On the morning of November 19th, Tournament for the Best S2 came to an end.
In the end, a team made up of non-professional players, Hell's Frontline, won the championship of S2.
Although only two members of their team had fought against members of other teams, this did not affect their success in winning the championship. When the other teams were either wiped out or forced out of the scenario, Hell's Frontline still had three members who were perfectly fine in the main universe.
In this competition, Feng Bujue fully demonstrated the power of 'borrowing'. Just by looking at the "competition" alone … it was obvious that he had been planning for a long time before the "Twilight of the Gods". On the day of the competition, when the members of Regulation, Warring States, and Loser's Alliance were still confused, Feng Bujue had already included them all in his plan and used the various forces … to take care of his opponents one by one.
Other than the competition, which was the 'super dimensional invasion', Dream Company used the same old trick — 'this is a big event before the update'.
That night, all the players who 'died' in the disaster recovered their consciousness at dawn and returned to the real world safely.
The council made some slight adjustments to their memory so that they would not notice that 'time in real life had stopped' and allowed them to sleep for a while after time resumed.
It was not until 12: 37 am that the game server suddenly shut down, and all the players were forced to go offline.
At this time, the Players who had just woken up did not have any doubts about the time, because according to the conversion rate of 1: 10, thirty-seven minutes was almost six hours, and they felt that it was not much different from what they had experienced just now.
However, after the competition ended, many people still expressed their doubts about the various settings of S2. Regulation was no doubt one of them …
Even though the members of Regulation Team 1 admitted defeat, the upper management of the studio was not satisfied.
The management thought that … the championship was already in the bag. After all, their biggest competitor, Ragnarok, had already withdrawn from the competition, and with their Dream Team's lineup, they had no reason to lose.
To their surprise, they still did not win the championship …
Furthermore, there was no recording of the finals, so the studio had no idea what had happened in the scenario. To put it bluntly … even if Dream Company did something shady in the competition, they had no evidence. They could only watch helplessly.
Of course, even if there were doubts and dissatisfaction, Order was still Order, not Zombie Blade.
If it was Zombie Blade, after encountering something like this, the first thing he would do would be to summon a large number of ghostwriters to slander Dream Company. He would put on the image of a righteous warrior and start a war with Dream Company.
However, if Order wanted to fight with the Dream Company, it would definitely not use such painless and shrewish methods. Order's approach was … to directly send people from the public relations and legal department to engage in private negotiations with the relevant personnel of the Dream Company.
In the past few years, [Order] had used this method to gain a lot of benefits for itself.
In fact, many game agencies in the country were very fake in nature. Most of them operated with the mentality of "making quick money". The most common method was to import or copy some mediocre online games, or develop some clumsy mobile and web-based games that were purely to cheat money. They relied on all kinds of vulgar publicity to attract users … After doing this for a few years, seeing that the returns were about to start dropping, they would escape and start anew.
Game companies like this could be said to be everywhere. If one went to the Industry and Commerce Bureau to check their establishment time, they would most likely be empty shells that had only been in operation for less than half a year. With a little investigation, one would find that there were many violations.
Therefore, when a big company like Order came to negotiate with them with a "serious" attitude, most of the time, they would choose to compromise. Those that did not compromise were mostly the type that did not fear boiling water. They were the kind that could not wait for a few years and could leave at any time.
However, Dream Company … was very different from the opponents that Order had encountered before.
Their attitude could basically be summed up as — Even if the government negotiated with terrorists, we would not negotiate with you.
You are not satisfied with the result of the competition? What does it have to do with us? If you are not satisfied, then forget it.
Hire online ghostwriters to slander us? Do whatever you want, as long as you don't go overboard. If you go overboard, we will use the optical computer to make a smart subprogram to slander you for the rest of your life.
Threaten the entire studio to quit the game? Oh, take care, I won't send you off.
Launch a hacker attack on our server? Do you believe that we will blow up those hackers in front of the computer screen?
Sue us through legal procedures? Okay, if you win, our boss's name will be written upside down from now on.
What? You have someone above you? Don't worry, our people above you can make your people disappear from the earth.
The above were all the negotiation procedures that the Dream Company's boss, Woody himself personally confirmed. This was only a part of it … The complete version was as thick as a booklet. It covered almost all the problems that could be encountered in the negotiation.
Not only that, but Woody had also personally gone to the company's security department to teach the company's security guards how to inflict as much pain as possible without being able to detect any injuries. This was to prevent the 'low-quality' visitors from doing something too extreme after the negotiation failed.
In conclusion, many studios led by Order went to Dream Company to 'negotiate' after the competition, but they were all rebuffed without exception.
Even though they were filled with resentment, there was nothing they could do.
With regards to 'quitting', they were just empty words. No one would really do it.
Everyone knew that after this competition, the popularity of Thriller Paradise would be even greater than before. The increasing number of players and the extremely high rate of players paying meant that there was a huge business opportunity. As the saying goes, business is business. Just based on this point, the major studios had to swallow their anger … In the end, what they pursued was not "fairness in the competition," but profit. As long as there was money to be made, this small matter … was fine.
On the afternoon of the 20th of November, the various reports, discussions, and complaints about the Tournament for the Best were still going strong online.
However, no one knew that … a secret battle between the game studio and the game company had quietly and quickly ended.
After all, for Dream Company, dealing with the big bosses of the gaming world was just a small matter. The attention of the entire company had already been focused on matters related to the "new version" …
