20 years of restarting life

Chapter 2631 Zhao Changan needs reflection

Of course, Zhao Changan also understood the meaning of Woyat's words, as well as their inner thoughts and gloomy anger at this time.

This is a bit like Li Xiuying’s unwilling struggle and cry when One Nano forcibly invested in Webzen the year before.

'Down with you black-hearted capital, down with Zhao Changan! Down with you ignorant and greedy idiots! '

In fact, even today, for the past two years, Ynanomi has been providing money and not interfering with Li Xiuying and Webzen, which she is responsible for. However, this does not change the fact.

At that time, Li Xiuying had money, games, and a team, so she refused the investment from Yinnan, a barbarian. However, Zhao Changan shamelessly used Jin Shengyu's power to force and threaten Li Xiuying to agree to Ynami's capital injection and holding.

As a result, through continuous capital injections, One Nano holds 88.1% of Webzen's shares, including Zhuo Zi's, Li Xiuying's shares have been reduced to 7.5%, Jin Nanzhou's 1.4%, and Cao Jirong's 3%.

It was like Zhao Changan took advantage of Hao and took away their company and their brainchild.

There is an iron law in this world that is difficult to break, that is, there is a high probability that dragon slayers will turn into evil dragons.

Just as Zhao Changan hated Qi Peng's ambitions for Jurassic back then, what he did in plundering Webzen was actually far more shameless, shameless and dishonorable than Qi Peng.

"He held a golden compass in his hand, with one foot as the center of the circle and the other drawing toward the endless chaos, confusion and darkness, - and said, this is your domain, this is your home."

The Creator gave the scope and boundaries, and then the coward inside said, "Heaven moves vigorously, and a gentleman should constantly strive for self-improvement." The essence of this constant self-improvement is "natural selection, survival of the fittest!" '

During the initial stage of One Nano, Zhao Changan also strictly followed the rules of the jungle.

-

For Li Xiuying and Woyat, these are also elites who left the former Blizzard team. The difference is that Li Xiuying was forced to get married by her family, and then her family withdrew her documents and forced her not to go abroad again. If she goes abroad again, she will be forty years old. Being an old girl, I had no choice but to go it alone.

But Voyat and the others gave up what they had in Blizzard purely for their ideals.

Just like ArenaNet in Zhao Changan's previous life, when NCsoft invested and controlled it, "Guild Wars" had already completed the core engine of the game and the structure of the game. All that was needed was to fill it with element modules.

Even so, although "Guild Wars" is mainly European and American style, there are still some shadows of Asian games in it.

After that, "Guild Wars" received a lot of praise and gained a large number of users, and it once topped the list of most popular games in North America.

Then ArenaNet developed "Guild Wars 2". NCsoft itself was not directly involved in ArenaNet's game production, giving "Guild Wars 2" a considerable degree of autonomy.

But the influence of Asian games is even more profound. Even at the 2010 Cologne Game Show in Germany, it won the Best Online Game Award at the Game Show in one fell swoop, but it did not prevent ArenaNe from becoming silent and mediocre.

Until ArenaNet laid off employees and restructured in 2019, it no longer developed new games.

In other words, ArenaNet's "Guild Wars" was the pinnacle of ArenaNet from the beginning, and then people like Woatt, Brian, and Strion, who were full of ideals at the time, continued to rest on this laurels for more than ten years until they grew old and retired.

On the other hand, Blizzard, which was criticized by Woatt and others, has been working steadily for ten years without taking radical risks and expansion, and it is still the world's top game leader twenty years later.

At noon, Zhao Changan hosted a banquet for all the friends who participated in the public beta ceremony. In addition to the employees of Yinan Mir Bay New Audio and Video, more than a dozen people from ArenaNet, there are also Zeng Xianyang and his wife and some Chinese friends, former colleagues of Zeng Hao and Qin Xiaolu’s friends.

What surprised Zhao Changan was that Zhang Xiaowei also arrived at some unknown time, and his companion was a plump and beautiful old aunt in her early forties.

There is no need to guess who Zhao Changan is.

When the toast arrived at the table, Zhang Yingqin stood up with a full glass of Wuliangye, looked at Zhao Changan gently and said with a smile: "Thanks to Mr. Zhao, I can drink it in a foreign country. Come to our Wuliangye, you are the pride of our mountain city."

I have to say that Zhang Yingqin's figure in the cheongsam is really great. She is the kind of woman who is fleshy but not fat, and is round and round but has good fat and thin parts.

In fact, in this banquet hall, Zhang Yingqin, who is in her early forties, is more attractive than her younger and more beautiful daughter, especially the attention of old men.

This is also the difference between Zhang Yingqin and Tang Li. Tang Li has a slender figure of 1.66 meters, which is very similar to that of a Chinese woman, while Zhang Yingqin is nearly 1.7 meters tall, and Tang Li is very thin, although she is also thin and There is flesh, but Zhang Yingqin, who has flesh but does not look fat, is a completely opposite contrast.

No wonder Tao Longrong wanted both. If Zhao Changan were to stand in Tao Longrong's position, he would definitely be the same.

Even more shamelessly, he fantasizes about whether they can become sisters so that they can enjoy the blessings and happiness together and do things together.

Zhang Yingqin's words were such that Zhao Changan didn't know what to say. He couldn't reach out and hit the smiling person.

He could only smile and signal to her and Zhang Xiaowei, who also stood up and held up a wine glass. After touching it twice, Zhao Changan ordered the wine on his lips, while Zhang Yingqin and her daughter drank full.

After lunch, Zhao Changan, Zeng Hao, and Qin Xiaolu stood at the door of the hotel to see off the guests. Whether they were guests or employees of the company, everyone had a small exquisite gift. The value was not exaggerated, but it was no less than a hundred dollars.

While talking to Zhang Yingqin and her daughter, Zhang Xiaowei suddenly asked: "I don't know when Mr. Zhao will leave Los Angeles?"

"We will stay here for a day or two, or more, the specific time is not yet certain."

New Audiovisual Company currently holds 3.68% of BlackBerry's shares. This will definitely be merged into the Toronto branch by then, and Zhou Kexin will be required to assist in completing the legal and procedural processes.

Zhao Changan also wanted to see the data of Miracle Mu in the first two days of the North American public beta.

Of course, these are not the most important. The most important thing is what Woyat said this morning after trying Miracle Mu.

'——Maintaining the vision and philosophy of the game when I first joined Blizzard,——When we founded ArenaNet, we never did it to make money. '

To be honest, this passage touched Zhao Changan so much that he still can't let it go.

Zhao Changan needs to think carefully, and at the same time, maybe reflect on the strong style of himself and Yinnan.

When a company starts up, in order to grow rapidly, it often has a strong blood-seeking characteristic, because only by desperately seeking and sucking blood at all costs can the company ensure that it can survive and grow rapidly.

However, once this company has passed the most dangerous initial stage, shouldn't it change its style from being as sharp as a knife, hurting whoever touches it, to becoming gentler and mellower?

Just like those unkind landlords in the feudal times, once they became rich and powerful, they began to be "good people".
