Meanwhile, in the conference room at the headquarters of the Jie De Technology Company.
The eyes of the company's higher-ups were focused on the data graph displayed on the screen.
Looking at the increasing number of return orders, their faces darkened. The severity of the situation was far beyond their imagination.
At this stage, the number of unsubscriptions had reached more than four million. According to the collected data, basically all the problems were due to the incompatibility of the game, Battle Online.
They did not expect that the sanctions against Battle Online would harm them instead.
However, when they realized the problem and took the initiative to unblock it, they found out that the game was not compatible with the gaming chamber this time.
The gaming chamber had just been released. If they did not stabilize the market, when the Black Sea Corporation's gaming chamber was officially released, their advantage would be gone.
Under such circumstances, the company's technical department worked overnight to find out the reason, but the result was still that the game was not compatible with Battle Online.
This made them realize that the problem was not with the gaming chamber, but with Battle Online itself.
They immediately contacted Wu Guoyi. After all, it was Wu Guoyi who facilitated many of their collaborations with large companies. Only he knew the contact details of the person-in-charge of Battle Online.
At the request of the Jie De Technology Company, Wu Guoyi immediately called Lu Wu and informed him that the person-in-charge of the Jie De Technology Company wanted to meet him to discuss the compatibility of the game.
However, Lu Wu decisively rejected the request.
Although he had always been very easygoing, since the Jie De Technology Company took the initiative to sanction Battle Online, he could not be blamed for retaliating.
Moreover, he was just a cat now, so he could forget about the appointment.
At this time, the Battle Online forum was filled with complaints from the players.
Invincible _ Loneliness: "The promised gaming chamber that can be online for 24 hours is such a lousy thing? I unsubscribed. I was happy for nothing. "
Crayon _ Shinchan: "Another epoch-making game has been released. Those who have used it say it's great. Everyone, go buy it. (laughing emoji)"
Watermelon _ Taro: "I saw everyone buying it, so I reluctantly bought one. However, it's not compatible and I almost smashed it. What use do I have for this thing?"
Xueli _ The _ Strongest: "It seems like the number of buyers on this forum is almost 4 million. I've checked the negative reviews on the official website of the Jie De Corporation. Most of them are saying that Battle Online is not compatible.
Peppa Boar replied to Xueli _ The _ Strongest: "We're the ones who need gaming pods the most. Other games don't have security restrictions as horrifying as Battle Online. That's why more than eighty percent of the players in this forum have ordered it, but the result is really disappointing."
Poverty Makes Me Spicy Chicken: "You won't believe me if I say this, but I prepared several boxes of nutrient solution and planned to hibernate for a few months, but … (flips table emoji)"
Crayon Shin-chan's reply to Poverty Makes Me Hot Chicken: Hibernation is a good word (funny).
Assassin's Creed: "I'll sleep for a year if there's a gaming pod that's compatible with Battle Online. (laughing emoji)"
Crayon Shin-chan replied to Assassin's Creed: "Unless you don't die for a year (laughing emoji)"
…
Under such dire circumstances, the Jie De Corporation repeatedly requested for Wu Guoyi's help. However, Wu Guoyi's attitude was firm, and they were given the cold shoulder. In the end, the Jie De Corporation had no choice but to visit Battle Online's official website and send an apology letter to Lu Wu through the official website's suggested mailbox.
However, Lu Wu didn't fall for it.
Lu Wu knew that if it wasn't for the high user loyalty of Battle Online, the Jie De Corporation's blocking attack would have destroyed the game.
Therefore, since the Jie De Technology Company's initial plan was to destroy him, how could a letter of apology solve the problem?
Hence, Lu Wu replied to the letter.
The content was simple. If the Jie De Corporation was willing to pay five percent of the gaming pod's profits, the research and development of Battle Online might be able to rush through the night to fix the incompatible bug.
Lu Wu's condition infuriated the higher-ups of the Jie De Corporation. In the meeting, each and every one of them angrily stated that they would never compromise.
However, their crisis wasn't over yet.
On the second day after Lu Wu replied to the email, the players in the game received an unexpected surprise. An advertisement for the Black Sea Technology Corporation's gaming pod appeared on the login interface.
Apart from introducing the various uses of the gaming pod, the advertisement also contained a piece of information that the players were most concerned about.
(This gaming pod is perfectly compatible with the Battle Online game. Using this gaming pod to log into the game will remove the 12-hour safe gaming time limit.)
This piece of news undoubtedly sent the players into a frenzy once again.
After seeing the official guarantee that the gaming pod would be perfectly compatible, a large number of orders were sent to the Black Sea Technology Corporation through the in-game link.
Within a day, the Black Sea Technology Corporation's order volume had reached more than four million.
At this moment, even the Black Sea Technology Corporation was dumbfounded.
Just when they thought that the battle with the Jie De Corporation would end in failure, there was a shocking reversal.
From the backend data, it could be seen that 99% of these orders came from the link in the game Battle Online.
Such a huge surprise caught the higher-ups of the Black Sea Technology Corporation off guard. After the surprise, they hastily began to prepare for a counterattack against the Jie De Corporation. They even took the initiative to contact Lu Wu, hoping to collaborate with him on a gaming pod event.
After all, the key to this counterattack was Battle Online, which had provided a large number of orders.
This time, they gave Lu Wu three options for him to choose from.
First, buying a gaming pod would give him a special title in the game.
Second, buying a gaming pod would give him a certain amount of soul coins.
Third, buying a gaming pod would give him an additional activity mission. Upon completion of the mission, he would receive a hidden profession.
At the same time, the Black Sea Technology Corporation guaranteed that all the activity rewards would be paid for by them, in order to expand the influence of the Black Sea Technology Corporation's gaming pod.
However, Lu Wu rejected all three of the plans that came with a binding game reward when buying a gaming pod.
Lu Wu was well aware of the Black Sea Technology Corporation's intentions, but he had always adhered to the principle that external matters should not interfere with the progress of the game.
The Black Sea Technology Corporation thought that Lu Wu could easily settle these three conditions.
In fact, Lu Wu really could not settle them. Other than the first special title that he could casually give out, it was simply unrealistic to use soul coins and hidden profession as a binding reward.
If he really used these things as a reward, especially the hidden profession, Lu Wu was a hundred percent sure that all the players would buy it.
Even the leaders of many major guilds did not have the opportunity to obtain a hidden profession. Not to mention a gaming pod, even if the price was ten times or a hundred times more, the tycoons in the game would gladly accept it.
Moreover, if Lu Wu really wanted to sell it, why would he need to bundle the gaming pod? He might as well just sell the hidden profession.
Although Lu Wu could do a relatively simple bundle of special titles, it would also affect his settings in the game.
After all, whether it was to increase the experience gained from killing monsters or increase the character's attributes, Lu Wu still had to pay soul coins as the cost.
Even if it was to increase the number of free instance dungeons or free teleportation, it was still not a good deal for Lu Wu.
At this stage, Lu Wu did not have much need for real currency, as long as he had enough to spend. What he needed and lacked the most were still soul coins.
Moreover, according to the contract, as long as the Black Sea Technology Corporation purchased a gaming pod through the game's built-in link, Lu Wu would receive 5% of the profits from each pod.
This in itself was a huge sum of money, more than enough for him to spend.
The Black Sea Technology Corporation was stunned by Lu Wu's rejection, but they had no choice but to give up.
On the other hand, the Jie De Technology Corporation was completely enraged.
This was because they realized that a large number of orders from their side had all gone to the Black Sea Technology Corporation.
Most importantly, it was because of the game, Battle Online.
