World's Strongest Troll

Chapter 192: The Invisible War

- The glorious return of the hotly burning game Festa legend.

- ‘League of Legends' reborn as virtual reality. Is this the beginning of a new revival?

-Win-win declaration of Arcadia Co., Ltd. Exciting game world.

Normally, Game Festa is not even mentioned unless it is on a game-related news site. However, this year, it has been on the front page of major media outlets and has attracted a lot of attention.

[The first beneficiary of the project announced by Arcadia is a popular game called ‘League of Legends', which has been completely transformed based on Arcadia's virtual reality technology. Users who watched the gameplay at the Game Festa responded explosively, and when this was announced, the stock price of ‘Pyatt Games', which produced ‘League of Legends', rose by 82%. So.....]

Project The Glory of the Past.

Famous games produced in the past based on computers are recreated in virtual reality.

The game industry was astonished when they saw the contents of the project and its actual symbol, ‘League of Legends Reborn', and Repic Games, a super large game company that owns a large number of famous IPs, showed a particularly strong reaction.

“Is that true...? You mean recreating an existing game in virtual reality?”

Pike Bundle, CEO of Refic Games. He even convened an emergency board meeting and began seriously discussing the issue.

“That's right. According to the ‘Past Glory' project unveiled by Arcadia Co., Ltd., it announced that it would provide equipment and development know-how to recreate famous IPs in virtual reality. In addition, immediately after the announcement, related proposals were sent via e-mail to all famous game companies, including our company.”

An e-mail sent to famous companies around the world at the same time as the project was unveiled. It was like a rope given to those struggling in the mire to somehow survive.

“We provide Lucid Dream, which is necessary for virtual reality production, and train employees on related devices. Not bad.”

Lucid Dream, a virtual reality integrated production system that is only open to the public but not officially released. He gave a greedy expression to the contents of the proposal that limited the provision of it to the companies participating in the project and even provided training on how to use it, but soon frowned at the tightly written requirements.

“It's obviously a good offer, but the requirements are too harsh. Once a game is released in virtual reality, all rights related to subscriber information and server operation must be delegated to Argos Corporation. In addition, various adjustments such as system or update patches can only be made after receiving approval and inspection from Arcadia Co., Ltd.”

The requirement to just create a game and hand over management rights. In a way, it was an absurd suggestion to obey them, so in the conference room, complaints began to come and go.

“Is this a reasonable requirement?”

“No, no matter how original technology it is, this is tyranny.”

“To hand over all management rights. If this happens, there is no way the game will operate properly.”

Those who even express their anger saying that the conditions are unacceptable. However, these were not all conditions required by Arcadia Co., Ltd.

“And... when you release a game in virtual reality, you have to pay 10% of the total sales as a commission.”

“10% of my total sales? Isn’t it business profit?”

“You're crazy... Are you offering these ridiculous conditions as an offer?”

“If we do it this way, which game company will participate? This is not a win-win situation. Isn't that a declaration to obey them!”

A proposal sent by Arcadia Co., Ltd., shouting for mutual prosperity.

However, those who took a closer look at the side realized that this was a rotten rope. But despite knowing all that, Pike Bundle, the CEO of Refic Games, muttered with a weary look on his face.

“I am well aware of your concerns on the board. I too was indignant at first when I discovered the hidden intention behind this proposal. I felt like I wanted to openly pour out vitriol, asking if this was a proposal right away.”

He thought about playing the media by revealing their nasty plans through a media company he was close to. However, because he knew very well through his long social experience that the reality was not so rosy and grim, he could not bear to put it into action.

“But... we have to face the present reality. How enthusiastic people are about the release of the game Arcadia, and how fast the number of users, who are decreasing day by day, are moving into the world of virtual reality.”

Due to the expensive capsule price, users still remain. However, the reason why they still remain at Repic Games is not because the game is too fun, but because they just went over to Arcadia and remained there, so their loyalty was not very high.

-Oh no game.

-Do I still have to play games with these graphics?

- What is the waiting time of 20 minutes to turn a round without new arrivals?

- Because it's a restaurant. Is the food served right away at a high-end restaurant?

-What are you saying?

- Hey! I can't eat it because I'm annoyed! I should play another game. Delete. good luck.

Worst case scenario where user churn is accelerating. So, Bundle had no choice but to face the fact that he and the company had no choice left.

Or submit to them with all authority taken away.

Or die a miserable death in this endless mire.

So, he got up from his seat and declared to all the board members with a sad face.

“For us... or not exactly, the entire gaming industry has no choice. It is a situation where we should be grateful that they gave us a chance in this way, rather than just taking all the profits.”

“No, that's...!”

“What do you mean! No matter how bad the situation is, what kind of company is Refic Games!”

World's #1 Repic Games.

Until they grew into world leaders in the game industry with dozens... hundreds of hits, they have overcome countless flatland storms. Therefore, there were some members of the board of directors who wanted to resist with the mindset that this too would pass, but in the end, they had no choice but to come to a final conclusion after intense discussions.

[Repic Games expresses its deep appreciation for Arcadia's win-win proposal and expects to be a good partner moving toward the future together.] Pike Bundle, CEO of

Refic Games, appeared in front of the media. Upon hearing his announcement that he would join hands with Arcadia Co., Ltd., CEO Lee Mi-yeon smiled at Executive Director Myeong-han Kwon and said,

“I am surprised. It was the company I expected the most violent reaction from.”

Repic Games, which can be said to represent the global game industry. Even before 24 hours had passed since Arcadia's proposal was sent, the appearance of those who responded by raising a white flag faster than any other company was showing a marked difference from the scenario she expected. And that's what Executive Director Kwon Myeong-han also said while nodding his head in surprise as if he agreed.

“I was also surprised. I was thinking it would be one of those companies that are vehemently against it.”

Requirements of Arcadia Co., Ltd.

I didn't bother to explain it to them, but in fact, the conditions that Arcadia Co., Ltd. put forward were extremely natural and unavoidable.

AI Alice's control and high-performance facilities provided by Ajin Electronics in top secret. In addition, a virtual reality system that no company can afford if it is not for the innovative programs of Argos. It was essential to replace it, but the existing game companies that did not know it showed strong resistance to the fact that they had to lose most of the powerful authority they had.

“Thanks to Refic Games’ white flag, many game companies are paying attention and responding positively, but there are also those who oppose it saying that it is absolutely unacceptable.”

Managing Director Kwon Myung-han showing something by manipulating his smartphone. It was an article that had just been uploaded.

-An anti-game coalition calling for the overthrow of Arcadia. Will their resistance be victorious?

[We must stop the rampage of those who monopolize virtual reality technology and monopolize the world's game industry using their superior position! That's why we will start legal action in each country to stop Arcadia's monopoly activities that go beyond the limit, and we will stand in solidarity with everyone! Virtual reality technology belongs to all of humanity. As a first step to make it transparent as soon as possible and ensure that all mankind can benefit from it equally...]

Already in front of the camera, there are even voices saying that this is an act of a monopoly and that the government should step in and restrict it right away. President Lee Mi-yeon muttered with a fishy smile at their movement to form a coalition and unite to resist.

“oh. That's an interesting idea. How can the logic of releasing virtual reality technology to the public while tying it up as a monopoly can be woven like that?”

In the end, they want to eat it all by themselves as they normally do, so they insist that even a child who asks them to spit out the technology will not do it. Looking at her chilly smile, Executive Director Kwon Myung-han continued.

“First of all, I am looking at the companies that participated in that statement... It seems that there is probably a lot of influence from the Chinese government.”

The Chinese government shows the most closed tendency in foreign companies' domestic activities. CEO Lee Mi-yeon frowned and said, as if troubled by Executive Director Kwon Myung-han's statement that their involvement was suspicious.

“Are you in China again? Anyway, it really gives me a headache.”

Even at the time of launching Arcadia, the Chinese market was about to give up on launching the service due to all kinds of regulations and laws. At the end of the negotiations, the Chinese government conceded and was able to dramatically launch Arcadia, but even then they continued to try to intervene in the company's operations.

“Anyway, why are there so many countries that are frantically trying to get virtual reality technology out of it somehow... they won’t be able to use it properly anyway.”

virtual reality.

It is such an unusual technology that experts in related technology refer to the existing technology as a product of super-science far ahead of hundreds of years. No country had the infrastructure and technology to handle this normally, so President Lee Mi-yeon was fed up with their shallow tricks.

“First of all, check the list of companies that participated in this statement carefully and put them all on the blacklist. We will closely monitor him so that he cannot participate in any projects related to our company in the future.”

“All right.”

“Oh, and just in case, I thoroughly check the recruitment of employees. In this case, we will be completely consistent with no response. You don’t even have to write a counter-article.”

“yes....?”

The other side is determined to drive it into a vicious company. At the words of President Lee Mi-yeon, who said not to do anything, even if it is not enough to immediately publish a refutation article and thoroughly fight public opinion, Executive Director Kwon Myung-han asked with a puzzled expression. However, at such an executive director, Myeong-han Kwon, she muttered with evil eyes shining.

“I’m definitely going to weed it out this time. We need to find out who all the guys are against our company and who are outright plundering virtual reality technology.”

Lee Mi-yeon, the president of the company, had the rudeness to repay grudges 100 times even if she forgot the favor.
