Chapter 1978: Still Don’t Understand
Chapter 1978 Still don’t understand
"Mellon Caravan" sued "Second World" in court on the grounds that its gaming interests had been illegally infringed, demanding compensation from "Second World". When the news came out, the industry was in an uproar. This is probably the world's first formal legal dispute arising from damage to online virtual property.
This matter was already attracting attention, but when many reporters found out that the "Mellon Caravan" was affiliated with the "Mellon Family", this small lawsuit immediately caused an uproar. The "Mellon Family", one of the top ten families in the United States, has assets that cannot be expressed in numbers at all.
"Second World", Lin Feng's personal assets are conservatively over 100 million US dollars. Both sides are giants, so a fight would be extremely lively. But will the "Mellon Family" gain the upper hand and demand compensation, or will Lin Feng be able to continue his magic and defeat the counterattack of the established family?
While the outside world was waiting to watch the show with great interest, Lin Feng held a press conference to explain the losses suffered by the "Mellon Chamber of Commerce" in the game.
"Originally, I didn't want to explain this matter, because there was no need to explain it at all. But since the 'Mellon Caravan' is the first caravan to appear in the game "War of the Worlds", it is not familiar with many rules of the game. , I think many people who want to set up a caravan are not familiar with it, so I specially held a press conference to explain it." Lin Feng said with a smile.
Many reporters looked at each other in shock. Seeing what Lin Feng meant, it seemed that the lawsuit between the two powerful figures could not be fought. If so, how boring it would be!
"First of all, "World War" is a completely free game. It has no so-called fixed rules. The system never forces players to do anything or do anything. Players are free to do everything in the game and everything is their own. Not only the player's behavior, but also all the behaviors of all the monsters in the game are given a little bit of intelligence and autonomous behavior by the "Nuwa" artificial intelligence. In other words, since the open beta of "World War", I The company will no longer be involved in the running of "World War", and everything will be left to the 'Nuwa' artificial intelligence. After all, this is a world-wide online game, and since it is the first online game with global unlimited Internet, it is fair and natural. It’s the first element,” Lin Feng said frankly.
! ——As a victim of this incident, Arroyo was naturally watching Lin Feng’s press conference. I was extremely annoyed that Lin Feng used "Nuwa" to explain fairness. Lin Feng's words stopped all his excuses. The "Nuwa" system has been launched a long time ago. Obviously Lin Feng had expected such a day. He just happened to be bumped into by Arroyo.
However, for Arroyo, filing a lawsuit against the "Second World" is a procedure and a means. All he did was bring down Lin Feng. If you want to bring down Lin Feng, you must first bring down "War of the Worlds". There are two ways to destroy "War of the Worlds". One is to make all players lose confidence in it and stop playing; the other is to crush the cash reserves of "War of the Worlds" through financial means.
It had to give up the game currency exchange system it promised.
The lawsuit was filed to dampen the popularity of "War of the Worlds" and see if it could take the first route. If that doesn't work, then the second method is to defeat the financial system of "War of the Worlds".
In view of the chain reaction caused by the first failure (after the Mellon Caravan suffered a devastating blow, its original country's warehouse was also robbed), it can be said that the first investment of 100 million US dollars was in vain. Returned), this time Arroyo prepared $100 million to enter "War of the Worlds" again. However, this time, after learning from the previous lesson, Arroyo will no longer engage in commercial activities between cities. After analysis by his staff, it is too risky to conduct transactions between cities now. It is better to conduct transactions between cities and nearby tribes honestly. Better. In this way, as long as you are willing to spend money, you can still monopolize the price of a city.
Of course, the profit from monopolizing a city's materials is very low, but Arroyo will not only do business in one city. This time, his "Mellon Caravan" will be spread throughout the United States. If the plan goes well, he will open "caravans" in major cities around the world. The profit in such a city is low, but the profits in thousands of cities combined will be enough to make Lin Feng unable to bear the consequences.
"Regarding game business, since this is a completely open world, you cannot expect other people to abide by the order in the real world, nor can you expect everyone to be polite, so if you want to ensure the safety of doing business, it is best to cultivate your own Instead of hiring a temporary escort, that would be unreliable!" Lin Feng advised.
"Mr. Lin, according to what you said, doesn't it mean that there is no so-called morality in games at all? Will such a game world without the rule of law poison young people?" A Western reporter stood up and asked.
This is a huge moral slap. If Lin Feng is not careful, he will be in big trouble.
"Poisoning teenagers? I want to ask, are pornographic books and periodicals poisonous? Why is "Playboy" so popular in the United States, and basically you can buy it no matter how old you are as long as you spend money. Are cigarettes poisonous? Then why no matter how old you are? Even at your age, you can always buy it?" Lin Feng asked loudly.
The Western reporter who asked the question was silenced and didn't know what to say. If Lin Feng talked about whether alcohol and drugs poison young people, he would still have something to say, but he really didn't know what to say about these two things. Because it is true that anyone can create gods and buy them at will, as long as you have money.
"As for whether "World War" is poisoning teenagers, I would like to clarify that although "World War" is a war game, it is not a pure war game. You can also create gods in it without starting wars or participating in wars, just to experience the hardships of human beings transforming nature, the hardships of our ancestors starting businesses, and the essence of war and peace. In addition, everything the players do in the game is their own behavior. As a country, it is impossible for me to restrict players. Let me say it again, the game is free, and the players are also free. They have the right to decide their own behavior without anyone's finger-pointing. Of course, I also hope that everyone can abide by the law, thank you!" Lin Feng said very sincerely.
No one can say anything more about this explanation.
"Finally, I want to say that the reason why World War can freely exchange currency is that I hope that those players with spare money can exchange more game coins to enjoy the spiritual pleasure and realize the regrets in your life in the game. And those poor players can make money by creating gods through games, and even support their families and have children through games. Therefore, games can definitely make money by creating gods, and it depends on whether you have brains." Lin Feng finished speaking, and the press conference was declared over.
When Lin Feng finished speaking, all the major financial groups in the world raised their heads slightly, looking at World War with a hint of doubt and uncertainty, hesitating whether to extend their tentacles into it. See if they can make money. After all, making money is what everyone wants to do. No one will refuse more money!
While everyone was hesitating, Arroyo had already started his overall plan. Many countries that have been fully built in the United States have the figure of "Mellon Caravan". "Mellon Caravan" instantly became the largest chamber of commerce in World War. After all, a one-time investment of US$100 million, such a huge amount of money, is no joke. Of course, after 100 million US dollars went into World War, only 900 million US dollars were left. The remaining 100 million US dollars was used to pay for the service fee. Arroyo was really distressed when he saw that another 100 million US dollars in service fees had been paid. He didn't feel bad about the money, but he felt bad that the money went into Lin Feng's pocket again. He came to make money, but now he has become a gift to Lin Feng.
Fortunately, the "Mellon Chamber of Commerce" is now slowly consolidating its power. When everything is on the right track, it is not an exaggeration to make a fortune every day. Of course, at present, this huge chamber of commerce is only fighting in major cities, and there is no intersection. At most, it is wandering around the surrounding areas centered on the city, and the coverage is not large. When the chamber of commerce forms a business network across the country in the future, that will be the time to really make money. That is enough to make Lin Feng feel distressed! If it becomes a global business network, it will be enough to make Lin Feng bankrupt!
"Boss, I think it's time for us to take action!" Soros' face has been flushed.
Since Arroyo took action again, Soros has been asking for a fight, but he was stopped by Lin Feng.
"Soros, don't make a move. Not yet. You are all masters. It's too early to make a move now. The market is small and it's meaningless. If you want to make a move, you have to wait until it becomes a trend and forms a market before making a move." Lin Feng said.
Soros pursed his lips, looking depressed.
"Boss, if you do this, will the 'Mellon Chamber of Commerce' become bigger? If it continues at this rate, the 'Mellon Chamber of Commerce' may become the largest chamber of commerce in "World War". The money they make then..." Abby Cohen calculated a number, and this number shocked him.
Lin Feng glanced at the amazing number calculated by Abby Cohen, but did not show any surprise.
"Abby, theoretically, if the 'Mellon Chamber of Commerce' becomes the largest chamber of commerce in the world, it can indeed make so much money, but in reality it can't make it! Not to mention that there will be many chambers of commerce competing with it, even if there are no chambers of commerce competing, he can't make it! Because he still doesn't understand "World War." " Lin Feng said confidently.
"Why?" The four asked puzzled.
"Why is the United States so overbearing? Why can American businessmen make all the money in the world and make all the countries in the world pay for Americans' American life?" Lin Feng asked back.
