Players can't bear to alarm when encountering plug-in
In May this year, the military competition experience "Peace Elite" was officially tested by Tencent Photonics Studio Group. Xiao Zhao (alias) of Baokang nationality is a fan of the game. But after a while, he found that his technology was getting worse and worse, and he was often eliminated by the other side before he saw the other side.
Xiao Zhao is confident about his technology. He suspects that the other party has used the game plug-in program. Xiao Zhao searched on the Internet and found that there was a website selling the plug-in of Peace Elite publicly, so he bought a plug-in with the function of weeding to test its effect. With the plug-in, he can clearly see the other players hiding in the grass, and understand the reason why he is often found in the grass.
Subsequently, Xiao Zhao purchased and tried two other plug-ins. After using them, Xiao Zhao became more convinced that his opponents used the game plug-ins, which seriously affected the fairness of the game. He then reported to the Baokang County Public Security Bureau's network security brigade, and the police launched an investigation according to this clue.
After deep digging and careful investigation of this clue, the police gradually determined the organizational structure of the plug-in group, and grasped the relevant information of the plug-in producers, general agents and sellers.
All the three gangs are after 00.
At the beginning of July, Baokang police launched a network collection operation, and went to Heilongjiang, Hunan, Guangdong, Hebei, Zhejiang and other places to capture nine suspects in one fell swoop, including the author involved, the first-level agent, the head of Kameng League and the second-level agent.

After downloading the program, they can activate it through the card. Developers submit the plug-in cards to a first-level agent for sale to the outside world. The first-level agent then develops off-line sales. Off-line sales at all levels are carried out through chat tools or card alliances. Some of them have as high as six or seven levels of agent plug-in. The cost of the card is about 5 cents per level, and the maximum cost is 15 yuan per day.
Since the launch of the game in April, "SK2" plug-in program has sold more than 80,000 people, "Venomous Snake" plug-in program has sold more than 100,000 people, and "Ma Ridi" plug-in program has sold more than 40,000 people, involving more than 3 million yuan.
Even more surprising is that the main developers and holders of these three plug-ins are "00", two of them are students.
High school dropouts make profits by writing plug-ins at home

In mid-April, Chen found Weimou, a game friend with experience in selling plug-ins, to discuss. He was responsible for the development and update of plug-ins, and "Jiuge" was sold to the outside world as a first-class agent. Chen Mou wholesale to Jiuge at the price of 1 yuan per card (for one day). Jiuge has earned 0.5 yuan to 0.7 yuan per card for wholesale to offline.
Chen Mou develops the plug-in program with complete functions, and Chen Mou updates it every four or five days. The program runs very stably and is favored by some players. At the peak time, 7,800 people use it online every day. The price of the card is as high as 15 yuan per day.
In addition to SK2, Chen also developed a plug-in program for the game, "Bomb", which has been released online for free trial for gamers and has not yet had time to charge.
In addition, Wang Mou, the author of the "snake" plug-in program, is a student. After writing the program, He Mou, a first-level agent, is responsible for the sale. He will then outsource the plug-in package to Shi and others who use their Kameng website to sell. Zhao Mou purchased the "Peace Elite" weeding plug-in program online, named "Ma Ridi", and then sold the plug-in program to Weimou, Zhou Mou, Zhang Mou and others, Weimou, Zhou Mou, Zhang Mou and then sold it to players through chat groups and kameng.
