Zhang Weiying helped ease the atmosphere: "This mother's mood is understandable. This mother didn't bring any guns today, it's good that she didn't bring them, it's safer. ”
Wei Dongsheng thanked Zhang Weiying for his rescue and faced the female audience: "If I'm not mistaken, your child is playing legend." ”
Viewer: "Yes. ”
Wei Dongsheng: "Legend is a grand product. ”
Using grand products to make things difficult in the Spring and Autumn Period, Wei Dongsheng was wronged by the black pot. The scene was full of laughter, laughing at the random lighting of the female audience, and laughing at the spring and autumn to carry the black pot for Shanda. In the midst of laughter, the female audience member was also a little embarrassed and quite restless.
Wei Dongsheng didn't laugh.
Wei Dongsheng pointed out the female audience's mistake in a flat tone: "When I heard you say three years ago, I knew that what your child was playing at that time was definitely not the work of Spring and Autumn, because the history of Spring and Autumn is very short. The first work of the Spring and Autumn Period is "Spring and Autumn of the Ten Kingdoms", and the Spring and Autumn Period is also named after it. In August 2002, I began to conceive the framework of "Spring and Autumn of the Ten Kingdoms"; On December 13, 2002, I went to Yanjing to register for Spring and Autumn Network; On June 16, 2003, "Spring and Autumn of the Ten Kingdoms" was officially open beta. Full of calculations, "Spring and Autumn of the Ten Kingdoms" has only been in operation for two years and three months. ”
"You ask me if I play online games, and I can answer you unequivocally, play. I play online games, I like online games, and I also enjoy online games, I am a player of "Legend of Blood", I am a player of "Fantasy Journey to the West", yes, Fantasy Journey to the West is Ding Lei's dream Journey to the West. ”
Ding Lei smiled and said: "This is an advertisement for me." ”
Wei Dongsheng turned to Ding Lei and said with a smile: "I went to play "Fantasy Journey to the West" to spy on the enemy. ”
After joking with Ding Lei, Wei Dongsheng continued to face the female audience: "I am a player of "Spring and Autumn of the Ten Kingdoms", I am a player of "The Road to Survival", and I am also a player of "World of Warcraft". I thought the three online games operated by the Spring and Autumn Network were interesting, so I went to develop them and act as agents. However, liking is one thing, indulging is another. I like online games, but I never get addicted to them, and I don't recommend them to be addicted to them. ”
"My positioning for online games is that of an entertainment service industry. It's entertaining, so I want players to take a break from the game world after a day of learning and working; It is also a service, a spiritual needs type of service, and the Spring and Autumn Network conscientiously meets the spiritual needs of players, and then charges a certain service fee. ”
"As we all know, "Spring and Autumn of the Ten Kingdoms" started the trend of free, and it was also scolded by everyone as a black circle of money, and it cost two or three million yuan to hype a player. Public opinion thinks that 3 million yuan is exaggerated, but I think it is very reasonable. Let's give up prejudice and calculate an account, the upper limit of the server of "Spring and Autumn of the Ten Kingdoms" is 20,000 people, and through the form of mergers, real users are usually controlled at more than 10,000 people, and every player who is willing to burn two or three million yuan can indirectly affect at least 2,000 players. ”
"Back in reality, if you want 2,000 people to call you a boss, how much does it cost? If you run a company and each employee earns 2,000 yuan a month, 2,000 people is 4 million yuan. In the real world, it takes 4 million yuan a month to experience leading 2,000 people, while in the game world, investing 2 or 3 million yuan can give you two years or more to learn the organizational experience of 2,000 people. If one player can calmly lead two thousand different players, there is no need to question their abilities, and it is not necessary to say that it is useless. At least, such players, the Spring and Autumn Network has always opened the door to them, and they can come to the Spring and Autumn Network to report at any time. ”
"Free experience is free, and high consumption has high consumption experience, which is originally the characteristic of the service industry. Just like the most commonplace haircut, go to a beauty salon training school, and novice students will cut your hair for free; To go to a roadside shop, it costs three or five yuan; If you go to a shop with a bit of grade to get your hair done, it costs hundreds or thousands of dollars; It's one thing to hire a master of the industry to work for you privately. Spring and Autumn Network does not require every player to need a dedicated service, and the so-called freemium is just a sale of different services at a clear price. ”
"Our game is very fair, as fair as the real world."
"Spring and Autumn Network positions online games as a service industry, and the free public beta is because we are confident in the quality of the game. Spring and Autumn Network never needs to pull players into the game world, playing six hours and twelve hours a day. To put it mildly, if a player is addicted to our games every day, where will he have time to make money and spend? Although "Spring and Autumn of Ten Kingdoms" has attracted a lot of criticism, I think it has positive energy, it encourages players to work hard in the real world, and then pay one or one-tenth of their monthly salary to enjoy the high-quality service provided by Spring and Autumn Network. ”
"Players of "Spring and Autumn of the Ten Kingdoms" do not have the ability to indulge in "Spring and Autumn of the Ten Kingdoms" without hard work. Just like your child, he will definitely not be able to play "Spring and Autumn of the Ten Kingdoms" because he has no money. If he wants to play "Spring and Autumn of the Ten Kingdoms", the correct route is to study hard, get a good job and achieve economic freedom, and then he will be able to experience the high-quality services provided by "Spring and Autumn of the Ten Kingdoms". ”
Of course, I don't have any confidence in saying this. Because the "World of Warcraft" operated by the Spring and Autumn Network Agency is a time-paid online game, you can enjoy the colorful fantasy world for 5 cents per hour. Players are obsessed with 12 hours a day, and it only costs 180 yuan per month, and the monthly salary of one month is enough for a player to play for a year, which must easily attract a large number of in-depth players. At this point, I can only guarantee that I will try to control the level of obsession of players through technology, reminding them that online games are just online games, and real life comes first. ”
"Just now, I understood that I was carrying the black pot for Shanda, but I didn't breathe a sigh of relief in my heart. Because I know that in another two or three years, someone will definitely accuse me with World of Warcraft. I can only guarantee that Spring and Autumn Network never pursues players to overindulge in a certain game. ”
Wei Dongsheng rarely appeared at this type of gathering at the West Lake Sword Debate, and he had no previous experience in facing criticism from the audience in public. Wei Dongsheng knew that the criticism of online games was a difficult problem that could not be bypassed, and since he had determined the strategic route of relying on online games to make money, he was mentally prepared to face these criticisms with sufficient psychological preparation. No matter what he thinks in his heart, no matter what the real concept of the Spring and Autumn Network is, Wei Dongsheng always has to set up a high-sounding banner, strive to whitewash the Spring and Autumn Network, and conform to the voice of the people to express his opposition to players indulging in online games.
The main purpose of this year's West Lake Sword Debate is not to criticize online games after all.
Seeing that Wei Dongsheng was no longer verbose at the end, Zhang Weiying ended the controversy in time: "Due to time constraints, there will be more exciting ones below." Let's take a break and play a little game. In addition to yourself, the other five people here, whose company are you most optimistic about? Can't say anything about your own, except for yourself? Jack Ma said first. ”
Ma Yun: "I am most optimistic about Ding Lei. ”
Zhang Weiying: "What about Ding Lei?" ”
Ding Lei: "I admire the new business model created by Alibaba. However, I am most optimistic about Ma Huateng. ”
Zhang Weiying turned to Ma Huateng: "What about you?" ”
Ma Huateng: "I think Sina's potential has not been fully tapped, which is an advantage. I'm most bullish on Sina. ”
Zhang Weiying turned to Wang Yan: "Wang Yan, which one are you most optimistic about?" ”
Wang Yan: "I am most optimistic about Tencent's potential, I think it still has a lot of potential to be tapped, and I also hope that Ma Huateng can focus on it and work harder." ”
Ma Yun to Ding Lei, Ding Lei to Ma Huateng, Ma Huateng to Wang Yan, this is a continuous line. Unexpectedly, when Wang Yan came here, he suddenly jumped back to Ma Huateng, so that this line could not continue to extend. Zhang Chaoyang of Sohu and Wei Dongsheng of the Spring and Autumn Period suddenly fell into a more embarrassing situation.
Zhang Chaoyang is thick-skinned, since others are not optimistic about his Sohu, he directly took the initiative to answer: "Envy, I envy Ding Lei for making money every day." Ding Lei has a strong sense of the market, from mobile and telecom value-added to online games, he turned around quickly. ”
Only Wei Dongsheng remained.
Since Wei Dongsheng was not as good at answering as Zhang Chaoyang, Zhang Weiying was able to continue his hosting: "To tell you from the heart, your choice is very surprising to me, I understand if you don't choose Zhang Chaoyang, after all, among the three major portals, Sohu has the lowest market value." However, among the six companies here, Spring and Autumn Network is the highest, but no one is optimistic. Wei Dongsheng, I remember that the revenue of Spring and Autumn Network in the second quarter was very high? ”
Wei Dongsheng opened his mouth and said: "The revenue of the three networks of "Spring and Autumn of the Ten Kingdoms", "The Road to Survival" and "World of Warcraft" is 937 million yuan, and the revenue of other businesses is 956 million yuan in the second quarter of 2005. ”
Zhang Weiying: "As far as I know, this kind of income is very high. Ding Lei, how much revenue did NetEase earn in the second quarter? ”
Ding Lei replied: "The revenue of online games is 310 million yuan, and the total quarterly revenue is 380 million yuan, which is less than half of the Spring and Autumn Period. ”
Zhang Weiying asked Wang Yan again: "What about Sina?" ”
Wang Yan: "I keep in mind the performance of Sina, NetEase, and Sohu. In US dollars, NetEase's second-quarter revenue was the highest, with $46.24 million; Sina followed with $46.1 million; Sohu is slightly lower, at $25.9 million. ”
Zhang Weiying asked Ma Huateng again: "Tencent's revenue is not high, right?" ”
Ma Huateng: "Tencent's total revenue in the second quarter was about 300 million yuan, which was lower than NetEase and Sina. ”
Zhang Weiying: "I won't ask Ma Yun." Sina, NetEase, Sohu, Tencent, the highest quarterly revenue of 380 million yuan, less than half of the Spring and Autumn Network, why are you all surprisingly not optimistic about the Spring and Autumn Period? Ma Huateng, tell me your reasons. ”
Ma Huateng: "I think that online games make money, but they are not sustainable, and they will usher in a bottleneck in three or five years. I think that Wei Dongsheng clearly saw that online games have no sustainable development potential, so he will burn money to invest in Tencent, invest in Spring and Autumn Search, and invest in industry to build intelligent factories. I am optimistic about Wei Dongsheng, but I am not optimistic about his Spring and Autumn Period, especially the Spring and Autumn Network. ”
