Chapter 866: Everyone Is Investing
The first company that was not calm was Jiucheng Game Company. Jiucheng contributed a lot to the Legend case being pushed to the point where everyone knew about it.
So in the early period of the case, Legend players were in danger and began to sell off their equipment and gold coins, which hit Legend hard. It caused a large number of Legend players to leave.
However, in the end, Legend decisively waved gold coins and equipment to resolve the problem, because these equipment and gold coins had a guaranteed price, and no matter how much they fell, they would not fall to cabbage, so the internal economy of Legend instantly stabilized.
Only when one plan fails, there will be another plan, and let people publish the prices of equipment and gold coins in the peak period of Legend game before, and what is the price now.
Although it is impossible for commercial market commodities to always be at the peak price, there must be a trough period, which fluctuates back and forth, but Jiucheng does not want to popularize commercial knowledge to the public.
She just wants all Legend players to see how much these game equipment and gold coins are worth in the peak period, and how much they are worth in the current trough period, so that players will have a huge gap in their hearts, feeling that they have lost money, and lost a lot of money.
This move hit the vital part of Legend again, causing some players to sell their gold coins and equipment, and the players who stayed in Legend were hesitant. The originally active market became sluggish again.
However, this move was resolved by the Sunrise Technology side, which directly raised the cross-server PK competition to nearly 500,000 yuan. To win the championship, no matter the level of one's own character, skill level, or equipment on the body, they must be top-notch.
In this way, the originally active cutting-edge equipment market, which should have been the most depressed, became hot in an instant. Many local tyrants wanted to take advantage of this period of low equipment prices to fully arm themselves and win the final championship.
Once the cutting-edge equipment market became active, it began to pull other low-end equipment to become active together. In China, basically everyone buys when it rises and does not buy when it falls.
That is, when they see something rise, they rush to sell it, and they don't care whether the price has reached the limit. The next wave will collapse. They originally wanted to make a fortune, but they ended up being the receiver.
For some things that are now falling but have great potential, they feel that it is not worth investing, so they see legendary equipment being added one by one every day.
Players no longer sell their equipment to see if they can get a higher price, and those who have sold their game equipment regret it, and then hesitate whether to buy back the equipment they are playing at the current market price, and wait for a short time before selling it at a higher price.
The continued popularity of the equipment market has also boosted the gold market, so the studios of the equipment explosion group and the gold group have started working frantically again to make money, and the entire game has been revitalized again.
Seeing this scene, other game companies feel unwilling, but they can only give up in the end, unless they want to invade the internal system of Legend to brush out a wave of equipment and gold coins to disrupt the market. Just when the game companies shifted their attention slightly from Legend and began to pay more attention to their own games.
Lin Wei from Jiucheng University was the first to discover the silent counterattack of the Legend game because of the cooperation with MM. Jiucheng MM has the most users, although now everyone who plays games online has a CC or MM chat software account.
But before, people who played Stone Age registered separately, so now the Stone Age MM account has the most players authorized to log in. Therefore, because it is a case of commercial crime within Legend that everyone is paying attention to, at least all netizens are paying attention to this matter.
Therefore, many Stone Age players not only discussed this matter when chatting with MM, but also discussed it in Stone Age.
At first, Lin Wei didn't care about this matter. After all, this case was a big discussion among all netizens, but he found something wrong while discussing it.
After all, both are point card games, and the point card of Stone Age seems to be a little more expensive than Legend. Therefore, the game equipment and game coins, as well as pets in Stone Age are also valuable.
But because of the legend, and the desire to catch up with Legend, the actual era seems to be a little eager for quick success in terms of game acceleration, which is quite like the rich game players in later generations who do whatever they want.
Legend has made some settings to balance the internal economy. For example, many valuable equipment has a high explosion rate of BOSS, or some enchantment materials with large materials can only be exploded by BOSS.
But when ordinary players kill monsters, there is also a chance to explode good equipment. For example, an ordinary player exploded a dragon slaying sword and instantly made more than a thousand. Such things happen every day in Legend.
But it was different in the Stone Age. The rich grew very fast, while the poor grew slowly, and there was no chance for them to make extra money.
"Fuck! I stayed up all night with my friend last night, and he got a paralysis ring with very good attributes. At that time, a player online behind him offered 700 yuan, but he didn't sell it."
"Is it true?"
"Of course it's true."
"What's the matter? Some time ago, when legendary equipment was very valuable, my friend got a divine weapon Soul Eater. Although it's not as valuable as the Dragon Slayer, it has very good attributes and was sold for 2,000 yuan."
"NND, a weapon is almost as much as my monthly salary."
"What's the matter? Do you know how much some legendary tycoon games are worth? A Dragon Slayer with attributes added to the limit, and then enchanted and blessed to the extreme, costs 56,000 yuan. In the first district, a player bid and it was instantly bought by a tycoon."
"It's not just dragging, is it? How can a handful of games be so expensive?"
"Brother, I can only say that you have never played Legend, so where are you? You have never seen a big boss with a set of equipment worth more than 200,000 yuan. The dazzling look on his outfit makes me salivate. He can explode with just one piece. It’s enough for me to work for a year.”
"What this brother said makes sense. The president of the district I was in before was said to have equipment worth at least 250,000 yuan. He was playing Taoist priest and was not the most popular warrior. His summoned beast was simply not something anyone could spit out. Kill a kid."
"What's the advantage of this? Some of the big guys in our game are also very powerful. Not only are their top-notch equipment valuable, but even if they stand and let you cut them, you can't cut them."
"We do have some very powerful bosses in our game."
"When will I become such a wealthy person?"
"Don't think about how much your monthly salary is? You probably can't even afford a piece of equipment."
"It would be great if I could get good equipment by killing monsters."
"Have you ever exploded?"
"No, but I heard that other people have exploded it."
"Haven't your friends ever exploded?"
"No!"
"Uh, tell me, are those people who exploded it just for their own good? I have seen it with my own eyes that ordinary people can acquire good equipment. My friend is sitting next to me. None of us have seen the explosion of good equipment in the Stone Age. been."
"Hey, don't tell me it's true. Although I haven't seen anyone explode the dragon-slaying knife in the legendary game, I have seen someone explode the protective ring. It sold for 500 yuan at that time. I have seen many people playing Stone Age in Internet cafes. , I haven’t heard of anyone getting it, but those wealthy players often get good stuff.”
This discussion is not limited to just a few players, but almost all Stone Age player circles seem to be discussing this matter. Players from other game companies are also discussing this matter, not just in the game CC and MM. is also like this.
Although no one is yelling at anyone to join a team to play Legend, all players have an impression in their minds, that is, if you are lucky enough to play Legend, you can make money by exploding a good weapon. In the Stone Age, well, work hard to get materials. You can also make a small profit, but it's definitely not as much as a legendary piece of valuable equipment.
Seeing these discussions, Lin Wei smelled a hint of conspiracy, but when she thought carefully, what the players discussed were all facts. There was no one to guide the whole topic, they were just showing off to each other. But such a show off shows that the legend is better than the Stone Age.
"In future generations, check the current playing time of players in the game and make a statistical table." Lin Wei pressed the phone in front of her and ordered to the secretary outside the office.
After cooperating with MM, Stone Age has entered its peak period since the launch of the server, and the number of online players continues to reach new highs, approaching the highest number of online players in Legend.
According to her opinion, with such a case involved, it is not easy for Legend to stabilize the current situation. It will be impossible to return to its peak for some time. This is an overtaking opportunity in the Stone Age.
But although the previous few shots successfully touched up the wounds of Legend, they failed to directly kill Legend, which made her a little angry.
But in the end it was suppressed. If you can't defeat it, then you can't defeat it. Directly surpassing it is also a kind of success. But at this time, she seemed to have discovered signs of the legend's resurgence.
This is definitely not the result she wants to see. After all, she is only one step away from the throne of the most popular game in the country. How can she tolerate Legend's immediate comeback?
Lin Wei's investigation into this conspiracy incident has not yet yielded results, but another blockbuster news has attracted the attention of many people in the industry. Lianzhong's "King of Kings" and Feixun Technology's CC successfully reached a cooperation. CC will begin pouring into players for King of Kings.
Although she had anticipated this incident when she cooperated with Parkson MM, when it actually happened, she was still not as calm as she had imagined.
In particular, the cooperation between Lianzhong and CC is not a profit sharing, but a mutual shareholding between Lianzhong and Feixun Technology. I don’t know whether Lianzhong has taken a fancy to the huge market of chat software users, or whether Feixun is more enterprising than Parkson.
Seeing that the game market can make money by converting users, I couldn't wait to acquire one of the top three game platforms in the country to speed up the completion of my company's industrial chain.
But regardless of the possibility, the cooperation between Lianzhong and Feixun will put tremendous pressure on other game companies. Not only The9, but even Yang Dongxu frowned when he saw the news.
And after investigation, he knew more inside information. Feixun was preparing for a second round of financing. In order to increase its financing weight, Feixun was preparing to acquire Lianzhong to smoothen its profit channels, and then the second round of financing was completed directly. It began to burn money, preparing to defeat MM's competitor in one fell swoop, while also occupying a large piece of the cake in the gaming market.
However, because the final price was not agreed upon with Lianzhong, the acquisition turned into a mutual equity exchange cooperation. However, Feixun did not give up, and the second round of negotiations to acquire Lianzhong had already begun.
