Volume 2: Storm Rising 2015 Chapter 339 Future Crisis
In the end, Brandon Greene solemnly signed a pledge, guaranteeing that the internal , and Zhou Dongsheng would then inspect the results.
Zhou Dongsheng was extremely satisfied with the result. After all, he had put in so much effort, with tens of millions of dollars as a foundation and 10% of the shares to leverage the pig factory's top technical support.
If all these conditions combined are still not enough to speed up the research and development progress of the father of battle royale, then Zhou Dongsheng will have a reasonable suspicion that this person is playing himself and is openly slacking off.
However, under the "involution" of the pig factory technicians, the technical team brought by Brandon Green was like a group of sardines being chased by a catfish, which successfully stimulated their subjective initiative.
Although they were foreigners, they did not slack off.
This is also the main reason why Brandon Green dared to guarantee that the internal beta version would be available by the end of the year. According to his original plan, the internal beta version would not be available until at least mid-2016...
It can be seen from this that this wonderful "catfish effect" has indeed played an extremely critical role.
Zhou Dongsheng vaguely remembers that the game industry will experience a license winter in the next few years, which will sweep across the entire industry and cause a major reshuffle.
Even gaming industry giants like Tencent and Tencent have been greatly affected by this industry winter, not to mention some small and medium-sized gaming companies.
As an ordinary game player, Zhou Dongsheng only had a vague impression of this matter. After all, he was not a senior practitioner and had never known the detailed information, so he naturally could not have forgotten it.
The only impressive memory may be the chicken-eating mobile game produced by Tenda. Due to the problem of version number, the recharge entrance has been unable to be opened. Although it ranks first in mobile games, it can only watch the gold mine.
There was even a rumor that if the game license was not released, Tengda might choose to cut off this long-term "loss-making" mobile game project...
Amid the mobile game PUBG craze that swept across the country, this news also caused a sensation. Many PUBG mobile game players had heard of it, and Zhou Dongsheng was one of them.
Many mobile game PUBG players said that as long as recharge is open, they will recharge as soon as possible to make up for the free money during this period and cheer for Tengda...
Zhou Dongsheng didn’t know whether Tengda was moved to tears or not, but he almost died of laughter when he saw the comments online at that time. Therefore, this incident left a deep impression on Zhou Dongsheng.
Thinking of this, Zhou Dongsheng also felt a little sense of urgency. He knew that the winter was coming for the gaming industry, but he didn't know when it would come.
However, if we calculate based on the time when Tenda's PUBG mobile game license was blocked, there should be plenty of time, after all, it was the first to launch a PUBG mobile game and successfully obtain a license...
It’s actually a pig factory!
When Tenda was promoting the legitimate PUBG mobile game and ambitiously preparing to dominate the PUBG mobile game market, Zhuchang had already taken the lead in the domestic PUBG mobile game market.
Whether it is Terminator or the more mature "Wild Action", both have allowed Zhuchang to successfully seize the initiative in the field of chicken-eating mobile games.
At that time, "PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds" swept the world and brought about a global chicken-eating craze. However, both the hardware threshold and its buyout charging model kept most gamers out.
Although a large number of Internet cafes have urgently upgraded their hardware and provided services such as rental accounts to welcome the last "last gasp" of the Internet cafe industry, there are still a large number of players whose enthusiasm for playing chicken cannot be satisfied.
At this time, the chicken-eating mobile game launched by Zhuchang catered to the needs of this group of players, and Zhuchang made a lot of money by relying on the advantage of obtaining the game version number first.
At the same time, the second brother, Zhuchang, also prepared for the chicken-eating mobile game craze that swept the country, and welcomed the shining debut of the big brother, Tencent.
Before playing Tenda's genuine PUBG mobile game, Zhou Dongsheng was one of the players whose PUBG addiction was satisfied by the pig factory, and he also made a small contribution to "Wild Action".
However, although Zhuchang successfully seized the initiative, it also gave Tenda sufficient preparation to catch up, even though "Wild Action" has tried very hard to restore the joy of eating chicken in mobile games.
However, with the advantage of being a latecomer, Tenda went all out and "unscrupulously" launched three chicken-eating mobile games at once, which not only competed with the Terminator and Knives Out from QQ Mobile.
At the same time, Tengda is simultaneously carrying out the popular Gu-raising process, with two games fighting each other, "Strike|Battlefield" on the left and "Central Attack" on the right. It can be said that Tengda's intentions are known to everyone.
As for the third PUBG mobile game, it seemed to be called "Glory Mission". It was only online for a short period of time, and was directly cancelled by Tenda because it was too backward...
Coincidentally, because Zhou Dongsheng has played these chicken-eating mobile games one by one, his memory of them is particularly deep.
Although Tenda's social ecosystem has many advantages, the reason why it ultimately won the championship is that the game "Battlegrounds" stood out and was too outstanding, surpassing other competitors.
Even Zhou Dongsheng's group of friends who were the first to get into "Wild Action" have all quit and joined Tengda.
Just following his thoughts, Zhou Dongsheng sorted out the ideas about eating chicken in his mind, and his thoughts became much clearer all of a sudden.
Although the cold winter of game licenses is like a sword of Damocles hanging over one's head , as one is supported by the pig factory, one can deal with it calmly.
Not to mention the version number of the PC game, even the version number of the mobile game can be solved with the help of the pig factory!
The value of this 10% technology investment was immediately apparent, and Zhou Dongsheng couldn't help but smile brightly.
Taking Li Jiana for a leisurely stroll back to Little People Media, Xu Kaidao came up to them with a smile on his face.
"Boss Zhou, have you inspected the gaming department next door?"
Zhou Dongsheng nodded and continued, "Old Xu, you came at the right time. I have a few things to tell you. Let's go to the office and talk."
"Great, Mr. Zhou." Xu Kaidao smiled even more. He waited for Zhou Dongsheng to go first and followed closely behind him, half a body length behind.
This made Li Jiana, who was standing by, feel a little uncomfortable, and she couldn't help but slow down her pace, which was originally keeping pace with Zhou Dongsheng.
Zhou Dongsheng didn't care at all. Old Xu was the kind of person who liked to pay attention to these details. Although Zhou Dongsheng didn't say it, he actually enjoyed it very much.
When they arrived at the office, Zhou Dongsheng was too lazy to make tea and went straight to the point, saying, "This trip to Pengcheng with Principal Wang was not without gain."
"Principal Wang's Banana Game Media has secured the rights to host the League of Legends tournament next year. As one of our company's shareholders, Principal Wang has not neglected one for the other."
"As for the official guest commentators, we will be given several permanent seats. Among them, celebrity guests like Xiao Sima and Saozhu are naturally needless to say. We can also use this opportunity to promote some of our newcomers..."
"For example, the newly signed Zhou Shuyi is a commentator from the "Game Storm" column..."
