“Blizzard’s Grand Theft Auto is really great!”

"Yes! Every expansion pack looks like a brand new game, a brand new world, love and doomsday."

“The sense of substitution in this game is simply no one else.”

"I'm going to Blizzard Carnival anyway! Looking forward to their new game!"

"My host is h-box, and I'm sorry that I won't participate in Blizzard Carnival."

"Haha, my host is HS4. Just participate in Blizzard Carnival. The most exciting thing is that there is a venue at your doorstep! Blizzard is so considerate!"

"I heard that even if you stay at home, you can participate in Blizzard Carnival by purchasing an authentic Blizzard game or owning an HS4 console."

"And this is the case? How to participate at home?"

"Blizzard will use VR technology to make the situation in more than a dozen venues in the DLC of "Grand Theft Auto". If there is VR-HS4, you can use VR to experience Blizzard Carnival in an immersive way. The demos you can download at the exhibition, and the DLC can also be directly downloaded. Even if there is no VR, you can experience Blizzard Carnival on the screen!"

"It's so awesome! Blizzard's technical level is really something that other game companies can't catch up with it!"

Netizens have discussed the two expansion packs of "Grand Theft Auto" and the Blizzard Carnival on the Internet.

...

Wang Qian used the DLC method of "Grand Theft Auto" to tell the world the truth about the Sandani, exposing the hypocritical fig leaf of the Western world, causing a sensation in the Western world, and leaving many Westerners who have always claimed to be chivalrous spirit without face.

Although some Westerners have reflected on this matter, more Westerners...even some celebrities in the game industry are very angry at Wang Qian.

Among them is a director in charge of hosting business of Microhard Group: Carverty.

In a CNN episode, when the host asked him what he thought about the 'slander' and cultural infiltration of Westerners in Grand Theft Auto: Sandani, Carverty called the Chinese people junk, and said that they were basically a gang of mobs and thugs, just like the past fifty years.

The host then asked Carverty: "Are you afraid of affecting Microhard's sales in the Chinese market?"

Carverty laughed: "What's the sale in the thief's nest? They'll only steal micro-hard intellectual property."

As soon as Carverty's remarks came out, public opinion in China could not help but be uproared, and the people across the country were extremely angry and strongly demanded that Carverty and Microhard Company publicly apologize.

Unlike the last Camacho incident, Carverty refused to apologize, while Microhard Company remained silent.

At a reception, a reporter stopped Carverty and asked about the last remarks aroused the anger of public opinion in China, what he had, whether he would apologize to the Chinese people, or something like that.

"What I said is true, why should I apologize?" Carverty answered the reporter's inquiry, and it seemed that he had no regrets about what he said.

After the incident of Carverty insulting China, Chinese and foreign Chinese groups were extremely angry. Even if Carverty apologized, Chinese people would not forgive him. He never thought he had no regrets at all, which also angered Chinese at home and abroad. More Chinese people condemned Carverty and Weihard on Weibo and foreign forums, and public opinion became more and more popular about this incident.

But Weihar and Carverty still didn't make any noise. It was obvious that they didn't care much about the Chinese market, so they didn't take Chinese people seriously at all.

At this moment, Blizzard suddenly issued an announcement.

The first item of the announcement is that more than a dozen DLCs of "Grand Theft Auto" will be released tomorrow.

Players all over the world cheered after seeing this announcement. This is simply a festival for players!

The second item of the announcement is that due to the incident of micro-hard insulting China, Blizzard decided to suspend cooperation with micro-hard h-box, h-box720, and the upcoming h-boxone series console platforms. The DLC of "Grand Theft Auto" released tomorrow will not cover micro-hard h-box series console platforms, and all games will no longer cover micro-hard h-box series console platforms in the future.

Unless... Weihard and Carverty apologize to all Chinese people, and have enough sincerity.

In this life, Nisso occupied 36 and 7% of the console market, while Microhard occupied 32 and 3% of the console market. It is the two giants in the console market. The other 30% of the shares are occupied by several other game console manufacturers, but none of them pose a threat to Nisso and Microhard.

Ten years ago, the console market was almost the dominant one, occupying more than 70% of the console market. Microhard comes from behind, taking advantage of its capital advantages and operating system advantages, and has attracted a large number of game manufacturers to seize the majority of the share of the hs series. It took eight years to push the h-box series to the second place in the host market, and it may surpass Nisso's hs series at any time.

Nisso saw that the console market was eroded, but it was powerless. Whether the console was selling well depends mainly on whether the exclusive game was attractive enough. The reason why many people bought the console was because of those exclusive games that could not be played on other platforms.

After Blizzard acquired Nisso, it announced that it would terminate its cooperation with Micro Hard, and it is certainly understandable to support its own console platform. In addition, when Blizzard's Blizzard Carnival and Longke Game Exhibition head-on, Micro Hard chose to support its old partner Cologne Game Exhibition and refused to participate in Blizzard Carnival, which undoubtedly made Blizzard very upset.

Coupled with this insulting China incident, it is reasonable for Wang Qian to suspend cooperation with micro-hard.

Don't you apologize? OK, I will impose economic sanctions on you!

After the announcement of Blizzard Company was released, Micro Hard immediately responded to an announcement.

"We are very disappointed with the choice of Blizzard. Games are e-sports sports, and it is a very naive practice to impose political views on sports. Blizzard's suspension of cooperation and micro-hardness will damage both parties' interests. The h-box series is a very mature hosting platform with a high market share. Blizzard's suspension of cooperation, and the one that suffers more is Blizzard's own, not the h-box platform. Here we advise some upper-level members of Blizzard to not be too harsh to do things that make them regret."

"I would like to also notify that Microhard Company will exhibit our latest console: h-boxone at Longke Game Exhibition, which is an epoch-making console. It will start accepting reservations tomorrow. Anyone who booked a new console before the Game Exhibition will receive a game gift package worth 1,000 US dollars! In the future, we will also strive to make more and better exclusive games to dedicate them to players who have always supported us."

The announcement from Microhard Company is obvious, and she is very disdainful of Blizzard's actions and has no intention of apologizing for the insult of China. In addition, she also advertises their new consoles.

The h-boxone of Microhard Company has been brewing for a long time, and its performance is slightly higher than that of HS4, which was launched half a year ago. It was launched at this time to continue to compete with HS4 for the game console market.

Microhard is far inferior to Microsoft in this life. Game consoles are the most important profit growth point for Microhard at present. They have made huge investments, research and development, advertising, hardware production, etc. in the early stage, with a total investment of billions of dollars. At least 5 million h-boxone consoles must be sold to recover the cost.

However, I don’t worry about recovering the cost at all. You should know that h-box720 is very successful. In a few years, a total of 85.37 million consoles have been sold worldwide. With such a huge loyal consumer group, the sales volume will definitely exceed this number, right?

The confidence of Microhard is so confident in sales is supported by historical data. When HS console was launched, it was the only one that dominated the market for several years. Microhard first entered the console market, and the sales of the first generation of Hbox reached 24.65 million units, but at that time, the sales volume of the main competitor HS2 was far different. At that time, the total sales volume of HS2 hosts was 157.68 million.

Because of the first-generation host of hs, the hs2 host is deeply rooted, and it looks like an insurmountable mountain in front of hbox.

Then Weihard launched h-box720. h-box720 creatively added two rockers to the gamepad, transplanting all three traditional games of gun cartball on the computer to their h-box720, making h-box720 a success, selling a total of 85.37 million units. Their competitor hs3 sold only 86.29 million units during the same period.

From the sales of 157.68 million hs2 hosts, it can be seen that what h-box720 seizes is the market share lost by hs3.

If it weren't for the quality problems of the three reds in h-box720, HS3 had a chance to breathe and regained a part of the market share. In this battle between the h-box host platform and the hs host platform, Micro Hard undoubtedly won overwhelmingly.

In the era when h-box720 and hs3 were confronting each other, microhard has always been the leader in the game console industry. h-box has produced an achievement system, hs has produced a trophy system. h-box live is the first large-scale host network platform, and h-box720 era has developed it on a large scale, and then Nisso launched the psn service;

Microhard first develops XBLA independent games, and then Nisso developed PNS independent games; Microhard first produced the rocker concave and trigger key design, and then Nisso developed the rocker concave and trigger key design... From these perspectives, the h-box720 and hs3 generations are actually Microhard leading Nisso forward.

Everyone can see that if the micro-hard host does not have the quality problems of Sanhong, it is now the well-deserved industry leader in the host market. The new host h-boxone has been developed for several years, with huge investment and excellent performance. Once launched, it will definitely force the hs4 host to a dead end.

The sales target set by Microhard Company for H-boxone is...more than 100 million units, or even more than 150 million units of PSS hosts, completely driving Nisso's HS series out of the host market.
Chapter completed!
