Anyone can see that the real-time strategy game type is the most powerful game type in computer games.

Microsoft, the American software giant, has never stopped exploring the video game industry.

From the msx series home game consoles that cooperated with Japanese home appliance manufacturers such as Panasonic in the 1980s, to the recent participation in the 3do home game console led by the founder of the electronic art industry, it can be said that Microsoft has always wanted to enter the electronic game industry.

After all, the technology company with the largest market value back then was Atari, a company that mainly deals in electronic games?

The rise of real-time strategy games has given Microsoft another perspective to enter the electronic game industry.

Why not make a real-time strategy game and enter the electronic game industry from the personal computer platform?

You should know that Microsoft's main business is office suites and operating systems. It is always easier to try at its own home court than at other people's home courts?

So, Microsoft, which was rich and powerful, began to recruit people to make its own real-time strategy games.

Eventually, they found the gaming talent they wanted in Dallas, Texas.

Three months later, this is the fastest productivity of a large company like Microsoft.

In Dallas, a brand new video game studio was established, the studio is called Full Effect Studio.

Microsoft also established a studio called Microsoft Game Studio to connect with the full-effect studio.

What Quanyu Studio convinced Microsoft to invest in it was a creative called "Age of Empires".

If you look through the development of real-time strategy games, you will find that whether it is the "Dune 2" or the "Command and Conquer" series, they are all science fiction games.

Blizzard's "Warcraft" is a breakthrough in the science fiction background.

The creativity of "Age of Empires" proposed by Quanyu Studio jumped out of the pit of science fiction and fantasy, and turned to develop a pit called history.

Just as "Sidmer's Civilization" has achieved brilliant and dazzling results, Microsoft's decision makers also believe that combining real-time strategy and history will achieve excellent market results.

Microsoft Game Studio will give Quanyu Studio full support to support them in making the game "Age of Empires".

The game "Age of Empires" has another meaning for Microsoft, which is their determination to enter the era of graphics operating systems.

You know, the Wanhu graphics operating system has already made Microsoft feel a crisis.

Although Wanhu's graphics operating system has fewer software available, it makes using a computer so simple.

Not only in China's backward country, Wanhu graphics operating system has more than 90% market share, but also in North America, Wanhu graphics operating system has more than 5%.

Don’t underestimate this 5%; be aware that this 5% has exceeded that of China’s 90%.

A spark can start a prairie fire.

Although most companies are still using Microsoft's operating system now, who can guarantee that such a turning point will not occur, causing many people to abandon Microsoft's operating system and choose the operating system of ten thousand households.

Microsoft clearly knows when this node will arrive, which is the day when the ecology of Wanhu graphics operating system matures.

From the server to the personal side, with all solutions, Microsoft will encounter big problems at that time.

Therefore, Microsoft is now suing Wanhu's graphics operating system, which may lead to the leakage of various key information and infringement of its own patents.

On the other hand, it is making its own graphics operating system at a fast pace.

However, friends who know Microsoft's history know it.

Microsoft is actually not very outstanding in terms of technical strength.

The reason why it can become the number one software vendor in the United States and the world is because Gates has a good mother who can pre-install his operating system on ibm's personal computer.

In addition, it can also allow all computers purchased by the government to use Microsoft's operating system and office suites.

Of course, it is undeniable that Microsoft's technical level has been steadily improving over the years.

After all, you can do whatever you want if you have money.

Not only can you directly acquire former competitors, but you can get all the data and talents of your competitors.

It can also directly attract a large number of outstanding talents to work in Microsoft, which has led to a steady increase in Microsoft's technical strength.

Gradually, my technical strength is worthy of my market share.

However, they encountered many problems in the development of graphics operating system that are not technically solved.

It is that Wanhu has already registered a series of patents. If you want to build a graphics operating system, it is almost impossible to bypass Wanhu's dense and terrifying patent Great Wall.

Therefore, while developing its own operating system, Microsoft is seeking Wanhu's graphics operating system patent authorization on the one hand, and on the other hand, it is suing Wanhu's large number of graphics operating system patents for invalidity.

With so many approaches, Microsoft hopes that tens of thousands of households can submit.

Microsoft also needs a game to prove that its graphics operating system is better than that of Wanhu.

This game is of course "Age of Empires", a real-time strategy game that sounds very historical.

The actual situation of Wanhu, which has attacked from multiple sides, is actually a bit bad.

There are actually many mad dogs like Microsoft. Tens of thousands of households have to attack from multiple sides to deal with these manufacturers in court.

This is also the reason why Heisen, the lawyer at Wanhu Interactive Entertainment, has less and less hair on his head.

Wanhu Interactive Entertainment has a team of up to 500 lawyers on standby at any time, preparing for the prosecution of Wanhu from anywhere in North America for 24 hours.

In Japan, China, and Europe, tens of thousands of households also have different teams of lawyers.

The number of all lawyers owned by Wanhu Group has exceeded one thousand.

This is a team that has achieved brilliant results in high-intensity patent battles. The combat effectiveness of this team is like any legal team of a large multinational group, and is very excellent.

In order to ensure the interests of thousands of households, we are always preparing for the battle.

In this turbulent period, Wanhu Interactive Entertainment has also launched its own real-time strategy game, which is a plagiarism of Blizzard's future games.

The name of this game is StarCraft.

This is a level 13 game. The packaging of this game says, "Do you want to be a world champion?"

Yes, Wanhu’s goal is very clear.
