Chapter 778: Two dishes that were delivered to the door on his own initiative

A slap represents 50% of the attendees, not five, which Yang Yun is still very clear.

According to the data, there are more than 30 large and small game manufacturers convened by Microsoft, and only 17 finally agreed to join the Microsoft Game Alliance on the spot, and the remaining 16 said that the matter was important and needed to go back and discuss with others.

According to Yang Yun's thoughts, these people who can't express their stance on the spot are basically not very reliable, they are swingers, and they are grass on the wall.

If Long Teng asks for the opinion of a third-party supplier in this case, those who can't agree don't think about coming in again, just like the invitation song of "Audition" back then, if you don't want to come in the first time, you want your name to appear in the future, it will be much stricter!

Bungie and DICE are just a few of the ones hesitant, but their situation is unique.

According to the information gathered by Yang Zhan, Bungie has always had a good relationship with Dragon, and since their creation in 1991, they have been making zuò games for Apple's MAC computers, and in essence, they are an out-and-out Dragon Warrior.

But after Yang Yun controlled Apple, he did not interfere with Apple's decision-making, Jobs is still designing products according to his own ideals, the only place where Yang Yun has intervened is that he arranged a group of people to learn the operating system, without any instructions to Apple Macintosh, and Bungie has not undergone any changes, and is still making mac computer games, so there has been no intersection with Dragon Games.

Bungie is now invited by Microsoft. It was for a particular reason that Microsoft decided to acquire Bungie. In this way, you can not only dig the foot of the wall from the dragon camp, but also enhance your own strength. Why not?

Bungie, who was in a dilemma on both sides, had no choice but to send people to China, hoping to get Yang Yun's personal promise and come up with results, and they were unwilling to be sandwiched between the two giants.

"Marathon", "Oni", "Myth", "Sword of the Brave", ...... The sales are not bad, there are hundreds of thousands of copies, no wonder Microsoft has taken a fancy to them! ”

Yang Yun looked at the file and said with some dissatisfaction: "Yang Zhan's strategic research department is too inferior now, right?" Why don't such high-quality small companies come into our camp? Develop a Macintosh game, then develop a DC game. Will it be hard? With the fast game design package we provide, whether it's Windows 98 or Windows CE, it shouldn't be difficult! As a result, it's good now, Microsoft wants to win them over, shouldn't it also move to the Windows operating system! ”

Lin Zhihong helped to say good things: "It should be that you said last time not to affect Apple's operations, right?" Maybe Yang Zhan sees Bungie as our own hardcore ally? Don't be too sensitive. ”

Sensitive? Yang Yun didn't feel sensitive at all, he originally planned to come to name a few small game companies to focus on as soon as he got to work during the Spring Festival, and Bungie was one of them, although their games are not very famous now, but their "Halo" series of games can be called the trump card to save the fate of Xbox. It's just that it hasn't been made yet.

Fortunately, they still have the self-knowledge to come back and ask me...... Yang Yun felt a little lucky: "You don't need me to say anything, right?" Whatever they ask for, they will be satisfied, and they will send it to their door, as long as they are willing to sell. I'm willing to buy it. ”

"Okay, but their request seems to be small, and Microsoft wants to buy them. But they would rather like to take this opportunity to fight for a game that transforms into a Windows operating system. They can sell for a better price. I asked the Bungie commissioner, and he told me that he wanted to license Dragon's Bloody Engine. And I'd like to hear from you about the future of gaming. Lin Zhihong said, "It's a pity that you didn't give him a chance to speak, and directly drunk him." ”

"The Blood War engine is given to him, I know what they're going to do, they're going to develop a first-person shooter, and I'm looking forward to their performance! But I don't know the future of game development, and I'm not a reborn person or a prophet! Yang Yun smiled, stopped talking about the question, and began to read DICE's information.

DICE is also a small company that is not very well-known, although they have just been listed in the emerging market in France, but European companies are very low requirements for listing on the stock exchange center, with total assets of 5 million US dollars and net assets of 2 million euros can enter Europe and be listed on the Paris second board market, which is the case with Ubisoft, which is equivalent to the supplementary institution of the main board market, similar to the A-share gem.

Amiga is an American PC brand that uses its own unique operating system, along with Apple's Apple and IBM's Windows PCs, and has sold at least 2 million units.

Such an independent game company is also facing Microsoft's acquisition request, which is why they decided to make an appointment with Yang Yun to ask Yang Yun for help when they happened to know that they were the same as Bungie.

"DICE is not a person in our camp, the distribution company of Amiga Computer has collapsed, they are facing a transition period, and they happen to be favored by Microsoft and want to poach it, which is also reasonable."

"But why didn't we find out about this company?"

"In fact, Yang Zhan has counted all the game companies on Amiga's computer, and has also sent them cooperation invitations, and many companies have already joined our camp. But you've said before that Longteng won't spend a lot of money to buy other people's small companies......"

Yang Yun was speechless, come on, how can you say this kind of thing?

He waved his hand, don't pursue it, it should be his, even if he doesn't want it, people will take the initiative to come to the door to ask for help, for example, DICE is here to ask him for medical advice, he is here today, and he still wants to run?

It's not his, even if he asks for the door, holding a lot of bills, showing all kinds of sincerity, he can't ask for people, such as ID and Valve, he doesn't bird him at all, he just doesn't sell to Longteng, and as soon as Longteng's people leave, he turns around and sells it to EA.

"Okay, it's all a small company, let's not talk about it. DICE: Did they ask for the same thing as Bungie? ”

"Yes, they also need to introduce the Bloody War engine, and it is the highest version, I suggest that you accept them, otherwise once Microsoft proposes in-depth technical support, I think there is no one in the world who understands the Windows operating system better than Microsoft itself, DICE and Bungie will be developed quickly with the help of Microsoft."

"Authorize them, you will operate this matter, and you will not be allowed to leave if you come."

Yang Yun closed DICE's information book and put his mind at ease.

In real history, DICE will launch a first-person shooter game "Battlefield 1942" in less than two years, originally a PC game, and was acquired by EA after a great success, in addition to developing the Battlefield series of PC games, Xbox and Xbox360 are also frequently seen, becoming one of the few masterpieces on Microsoft's Xbox.

The two commissioners were plotted by them, and it is estimated that they will wake up after sleeping for half a day, acquisition or negotiation cooperation, Zhao Yongping is the best at these, Yang Yun handed over the most important things to Lin Zhihong and Zhao Yongping, and he took the information of the Microsoft Game Alliance to check.

Yang Yun was very interested in Microsoft's game alliance charter, and he looked at the three rewards proposed by Microsoft word by word, and quickly calculated them in his heart.

The first financial reward, Longteng will also do it, but his Dragon Teng game battle platform is large enough, and he doesn't need tens of millions of dollars in rewards at every turn, he doesn't have to learn Microsoft's trick, a small reward meaning is enough, or use Microsoft's resource tilt - to give a referral position instead of cash rewards, game dealers may prefer this.

Microsoft's second resource tilt is what Yang Yun finds most funny.

Microsoft game battle platform,Dragon game battle platform,The programs of these client software are actually no different from the general IE browser,After opening the client,The software program is almost exactly the same as the ordinary game portal。

Log in to the account, choose the game you like, or check the information, whether there are any new games on the market recently, players will not enter the game immediately before entering the game, and they will pay more or less attention to the content of the homepage, so the recommendation is a very important resource, which is the limited resource that Microsoft emphasizes.

The home page is so big,The recommended position is also fixed,Plus the beautiful pictures are far more impactful and tempting than the text,So the big seal push with the advertising slogan and game publicity pattern should be the best recommended position,Every time you attract a player to enter the interface of the home page,It will increase many players who are willing to buy the game,Millions of users are active every day on the Dragon game battle platform,This recommendation effect is absolutely good。

With the increasing number of users in the future, it is absolutely not enough to have only one big seal push, there are hundreds of game companies under the platform, the competition is fierce, when excellent works emerge in endlessly, it is necessary to add the picture rotation function to the home page big seal push, so that a number of important games, or important discount promotion information appear in the big seal push area in the form of rotation, to attract the attention of players.
