Chapter 137: This is the first time that a game company has cooperated with a pirated game website
Zhang Yueyang smiled and scolded Liu Neng next, Liu Neng said, "Let's write an advertorial and publish the data of the three games to the public." Oh, find a better game medium! ”
Zhang didn't quite understand, "What, do you think we don't have many enemies now?" Do you have to be a target? Others don't blush when they see this data? ”
"Clumsy people can't see it, and they will say that our game is on the street; Clear-eyed people can see it, let them make a few games, the game industry is now on the eve of change, let them focus on web games, it may not be a good thing for us. ”
Zhang Yueyang shook his head helplessly, "At a young age, who did you learn to be so treacherous?" ”
"No treachery, no business." Liu Neng also smiled, "Haven't several large companies been doing MMO terminal games recently?" Seeing that the page game is so easy to do and the money comes back, what do you think they will choose? ”
"Let's see if there's a pursuit." Zhang Yueyang said, "People and companies with pursuits will definitely choose to continue to take the difficult road." ”、
"If Huaxia's game companies really have a pursuit, Huaxia will not become a dumping ground for foreign games in the past ten years, if they really have a pursuit, they will not copy and copy, they will only engage in some messy charging systems, but they will work this."
"I admit everything you say, but I think some mature gameplay is indispensable, such as the strategy of charging for free props in domestic games." Zhang Yueyang said.
"Yes, yes, I didn't say bad. But when you see a little benefit, you pile almost all your resources on it. If the game is fun, the player will pay for it, instead of stuffing it with garbage, relying on the country's policy to block the good game and feed the player. ”
"I can't say you, you're always reasonable." Zhang Yueyang spread his hands and said that he did his best, "I heard that you have been working on the map editor of "Warcraft 2" recently, what kind of ideas are you thinking?" ”
"Hear the wind from Zheng Laiji?"
Zhang Yueyang nodded, acknowledging it.
"I asked Zheng Laiji to do "Swordsman Love", but this game is too big, and it is estimated that it will be almost two years after it is completed; Even if the stand-alone version is launched first, it will be at least a year later. In a gap of one year, we can't be idle. ”
"But isn't that the equivalent of making a wedding dress for other games? Let's not talk about whether this map editor can really make a very unusual game, even if you make a brand new map, players will only feel that "Warcraft 2" is very awesome, who will remember who the producer of this map is? And in this game environment in Huaxia......"
"Huaxia's game environment, it can be free and definitely don't cost money, Lao Zhang, what do you want to say about this?"
Zhang Yueyang nodded.
"The two are not the same concept at all, and we don't need to reinforce the concept of "I made this map," but we need to have an environment that this map provides...... Anyway, I don't have any pressure right now, you just treat it as my casual play, and there's nothing wrong with being willful. ”
"Whatever you want." Zhang Yueyang rubbed his temples, and he couldn't say anything about his always free and easy behavior. The main reason is that he is stepping on it now, stepping on it every time, and he has done a good job in a year. It seems to be a young company in the industry, but it is not to be underestimated by any practitioner.
…………
Three days later, when the report of the page game had not yet been popularized on a large scale, a news that was neither good news nor bad news was told to Liu Neng, and Banzhu of the 3dn forum got in touch. Liu Neng turned down two meetings and met with this young looking person.
3dn's forum Banzhu is called Xu Chengbin, who has no background, but has a great reputation in the piracy industry, especially in the game piracy industry. Of course, externally, his name has always been geekcow, which translates to "geekcow".
There was no historic moment in this meeting, and the meeting between the two people was simple, coming out in less than two hours, and then several agreements were made with each other:
1. 3dn received a large amount of investment from unknown sources to revise the forum;
2. 3dn claims to protect domestic stand-alone games and no longer pirates domestic stand-alone games;
3. For stand-alone games imported from foreign formal channels, pirated resources will not be released;
4. Theoretically, 3dn positions itself as a game strategy forum, and gradually develops in the direction of game media and in-depth game evaluation;
5. Within three days, the forum completely removed the pirated cracking resources of "Spore", and hung the genuine sales link;
6. A trial version of the game package will be listed on the 3dn forum, and players can download this trial version and experience it for ten hours.
This is just a relatively small episode, Liu Neng did not pursue Xu Chengbin's infringement, on the contrary, he also gave a large investment, owned a certain equity of the forum, but did not interfere in the operation of the specific forum. As for the above agreements, they are also the result of Xu Chengbin's own proposal to talk to Liu Neng, and both guests and hosts are happy.
In fact, as far as the "Spore" game is concerned, this game, because of this episode, has a lot of advertising reputation among pirate players. This reputation is good and bad, after all, many people who don't want to spend money catch up with the 3dn forum only to find that there are no pirated resources, only the so-called 10-hour trial version, and they will definitely scold, saying that the Blue Star Studio store is a big bully.
These fierce remarks, he Liu Neng didn't care. He is not a philanthropist, after all, it is also needed to make a bad meal, and making games is not a charity, making money can be said to be a must, otherwise hundreds of employees will drink the northwest wind?
Of course, in addition, Xu Chengbin will also do some active behavior, such as displaying the advertisement of "Spore" in the banner picture on the homepage of the forum for many days. Pirate players are a very large group, especially 3dn, the largest pirated resource forum in China, the number of users even exceeds 10 million, this kind of advertising, is much better than those game media.
However, the current popular spicy chicken, one is "Warcraft" and the other is "Spore", in the hottest time period now, this kind of advertising can only be said to have an average effect.
Liu Rang wrote an advertorial and went out, found a game monkey to debut, and then some other game media quickly followed up. After ordinary players saw these data, they just laughed and scolded angrily at the back of the article, saying that Blue Star Studio is a step backwards, and this kind of page game is just rotten money.
Now reality has slapped it hard, a studio that has the ability to do a good job in games, a studio that makes phenomenal games like "Spore" and "Three Kingdoms Kill OL", but turns back to make page games, and there are three of them, which is clearly going to cheat money. Now the data of the three games is not good, and the reality will still make Blue Star Studio a good person!
