Chapter 509

Li Jianzhi, President of Sega, was furious at the high-level meeting, but seeing that the executives here looked at each other, no one dared to answer his questions directly.

Until a small piece of film, a female executive sitting beside him whispered, "president, we just signed two games with Tencent in Chinese mainland last month.

Li Jianzhi's face solidified for a moment. He suddenly remembered that he was full of joy when a representative of Tencent personally visited and asked to represent Sega's games a few months ago.

Before that, the transformation of Sega games to the mobile terminal was not smooth, and one of the main reasons for the failure was that both the Japanese mobile game market and the global mobile game market were basically dominated by Huizhong's games.

Since Apple launched the Appstore in 2008, Sega's game "Super Monkey Ball" has been squeezed from the top of the list by the fruit Games launched by Huizhong. Sega has a feud with Huizhong company, but Sega has always regarded Huizhong as its own enemy and competitor, but Huizhong doesn't care about Sega at all.

Therefore, when the representative of Tencent company came to the door in person, Tencent and Sega hit it off and reached a cooperation agreement. Li Jianzhi said to his subordinates at that time: "the enemy of the enemy is a friend."

What Li Jianzhi didn't expect is that now the benefits of the two cooperation have not been seen, and the disadvantages of the cooperation have come out first. Both Li Jianzhi and Sega executives subconsciously believe that Huizhong didn't invite Sega to prepare for the WCG organizing committee because they cooperated with Tencent, Huizhong's sworn enemy!

The actual situation is that Sega looks up to itself a little too much. Huizhong didn't invite Sega to cooperate, just because Sega didn't have projects qualified for WCG, and Sega's position in the game industry has long declined, much worse than before.

Huizhong is determined to reform WCG. How can it choose only games from big manufacturers and sponsors like WCG before? Even for its arch enemy Tencent, Huizhong also sent an invitation before, but was rejected by Tencent!

In Tencent's view, the WCG International Organizing Committee, led by Huizhong and with absolute voice, is ambitious. It doesn't matter if you don't join. If you join, I'm afraid Tencent games will never have a foothold in the future.

There are not a few big global game manufacturers with the same idea as Tencent, including the famous Blizzard game in the industry, Microsoft with very strong game business and Nintendo in Japan, also did not join WCG.

However, Fang Zhe and Huizhong don't care very much. His purpose of leading the establishment of WCG International Organizing Committee is, on the one hand, to promote the prosperity of the global game industry and e-sports industry, on the other hand, to reduce the pressure on Huizhong to accelerate steam globalization after holding valve company.

Huizhong holding valve company has terrified many big game manufacturers around the world. It is only a matter of time before Huizhong can transform steam into a big Mac in the game market like steam China.

In this process, many big game manufacturers are faced with two choices. One is to adhere to independence and still go through the old road of issuing and operating games independently. The other is to embrace this change and catch the fast train of steam's global rapid development. The sooner you get on the bus, the greater the benefits you will get.

The holding of dota2 finals and the preparation of WCG International Organizing Committee are such an opportunity. The former allows these big game manufacturers to see the possible achievements after embracing steam and cooperating with Huizhong, while the latter is the benefit sharing and voice distribution of multi-party cooperation.

The CEOs of game companies who saw the data and results of dota2 finals believe that WCG, which belongs to the e-sports industry and game industry, will become the world's top event such as NBA, Olympic Games and even world cup in the future!

In order to reduce the hostility of global game manufacturers, steam global also opened a special brand zone in the update of the last version. This zone only recommends the classic games of global famous game manufacturers cooperating with steam. The cooperation agreements signed between steam and these game manufacturers are also drafted separately. The greater the influence of the game, the greater the sharing and voice of game manufacturers.

Even for the top classic games such as "best flying car 17" to be released by Yidian, the steam platform does not receive any game revenue share at all except for the fixed promotion fee and operation fee. Such a policy has attracted many game manufacturers. After all, the user base of steam is there. This kind of cheap is not for nothing!

The establishment and reform of WCG International Organizing Committee and the global reform of steam have reduced the difficulties and resistance for Huizhong to control the further globalization of steam. Even with the hard bone of Tencent blizzard, Huizhong still adheres to independent development, which can not change the trend and trend of Huizhong becoming the Wulin leader of the global game industry and promoting the development of the global game industry!

When Mr. Ma of Tencent heard the news that Huizhong led the establishment of the WCG International Organizing Committee, he sat in the office all afternoon sadly. He suddenly understood that the joint plan of the three bat companies for Huizhong was just a joke.

Mr. Ma thinks he has found an opportunity to deal with Huizhong games, but at most, he just engages in the Chinese market with some overseas game manufacturers who are unwilling to cooperate with Huizhong, and Fang Zhe and Huizhong have seen the world for a long time.

On the other hand, the communication between Alibaba, which focuses on the social direction of Huizhong, has also begun to cool down recently. There are even rumors that Zhang Yong, CEO of Alibaba tmall, personally came to Fang Zhe to "apologize" and heard that the two companies intend to cooperate.

The only one who hasn't competed with Huizhong for the time being is Baidu, one of the three bat companies. However, President Ma's understanding of Baidu's Li zongjin's character and Baidu's mobile transformation in recent years are not smooth. What climate has Baidu become in the face of Huizhong?

No matter whether it can become a climate or not, Baidu's action against Huizhong, or the strategic plan formulated by President Li for Baidu, is already on the line and has to be issued.

At the end of August, just a few days after the dota2 finals, google announced that it would invest 10 billion yuan in the next two years to develop Baidu cloud business, especially the personal cloud business for individual users!

As soon as the news came out, the national cloud computing industry and the Internet industry were shocked. In the past two years, the word cloud computing has become a hot topic and future of the Internet industry. Everyone believes that the cloud computing industry is a large market worth hundreds of billions of dollars.

It's just that cloud computing has the characteristics of large investment, complex technology and high starting threshold. Not to mention start-ups, large and medium-sized Internet companies such as Sina and 360 dare not do it at all. In addition, Huizhong cloud, which started early and invested heavily, has long ridden the dust, firmly controlling the cloud computing business in most domestic commercial fields, and other Internet companies, There is no idea of cloud computing.

The two remaining players in the domestic cloud computing field are Alibaba cloud, which started early but developed miserably and can only rely on its own e-commerce business, and Baidu cloud, which focuses on Huizhong cloud and Alibaba cloud, which involve less personal cloud business.

Now Baidu's decision to invest another 10 billion yuan in Baidu cloud is like a big stone, which has hit the domestic Internet industry that could not see the opportunity!
