Chapter 424 If I have 1000 million, I can buy a house...

Wemade Entertainment spent millions of dollars to promote "Legend". It never thought that this game is not popular with European and American players at all, and now it has suffered a heavy loss.

However, cheating appeared in China again, causing many Chinese players to leave with hatred.

On December 12th, something happened that made Shanda and Wemade Entertainment so angry that they vomited blood. "Private servers" actually appeared on the Internet.

I don't know when, the "Legend" server program was leaked, and soon someone used it to develop "private servers".

As for what is the private server?A private server is a network server set up after illegally obtaining a server-side installation program without the authorization of the copyright owner.

Private servers are very simple. Many Internet cafes can set up private servers in the intranet to charge fees. This has nothing to do with Shanda.

The private server can be set according to your own requirements, the equipment explosion rate can be set to be ridiculously high, and the attack power can kill the final boss with one knife.Usually, it takes a few hundred yuan to play on the official official server, but in the private server, you may be an advanced player as soon as you go online. In addition, the consumption cost of the private server is much cheaper than the genuine one, or even free. , so it is liked by many players.

As long as the first private server appears on the Internet, the second and third private servers will appear next...Private servers are like scourges, which cannot be stopped.Especially in the current Chinese environment, even if you go to the court to sue them, it is useless, and the court will not accept any complaints after you have caused losses on your private server.

At the end of 2001, due to the strong harassment of private servers and cheats, the number of online players of "Legend" dropped sharply, from hundreds of thousands of online players before to less than 10, and will continue to drop in the future until the game is abolished. It has become a "ghost town" without people!
……

Los Angeles, Beverly Hills.

It was cold and windy outside the house, the snow was flying heavily, and the earth was covered in silver.

In front of the European-style fireplace in the villa, an extremely expensive Persian carpet was spread on the floor, and Li Zetian sat on the floor, reading a book while warming the fire.During this Christmas period, there are no travel plans, and staying at home is pretty good.

Li Zetian was very happy that "Legend" was about to collapse.

Frankly speaking, the influence of "Legend" is too great, which seriously impacted the position of Flamingo Company in the Chinese game market.

Seeing that Shanda introduced Korean games and made so much money, other companies followed suit. On the one hand, this increased the pressure on Flamingo, and on the other hand, it made Korean game developers grow stronger.

Therefore, it must be suppressed!

"Dad, what book are you reading?!" Leisurely walked up, holding Li Zetian's arm, and asked curiously.Now, Xiao Youran has grown up, 170cm tall, slim, fair-skinned and beautiful. She has completely inherited Yu Jingqiu's beauty, and she has the beauty of a country and a city.Now studying at Harvard University.

Li Zetian smiled and said, "An online novel has been published now. It's very interesting. The title of the book is "The First Intimate Contact."

"Internet novels..." Youran said indifferently, obviously she is not interested in online novels.

Li Zetian said with a smile: "This novel is very powerful. The language is witty, the story is touching, and it is popular on the Chinese Internet. It is the first best-selling novel on the Internet. Well, it can be said that "The First Intimate Contact" opened the Internet novel. The first of its kind!"

Li Youran was shocked after hearing this, and couldn't help being a little interested in "The First Intimate Contact".Then I went back to my room, opened my notebook, and searched for "The First Close Contact" on the Internet.

"The protagonist ruffian Cai? What name did you choose? It doesn't sound good at all~"

Muttering leisurely, she continued to read, unknowingly attracted by the stories in the novel, and she couldn't help but read out some interesting sentences: "If I have 1000 million, I can buy a house .Do I have 1000 million? No. So I still don’t have a house. If I have wings, I can fly. Do I have wings? No. So I can’t fly either. Do not extinguish the flame of my love for you. Is it possible to pour out all the water in the Pacific Ocean? No. So I do not love you."

"I danced softly among the crowd.

You cast a strange look in your eyes.

Whether you are surprised or appreciative.

Didn't mess up my dance steps.

Because it's not your gaze that makes me soar.

But my young heart. "

Li Youran was so obsessed with reading and forgetting to eat and sleep, the servant couldn't help her when she was told to eat dinner, until Yu Jingqiu came out in person.

Li Youran didn't have the heart to eat dinner, her mind was on the book.After hastily eating dinner, Li Youran immediately went back to the room and continued to read.At first, I was very happy to see ruffian Cai and Qingwu Feiyang start dating, but after seeing that Qingwu Feiyang left without saying goodbye and passed away due to illness, Li Youran immediately burst into tears.

"What did you write, it was so good before, why did you write the heroine to death in the end, it's so cruel~~" You Ran complained while wiping her tears.

Early the next morning, Li Youran approached Li Zetian "aggressively" and said, "Dad, I'm in a bad mood now!!"

"What's the matter, baby girl?" Li Zetian asked in surprise.

"Hmph, what's the matter, what novels did you recommend to me? I cried all night!" Li Youran complained, puffing her cheeks.

Li Zetian shook his head, speechless, gently stroked her long hair, and comforted her: "Okay, good girl, dad is wrong, okay? Come, come, sit down and have breakfast first." Li Zetian pulled out a chair for her to sit down, put a fried dough stick on the plate, and poured another bowl of rice porridge for her.

After reassuring his daughter, Li Zetian picked up the newspaper and read the news as usual. This habit has been developed for a long time.

Due to the emergence of "Legend" and Shanda Company, Li Zetian suddenly thought of Qidian website and online novels. Li Zetian read the book "The First Intimate Contact" once in his previous life, and he was so moved in his memory. This is a rare and good book, so he specially asked someone to mail a copy of "The First Intimate Contact" come over.Of course, it can also be read on the computer, but Li Zetian prefers to read with paper books.

The heavy snow outside the house has stopped, and four or five servants are cleaning the snow on the ground.After reading the newspaper, Li Zetian went outside to blow the cold wind.

"Many fiction websites have appeared in China, such as Huanjianshumeng, Longkong, Under the Banyan Tree, etc., but it seems that the most famous Qidian website in the previous life has not yet been established..."

Even though Li Zetian doesn't read many online novels, he still knows the name of Qidian Chinese.com.The novel website platform is a very important IP incubator, and it should be in your own hands!
