The Internet is a new thing!

Not only have Chinese never heard of it, but even people abroad have only come into contact with it in recent years.

In fact, as early as the end of the 50s, there was already a technique in this area, but at that time it was still being perfected in the laboratory.

The first to come into contact with the network were Ark and other subsidiaries, such as Apple, Microsoft, Blizzard, Lightgiant, and so on. After nearly ten years of development, the Ark Company has also developed into a group company, renamed "Ark Group", which has a great influence in the computer field.

After entering the 60s, interstate fiber optic networks have been built for several years, showing the rudiments of the Internet era. Various BSS forums, news pages, chat rooms, and game rooms have sprung up on the Internet.

The government and military network is naturally a strict and closed system, and outsiders cannot peep into the content, but the civilian network has developed rapidly, at first it was only connected to the network in major schools, and after AT&T officially joined, even private residences can be connected to the network, and it is also an ADSL broadband network.

Sixty-five years later, Sino-US relations have improved and diplomatic relations have been established rapidly.

The Ark Company's Internet has also come to this land, and in the face of hundreds of millions of potential user groups, it feels very scary to think about it!

Of course, at the beginning, China was still very wary of this new gadget, but when Mao learned about it. This technology, called the "Internet", is the most advanced technological success, capable of connecting all computers. His attitude changed and he allowed the Ark Group to introduce these techniques to China, but how it developed would have to be controlled by the government.

"Other people's good things, if you can get them, take them first, even if you don't use them, you can put them away."

Mao Dada thinks so and does so. He is not afraid of the adverse effects of a new technique, he is more worried: "In the future, the international situation will change, and it will be difficult to get this kind of technology again!" ”

Since the Ark Group is willing to take a piece of the pie with other companies. It's not just AT&T in the U.S. that's on board. Even the United Kingdom, France, Germany and other European countries are also involved, among which the United Kingdom has set up a telecommunications company (BT Company) to cooperate with the Ark Group to roll out the Internet network to the United Kingdom.

The huge profits generated by the Internet have moved many people's eyes, but this kind of high-tech has always been in the hands of the Ark Group. No other country or company can shake its position.

This is somewhat different from the development of the Internet in later generations. In the future, the network is actually a large network that connects the large area networks belonging to various countries. It is not uncommon for a single company to control the Internet.

However, in this era, as the first to develop Internet technology, the Ark Group not only has technology. A large amount of money has also been invested in the establishment of the Internet. It is equivalent to saying that this Internet network is its private property, with complete control, and other countries and companies only have the right to participate in dividends, but have no right to manage.

Because this Internet platform was built by Alex alone!

He didn't allow his interests to suffer, and with no one competing with him for this field in this era, he was naturally at home in this emerging network.

Because of this, Alex uses a real-name system for all users who connect to the network, and no one can log in to the network anonymously. Everyone has a network ID, and this ID is bound together according to the person's real identity, and every move on the network is under the monitoring of the Ark Group.

This is very popular with countries that do not want the Internet to become an unregulated platform for the distribution of information. Only by using the means of real-name system will it be beneficial to the rule of the country, and it will be easy to find out what everyone has done on the Internet.

The cost of doing so is naturally higher than the cost of not monitoring, but although the initial development of the network is rapid, the number of people connected to the network is still less than 10 million, and Alex is willing to pay this management cost. At the same time, you can also get an additional fee by selling your ID.

After the development of tens of millions, or even hundreds of millions of Internet users, the technology at this time has developed greatly, and the cost of monitoring everyone's behavior is nothing.

Among the first people to come into contact with the Internet, Anderson, the president of Blizzard, was the most insightful, and he would spend an hour or two surfing the web every day when he came home from work.

Since Anderson left Microsoft and led a group of software engineers to form Blizzard, his personal time has become less and less. However, thanks to his and his colleagues' efforts, Blizzard has gradually gained a certain scale, and although they have not launched a single product so far, anyone who knows what is going on in their company is confident about the future.

After the movie "Red Alert" was released, it naturally caused a lot of repercussions.

There are reviews and news about the film on the Internet, in newspapers, and on TV stations, and the leak of the news that the game of the same name is being developed has also made everyone look forward to the "Red Alert" game.

Some of these messages were inadvertently said by Anderson himself on the Internet, and some were leaked by others at Blizzard. Since the leak was not a secret, Blizzard did not take any action, but saw that the Internet was of great help to the promotion of the game.

"We should build a game website for Red Alert to introduce this game!"

Anderson had a whim, and the more he thought about it, the more he thought it was a good idea. So I quickly wrote it down, and planned to bring it up when I arrived at the company tomorrow.

At this time, the websites are actually some very simple information publishing platforms, and they are all hosted in the servers of the Ark Group, and the establishment of each website must be subject to approval, and if the content is in violation, the website will be blocked.

The hottest thing in this era is the BBS forum and chat room, and the website is not particularly popular. However, Anderson seems to have heard that the Ark Group has set up a subsidiary to build some portals and search engines to facilitate netizens to quickly find their own resources.

Anderson is now using the company's work, a search engine called "Google", with the help of which surfing the Internet is a very easy thing to do, and you can find any resource at once.

With this in mind, Anderson typed the words "red alert" into the page of the Google search engine and pressed enter. Soon I saw the search results, and it was surprising that there were already several websites related to Red Alert.

How so fast!

Anderson clicked on these web links with some excitement, and soon found out that the content of these websites was actually about the movie of the same name, and the game was also mentioned, but very rarely. There are many people who leave messages hoping to be able to play such a game sooner.

Seeing this situation, Anderson breathed a sigh of relief, and he thought that his colleagues in the company had already started the website before him. Now it seems that he is the fastest to react!

Follow the train of thought just now and continue to think deeply.

The website of "Red Alert" can not only be used to explain the background setting of the game, how to operate, etc., but also to promote the game, such as doing some activation code lottery or something, and also holding some officially organized online battle competitions or something.

Speaking of online battles, under the auspices of Anderson, "Red Alert" has realized the online network of the local area network. However, the online game on the Internet has not yet been made, but he already has an idea, that is, to use the way of connecting with the LAN to make a platform.

As long as the internet speed is fast enough, it is the same as connecting on a local area network, and you can play against players from all over the world. This kind of game,It's really fun to play together on the Internet.,They were satisfied after making a game of man-machine battle.,Wait until they make a networked game.,I really feel the charm of this game.。

Nowadays, if you walk into Blizzard, you can see a whole bunch of staff members playing Red Alert games, not having fun, but working. The game has been developed to the extent that there are no major changes, but the pursuit of detail improvement and bug handling.

The news on the Internet is right, the "Red Alert" game has reached the most advanced stage of development and is waiting to be released.

Anderson was convinced that the game would be able to blow people's heads. Even though he and his colleagues have been facing the game for more than a year, they still don't get bored and are still full of passion.

After more than a year of development, the models on the market have changed a lot, the speed has been improved, and the network is more unimpeded, and Anderson believes that this is the best time to go to market.

In addition to movies, comics, novels and even children's toys have been released earlier than games, and these merchandise products have paved the way for them to create a good market atmosphere.

Anderson believes that Blizzard's games will definitely be successful, and how successful that success will depend on what they do next. Yes, they also intend to build on the expansion with various versions of the game.

After the potential of this version of the game is fully explored, they will consider making the next generation of Red Alert, which will be a signature product of their company in the future. In addition to this game, they are also considering making other types of games, or different story settings of the same genre, but that will not be decided until the first game is released.

Everyone is waiting for Red Alert to hit the market, and Anderson is no exception! (To be continued......)
