive leagues and competitions, coupled with the exclusivity of popular competitive games such as Dragon, "StarCraft", "Counter-Strike", and "Warcraft 3". There are basically no competitors in the Dragon game battle platform, and other game battle platforms have no way to survive at all.

European and American companies, led by EA and Microsoft, have tried to sue Longteng for monopolistic behavior on the grounds of antitrust law. But they haven't taken action yet, because their own Microsoft platform doesn't dare to open to Longteng Games, otherwise it will instantly become a sub-platform covered by Longteng Games, which will not help their own games, and Microsoft's own games don't want to be handed over to Longteng to operate, because there is no way to make a profit at all, and they can't trust Yang Yun at all.

Therefore, the anti-monopoly law is a means of not attacking Longteng Entertainment and Game Company, and Longteng's legal department is not a vegetarian. Yang Yun has a large number of lawyers, just waiting for someone to come to the door to find faults, and he will unceremoniously let the lawyers out to fight.

Since foreign counterparts are helpless, what about domestic counterparts?

There is an instant messaging software company called Penguin in Shenzhen, China, they started by imitating ICQ and LongChat software, which is a small company, and in the past two years, they have received a venture capital, and they are optimistic about the combination of instant messaging software and games, so they tried to make a penguin game battle platform.

Because Yang Yun publicly stated that he would not embarrass the Chinese compatriots. Therefore, Penguin Company enthusiastically applied to Longteng Entertainment Game Company, hoping to obtain the authorization of a number of competitive games under Longteng.

This is a big deal, not only the reporters present today know it, but also because the penguin company was the official channel at the time. It was reported by the outside media from the moment it was proposed, and for a while, peers in the global game industry were paying attention to this matter and wanted to see what Longteng's attitude was.

At that time, it was the general manager of the penguin company received by Zhao Yongping. looked at this young man's high-spirited face, but there was a hint of smug cunning in his eyes that he had taken advantage of the loopholes and was powerless. Zhao Yongping was not angry at all, nor was he embarrassed. Instead, he sat down and asked his secretary to bring him tea.

Next, Zhao Yongping only said one sentence: "These competitive games can be licensed, but in order to ensure the rights and interests of our genuine software under Longteng Entertainment Game Company, we must check the source code of the Penguin Game Battle Platform, and the Penguin Game Battle Platform must use the monitoring and anti-piracy program provided by us." ”

Twist Vine was dumbfounded at that time, he couldn't drink a sip of the tea he was holding, a wave of anger came from the soles of his feet, and the expression on his face was particularly distorted, so he almost stood up and scolded on the spot.

What is this going to do? This is a non-dividing request, it is completely unreasonable, and it is impossible to meet the demand! The Penguin Games battle platform is a product of their Penguin Company, how can it be possible to hand over the source code?

And the game battle platform of Longteng and Penguin is similar, there is not much difference in technology, the Penguin game battle platform is originally an imitation of the plagiarized Dragon Teng game battle platform, these source codes have no meaning to Longteng, but Longteng just put forward this request, whether there is a deeper meaning in it is unknown.

In the initial fire of anger, Twist Vine calmed down and found himself in a difficult situation.

Give it, once the source code of the platform is known by outsiders, then the security will be unguaranteed, even if Long Teng swears that the curse will not reveal the source code, but the source code is like a secret, "I sue you a secret, you must not sue others", once the secret comes out of the mouth of the first person, it is guaranteed that it will not take long to spread all over the world, so how does the penguin game platform connect to the server, what are the server ports, where is the server IP address, what encryption technology do they use, What are their optimal algorithms, where are the bugs on their platform, how to use these bugs to bypass the supervision of the platform to brush game currency, brush money, and then destroy, and then can they play happily on the Penguin game battle platform?

Don't give it.,It's not reasonable.,Longteng planted a nail in order to ensure the interests of his genuine game.,It's necessary to know whether the genuine game verification function is effective.,How many pirated versions have been intercepted by the Penguin platform.,How many genuine versions have been passed.,Whether there are omissions.,Whether there is a guard and self-theft,These dragons must know in person.,Otherwise, you won't be at ease.,If it's for Longteng to publish the source code of the anti-piracy program,Is this possible?

If he refuses to open source, then he is against the genuine industry, it is to flout the law, and it is to openly confront the entire game industry.

If he doesn't cooperate, without these games of Longteng, he will still be a Mao game battle platform, and he can only make a chess and card game battle platform.

But as far as the eye can see, now China has Longteng in the chess and card center, in addition to the Chinese game online center, Lianzhong game battle platform, these state-owned enterprise bigwigs have also rushed to enter the online casual game industry, the market has long been clean.

The ultimate fate of Twist Vine and Penguin Company was to abandon the Penguin game battle platform, and then this qiē was revealed by the media, and for a while, the long-awaited global game industry was extremely quiet, and there was no debate.

People found that this turned out to be an unsolvable desperate situation, unless you set up your own platform and make your own game, don't want to bypass the dragon level.

Someone proposed third-party supervision, but it was quickly opposed, because it was impossible, and no one would let others help look at their money bags instead of holding on to them firmly, and they knew with their butts that the law would not support this construction.

The reporters all remember this incident, and although half a year has passed, everyone still remembers it vividly.

Today, when Zhao Yongping reviewed the previous version updates of the Dragon Teng game battle platform, everyone recalled again, and they thought of how amiable Zhao Yongping was with a smile, a kind and harmless expression, and also thought of the dejected and powerless appearance of the twist vine.

"In the fourth version, which is at this stage, we will open up the Dragon game battle platform to our peers all over the world, whether it is EA company, Ubisoft game software, or smaller domestic PC game companies, they can release their new games on the Dragon game battle platform, and allow these games to use Dragon resources for global connection."

Zhao Yongping's words were like a 10,000-ton bomb, which immediately made the venue explode.

"Did I hear me right? Is Longteng open source? ”

"Nope! It's not open source! It reminds me of MD ten years ago! ”

"That's right, it's the MD and SS models, Longteng has mastered the largest game platform, and controls all game developers, I guess the next step must be an improved version of the Longteng game quality management system, strictly control the number of game providers and game content, and then use the form of sharing to tie up the world's PC game manufacturers, so that all companies work for Longteng!"

"This is a trick for Dragon to dominate PC games after video games!"

"Tsk, big money, big news! Longteng is challenging the world! ”

The reporters talked a lot in the audience, they only saw the appearance, but they couldn't see the real core, this move of Longteng is not invincible, and it is also an impossible task to completely control the game manufacturers all over the world.

It's like Nintendo's FC and Sega's MD fought to the death, how many other companies were involved in the middle, and how many consortia were involved, until now Nintendo and Sony have not completely died out, Longteng still has not been able to achieve a global monopoly on TV game consoles, and Microsoft has carried the XBox banner to snipe.

Where there are interests, there will be capital chasing, the weakness of the dragon game battle platform is in the platform and the game, as long as the dragon game can run on other game platforms, and can ensure the interests of the dragon, then the anti-monopoly law will be a powerful legal weapon will forcibly cut the market, and it is absolutely impossible to let the dragon family dominate.

Many reporters and game peers are thinking, how should they deal with Longteng's move to sweep thousands of troops? Will the gaming world change dramatically? Who is the hero in troubled times?
