Chapter 543 “What is Early Access?”

It was not until 8 o'clock that night that netizens who had been busy all day finally waited for an official announcement with white letters on a blue background——

"On November 27, 2030, at 8:45 am, our bureau command center received an important report:

NetDragon Game Technology Co., Ltd. stole important technologies related to national security, and the evidence is clear and reliable.

Our bureau immediately organized a team to conduct a comprehensive inspection of the units involved, and arrested the three main suspects Zhao (male, 29 years old), Wu (male, 38 years old), and Qian (male, 47 years old) on the spot.

people, and 67 related persons involved.

After preliminary investigation and interrogation, the criminal facts were clear and the criminal suspect also confessed to the criminal facts.

At present, the criminal suspect has been criminally detained in accordance with the law, and the case is under further processing.

Xia Jing National Security Bureau

November 27, 2030』

…

The dust has settled!

Although the case is not over yet, there are still more investigations, more inquiries, more confidentiality agreements, and then there will be the defense of lawyers, the trial of the criminals, and other matters.

Not to mention the future path of NetDragon and where the large number of remaining employees will go from here.

The subsequent impact will inevitably last for a long time.

But for netizens, seeing this announcement is like sealing the deal.

NetDragon boss Zhao Yucheng is very likely to go to jail for 10 years for "endangering national security".

The other two main prisoners are also very likely to be sentenced to 5 to 10 years.

——As soon as the announcement came out, countless lawyers came out and cited relevant legal provisions to popularize legal knowledge among netizens.

At this point, NetDragon has been completely nailed to the pillar of shame and will never be able to stand up again.

Yes, not Zhao Yucheng personally, but NetDragon as a whole!

After all, this is not a commercial crime. It is not a company boss who climbs over the wall and enters the rival company's factory to secretly photograph the production line...

This is officially determined to be “endangering national security”!

Its severity is not at the same level as commercial crime!

It was not until this moment that netizens understood that NetDragon was not an ordinary commercial crime.

It was almost visible to the naked eye that the scolding on the Internet immediately escalated to several levels.

By the way, everyone also started to analyze some of the contents in the announcement.

Was the "important information" mentioned in the announcement provided by Lin You? Is he the informant?

Otherwise, why would he appear directly at the scene?

Thinking again about NetDragon stealing technology and Lin You being present, the answer is simply obvious——

NetDragon stole Yunmeng's virtual reality technology, but was caught by Lin You, so Lin You took the special police and went directly to NetDragon to block the door and ransack the house!

How domineering!

The only thing that everyone didn't expect is that virtual reality technology actually involves national security.

But no one doubted this. As long as they thought about it for a moment, they felt that it should be so.

＊

The National Security Bureau acted very quickly.

Early the next morning, the isolation cordon at NetDragon's headquarters was removed, and employees were no longer restricted from going to work normally.

Although NetDragon's building is about to collapse, it has not collapsed after all. It is impossible for such a large company to collapse in one day. The panicked employees still came to the company on time to go to work.

The same is true for Zhang Heying.

But he didn't expect that NetDragon's headquarters would be surrounded again!

But this time, those who gathered around were no longer relevant departments, but netizens and players.

Not players in a broad sense, but NetDragon's own player group that is shrinking.

The reason why I can confirm it at a glance is because there are six [Flying Dragon III] VR equipment lined up at the main entrance of NetDragon.

The expensive equipment, which was once sold for 70,000 to 80,000 yuan per unit, was now placed on the asphalt road without any care by its owners.

"What is this for?"

Unlike many other employees who hurriedly entered the company as soon as they saw this scene, they even had to put on hats and masks for fear of being photographed by the mobile phones at the door.

Zhang Heying was indeed a public relations person. Not only did she not run away, she walked over to them and asked them what they wanted to do.

One of the elder brothers glanced at Zhang Heying with disdain and said: "The live broadcast smashed the equipment!"

"..." Zhang Heying's eyes widened and he was shocked: "As for it?"

"That's too much!" The eldest brother gritted his teeth angrily, "Today I will draw a clear line with NetDragon!"

Zhang Heying swallowed and suddenly felt his mouth was dry.

The professionalism of the public relations worker told him: This is a sign that NetDragon's reputation has completely collapsed and is irreversible. Something must be done as soon as possible.

But another voice was telling him: "Stop struggling, give up, and find a new home quickly."

Just as he hesitated for a moment, the door became more lively, and even the banners were pulled up——

[RNM, refund your money!]

Looking at the densely packed mobile phones and tripods, Zhang Heying bets: everything happening here is being broadcast live.

This made him finally give up the idea of ​​getting involved and turned around and entered the company.

In the company, people's hearts are unsurprisingly volatile.

Everyone has their computer turned on, but the keyboard and mouse are not touching, but the mobile phones in their hands are buzzing.

All this gave Zhang Heying a strong sense of doom and gloom.

Even if someone in the group is saying "the old chairman is back", it cannot dilute this feeling at all.

Looking out the window, there were eight Feilong III VR devices lined up. Amid the enthusiastic applause of the crowd, they were smashed to pieces by their owner with a hammer. Parts flew everywhere and scattered on the ground.

The muffled sound of "clang" and "clang", to his ears, sounded the death knell for NetDragon.

This gave him an extremely strong intuition: NetDragon is finished.

And it will be over very quickly!

*

The player gathering at the entrance of NetDragon created a whole morning of fun for netizens.

Especially the scene where the VR host and supporting equipment were smashed with hammer after hammer, which made them shout "Brother is awesome!"

No matter how much the price of this second-hand thing drops, it can still be sold for seven to eight thousand if it is listed now.

As a result, this group of people didn't say anything, and they were smashed!

And it wasn’t just 8 units. One after another, people rushed to the scene with equipment, and a total of 13 Feilong III units were smashed in one morning!

The atmosphere at the scene, from the indignant "crusade against NetDragon" at the beginning, has completely turned into an outdoor party later on.

The number of people gathered was so large that the security guards of the science and technology park were dispatched. When they arrived at the scene, they did not drive away the players, but began to maintain order and even provide help.

——In Daxia, things like “endangering national security” are extremely despised.

Netizens have been in such excitement all morning. Just as they calmed down their excitement, they received another piece of good news that made them extremely excited.

Yunmeng's official account and the newly registered "Battlefield" official account released announcements at the same time——

"The early access version of "Battlefield" will be available globally at 14:00 tomorrow afternoon!"

Shen Ping led a team to carefully study the news reports on the arrest of NetDragon's boss by many overseas media, especially in Europe, as well as the reactions of relevant forums and player communities.

After being busy all afternoon, Lin You’s answer was: It’s absolutely possible, there are only advantages and no disadvantages.

After the grievances between Lin You and NetDragon were reported and spread to the European gamer community, people there did not feel that Lin You was excessive at all. Instead, they felt that this was a "Real Man", a real man!

As a result, my favorability towards him has been greatly improved.

Therefore, this early version of "Battlefield" will be released simultaneously in all regions around the world.

In Europe, there is also a social network platform that has the same functions and functions as Lingxi - [Bluebird].

After Mirage was sold to the European market, Yunmeng also registered an account on [Bluebird], and this announcement was also released on Bluebird.

A large number of players cheered and clicked on the announcement to view the detailed content——

"The early access version of "Battlefield" will be available worldwide at 14:00 tomorrow afternoon!

Purchase reminder:

In the early access version, you can immediately get the trial rights to start the game and participate in it as the game develops.
