In 2006, Los Angeles was still a very slow-paced city, sometimes even compared to Chengdu. There wasn't much overtime. After get off work, everyone would go home or go out to eat, drink and have fun with friends.
The office building had gone dark early, with only the neon lights of the building still on and the Qinghe game.
Qinghe Games is an anomaly in this office building. It is normal to be busy until night. The security guards of the building all know that there is an unusual company in the building. They go to work very late in the morning and get off work even later in the evening. It seems that all night owls from across the country are concentrated here.
It’s like we’re here.
Every member of Qinghe is having a party, and there is even a sense of not getting drunk tonight. Of course, everyone will not be really drunk, because tomorrow will start a new mileage, Dota will be officially released.
Carnival and speeches alone are not appropriate. Ren He announced on the spot that everyone would get double pay this month. Everyone looked at each other and then loudly cheered "Long Live the Big Boss".
It seems that this double salary really brings a perfect end to today's carnival, and the elders have all experienced this kind of thing. They know very well that Ren He is not a miser, which is why everyone is willing to stay here.
How much does it cost to earn double salary for more than 400 people a month? This decision cost more than 2 million yuan.
It seems like a lot, but it is very important to the development of Qinghe. Everyone will understand the truth. As long as the big boss is happy and everyone makes Qinghe games well, anything can happen...
Ren He came to the company early the next morning. Now the entire Qinghe Game is full of energy. The media department is dealing with various game media to implement the news that Kunlun has exceeded one million. Qinghe Game has never intended to keep a low profile, and
I can't keep a low profile.
From the very beginning of its establishment, it was destined to become a leader in the gaming world, and it cannot afford to keep a low profile.
Moreover, the current social situation is such that with higher exposure, there will be more wealth and income, and no one will have trouble with money.
Completing the million-level honor itself is an opportunity to expand territory, and Qinghe Games will certainly not miss it.
It is also at this time that everyone who logs in to their account after entering Kunlun will find that the background of the login interface has been changed!
Playing Dota will give you Kunlun game coins and pets. What other gifts are there? What the hell is this!
There are many local tycoons in Kunlun, and there are more people who envy the local tycoons, and there are also more people who don't want to spend tens of thousands to fight with the local tycoons.
They have some small money and their own salary. It is still acceptable to spend tens or hundreds on a game.
And this kind of person is suitable for Dota.
A set of collectible accessory skins in Dota only costs 15 yuan, and the competitive nature will never change based on who spends more and who spends less, it only depends on skill!
At most, it's just to make the heroes you use more beautiful.
Many people don’t understand, is it worth it just for a jewelry?
Rich people don't think so. Someone might spend 20,000 to buy a hero's bug suit.
In short, Dota itself is a game suitable for both the poor and the rich. The poor can beat the rich, and the rich can beat the poor if they are good at it. It all depends on skill.
After everyone has played Dota for a while, you will find that after so many shoddy money-burning games emerged after Kunlun, there suddenly appeared such a competitive game that can be played without spending money. It is so fresh and refined...
…
The pictures also have a beauty that transcends the times. It’s really free, and the poor and rich are completely equal. It’s received rave reviews!
Other game developers are a little confused. Qinghe Games has played such a big game.
At the beginning, everyone collected some cards, and Qinghe Game said it was free, which attracted a large audience, and everyone entered Kunlun.
As a result, everyone discovered that free is just a gimmick, and rich people are king.
Then game developers began to follow the trend, and one by one they started to make games that were claimed to be free but actually cost money, but they were not as good as the originator like Kunlun. How annoying.
As a result, now, you are really free, we have become coquettish bitches, and you have become fresh, refined and unpretentious...
What a huge game of chess!
The major game developers are dumb and unable to tell the story of their suffering, and they were simply shown off by Qinghe Games.
But what can they do? On the day Dota was released, due to Kunlun’s bundled operation, the number of people online at the same time directly exceeded 100,000.
It seems like a small amount, but in fact it has surpassed many games, and compared to the starting point of its previous life, this life is already many times higher.
With Dota's communication capabilities, it will inevitably expand rapidly until games all over the world can only look up.
Now domestically, and later abroad, Ren He will organize the world's largest e-sports event to realize the dreams of those young e-sports players.
Ren He really spared no effort to promote Dota. He contacted Liu Erbao and asked Liu Erbao to help recommend a team that specializes in CG animation to produce a promotional video for Dota. This was an area that Liu Erbao couldn't take on, so he had to find someone else.
And he himself worked with Qinghe Games' technicians to record videos of fighting battles to show the competitive nature of Dota, and even spent money to put them on the top of the game website.
But this is not enough, not attractive enough. At this time, Ren He recalled in his mind the days when he was working in an Internet cafe and only had a bowl of instant noodles for five yuan a day. Maybe there will be people in this era who are as obsessed as he was in the past.
Gaming.
Thinking about it makes people feel sad.
Ren He held a small meeting with the planners to explain his ideas. The planners looked at each other and said: "Big boss, it actually doesn't matter how you want to play, we will support it, there is no need to discuss with us. In Qinghe game,
You are the king."
Five hours later, major game websites across the country suddenly released new top news: Qinghe Games established the Dota E-sports League, and the annual champion will receive a bonus of 10 million!
This was 2006, and there weren't even decent competitive games, so there were no tournaments, no clubs, nothing.
10 million, two lottery prizes, can you get it by playing games?
What was this concept in 2006?
There must be brave men under the heavy reward, and countless young people will fight for it.
All the game developers were stunned. Ten million for one advertisement?! What a bold move!
However, what they don't know is that this is not just an advertisement, but also a small sentiment of Ren He. E-sports is not a scourge, and it should not be despised, so Ren He wants to give it a high starting point.
In fact, the championship reward for the Dota Finals in the previous life was much more than 10 million. The same is true for Qinghe Game. The prize money will increase year by year until teenagers from all over the world come to compete for the highest honor and wealth in the Dota world.
Qinghe Game’s successive big moves are unprecedented, and are something that many operators today dare not even think of.
It was at this moment that the game developers finally realized: Qinghe had risen, and the opponent was no longer someone they could chase just by talking.
They were very curious about one thing. Qinghe Games' rise was too sudden, its ideas were always novel enough, its thinking was always advanced enough yet combined with people's psychology, and it was bold enough.
So far, Qinghe Games has not raised a dime of funds from the outside world and is completely self-sufficient.
They were curious, who was the person who founded Qinghe Games?!
…
