I want to make a game
Chapter 17 Twelve Million Dollars
Li Huagui and others were also stunned now. Ten million US dollars! In this era, it was an unimaginable huge sum of money no matter who it was. They looked at each other excitedly and almost agreed on behalf of Liu Zhiyuan.
"Drink tea, drink tea." Liu Zhiyuan reached under the table and pinched himself hard.
"Liu Jun!" Morihiro Suzuki stood up when he saw that Liu Zhiyuan was still unwilling to discuss the price.
"Sit down, sit down. Why are Suzuki-kun so excited? Come on, let's talk about how to get these ten million dollars." Liu Zhiyuan sighed inwardly. It seems that this is really Sega's lowest price. No.
If you push any further, do you really want to wait for Nintendo to come? Then Liu Zhiyuan can't guarantee that he can still control the situation.
"Sorry, I lost my composure." Suzuki Morikuan took a breath and sat down.
"Liu Jun, I can guarantee you that these three games of yours will not sell for more than 10 million US dollars at Nintendo!"
Liu Zhiyuan took a sip of tea.
"Suzuki-kun, let's not talk about Nintendo. Let's talk about ten million dollars. This ten million should be used to buy all the copyrights of these three games. In other words, if I take ten million, these three games will be the same as
I don’t have anything to do with it anymore.”
"Liu Jun! You have to know, this is 10 million U.S. dollars! The most recent games acquired by Sega only cost 8 million U.S. dollars!"
"Well, one model costs eight million, and here are three models. Twenty-four million is not too much, right?"
Suzuki Morihiro couldn't control his beating temples again.
"Liu Jun! The 8 million I bought is the work of Mr. Suzuki Yu. As a fellow game producer, I think you should understand the reputation of Mr. Suzuki, right?"
"Besides, Liu Jun, your games are not without flaws. I don't deny that they are all good games, but they all have a common shortcoming: lack of depth!"
"Liu Jun! A game's lack of depth means it lacks core players. I'm confident that they can be a hit, otherwise I wouldn't have quoted a price of 10 million US dollars."
"But! They may disappear from the market soon."
Liu Zhiyuan nodded in his mind, it is indeed a giant-level game company. These three games have only appeared on the market for less than three days, and Sega has been exposed to it for less than two days at most. It is possible to tell the difference between a game in such a short time.
Pros and cons, the quality is too high.
Indeed, as Suzuki Morihiro said, these three games lack depth. They have no soul-stirring plots, no exquisite graphics, and no memorable characters.
To put it bluntly, there will be no die-hard fans in the future, and no one will look forward to their new sequels every day. However, Liu Zhiyuan curled his lips when you said they would disappear from the market. There will be more interesting games in the future, but
This kind of casual puzzle game still has its own living space.
"In this case, why don't we try another way? I'll take 10% of the net profit from each substrate, so you don't have to worry about the risk of disappearing in the future."
Suzuki Morihiro was silent. He didn't dare to agree. The scene of these three games hitting the market was just around the corner. Just look at the players lingering at the door and refusing to leave.
"Liu Jun, please tell me your lowest price." He didn't dare to spend more. If he spent any more, Nintendo would really come. He understood the weight of the three words "Nintendo" very well, especially for such a high-quality game, it was an arcade game.
!Nintendo can’t let it go.
"Thirty million dollars! If you nod, I'll sign immediately. From now on, these three games will have nothing to do with me."
Suzuki Morihiro immediately shouted loudly.
"impossible!"
"Liu Jun! In the entire game market, no one has ever spent 30 million US dollars to acquire a game! We at Sega cannot set this precedent!"
Why are you so excited when asking for prices and paying back the money? Liu Zhiyuan didn't want to sell all the copyrights at all. Otherwise, why would he spend so much effort on those cartoon characters? Just draw anything. Of course, if Suzuki Morihiro is crazy,
In order to agree to 30 million US dollars, Liu Zhiyuan signed absolutely. Thirty million US dollars is so worth it to sell a few cartoon characters that will no longer be used.
"Then three million dollars."
Suzuki Morihiro was stunned, and then he immediately realized that this is simply selling games. I can sell it to you Sega, and I can also sell it to Nintendo. In the end, who can build the market depends on their methods.
"Liu Jun! Fifteen million US dollars!" He gritted his teeth and said the number.
"Yes. But the game copyright belongs to me, and you can only use it in the development of these three games and subsequent series."
Suzuki Morihiro was stunned again. If he couldn't get the game copyright, he would really have to buy only three games. There was no way Sega would agree to this.
"Liu Jun! No one! No one will spend fifteen million dollars to buy only three games!"
"Fifteen million dollars! All copyrights can be given to you, including exclusive rights, but the patent for the cartoon image belongs to me!"
Suzuki Morihiro had a complete headache. It was too fatal. Liu Zhiyuan hit Sega's vitality with every blow. The three review teams had already considered how to develop these cartoon characters.
"Mr. Liu, people from Nintendo are here." Li Huagui suddenly interrupted. This sentence was like a needle, stabbing Suzuki Morihiro. He stood up and said emotionally.
"Twelve million dollars! Except for the cartoon character patent, everything else belongs to Sega! Now! Sign!"
Liu Zhiyuan stood up with a smile and stretched out a hand.
“A pleasure to work with.”
Morihiro Suzuki didn't have time to shake hands with Liu Zhiyuan, so he quickly found a contract suitable for the current conditions from his bag and handed it to him.
After Liu Zhiyuan took the contract, he sat down and read it word for word. Time passed by like this. Suzuki Morihiro was restless and glanced at the closed store door from time to time.
"Happy cooperation, Suzuki-kun, you won't stop shaking my hand this time."
Seeing Liu Zhiyuan's signature, Suzuki Mori breathed a sigh of relief.
“A pleasure to work with.”
Suddenly, both of them were stunned, and then they both looked at Li Huagui. Liu Zhiyuan showed an appreciative smile, while Suzuki Morihiro smiled bitterly.
Yes. Nintendo is not someone who can wait for announcements outside the door. If people from Nintendo came, they would have broken in. Liu Zhiyuan read the contract for at least nearly ten minutes.
"I really learned a lesson from you all." Suzuki Morihiro smiled bitterly and sat down, but he was not angry because of the deception. After all, he was still afraid of Nintendo.
"Smoke, smoke." Liu Zhiyuan didn't mention it a word and spread cigarettes to everyone present.
Suzuki Morihiro was smoking a cigarette and looked at the young people present. He suddenly spoke to everyone in a seductive voice.
"Liu Jun, everyone. If you are willing to come to Sega, I can guarantee that I will give you an independent working group of the Han Dynasty. You can settle in Japan and receive personal guidance from Sega's game masters. Yes."
Suzuki Mori generously promised a bunch of conditions that are extremely tempting to ordinary people. It's a pity that the flattery was given to a blind man. Not to mention that Li Huagui and the others would not be able to stay in Japan for a lifetime, and Liu Zhiyuan would not be able to offer him.
When working for Sega, he wanted to help Sega, yes, but he didn't want to make Sega a dominant player.
Liu Zhiyuan smiled and pointed at Li Hua and them.
"Suzuki-kun, next time you make a promise like this, you'd better find out the other person's background first. Their family's combined worth may be greater than that of Sega."
Suzuki Morihiro is not embarrassed either.
"Really? What about you, Liu Jun?"
Liu Zhiyuan was silent for a moment, looked in the direction of Huaxia, and muttered to himself.
"I want to go home. There are many people waiting for me there."
