Gable's hands trembled slightly as he pulled out a thick stack of documents from his briefcase.
"Lin, I plan to develop an instant first person shooting game called World War. In our planned "World War", we will include all countries in reality. Combined with your "Asian Internet" concept, the game will adopt global Internet, including all players in one game server. " Gabriel's excited voice said with a little tremor.
When Lin Feng heard this, he was stunned. The plan of World War and global interconnection is not simple, but also exciting! Lin Feng also began to be a little excited, even trembling.
"Lin, this" World War "game, players from each country belong to their own camp. There will be two leagues in the game. Players from each country can choose to join one of the leagues by voting, or create new leagues independently after completing the ultimate task in the game. Players who join the League will be able to attack other league players, capture their "territory" and occupy them completely. And every country has its own territory and cities of different sizes according to the reality. Except for the capital, which can only be occupied after seizing resources, other cities can be completely occupied. " Gabriel introduced world war to Lin Feng with an excited tone.
"Yes, and each country has different weapons, and there will be tanks, planes, ships and other war tools in the game. This will be an unprecedented online game." Minh Le said excitedly.
"This is our detailed development plan for World War. Lin, look at it. I'm sure you will be as excited as me." Gable handed Lin Feng a thick plan.
Lin Feng took it and just looked at it. Then he felt that the prospect of the game was huge. He could not help but immediately develop it, launch it into the market, and play it well. This "World War" is not just as simple as Gabriel's description, it's just a first person shooting game. In it, players from all countries can upgrade their defense buildings and means of production buildings in their own cities by completing tasks. Of course, they can also plunder resources by conquering cities in hostile countries.
In short, this "World War" is a combination of "StarCraft" + "simulated city" + "anti terrorist elite", in which players have almost unlimited freedom. The theme of the game is hot-blooded war, but if you don't want to fight in the battlefield all day long, you can choose to become a city builder to improve the city's defense and economy by completing various tasks. In short, players can become various professions in it, not limited to a single profession, and there is no need for any professional skills among professions, as long as they complete system tasks. In this way, the "aesthetic fatigue" of the game can be delayed to the maximum extent, and a variety of occupations can be provided for the players to play the game.
And it can capture the enemy territory developed by imitating the real world, which is undoubtedly the dream war game of all men. Lin Feng believes that if the game is developed, there is no doubt that it will be the world's first online game. I'm afraid that the number of game players will exceed everyone's imagination, and the number of game players will be hundreds of millions. Of course, there are many problems.
"Will such games be blocked by all countries? After all, as you say, it's a map of the world modeled after the real world. " This is Lin Feng's biggest concern. If the game is blocked by various countries, it will be meaningless.
"No, we will completely take the future world as the background, and there is no intersection with reality, just the shape. What's more, the age of Empires is as popular as any other nation. " Gabriel said cunningly.
Lin Feng nodded, as long as the name and title of any country in the real world did not appear in the design. After all, in the game, it is possible to occupy the territory of hostile alliance countries and plunder each other's resources, which must be cautious.
"Is there any technical problem?" Asked Lin Feng. If there is no problem, Lin Feng believes that they will not come.
"Technically, there are not too many problems. We can all overcome them. Only the lack of funds, the development of the game funds Gable said helplessly.
"How much?" Asked Lin Feng.
"100 million dollars. At least so much money is needed to start the game development. This game scenario is too large, and the scale and content involved are too wide. I'm afraid its development team will also set a record. I estimate that it will cost at most 200 million to 300 million dollars. " Gabriel looked eagerly at Lin Feng. With such a huge game development fee, gable can't think of anyone who has so much money and believes in the future prospects of this plan. Besides, only Lin Feng can operate this game.
Lin Feng suddenly, it is obvious that gable and others come here to ask for funds from themselves. However, I am not short of money now, but I need to consider whether it is personal investment or "second world" investment.
"Lin, this time we are not only looking for funds, but also for cooperation." Gabriel said.
"Cooperation?" Lin Feng didn't understand gable.
"Lin, to be honest, we can't stay in the United States any longer. We're tired of the endless lawsuits with snow mountain. And it's really hard to feel constrained everywhere. This time we're here to cooperate with the second world and form an alliance company. " Gabriel said bitterly.
"Alliance?" Lin Feng was stunned.
"It's the merger of our two companies to form a new company and become the overlord of the computer game industry." Gabriel said.
Lin Feng frowned, but his "second world" is like the sun. Although valve is good, and it is also a famous brand in the computer game industry, Lin Feng doesn't want his company to become the vassal of the other party. Moreover, although the other party is famous, it can't compare with his company in financial resources.
"Ha ha, Lin, this is our cooperation plan. You can study it." Gable handed Lin Feng a cooperation plan.
Lin Feng took a general view. The so-called cooperation is more like valve's initiative to merge into the "second world", and cooperation is just a fig leaf. If so, Lin Feng is very interested. In addition to the most famous anti terrorist elite, half life is the best-known stand-alone game, which is the real competitive product of valve. If you can cooperate, it will definitely benefit you to enter the stand-alone game market.
"All right, Gabriel, take a break. I've prepared a hotel for you. You go to have a rest. I'll talk to the company's shareholders. " Lin Feng said.
Gabriel nodded. This time, he has no choice but to propose a merger plan. 1、 In the United States, the company was forced too hard by snow mountain, and the lawsuits between the two sides were endless, which affected the whole valve company, and even the normal operation could not be guaranteed. And Mike, another partner of the company, just last month irresponsibly sold all the shares of the company and went on a so-called global holiday, which is a serious blow to the company.
At the same time, Half-Life 2, which has been in the process of research and development, is also in trouble. It has exhausted the capital of valve company, but the game produced by it makes gable extremely dissatisfied and denounces it as rubbish. Therefore, it is imperative to seek cooperation. But what makes gable really determined is that Minh Le, based on Lin Feng's "anti terrorism elite online" Asian Internet program, proposed "World War" - this first person shooting game that will be globally connected and let players play on the same server. Gable is very optimistic about its prospects.
But it's not hard to develop World War online, as long as you have money. However, if we want to be globally connected, there is a lack of lethal software - Lin Feng's "cloud computing". Without Lin Feng's "cloud computing", let alone the global Internet, even countries can't get out. But "cloud computing" is now owned exclusively by Lin Feng, and Lin Feng does not intend to publish it, so he must cooperate with Lin Feng.
After thinking about it, gable thought of the alliance with Lin Feng and the merger of the two companies. With Lin Feng's financial resources and "cloud computing", plus his own technology, it is a perfect match. Moreover, gable can get rid of the endless lawsuit with snow mountain company. Why not. The only thing that makes gable reluctant is that once the merger is bound to be dominated by Lin Feng's company, he will no longer be the CEO.
Of course, after the merger, Lin Feng can't give gable a "second world" vice president in order to balance. In addition, gable doesn't attach much importance to rights. What he longs for is success in game software, which makes gable make up his mind to merge the two companies.
Lin Feng is not clear about gable's ideas, but the merger plan is extremely attractive. Lin Feng immediately held an emergency shareholders' meeting to discuss this matter. Based on the importance of this matter, Li Zekai, who is far away from Hong Kong, also attended the meeting by telephone.
"What do you think of the plan, folks?" Asked Lin Feng.
Cui Ming, as the head of the first game development department of the "second world", also owns 5% of the company's shares. He appreciates the plan, but he is a little repellent. Now, although he owns the development and maintenance rights of legend and dance company in "second world", it is obvious that these two games are not the focus of the company. Before, the company focused on "love under the sword online". Now, once he merges with valve, the "World War" will definitely be the top priority of the company. At that time, his position will be more embarrassing. However, in terms of professional ethics, Cui Ming still expressed his true views.
"Mr. Lin, I think the merger plan of valve is completely acceptable, but our company must have a leading position. This cooperation will make our company a leader in computer game industry Cui Ming said.
Lin Feng nodded and looked at other directors of the game development department( To be continued, if you want to know the future, please log in www.qidian.com , more chapters, support authors, support legitimate reading!)
