Rebirth: I Carry A Desktop Computer Inside Me - #49 - Chapter 49: My Game Actually Became More Popular Due To Online Spats

Ascendas Corporation Headquarters.

“Maitreya” Buddha Zhao Ziyang is reporting to director Liu Zhicheng on his trip to Kyoto and Magic City, talking about the acquisitions of Maple Fire Technology, Magic City Origin Games and other games with added embarrassment.

“… (Maplefire Technology) is a small company with less than ten people, renting an office building of more than 100 square meters.” Zhao Ziyang reported on the visit, “They rejected our acquisition conditions the next day.”

Liu Zhicheng sat with his legs crossed and frowned, “Haha, a small company can be so tough.”

“We were a little tough at first, but the next day their boss Jiang Cheng made an appointment with us for dinner and said he wanted to cooperate.”

“What cooperative law?”

“They don’t sell “Subway Runner”, but he said that he has an idea about brain power that he wants to cooperate with us to develop.” Zhao Ziyang clicked, “Jiang Cheng at the dinner table was quite polite. He probably still didn’t want to offend us, Tengfei.”

Liu Zhicheng’s face turned ugly, “It would be too naive to want to cooperate with us just because of an idea. Since they are stubborn, let’s see how long they can be tough.”

Zhao Ziyang hesitated to speak, but still didn’t say anything.

The trend is like this, why do you do it?

As soon as Zhao Ziyang left, Liu Zhicheng reported the situation to the vice president of operations over the phone.

“…It’s just a small company. I suggest that the company’s mobile game project group immediately start the development of similar games and at the same time provide necessary suppression.”

“I will seriously consider your suggestion. Regardless of acquisition or not, the company has already started research and development, so you don’t have to worry.”

“clear.”

Liu Zhicheng is aware of the speed of the company’s response (cross out, copycat).

Can a little grasshopper climb up to the sky?

—-◑﹏◐—-

Maplefire Network Technologies.

“It’s not good, it’s not good! Mr. Chen, there are suddenly a lot of comments and news on the Internet that slander our game.” After Chen Canghao discovered the relevant situation, he immediately rushed to report the situation to Chen Feng.

Chen Feng was a little unhappy, “Why are you so panicked? It’s out of shape.”

After all, Chen Canghao had just become a person in charge from a programmer, and he still had a lot of immaturity. At this moment, he calmed down and said, “Mr. Chen, look…”

Chen Feng flipped through it briefly, and his face turned dark.

[“”Subway Runner” is suspected of plagiarism? Games shouldn’t be so willful!”

“The source code is suspected to be leaked, and “Escape of the Gods” has been launched in a hurry.”

…

In the reviews of game downloads, there were suddenly many one-star negative reviews.

“It promotes bad tendencies and is suspected of inducing illegal activities.”

“Plagiarism dogs get screwed.”

“It’s not fun at all, I just want to make money.”

…

“Call Director Li over.” After all, Chen Feng had experienced the situation. Although he was a little anxious at this time, there was still no chaos.

“good.”

However, before he could go out, Li Silin also knocked on the door and came in.

“Mr. Chen, online…”

“Just in time, I want to talk to you about this too.” Chen Feng then said, “Director Li, please contact the relevant media immediately to strengthen positive publicity. At the same time, contact the intermodal platform and distribution channels to help delete malicious comments.”

“Okay, I’ll make arrangements right away.” Li Silin nodded.

“Canghao, don’t be too anxious, just continue to do a good job in operation and maintenance.”

“clear.”

As soon as the two left, Chen Feng immediately called Jiang Cheng to report.

“What’s up?”

“Mr. Jiang, a large number of malicious comments have suddenly appeared on the Internet, as well as articles that slander our “Metro Run” for alleged plagiarism. I suspect that someone is behind it, and I have asked Director Li to contact the media and channels for public relations.”

Jiang Cheng, who had just finished a circuit design and felt a sense of accomplishment, was in a bad mood again, and several objects of suspicion flashed through his mind.

Is it taking off?

Or is it the just-released “Escape of the Gods”, a masterpiece of a Chinese-operated game company?

“Financial expenditure of 500,000 yuan for emergency public relations.” Jiang Cheng ordered, “Don’t worry, everyone. A good game will not be tripped up by these trivial matters.”

Chen Feng responded, “Don’t worry, Mr. Jiang, I will calm everyone’s emotions and will not affect the company’s normal operations.”

After hanging up the phone, Jiang Cheng tapped his fingers on the table.

The person who came here is not kind!

Originally, Jiang Cheng wanted to cooperate with Tengfei on the game Brain Master, but he didn’t know that the other party had no intention of cooperation at all, and instead started working on it directly.

Jiang Cheng gently closed his eyes and entered the desktop of the computer inside his body.

I opened the browser and looked at some vaguely popular “plagiarism” incidents.

After quickly editing a crawler program, Jiang Cheng set several keywords such as “subway cool run” and “plagiarism” and started searching.

The earliest record was quickly found.

“19:23:16 pm on May 23, 2012.” Jiang Cheng looked at it and felt a little strange, “Canglang Weibo?”

Keep chasing!

No one knows that Jiang Cheng has also learned extensively about hacking.

And through the efficient attempts of the computer in the body, the level is not bad.

Soon, Jiang Cheng quickly determined that the blogger was from the United States by tracking the IP address of recent posts by the blogger “Sweet Air”.

An American Chinese.

I then checked some of the articles forwarded from him, from copying and pasting at the beginning to making up nonsense at the end, but the first few objects were discovered.

The faint line points to the Canglang gaming platform of China.

The intermodal transportation platform of “Gods Escape” in China.

This is somewhat interesting.

And looking at the contents of the series of articles, most of them are vaguely mentioning the game “Gods Escape”.

Jiang Cheng understood something in his heart.

It’s probably because the game “Gods Escape” was released on both Fruit and Android at the same time. This means someone is paying trolls to hack themselves!

Jiang Cheng immediately called Chen Feng and asked them to change their focus and start an online spat with “Gods Escape”.

[“The first line of code for “Subway Cool Run” was announced in November 2011, the originator of cool running games!” – Canglang News

“Shameless act! The plagiarist sues the original!”

“I would like to warn the other party not to take plagiarism seriously!”

…

Coupled with the positive propaganda from online trolls, online public opinion was confused for a while.

I can’t figure out which one is plagiarized.

It’s better to download it and take a look, and let me, a “fair person”, judge it.

A public opinion suddenly turned into a dispute between originality and plagiarism between Chinese games and American games.

And it is obvious that most Chinese people support Chinese games.

Except for a few kneeling tribesmen.

“The number of downloads of our game is going to explode.” Looking at the background, the operation and maintenance manager Chen Canghao was extremely excited.

The total downloads from various channels exceeded 20 million times!

The average daily number of online visitors reached over 10 million at its peak!

The servers are a bit overwhelmed.

Fortunately, this game server does not take up much resources.

It’s just about uploading and checking dozens of core data after players play.

However, what Jiang Cheng did not expect was that the online scolding continued for half a month. Jiang Cheng’s “Subway Run” game became even more popular, and the download data of “God Escape” also became popular.

Both games are very classic and not exactly similar.

The audiences overlap, and many play both games.

No one loses.

Eh! So who loses?
