Chapter 439

Some people may wonder why founders such as Mike mohuami would sell 100% of Blizzard's shares so easily. Is this somewhat exaggerated and impractical.

The fact is that this is no exaggeration, because historically, in January 1994, after the release of Warcraft 1, the channel providers responsible for selling world of Warcraft were shocked when they saw the products of Warcraft 1 again.

So he spent $6.4 million and also bought 100% of the shares of blizzard.

Later, the dealer itself was acquired by a French entertainment group, and then the entertainment group was acquired by vidiwan. Finally, blizzard was sold to Activision by vidiwan and renamed Activision Blizzard.

Therefore, Blizzard has been in the stage of being sold, and the two founders of Blizzard have been serving as president and vice president successively, which has basically not changed.

Similarly, there are future fist companies. Many people may not know that fist company is actually a Chinese enterprise, because 99% of fist's shares were bought by Tencent.

Tencent also promised to hand over the control of the company to the two founders forever unless the founders quit, and Tencent is only responsible for investment.

This is also one of the behavioral characteristics of American business. That is, even if American businessmen buy the whole company, they generally don't move the founder of the company, but let the founder stay as much as possible, because basically, the founder is the best controller of the company.

After the acquisition of Huaxia enterprises, the most favorite thing to do is to kick out the founders.

For example, are you hungry, like Didi, like... Anyway, many familiar companies have basically kicked out their founders. Among all the big capital in China, Alibaba likes doing such things most.

Because Alibaba's control desire engraved in its bones must firmly control all acquired companies, those founders who have great prestige within the company, are very disobedient and have their own ideas will naturally be kicked out.

Well, but then again, boss Jia is actually a person with a strong desire for control. If he didn't know in advance that the two founders of Blizzard are naturally independent of the world and focus on game development, boss Jia didn't dare to hand over the R & D rights of the game to the two founders so decisively.

Well, back to business, boss Jia thought he could leave after signing the contract, but Mike mohuami kept Jia Yapeng, and then asked Jia Yapeng to give his opinions to see what else needs to be modified in world of Warcraft 1.

Mike Mohamed can't wait to ask boss Jia for advice because boss Jia is the founder of Pokemon, and Mike Mohamed now admires Pokemon games. In his eyes, boss Jia is one of the most awesome gamers in the world.

In fact, the same is true. After all, boss Jia has played all the Games in the next 30 years and put forward some shortcomings improvement plans, which is not as simple as playing.

However, boss Jia will not put forward too many suggestions for changes, otherwise there will be many things that are not in line with the times, and it will be worse at that time.

So after playing seriously for several times, boss Jia put forward some modification suggestions, such as operation mode.

Because the operation mode of Warcraft 1 is learned from Shanqiu, it is too anti-human. It is very different from the operation mode of later Warcraft, so boss Jia gave all the basic operation modes of later generations.

At the beginning, Mike Mohamed was a little skeptical about such operation methods, but after getting started, Mike Mohamed was surprised to find that it was easy to get started several times. Even players with disabled hands could operate very smoothly, and all operation methods were recorded and modified on the spot.

In addition to the operation mode, there are changes in the fog of war.

The original war fog of Warcraft 1 is the same as the war fog of Red Alert 2. Although it was black at the beginning, as long as the map is proved, the map will always be lit, and you can clearly see all the battles on the map.

At the suggestion of boss Jia, the fog of war has changed to the future. At first, the map is black. After you see the map clearly, you can see the specific terrain of the map, but each unit has a line of sight. Once the unit leaves, the map will be dark again.

These changes are very small, but in Mike mohuami's eyes, it is an epoch-making change. Mike mohuami later looked at Jia Yapeng's eyes, just like his lover's eyes, which made boss Jia creepy.

"By the way, there's one last thing!" boss Jia suddenly thought of something. "Mike, do you think the name of silicon and nerve bond in the company should be modified?"

"Yes, boss, I've long wanted to change this name!" Mike moweimi couldn't help laughing. "All employees said our name was terrible, because 99% of people couldn't pronounce the correct pronunciation of the word nerve key!"

"Then what name are you going to change?" boss Jia asked. In fact, it doesn't need Mike mohuami to say. Boss Jia also knows that the new name in Mike mohuami's heart must be blizzard.

"Well, I've already thought out the new name, and I've decided to change the name of the company to chaos studio!" Mike Mohamed said loudly, and boss Jia almost choked with saliva in his throat.

"What are you talking about? Chaotic studio?" boss Jia couldn't help asking again?

"Yes, boss, are you not satisfied with this name?" Mike Mohamed looked at boss Jia with some worry. This is a new name he thought hard for months. He was very satisfied. If boss Jia didn't agree, it would be trouble.

"It's all right! I have no opinion!" boss Jia shook his head and sighed in his heart. He stirred up butterfly wings again, so that he didn't even have the name blizzard.

At the same time, boss Jia is still worried about whether many classic games in the future will be lost by his butterfly wings.

But it doesn't matter. If the future is really gone, boss Jia can order Blizzard to create one himself. It's no big deal.

Just a few days later, boss Jia, who had returned to New York, suddenly received a call from Mike mohuami. Mike mohuami was very sad to tell boss Jia that when they applied to register the trademark chaos, they found that it had been registered by other game companies and they could not use the new name chaos,

So Mike moweimi said it would be better to ask the chairman to name the new company in person.

"That's Blizzard!" boss Jia said with a smile.
