Chapter 94 Let’s unite!
"This is the current situation." Qin Shaoyan pondered for two seconds and said, "The specific situation depends on the situation."
"The leaders of the agency are already discussing the issue of single-machine going to sea. But we can’t wait passively. After all, time is money in our industry.”
“My suggestion is that everyone should prepare early. If you are willing to try the North American market, you can sign up with me and I will do the rest. Arrangements.”
“Legal procedures and copyright applications can be handled on our behalf.”
Qin Shaoyan raised his head and looked at the calendar, "It's the New Year, so I won't say too much. Let's go back and think about it. Let's get together after the new year."
Everyone stood up one after another, rushing to shake Qin Shaoyan's hand.
"Thank you, Mr. Qin, for your advice."
"I will definitely come after the new year!"
"Mr. Qin will not forget us when he gets rich. We are all very grateful."
Qin Shaoyan smiled and shook hands with everyone one by one. When it came to Liu Kun, he added, "Boss Liu, please stay and take a break in my office. I will have a few words to chat with you later."
"Oh." Liu Kun was a little surprised and nodded quickly in agreement.
The stand-alone players left soon, and there were only a few online game players left in the conference room.
No one from Shanda, NetEase, Sohu, Penguin, and NetDragon came.
The remaining four families stared at each other, and the atmosphere was a little awkward for a while.
Especially He Jingmei from Sohu looked at Zeng Lin frequently.
Why don’t you leave? It will be inconvenient for us to discuss things if you don’t leave.
Zeng Lin made up his mind to sit here and see what they were going to do.
After seeing off the stand-alone gamers, Qin Shaoyan came back with a smile on his face to face several bosses.
"Boss, we are about to face a big trouble now." Qin Shaoyan started the group with a taunt.
Zeng Lin frowned, "Mr. Qin, if you have something to say, just talk about it, don't make such alarmist remarks."
Qin Shaoyan looked at Zeng Lin seriously, "Mr. Zeng asked me to finish what I said before I judge whether it's right or not." I’m not being alarmist. If you don’t want to hear it, I’ll send you downstairs now.”
Zeng Lin shut up angrily and stopped talking.
“Actually, my plan today is to only invite stand-alone game manufacturers, and I’ll talk to you tomorrow.” Qin Shaoyan sighed, “I made a mistake and sent the wrong text message, but it’s okay, everyone is here, so I’ll go ahead in advance. Let’s talk.”
“I have only one purpose in calling everyone here, and that is to call on several powerful companies to form an alliance.”
"Let's unite and deal with the same company together."
He Jingmei from Sohu was shocked when she heard this and looked at Qin Shaoyan in disbelief.
Mr. Qin, you are so brave. Rensheng hasn’t left yet, so just say this to his face.
NetEase and Penguin were also dumbfounded and looked at Qin Shaoyan together.
Zeng Lin stood up suddenly, surprised and angry, "Qin, what do you mean, who are you going to deal with?!"
Qin Shaoyan was very surprised, "Mr. Zeng, what's wrong with you? What's so exciting?"
Mr. Zeng laughed angrily, "Mr. Qin, you have the guts, come on, come on, I'll sit here today and listen. What advice do you have to deal with us, Shanda?"
"Mr. Zeng, are you kidding?" Qin Shaoyan glanced at him, "Is Shanda worthy of my action?"
"I'm talking about the second one. Nine cities."
"Ah?"
Sohu, NetEase, Penguin: (O_O)?
What the hell?
What does it have to do with The9?
Zeng Lin was confused by this turn of events. He didn't react for a while and asked in a daze: "Why should we deal with Jiucheng?"
"This is a good question." Qin Shao Yan smiled, "I said before, everyone is about to face a big trouble."
"Mr. Zeng, let me emphasize that I am not an alarmist."
"The Ninth City will be our biggest threat for at least the next two or three years." "This year, there are at least 70 online games that have been filed and ready to be launched. Next year There are more than a hundred games." Qin Shaoyan raised a finger and said solemnly, "The domestic market cannot handle so many online games. It is a blessing to survive even one or two percent."
“The oversaturated market is just one of them. Most of these online games are still 2D, with poor graphics and serious homogeneity in gameplay.”
“I just told the stand-alone game manufacturers that the game market We have made great strides into the 3D era, whether it is a stand-alone game or an online game.”
Zeng Lin looked at Qin Shaoyan with suspicion, "You are not going to sell your engine to us."
Qin Shaoyan replied lightly, "Our engine is only open to stand-alone games for the time being."< br>
Mr. He from Sohu was a little impatient, "Mr. Zeng, can you let Mr. Qin finish what he said? Everyone's time is precious."
Zeng Lin snorted and sat back.
"Blizzard has a 3D large-scale role-playing online game that has been secretly developed for several years, called World of Warcraft." Qin Shaoyan raised his voice and said solemnly, "According to the reliable information I received in the United States , this game will be officially released in North America this year.”
"This is a cross-generational online game, and its engine, R&D technology, gameplay mode, and graphics are all top-notch."
"Its emergence will have an immeasurable impact on the domestic online game market. "
"What I just said about dealing with Nine Cities, is actually not the Nine Cities, but World of Warcraft."
Zeng Lin reacted immediately and asked with some hesitation: "You mean. The9 has won the agency rights?”
Qin Shaoyan nodded, “According to my inside information at Blizzard, the negotiations between The9 Interactive, a subsidiary of The9, and Vivendi Universal Games have already reached substance. progress and an agreement will be reached soon.”
"The content of this agreement is very harsh, and I cannot disclose the specific amount and share ratio."
"But I can tell you that Blizzard not only demanded a high amount of copyright money, but also demanded that Ninetowns must Purchasing the latest and most top-notch servers requires a publicity fee of no less than 100 million. "
" Ninetowns would not make such a big gamble if it was not certain. "
Zeng. Lin was a little confused, "What does his bet have to do with us?"
Qin Shaoyan smiled, "If World of Warcraft comes, everyone will be affected. Shanda thinks he can be alone?"
Zeng Lin also laughed, "It's not like there are no companies that want to challenge Shanda in the past two years, but we only have one sentence, just give it a try."
"Mr. Qin, let me give you a piece of advice, young people, be careful. Don't be so surprised."
After that, Zeng Lin stood up, opened the door with his assistant and walked out.
Actually, he regretted coming back. After listening to what Qin Shaoyan said, it was as if he hadn't listened at all.
As heard.
What kind of alliance is there? I'm too lazy to talk to you about this.
If we really want to organize a game, Shanda still needs your small company to help us.
Qin Shaoyan didn’t care, and turned to look at NetEase’s Dong Ruilong, “Mr. Dong, when I go to the United States after the year, just send a person in charge from NetEase to go with me, and I will take care of the rest.”
Dong Ruilong nodded, feeling that it would be meaningless to listen any more, so he stood up and said goodbye, "I'll bother Mr. Qin then, bye."
"Goodbye." Qin Shaoyan stood up and said goodbye. He sent Dong Ruilong downstairs and said, "If NetEase needs to win awards in the future, just come to me. There is no guarantee whether you can win, but you can still do it with a few nominations."
Dong Ruilong smiled and complimented: "Mr. Qin has a wide network of contacts in the United States."
"More friends lead to more paths."
Originally, the people from NetEase came here just to create an atmosphere. Team, I have no intention of smearing anything on him.
If Shanda’s people are fooled away, NetEase will have no effect.
The real drama lies with the remaining two families.
When Qin Shaoyan returned to the conference room, only people from Sohu and Penguin were still sitting there.
He Jingmei frowned and looked at Qin Shaoyan, "Mr. Qin, what do you mean?"
