My 1999

After a short time, Xie Wen came back, but his expression changed.

"What's wrong?"

"I just received a call from the Beijing Cultural and Educational Office, asking us to stop the operation of "Legend 1 Overlord War"." Xie Wen said solemnly.

Xu Liang's heart thumped.

"Why?"

"They said they received reports from the public that our game misled young people and had a very bad social impact, so they have temporarily suspended the service and will decide whether to open it after they investigate clearly."

Xu Liang's face darkened.

My mind couldn't help but think of the scene when I met Xiong Xiaoge two days ago.

"is it him?"

He wasn't sure either. I just vaguely feel that the other party is the most likely.

Of course, it could also be Bai Du.

But if it were Li Yanhong, such a trump card would have been used when Bing Ying and Bai Du started the war, and there was no need to wait until now.

Xu Liang thought for a while, "Contact the Yangchao County Government immediately. We are also large taxpayers after all. If they can't protect our legitimate interests, then why are we setting up our headquarters here?"

"Then our game...?"

"Official operation, the impact of stopping the service will be too bad."

Xie Wen nodded and quickly went to make a call.

It didn't take long before he came back.

"How to say?"

"They said that the order was issued by the city, and they are also fighting for us, but there is no result yet."

Xu Liang nodded, and after hesitating for a moment, he took out his cell phone and dialed.

The phone rang for a while and was quickly connected.

"Hey, who's there?"

"Prefect Jiang, I am Xiao Xu from New Dream."

"Oh, I remembered it. Xiao Xu, how is your new dream developing recently?"

"Very good. Since your inspection, our company's business has been booming. Now the number of students nationwide has exceeded 7,000."

"That's a lot, but the more students there are, the more attention we have to pay attention to the teaching level."

"Don't worry, we will definitely pay close attention to teaching, but we probably won't be able to listen to your teachings in the future."

"what happened?"

"We plan to move the company headquarters to Magic City or Pengcheng."

"Why?"

"That's right. I also have a high-tech company that produces games and Internet searches under my command. Recently, our company developed a very popular game and made a little more money. As a result, it became the target of many companies and media.

I don’t think this game has been around for a day or two. In the past, when games developed by other companies were relatively popular, there were a lot of criticisms. Game companies have never received such an administrative order.

But the order was given and we decided to obey it.

But our company still needs to develop, and we will develop other better games in the future.

Therefore, I plan to move the company to the south, where there is more support for high-tech industries. "

After a pause, Xu Liang continued.

"When Hongmeng Company moves, New Dream will also have to move. Otherwise, with two headquarters in the south and one in the north, the management cost will be too high."

"When did this incident you are talking about happen?"

Jiang Weiguo's voice came over.

"We just received the notification this morning."

"Okay, I get it."

Finished.

Bang, hung up the phone.

Xu Liang put away his phone.

Although I didn't get the promise, there is a high probability that I don't have to worry about this matter.

Looking back at Xie Wen, and the curious look in his eyes.

"The last time Governor Jiang of the capital went to inspect New Dream, I left a phone number."

Xie Wen gave a thumbs up in admiration.

"Haha, go get busy. Suppress all those messy criticisms for me."

After Xie Wen nodded, he hurried away.

The smile on Xu Liang's face gradually faded.

He never expected that this matter would become such a big deal.

Li Yanhong definitely doesn't have such ability.

IDG and Kleiner Perkins Caufield \u0026 Byers are indispensable behind this.

"IDG, Xiong Xiaoge, when it comes to financing New Dream, I won't let you bleed. My surname is Wei."

For the sake of IDG's Tencent equity, he had to agree to let IDG participate in New Dream's Series A financing. The contract is written in black and white, and any breach of contract requires liquidated damages.

But no matter how strict a contract is, there is still room for maneuver.

——

"Old Xiong, it's not that I won't help you this time. Magistrate Jiang has spoken and I have been reprimanded, so I have no choice but to let him go."

"It doesn't matter. There is no reason why this kind of thing can be done. But what is the relationship between Governor Jiang and Xu Liang of Hongmeng Company?"

"I'm not very clear about this either."

If he really knew that the two were related, he would not have agreed to help Xiong Xiaoge.

"My daughter...?"

"I'll connect her with the best universities."

"Haha, old bear, you still act openly."

After a brief chat, Xiong Xiaoge hung up the phone.

"I didn't expect Brother Xu to have such a strong relationship. It was a miscalculation."

"Jingle Bell……."

The phone soon rang.

When I picked it up, I saw it was Fu Jixun.

After picking up.

"Old Bear, where are you now?"

"I went out to meet a friend and was about to go home. What's wrong?"

"Hurry up and turn on your computer when you go home. Hongmeng's counterattack has begun."

Xiong Xiaoge was stunned for a moment, and when he was about to ask, the caller had already hung up.

"Xiao Zhang, drive the car faster."

The driver agreed and accelerated the car.

After returning home, Xiong Xiaoge immediately went to the study room to turn on the computer and clicked on the Sina homepage.

A big headline at the top came into view.

Xie Fengfeng holds hands with Wang Dafei, and the love between brother and sister is strong.

Feng Fei Lian - NetEase.

A popular young man is in love with a diva, and his love affair shocked the entertainment industry - Sohu.

The sister-brother relationship that caused a sensation in the Chinese entertainment industry - TOM.

Xiong Xiaoge sighed as he looked at the portal website that was blocked by Feng Feilian.

A Feng Fei Lian completely destroyed the situation that Bai Du had finally created and everyone was shouting about Internet games and Hongmeng.

Although some content advocating for the ban on Internet games can still be seen on the Internet, it is no longer the same as the previous top attention and public opinion.

Just like Fu Jixun, he also believes that this is Hongmeng's counterattack and not a coincidence.

Without the support of capital, Fengfeilian would not be able to flood the Chinese Internet and major media overnight.

Coupled with the official phone call tonight, Xiong Xiaoge had a new understanding of Xu Liang's skills and background.

Jingle Bell……!

The cell phone rings.

After taking a look, Xiong Xiaoge quickly picked up.

"Xiaoge, have you read the news on the Internet?"

"Look. Lao Fu, is the news on the Internet true? Or is this just fake news concocted by Hongmeng to counterattack?"

"I really hope it's fake news. But I just called my friends in the media industry in Hong Kong and the news is true.

Moreover, there were rumors about the two people in June this year, but there was no real evidence. Now it is completely exposed. "Fu Jixun said helplessly.

"Xiaoge, it's okay for Feng Feilian to be popular for a month. I'm afraid it will be difficult for Baidu. Do you have any good ideas?"

"I have exhausted all my means. Now I can only look at Li Yanhong and the others."

Fu Jixun sighed in disappointment, and then complained: "Why didn't Hongmeng launch Bing search earlier, but then pushed it when we had poured out the poison and spent money on it? Isn't this a scam?"

Xiong Xiaoge smiled bitterly upon hearing this.

Who says no.

The two of them were deceived.

Previously, he planned to use Hongmeng to hedge risks, but he didn't expect that he would be forced back as soon as he started.

For a while, he didn't have any good ideas.

——

"Mr. Xu, this is a calligraphy written by Magistrate Jiang for you."

Xu Liang took it and opened it.

A piece of official script with vigorous writing and ancient temperament comes into view.

"Don't forget your original intention and keep working hard."

Xu Liang was overjoyed and said, "Secretary Sun, thank Magistrate Jiang for me. Xu Liang will definitely remember his teachings."

"I will definitely take Mr. Xu's words with me. If nothing goes wrong, I will leave."

"etc."

Xu Liang took out a gift box from behind his desk.

"This is a box of Cuban cigars that my client gave me last time. I don't smoke, so I keep them in my hands to waste. Today I borrowed flowers to offer them to Secretary Sun."

Sun Ping has good taste and knows that this is a good thing.

"No, no, Mr. Xu, aren't you asking me to make a mistake?"

"From what you said, it's just a pack of cigarettes."

He stuffed it into Sun Ping's pocket and pulled him downstairs.

Xu Liang personally put him in the car and watched him go away.

come back to the office.

"Lu Hui, frame this picture and hang it in my office."

"yes."

"Let Mr. Wu come to my office."

Not long after, Wu Xifan, senior vice president of Hongmeng Company and president of the gaming division, opened the door and walked in.

"Mr. Xu, please call me."

There was joy on his face.

He does have reason to be happy. Since the company spent money to incite Feng Feilian, the criticism of Internet games from the Internet and the media has been reduced by most, and the pressure on him has also disappeared.

"sit."

After Wu Xifan sat down, he couldn't help but said happily: "Mr. Xu, it's your clever calculations and superb methods. As soon as Feng Fei Lian came out, the media immediately changed the direction of the matter. I'm afraid Baidu's side has been fooled."

Xu Liang smiled and said, "This crisis has been safely passed. However, as long as the high profits of Hongmeng Games continue, there will be no shortage of attacks on us from our business colleagues.

There will only be more things like Bai Du in the future. "

Wu Xifan was stunned for a moment, and his original happiness gradually calmed down.

If the trees are beautiful in the forest, the wind will destroy them; if they are piled up on the bank, the current will be turbulent; if they stand above others, they will be rejected by the crowd.

He also understands the truth.

"Mr. Xu, we were too passive about this matter. We didn't realize it until Bai Du spread the bad news about us all over the world. We have lost the opportunity.

So I think a crisis public relations department should be established within the company. Monitor all media and portals for news that is unfavorable to us, detect and deal with it early, and nip the danger in the bud. "

"This is something I'm considering, but it's hard to find a good crisis public relations manager, and there's no news from headhunters."

There was a pause.

"Okay, let's not talk about this for now. The news that is unfavorable to us on the Internet this time is not only fueled by Baidu, but also the backlog of ordinary people's dissatisfaction with game companies in society, and they took the opportunity to vent on us.

I summarized that the main contradiction lies in the issue of playing games online in middle and high schools.

So I plan to improve our game registration mechanism.

Add ID number registration.

Then, restrictions will be imposed on all game users under the age of 18. Hongmeng games will not be open to them on non-Saturdays, Sundays, winter and summer vacations. "

"Mr. Xu, I'm afraid this will affect our revenue." Wu Xifan said seriously.

"Of course I know it has an impact. However, our main customers are college students and young people who have just left school. Middle and high school students don't have much money, and they are not our mainstream customer base.

And we don’t give up completely.

It will be open on Saturdays, Sundays, winter and summer vacations. "

After a pause, Xu Liang said seriously.

"Old Wu, a good corporate image is sometimes much more important than a little profit."

"yes."

"Go down and ask the people in the technical department to implement it quickly."

He waved his hand and asked Wu Xifan to leave.
