The bullet screen technology was very simple. The technology had already been developed in the background.
However, it had to be applied to the entire station.
The effects of the bullet screen font, the optimization of the bullet screen for internet speed, and so on had to be considered.
Three days later, Huanyu's video game channel introduced the bullet screen function.
"What is this? Why are there fonts in the video?"
"Eh, I think I can post one too."
"Haha, fun."
Netizens who liked watching videos fell in love with the new bullet screen function as soon as it appeared.
This made them feel fresh and excited at the same time.
"I used to watch videos alone. Now I realize that there are so many people watching with me."
"This function is amazing. I have to support it."
"This game commentator is so confident. Those who agree will like it."
The bullet screen function was very simple. It was so simple that everyone knew what it was once it was released.
Moreover, they could participate in it very quickly.
This gave users a brand new experience.
Before this, they only watched videos. At most, they would leave a comment in the comments section after watching it. Some of these were standalone videos.
However, they could not watch videos alone. They could also insert a sentence in the video after watching it.
Sometimes, their words were more interesting than the video.
Just like this game video. The commentator was accidentally killed at the beginning of the game.
At this moment, a netizen directly wrote on the bullet screen: "Angry first blood."
Instantly.
"Angry First Blood" became popular all of a sudden.
Therefore … for a period of time, the players seemed to have cheated.
With the support of the bullet screen function, a series of godly comments appeared one after another.
"Don't be a coward. If you're not convinced, just do it."
"The return key has been removed. I won't go home until I die."
"Come on, let's play."
"Milk me, milk me."
"I've never won five consecutive games in the internet cafe."
The new bullet screen function instantly caused Huanyu's video game commentary section to become popular all over the internet.
Originally, there was not much difference between Huanyu's video and Tudou Youku's video. However, with the support of the bullet screen function, Huanyu's video games in the country left the two competitors far behind.
That was not all.
Benefiting from the impact of the game commentator's bullet screen, more and more game commentator videos were released.
At the same time, a series of influential commentary stars were born one after another.
They were like beautiful little breasts.
Of course, that was not all.
With the appearance of the bullet screen function, he also drove the entire League of Legends professional league.
In fact, before League of Legends, there was already a professional league in Dota.
However, at that time, the Pro League was still considered a niche, so the public didn't participate much.
Moreover, it couldn't be broadcasted on the same platform as the video website, so its influence was limited.
However, the appearance of the bullet screen instantly pushed the League of Legends to a peak.
It wasn't even the Pro League.
He had attracted the support of tens of thousands of students in just the first stage of the campus tournament.
"I support Peking University."
"I support Tsinghua University."
"I support Nankai."
"Motherf * cker, are they bullying our Great Lanxiang?"
"In terms of learning, we're not as good as Peking University. But in terms of playing, who can our New Oriental beat?"
"Scram, I, Peking University's Green Bird, am not convinced …"
"Ah, Peking University's green bird is also from Peking University?"
"Well, I think so."
Just a month later, the official website of League of Legends changed the number of simultaneous online users from the original one million to the current two million.
Benefiting from the rapid rise of League of Legends, even the number of domestic Internet cafes increased by more than 3,000 within a month.
As for why it increased so quickly?
Other than the fact that more and more users were accessing the Internet.
More importantly, more and more players were flocking to Internet cafes to play games.
Especially League of Legends.
Basically, those who played League of Legends were in groups. Sometimes there were two people, sometimes there were three people, and sometimes there were four or five people.
Therefore, you could often see rows of people playing League of Legends in Internet cafes.
Sometimes, there were even dozens of people who could form two teams.
Such a high probability also greatly stimulated the investment passion of the Internet cafes' owners. They opened new shops one after another.
Of course, it wasn't just the Internet cafes that were affected by this.
As for home PC users, many people began to slowly shift into the embrace of the Huanyu system.
Especially those who had just bought a PC computer.
They didn't care about Windows. They just wanted to know if the computer they bought could play League of Legends.
If it could be played, then they would consider buying it.
If it couldn't be played …
Sorry, why would I buy your computer?
What?
You want to buy a computer to study?
I'm sorry.
Studying was secondary. Playing games was the most important.
Most of the time, people bought a computer for the purpose of learning.
However, most of the time, studying only took up a very small proportion of the time. Playing games took up most of the time.
It was just like the Little Tyrant learning machine.
Was he really buying The Little Tyrant for the sake of learning?
…
"What? He Lefu, you're saying that Huanyu Technologies' League of Legends has exceeded 2 million simultaneous online?"
"Yes."
"Why do Chinese people like online games so much?"
Steve, the CEO of Microsoft, was confused.
Although 2 million people online at the same time could not threaten the position of Microsoft Windows.
But this was becoming more and more threatening to them.
Furthermore, the fact that the number of people online at the same time had exceeded 2 million meant that Microsoft had completely failed in their attempt to ban Huanyu Technology.
You can ban my game.
Then I don't need your Windows system. Huanyu Technologies can also achieve millions of people online at the same time.
Moreover, with the continuous popularity of League of Legends, many users had spontaneously switched to Windows.
"Steve, Chinese people are indeed more interested in online games than other countries. Huanyu Technologies is taking advantage of this. They want to attack the system through the game ecosystem. "
"That's impossible. No matter how popular their game is, can it be played by tens or hundreds of millions of people worldwide?"
"Mr. Steve, although this is impossible, this has already affected our Windows market share."
He Lefu took out a document.
On the document was the latest survey of the PC operating system market share in China.
Windows still dominated the market with 90% of the market share.
Huanyu's system only accounted for 9%, and other systems accounted for 1%.
However, this was only the data from last month.
Only half of the month had passed, and the data was not out yet.
However, according to the current statistics, Huanyu's market share had increased to 10%.
Although it was only an increase of one point, it was already terrifying.
Especially this one point share, many of them were home PC users.
"He Lefu, is there nothing you can do?"
"I …"
He Lefu had a headache.
Although he was the president of the China division of Microsoft, he was only responsible for the operating system business.
He really didn't know anything about games.
Not only did he not understand, but even in the operating system business, Huanyu Technologies was also a headache.
Otherwise, he would not have reported this to the headquarters.
However, although He Lefu did not have a solution, he still had a brain.
After thinking about it, He Lefu said, "I think our strategy of joining forces with the gaming companies in China was the right one. However, Huanyu Technologies is the number one gaming company in China. It will be difficult to shake their position. We can actually find other gaming companies to work with … "
"You mean to find Blizzard?"
"Yes."
He Lefu nodded.
