CSGO Unboxing Streamer: A Charity-Driven Tycoon

Chapter 141 Closed Beta News Released! A Storm is Brewing! All Eyes Are On!
After experiencing the training function.

Lu Yiming nodded in satisfaction.

He then looked at Zheng Huacai and said, "Won't there be any copyright issues?"

Lu Yiming had used all of these features in the Creative Workshop.

It simply extracts the essential parts and simplifies the originally complex operations, combining them into the so-called training function.

In response to Lu Yiming's question.

Jiang Yuanming shook his head and said, "No! I've already consulted with Attorney Cao, and I plan to launch an achievement series badge mission during the closed beta. Players can gain experience points by mastering the detailed operations of various maps in the training function, which can be used to upgrade badge levels. Each time a badge reaches the experience requirement for upgrading, players must pass the corresponding assessment. This will encourage players to master the maps and improve the overall level of the game."

After Jiang Yuanming finished speaking, he opened a document on his computer.

Inside are pre-made badges and design concepts.

Most of the major maps in the game have corresponding badges. Each badge has four levels. The basic badge can be obtained by playing any match or ranked game once. To upgrade further, you need to spend time in the training ground.

of course.

You will also gain experience points for winning matches on the default map.

The higher the rank, the more experience you gain.

Once you've accumulated enough experience, you can upgrade your badge by passing the assessment levels in the training function.

This badge is mainly for giving new players a sense of accomplishment.

For example, a player who is only at the Gold rank can have the top title of "Master of the Desert 2 Map". At the same time, after the platform has been operating for a period of time, you can tell whether your teammates are good or bad by looking at their badges.

Lu Yiming nodded as he looked at this part of the content.

One shortcoming of current CSGO players is that they don't have a strong desire to explore the maps. Even Lu Yiming himself is the same. If it weren't for the fact that practicing more would make him feel a significant improvement, he would probably be like most players, only choosing to play one or two maps repeatedly.

At this moment, Lu Yiming asked in confusion, "What if someone's success is due to a proxy?"

This mechanism is similar to the upgrade test in KartRider.

If all else fails, I can just ask an expert to help me get through it.

In that case, the achievement was indeed obtained.

But the player is still bad.

Upon hearing this, Jiang Yuanming laughed and said, "It is undeniable that once this feature is launched, there will definitely be players who will boost achievements. Therefore, I added a teammate evaluation function during the game settlement. If a player's skill level receives too many negative reviews from players of the same rank, the player's current badge will be automatically downgraded. After being downgraded, the player will need to go back to the training function to pass the assessment again!"

Upon hearing this, Lu Yiming remarked that the punishment was perhaps too lenient.

Jiang Yuanming's answer was that such a moderate punishment was enough.

After all, an achievement system doesn't need a complicated punishment mechanism. It just needs to let players know that the platform is doing something. The fact that paying players are willing to pay to get achievements is, in a sense, proof that the badge system is successful.

It can also give players who earn badges through their skills a sense of accomplishment.

Upon hearing this, Lu Yiming nodded thoughtfully.

At this point, Jiang Yuanming continued, "As for the players who are reported for AFK or slacking off, the punishment will be more severe. However, we also need to consider special circumstances such as internet or power outages. Therefore, I plan to use a month and a week as the time units. The first offense each week will have a lower punishment weight. Similarly, if there are multiple consecutive offenses within a month and it is not just the first offense, the punishment weight will be increased! This includes, but is not limited to, time-limited bans from the ladder and the number of times you can complete the badge assessment."

The platform doesn't need to worry about preventing cheating; it only needs to focus on improving the player's gaming experience.

The two then discussed in detail some issues following the platform's internal testing.

This discussion lasted for more than three hours.

Towards the end of the conversation.

When Jiang Yuanming brought up the issue of publicity.

He immediately laughed and said, "You can go all out with the publicity plan; I'll provide you with ample funding!"

Lu Yiming completely entrusted Jiang Yuanming with this project.

After talking for more than three hours, Lu Yiming was very satisfied with the platform that Jiang Yuanming was in charge of.

Since he can satisfy him, he is not stingy.

Money can truly be equated with a person's confidence.

Let's not talk about the money on the company's books.

With the previous "Super Rich Card" ending.

The only time he'll have nine figures in cash left is when his salary comes in this month.

In February, his monthly income from live streaming reached two million after tax.

Now we're just a little short of five million.

His income may not be as high as some streamers with high signing bonuses, but his contract is much easier than theirs.

Upon hearing this, Jiang Yuanming shook his head and said, "We don't need to spend too much money on promotion! Diting's capabilities are the best advertisement. All we need to do is promote ourselves as a green platform. Once the domestic player base is saturated, I will start to attract overseas players. At that time, we will need your investment, Mr. Lu!"

Speaking of it.

Jiang Yuanming looked at Lu Yiming and smiled, "For the domestic part, I believe your publicity efforts, Mr. Lu, will be enough!"

That's a bit of an exaggeration.

But that didn't stop Lu Yiming from being happy.

People like to be praised.

Especially since this praise is true.

That concludes our discussion.

Lu Yiming glanced at the time.

He immediately stood up and said, "Alright! Let's stop here for today! I'm very satisfied with the platform. You've all worked hard these past few days, so I'm planning to give you a bonus. Send me a list later, and I'll contact Attorney Cao to arrange it. We'll distribute it after the platform's internal testing ends!"

Bonuses are a form of incentive in addition to wages.

Although Lu Yiming is not directly involved in the management of the company.

But at certain times, one still needs to make their presence known.

Upon hearing this, Jiang Yuanming smiled and nodded, saying, "Okay! I'll announce this good news in a bit. Thank you, President Lu, on behalf of everyone!"

Seeing that Jiang Yuanming could understand what this meant.

Lu Yiming nodded in satisfaction.

Lu Yiming didn't go live that Friday. After finishing his work at the company, he went shopping with Fu Xiaoli.

The next morning, Lu Yiming opened his eyes.

The data panel was opened directly.

Tianen updated in the early morning. If you keep using it in the early morning, it will eventually become something you use in the morning. So it's better to just sleep in and wait until morning.

I'm not in a hurry to use it.

There are two things he absolutely must do every day when he wakes up.

The first is to use the lucky dice feature, and the second is to check in.

The former number is three.

This means that if he plays in the points match today, he will most likely lose more than 100,000.

As for the sign-in function, Lu Yiming is now completely disappointed.

The system then announced that he had obtained a treasure chest.

Lu Yiming said with a wry smile, "One is fine! At least it's like I've won a gold medal!"

Two daily tasks have come to an end.

Lu Yiming's gaze fell upon Tian En, which was undoubtedly his most powerful divine skill at the moment.

He didn't feel bad about wasting two skill enhancement scrolls.

When Lu Yiming's gaze fell on the Heavenly Grace LV1 skill.

His expression changed from a wry smile to anticipation.

He then exclaimed excitedly, "Let me see what my luck will be this month!"

【Ding! 】

[Congratulations, host, on obtaining the software Kunpeng!]

Software Kunpeng?

What is this?
Lu Yiming looked bewildered upon hearing the sound.

But at this time.

His phone, which was charging next to his pillow, rang.

The caller ID shows Liu Zhenyun.

Liu Zhenyun rarely calls Lu Yiming, or rather, he never does.

I instinctively picked up the phone and answered it.

"Mr. Lu! Excuse me! It's like this! Mr. Jiang contacted me before saying that he wanted to develop an accelerator to support the platform's future overseas expansion strategy. I have already prepared the software development project proposal and sent it to your email, Mr. Lu! If there are no problems, I will try to develop the first version within a month."

Lu Yiming was taken aback upon hearing the sound.

Then, as if remembering something, he tentatively asked, "I wonder what the software's name is?"

The words fell.

Liu Zhenyun said in a deep voice, "I proposed the Kunpeng. If you, President Lu, feel it's not acceptable, you can change it as you wish!"

Hear this.

Lu Yiming's lips twitched.

Liu Zhenyun really likes the Classic of Mountains and Seas.

I heard from Jiang Yuanming that he adopted a stray dog ​​and named it Qilin.

The system just mentioned Kunpeng, and he didn't quite grasp it at first.

But is it necessary for Tianen to give him this software?
Accelerators aren't actually that technically difficult to obtain. Compared to acquiring accelerator software, he really wants skills like maxing out Heavenly Favor.

At this moment, he could only think about it with regret.

It's possible that Tianen's rewards are a mix of good and bad, and he just happened to draw the worst one.

Calm yourself down.

Lu Yiming immediately smiled and said, "No need to change it! Just do it your way! I'll look at the plan later! I'll get back to you a little later!"

The cooldown time after using Heavenly Grace is one new moon.

Lu Yiming could only start hoping that Tianen would give him enough surprises next month.

That evening, the day arrived.

It has been exactly one week since his last outdoor live broadcast.

I haven't streamed for a week.

The live stream was very lively.

More than 100,000 viewers waited in the live broadcast room.

Lu Yiming experienced both rise and fall within this week.

"One fall" refers to the banning of his live stream, which almost made his fans think he was finished.

The two incidents were a tacit praise from the People's Daily website and participation in the platform's IPO bell-ringing ceremony. This can be attributed to the comments from netizens.

He replaced that man.

Together with Bao Ge and PDD, they formed the new "Three Gods of the Platform".

7 p.m.

Lu Yiming started the broadcast on time.

After a week without live streaming, I naturally wanted to prepare some gifts for my fans.

However, this time Lu Yiming didn't intend to pay.

After starting the broadcast, he laughed and said, "Brothers! Do you remember the platform I mentioned before?"

The viewers were all taken aback.

Then his eyes lit up.

Some clever viewers in the live chat have already guessed it.

Lu Yiming nodded vigorously and said, "That's right! It's basically done! We'll officially enter the closed beta testing phase next month! I wonder if you guys would be willing to help with the closed beta testing?"

Hearing Lu Yiming admit it.

The viewers got excited.

It's worth noting that Lu Yiming has stated more than once that his platform is absolutely cheat-free.

Out of trust in him.

The fans still have high expectations for the platform he often talks about.

Upon hearing this, many expressed their willingness and inquired about the specific details of the platform in the live chat.

In this regard.

Lu Yiming laughed and said, "We'll see when it goes live! There's no point in talking about it now! The closed beta won't last too long either, it's expected to end in about a month, and the open beta should be before National Day! Don't worry if you didn't get a spot."

Hear this.

The viewers were taken aback at first, then their lips curled into smiles.

The Perfect World platform was announced to launch during the National Day holiday, but Lu Yiming's speed is even faster than his.

The subsequent discussion in the live chat revolved around this platform.

Lu Yiming only said what he could say.

For example, how exactly does he prevent cheating?

Lu Yiming laughed and said, "I'm not a technician, so I can't give you a professional introduction. However, I've had my team post a five million reward on several well-known hacker forums, hoping that someone can develop a cheat that can be used on my platform!"

confidence!

Lu Yiming's words highlight his confidence!
His confidence inspired his viewers, who in turn raised their expectations for the platform's launch to a new level.

Lu Yiming's live stream ended that evening.

The news that his platform was about to undergo internal testing started spreading like wildfire in the CS:GO community.

In particular, the five million reward was confirmed by a screenshot posted by someone.

This further amplified the buzz surrounding the topic.

soon.

The CEOs of several domestic platforms received this message on their desks.

Compared to the several platforms that have already started operating.

The person in charge of the Perfect World platform frowned upon seeing this news.

Perfect World is the largest integrated film and game company in China.

Games are only one part of their business.

It was also the day after Lu Yiming officially announced the internal testing of his platform.

In the morning, the person in charge of the platform project came to the company to meet with the CEO.

Lu Zhen.

He is the vice chairman of Perfect World Group and also the company's CEO.

At this moment, he looked at the platform's manager and asked in a deep voice, "What do you think of this Starry Sky Esports Platform?"

It's no wonder that he, as the CEO, would pay attention to this kind of thing.

The main problem is that Lu Yiming's tone was too arrogant.

It claims to be an absolutely green platform.

And they were even bold enough to offer a reward of five million.

Upon hearing this, the person in charge said seriously, "If what he said is true, then we have absolutely no advantage. But I really can't imagine how he solved the cheating problem!"

Hear this.

Lu Zhen couldn't help but twitch the corners of his mouth slightly.

This was not the answer he wanted.

But it's true.

The person in charge naturally knew that this was not the answer Lu Zhen wanted.

But unfortunately, that's all he can say right now.

After all, they underestimated Lu Yiming's platform.

They didn't do any investigation at all.

Now that the game is already in closed beta testing, it's too late to investigate.

This doesn't mean they've become less intelligent.

It's like someone wanting to develop an instant messaging software. Before achieving certain results, Tencent will definitely ignore you. If they even give you a serious look, it's considered a loss for them.

And they are the same.

After all, they hold the domestic distribution rights for CS:GO.

They have a fundamental technological advantage over other platforms, so they don't need to worry about other platforms at all.

The platform will be used to develop esports projects in the future.

This is their ultimate expectation for the future of this platform.

at this time.

The person in charge continued, "Right now, we can only wait for this platform to go live, and then gather our strength to break its green platform slogan. If it's just a paper tiger, then it's not a big deal. But if it can really solve the FPS cheating problem, then I think Mr. Lu, you should consider whether or not to cooperate with them!"

The person in charge was a close confidant of Lu Zhen.

The two are also very good friends in private.

The two were originally partners in building the empire, but Lu Zhen is now in a higher position.

Upon hearing this, Lu Zhen began to ponder.

To be frank, he didn't believe the other party could achieve a result without using cheats.

The technology itself is far more valuable than the platform.

He then said in a deep voice, "Let's prepare for both possibilities! Since they've already started the closed beta, whether they're real or not, I'll join them. At the same time, once their platform goes live, I'll organize a technical team to study their anti-cheat technology. I want to know what gives them the confidence to call themselves a 'pure green platform'!"

All FPS games currently on the market are like a girl whose hands and feet are tied.

I want to do something.

It's really very easy.

You can send two strong men to guard the door, but what if someone breaks through a window or wall, or even hides?

You can't do anything about people who want to get in.

As for the defiled girl...

The washing and wiping game is still the same old game!
This is the current state of the so-called anti-cheating systems on most platforms.

Valve's anti-cheat system is even more unique.

The core idea is, "I'd rather do nothing than make a mistake! I'd rather let a thousand guilty people go free than kill one innocent one!"

To put it bluntly, a girl will always have your mark on her, and Valve uses this mark afterward to ensure that there are no false bans.

You said it worked, right?
He's useless!
You say it's useless?
He can also achieve a near 100% success rate in preventing accidental bans!
The main point is to settle scores later.

Let alone Lu Zhen, he didn't believe it.

The news spread that evening.

Anyone with even a basic understanding of software technology says they don’t believe Lu Yiming’s platform can be completely green.

Meanwhile, many development teams are eagerly awaiting the start of internal testing for Lu Yiming's platform.

In their view.

As a public figure, Lu Yiming is responsible for his words.

They were determined to get those five million.

Some teams have even begun to compete against Lu Yiming's platform.

For a while.

The popularity began to rise further.

This has drawn attention not only from CS:GO players.

The entire FPS community is waiting for the platform that Lu Yiming mentioned to be launched.

In a sense.

This is definitely something everyone is watching!

After announcing the platform's internal testing period.

In the following two days, the greater the hype, the greater the skepticism.

Even Lu Yiming's own fans were divided into three camps.

The first group consisted of over two thousand VIP members who strongly supported the cause.

The second group consists of online trolls who are considered skeptical.

The third group is the bystanders.

It's not accurate to say that the second group was entirely composed of online trolls; it's more accurate to say that they were led by online trolls.

But this is normal.

It would be strange if competitors didn't "make a statement" given such a huge buzz.

It will premiere on Monday.

Watching the two opposing sides arguing fiercely in the live chat.

Lu Yiming laughed and said, "Stop cursing! Stop cursing! Aren't you tired? There are only a few days left next month! If you're so capable, then take five million from me!"
