[Breaking news, Metro Nine launches Huanyu System version of Miracle.]
[New turnaround, Huanyu System welcomes strong support.]
[With Metro Nine's help, Huanyu System creates a new ecosystem.]
Previously, Huanyu System had been dealing with Microsoft alone.
Finally, they had a heavyweight helper this time. This company was Metro Nine.
The moment Metro Nine made its move, the entire Internet world was in an uproar.
"F * ck, Metro Nine finally made its move."
"I knew it. Huanyu Technologies must have a backup plan."
"The battle for Microsoft's Huanyu System has just begun."
The industry insiders were excited.
They had long hoped that a high-tech company in China could challenge Microsoft's position.
Huanyu Technologies could be said to be the representative of high-tech companies in China.
However, although Huanyu Technologies had challenged Microsoft previously, Microsoft was too scary. They banned Huanyu Technologies' series of games. Although Huanyu Technologies could barely cope with it now, they were still at a disadvantage overall. Especially when Huanyu Technologies' games were banned, they had problems with cash flow. Not to mention that they could not continue operating, at least they were restricted in the expansion of some of their other businesses.
The industry's evaluation at that time was that if Huanyu Technologies wanted to challenge Microsoft's position, they could not rely on themselves.
In fact, Microsoft's Windows was not the power of Microsoft alone.
Huanyu Technologies had to create its own ecosystem.
However, this ecosystem was not just a series of software and hardware. It had to involve countless companies.
Unfortunately, Huanyu Technologies was the only company.
But now, Metro Nine had suddenly joined Huanyu System.
This was not to say that Metro Nine was very powerful.
Metro Nine was actually just an online gaming company. They might not be very powerful. Metro Nine was not very powerful, but they covered a large number of users. Especially their masterpiece, Miracle, who knew how many people were playing it. However, even though miracles were good, the Huanyu system could not be used. It wasn't that the Huanyu System didn't support Miracle, but that Miracle didn't support the Huanyu System.
At that time, there were many people who strongly suggested that the Nine Cities release the Huanyu System version of Miracle. However, suggestions were one thing, and whether or not it was released was another. People in the industry were clear that online games were not like small programs. Some small programs only needed a few days to release a new version. If Miracle wanted to release a Huanyu system version, it would be no different from remaking a game.
That was why the Nine Cities hadn't done anything before.
But today, the Nine Cities did not hesitate to spend a lot of money to launch a version of the Huanyu system.
In the words of industry insiders, this was definitely a landmark event.
…
"What? Nine Cities released a version of the Miracle Huanyu System?"
He Lefu, the president of Microsoft's China division, could not believe his eyes. They had signed a cooperation agreement with Jiucheng in order to deal with Huanyu Technologies. But in the blink of an eye, the cooperation agreement became a piece of scrap paper. Of course, this cooperation agreement did not have much binding force. Whether or not Jiucheng released a version of the system was their own business. Previously, Jiucheng did not release a version of the Huanyu System because they had considered the large amount of money needed to develop a new version.
"Could it be that Huanyu Technologies gave Jiucheng a sum of money to develop it?"
He Lefu guessed.
However, he shook his head. This should not be possible.
An operating system needed a series of software and hardware to create an ecosystem.
No matter how rich Huanyu Technologies was, it was impossible for them to give so much money to each company.
Not to mention Huanyu Technologies, even Microsoft could not afford it.
Once this was made, other companies followed suit.
Just this sum of money was enough to drag Huanyu Technologies to death.
If you gave it to them, they would not have so much money themselves.
If you didn't give it to them, then what was going on? Who were you looking down on?
Therefore, Huanyu Technologies would not give it to them.
"Director Zhu, I'm He Lefu."
"Oh, Mr. He Lefu. How can I help you?"
"Director Zhu, you've violated the agreement you signed with us."
"Mr. He Lefu, our agreement did not stipulate that we cannot develop another version of the game, right? The agreement only requires us to strengthen our cooperation with Microsoft. In fact, we can continue to strengthen our cooperation in the future. "
"Alright, Director Zhu. Let's not talk about this. I don't understand. Why do you have to spend so much money to develop a new version of the Huanyu System? This does not benefit you much. "
"Mr. He Lefu, Microsoft has always had a long-term vision. I think we should learn from you."
"You think that Huanyu System can compete with Microsoft?"
"No one knows what will happen in the future. However, we have to be prepared. I hope Mr. He Lefu can understand."
"Sorry, we don't understand."
He Lefu hung up the phone.
Of course, he did not find out anything from Zhu Jun.
"Mr. He Lebin, Nine Cities' Zhu Jun and Huanyu Technologies' Chairman Chen Yu have always had a good personal relationship. Perhaps Zhu Jun is supporting Chen Yu."
The assistant said to He Lebin.
However, He Lebin shook his head. "That's possible. However, that's not what I'm worried about. After Nine Cities, will other gaming companies follow suit?"
"Why don't we do something more ruthless and ban Nine Cities? I believe that if we use this kind of ban, Nine Cities will definitely fall more easily than Huanyu Technology. Moreover, we can use this as a warning to others. "
In fact, Microsoft had also thought of this effect when they banned Huanyu Technologies.
However, Huanyu Technologies was too strong. Even if they were banned, they could still hold on.
This caused Microsoft's ban to fall flat.
However, Nine Cities was different.
Nine Cities did not have its own perfect ecosystem and did not have the strength of Huanyu Technologies.
If they banned Nine Cities, even if Nine Cities did not die, they would be half-dead.
"I have to report this to the headquarters."
This was an urgent matter. He Lefu could not make this decision.
It was not that he did not agree with this strategy.
In fact, if they banned Nine Cities, then Microsoft would no longer be competing with Huanyu Technologies. Microsoft would be competing with China's Internet companies.
Previously, because of the operating system, Microsoft and Huanyu Technologies were fighting. The higher-ups in China temporarily held back and did not take any action.
Or rather, they might not have thought it through.
The higher-ups in China were still worried that Huanyu Technologies might not be able to withstand Microsoft's pressure.
If the higher-ups strongly supported Huanyu Technologies, but Huanyu Technologies did not have the strength, it would put the higher-ups in a dilemma.
Moreover, China had suffered too many losses in the area of chips and operating systems.
For example, a university professor dared to fake the development of the first China chip.
Hence, the higher-ups gave a series of support.
Later, he found out that it was all a lie. The chip was Motorola's, but the professor had polished it a few times with some tools to erase the words on it. Then, it became the country's.
Then, there was a series of domestic operating systems. Every time they were promoted, they were very powerful.
But after they were launched, no one cared about them.
But this time, the higher-ups in China had a clearer understanding of Huanyu Technologies's strength.
This time, if Microsoft dared to do this, Microsoft would be doomed.
…
"Chen Yu, do you think Microsoft will ban Nine Cities?"
Although he chose to support Chen Yu, Zhu Jun was still worried. He suddenly called Chen Yu.
"It's possible."
Chen Yu was not joking. He said seriously, "So, Nine Cities should be prepared."
Zhu Jun was helping Chen Yu, and Chen Yu will not lie to him.
"But Microsoft will not do anything rash. If they do, the higher-ups will find fault with them."
"But we have to be careful. If Microsoft dares to ban Nine Cities, Huanyu Technologies will take responsibility."
This was Chen Yu's guarantee to Zhu Jun.
But a few days later, Zhu Jun was no longer worried.
The reason was because Chen Tianqiao had made a move.
"Zhu Jun, our Legend of Huanyu operating system is developed. How is it? It's fast enough, right?"
"Old Qiao, you're really something. Aren't you behind us by a while?"
"So what? We have acquired Legend of Huanyu's parent company. I am now the boss of Legend of Huanyu. So, they have to listen to me."
"666 …"
Zhu Jun heaved a sigh of relief when he heard this.
If Nine Cities supported Huanyu Technologies, then Microsoft might do something to Nine Cities.
Even if they had to take a risk, they might do it.
But what if Shengda joined the fray?
Fine.
Shengda is not the only one.
After Shengda launched the Legend of Huanyu operating system, NetEase's Chairman, Ding Sanshi, announced that they will be launching the Legend of Huanyu operating system soon.
Nine Cities, Shengda, and NetEase made a move. Microsoft's China Region President, He Lefu, quietly canceled his ticket to the US.
Should he still go?
He still needs to go.
But He Lefu felt it's time for the headquarters to come to China.
Even the founder, Bill, should come.
He felt he could no longer hold on to the China region.
What about banning?
What's the point of banning?
You can ban Nine Cities, but can you ban Shengda?
Or can you ban NetEase too?
If you ban all these companies, you will be helping Huanyu Technologies.
At that time, you will realize there will be a mysterious hand in the market that will destroy Microsoft's operating system.
At that point, it will no longer be a competition between companies.
…
"Manager Ding, thank you. Thank you so much."
Ding Sanshi acted in time, and Chen Yu immediately called Ding Sanshi.
"Thank your ass. You forced me to do this."
"No, Manager Ding. You have always been a noble person. I know that."
"Get lost. You promised me before. Send Xu Bo to me now."
"Okay, okay. Oh yes, Manager Ding, when will the Legend of Huanyu operating system be released? "
"This … it's still far away. It's only half developed. It will take another three months."
"What the …"
Chen Yu was stunned. "Manager Ding, didn't you say it would be released in a few days?"
"It's a few days. I didn't say the exact time."
Ding Sanshi's explanation was flawless. He continued, "I saw that Zhu Jun and Old Qiao were in danger, so I announced it to the public in advance. Sigh, don't thank me. I know you want to thank me again. There's no need for that. It's just a business. I still need your help to adjust the Legend of Huanyu Technologies' economic system. So, if you want to thank me, send Xu Bo to me now. "
"Manager Ding, thank you. I will send Xu Bo to you in a while."
Although Ding Sanshi's words were harsh, Chen Yu saw the other side of Ding Sanshi.
Although Huanyu Technologies and NetEase had a lot of competition before, it was just a competition between companies. Chen Yu and Ding Sanshi did not have a deep grudge. At this critical moment, Ding Sanshi still stepped in. This showed Ding Sanshi's righteousness.
"Xu Bo, stop what you are doing and head to Guang City immediately."
"Boss Chen, NetEase?"
"You know about it?"
Since he owed Ding Sanshi a favor, Chen Yu had to fulfill his promise to Ding Sanshi.
Chen Yu immediately called Xu Bo to his office.
"Manager Ding from NetEase called me earlier."
"What the …"
Chen Yu was stunned.
Chen Yu had just expressed his gratitude to Ding Sanshi, but he didn't expect that this bastard had secretly contacted Xu Bo.
What was he doing? He clearly wanted to poach Xu Bo back to NetEase.
But this was normal.
Didn't he poach Xu Bo from NetEase?
"Ding Sanshi wants you to go back to NetEase?"
Chen Yu asked.
"Yes."
"What do you think?"
"I didn't agree."
Xu Bo said directly.
"Xu Bo, it's okay. I'm not an unreasonable person. In fact, NetEase is not bad either. You can make your choice. If you think NetEase is suitable, you can also go to NetEase. Of course, Huanyu Technologies will always be your home. "
Chen Yu naturally did not want to let Xu Bo go.
Of course, Chen Yu would not treat Ding Sanshi as an outsider.
After all, he did the same in the past. Not to mention, he still owed him a favor. Chen Yu pretended not to see this little trick.
However, pretending not to see it was one thing, but this did not mean that Chen Yu wanted Xu Bo to leave.
Fantasy Journey to the West still depended on Xu Bo.
Fantasy Journey to the West had a long lifespan. How could Chen Yu let Xu Bo go?
Even if Fantasy Journey to the West did not have a long lifespan, Chen Yu still valued Xu Bo's ability.
Where could he find such a talent? How could he let him go back to NetEase?
But for a talent like Xu Bo, it was useless to use contracts or force him.
Xu Bo was a sentimental person. Chen Yu played the sentimental card with Xu Bo.
"Boss Chen, please don't say that. If it weren't for you, I would still be working as a customer service representative at NetEase."
"No, I think you would have been fired."
"Although NetEase's Ding Sanshi is very sincere this time, I have long regarded Huanyu Technologies as my home."
Afraid that Chen Yu would misunderstand, Xu Bo hurriedly expressed his stance to Chen Yu.
"Xu Bo, I understand."
Chen Yu hugged Xu Bo. "Okay, go to NetEase. NetEase helped us this time. When you go to them, don't hide anything. If you can help NetEase, do it. "
"Chief Chen, wouldn't we be setting up a strong competitor like this? I studied their Fantasy Journey to the West. Their Fantasy Journey to the West has a lot of fun. If we manage it well, it will have a big impact on Fantasy Journey to the West. "
"Competition is motivation. Don't worry. I believe that when you come back, you will still be able to make Fantasy Journey to the West number one in the industry."
"Yes, Boss Chen. I know what to do."
Xu Bo nodded and went to Guang City, where NetEase's headquarters was located.
