Chapter 191 The big shock caused by a document

Looking at the document in front of him, Li Yi was also a little dazed.

China Games is really going to be in turmoil!
The document in hand is very thick, but after reading the first page, there is only one point to pay attention to, banning the steam platform.

This can be described as a killer feature for some small factories. At present, all stand-alone game manufacturers in China use domestic cloud, foreign steam, and two-line operation.

Because these two platforms contain most of the genuine stand-alone game players in China, and there are many experienced domestic stand-alone game users on the steam game platform.

In the past few years, the steam platform has also developed rapidly by taking advantage of the dividends of the Chinese game market.

However, as an overseas company, the Steam platform has always been outside of China. Although China has a large number of game users, it does not have to pay a penny of tax.

And because the steam platform is protected by international trade agreements, Chinese officials cannot control it.

However, it seems that this time, the higher authorities saw that the cloud game platform has matured, so they are going to kick the steam game out of the Chinese game market, although due to the reason of the international trade agreement, the steam platform cannot be directly sanctioned.

But there are still a lot of ways to limit him.

Just one move, and the fire is gone!

The major online trading platforms have removed the payment methods of the steam platform, and the bank cards other than Huaxia's non-international universal credit card have canceled the payment authority on the steam platform.

hiss!
How cruel!

Li Yikan was terrified.

Cruel or official cruelty.

Li Yi glanced at the official implementation date, 4.1, which is the first of next month.After this document is spread, I am afraid that the domestic stand-alone game industry will be shocked.

Of course, there is no mention of the steam platform in this document, because the statement in the document is "strike against illegal overseas game platforms", and this scope covers all foreign game platforms including the steam platform.

In fact, this has no effect on game manufacturers, and games can still be released on the steam platform.

But when the policy comes out, it is foreseeable that the number of Huaxia users on the steam platform will inevitably shrink significantly, and some Huaxia game companies mainly based on the steam platform will definitely suffer heavy losses.

Of course, this article is actually inconspicuous in the document.

After all, the Ministry of Culture is not guilty of issuing a document specifically for a game platform.

The real highlight is what comes next.

First, the Ministry of Culture joined hands with Tengfei Group, and the Ministry of Culture invested in the cloud game platform, a subsidiary of Tengfei Game Group, as a public-private partnership. Greatly enhance the credibility of the cloud game platform.

Second, the grading system that countless domestic players have been waiting for is finally here!

The domestic game industry and film and television industry have been looking forward to the classification system for a long time.

But everyone is arguing over whether the grading system should be produced by the government, or whether it should learn from the free market in the United States to incubate the grading system itself.

The government's production regulations are definitely inflexible and unsatisfactory.

But it is also unrealistic in China to completely imitate the United States and leave it to the free market to control incubation.

So here comes the solution.

It's very simple, a public-private partnership, where the government and Ascendas cooperate, can solve the rigid characteristics of the government's regulations, and with the government's endorsement, they will personally make fine-tuning in the game market to find the most suitable China's grading system, rather than a stick. All games that cross the line are killed.

And killing the foreign game platforms headed by the steam platform is to prevent these non-taxable companies from sucking blood from the Chinese game market, and by the way, attract the users of foreign platforms back to the Chinese market.

At the same time, under the document, there is also a list of imported games led by the cloud platform and reviewed by the Ministry of Culture.

Li Yi took a closer look and found that they were all game masterpieces from top foreign game companies.

Except for some games with bad views and extremely bloody violence, many well-known game masterpieces have appeared in it, and the game manufacturers have covered Japanese factories to Europe and the United States, as well as the world's top game manufacturers in other countries.

Looking at the dense list of imported games, as well as the introduction lists of many game manufacturers.

Li Yi's heart trembled, the Ministry of Culture was serious!

What can be seen in the future is that Huaxia Games may usher in a round of spring without the various invisible constraints overhead!
But before spring comes, major game companies have to think about how to live through the short winter before spring. The official persuasion and clearance of foreign game manufacturers is a cold winter for small companies.

But for the Lianshan game, the impact will not be too great.

Because 5% of Lianshan Games' current four games are on the cloud gaming platform, and as players on the steam platform return to the cloud, Lianshan Games will only lose [-] to [-]% of its marketing revenue at most, and will not be affected The game has had a huge impact.

And as the basic disk of stand-alone games is getting bigger and bigger, this part of the lost sales may be made up instead.

Below the document, Li Yi also noticed that, in addition to the cloud game platform, which is a semi-cooperative platform with the Ministry of Culture, the Ministry of Culture has opened up the application review of game platforms. After the application, the game platform is under the supervision of the Ministry of Culture, but the Ministry of Culture does not inject capital The end is not limited to Chinese or foreign manufacturers.

Li Yi looked at this rule and smiled softly.

The Ministry of Culture is not an investment company, so it only needs to hold onto the industry leader of the cloud gaming platform.

In addition, domestic and foreign manufacturers are not limited. This is a clear indication to foreign game platforms such as Steam platform.

If you want to make money, don't play tricks, obediently abide by the rules of the game formulated by Huaxia, and don't play with the banner of international trade protection laws to get money without paying taxes.

I believe that the steam game platform has already started to apply for entry into China, right?
But it will take a few months at the earliest after they apply and set up the Huaxia server.

With this time, the cloud game platform has grown into a behemoth long ago, lost the opportunity of time, and the foreign game platform, which was originally not acclimatized, may not be able to catch up even if it is flattering.

"The heart of playing tactics is black." Li Yi patted the document in his hand and smiled.

Half a year!

This is a golden age for the development of Huaxia game platform!

It is also an excellent historical opportunity!

After this time has passed, we have to face the cloud gaming platform that has become a behemoth and the entry of many major foreign companies.

Mao Sui’s platform can’t wait for him to get through the mobile and computer terminals. It needs to be launched as soon as possible. Otherwise, he will miss the user bonus that Huaxia game players return from abroad. If he wants to acquire users in the future, the cost will increase. I don’t know. how many times.

"Clash of Clans" can be launched together with the game platform, and the content of "Clash of Clans" can be directly filled into the game platform. After downloading, players can directly register an account on the platform and then enter the game.

But this kind of bundled download will disgust some players.

You can transfer the PC game to the mobile phone. Monument Valley itself has a mobile game development project. At that time, you can give a mobile version of "Monument Valley" to players who successfully register. It should be no problem.

Then gradually move "Famine", "Chinese Parents", and "Overcoming Difficulties with Benny Ford" to the mobile phone. Technically speaking, it is not difficult.

This should give the platform some head start for some time to come.

After Li Yi went through the company's plans for the future in his mind, he suddenly felt very tired.

"Why am I still so busy when I become the boss?" Li Yichang sighed.
