Build a game empire from scratch

The launch of Terraria is not only the excitement of a country in Daxia.

All overseas players who can successfully connect to the Yunmeng server are participating in this grand event.

Among them, there is a special country that even made it to the country's hot trend list for playing Terraria.

Moreover, it is with the keyword general strike.

That's right, that country is Germany.

Today is the day Karl called for a national strike online.

Just because of the 7-hour time difference, when the general strike started, it was already 4 pm in Daxia, and Terraria had been online for two hours.

Of course, the players of Great Xia are not in the mood to continue to go overseas and instigate a magic war.

——Although there is no magic war of this level in Daxia, the skill of butting a hat is a traditional skill that has been passed down for thousands of years.

Now it is just a combination of the characteristics of the new era, and the old work is reorganized.

Therefore, although the netizens in Daxia have not experienced such outrageous magic battles in reality, they are not much inferior to the battle-tested overseas netizens when they really play.

Of course, it may also be because Daxia netizens are too far away, watching the fire from the other side, not afraid of being affected by reality...

In short, after the afternoon, not only the player circle, but also the hot spots on the Internet in Daxia revolved around Terraria. The news of the overseas strike fell out of favor in an instant.

All the spirit of internationalism has been left behind.

Anyway, no one wants to hinder everyone from playing the new game.

But the general strike is still going on as normal.

However, although Karl and the others lacked the support of public opinion from netizens in Daxia—if Gonghuo really counted as support, they had the subtle support of Yunmeng's behind the scenes.

Under Lin You's instruction, the negotiation between Kelibri Game Company and Yunmeng reached a deadlock.

René Brie found that Yunmeng was completely out of favor, and other local game companies in the country also began to try to get through the government's joints, hoping to replace him.

In a panic, he resolutely gave up the request for data sharing in order to reach a cooperation with Yunmeng as soon as possible.

But unfortunately...

late.

This time, Yunmeng refused to agree.

Of course, there was no direct rejection.

Zhong Chang, as an important person of Yunmeng and a real high-level executive, took time out of his busy schedule to take René Brie to taste Chinese cuisine in the metropolis, and finished eating five major cuisines in two days.

In the middle, I took him to visit and inspect the [Virtual Xiajing] under construction.

The location of [Virtual Xia Jing] has already been done, and the scenery is enough.

However, if you want to refine the interior scenes of a large number of buildings in a modern city, the time and energy required are almost unlimited.

So much so that Lin You pondered: Anyway, you can't finish it in a while, why don't you find some people to do something else.

He is planning to take away one-third of the skilled workers to build a new city: Luoyang.

But it's not the current Luoyang, but——

[God City] Luoyang!

After watching the virtual Xia Jing, Zhong Chang finally finished his landlord friendship and gave Rene a relatively certain message:

Next Monday, let's discuss the details.

Yunmeng's operation directly destroyed the German government's plan to cancel the general strike by having reached a cooperation with Yunmeng.

This is still one of them. At best, it can only ensure that those who have planned to participate in the strike will not give up.

As for the more important second point, it is purely coincidental-that is the launch time of Terraria.

When Terraria went live, it was exactly 7 am in Germany.

The German players, who have just been exposed to virtual reality games for a short time, are at the top of the game, waiting every minute for the game to go online.

Among them, there are a large number of players who originally did not intend to participate in the strike.

Although they yell fiercely on the Internet, as we all know, people who are fierce on the Internet do not mean that they are also fierce in reality-many people even behave completely opposite on the Internet and in reality.

The plan of these people is to get up early, play a new game for an hour, and then go offline to go to work.

The problem is: many people forget the time when they are playing...

Because Terraria maintains the design style of the open world with weak guidance, this gives players enough freedom and inevitably slows down the player's wasteland development process.

Players can only study many details of the game through the system introduction of various items, plus NPCs, especially what the guide said.

The problem is, the number of items in Terraria is very large, and the treasures and garbage are mixed together, and it is extremely difficult to distinguish when you first get started.

The green-quality garbage weapons are mixed with the white-quality key prop synthesis materials, and no one knows which ones are useful and which ones are useless.

【Poisonous Stinger】, 【Vine】and 【Jungle Spore】three white materials can be combined to synthesize the orange-quality weapon 【Grass Sword】, this outrageous synthesis formula, who would have thought of it in advance if they hadn't seen it directly?

And there are countless things like this in the game...

So I can only save as much as possible, regardless of good or bad.

As a result, it was inevitable that a lot of time was spent on organizing warehouses and researching synthesis tables.

Then every time they synthesize new useful props, they will get a full sense of accomplishment.

Coupled with a large number of explorable areas, hidden treasure chests, traveling merchants who come and go, and new NPCs who are constantly stationed...

There are so many playable content in the game that they are overwhelmed!

When I look back, I find that the working hours have arrived, and many people even find that they are already late.

Looking at the half-dug mine, the half-explored cave, and the half-battled boss...

A large number of players have changed their minds and used the excuse of supporting the general strike to persuade themselves to take a day off and play games at home.

And the current scale of Yunmeng's players in Germany is in the millions!

Ever since, the largest strike in German history has begun!

Even in the government's worst assessment, the expected number of strikes did not exceed 100,000.

But on this day, the players who asked for leave for various reasons, played games at home, and supported the general strike in disguise, far exceeded their expectations, and may even exceed several times or ten times!

The only good news is:

These people are scattered all over the country and are distributed in different industries. They will not act in a concentrated manner like the strike organized by the guild, which will directly cause the daily operation of a certain area to be directly paralyzed.

In the afternoon, the German Federal Cyber ​​Security Agency, which had obtained more detailed data, held a special meeting.

At the beginning of the meeting, someone mentioned uneasily: If Yunmeng wants to launch a public opinion offensive against us, or even a color revolution in the new era, can we stop it?

This question directly plunged the conference room into an embarrassing silence.

This is exactly the reason for organizing this meeting - Yunmeng's influence is already irreversible, even if the server construction continues, it will only affect the game experience of domestic players, and cannot prevent them from logging into the virtual world.

Therefore, they must formulate an effective strategy to deal with a super platform that connects almost all major countries in the world, has hundreds of millions of users, has no language barriers, and is almost impossible to control!

The most frightening thing is: this super platform has already taken shape, and it has reached the point where all governments in the world have to face it squarely!

By this time, the chief was even a little envious of America.

At least under America's most stringent countermeasures, not to mention servers and games, Yunmeng even had a Mirage host to be stopped by the customs.

As a result, Yunmeng is only famous in their country, without any real influence.

Although the American government was scolded miserably by its own citizens, at least it would not be like them, completely helpless in the face of possible future risks.

But that's the end of the matter, and it's useless to regret.

They are the Federal Cyber ​​Security Agency and must take responsibility. This responsibility not only requires them to notice risks earlier than others, but also requires them to think of countermeasures in advance.

After a moment of silence, someone finally spoke——

Can you let Lin You emigrate here?

Hearing this, the director looked at the speaker in disbelief, and asked in surprise:

You go out today, don't you have a brain?
