American Fortune Life

Chapter 1070: The Wolf Behind The Tiger

“Blair, do I really give the impression that money is scarce? Why would they think I would sell My World, give up sustainable development, and choose to kill chickens for eggs?

I seem to not only give the impression that they are short of money, but also that they may have, like, brain problems... ”

Hearing Big BOSS's self-derision trough, Blair's forehead black line swung wildly, some embarrassing contiguous head shook, saw the cold smile in the corner of the boss's mouth in the video, he naturally saw the boss's aversion to Microsoft's third harassment several times, hurriedly and bitterly said.

“Boss, they know the prospects for acquisition are slim, but they're giant companies, always wondering, how do you know if it's possible without trying? Perhaps this refusal is due to a lower bid and try again next time at a higher price.

Some giant bullies, when their own professional projects develop bottlenecks, wave irresistible cheques to acquire, invest, infiltrate and let their tentacles stretch horizontally for industrial diversification.

The Mockingjay Gaming Company was so anxious because it was your private proprietary owner that after all, the development and benefits of Mockingjay were too much for many people. ”

“These people are always too smart to think of themselves, too stupid to look at others, and don't pay back for this kind of acquisition of My World in the future.” Andy smiled coldly and, to be honest, he kind of hated people cheating on his assets.

"My World" is not just a game that players can only describe by magic, but also by Andy, because it's a simple game that allows them to keep circulating money from players.

Since there are no fixed tasks and fixed maps in the game, even if the new version is updated, the changes are not significant, just fix some bugs and add some species of trees, animals and rocks. This is basically what the game version changes.

But for the players who are already obsessed with My World, different versions can have different fun. In their view, as long as it's not a bug that can cause a game crash, it's a rule that can be used, and they're willing to spend time looking and researching it, and the more they study it, the more they become fascinated.

“So is there anything else? ”

Blair heard the boss ask, no longer tangled up with the previous thing, but took some photos of the video screenshots and showed them to Andy in front of the camera and started explaining them.

“Boss, this is a classic chessboard online game called" Breaking Through the Campus ", which is more like an on-campus or inter-school sport than a typical online video game, where individuals or small groups compete.

Groups can be made up of hundreds or even thousands of players who can fight on behalf of real-world bedrooms or schools, compete for hegemony on campuses or on specific maps, occupy scenes in hostile school games, and display real-world competition online.

I think this online tour is interesting and represents a new game that brings together participants from community activities in the real world into a common web cause.

And the rules of this game are pretty simple. The in-game system assigns a certain amount of troops to each player on a daily basis, and the player must coordinate attacks, deploy generals, and defend with his teammates. Players can mobilize troops once a day, while game software uses algorithms to calculate conflict outcomes and give defenders some "benefits”.

While the game is currently slightly rough in all its aspects, the core idea of the game is highly desirable. ”

Looking at some rough game scenes on the big screen, a small army formation, and Blair's explanation, Andy couldn't help but scream and touch his chin with interest, slightly squinting his eyes.

“Oh, it's kind of funny. Somebody's got some ideas with me, Blair. You show me this game, do you have any ideas? ”

“Yes, boss, the game was developed by four Yale undergraduate students and one Columbia undergraduate student, and is currently being brutally slaughtered by Yale and two Colombian schools, where players will gather offline to develop battle plans, select commanders, hire players from other schools, discuss strategies and how to spy on hostilities.

I think this game has the potential for a big fire between American colleges, and I want to acquire it and upgrade it again, optimizing the images, the military, the props, the maps, the system, and then roll it out to American colleges, run it for free, and make money from advertising implants. ”

Looking at the smile on his big BOSS face, and what he had said earlier that matched his thoughts, Blair knew his boss was interested in the game as well.

“Oh, nice idea, five people working together to develop... Tsk, how much do you think it would cost to get five people to agree to sell this game?” Andy smiled on his face and looked at Blair with interest and asked.

“Between 2 and 3 million, if they don't agree, we'll develop a new game to compete with them!” Blair said faintly, with a glimmer of cunning power in his eyes.

“Oh, to be honest, I actually have an idea of this type, but my game is a hand tour, and it's also a networked match, but it focuses more on the individual versus the individual, and I think about the name of the game, it's called" Tribal Conflict. "

And you said, "Breaking Through the Campus" is really interesting, it doesn't need to be built, you just need to go online every day to get a team, and then you can kill alone, or you can fight between dormitories and dormitories, colleges and colleges, schools and schools, and if it's promoted, you can even do world-renowned school caravans, it's good, it's very exciting, I agree with your intention to acquire, and you can even absorb these five people directly into the company and take charge of the follow-up development of this game. ”

“Boss, has your Tribal Conflict project been written? If we can, I think we can start this project now.” Blair asked eagerly, knowing that the big boss's game plan was a moneylender, which of the previous games was not a hot game, but almost all were money printers.

“Not yet, I'll get it out as soon as possible, you can start the Acquisition of" Breaking Across the Campus "," Tribal Conflict "I need to make a good plan, no rush... ”

To be honest, Andy really doesn't want to throw out the Tribal Conflict project so early. After all, the smartphone penetration rate is not high yet. Although Android is already open to the market, the first Android phone is not yet available, and it is still the Apple monopoly smartphone market.

Also, three days later, on June 10, Jobs will be hosting the annual Global Developers' Conference at the Moscow Nice Center in San Francisco, where the second generation of crazy 3G phones will be launched, and Andy has been personally invited by Jobs.

To be honest, Andy and now Apple are almost completely torn apart, after all, their peers are the wrongdoers.

Of course, Andy and Apple's direct competition focus is still mainly on APP stores. At present, although Apple has not completely closed the Free City APP Store port, it has also defaulted in removing the embedded icon of Free City APP Store from its initial mobile program, leaving Apple's own sales platform behind.

And the Free City APP Mall is only getting $100 million in liquidated damages paid by Apple, but the impact on Free City APP Mall is definitely fatal.

This has led some of the best ISO system software developers to focus on Apple's official platform.

And Android based APP software is not without rivals, and there are rumours that Google wants to build its own official Android sales platform, but since Android phones are not yet available, this idea has not yet been implemented.

But Andy knows that it's only a matter of time before Google comes down to take market share. After all, Google opens Android and makes it available for free to mobile phone manufacturers around the world. Google doesn't really want to be a saint. Google still charges a patent fee.

Of course, this patent fee is no longer exclusive to Google, and you know that when the alliance was formed, Andy got involved with several of his IT companies and got some rights in case Google used patent barriers against Andy's Freedom City APP mall.
