Rebirth of the Evil Life

Chapter 21 Piracy Gate

(Favorites are always dropping, and Sanjiang is always out of action. It’s nowhere in sight to put it on the shelf, and I’m happy with the Chinese Valentine’s Day!)

At noon the next day, Lin Feng received a call from Meng Dong. On the phone, Meng Dong told Lin Feng that the municipal government held an executive meeting in the morning and focused on discussing yesterday's "Chu Tian Feng Cai" report on the Daya chemical injury incident, and set up a special investigation team. The Public Security Bureau, Environmental Protection Bureau and other relevant departments Jointly dispatched to assist Cha Daya Chemicals.

Lin Feng was naturally not dissatisfied with this. However, Meng Dong finally euphemistically stated that the live broadcast talk interview proposed by Lin Feng was not accepted for the time being, and he begged Lin Feng to cooperate in continuing to accept the interview, or adopt the method of recording and broadcasting. This is because Meng Dong is afraid that Lin Feng will take the opportunity to attack Hu Xiaoli during the live broadcast, so it is more appropriate to record and broadcast for safety.

Lin Feng didn't express too much dissatisfaction with this, anyway, he just took the opportunity to build up the company's reputation.

After the report about Lin Feng's solo interview was broadcast for three consecutive days, Lin Feng instantly became a celebrity in Chu City. After all, he is young and promising, and he is the first multi-millionaire to be publicized in Chu City——or dollars.

This troubled Lin Feng extraordinarily. When Jiang Dan reported, he also reported his signing with Tencent, and invited economic experts to analyze the market value of 5% of Tencent shares held by Lin Feng and 89.5% of Dingdang shares. The economic experts initially estimated the total Worth around $15 million.

Once this report was broadcast, Lin Feng's annoyance increased several times. Not only relatives and friends came to him, but also various welfare organizations came to him one after another, begging Lin Feng to sponsor various welfare organizations, which made Lin Feng dumbfounded. Although according to economists' estimates, he does have $15 million in assets, but this is only an estimate. Before the stock failed to list, he was a poor man and had no money to donate at all.

But what made Lin Feng even more depressed was that no one believed him when he said he had no money to donate. On the contrary, he called him rich and unkind, and a villain got his ambitions. This made Lin Feng very angry, but even more helpless. In the end, in order to avoid these people, Lin Feng didn't go to the company at all, and went directly to the disc factory.

After three days of rushing work day and night, 20,000 CDs have been preliminarily printed. In order to ensure that the game would not be pirated and sold by pirates in the first place, Lin Feng selected buyers from Beijing, Shanghai, Tianjin and other places among the 90,000 orders after screening, and none of the buyers from coastal places such as Shenzhen and Guangzhou , After all, there is a piracy base. Lin Feng didn't want the pirated version to leave the factory as soon as the disc was released.

After the game CD was sent out, I waited for two more days. After these players received the game trial, more videos of personal playing broke out on the Internet, and all relevant game forums gave "Counter-Strike" (Counter-Strike) rave reviews , The players who couldn't get the game discs kept calling the company to urge them, and more orders came pouring in.

When Lin Feng's second batch of 50,000 CDs was printed, the order increased by another 50,000 copies. The happy Lin Feng and everyone in the company laughed from ear to ear.

However, problems were also exposed at this time. Since this game is an online battle method, many players who got the CD can only familiarize themselves with the game after installing it, and cannot play against it. If you want to really experience the fun of this game, you have to take the CD to an Internet cafe. Only some players who happen to be connected to the local area network with the residents of the same building can really enjoy the fun of this game. But even so, online is not convenient. After all, everyone's rest time is not uniform.

Although many Internet cafe owners have also purchased the CD of "Counter-Strike" (Counter-Strike), and installed it to provide local battles. But for a large number of buyers who personally own computers, the environment of Internet cafes cannot be compared with that at home.

In response to this situation, Lin Feng immediately contacted the valve development team and proposed the idea of ​​"robot". After hearing this, MinhLe, the father of CS, felt that this idea was very good, and immediately ordered the valve development team to develop this program. In less than a day, the robot program was successfully produced and put on the Internet for free download.

Lin Feng put it on Dingdang.com,

Free download for players who bought the disc. After having this program, the sales increased again, and before the first interview with the first pirated CD, Lin Feng sold a total of 200,000 copies. Although this sales volume is nothing compared to "Legend of Sword and Fairy", which cost millions of copies, but for Lin Feng and the entire company, it is the largest single income since the establishment of the company.

200,000 copies, 20 yuan each, is a gross income of 4 million yuan. In addition to the cost of 3 yuan, Luo Tao's sinicization team earned 1 yuan, and the Valve development team received a 40% dividend. Lin Feng earned a total of 1.92 billion yuan in net profit this time, which is still cash. This made the cash-strapped Lin Feng greatly ease the company's economic crisis.

What makes Lin Feng even more delighted is that the sales boom of "Counter-Strike" (Counter-Strike) and the cooperation with Tencent have brought 100,000 registered sellers to Lin Feng's Dingdang.com, and 1 million registered sellers. Buyers, nearly 10 million clicks per day. Dingdang.com has faintly rivaled Yi X.com.

The so-called good fortune depends on misfortune, and misfortune depends on blessing. While Lin Feng reaped good news, there was also bad news.

"Hey, Brother Lin, congratulations, the "Counter-Strike" (Counter-Strike) you sold on Dingdang.com is very popular, and you have made a lot of money!" change.

"But Brother Lin, your game must not be a pirated version!" Ma Huateng's tone was indescribably anxious.

"What do you mean?" Lin Feng was slightly taken aback.

"Today someone posted on the Internet saying that your game is actually a game released by a foreign development team called Valve. It provides free downloads around the world and makes money by selling CD-keys to provide global networking services. And your game does not provide any CDs. -key, said that you are a pirate, and implying that we Tencent is also a pirate sales assistant." Ma Huateng sent Lin Feng a website.

Lin Feng opened it and saw that it was indeed a critical report on his sale of the game. The report directly pointed out that Lin Feng was a pirate, and appealed to all those who bought CDs to refund their money, otherwise they would be sued by foreign companies.

And this incident was dubbed the "Piracy Gate" incident by many netizens who responded to the post. Players who bought the disc didn't care about it, they just continued to wait and see with the mood of watching a movie. Who in China has never used a pirated version, let alone a 20 yuan game, and it is so well-made, could it be genuine!

"Brother Lin, is this really the case?" Ma Huateng couldn't help being anxious. Tencent X.com was developing rapidly. If the company's development was affected because of this "piracy door" incident, it would be too wronged for Ma Huateng. And the cooperation between him and Lin Feng was the most failed cooperation. If it is not done well, the entire Tencent X network will be devastated.

Lin Feng was naturally aware of Ma Huateng's worries.

"Okay, Chairman Ma, don't worry, I'll send you a file and you'll know. But you must delete it after reading it." Lin Feng smiled and emailed the agreement signed with MinhLe, the father of CS, to Ma Huateng.

"Okay, Lin Feng, it's really because of you that I've been worrying for nothing!" Ma Huateng was delighted after reading this. Although this agreement is shady, at least Lin Feng won't have any troubles, as long as the valve development team doesn't sue Lin Feng. Feng, Lin Feng will not have any legal responsibility, and Tencent.com will not be implicated in any way.

"Okay, I will find someone to post an article to refute the article about the shooter later." Ma Huateng calmed down, and his thoughts became more active, "I guess your competitors are targeting you for this 'Piracy Gate' incident. One action. I ordered the staff to check it just now, and the IP address of the first post should come from the internal IP of YiX. Humph, he wants to take this opportunity to tarnish your reputation and attack your Dingdang.com.”

When Lin Feng heard this, he felt sullen. Although shopping malls have entered the battlefield, it is really too shameless for a company as big as YiX.com to use such despicable means. But after thinking about it, it is normal for Yi X.com to help sellers to check their credit in later generations.

"Don't worry, Mr. Ma, if there is a chance, I will repay their 'gift' this time." Lin Feng smiled darkly.

"Haha, don't forget to inform me when the time comes. I am a Tencent website with more than 30 million registered members, and this time he even wants to fix my Tencent website, hum!" Ma Huateng snorted twice.

"By the way, Mr. Ma, I have something else I want to cooperate with you." Another idea suddenly appeared in Lin Feng's mind.

"Oh, let's hear it!" Ma Huateng was deeply impressed by Lin Feng's series of actions, and secretly guessed what kind of idea Lin Feng had this time, and how much profit it would bring to TengX.com.
