Chapter 431
Qin Shaoyan asked confidently: "I, Qin Shaoyan, have always had a clear conscience. Why don't I dare to call you?"
Tan Qunzhao laughed angrily, "You still have the nerve to say that you have a clear conscience. Your Warring States period is marketing it in the name of legend, which has seriously damaged our rights and interests!"
"Mr. Tan, what you said doesn't make sense." Qin Shaoyan immediately retorted, "I am a top international game producer. The games I make have won so many international awards. Do I need to take advantage of your great fame?"< br>
"With the excellent quality of our "Warring States Online", do we need to rely on the reputation of the legend?"
"Do you believe that our "Warring States Online" was evaluated by the Golden Keyboard, and we will definitely win the award?"
"This is an excellent work that can win the highest award in online games. You say that we are trying to take advantage of the reputation of Legend. Ask if anyone believes this?"
Tan Qunzhao was stunned by a series of rhetorical questions. After a few seconds, he directly ridiculed, "You are a little too boastful in front of me. Do you think the Golden Keyboard Award is given by your family? You just get the award if you say you won it?" ”
Qin Shaoyan said calmly: "I am one of the nine judges, and I have the votes."
Tan Qunzhao was stunned again. He didn't suspect that Qin Shaoyan was bragging again. This kind of thing is easy to verify. The Golden Keyboard Award is not a secret organization, and the list of judges is public.
But Qin Shaoyan could sneak into it, which Tan Qunzhao didn't expect.
"What's the use of having only one person?" Tan Qunzhao questioned, "There are nine judges."
"Basically, Valve and I are on the same page. Microsoft has a good relationship with me and won't oppose me. Blizzard owes me a favor." Qin Shaoyan said calmly, "I don't only have one vote, but four. Tickets.”
Tan Qunzhao was shocked. Qin Shaoyan had four votes, which meant that as long as the game got his support, the chance of winning was very high.
After a moment of silence, Tan Qunzhao continued to question, "How do I know if you are bragging again."
"You can just ask NetEase if it's true." Qin Shaoyan sneered, "NetEase's Fantasy Westward Journey won the award this year."
Tan Qunzhao reacted immediately, surprised and angry, "It turns out that you have already decided to win the prize!"
"Excellent works have the opportunity to win awards." Qin Shaoyan said lightly, "I just provide guidance in advance on how to apply for the award."
"If Shanda wants to win an award, you can apply in advance. I will help you with the application process."
Tan Qunzhao was silent for a moment and suddenly asked: "Will it be troublesome?"
"It's not too troublesome, but you need to do some public relations in advance." Qin Shaoyan replied, "I can get four votes, and you only need to get one more."
"What are the stronger competitors for the 2006 grand prize?" Tan Qunzhao continued to ask.
"Do you have any good works?" Qin Shaoyan asked.
"..." Tan Qunzhao hesitated for a while and said forcefully, "There will always be."
Shanda has really not had any good games in the past two years. Chen Tianqiao is now mainly focusing on the "Shanda Box" and is not interested in the game business.
Although Shanda itself does R&D, they started by relying on agents. Their R&D capabilities cannot be said to be outstanding, but they can also be said to be better than nothing.
There used to be "Age of Heroes", but later it became the giant "Zhengtu". Shanda Game Department didn't care because their goal was all on 3D games.
Tan Qunzhao just wanted to evaluate the award, but he didn't have a project that he could win.
But like he said, there will always be.
Just because there isn't one this year doesn't mean there won't be one next year. Shanda also needs an international award to decorate its appearance.
As for whether it was unofficially decided or not, he didn't care.
It’s not that he hates unofficial decisions, but it’s not him who hates unofficial decisions. "If Mr. Tan has any good works that need awards, just contact me directly." Qin Shaoyan said with a smile, and then changed the subject, "What do Mr. Tan think of our game engine?"
Tan Qunzhao answered honestly, "Excellent, the picture performance is unparalleled."
"Does Shanda's R&D department need a 3D engine?" Qin Shaoyan asked, "We can provide it to Shanda for free and send dedicated personnel to provide guidance and teaching."
"Really?" Tan Qunzhao suddenly became more vigilant, "What's your conspiracy?"
"Mr. Tan, don't always think bad things about people." Qin Shaoyan sighed.
Tan Qunzhao sneered, how can you not make people think the worst when facing someone like you.
"I have no other intentions, Mr. Tan. All I do is for the development of our domestic game industry!" Qin Shaoyan said righteously, "I started by promoting stand-alone games to go overseas. I invested heavily in developing 3D engines to help domestic Game awards, these things I have done are obvious to everyone!”
"I really want to promote my own engine in the game industry, and even let small game studios use it for free. The purpose is to support domestic games and jointly fight against foreign games."
"And our engine has received support funds from the 863 Project!" Qin Shaoyan raised his voice, "I don't understand."
“Promoting our own game engine will benefit the country and the industry at the bottom, so why can’t it be promoted!”
"Is it really free?" Tan Qunzhao asked.
"There is also a paid version." Qin Shaoyan added, "However, the functions of the paid version are more suitable for stand-alone projects. The free version is enough for online games."
Tan Qunzhao felt relieved now. If there was paid content, things would be reasonable.
"Of course, I still have a little thing I want to discuss with Mr. Tan." Qin Shaoyan's tone became serious at this time, "I think this year's online game market is growing faster than last year, but cheats and private servers are repeatedly banned in the market, which is very harmful to us. The gaming industry is very harmful.”
"As the leader in the gaming industry, should Shanda take the lead?"
Tan Qunzhao frowned, "There was a special campaign a few years ago, and we sued a lot, but the results were not great."
"So we should strengthen the crackdown on this aspect." Qin Shaoyan raised his voice, "I contacted several influential companies in the industry and jointly reported it to the administrative department to launch another crackdown on cheating this year. ”
"Mr. Tan, you Shanda is a big brother in the industry. You won't just sit idly by, right?"
Tan Qunzhao thought for a moment, "Which companies are participating?"
"Sohu, NetEase, Penguin, and others are still in contact." Qin Shaoyan strikes while the iron is hot, "Other peers will be encouraged if Shanda joins."
Tan Qunzhao paused for a moment, "Okay, we Shanda are willing to join."
Qin Shaoyan put down the phone with a smile, and then called Penguin's little brother Ma, "Mr. Ma, this is Qin Shaoyan."
"We in the game industry are preparing to jointly launch an initiative to combat cheating. Sohu, NetEase, and Shanda are willing to join. Are you, Penguin, willing to join us?"
"Okay, okay." Brother Ma agreed happily, "We will respond positively. If you need anything, just ask."
Since Brother Xiao Ma acted decisively, Qin Shaoyan immediately began to say: "The two new online games I have produced are basically completed. When will Mr. Ren come over and take a look."
Ma Huateng's eyes lit up, "You can do it anytime. I'm looking forward to Mr. Qin's new work."
The two have agreed on a time, and Ren Yuxin, who is in charge of Penguin's game business, will go to the capital next week to discuss further cooperation issues.
After contacting several online game companies, Qin Shaoyan found Director Chen Pengchen, an acquaintance of the Publishing Department.
Chen Peng was silent for a moment after listening to Qin Shaoyan's appeal, and then shook his head, "I'm afraid this matter is not that simple."
