Chapter 466 "World of Warcraft" Sweeps China (Part [-])
"Mr. Li, don't worry, Nexon Co., Ltd. and Shanda Group can't win against us!" Ma Huateng smiled and said in a very firm tone.

Li Zetian was startled, this... really has a plan in mind! !
No wonder the Tencent company in the previous life plagiarized countless times, but I haven't seen any company that can do anything to Tencent...

"Well~~~ That's good!"

The lawsuit between Shanda Group and Tencent is already in full swing.

Plaintiffs: Nexon Corporation and Shanda Group.

Defendant: Tencent Technology (China) Company.

Court of first instance: No. [-] Intermediate People's Court of BJ City.

Nexon Co., Ltd. believes that QQ Tang plagiarized the BNB/BNB game in many aspects such as game form, content, art editing, etc., infringed the copyright of the plaintiff's various works in the game, such as text works, art works, and operation methods, and damaged Plaintiff's interests in China!
After a while, Ma Huateng called again and briefly introduced the results of the lawsuit.

Ma Huateng said with a smile: "Mr. Li, we have won the lawsuit. The court dismissed the plaintiff's lawsuit! After the trial, the court held that,"

"First, the community/channel that players can choose in the game may be player information, item names, etc., and the plaintiff does not have copyright to this content."

"Second, the art works in the game's actual combat screens. The screens of the two games are not similar on the whole. Among them, 'laughing to show victory and crying to show defeat' belongs to the category of thinking. copyright infringement."

"Thirdly, compared with BNB, QQ Tang has the same or similar character in terms of pronunciation, shape or meaning, except that they share a word 'Tang'. "Words and confuse the two."

666, Li Zetian couldn't help but click 100 likes, Tencent's ability to exploit loopholes is really awesome, but if it's in the United States, I'm afraid it will be a losing rhythm...

Nexon Co., Ltd. and Shanda Group were so angry that such obvious plagiarism was not plagiarism? ? ?Is there any law left?Is there any law left?
Ran and egg.

This lawsuit, or Tencent won.

Plagiarism is a technical activity, and Tencent is very good at it, so Nexon Co., Ltd. and Shanda Group are not wronged to lose!

Now that the lawsuit is over, Li Zetian will stop asking.

""World of Warcraft" has been released in China for a while, how is the response?" Li Zetian asked.

When it came to "World of Warcraft", Ma Huateng immediately became excited.

"Mr. Li, "World of Warcraft" is extremely popular. In addition, it is free, and there is a comprehensive promotion of Tencent and Glory Internet cafes. As a result, more than 80 people registered for the game account on the first day of the game's release! Ten In the next day, the number of registered players has exceeded 500 million, and the highest number of online players is as high as 125 million!"

"After the upgrade of the computers in the Glory chain Internet cafes, it seems that the grade has improved, so the Internet fee has also increased. It used to be 2 yuan an hour, but now it is 2.5 yuan an hour. But even so, the Glory Internet cafes are still full of people. The business is really good! Many people don't have a machine to play, so they just stand behind and watch others!"

"I believe that with word of mouth growing, more and more players will play World of Warcraft! In fact, if it weren't for the fact that the computers in many Internet cafes in China can't handle World of Warcraft, there should be more players now!! !"

Through Ma Huateng's words, Li Zetian has a clear understanding of the popularity of "World of Warcraft" in China.

"How many players are willing to pay for items?" Li Zetian asked.

"There are only 4 to 200 people at the moment, and the total sales are less than [-] million RMB. However, the game has only just begun. I believe that after they are completely fascinated by "World of Warcraft", more people will be willing to pay!"

Many online games survive for less than a year, but "World of Warcraft" is definitely a "longevity" game, and it was quite popular in 1!
The game world view of "World of Warcraft" is quite complete, with a huge story background, in which almost any element in real life is connected, and the charm of its game lies in its diversity and strong player interaction. The more I like it later.And "World of Warcraft" is almost naked, it can be called a masterpiece in the game world! !

Li Zetian has more understanding and confidence in "World of Warcraft" than Ma Huateng, so there is no need to rush to make money.

……

……

Early in the morning, several people came outside an Internet cafe in Shenzhen. They walked into the shop and asked loudly, "Boss, can your Internet cafe play World of Warcraft?"

The cashier lady at the front desk was embarrassed and didn't know what to say. Yes, the computer configuration in their Internet cafe is very poor. They are all old computers for several years. They must not be able to play "World of Warcraft"...

A young man said impatiently: "These computers are rubbish at first glance, and they definitely can't play "World of Warcraft". Brothers, let's go, let's go to the Glory chain Internet cafes! Go there early, maybe there are still machines!"

"Well, that's right, let's go then!"

In a blink of an eye, several people left the Internet cafe immediately.

The lady cashier at the internet cafe shook her head and said, "Hundreds of people have signed up to play "World of Warcraft" in the past few days, but the computer really can't handle it, and the business is wasted..."

Another cashier nodded and said: "Yeah, the business of Internet cafes has been bleak recently. They used to be full, but now they are less than half. I heard that "World of Warcraft" is super popular. Not only is the game fun, but the game screen is unparalleled , so you need a computer with high configuration to play it! In addition, this game is still a free game, and "Legend of Blood" and "World of Legends" are not as fun as "World of Warcraft", the key is that many players are upset. , "Legend of Blood" and "World of Legends" are point-card fee-paying games, so since the release of "World of Warcraft", the players of "Legend of Blood" and "World of Legends" have dropped sharply!"

"Yeah, free games are so classic and fun, who would play paid games!"

"In my opinion, we still recommend that the boss buy a batch of high-end computers, otherwise, how can this business continue!"

"Ah."

……

"World of Warcraft" is a big hit, those Internet cafes with garbage computer configurations, the business is really bleak!
The bosses of countless Internet cafes are impatient...

Computer orders from Lenovo and Mango Computer came in like snowflakes.

Fortunately, Li Zetian had called Lenovo and Mango Computer Company before, asking them to produce computers with all their strength, and even if they couldn't sell them temporarily, they could put them in the warehouse first.Now the supply is sufficient, as soon as the order comes, it can be shipped immediately!

From June to mid-July, Lenovo and Mango Computer sold a total of 55 computers, and sales in August and September are expected to continue to increase.
