Chapter 272: Chapter 270: Cloud Dream’s Big Move

Translator: 549690339

“So, is the VR gaming industry inevitably going to be eliminated?”

Zoe summarized her question.

“I don’t think it will be eliminated, but it won’t be the mainstream anymore either.” Lincoln gave a very cooperative conclusion.

“In the end, it should become a branch in the entire gaming field. The shrinkage of its scale is inevitable, but with proper response, it is definitely possible to survive.”

“The birth of virtual reality games has just greatly accelerated this process.”

Zoe nodded her head, her key question was answered, and the interview had not been in vain.

—Of course, she would not be so foolish as to blame Lincoln for the decline of the VR industry.

Although Lincoln caused the shrinkage and foreseeable collapse of the VR industry, at the same time, he was also creating an industry far more extensive and stunning in scale and prospects than the VR industry, with no competitors worldwide, and possibly even eventually sweeping the world.

Not to mention the headbands quietly placed in schools; the vision and hearing-assisting headbands that have caused a huge sensation among the disabled… It all shows that what he created is far more than just a single industry.

Who has the right to blame him?!

Anyone who dares to blame Lincoln for this need not speak, Zoe, even the entire “Great Xia Industrial Observer” would jump out to scold them!

After all, it’s their newspaper’s mission to care about the unlimited potential of new industries!

It’s just that Lincoln is too outrageous. The moment virtual reality technology was born, it took off on the spot, without anyone needing to predict who was optimistic about it.

—Because anyone with eyes can’t help but be optimistic about it…

Even the unique nature of virtual reality technology means that people without eyes want to buy one to try, obviously also very “looking” forward to it…

Zoe did not miss the rare opportunity, and the following topics were basically about virtual reality games and other industry opportunities derived from the technology, and they talked a lot.

In the end, she still wrapped up with a relatively realistic question:

“Since ‘Traveler of the Wind’ and ‘Light Encounter’ have successively become successful, many producers in the industry think that you have opened up a

new path for casual games. Lots of small studios are drawing on the design philosophies of these two games to make travel exploration-type casual games. According to the information I have received, several of them are very worried that you will sue them.”

Zoe looked at Lincoln with great interest, “Will you?”

This was indeed new information. It was clear that Zoe had done her homework before the interview. It should have been information she obtained from other producers and had not been disclosed on the Internet, so Mavis didn’t know about it.

“If it’s just borrowing design concepts, they obviously don’t have to worry. It’s imitating too closely that they should worry, right?” Lincoln was clear about these things.

“As for worrying about being sued, I can only say: They have every reason to worry!”

Lincoln nodded, “It depends on the quality of the games they make. If the quality is high and they are serious about making games, even if they are similar, it doesn’t matter; I can totally accept it. But—”

“If it’s just a matter of following the trend and making money, and the quality of the game is low, then I’m sorry! As long as I find evidence, I will sue everyone I catch!”

To prove his determination, Lincoln added, “Please believe in my sincerity. Although there aren’t many people in Cloud Dream’s Legal Department now, I am more than willing to expand for this purpose!”

Having heard this, Zoe, who was accustomed to the business world, could not help but be moved: Lincoln was not considering things from his own interests.

—His starting point for everything was the healthy development of the industry and the experience of the players!

It can be described as completely selfless, simply for the benefit of others! What a noble spirit!

With overwhelming admiration, Zoe said her goodbyes and left.

Her heart was filled with a strong creative desire: She must tell this story of a genius, unique, and noble soul to everyone!

At the moment, the only thing on her mind was: Write! Write! Write!

Watching the female reporter leaving with the high-spirited flame of struggle, Lincoln also turned around to attend to his own affairs.

—Go to the park’s restaurant to check on the chefs’ skills.

After all, if it’s reliable, there’s nothing more to say.

If that doesn’t work, it’s time to consider whether to increase the meal allowance to make it more convenient for everyone to dine out.

Or perhaps hire a few chefs and clear some space to create an employee canteen.

Or even buy another building to open a restaurant?

Lincoln walked into the park’s restaurant with his outrageous ideas.

While Samuel submitted the game for review, another essential part of the new game – IP acquisition – was in full swing.

Although there is no IP frenzy going on, people are not fools. Popular IP images are unlikely to be sold off easily.

However, there are plenty of IPS that are moderately popular or were once very popular but are now somewhat outdated.

Moreover, Cloud Dream has deep pockets, and Lincoln allocated a large sum of money for the purchase, which can only be described as frenzied!

After all, the “large sum” in Lincoln’s eyes is like astronomical figures to many small companies, publishers, and even individual painters and writers!

Once the acquisition group records and files each transaction in the office software, Mavis immediately puts the corresponding character images into the amusement park.

Lincoln has already taught Mavis how to do this – first, make them into doll costumes. let the NPCs wear them. and the rest can be figured out later.

These costumes could even become rewards for the Fall Guys competition venue, killing two birds with one stone.

This unrestrained “shopping spree” has naturally attracted market attention.

As a matter of fact, since yesterday afternoon, painters and writers have been posting updates on their pages, ecstatically saying that they have sold one of their works at a “good price!”

With Lincoln’s indication, Cloud Dream has given money far beyond the current market price of these works’ copyrights.

For many individual creators without backing, this is obviously very generous.

As a result, many creators used exaggerated phrases like “pie in the sky,” “sudden financial freedom,” “Cloud Dream, god!”… when posting celebratory messages.

Fans thought they were giving up on their craft and not focusing on painting or writing novels, running off to participate in making games instead.

There were cries of despair in the comment section, exclaiming “no, don’t do

By this morning, many small-sized companies began selling some of the dusty copyrights they held.

By this time, the issue has attracted widespread attention from netizens.

Everyone was asking: what on earth does Cloud Dream want to do with so many characters?

Many people speculated that Cloud Dream was going to enter the cultural and creative industry.

But players didn’t agree with this idea!

In their view, Cloud Dream was already developing games at such high efficiency, so how could they have extra energy for cultural and creative work?

So there was only one answer: they were buying copyright images because they needed them for making games!

But then the question arises: aren’t the copyrights they’re buying too numerous and diverse?

Spanning both 2D and 3D, there are detectives and adventurers, adults and children, anthropomorphic animals, kings, princes, princesses, and various other fairy tale characters…

There’s simply everything!

Moreover, considering their actions, this is just the beginning, and the “big purchase” is far from over.

But how could these character images fit into one game?

They don’t even have the same art style!
