Build a gaming empire from scratch

At the beginning, Lin You only realized that the game time was on the eve of the armistice, but he didn't realize where [Manjiaci Country·Sanbao Mountain] was.

After watching the content of the trailer and searching the map, I realized belatedly: there is actually the Strait of Malacca!

Sanbao Mountain is also the place where Zheng He camped and rested on his voyages to the West.

Historically, the development of Malacca, that is, the country of Mankasas, was driven by the garrison and commercial activities of the Ming Dynasty.

According to historical records, thousands of boats gathered in the Strait of Malacca at that time, and the shops were booming and bustling!
It was only later that the sea ban policy of the Ming Dynasty led to the continuous weakening of the control here, so that it was almost completely lost.

But even so, when the long war entered the mid-term, the changed-looking Daxia struggled to extinguish the flames of war in the local area, and pushed the front all the way here, and had already established an independent country. Still without hesitation, he returned to the embrace of his mother country—as a vassal state.

Since the advent of the age of great voyages, around the Strait of Malacca, various forces have been fighting here.

The Dutch, the Portuguese, and the British came on stage one after another, and the flames of war never completely subsided.

Because everyone knows: Whoever controls Malacca is tantamount to controlling the entire Southeast Asia.

Since the opening of the waterway in the fourth century AD, for more than 1000 years since then, ships for maritime trade between the East and the West have passed through here, making this strait an undoubted maritime throat.

So the flames of war here have been burning until the last moment before the full truce!
Flying Fox's "The Last Moment" took place against this background.

And it is a rare dual protagonist mode——

A protagonist longs for the end of the war and to return to his hometown to see his relatives as soon as possible.

The other is a soldier of the Manga Assassins, a descendant of the survivors. Because of the betrayal, the entire team was almost wiped out.

As the last survivor, driven by the fire of revenge, he will never accept the second ending except blood for blood.

Just when the former protagonist received a letter from his hometown and the latter soldier got clues about the enemy, the signing of the armistice agreement also came to an end...

The story of the trailer came to an abrupt end here.

Want to know the follow-up story?
Waiting for the game to be released on Friday, buy it and play it yourself!
A classic tantalizing device.

However, the super high quality of the trailer, the characters, the environment, the atmosphere, and the battle are all done with a strong sense of substitution, which successfully aroused the curiosity of the players.

The top quality, coupled with the powerful emotional cards, made Flying Fox more popular than the NetDragon DLC publicity in one fell swoop.

There was no two in the limelight for a while.

Naturally, Lin You was also aroused with curiosity, and planned to buy it and play with it at that time.

Joining in the fun and watching the reactions of netizens for a while, Lin You checked the time, and instead of going back to help with "Battlefield", he turned to [Virtual Chang'an] to find Xu Chun.

Recently, Lin You is not limited to cold weapon confrontation with Xu Chun, other masters have also joined in, allowing Lin You to experience the effects of confrontation with different weapons.

He still keeps losing miserably, and he feels like he hasn't made any progress.

But whether it is Xu Chun or other masters, they all say that he "has made rapid progress".

Lin You couldn't be sure whether this group of people really thought that he was making rapid progress, that he was a martial arts prodigy, or that they had unified their caliber in private and united to fool his poor boss.

He could only follow Xu Chun's arrangement and do what he was asked to do.

I just hope to finish this training program soon.

Next, everything is developing in an orderly manner.

The game between [King of Cards] and [Sparrow God] is in full swing.

With the support of these two large-scale competitions, the average age of Yunmeng users has abruptly increased by two years.

This is just the beginning of the audition campaign. When it continues to expand and form a regular event, the average age of players will increase, which is almost an inevitable trend.

In addition, a group of brand new "card playing anchors" have also emerged.

There are young people like Chen Jin, overseas cross-border professional players, and old men in their 50s and [-]s who speak dialect. It can be said that a hundred flowers bloom.

The Yunmeng live broadcast platform in [Trial Operation] also took advantage of the trend to expand the number of anchors, and expanded to 1000 in one go.

It also signed seven or eight newly emerging "card playing anchors".

By this time, Luo Tian's live broadcast team had already begun to see scale, and could fully handle the operation of the live broadcast platform.

Lin You also provided him with a batch of robot super tubes, which further relieved their pressure.

Luotian plans to end the [trial operation] on Friday, fully open the entry, and officially launch the Yunmeng live broadcast platform to the market.

Otherwise, looking at the continuous explosion of enthusiasm, but not being able to turn into revenue, Luo Tian was really heartbroken.

Lin You has always been unsuspecting in employing people, and believes in leaving professional matters to professional people. Naturally, he has no objection and nods in agreement.

Qiao Nanyu, Yunmeng's big housekeeper, also successfully negotiated a new office building.

——Increase the price by a full [-]% on the basis of the market price, and won this office building.

Before the process is over, a new round of large-scale recruitment has already begun.

And focus on recruiting people with expertise in "surveying and mapping", "aerial surveying", "urban construction planning", etc., and strive to quickly form a [virtual urban construction] team.

The production of [Virtual Xiajing] required a lot of drone aerial surveys and [-]D modeling.

In this regard, Yunmeng already has a fairly mature technical reserve, and in the [Ancient Architecture Records and Preservation Foundation], there are a lot of practical use of this technology.

It’s just that many ancient buildings are not in good condition, tilted, partially collapsed, faded, decayed, rebuilt later, and repaired at a low level...Because of insufficient funds in various places, various situations have appeared.

Therefore, only aerial survey and modeling are not enough. Experts must participate in the follow-up to correct and restore the virtual ancient buildings reconstructed by modeling.

This aspect not only requires sufficient professional knowledge, but also requires a considerable amount of energy and time.

But when this technology is used in Xia Jing, there are not so many problems.

Xiajing is an international metropolis, how can there be any dilapidated buildings?

Just scan the drone, reshape the virtual world directly, and then build building blocks according to your own needs. There is no need for fine repair and adjustment, and the construction efficiency is far higher than that of ancient buildings.

As for the inevitable exposure of merchants and brands?

It's easy!
After the city is built, a team is selected from the marketing department and directly asked them for money.

Those who are willing to advertise will pay, and those who are not willing to pay will be replaced by a company that is willing to pay. These are all small problems.

Anyway, it is not a completely one-to-one city, and a large number of non-distinctive buildings have to be deleted.

The negotiation team led by Zhong Chang also completed preliminary negotiations with Australian and Russian cooperative companies on Thursday night.

Because Yunmeng has an irreplaceable core advantage, it is undoubtedly in an advantageous position in the negotiation.

Even though the partners in this negotiation are already outside the influence of Daxia - Australia belongs to the European cultural circle, and Russia actually belongs to the European cultural circle.

It's just that these two countries are not closely connected with the core European countries due to cultural and geographical factors, so they are often in a swinging state.

None of these off-site factors affected the cooperation negotiations.

If you have to talk about the difference, the cooperative company on the Russian side is more straightforward——

You don't want to come to build a factory?
Then don't come if you don't come!
Do you need a server center?

It's easy to talk, it's all ready for you.

The Australian cooperative company has a little extra ambition——

Come build a factory!We have complete industrial facilities, a perfect market, and first-class investment and business conditions. As long as you come here, I will open up other links for you.

I can still communicate with the upper echelons and give you tax cuts and subsidies!
But no matter what they said, Yunmeng's response was just two words: "No."

The factory couldn’t do it, so they started to pay attention to the server again: "The server is so troublesome, use a cloud server! I can help you matchmaking, which saves trouble and offers a good price. Once the agreement is signed, you can turn around and start selling hosts to make money without delay. !"

Unfortunately, Zhong Chang's reply was still the same: "No."

Yunmeng was not short of money, so of course he had to hold the server and data in his own hands.

After arguing like this for two days, the other party still held his nose and accepted Yunmeng's conditions.

The technicians have already set off and went to Moscow and Sydney respectively to check the server centers prepared by the partners in advance. If there is no problem, they will pay directly to buy them.

——Yes, in Australia, the server was chosen in Sydney, not the capital Canberra.

The key is to consider the population. Compared with the 40 population of the capital Canberra, Sydney's population of 500 million is completely crushing.

After all, "political center" has no meaning to Yunmeng, and "population center" is the key value.

At the same time, these two countries have a more critical value - they will become an important stepping stone for Yunmeng to formally enter the European sphere of influence.

Especially in Russia, when the server is completed and opened, the mirage hosts in European countries will be able to access it. Although there will still be a delay, compared to before, it must be greatly improved!

Especially in a fully connected and unblocked network environment, the pace is relatively slow, and games that don't require too much intense confrontation can be played smoothly.

For European users, this is still a huge experience optimization.

According to Xiaomeng's statistics, the number of mirage hosts activated in European countries has already exceeded 80!
This is the accumulated users even when it is difficult to log in.

So once the server environment improves, this number will undoubtedly increase rapidly!
After months of hard work for European players, spring is finally coming!
By the way, Xiaomeng finally got a perfect springboard, and was able to enter the Internet of European countries without any hindrance, adding a place to eat melons.

Of course, eating melons is secondary. The key is to provide players with a better gaming experience. I believe they will understand and even welcome it.

After all, who wouldn't like Xiaomeng!
