I am not a follower of Sanqian, nor does this book follow the trend.

By the time Catherine got home, it was already seven o'clock in the evening.

Although she wanted to go back to school, when she thought about what happened last night, Catherine wanted to have some quiet time.

In her spare time, Catherine sat at her desk and started writing the fourth volume of Harry Potter.

In fact, it is already completed, but after all, the storyline has been modified by Catherine, so in order to avoid bugs, she checked it over and did some "touch-ups" at the same time.

"Pairing Harry and Hermione...seems really good."

In fact, in Catherine's mind, Harry Potter and Hermione were originally a couple, but she never expected that they would be cuckolded by Ron later.

Perhaps this was Aunt Rowling's original intention, but after Catherine thought about it, she didn't know if she should change it.

But as she thought about it, another idea suddenly appeared in her mind.

Maybe……

Why don't you make Harry Potter into a game yourself?

Since everyone likes Hermione or Harry so much, why not let them chase them themselves?

right!

That's it!

Kate suddenly became excited.

Later, Harry Potter was adapted into various computer games. Why can't I do this myself?

Of course, computer games are out of the question, and Catherine is thinking of the aborted trpg plan.

If it is a trpg, maybe it will be ok!

The so-called trpg is a tabletop role-playing game. People play the characters in the game, and then they are judged by dice and referees. Dungeons and Dragons is the most famous representative of it. And this game will also be played in the future.

It will be adapted into a computer game.

Why don’t you develop in this direction?

right!

Catherine became excited.

If you have tabletop games, it will be much more convenient for you to launch electronic games of the same type in the future. And dnd doesn’t know how much money it has made by selling game copyrights, so why don’t you do this?

Not only in this aspect, even your own clothing design shop can design pieces of cosplay costumes for these enthusiasts.

You know, Americans are no less enthusiastic about cosplay than Japan, and what they pay most attention to is that cosplay must be realistic.

The idea is good, but there is still a big problem before us——

That is, I bought out the copyright to the paper book company. Although there are only the first three books, it is still a bit inconvenient to use them.

It would be great if it could be changed to authorization.

Catherine thought for a moment and then picked up the phone.

"Hello, this is Robert."

A familiar voice came from over there.

"I am considering letting Paperback Publishing House be responsible for publishing the next four Harry Potter books... However, I hope to modify the contract..."

Fortunately, although she had already started writing the fourth part before this, she did not discuss signing the contract with the paper book. Although the price offered for the paper book was very high, she always felt that something was wrong at first, so

That matter was put aside for the time being, and I just told the paper book company that I still have a few novels, but I have no plans to write them yet - in fact, I have almost finished writing them.

But now, he finally has a bargaining chip.

Although Robert is just a dazed young man, the other party is very diligent. At least the content of his conversation with the other party today will be transmitted to the editor-in-chief's ears in ten minutes.

She guessed correctly, and soon she got a call from the paper book publisher.

The other party agreed to buy out the copyright and turn it into Catherine's exclusive authorization, but they required that the authorized publishing house could only have one paper book publishing house, and it could not authorize it to other publishing houses within 5 years. If it were to be published in Europe, it would also have to be

Priority will be given to branches of paperback publishing houses.

Moreover, the paperback book publisher will also insert an advertisement in the hardcover edition, which is a preview advertisement for the tabletop game.

"Harry Potter" is a slow-burning novel. The sales of the first two volumes were very good, but this was not its glorious period. It's just that in astronomy, authors with high royalties first appeared, and then the scale effect was formed, and then they took the lead.

.

Although the differences between the countries and systems led to different paths between the two, the vision of the paper book publishing house cannot be underestimated.

Now they have temporarily decided on the contract intention over the phone, and then as long as they sign another contract, the matter will be settled. Of course, Catherine's contract must also have the signature of the guardian.

"Okay, there's only one next question."

The problem is to formulate a popular rule.

With this rule, Catherine first targets the middle class who buy hardcover editions.

In fact, only the middle class and above are the ones who have the time to play tabletop games.

No……

Catherine suddenly thought of another group.

--child.

Many things in the United States have been "bombed" since a person was a child. Barbie dolls, Transformers, etc.

Some people say that the reason why Americans are "nostalgic" is because these things have given them strong hints of brainwashing since childhood.

No matter what, if you capture the children's hearts, it will be considered a success.

Moreover, there is that sentence: "Whoever can boldly underestimate the IQ of Americans will be successful."

Catherine does not have the twenty-year hibernation like in "Dungeons and Dragons".

She wants to make a splash.

Therefore, the rules of this game must be simple and easy to use. If this is the case, the complexity must be reduced in a large area.

Catherine was just thinking about introducing two sets of rules, one for adults and one for children.

But now, she has changed. There are still two sets of rules, but they have become a "public version" and a "professional version". And the model design also requires two sets, one Q version for children and one for adults.

of.

The popular version is simplified rules, while the professional version is similar to the DND rules that appeared later - although many Americans are slow, smart Americans will give every rule maker a headache, and they

Usually characterized by Jewish ancestry.

The former has a great degree of freedom and allows everyone to have fun, while the latter focuses more on role playing.

Having said that, the simplified rules for the public version alone took Catherine more than a month, and it was not until May that the basic rules were completed.

After all, the original Harry Potter plot is not suitable for making into a game because there is no "upgrade".

Therefore, Catherine had to modify the plot and highlight the power system a little. In order to make the storyline reasonable and have a setting consistent with this power system, Catherine had a hard time. In the end, she finally came up with a

A passable version.

As for the model design, it was relatively simple. Catherine's uncommon painting skills finally came into play again.

Various character sketches were drawn by Catherine, but it would take some time to make the actual ones.

Time is gradually moving towards June, and Catherine's second signing is coming soon.

Catherine had high hopes for this signing. It was not just the hype of board games and Blair Witch, but Catherine also had a premonition that this would be her American dream.
