Chapter 450: The Fourth Estate

They looked at each other silently, but neither spoke.

Now they are convinced that Infinity will not build this system for a virtual online game.

Based on 20 million euros per supercomputer, 200 is 4 billion euros!

Only a person with a nervous disorder would use such a high price to make an online game!

These people all belong to the high-level of the scientific and technological circles in Europe and the United States, and they have obtained more information from various sources than ordinary people.

As soon as they saw the data submitted by Infinity, they immediately knew it, or they thought they understood.

Needless to say, this is the environmental platform for the virtual training system built by Infinity for the military in China!

Infinity must have made a lot of money to recoup some of its investment before launching this virtual game.

For people who are extremely hungry, even if it is a small fish and shrimp that they usually don't look at, they will devour them all.

That's how it should be.

In this way, Chen Weidong successfully conveyed an impression to the world that Infinity has made certain breakthroughs in hardware, but the bigger breakthroughs are in software and data distribution.

Infinity's strong position in the software industry over the years makes it easy for others to accept this realization.

The European management accepted this statement, and the atmosphere in the conference room was immediately lively.

Not to mention that no one would be crazy enough to use 200 supercomputers to build a virtual game platform, even if they follow suit, then it is necessary to have such a strong software development capability as Infinity to give full play to the computing power of the supercomputer group.

Within ten years, absolutely no one can do it!

A representative of the French computer company, in his excitement, even asked the staff to bring champagne and suggested that everyone should toast to Infinity.

This is a special case, and a special case means a monopoly, and a monopoly means money.

All came to the same conclusion.

In the venue, the senior executives of several European companies, who were still stiff-skinned at first, all smiled, let alone ten years, maybe twenty years later, even with the rapid development of computer technology, it is difficult for people to see that there is a certain company that has built a virtual platform in order to make small profits.

Only the country will not count the blood cost.

In this way, how to make money can be discussed in the long run.

"The environmental platform is a separate whole, and we just borrow this virtual environment."

Chen Weidong held the flute glass in his hand, tasted champagne elegantly, and said lightly, "In addition, I have prepared four sets of cloud computing servers for Europe, three sets for the Americas, five sets for Asia, and one set for Australia, which is expected to accommodate a total of more than 20 million people!" ”

"Gentlemen, our stage has been built, how to attract as many people as possible into this virtual world, is your job!"

20 million people online at the same time will create a myth that will probably not be able to break in the future!

The atmosphere of the venue, with his words, rose from relaxed to warm.

As the world's top high-tech company, it casually comes up with so many supercomputers, which is comparable to other companies? We're just picking up money!

Chen Weidong's words are true and false, he does have plans to form a huge computer group, but it is at the quadrillion level, which is beyond the scope of what can be imagined in this era!

It has achieved a unique global in the true sense!

In the ensuing discussion, everyone tacitly abandoned the monthly fee model, and instead considered how to absorb as many game users as possible, and solve some of the technical difficulties.

There are many challenges, starting with how to get players to buy gold and equipment from the company instead of trading them privately.

Private deals, also known as game studios, gold companies.

They are seriously harming the interests of game operators.

The biggest example is some gamers in Huaxia.

Through the infinite network, they frantically poured into online games in Europe and the United States, online 24 hours a day, swiped gold coins and equipment, and then sold them to those European and American players.

Of course, this is not only the case for Chinese players, but also for gold mining companies in the West.

It's just that there are many people in China, and thousands of Chinese players rush into the servers of European and American games to grab monsters and treasures, which is particularly eye-catching.

European and American online game companies, the gold coins and equipment they sell themselves may not be as much as those sold by these gold mining companies.

Of course, they are not willing to adopt the free-to-play approach as their primary business model.

"Just leave this problem to us to solve, players can't trade privately!" Chen Weidong said unconcernedly, "They can only trade through our platform." ”

"Of course, since the gold mining company exists, the existence is reasonable, which means that gamers have this demand, and we also have to leave a way for others to survive."

"So, my idea is that the existence of gold mining companies is allowed, but for all transactions, the company will charge a certain percentage of the handling fee!"

"You promise you'll be able to restrict players from trading privately?" The senior executive of the European company, with burning eyes, stared at Chen Weidong.

If they can really do this, they can completely ignore a little bit of gold coin income, and open up enough gold coins and equipment drop rate, like the government, charge a fee for each transaction, and they can make a smile.

Some people immediately think that the free exchange of cash and gold coins, (under the control of the game management committee, of course), is akin to opening up a new financial market!

And finance, that's a big money industry!

Money laundering, financing, or other intent can lead to large sums of money being invested in it.

Thousands of funds flow every day, and the handling fee alone will be receiving!

They are keenly aware of one problem, or go back to the beginning, and that is influence!

Be sure to attract more players, even if you give them a little more sweetness at first, if you can really attract 20 million players. O my God! This business is even more exciting than selling computers!

This is not an impossible task.

The first-ever online game with a highly virtual reality environment, this alone is already engaging enough!

There are many people in the management who have entered the game with the help of virtual devices, and then they are hopelessly fond of this game.

These senior executives, who are busy with work every day, come home every day and can't wait to get into the game and indulge in it, they are already successful people who have passed the age of dreams, but they are still obsessed with it.

I believe that the same is true for other people, as long as they are willing to come in, it will be difficult to get out!

More than 20 million users!

This is not a penniless poor, but a group of potential users with considerable purchasing power!

Among them, it is very likely that there are also some wealthy people with considerable status

Take control of the economy in the virtual world and influence reality

A profitable business!

Everyone felt feverish, and several senior executives took off their coats, their faces flushed with excitement.

As successful senior executives, they know how hard it can be, but with a hyper-realistic virtual platform, it is not impossible to reach tens of millions of gamers!

It's a blessing to be at the top of the virtual world management committee!

Chen Weidong's assurances are not exaggerated, Edward is in the game, angry about the game company's setting.
