I became the richest man in the world after losing my life in a vegetative state.

That night.

It was Zhou Haimei who stayed to accompany Yang Ming.

However, Yang Ming kept feeling that something was missing after tossing and turning. Zhou Haimei didn't know what her husband was thinking, and she didn't dare to disturb Yang Ming.

Early the next day.

When Yang Ming woke up, Zhou Haimei next to him also woke up and was helping Yang Ming put on his clothes.

Yang Ming came down from the room.

The weather is still cold now, so he won't go swimming.

And take a walk in the villa's yard.

Then I went to the restaurant to have breakfast and read the newspaper, where I could see the exciting legend about the upcoming listing of Yang Ming Empire Game Company.

This game is rated very highly by many players.

finish breakfast.

Yang Ming picked up the unfinished newspaper and left the villa with Alina, Yingla, and Lin Zhiling, heading for the Empire Group Building.

On the way, Yang Ming asked, "Zhi Ling, are your parents still in Hong Kong?"

"No, they went back to Taiwan."

On the third day of the Lunar New Year, Lin Zhiling's parents left Hong Kong and returned to Taiwan.

In that case, Yang Ming didn't ask any more questions.

Back at the Empire State Building.

I just went up to the chairman’s office on the top floor and saw Lin Xiuzhi and He Chaohuan were both there.

Yang Ming still had the habit of looking at the world outside the window first, and then sitting down to drink tea.

"Hideji, please inform Tomohiro Nishikado, Akio Nakanishi, and Masato Matsushita to wait for me in the small conference room. I have something very important to discuss with them."

"Yes, boss."

Lin Xiuzhi called the three people personally.

Ten minutes passed.

The three of them took the elevator up from downstairs and were already waiting in the conference room.

Yesterday, a conference was held about the new game Legend of Mir 2, which has already caused a sensation around the world.

Especially in Japan, many old friends there called them to ask questions.

However, the three did not reveal much.

Now, Yang Ming was going to meet them again, thinking that there was a new game ready for development.

When Yang Ming and Lin Xiuzhi came to the meeting room.

After Lin Xiuzhi closed the door, Xijiao Youhong and the other two stood up and greeted Yang Ming respectfully.

"Boss, morning."

"Sit down."

Yang Ming is already very familiar with them.

The three of them sat down.

Yang Ming asked: "Now we have more and more games under Empire Games, whether it is arcade, home game console, stand-alone game, or online game, they are all loved by players all over the world. But, have you found what we are missing?"

What's missing?

The three of them were silent at first, thinking.

They feel that they can't keep up with their boss's thinking.

Among them, Nakanishi Akio and Matsushita Mashito are getting older, and Nishikado Tomohiro is a little younger. However, when it comes to games, they are experts in this field.

Now they don't feel like they're missing anything.

Obviously, they don't know.

"Sorry, boss, I didn't expect that." said Nishikado Tomohiro.

Although Akio Nakanishi really wanted to show his talents, he really couldn't think of anything at the moment.

As for Matsushita Mashito, he was not good at these things.

“It’s about the trading of virtual items.”

The so-called virtual items are non-physical and intangible items. They belong to another production model and another production field. They can be seen but not touched. They are a product of the virtual world.

Virtual items refer to items derived from the virtual online game world, mainly equipment, weapons, etc., and sometimes also include in-game currency and various QQ payment icons such as yellow diamonds, QQ memberships, etc.

Historically, after 2000, with the expansion of global online games, the virtual world has become even larger, and virtual items have generated unique value and formed their own system.

Value will inevitably bring the pursuit of interests. Whether it is manufacturers or players, they will invest without hesitation in becoming a part of the virtual value system in the face of interests.

However, issues such as how to position personal virtual items in online games, whether virtual items are protected by law, and whether the transaction of virtual items is legal are becoming increasingly prominent.

Cases of fraud using virtual items are emerging one after another, and the security issues of virtual item transactions have re-emerged. Different regions and game companies have different views on the phenomenon of "cash transactions for virtual items".

Most people think that players’ behavior cannot be restricted, but this trend should not be allowed to continue, and most of them hold an attitude of disapproval.

As the number of global online game users exceeds tens of millions, virtual transactions derived from online game exchanges are becoming more frequent, and the value of virtual items is projected into real life, constantly impacting the value system of traditional physical objects.

The core issue of virtual transactions is the real value of virtual items in online games!

Yang Ming thought about it last night and felt that his gaming empire seemed to be missing a very important link.

It was not until late at night that he realized that it was about the virtual items involved in the online game.

The most important thing is the equipment, weapons, etc. in the game.

Historically, Yang Ming knew that many professional game players made money by playing for other players, training for them, and also by buying and selling game equipment and weapons.

From then on, a game could support one's life and even make one rich.

In some popular online games, the equipment and weapons that drop in them range from a few hundred yuan to a few thousand yuan, or even tens of thousands, hundreds of thousands, or even millions of yuan.

Some gaming guilds and some wealthy people who like to play games will be very willing to spend money to buy their favorite equipment or weapons.

This also led to the popularity of a game.

Yang Ming knew that before he came to this world, in his previous life, the equipment and weapons obtained from playing the most popular games could actually be bought and sold.

It’s just that some of them are offline transactions, which ultimately lead to insecurity and a series of problems.

Afterwards, many online games had their own trading platforms.

The most famous of these is Wangyi’s Treasure Pavilion.

It was established on July 2007, 7.

At that time, Wangyi claimed that in order to better protect the virtual property of NetEase players, eliminate the channels for hackers to sell stolen goods, and combat fraud in games, Wangyi launched the official virtual item trading platform "Zhenbao Pavilion" on July 2007, 7. This platform was first tested externally, and by the Spring Festival of 31, more than 2008 servers had participated in the test. The majority of players strongly supported the test and put forward valuable suggestions.

Based on external testing results and player feedback, the services provided by "Treasure Pavilion" have been optimized and adjusted.

From February 2008, 2, "Treasure Pavilion" was officially opened to all servers.

However, there is naturally no Treasure Pavilion now.

Now, Yang Ming has developed a number of online games, including Warcraft and other online games.

And the next one is Legend of Mir 2.

In the future, with the development of the Internet, online games and even mobile games will appear.

In other words, as more and more games of this type are produced, more and more virtual game products will be produced.

Yang Ming is very clear that this officially recognized offline game trading platform is very important.

As an official trading platform, it is particularly important to ensure the safety of buyers and sellers.

This is also a very important way to improve the value of a game.
