Rebirth: Dominate The World, Starting From The School Network

Chapter 223 Lu Yi Is So Talkative

A certain coffee shop.

Lu Yi met the four founders of Baoxue.

These four people resigned collectively last year due to disagreements with Weiwangdi, causing an uproar in the industry.

These four people are also the core creators of the "Diablo" series of games, so they are also called the "Diablo Big Four".

It is said.

After Blast Snow was acquired by Wi.net, they worked overnight to develop the blueprint for the "Diablo 3" project, preparing to make a big splash with the support of Wi.net.

But it's a pity.

Wineti actually completely rejected the "Diablo 3" project blueprint they submitted.

I believe that the next development direction of Explosive Snow should be towards goals such as home consoles and cross-border IP cooperation, rather than sticking to old PC games and re-creating old IPs.

So much so that in the previous life, "Diablo 3" had to wait until 2008 to be released, thus losing the best market opportunity.

But Lu Yi obviously won't let this happen again.

"Mr. Mike, Mr. Allen, nice to meet you." Lu Yi greeted with a smile.

Mike Mowaimi looked at Lu Yi in front of him and was also very surprised.

They have naturally heard of Lu Yi's name.

Also know the legendary story of Lu Yi.

Today, Future Technology’s products are loved by users all over the world.

Such as the facereddit website, and the recently launched twitter.

"Mr. Lu, I'm very happy to meet you. You are so young, but so successful, which is so enviable." Mike Mowaimi said with emotion.

Back then, a group of them founded Explosive Snow Company with the goal of becoming bigger and stronger in the gaming industry.

With "Warcraft", "StarCraft", and "Diablo", it emerged in the game market. However, due to the large number of issued shares, it was acquired by Vividi and eventually became the game research and development department of Vividi.

As a result, they failed to get strong support from Weiwangdi. In addition, the two 167 parties had different ideas. Four of their founders resigned. Later, more than 30 key members of Explosive Snow also left one after another.

Today's explosive snow basically exists in name only.

This makes Mike Mowaimi and the others very unhappy.

Lu Yi didn't say any more words, and went straight to the point, saying: "Mr. Mike, I am meeting you today because I want to invite you to return to Explosive Snow."

"Return to Explosive Snow?!"

Hearing this, Mike Morinmi and the four others were stunned.

Can you still go back?

Even if they could go back, it would be impossible for them to go back.

Because Baoxue, acquired by Vivendi, is no longer the Northern Baoxue it once was.

Today's Baoxue is just a money-making tool in Vivendi's hands and a soulless puppet.

Mike Mowaimi said bluntly: "Mr. Lu, I'm very sorry, it's impossible for us to go back to Baoxue."

"Since Bakuxue was acquired by Vivendi, the core of Bakuxue has changed. It is no longer the Bakuxue it once was."

"Weiwangdi and the others don't care at all about how to make a good game. All they want is to make money, make money, make money, as long as they can make money."

Obviously.

Mike Mowaimi and the others are very worried about Weiweidi.

"Weiwangdi really only wants to make money, but I don't." Lu Yi said with a smile.

Mike Mowaimi and the others looked stunned.

What's the meaning?

Lu Yi smiled and said: "Oh, I forgot to mention, I have already negotiated with Boluoer of Weiwangdi to acquire their game business for 500 million yuan."

As soon as these words came out, Mike Mowaimi's pupils shrank suddenly.

In other words, Yixue changed hands again?!

"So, this time I met with you, Mr. Mike, not to be a lobbyist for Weiwangdi, but to invite you to rejoin Explosive Snow, or Future Technology," Lu Yi said.

Mike Mowaimi and others were silent.

Although they were happy that Blast Snow was out of Weiweidi's clutches.

but.

Who knows whether Future Technology will be the next Weiwangdi?

"Thank you very much for Mr. Lu's invitation, but sorry, we have no plans to return to Baoxue." Mike Mowaimi refused.

"I can understand why you are so resistant." Lu Yi said with a smile, "You are afraid that I am like Weiwangdi, who does not really want to promote the development of the game industry, but crazily squeezes out the value of game companies and then makes money. Just leave with one stroke, I’m right.”

Mike Mowaimi watched Lu Yi silently.

This young man, who was much younger than him, had such a sharp mind that he immediately noticed what they were thinking.

indeed.

As Lu Yi said, who can guarantee that future technology and Weiwangdi will not be the same?

After experiencing the devastation of Weiwangdi, they do not believe that capital is based on feelings and conscience.

In the eyes of capital, money is the most conscientious thing.

Just like Vividi.

Are the acquisitions of Xueleshan and Explosive Snow to promote the development of the game industry?

They once naively thought it was.

But the results were brutal.

In the eyes of Weiweidi, there is only money and interests.

now.

Xueleshan has ceased to exist in name only, and Baoxue has also reached the edge of extinction.

Not speaking means acquiescence.

"To be honest, I am actually a hardcore gamer. My love for games is no less than yours. I even know more about games than most of you senior practitioners in the game industry because I truly love games." Lu Yi said.

Mike Mowaimi and the others stared at Lu Yi in astonishment.

It’s really a damn thing, I’m so damn crazy for trusting you!

Lu Yi didn't care whether they believed it or not, and continued: "I know that because of Weiwangdi, you are very resistant to capital.

"But our future technology is different from that of Vivid."

"I wonder if you have ever used any of Future Technology's products, such as facetwitter, WeChat or the reddit website?"

Mike Mowaimi and the others nodded.

These three products have been integrated into their daily lives.

Face learns social networking, Twitter's new blog product, WeChat is a better instant messaging software than ICQ and MSN. As for the reddit website, they also (ccff) often vent their emotions on it.

Future Technology's products have entered every aspect of their lives and are inseparable.

How could it be that I haven’t used it before?

"Since you have all used Future Technology's products, you should know why our products are favored by users."

"Whether it is Face, Twitter, or WeChat or Reddit, the consistent purpose of our products is based on user experience. This is the biggest premise.

"The same goes for games. If the user experience is not good, then naturally no users will pay for it. 11

"And you left Weiwangdi because you had irreconcilable differences with Weiwangdi in this regard."

“But it is consistent with our future technology, because we have always put user experience first.

"So, you don't have to worry about future technology being the next Weiwangdi."

"And I can tell you clearly that after acquiring Baoxue, I will not interfere in the specific operations and give you full autonomy. You only need to ensure that you develop works that users can love."

These words made the eyes of Mike, Mowaimi and the others shine brightly.

Not involved in the specific operations of Blast Snow?

Doesn't this mean giving them considerable autonomy?

In this way, they will have much less worries.

Mike Mowaimi asked: "Mr. Lu, what you just said made us very excited, but I still want to ask, why? If you delegate power so much, aren't you afraid that we will mess things up?"

Lu Yi smiled and said: "There is an old saying in the Dragon Kingdom, which is that you should not be suspicious of others. The "Warcraft", "StarCraft" and "Diablo" you have developed have proven your strength."

"And the principle I have always believed in is that professional things should be left to professional people."

"You are professionals in making games, but I am just a gamer. I may be able to provide you with some suggestions, but I cannot interfere in specific game design and development.

"Diablo 2 is a great game, and I'm also looking forward to the release of Diablo 3.

"I know that you started the blueprint project for "Diablo 3" in 1998. I really hope that "Diablo 3" can meet users as soon as possible."

"Mr. Mike, even if you reject my invitation this time, I still hope you will consider it.

"Blizzard is a great game company. I don't want it to decline or even collapse. Whether it's "Warcraft", "StarCraft", or "Diablo", I am a loyal player."

“I hope you can lead Explosive Snow to move forward and develop more and better games.

"..."

Mike Mowaimi and the others hesitated for a while.

Although Lu Yi's words were very beautiful, they were not sure whether Lu Yi was deceiving them.

Everyone can say nice things, but the most important thing is to look at actual actions.

What if Lu Yi is someone who says one thing and does another?

Even Lin Qingya next to him was not sure whether Lu Yi used nice words to trick Mike Mohuaimi and the others into coming back to work for him.

But it has to be said that as soon as Lu Yi opens his mouth, almost no one can resist him so far.

This tongue is really powerful.

Mike Mohuaimi and the four of them looked at each other. After a moment, Mike Mohuaimi said: "Mr. Lu, we are honored by your words. If you do not interfere with the operation of Baoxue, we can accept you. Invitation to return to Explosive Snow.

After all, he still couldn’t withstand Lu Yi’s ‘verbal offensive’.

When Lu Yi heard this, his mood didn't fluctuate much. He smiled lightly and said, "Don't worry, I don't care what game Baoxue wants to make, how to make it, or what the budget is, because I don't have that much energy."

The two sides communicated again for about 20 minutes before ending the meeting.

The four of them, Mike Mowaimi, have promised that they will return to Explosive Snow after Future Technology officially signs a contract with Weiwangdi.

at the same time.

During this period, they will also contact the 30 key people who also left last year.

To this.

Of course Lu Yi has no objection. .
