Super Game Empire

Returning to the capital lightly, Yang Yun found Alexey openly this time.

Negotiations to authorize Tetris have entered the final and tense stage.

Yang Yun found Sega to endorse, and deliberately brought Sega's Nagano into contact with Alexey, which shocked Nintendo's intelligence officers into a cold sweat.

It was easy to find out what Sega came to talk about and what the specific content was. There was no need for Nintendo's commercial spies to bribe Nagano's translator. Alexei himself would inadvertently reveal a few words to Uchiyama Takeru.

"Oh, Sega contacted us and showed interest in Tetris!"

"Sega is very sincere. For sales of more than 10 million units, they can pay US$2, haha..."

"No, no, no, Nintendo is our first priority. Why would we cooperate with Sega? Mr. Uchiyamatake, you are too sensitive. I just like to see Sega's eagerness and ugliness!"

What is true is also false, and sometimes false is also true. Only Yang Yun and Alexei know it in their hearts. The two of them turned their hands into clouds and rain, and played the two super companies Nintendo and Sega to death.

And the poor Sega kid never knew that he was just a third-party bargaining chip in this business negotiation. Regarding the Tetris patent, Yang Yun actually had no sincerity in cooperating with their Sega. They were just Yang Yun's attempt to force Nintendo to make concessions.

, it’s just a smoke bomb released!

Since Nintendo already knew that Sega was interested in Tetris and had already entered the quotation process, after urgent negotiations with the headquarters, Uchi Mangtake signed an agreement with Alexey and Yang Yun on behalf of Nintendo.

The Tetris game is licensed to Japan's Nintendo Co., Ltd., and charges are based on the number of copies of the game. Nintendo pays the patent fee at US$1.5 per copy. The game carrier is not limited to GameBoy or FC, and can also be transplanted to arcades. The total contract period is twenty

Years (the maximum number of years of patent protection for video game software), the price can be reset every two years, and the price increase cannot exceed 10% each time (that is, the maximum price during the contract period will not exceed US$4 per copy), and Nintendo has priority

Buy out the rights to the full copyright of the Tetris game.

The price Alexei paid was that after exclusively licensing Tetris to Nintendo, he could not license it to any other game console manufacturer in any form for profit, except for the production of derivatives of PC software for personal computers.

Nintendo had no intention of expanding into personal computers, and Yang Yun would not allow Nintendo to take away the computer software license, so Alexei happily signed the licensing contract after bargaining with Nintendo.

With the unique humility of the Japanese, Uchiyama bowed to Alexei, shook hands, and said sincerely: "Mr. Pajitzhov, from now on you will be our most important partner of Nintendo. I hope that we can cooperate sincerely and jointly develop the game business."

territory!”

Alexei looked indifferent: "Nintendo is a very powerful, very rare, and best partner. We will continue to launch new game software and look forward to our continued cooperation in the future. Nintendo will always be our first priority partner!"

"

He handles official business, speaks impeccably, and has mastered the essence of diplomacy.

Behind the scenes, you might scold the other person in some way!

Nintendo is a listed company, and everything is based on contracts, openness, transparency, and rules, so the two of them are not afraid of making small moves.

After sending away Nintendo's negotiating team, Alexey's tense face quickly bloomed like a cornflower, and he excitedly picked up Yang Yun. This tall Russian white bear almost strangled Yang Yun to death.

"Yang! I finally understand why you have to argue!"

After signing the licensing contract, Nintendo's first purchase contract was handed over, a purchase order for 1 million game cartridges, with a total patent licensing fee of US$1.5 million, which almost made Alexey lose his temper on the spot.

Although this figure was within Yang Yun's expectation, the first game card order had 1 million copies. Nintendo was determined to win the North American handheld market, and it also shocked Yang Yun!

Yang Yun was filled with admiration. No wonder Nintendo can achieve more than 90% of the global market share. It is really a big deal!

Although the price of 1.5 US dollars is three-quarters lower than 5 US dollars, compared with the segmented distribution, 1 million units are 1 US dollars, 10 million units are 2 US dollars, and 10 million and above are 3 US dollars. Nintendo is confident to sell more than 10 million units.

, judging from the fixed price of $1.50 per set, Nintendo still has a big advantage.

As for its own profits, Nintendo has many ways to leave their own profits, which is probably more than 5 US dollars per card.

It’s a win-win!

Yang Yun was very satisfied with the price. He was not unaware of Nintendo's terrible sales in the future, but he still signed the contract.

Because now he wants to compete for time and speed, instead of caring about the millions of dollars. For him, he only needs a small start-up capital, 1 million US dollars and 5 million US dollars, the effect is the same

of.

What's more, if he insists on high prices, Nintendo may really give up. At that time, he will have no choice but to seek cooperation with Sega. Not only will he not be able to get high-priced royalties, he will also have to be hostile to Nintendo. The gain outweighs the losses.

ah.

Now, he has no capital to fight against Nintendo.

For a 1 million licensing order, Nintendo had to pay Alexei 1.5 million US dollars in patent royalties. Divided into 30-70, Yang Yun could get 1.05 million US dollars, immediately becoming a millionaire, and still a millionaire. According to the current market conditions at the time.

The black market price, converted into RMB, is already tens of millions.

Both of them were very excited about the contract.

After the celebration, Yang Yun said: "Alexei, do you want to hear my advice?"

Alexey was excited: "Yang! I'm so lucky to meet you! I seem to have seen the beautiful and plump Russian girl waving to me, saw the vats of vodka, tons of caviar, and the beautiful cranberry flowers.

Bloom to me! Stalin on top, oh, damn it, you say it, I’m listening!”

Yang Yun smiled: "According to the agreement between us, you will get a share of 450,000 US dollars. Although this amount of money seems to be a lot, it is far from enough, and we are not enjoying it yet. I suggest you go to the United States.

Register a company to specialize in this matter, because in the next twenty years

We will all be dealing with Nintendo for years, and I want you to keep an eye on Nintendo. The more they sell, the more we make! Alexei, don’t you want to get into the game industry? You went to the United States,

Maybe you will get more, please trust my judgment, it is absolutely not wrong!"

Alexei nodded: "Yang, I understand what you mean. Again, long live the friendship between the Chinese and Soviet people! Leave this matter to me."

Yang Yun nodded: "I believe you too. Alexei, you first establish yourself in the United States and immigrate there. Maybe I will follow you and join you in a few years!"

Yang Yun is sincerely doing Alexei good. There is not much time left before the collapse of the Soviet Union. He went to the United States in advance to avoid the limelight and exchanged all his assets for hard currency US dollars. It is definitely better than the rubles he exchanged for the 450,000 US dollars.

, it is much better to go back to Russia and be a rich man. In two years, the ruble will be almost worthless!

As agreed, Alexey came to New York alone and registered a computer software company, named Karinka-Tetris-Technology-Co. Ltd., abbreviated as KTT, and its Chinese name is Cranberry Cube, which specializes in computer game software.

Development, the company has only two shareholders, and Alexey is the one who coordinates and operates externally.

Yang Yun became a stealth investor, and almost no one knew that he was KTT's largest boss. He stayed in China, and now that he has money, he can finally make a big splash.

When Yang Yun left Big Overlord Company, he signed a simple agreement, guaranteeing that within one year after leaving Big Overlord Company, he would not use the source code of Snake, Tetris, Pac-Man, and Tank Battle for himself.

Make profit.

In other words, although DaBaWang Company did not prohibit Yang Yun from engaging in the same industry, the ownership of these four games should belong to DaBaWang Company. Yang Yun cannot give it to others to use, otherwise he will violate the agreement and will be punished by DaBaWang Company.

The company went to court, and Director Feng of the group's human resources department warned that if Yang Yun violated the agreement, Dabawang Company would jointly and severally hold him responsible for the first leak.

This kind of agreement that restricts competition is very common. Even Zhao Yongping was forced to sign a three-year anti-competition agreement when he left Dabawang Company and founded Bubu Sheng Company alone. Zhao Yongping could not produce game consoles within three years, otherwise he would have to

Pay Dabawang Company a huge amount of liquidated damages.

Being restricted from using the source code of four games and forced to give up the ownership of these four games is no problem. However, after breach of contract, they are still held accountable for the inexplicable leak last time. I can only say that Big Overlord Company is too cruel.

There is no human touch at all!

Using all the benefits from the four games in exchange for his freedom, Yang Yun no longer owes the Overlord anything. He has no psychological pressure at all now. There are thousands of classic games, and one year will pass quickly. As long as he

Once we have established a firm foothold, what if the output value is 1 billion? Yang Yun is not afraid at all.

Of course, before establishing his own company, Yang Yun still has one thing to do, which is very important and necessary - visit Sega again!
