Chapter 432

Given the relationship between Qin Shaoyan and Chen Peng, the other party will not shirk responsibility or make excuses when something needs to be done, so you can be more straightforward in your words.

When Chen Peng said that things were not that simple, Qin Shaoyan understood that it was not something that could be accomplished by just a few companies and copyright agencies in their gaming industry.

"In 2003, we conducted a joint operation with the Ministry of Information Industry, the State Administration for Industry and Commerce, the National Copyright Administration, the National Office for Combating Pornography and Illegal Publications, and the Ministry of Public Security." Chen Peng said slowly, "In March 04, the five departments held a special meeting in Shanghai to carry out in-depth crackdowns on 'private servers' and 'plug-ins'."

As Chen Peng spoke, he took out a document and handed it to Qin Shaoyan, motioning him to take a look.

Qin Shaoyan knew that the meeting was attended not only by these five departments, but also by relevant departments from ten provinces and cities including Beijing and Shanghai.

At that time, the gaming industry was plagued by private servers and plug-ins, and the losses of the companies worst affected amounted to hundreds of millions.

Qin Shaoyan picked up the document and took a few glances at it, and found that it was the minutes of the meeting.

It was pointed out at the conference that illegal activities such as "private servers" and "plug-ins" rely on high intelligence and high technology, causing huge economic losses to the legitimate operators of online games, and seriously undermining the nation's spirit of innovation.

The meeting determined the key targets for the next stage of special governance work, established a joint investigation and punishment mechanism among relevant departments, and formulated specific investigation and punishment methods.

The central task should focus on handling major cases, severely crack down on illegal activities of "private servers" and "plug-ins" in accordance with the law, shut down a number of "private servers" and "plug-in" websites, hold the lawbreakers accountable, and impose administrative penalties on those who violate administrative regulations.

Those who violate the criminal law will be transferred to judicial organs for conviction. Special governance work will be promoted on a larger scale to protect the healthy development environment of my country's online game publishing industry.

Chen Peng was certainly not speaking in official language. He said seriously, "The last time we launched a transformation campaign and crackdown, it was a big deal and the results were great, but this campaign-style governance only treats the symptoms and not the root cause."

"And it's almost impossible to carry out such a multi-departmental joint operation again in a short period of time." Chen Peng said solemnly, "It's difficult for us to carry out an effective strike relying on just a few departments."

"The illegal activities of using cheats and private servers are different from the traditional gray and black industries. They are highly technical."

"They usually conduct illegal activities through the Internet. We can't even find them, so there's no way we can crack down on them."

"As for locating the other party through the network, we do not have this capability either."

"After all, this is not a case with huge losses or severe impact."

Qin Shaoyan nodded, "I understand what you said, Brother Chen."

Chen Peng thought about it and said, "The actual support that the Press and Publication Administration can provide is limited."

What this means is that the copyright agency can basically only provide spiritual support.

"Just show your support." Qin Shaoyan didn't want too much, as long as he could hold the greater good in his hands.

Chen Peng sighed and suddenly said, "This kind of thing requires the cooperation of the police. If you have any connections in this area, you can give it a try."

Qin Shaoyan smiled and said nothing more, "Thank you, Brother Chen."

……

After returning to the campus network, Zhang Pingyi immediately rushed over and asked with concern: "How is it? Is there any good news?"

"Brother Chen said that he can only provide any support other than help." Qin Shaoyan's tone was very calm.

But Zhang Pingyi was not calm, his face was full of surprise, "What do you mean? They don't care?"

"You can't just ignore it. Brother Chen is really powerless, and the work the Copyright Administration can do is relatively limited." Qin Shaoyan didn't care. "It would be great if they could issue a document to express their support."

Zhang Pingyi frowned, "What should we do? Are we helpless against cheats?"

"Not really." Qin Shaoyan said casually, "Brother Chen still gave me some advice."

"What suggestions did he give?" Zhang Pingyi's eyes lit up and he asked quickly.

"Depend on connections." Qin Shaoyan said slowly, "If you have connections, ask the police department to cooperate, and it will be convenient to crack down on them."

"..." Zhang Pingyi was speechless, "It's the same as not saying anything."

"Now the question is, do you have a connection?"

"You can find connections." Qin Shaoyan smiled slightly, "Everything depends on human effort."

"It's the same as if I didn't say anything." Zhang Pingyi was discouraged. He slumped down on the sofa and sighed repeatedly.

"However, Brother Chen's words reminded me." Qin Shaoyan seemed to be thinking about something. "He said that unless the loss is huge or the impact is bad."

"I'm afraid we don't meet the criteria of huge losses."

"But this has a bad influence, so we can do something about it."

As he spoke, Qin Shaoyan looked at Zhang Pingyi.

Zhang Pingyi felt Qin Shaoyan's gaze, and he sat up straight with a start, looking at Qin Shaoyan in doubt, "What are you going to do?"

"I'm thinking about a question. What is considered a bad influence?" Qin Shaoyan said as he pondered. "The campus network is also a top website in the second tier of the domestic Internet. It will be listed on the US stock market soon."

"But when the interests of a company of this size are violated, it does not reach the standard of having a bad impact."

"Master Zhang, you don't have any important projects on hand recently, right?"

Zhang Pingyi said vigilantly, "There are many, and they are all very important."

"I think we can put it aside for now, while the game hasn't been launched for public beta." Qin Shaoyan said with a smile, "You've been very tired recently, do you want to travel to the United States to relax?"

"..." Zhang Pingyi felt increasingly uneasy, "What on earth are you going to do?!"

"The campus network is the result of our hard work, right?" Qin Shaoyan looked at Zhang Pingyi sincerely, "You don't want it to fail to be successfully listed, do you?"

"Of course." Zhang Pingyi frowned, "But, you..."

Qin Shaoyan interrupted him directly, "What if someone wants to harm the interests of the campus network? Of course, we have to fight back fiercely, right?"

"Yes," Zhang Pingyi hesitated, "but..."

"No buts. We built the campus network bit by bit in the Internet cafe. It was very hard." Qin Shaoyan's eyes were full of tears. "Do you still remember the difficult situation we faced with our competitors at that time?"

"A difficult situation, is there?" Zhang Pingyi looked puzzled.

He really didn't remember any threat from the campus network's competitors.

"Of course I did. I put a lot of thought into it at that time." Qin Shaoyan waved his hand, "But that's not important. Don't worry about the details."

"The campus network is the product of everyone's hard work. We should protect it like we would protect our own children!"

"Yeah." Zhang Pingyi nodded.

"Now I have an important task for you." Qin Shaoyan said seriously, "Whether the online game project operated by the campus network can be successful or not depends entirely on you."

"No." Zhang Pingyi was a little uneasy. "What are you going to do?"

"You go to the United States first, and I'll tell you what to do." Qin Shaoyan patted Zhang Pingyi's shoulder, "I'll have someone book a plane ticket for you right away, and someone in Silicon Valley will help you."

"Oh, OK." Zhang Pingyi nodded, "I'll leave sometime."

"Maybe in two days." Qin Shaoyan thought for a while, "We should be able to set off."

"Why two days?" Zhang Pingyi was puzzled. "You were in a hurry to get me to leave just now, but now you are not in a hurry anymore?" "The key is that there is no point in being in a hurry." Qin Shaoyan said helplessly, "It will take time for Brother Xiong to get a passport."

"Brother Xiong?" Zhang Pingyi was startled. "Which Brother Xiong?"

"Xiong Jiajia, my college classmate, you have met him." Qin Shaoyan said casually, "He will go with you when the time comes, and he will help you."

"Hmm?" Zhang Pingyi instinctively felt that something seemed to be wrong.

Why should an outsider be involved in campus network affairs?

If you say he was a military supervisor, that doesn't make sense.

Zhang Pingyi is the vice president of the campus network and one of the shareholders. No matter how worried he is, he would not send a supervisor over.

If you don't trust him, you won't send him to do the job.

But since Qin Shaoyan didn't say anything, Zhang Pingyi didn't ask too much. He began to think about who to bring with him to the United States and what to prepare.

After sending Zhang Pingyi away, Qin Shaoyan picked up his phone, found Davis's number and called him.

"Good evening, Davis."

"Oh, Happy New Year, John." There was a noisy voice coming from Davis' phone. It seemed that there was some party going on and the other party seemed very excited.

"Have you rested?" Qin Shaoyan asked tentatively.

"No, nothing. It's just a company team building." Davis quickly found a quiet room and took a few sips of a cup of coffee. "What do you want to talk to me about?"

"Davis, do you know anyone from the FBI?" Qin Shaoyan asked solemnly.

"FBI?" Davis was very surprised. "Why are you asking this? What happened?"

"I need some help from the FBI." Qin Shaoyan raised his voice again and said solemnly, "This is very important, Davis. It is related to Facebook's subsequent strategy."

"You know, Bill Gates is very serious about Facebook."

"I have a great plan to implement, and will prioritize cooperation with Microsoft, but I'm facing a small difficulty now."

"So, do you know anyone in the FBI?"

Davis thought about it and said, "It's possible."

"That's good." Qin Shaoyan smiled, "Very good."

Davis had never known anyone from the FBI before, nor had he ever dealt with the FBI.

But then was the past, and now is the present.

Davis is already a billionaire with a net worth of over 100 million yuan, and he is also a senior executive in Microsoft. With these two identities, it is easy for him to make friends with some people in law enforcement departments.

Besides, what Qin Shaoyan asked was not that difficult, so Davis agreed readily.

……

During the Lantern Festival, the flavor of the Spring Festival has not completely dissipated, and the work efficiency of the campus network has suddenly increased.

Qin Shaoyan sat in the president's office of the campus network and held a meeting with several senior executives for the entire afternoon. He was so tired that he felt dizzy.

But no one complained of being tired, because today's meeting was to discuss a series of business activities after the public beta of "Warring States OL".

This is related to the game's revenue, which is real money, and no one dares to be careless.

Qin Shaoyan took a pen and listed one item after another on the whiteboard, and then explained the business logic behind them one by one.

Everyone in the Operations Department was concentrating and taking notes carefully to understand the spirit of what President Qin said.

But Qin Shaoyan talked about too many things, and many of the business activities were dazzling. It was also their first time to be exposed to them, so it was inevitable that they found it difficult to listen.

When he was speaking excitedly, the secretary Xiao Chen carefully pushed open the office door and looked inside.

Qin Shaoyan stopped teaching and asked seriously, "What's the matter?"

Secretary Xiao Chen subconsciously shrank his head, looked at the other people in the office, then looked at Qin Shaoyan, and stammered, "Boss Qin, someone is here to see you."

Qin Shaoyan was stunned for two seconds before he reacted and said to the others in the office, "It's getting late. You should go back and celebrate the festival first. We'll continue tomorrow."

The executives breathed a sigh of relief and stood up to leave.

After everyone left, Qin Shaoyan looked at his secretary Xiao Chen, "Where are they?"

Before he finished speaking, Mingyue poked her head out of the door, holding a lunch box in both hands, and asked cautiously, "Are you done?"

"Oh, yes, we're done." Qin Shaoyan immediately stood up and walked out, pulling Mingyue into the office.

Secretary Xiao Chen quickly retreated and closed the office door.

"Why are you here?" Qin Shaoyan was a little surprised. His hands were a little cold when he touched Mingyue, and his face was slightly red from the cold.

"Take the subway or bus." Mingyue put the lunch box on the table and unscrewed the lid. There was still steam coming out of it. "Huh, luckily, the food is not cold yet."

"Today is the Lantern Festival, and I just wanted to come and see you."

“Here, this is the dish I made myself.”

Mingyue said as she pushed the lunch box in front of Qin Shaoyan.

Smelling the aroma of the food, Qin Shaoyan also felt very hungry. He pinched a piece of meat with his fingers and put it in his mouth, "Not bad, not bad, very delicious."

"Use chopsticks, be careful of the heat." Mingyue took out the chopsticks and handed them to Qin Shaoyan.
Qin Shaoyan did not take the chopsticks. Instead, he grabbed Mingyue's hand, covered her small hand with his own, and asked with a smile, "Are you cold?"

"It's okay." Mingyue's ears turned red and her eyes wandered, "Don't keep looking at me, eat."

"I won't be hungry anymore just looking at you." Qin Shaoyan held Mingyue's little hand tightly.

Mingyue rolled her eyes at him and said, "Xiao Chen told me that you have been busy recently and haven't been home for a few days. You haven't eaten well. Hurry up and eat the meal I made."

"Then can you feed me?" Qin Shaoyan looked at Mingyue with a smile.

"Hateful." Mingyue glared at him in annoyance, but still sat down obediently and picked up a piece of meat with chopsticks, "Come on, open your mouth."

"Don't use chopsticks, can you use your mouth?" Qin Shaoyan became more and more demanding.

"Get lost!" Mingyue patted Qin Shaoyan, "Do you want to eat or not? If not, I'm leaving."

"Okay, okay." Qin Shaoyan could only sit obediently on the chair and wait for the other party to feed him.

The atmosphere in the office gradually became ambiguous, and Mingyue fed the food into Qin Shaoyan's mouth one by one.

At this time, the office door was knocked again.
