Volume 3: Taking Roots 2016 Chapter 593: Interesting
Therefore, even if it wanted to compete with Tencent, it was helpless and could only rely on the reputation of "Fantasy Westward Journey" and rank below the three generals of Tencent.
However, Ding Sanshi did not expect that a phenomenal game like "PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds" would be born unexpectedly. Judging from the current momentum, it might even be able to compete with the three major players of Tencent!
Moreover, they can also take a bite of the e-sports cake that Tencent has been carefully managing for a long time...
Thinking of this, Ding Sanshi suddenly made up his mind. He would not fight for the steamed buns but for his reputation. This time, he would definitely compete with Tencent Games.
If nothing else, just so that I can breathe a sigh of relief at the dinner in Wuzhen, it will be absolutely worth it!
Thinking of this, Ding Sanshi couldn't help but laugh out loud, with a peaceful face like Maitreya Buddha, so much so that Wang Yi on the other end of the phone was a little confused.
Why is Mr. Ding so happy all of a sudden? Is he thinking of something happy? He is already this old, it can't be that his wife gave birth to a child, right?
“Judging from the current data performance of PlayerUnknown’s Battlegrounds, it has already set off a phenomenal popularity that cannot be replicated, and it also proves that the innovative mode of Battle Royale is indeed a blue ocean in the current game market…”
“So turning it into a mobile game is inevitable. In addition to considering obtaining the original license for PlayerUnknown’s Battlegrounds, we can also try to independently develop a game based on this game mechanism…”
Ding Sanshi gave Wang Yi an affirmative answer, but he changed the subject right after he finished speaking.
"But I'm more looking forward to the PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds professional league. We at Tencent should definitely strongly support something related to e-sports. We can't let Tencent take all the credit, right?"
When Wang Yi heard this, he immediately understood what his boss meant. Doesn't this mean that the sky is clear, the rain has stopped, and the perennial second-in-command feels that he is capable again?
However, after Ding Sanshi said this, Wang Yi couldn't help but feel excited and eager to make a move, just like how there is no such thing as a crown prince who has been a prince for 70 years...
If possible, who would want to be the second forever?
Originally, when Tencent Games announced that it would shift its focus to the mobile game field, NetEase Games naturally followed suit, preparing to continue to compete with Tencent in the new battlefield of mobile games.
After all, the PC game market has been settled, and Tencent's three generals are as stable as Mount Tai and difficult to shake. They can only look for breakthroughs in the uncertain mobile game market.
No one expected that PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds could suddenly emerge as a dark horse in the declining PC gaming market, and create a phenomenal craze that no one could ignore.
It is as incredible as breaking free from shackles in the Dharma-Ending Age.
With such an unexpected opportunity before him, Wang Yi had to consider whether this was his only chance in the PC game market!
If we can take this opportunity to compete with Tencent, and if we can also grab some benefits from the e-sports sector that Tencent currently attaches great importance to, then it will naturally be even better...
Thinking of this, Wang Yi said decisively: "I understand, President Ding. E-sports is a stage that gives more opportunities to young people. Our pig factory naturally cannot miss it, and we should also strongly support it."
Ding Sanshi was very satisfied after hearing this. "Wang Yi is the one who knows me well. If that's the case, then we should do it well. At least we can't lose face for the pig farm..."
"Don't worry, Mr. Ding. Even if I lose face, I will not lose face for the pig farm!" Wang Yi promised solemnly.
"That's wrong. You are the vice president of Zhuchang Games. You can't lose face..." Ding Sanshi said meaningfully.
Wang Yi felt warm in his heart, and smiled and tried to test: "I understand, President Ding, I will negotiate directly with President Zhou. Our Pig Factory can contribute to the subsequent professional league as the organizer..."
"Okay, just go ahead and do it. I hope you can give me a surprise." Ding Sanshi nodded lightly and agreed.
Since zhuchang is going to quit, the title of organizer will naturally not fall into the hands of others. No one except Tencent is qualified to compete with zhuchang.
…
At the same time, in the brightly lit Tencent building, the well-mannered Xiao Ma Ge stood in front of the huge floor-to-ceiling window, and it was unclear whether he was overlooking the night view of Pengcheng or admiring his own empire.
Today's Tenda has long gone beyond the scope of an Internet company, and it is not an exaggeration to describe it as an empire.
By making full use of its capital advantage to cast a wide net and catch more fish, Tenda 's tentacles have already extended into all walks of life and quietly built the foundation of a huge Internet empire.
Although the tactic of using a big stick in one hand and a sweet date in the other is simple and crude, it has been used to perfection by Tengda. Any company targeted by Tengda can only choose between the two.
Either join him or...
Tengda, once a brave man and now a vicious dragon, vividly illustrates this truth.
Even so, no matter how big Tengda's net is, it is not bigger than the French net. There are still criminals outside the French net, so it is reasonable that there will be fish that slip through Tengda's net...
The only thing that surprised Xiao Ma was that the source of all this was actually the "fellow villager" he met at the dinner party in Wuzhen...
At such a young age, he has already caused so much trouble one after another. Even Xiao Ma Ge felt a little sad.
"It's true that every generation has talented people, and each of them leads the trend for hundreds of years. It seems that I am indeed old. After all, the stage is for young people..." Xiao Ma Ge sighed casually.
As the first generation of leading figures in the domestic Internet, they are all nearly 50 years old. As the saying goes, at 50, one knows the destiny. At this age, they already know what are the things that are beyond human control.
Brother Xiao Ma stood with his hands behind his back, smiling, "No wonder Old Ding is so interested in this young man. He is really interesting. If I snatch it from Old Ding, I wonder if he will get angry with me?"
Of course, this kind of evil idea only flashed through Xiao Ma Ge's mind. Although Zhou Dongsheng's current performance is amazing, it is not to the point where Xiao Ma Ge needs to be humble to him.
It's just that since they have some connections, they will naturally pay more attention to him, especially in the projects of Tengda Investment Department, where Zhou Dongsheng's name has appeared one after another...
This is what Xiao Ma Ge is most interested in. This young man is really sharp-eyed and can actually compete with the talented Tengda Investment Department...
Or is there someone with great power behind the scenes directing the effort, and Zhou Dongsheng is just a spokesperson?
After all, for Brother Ma, who is already used to it, the authenticity of the four words "started from scratch" is obviously questionable.
The so-called self-made man is sometimes just another excuse for white gloves...
However, Xiao Ma Ge did not take it seriously. He just thought it was interesting. According to this development trend, this young man would probably be able to attend the next Wuzhen dinner with a legitimate reason, right?
The thought flashed through his mind, and as for the series of commotions caused by "PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds", Xiao Ma Ge naturally didn't take it to heart.
He just needs to sit back and let his people solve the problem.
