Chapter 211: IReader Fiction Website
With Henry's approval, Capcom decided to port Street Fighter 2 to home consoles!
Henry doesn't think that just one "Street Fighter 2" can influence the situation between Nintendo and Sega, in that case, it is better to follow the trend! Nintendo's SFC console platform will be in an absolute monopoly position for the next few years!
There are many users who buy SFC consoles, and naturally, the games on the SFC console platform are also sold more!!
In the previous life, only one "Street Fighter 2" could sell more than six or seven million copies of the game on the SFC platform! And the next four or five sequels will also be launched on the SFC console platform one after another, and the sales are also good!!
Relying on SFC, Capcom will make a lot of money!
There is no doubt that between Nintendo and Sega, Henry's choice is the former! So Henry then called the president of Capcom and told him of his decision!
After hanging up the phone, Henry suddenly thought that Capcom's glory in the arcade field would stop at the "Street Fighter 2" series, and then there would be little to do. Later, Capcom, who couldn't get along in the arcade field, was forced to transform into a video game, but he never thought that the first masterpiece "Resident Evil" would be an unprecedented success! And Sony's PS1 was able to counterattack Nintendo, and the role played by "Resident Evil" in it can be said to be a great contribution!!
Umbrella, Skynet, T-virus...... Henry was a little excited just thinking about it. It's just that there's no hurry, your own game console development project hasn't started yet! What you need to think about now is how to make Capcom brilliant after Street Fighter 2!
Henry pondered for a moment, his eyes narrowing slightly, and a glimmer of essence flashed.
"With !!"
Henry hurriedly took out a stack of white paper, spread it on the desk, then picked up a pencil and sketched!
He first painted a woman, a woman who ******** bewitching. If someone who knows her sees it, they will definitely blurt out her name!
She just doesn't know how to dance!! big, sexy, coquettish, and long-legged......
Shiranui Mai is a game character in "Legend of the Hungry Wolf 2" released by SNK Co., Ltd. in 1993, and then shined in the "King of Fighters" series, becoming the most popular female hero, and also the dream object of countless otaku players!
Of course, Henry couldn't have painted just one figure.
He went on to paint a dozen or so figures, such as Kusachikyo, Yagami-an, Daimon Goro, Nikaido Red Pill (Denigami), and so on.
Henry's sketching level is okay, and he also paints seven or eight points.
After finishing the painting, Henry only felt that his hands were a little sore, and when he looked at the time, an hour and a half had passed! Henry stood up, spread his hands, moved his body, and thought to himself, now, he can let Capcom preemptively develop the King of Fighters series of games! This will be a new "The King of Fighters" that belongs to Capcom, which is completely different from the previous life, and all the characters in it will be Capcom's historical game characters plus these characters designed by himself!
Chun-Li vs. Shiranui Mai!
Ken vs. Kusa Keikyo!
Takashi vs. Yagami-an!
The new "The King of Fighters", a new way to play, there is no most shocking, only more shocking!!
After resting for a while, Henry returned to his desk, picked up a pen and named each character, then simply wrote down the main skills of the characters, and when he was done, he called the secretary and asked her to fax it to Capcom Co., Ltd., and instructed them to work on the characters again, and at the same time, set up a new game development department, The King of Fighters!!
The sequel to "Street Fighter 2" continues to be developed, taking advantage of the fact that "Street Fighter 2" is on fire, six or seven sequels will be developed within a year, and Henry thinks it's no problem, although he is a little crazy, but through a hat trick, he can make a lot of money!!
In fact, Capcom was like this crazy development of sequels to make money in his previous life, and at the beginning, the speed of making money was simply eye-popping. It's just that Capcom didn't have moderation, thinking that one trick could eat all over the world, and then no new works were developed, and a sequel was developed around "Street Fighter 2" for several years!
Even if it's a good game, it's time to get tired of playing it in a few years!!
On the other hand, Street Fighter 2 has countless follow-up works, which are extremely serious, and the market is gradually becoming saturated, and as a result, Capcom's game finally can't sell!
This is a classic example of being born in sorrow and dying in peace!
Henry only plans to let Capcom take advantage of the popularity of "Street Fighter 2" and make more money for more than a year first, then launch "The King of Fighters", and finally "Resident Evil"!
The value of the IP of "The King of Fighters" is very high, and the income from games, animations, movies, and peripherals is at least billions of dollars!
If you are purely a game, the pattern will be small.
It's awesome to do IP!
Marvel heroes can make movies, in fact, the game characters in The King of Fighters can, don't they have superpowers?!
If you follow the model of Hollywood blockbusters to add the King of Fighters character to the movie, it is still very interesting!
……
……
When Henry came home in the evening, he began to write the Resident Evil novel. In his previous life, the official novel "Resident Evil" was okay, but it was not classic enough! Henry felt that he needed to write a classic!
Henry is gifted in this life, has a superior memory, and is talented, and over the years, he has read more than ten times more than ordinary people! In addition, he has read a lot of "Resident Evil" fan fiction in his previous life, and it is not difficult to learn from others, take the essence of it, and write an official "Resident Evil" novel that surpasses the official "Resident Evil" novel in his previous life!!
Henry is very confident in this, and when he writes, his thoughts are flowing and the code words are fast!
The sound of the crackling keyboard is endless!
And the speed of the hand is amazing, and it is dizzying!!
In a matter of moments, a chapter is complete.
"Let's write 20,000 words tonight!" Henry took a sip of juice and set the cup aside.
Henry wrote that at 10 o'clock in the evening, he washed up and went to bed.
The next day, he came to the West German publishing house, ready for the West German publishing house to set up a station!
When E.O. Edward Joe heard Henry's words, he was immediately surprised: "Chairman, you mean to ask the West German publishing house to set up a website where you can browse novels on the Internet?"
"Well, that's right!" Henry nodded.
Edward Joe couldn't help frowning, setting up a station, others can read books on the Internet, how can offline physical books be sold!!
"Chairman, this matter is not proper!" Edward said bluntly to Henry, "People read on the Internet that the sales of physical books must be affected!!!
"You're right, the establishment of the station will indeed impact the sales of physical books!" but......" Henry thought for a moment and said, "In this case, you can set up a station first and put some books that can't be sold on it to try the effect!"
"The site we want to build is not a free novel reading website, but a paid website! The novel chapter is divided into a public chapter and a VIP chapter, and the VIP chapter is a paid chapter, and users will be charged according to the number of words in the chapter for each chapter, and one penny !!for one thousand words."
After Edward heard Henry's words, he was immediately taken aback, and couldn't help muttering to himself: "VIP charge?!"
"Yes, VIP charges!" Henry nodded at him, and then said slowly, "In the United States, the price of books is very high, and ordinary people rarely spend money to buy books! However, if you only need one cent to read 1,000 words, and only one dollar to read 100,000 words! I think there will be many people who are willing to read books on the Internet! Although reading books on the Internet has impacted physical books, there are certainly more people reading books on the Internet than buying physical books.
"Also...... Some people don't like to go online because of different audiences. Therefore, we can also sell offline physical books. And some people who read novels on the Internet and think that they are well written, they may also buy physical books for collection! I guess there are not a few such people! So, all in all, I think it is a good choice to build a website!"
After listening to Henry's words, Edward seemed to have some truth, but he couldn't be too sure, and couldn't help but think, then, according to what the chairman said, first put some books that could not be sold on the Internet to sell, and if the effect was good, then promote them......
Because the West German publishing house also pays the author a manuscript fee, it is necessary to communicate with the author of the work to put the book on the Internet for online reading and charging. Henry directly told Edward about two kinds of contracts, one is to share, VIP charges, and the author can collect half;
In these two contracts, it involves publishing rights, film and television adaptation rights, etc., which can be subdivided into many kinds. However, if a full copyright agreement is signed, then the site's recommended resources will be biased towards such works!!
After listening to Henry's instructions, Edward went to set up the station. The name of the website, Henry has already thought of it, is called "ireader station"!
Because of its own conditions, it can be said that the establishment of a station is extremely advantageous. Not only does it have novels, but it also has a wide network of people in the circle, which can attract many writers to enter the ireader station, so the ireader station started very high at the beginning!
