"Skyhill" Plagiarized!
Sunday, a lazy day.
Most people choose to sleep until noon on this day to relieve the fatigue from Monday to Friday.
Whether you're a working professional or a university student, this applies to everyone.
But today, because of the release of Skyhill, what should have been a lazy day has turned into a day of intense and exhilarating battles.
Since the game was unlocked, players have been experiencing a continuous spiritual uplift.
Posts and discussions continued on various online communities, creating a lively and harmonious atmosphere.
but
This harmony does not exist in the Jiyou Network.
At this moment, President An looked grim as he held a video conference at home with the heads of the five studios.
"Engineer Yang, can you explain to me why our innovative combination of horror and shooting ended up in that game?"
Upon hearing President An An's words, Yang Ying, who was enjoying the weekend at home, felt completely overwhelmed.
Originally, he was just like any other player, taking advantage of his day off to buy and try out Skyhill.
As a result, after lunch, before we even had a chance to continue our sightseeing, our company's President An sent me WeChat saying that the studio leaders would be having a collective video conference.
He immediately realized that someone had told President An the gun system in "Skyhill".
President An, who neither plays games nor understands them, was naturally furious and believed it was plagiarism.
In fact, when Yang Ying first saw that "Skyhill" had a gun system, he immediately thought it was plagiarism.
But then I thought about it, and realized that their game was developed earlier, announced earlier, and released earlier than mine. Everything about them was ahead of mine.
How can you be so sure that only you could come up with a combination like horror and shooting?
What if someone else already thought of it but just didn't announce it?
In comparison, we seem to look more like clowns.
After all, they had already thought of and implemented this system mechanism.
When it came to their own side, they were smugly pleased with themselves, thinking it was innovation.
How embarrassing!
"Well, President An, I personally think this is a coincidence. After all, what we can think of, others might not be able to as well."
"You mean you're inferior to others?"
Yang Ying was taken aback. What did he mean by that?
How did it become that I'm inferior to others?
The world is so big, if we can come up with innovative ideas like combining horror and shooting, others certainly can too!
Let's not even talk about competitors; the player community can probably guess, right?
"Engineer Yang, do you know what that Horror Games you're in charge of represents? Hmm?"
President An's tone grew colder and his face turned increasingly ashen, as if he were barely suppressing his anger.
"In order to penetrate the horror genre market and gain a certain market share."
Yang Ying's voice trembled slightly; he was somewhat afraid of President An in this state.
The other four studio managers looked embarrassed.
They didn't feel good in this kind of questioning environment either.
"You see, you know the heavy responsibility this game carries. Besides opening up the game market, it also embodies the company's hope of pioneering a new genre. I'm entrusting it to you not only because you're the only team in the company with experience in making Horror Games, but more importantly, because I want to give you another chance."
"You proved that you didn't disappoint me either, and you came up with an unprecedented and innovative concept of combining horror and shooting. I'm very happy."
"But now, you must explain to me clearly why others were able to implement the ideas we proposed and published first?"
"Did you come up with this innovative idea yourself, or did someone else tell you about it and then you claimed it as your own?"
Yang Ying at his wit's end again; he had no idea what to do.
What should have been a simple problem has become exceptionally difficult.
He knew that President An was convinced that "Skyhill" had been plagiarized, and that the reason he was asking them for an explanation was simply because he needed to vent his anger.
"President An, I can say with 100% certainty that the combination of horror and shooting is an innovative concept that our Leap Group came up with together, and it is also the first new combination announced in China."
"As for why Only Game ' new game features this innovation, considering their game development cycle and project initiation time, I can only say that they had the same idea. The difference is that they didn't announce it, while we did."
Upon President An took a few deep breaths, seemingly strongly disagreeing with the answer.
"Engineer Yang, the biggest problem with your team is that the game development is too slow!"
"Yes, you came up with a great innovative idea, but what happened? It ended up with someone else, and you ended up doing all the work for them?"
"What highlights does your game have now? Without that unprecedented idea that will attract all those gamers, how can you stand out in the horror market? How can you compete with them? In the end, those gamers will accuse us of plagiarism!"
"How much negative reputation and impact will this have on the company!?"
"Let me put it this way: I don't care whether they had this idea when they started the project, and I don't care whether they came up with this innovation first. Right now, we are the company that announced this innovation first. We haven't even implemented it yet, and they've already used it. So they're plagiarizing!"
"I want you to contact the head of public relations immediately, explain this matter to him from beginning to end, and have him issue a statement of criticism."
"You need to understand that we are the victims! Our stuff is ours, and we absolutely cannot let others take it! Also, contact the head of the legal department and immediately apply for a patent for this innovative combination, and then sue Only Game!"
"I want to see results by next Tuesday!"
On Sunday night, a 2,000-word accusatory statement posted by Jiyou Network on Weibo went viral across the internet.
Many people flocked to Weibo, wanting to know what exactly was said.
When everyone saw it, they immediately burst out laughing.
In summary, this extremely long blog post roughly means:
A month or so ago, our Ji You, announced a brand new innovative concept to all Chinese players: horror + shooting.
Once the innovation was announced, players expressed their support, which gave Ji You a lot of confidence, and they decided to use this innovation to develop a new game, "Bloody Scientist," to reward the players.
Just as the game development team at the Ji You headquarters was working day and night, putting in extra hours to develop new games for players.
A certain game developer, who doesn't follow industry rules, engages in malicious competition.
They plagiarized our published innovative ideas and used them in their game.
In order to turn this innovative idea into their own, they are willing to rush to market before us, hoping to crush us.
They did this just to prove to us how shameless they are!
This is absolutely unacceptable!
We strongly condemn this and demand that you remove the game from the platform! Remove our innovative concepts from it!
Meanwhile, in order to ensure fair competition in the industry, we have decided to sue Infinite Network Entertainment and its Only Game studio.
As one of the largest game companies in China, Jiyou Network firmly opposes this kind of behavior that steals others' ideas!
We urge all players to closely monitor us, and we are committed to Ji You everyone with a clean gaming environment.
Also, please look forward to the upcoming announcement of a brand new horror + shooting game, Bloody Scientist!
Upon seeing this, the players couldn't hold back any longer and grabbed their keyboards to hurl insults at the blog post, calling the Jiyou Network shameless.
