Chapter 225: A Heavy Blow to Penguin (Please subscribe tonight!)
It would be fine if a good press briefing inexplicably turned into a new game launch conference, but at the game launch conference you had to bow to netizens and future players everywhere, and then come up with such a death. Do you have any shame?
You are worth hundreds of billions, can you please be tougher?
Many big names in the gaming industry felt a bit heart-broken when they saw this scene.

Because to be honest, if they were in Lu Yao's position, they would not be able to achieve the same level as Lu Yao.

He became famous at a young age and has a net worth of tens of billions.

If they could achieve such results at Lu Yao's age, they would be so proud of themselves.

In fact, at this point, some executives in the gaming industry have also understood what has happened.

Perhaps it is true that Yang Shuping and Yang Junfei were poached by outside headhunters, but after knowing this, Mr. Lu of Guangan Games did not persuade or stop them. Instead, he allowed the situation to ferment, eventually causing this public opinion storm.

He even took advantage of this public opinion storm to hold a new game launch conference.

This wave of traffic has made Mr. Lu very wealthy.

In order to make the game stand out, Mr. Lu treated Yang Shuping and others like Japanese devils, and at the same time killed friendly competitors like pigs.

After seeing Lv Yao's series of operations, executives of well-known domestic online game companies such as QQ, Tencent, Shihua, and Giant are thinking about what they should do next, while others are thinking about how Tencent will respond.

The jackpot of MOBA games was originally in the hands of Penguin. Now, after "Shoot Them", Lu Yao has actually begun to enter the MOBA game market. Is this a revenge for Penguin plagiarizing their "Shoot Them"?

Or is Lu Yao going to charge forward and challenge one of the domestic Internet giants, just like Zhou Lei did in previous years?
Simultaneously.

The investment circle that followed this live broadcast was also thinking that even if Lu Yao failed in this challenge, they would still increase their investment in Lu Yao’s company.

Although Zhou and Lei failed in their challenge to Penguin, they are still doing very well in their respective fields. Zhou was arrested and Lei's company became the largest mobile phone manufacturer in China.

Perhaps, Lu Yao is the next business tycoon in China?
Reactions to Lu Yao's remarks varied both inside and outside the venue. Although friends in the gaming circle felt that Lu Yao was too green tea and pretentious, it had to be said that Lu Yao's actions were indeed particularly favorable.

But after Lu Yao bowed, he did not show any intention of ending the game conference.

He said to the camera again: "Of course, in order to promote the prosperity and development of domestic games, and for everyone to play more fun games in the future and add a lot of fun to everyone's life, our Guang'an Online Game Company has finally decided after unanimous discussion-"

“We will make our game’s patented “Dual Roulette Operating System” available to all game developers for free.”

As soon as Lu Yao finished speaking, many audience members were in an uproar.

The buzz of private discussions was so intense that the on-site radio was disrupted. The comments in the live broadcast rooms of major media platforms had just subsided a little, but then they broke out again:
"What the hell? Is our President Lu so ambitious?"

"Awesome Kras, my boss Lu!!"

"Some domestic game manufacturers should learn from this! All they do is change the skin and spend money."

Different from the excitement and emotion of most netizens, colleagues in the gaming industry, especially senior executives in the gaming industry, began to think about the deeper meaning of Lu Yao's actions after hearing the decision announced by Lu Yao.

Because these smart people understand better than anyone that there is no free lunch in this world.

If there is, the cost of this lunch will definitely be paid for in other ways.

The free ones are the most expensive!

Businessmen understand the value of this statement better than anyone else.

Why has Microsoft always allowed pirated systems to become popular? Why are many large companies willing to disclose their technical specifications? Why did Tesla later open source their technology? Is it because they are more Internet-sharing oriented?

of course not.

Just because doing so can gain greater benefits.

Only when the whole world is using your things can you establish your own rules.

Such an obvious truth, but later on those Tesla believers had the audacity to say that Tesla is the light of hope for mankind... They must be crazy.

But the situation is different when Lu Yao disclosed the patent of the dual-roulette operating system. Even if this operating system can establish the basic framework for future mobile game operations, it cannot bring any benefits to Shangnan Guangan.

After thinking about it more deeply, this group of smart people quickly understood.

Lu Yao's operations are not aimed at the future mobile game market, but simply at Penguin.

First of all, when more and more game manufacturers choose the free dual-disc operating system for game development, more and more similar games will surely be born at no cost. By then, Penguin will not only have to deal with Shangnan Guangan as a game company.

Secondly, once more players adapt to the dual-roulette operating system, if Penguin does not follow up, it will become an outlier in the mobile game market, and it will easily lose its competitiveness in the process of competing for players.

Once Penguin also uses the dual-roulette operating system...it would be equivalent to owing a favor to Nanguang'an and also owing a favor to Lu Yao.

If you want to use any dirty tricks to deal with people on Nanguangan in the future, the penguins will be a real jerk.

Penguin's reputation among players and netizens will further decline.

If it were just an ordinary gaming company, they might not care.

But Penguin is a listed Internet company, and its reputation and word of mouth among the majority of netizens are very important. This determines whether Penguin's stock will rise or fall, and therefore also determines the attitude of shareholders.

This is an open conspiracy.

Anyway, even if Lu Yao does not make the patent public for free, Penguin will just "take it from you".

Instead of doing this, it is better to go with the flow and do a favor, then use the things you are bound to lose to roast the penguin on the fire.

have to say.

Lu Yao’s operation was quite clever.

Mr. Ren, who was at home in Shenzhen, realized the deceitfulness of Lu Yao's words the moment he heard them during the live broadcast, and he couldn't help but laugh.

This young junior is really interesting.

Every step he has taken so far has been pretty good, and it really makes him happy to see such a person among the younger generation.

As the executives in the gaming industry guessed correctly, Lu Yao’s move was targeting Penguin. Anyway, he copied this dual-roulette operating system from the future, and Penguin would copy him anyway, so he might as well announce it openly.

Whether Penguin uses it or not, it will be very uncomfortable anyway.

This was the first punch Lu Yao threw at the penguin, but it was not the last punch Lu Yao threw at the penguin.

Then he announced at the press conference that after the game has been released for some time, a "Hundred Cities Competition" will be launched, and teams will be selected to form a mobile game competition. He also decided to take out 10 million in cash as a prize to give to the champion who makes it to the end.

This is to compete with Penguin in the field of professional e-sports.

This is the second punch. Next comes the third punch—

After Lu Yao announced the formation of the professional competitive league and the prize money, he once again said to the camera: "Although the game "Honor of Kings" we developed solved the problems of time and teammates, there is still a problem in front of everyone, that is, the current data charges are still too expensive."

Although 2015G has become popular in 4, the data traffic charges are still higher. If you want to have enough data traffic in a month, the phone bill will be at least 100 yuan.

Many smartphone users try to turn off data usage when they are outdoors.

This problem was not solved until the end of 2016, when Penguin and China Unicom jointly launched the "Penguin King Card" to reduce the cost of data traffic. The "Penguin King Card" has a minimum monthly rental of 19 yuan, and data traffic is paid for at your own expense at 1 yuan per GB per day. The super favorable agreement of free data traffic for Penguin software has relieved many users' data traffic anxiety.

This wave of operations can be described as a rare and magical operation by Penguin in the next few years.

It not only brings convenience to most mobile phone users, but also allows its own applications to be spread more widely. At the same time, the stock price has also soared, which to a certain extent establishes Penguin's position in the future.

At the same time, China Unicom, which cooperated with Penguin, also gained a large number of new users.

This wave of operations can be described as a win-win-win situation.

In order to facilitate this wave of cooperation, Penguin accurately found China Unicom among the three major operators. After several visits, it finally broke the ice and reached a cooperation between the two parties.

So Lu Yao copied this wave of operations exactly. He joined forces with Xiaomi and ByteDance to discuss and negotiate this matter with China Unicom. Originally, with the current size of Xiaomi and ByteDance, it was still very difficult to reach this wave of cooperation with China Unicom, one of the three major operators.

But the connections behind Lu Yao played a very important role in this wave.

Although the Rong family is now in hiding in China and its various industries have become dormant and low-key, the Rong family's influence overseas should not be underestimated. Even in China, no one can guarantee whether the family will make a comeback in the future.

So even if the three major operators were so arrogant, after Rong Nianqing brought Lu Yao, Xiaomi and Byte people to visit them in person, the other party hesitated for a while and finally agreed to this wave of cooperation.

In fact, China Unicom will definitely not lose money in this wave.

Lu Yao's connections and the future achievements of Xiaomi and ByteDance are enough to help China Unicom get out of its current predicament.

2015, the 4G era has been here for two years. In the past two years, China Mobile has become the first choice for many mobile phone users with its more stable and better data traffic, even if it is a little more expensive. China Telecom is catching up. With the sluggish user growth, China Unicom urgently needs innovative products to break the deadlock.

Therefore, it is actually very cost-effective to cooperate with Internet companies such as mobile phone manufacturers, content manufacturers and game manufacturers.

Xiaomi's smartphone shipments reached around 2014 million in . Even if some of these users are China Unicom users, if only % of Xiaomi users switch to China Unicom from other operators, China Unicom will see a surge in more than million users.

Tencent's Dawang Card only started contacting China Unicom in the fourth quarter of 2015, and then went online for a pilot in September 2016 to collect user feedback and repair some applications.

After Tencent launched the King Card, major Internet companies followed suit. Alibaba launched the "Alibao Card" and Baidu also launched the "Baidu Saint Card"... I don't understand why Baidu's names are so low.

In short, with this wave of operations, the Penguin application market increased by 20%, and China Unicom gained 5000 million new users within a year.

Later, even China Mobile and China Telecom launched the "China Mobile Flower Card" and "Mifen Card" one after another.

However, despite the first-mover advantage, the effect is not as awesome as the initial “Tencent King Card”.

And now...

Lu Yao accepted this future achievement.

Ever since he decided to start a tough battle with the Penguins last year, he has used every trick he can think of.

then.

At this moment.

Standing on the stage, Lu Yao solemnly announced: "We have joined hands with Xiaomi Group, ByteDance and China Unicom to launch mobile phone SIM cards with very affordable data rates for the majority of users! Its monthly package fee is only 19 yuan, and when using ByteDance, Xiaomi and Guang'an products on your mobile phone, the data is comprehensive!"

"Other providers' data charges are as low as 1 yuan per GB!"

After he finished speaking, he waved his arms. At this time, he really wanted to use Mr. Lei's "Bunker" to dub himself.

In fact, Lu Yao also wanted to invite Mr. Lei to announce the news, because the name of this package is called "Xiaomi King Card"!
But after the invitation was sent out, Mr. Lei declined.

It’s not that Mr. Lei is arrogant, but that Mr. Lei doesn’t want to steal Lu Yao’s limelight and wants to give all the traffic to Shangnan Guangan and Lu Yao.

The name of this package and SIM card, "Xiaomi King Card", is already an incredible amount of traffic and will be recorded in the history of Internet development. Lei himself is a figure with the aura of an Internet celebrity, and it will be easy for him to steal the show when he arrives at the scene.

Although there was no "ruok" blessing from Mr. Lei, after Lu Yao announced the third punch, the scene was in an uproar again, and the netizens who were watching the live broadcast became even more agitated.

The game is free, and the traffic for playing the game is also free?
Oh my god!

Is it so impressive?
Damn, this is simply happiness * 2 - double the happiness!

In an instant, countless netizens began to search for information about the "Xiaomi King Card", and Xiaomi users who were watching the live broadcast felt more proud than ever before.

In 2015, Apple mobile phones were very popular in China, and many users' love for Apple was almost to the point of fanatical belief. Even ten years later, devout Apple fans still spoke of Apple with piety on their faces, and even the Apple 15 and the castrated version of 16 were praised to the sky.

Even if it is the same color, it looks more advanced on Apple.

As for Xiaomi, a smartphone brand that got its start with a low-price strategy, Apple users are disdainful of it. They even stand on a higher level, arrogantly evaluating Xiaomi phone users as "dios".

This label once troubled Lei Jun very much, so later Xiaomi tried hard to promote itself as "the ultimate value for money, the ultimate enthusiast".

But it didn't work.

The first impression is very important, so the label is very difficult to remove.

Unless you do something sensational, it will be hard to reverse the first impression.

Ten years later, Xiaomi reversed its initial impression of dios by relying on new forces in car manufacturing; and now, thanks to Lu Yao's operations in the gaming circle, Mi fans' impression of it has finally changed.

Xiaomi has become the "firewood carrier for everyone" in the current Internet era!
What kind of value for money can be better than free?
When Lu Yao jointly launched this product with Xiaomi and ByteDance, Xiaomi, a mobile Internet company that got started with a low-price strategy, finally had a hint of great and glorious genes.

But it’s different from the excitement of netizens.

The faces of the friends who were watching the live broadcast turned pale.

broken!

This grandson is treating us like little devils! !
