Shanghai Youth Daily, 3/20/08
Blizzard global VP Frank Pearce has indicated that Starcraft II is still under development and the process of choosing a mainland agent has not yet started, adding that rumors the The9 (Nasdaq: NCTY) is out of the running are unfounded. A The9 executive commented that "Starcraft 2 is a single player game, an agency would basically only handle customer services. There's not much money in that, so we're not concerned as to who becomes the agent."
