Chapter 184

　　Once "Minecraft" was released, many players who liked this type of survival construction game were ecstatic, and the popularity of the game was even higher.

　　Later, with the announcement of Fangzheng's 'Game Kingdom' plan, the enthusiasm of the players was completely mobilized.

　　Whether it's for the [-] yuan bonus, or to see the buildings you designed in reality, in short, the players of "Minecraft" are completely crazy.

　　The most intuitive response is how long players have been online. According to statistics from the technical department on the server set up by Fangzheng, more than [-]% of players on the server have been online for more than [-] hours.

　　And more than [-] percent of those players are online overnight.

　　This statistic made Fang Zheng secretly smack his tongue. Sure enough, the perseverance of the players is endless.

　　"Do I count as a group of liver emperors that I cultivated?"

　　The term "Liver Emperor" actually initially referred to those players who frantically swiped quests for game rewards, but later the meaning of the word was extended.

　　Now it is mostly used to refer to those players who play games like crazy, because they spend a lot of time and experience playing games, stay up all night and hurt their liver, and get 767.

　　At this time, the players in "Minecraft" seem to be shifting towards this trend.

　　"Fang Dong, some computer peripheral manufacturers have come to our door recently and want to cooperate with us."

　　Just thinking about it, Han Shiyu came to Fangzheng's office with a helpless expression on her face.

　　Although in-game advertising is nothing new in the mainstream game market, the halls are different.

　　Palace's own games also have advertisements, but the advertisements are all for their own Palace.

　　Just like some maps in Overwatch, the billboards above are good advertising spots.

　　At the beginning, many companies approached the door and wanted to cooperate with the palace, but Fangzheng refused all of them.

　　In Fangzheng's words, his own advertising space can only be used for his own use.

　　The original Fantasia bought "FlappyBird" and became the only advertising space sold in the hall. Since then, no advertising space has been sold.

　　And now, many computer peripheral manufacturers have come to the door, eyeing the game "Minecraft".

　　In particular, some rat (bgad) label manufacturers are extraordinarily positive.

　　"what happened?"

　　Fang Zheng frowned when he heard this. Why are these computer peripheral manufacturers coming to join in the fun?

　　"It's like this..."

　　Han Shiyu told Fang Zheng what she had learned.

　　After Fang Zheng heard this reason, he couldn't help laughing and crying.

　　Should it be said that these peripheral manufacturers are indeed shrewd businessmen?Can you find this opportunity?

　　The cause of the matter is actually very simple, and it is inseparable from the game "Minecraft".

　　Minecraft is originally a survival construction game, and construction requires a large number of basic blocks. To build a building, players need to perform frequent operations.

　　And this is very strict on the mouse requirements of players. It can be said that a game like "Minecraft" has seriously increased the frequency of players clicking the mouse.

　　With Fangzheng's announcement of his 'Game Kingdom' plan, players have turned into liver emperors one after another, and their mouse is even more overwhelmed.

　　This is why those peripheral manufacturers will come to the door.

　　After understanding the whole story, Fangzheng didn't know what to say. Playing this kind of construction game really tested the quality of the mouse.

　　He still remembered that when he played "Minecraft" in his previous life, he also changed two mice. He had to click the mouse for mining and click the mouse for construction.

　　That kind of click frequency does consume some mouse life.

　　"Reject it, lest players put forward any conspiracy theories, saying that my development of "Minecraft" was negotiated with these mouse manufacturers."

　　Fang Zheng smiled bitterly and said half-jokingly.

　　It is unavoidable that there are advertising spaces in the games of the palace, but still the same sentence, leave your own advertising space for the palace, and others will not think about it.

　　Moreover, with the ability of the hall, it also looks down on those advertising income.

　　At the same time, on the other side, because of Founder's 'Game Kingdom' plan, many players formed a small group to build and design a building together.

　　These team players communicate with each other and learn from each other. The efficiency is much faster than that of one person, and it is much faster.

　　"Gan, I can't help it anymore. I've been playing for [-] hours in a row. Brothers, I'll take a break first."

　　"I can't take it anymore, I have to squint for a while."

　　"I can still persevere, but the mouse is not working well, so I'm going to buy a new mouse."

　　"Me too, it's too much of a mouse."

　　"I finally realized the sinister intentions of the old thief Fang~"

　　On the Internet, many player exchange groups are discussing this issue.

　　Either someone is talking about how long they have been online, and their body can't bear it, or they are discussing which brand of mouse is easy to use and which brand of mouse is of good quality.

　　The crazy behavior of the players seems to be insane.

　　When people encounter something they like, they can't help but fall into it and cannot extricate themselves, especially for players.

　　When you come across a game you like, you can't wait to play it in one go.

　　However, this kind of game behavior is not worth advocating. The essence of the game is to entertain the public and to make players happy and relaxed. This kind of game behavior of the 'Liver Emperor' is somewhat reversed.

　　Although it is said that this is the freedom of the players, Fangzheng still notified the technical department for any unnecessary trouble.

　　It means to supervise the players on the server. If a player has been online for more than [-] hours in a row, it will forcibly restrict the other party from continuing to play on the server.

　　Not to mention anything else, Fang Zheng's heart throbbed when he saw the terrifying online time of the player.

　　He was really afraid that these players had poor physical fitness and died suddenly.

　　As for whether the player will continue to play single player after being kicked, that is not something Fang Zheng can manage.

　　He has done everything he can, and if the player continues to play single player, there is nothing he can do.

　　With Fangzheng's notice, the technical department quickly implemented it, forcing a large number of players to exit the server.

　　In order not to misunderstand the players, the official blog of the Palace Games also specially released a Weibo, reminding the players to pay attention to rest.

　　In this regard, the players are a little stunned. It is the first time they have heard that a game company will limit the player's game time.

Chapter 185

　　In mid-December, the headquarters of the Palace Game Company, the chairman's office.

　　"Fang Dong, there is a call from President Ren. The registration for the Global Game of the Year competition is about to start. Let's prepare."

　　At the beginning, Fangzheng bought a large piece of land from the Game Regulatory Commission in the name of participating in the global annual best game selection competition, and started his own 'Game Kingdom' plan.

　　Now that time has passed, the global game of the year competition has also begun to sign up.

　　Ren Yanghe naturally came to inform Fangzheng and asked him to prepare.

　　"What are the specific details of the game?"

　　Fangzheng knew that such a day would come, so he wasn't too surprised.

　　The global game of the year selection competition generally gives the results in January of each year, and announces the winners list. Registration starts at this time, and the time is also in the past.

　　"Applicants to the Global Game of the Year Selection Contest must bring their own or cooperatively developed games. There is no limit to the number of games. According to the game, the organizer of the competition will classify them."

　　"In each category, the top three best games will be selected...-"

　　With Han Shiyu's narration, Fang Zheng also understood the importance of this global annual best game selection-contest.

　　The Global Game of the Year Contest is a worldwide competition, no matter which region or country you are in.

　　This time, the organizer of the global game of the year selection competition is in Neon, not far from the Xia Kingdom.

　　The reason why the Global Game of the Year Contest is an important competition is entirely because of its nature and rewards.

　　This competition is jointly organized by many countries. If you want to participate in this game competition, you must agree to some of the regulations inside.

　　If any country violates the regulations, it will receive sanctions from the global game industry.

　　The composition of the organizers also created the fairness and authority of the competition.

　　To Fang Zheng's silent nod, in any competition, fairness comes first. If the minimum fairness cannot be achieved, then the competition is meaningless.

　　Secondly, what he values ​​most is the reward of the game.

　　The reason why the Global Game of the Year competition has driven so many game companies and designers crazy is that its rewards are too attractive.

　　The game industry in this world is very important, and many countries take it very seriously, and the protection of local games is naturally in place.

　　In this case, if a foreign game wants to be released, it needs to go through layers of review and pay high taxes.

　　The reward of the global game of the year competition is that the winning game can reduce or exempt the tax that needs to be paid when the overseas version is released.

　　This reduction is only for the top three entries in each category. The first entry will receive [-]% of the tax when it is released overseas, the second place will be [-]%, and the third place will be [-]%. .

　　In addition to meeting taxes, there are other convenient policies to help award-winning works release games overseas.

　　This rule is recognized by all members of the organizer of the competition, and no member state shall prevent the award-winning works from being released locally.

　　And this is the main reason that makes the majority of game companies or designers crazy.

　　Knowing this, Fang Zheng was silent in his heart.
