Rumble!

As soon as the announcement of the flood was issued, the entire Internet was in a sensation.

First.

Tens of millions of sales!

Although I had long expected that the debut performance of "Minecraft" on all platforms would be exaggerated, I didn't expect it to be exaggerated to such an extent.

directly broke the original record of "Red Dead Redemption" of 10 million in three days, and became another breakthrough under the banner of Honghuang!

The joint sniping of the two major factories against them is like a joke, and it is self-defeating.

Those who thought that the flood would fall silent only woke up at this time.

What kind of silence is the wilderness?

It's just holding back the big move!

"Laughing to death, I heard that Ren Tiandi hid all the games on his platform, but now people simply don't use their platform."

"If you don't go to their platform, you can still get such an exaggerated first-day result, and this face is crackling."

"The name of Big Brother on the host side is a bit empty."

"It's worthy of being a brother, don't want a game of tens of millions of dollars, you don't want it, you have money and willfulness. (Funny)"

"There are also those shameless plagiarized mobile games, saying that the flood is not strong enough, and it has to be folded on the mobile phone, and now I look at it, and I can't even reach a fraction of people's sales."

Compared to the shock of the manufacturers.

Players are more likely to eat melons and watch the show, gloating.

Those who supported the game of the flood wilderness even erupted in a large number of cheers, and there was a feeling of joy that gave those big factories a lot of melon seeds.

I was crazy to ride the face by those players who plagiarized the game before, but as soon as the situation turned, they all had the confidence to scold back.

The hilarious scene.

Adding fuel to the fire.

It has become a topic that countless people who eat melons.

……

And at this time

Inside the Flood Wilderness Studio.

After this period of movement, except for the current quarter, various payments have been basically settled and are being counted.

"In the four quarters of last year, except for the first quarter, the revenue of each quarter was basically more than 18 billion, and the net income was about 10 billion."

"Among them, DNF and Warcraft occupy the majority, providing nearly 5 billion revenue every quarter, which is our current stable source of funds."

"Excluding the overseas market investment in the second and third quarters, the establishment of the R&D team, and the procurement of cutting-edge equipment, there is still 24 billion working capital left."

At the conference table, Lao Song held a document and roughly summarized the recent payment situation, with a happy face on his face.

"Is it already 18 billion?"

Chen Lin took a deep breath.

18 billion per quarter, or 72 billion a year.

Although it can't be compared with Penguin and Rentiandi, there is not much gap between it and those game manufacturers with hundreds of billions of revenue.

For a long time, he has been adhering to the principle of accumulating development funds for stand-alone games and providing continuous income for online games, and has built Honghuang into what it is today step by step.

With the support of more than a dozen games, large and small, they finally have the power to truly match the capital.

"Our advantage now is that we are not listed, and we don't need to announce our financial reports every quarter, so that they don't know our fiction and reality, and think that we will not be able to keep up with the funds if we make so many big moves, so this financial report should be kept and not leaked out."

After thinking about it, Chen Lin advised.

"Don't worry, I still know this kind of thing, pretend to be a pig and eat a tiger." Lao Song handed over a clear look.

The outside world thinks that they will not have too much money to explore overseas markets and maintain such intensive game development and various large-scale activities.

But I don't know.

Their ability to attract money in these games is not comparable to that of ordinary games.

Even if only a small amount of krypton gold is invested.

With a huge player base, you can make a lot of money.

This is also one of the reasons why they can always maintain the image of "conscientious manufacturers".

The only thing that made him unable to figure it out was "Minecraft", a game that took him just over three months to make when he was on a business trip abroad.

The sales volume is so exaggerated.

It's even more terrifying than the big dart that their Dawn team made for more than half a year.

"So, you already knew that this game had the potential to become a hit?" Lao Song couldn't help but ask.

"Pretty much." Chen Lin smiled mysteriously, "It's just a little sure." ”

Joke.

In the previous life, the total sales of this game reached more than 100 million.

And it only took 7 years.

Now that the influence of the flood is not low, coupled with the momentum some time ago, he has the confidence to shorten this time to half!

This is also the reason why he did not panic in the face of sniping from Dachang.

"To be honest, I really didn't expect this kind of game to be so outrageous, and in this way, we can be regarded as completely breaking with Ren Tiandi."

As he spoke, Lao Song sighed.

If Ren Tiandi is only a second- or third-rate console platform, they can ignore it.

Now that the two are not in harmony, it is equivalent to losing 50% of the host market, and the impact is still very large.

"Let's make a fuss, those guys, think that we will be like other manufacturers, show weakness to them, so as to make a profit from it, it's really naïve, when we don't have the temper to bully casually?"

"Moreover, a new era is coming soon."

"A new era?"

Old Song was stunned, a little unclear.

But he didn't ask much.

After discussing some operational issues, he got up and left to start the full lease of the office building.

Because now there are more and more employees in Honghuang, nearly 1,000 people.

Coupled with the recently purchased equipment, he needed more privacy, so he planned to take the entire building down.

It just so happens that many companies upstairs and downstairs have recently expired their leases and do not plan to renew their leases, so they can take over completely.

with their financial resources.

How can you not have your own office building?

……

Time flies.

A month has passed in the blink of an eye.

Because of the kick in the wilderness, the entire game industry has become a mess.

Countless manufacturers are jealous of the horror results of "Minecraft" and have launched their own pixel games, setting off a pixel trend.

For this.

Chen Lin also had people launch an online construction competition that lasted for a month.

Each player can construct any building in their own world, which will then be displayed publicly and scored by other players.

The winner will receive official titles such as Architectural Star and Master Builder, which can be worn in-game.

As soon as this news came out, players were excited.

Rush into the game and start building your own buildings in a frenzy.

The total sales of "Minecraft" are also soaring, and after a wave of explosions, it directly broke through the 50 million mark, surpassing Dead Redemption to become the highest-selling game under Honghuang.

Before and after, it only took half a year.

directly caused an uproar on the whole network.

But.

Other big factories didn't look at it either.

The major projects that have been held back for several years have been launched one after another.

Penguin's greasy sister, Juqing's new engine martial arts mobile game, and the gorgeous immortal cultivation masterpiece Demon Punishment 3......

A series of IP masterpieces have been released frequently, which has earned the attention of players and made "Minecraft" popular.

It also made the first half of the year a rare period of high explosion of the game.

It has become a season of carnival for players.

However.

It was at this time that Chen Lin suddenly received an unexpected message.

"Mr. Chen, Suo Ni has temporarily removed most of our games from the shelves for reasons that do not meet the norms!"

The manager of the channel department came to Chen Lin and the three of them, who were discussing things, and said anxiously.

"What do you say? All taken off the shelves? ”

Old Song and Lao Li stood up and was shocked by this sudden news.

"Yes, I just personally contacted the person in charge over there, saying that it was a request from above, and we need to go back and make rectifications......"

"Fart!"

Before he finished speaking, the hot-tempered Lao Li had already scolded angrily: "Saying something that doesn't conform to the norm is clearly aimed at us!" ”

Lao Song also had a solemn face: "It seems that they have colluded with Ren Tiandi to engage us together, wanting to drive us out of the host market, or pressure us to back down." ”

If it is said.

Before, it was just a Ren Tiandi, and they could barely bear it.

The addition of Soni is undoubtedly worse than the worse, almost cutting off their host market.

"I don't know what benefits Ren Tiandi gave Suo Ni, but he can make Suo Ni, who has always been neutral, change his attitude, they want us to choose between Ju Hard and the two families."

said that the Suo Ren family did not look down on the huge potential of "Minecraft", Chen Lin did not believe it.

The move of the two companies is nothing more than forcing them to stand in line.

Choose the two-percent market of the giant hard, or choose the seventy-percent market of the two of them.

Plainly.

They are just victims of the rivalry between the three families.

"This is capital." Lao Song said with emotion, "The loss of one of our manufacturers is not important to them, but we will suffer a lot of losses." ”

"Are you going to let them be so arrogant?" Lao Li glared angrily.

"So you're going to give up on the console market?" Old Song asked rhetorically, choking him back again.

Afterwards, the three of them looked at Chen Lin in unison, wanting to see how he decided.

Feeling their gaze, Chen Lin raised his head: "Go, remove all the games from the two platforms, issue an announcement, and the game will permanently withdraw from the two platforms!" ”

His voice was very calm and unwavering.

But in the ears of the three of them, it was like a thunderclap, and even the grumpy Lao Li instantly opened his mouth wide.

Chen ...... Mr. Chen, do we really want to do this? The channel manager swallowed.

Even if the game is taken off the shelves, an announcement will be made.

This is undoubtedly a self-defeating way out, openly declaring war with the Soren family.

Business is nothing more than profit, and there is always room for maneuver to leave some way back.

"I just said it casually, Mr. Chen, don't take it seriously." Lao Li was a little panicked, thinking it was because of what he said.

But that's all angry talk!

Only Lao Song thought of something and asked, "Do you have any plans?" ”

"Yes, but you don't need it for the time being, you just do what I say, it's a big deal that you will have a huge hard platform in the future, and it's not that you don't have to make money."

Chen Lin didn't explain much.

But anyone can see that he is resolute.

The three of them wanted to persuade them, but after hesitating for a moment, they finally turned around and left to prepare for this matter.

Then it didn't take long for an announcement to be made.

Due to some force majeure reasons, Honghuang will permanently withdraw from the NS and PS platforms and remove all games.

As soon as this announcement came out, the whole network was in an uproar.

The whole gaming industry shook.

"! I'm not dazzled, am I? ”

"Hong Huang wants to withdraw from the console platform of Suoni and Rentiandi??"

"And forever! Not temporarily! ”

"Big news, absolutely big news!"

“WDNM！ What the hell is going on? ”

"Can anyone explain this to me?"

"Is it because things broke down last time?"

"Public announcements, so ruthless!"

"Isn't Honghuang going to want the host market?"

"Then I won't be able to play their games on either platform here in the future?"

"I just went to take a look, and it's really all off the shelves, and I can't find it!"

"Shhhh

This sudden news is tantamount to a bombshell, which directly exploded the entire game industry.

Even people in other industries are paying attention to this matter.

Because they have been in the industry for so long, it is the first time they have seen the relationship between platform providers and suppliers reach such a point, and they even do not hesitate to issue an announcement to terminate the cooperation.

An entry called #Honghuang quits the console platform# also quickly rushed to the hot search, sparking extensive discussions and inquiring about the inside story of the matter.

Many of them are well-informed and well-informed.

They all felt that Hong Huang was too impulsive this time, and he made this decision for the sake of a momentary anger.

Nowadays, PCs, consoles, and mobile phones are divided into three parts.

Withdrawing from the host market is undoubtedly a self-defeating arm.

Do you really think that this will have an impact on the Soren family?

Even those manufacturers who are good friends with Honghuang have called to inquire about the situation, and their tones are full of puzzlement.

Even Honghuang's own employees had doubts about this decision and did not understand why it was done.

Until.

A phone call.

suddenly called Chen Lin's private mobile phone.

"Chen Lin! It worked! Our research was a success! ”
