When we look at gaming forums, or information related to gaming, we often see words like goose factory, pig factory, chicken factory. While we're sure that these are not talking about actual farms, but rather game companies, some people don't always know exactly which ones.
Goose Factory
Goose Factory refers to Tencent. As for the origin of this name, must have some relationship with the Tencent logo penguin image, and then there is the image of Tencent's QQ chat software is also a penguin, since all are penguins, then the name of the goose factory seems to be justified.
In addition to the more widely recognized reasons for Tencent being called Goose Factory, there are also some rumors about Tencent's reputation in the jungle, which we have no way of proving to be true or false.
Rumor one
On April Fool's Day 2018, Tencent announced the establishment of a goose breeding base. Although it was just an April Fool's joke, players seized on Tencent's official joke and called it a goose factory.
Rumor 2
The Tencent employee casually took out a QQ doll in order to introduce his job to his parents. Unexpectedly, his parents mistook his workplace for a factory that produces penguin figurines. Although this is just a paragraph, the majority of netizens are enjoying it, saying that this is the origin of the name goose factory.
Personally, I still prefer the previously recognized reason over these two unverifiable rumors.
Pig factory
Pig factory refers to NetEase. The reason why NetEase is called Pig Factory is because the CEO of NetEase, Ding Lei, really went to raise pigs. In 2009, NetEase, a major Internet company, announced its entry into the pig farming industry. A moment caused people to pay more attention, but a considerable part of the people feel that this is NetEase in the gimmick, until the World Internet Conference in 2015, Ding Lei with his own company breeding black pigs to entertain the leadership of major companies, and quite popular, which makes people believe that the NetEase is really raising pigs, and since then the players have been flirting with the NetEase for the pig factory.
While the word "pig" is generally pejorative in the country, but the pig factory this name does not mean, more is a kind of netizen's flirtation and banter, as well as is the CEO of NetEase Ding Lei dare to say and do a kind of recognition.
Chicken factory
Chicken factory refers to Miha Tour, which is a name full of insulting meaning. It is reasonable to say that the game quality of Mihayou is generally higher, and the game company's reputation has always been better, so why would it be called a chicken factory? The main reason is that some gamers are disgusted with the "soft pornography" element that Mihayou adds to its games, so they call it Chicken Factory. Of course, this "soft porn" element is very ambiguous, and the basis of judgment is also very subjective.
Personally, I think Miha Tour's games are mostly secondary games, with more female characters in the game, and the drawing and modeling are very beautiful, which is a normal thing, and it's a feature of the secondary games as well as an important element of their composition. But some conservative players call it "soft porn" which is very unfair.
Summary:
Tencent goose factory and NetEase pig factory name, more is a kind of netizen flirtation. And the name of Miha Tour chicken factory, is full of prejudice and discrimination, is part of the conservative players on the second game of an incorrect perception. Personally believe that as long as the game to grasp the scale, plus there are a variety of game regulators to monitor, players do not make too much fuss, should give the new type of game more tolerance and understanding.
