Chapter 213: If I hadn't known the result a long time ago, I wouldn't have dared to fool around like this

"I'm not the same kind of people as those people." Liu Neng said, "I still have some ideals and ambitions. ”

"In my opinion, your ideals and ambitions are not just a little bit." Abel said complimentally, "I heard that in your domestic studio, basically the most primitive design of most of the games is handled by you?" ”

Liu Neng looked Abel up and down, and suddenly smiled, "With our relationship, I can also consider personally designing a game for you and letting you develop it here." ”

Abel laughed, "Not at the moment, we already have our own plans, the preliminary preparations are almost complete, we are recruiting now, and soon, maybe you will be able to see the early version of our game in three months." ”

"That's pretty good." Liu Neng was noncommittal, although he didn't know what the game was, but Abel has always been a person with more ideas, and the game that should be made is not bad.

After all, "Warcraft 2" is also from his handwriting, how can someone who can make such an epoch-making game not make other fun games?

"However, I think your game cok is very impressive to me, the design idea and concept of this game are completely different from other games. In my opinion, it seems closer to some of the web game war strategy games, but it's very different from the war strategy games that I play regularly. ”

"That's right, this game was designed to be played on mobile phones from the beginning, so you think the design idea is very different. But we also made a web version to make it more convenient for players to play anytime, anywhere. ”

Liu Neng has come to the United States several times, in fact, he is a little surprised, "I see that the penetration rate of smartphones in the United States is actually not so high? I thought it had a penetration rate of at least 50%. But now, it seems to be only close to 10 percent? ”

"Probably not yet." Abel said, "People here don't have that much demand for smartphones. IBAL is an interesting phone, but that's about it. People are used to using their mobile phones to send text messages and make phone calls, but I still feel a little uncomfortable using mobile phones to play games. Just typing on it, I already feel a headache, and after a long time of swiping back and forth on such a small screen, I feel like my eyes are about to go blind. ”

"Hahaha! You're right, maybe my decision was wrong. Liu Nengxiao, if it weren't for some actual situations in his previous life to confirm his views, if it were someone else, he really wouldn't think that smartphones would become the final form of mobile terminals in the future for a long time.

"I heard that recently Googo is ready to promote their operating system, and has signed cooperation agreements with several mobile phone manufacturers."

Liu Neng sighed, this is also his headache, because in many things, he has not been able to achieve an absolute time advantage, in fact, he has lost the first-mover advantage.

It is indeed difficult for some domestic things to go abroad.

"I've heard that you've invested a considerable amount of money in China to launch your esports event in China? That's enough for more than $3 million! That's a lot of money. Abel sighed, "You can see that you have made a lot of money." ”

"I can't say it's a small amount of money, but for me, it's not the ultimate pursuit. I'm curious, how is the Dota you asked to represent, the event in the United States? ”

Abel said helplessly, "It's probably equivalent to a community event, we lack funds." Although many people play the game, everyone still recognizes WCG, and WCG is mainly a few games of the Storm Company. Some time ago, although I signed some agreements with them, it was obviously quite unpleasant. They brought Heroes of the Storm to WCG, and our dota, unfortunately, couldn't get in. ”

"It's right not to be able to enter, and our original idea was not to start anew and not use them for events? Dota is fundamentally different from those RTS games, so there's no need to put them together. Liu Neng swore that "If it weren't for the fact that our current funds are not very abundant, I even want to invest a sum of money in Riot so that your e-sports events can be hotly launched." ”

"These things are not the most important thing for the time being, it will be IBAL soon, are you ready?"

Liu Neng was stunned for a moment, "What are you going to prepare?" They invited me, and I just had to put forward the conditions! ”

Abhaha laughed, "You're right. ”

…………

Curry is the docking person this time, and he is a bearded hybrid, whiter than the blacks, but much darker than the whites. It looks a little raunchy, but it's not annoying. After greeting the two of them, he smiled at Liu Neng and said, "I have always been interested in Mr. NengLiu, but unfortunately I have never been able to meet him. ”

Liu Neng is still looking at this place, it is rumored that the headquarters of IBAL company is a very cowhide place, the design is very avant-garde buildings, it is better to see than to see, it is indeed very modern and avant-garde, Liu Neng is still thinking in his heart, and when the company continues to develop in the future, when the IDEA pumping station can no longer accommodate employees, is he also engaged in such a cowhide building complex, becoming a holy place in the game world.

Just imagining, if there really is such a day, it is very cool.

In the final analysis, he is still a more faceless person, and such a headquarters is obviously very long-faced.

"I am also very interested in your company, and it is an eye-opener to come to your company's headquarters today!"

After the business blows each other, under the leadership of Curry, I visited several buildings in the headquarters a little, and then entered a very cold conference room, with a pure white wall, Curry snapped his fingers and shouted "hiMolly", woke up the intelligent assistant, turned on the background wall and projector.

"I invited Mr. Liu this time, in addition to the most basic, I want to recommend the game "Clash of Kings" to our users at the IBAL press conference held in two months, and more importantly, I want to invite Liu Neng to come to the scene in person and participate in our new product launch session as a guest. Here is the specific process of the press conference, Mr. Liu can take a general look. ”

It took nearly five minutes to browse through Curry's explanation, and Liu Neng smiled, "The problem is not very big." Although the current COK is just a demo, the game is not finished yet. But two months is enough time for us to complete the rest. ”

"That would be great. In fact, we wanted to find the right product all over the world, especially an epoch-making game, but we couldn't find the right one. Later, I saw your company's "Snake Wars", although this game is very small, but it is particularly suitable for operation on mobile phones......"
