Chapter 19: Isn't It Amazing?
"Could it be Chang Hexi?" Gao Qiao heard this name, and his whole person was not good.
"What, do you know that person?" Li Er said as he didn't forget to pick up the second matcha cake and stuff it into his mouth.
"Just kidding! Anyone who has been in the game industry doesn't know the name. He's known as the godfather of game criticism! A game with a 0 rating will sell even a triple-A masterpiece, and a game he gives a high rating, even if it's a home-based game, will sell out!
Before Xia Yu could answer, Li Er took out his mobile phone: "Don't you know a thousand degrees?" Chang Hexi, right, by the way, how much is the WIFI password here?"
Tian Fu also took out his customized version of the spade mobile phone and entered the keyword.
Li Er glanced at the search results: "Ninety-eight points? What level is this, is it very high?"
"I'll go, no. It's really ninety-eight points!" Gao Qiao snatched Li Er's mobile phone, glanced at the mobile phone screen, and suddenly his heart was about to jump out, "Really, it's really ninety-eight points, brother, the game you came up with is too godly!"
"Oh, no, are there very few games that reach this score?"
"It's not even less!" Gao Qiao's spit stars were about to spray on Li Er's face, and in front of Li Er, it was the first time he was so excited: "Not at all! If he didn't never give people a full score, you would be equivalent to a full score!"
"I see, I'll see what he wrote. Li Er opened the page that carried Chang Hexi's commentary, which was originally in the form of a long scarf, but was converted into a text report, which read:
“
Recently, on the scarf, a game in a comic book suddenly blew up my personal homepage. My friends in the gaming community have introduced me to this game. I wondered how a game with less than 100 players, released in a café in Shangjing, could turn so many people into tap water? After watching a few related videos, I realized that this game does have its own unique charm.
1. Originality.
Duel Monster Cards are creative in that they reduce the attack and defense power of each monster to a specified value, and set different levels for them. In this game, we can intuitively see whether our monster is strong or not.
At the same time, we can also collect all kinds of powerful and beautiful monsters, mysterious and weird witchcraft. Tong guò uses chains flexibly to win battles.
The charm of this game is how to use traps to counter on the opponent's turn, and in fact, I was reminded of the opponent's fold while playing with a trial card (forgive me for not being able to actually play it live). Sometimes the other person just bluffs, but I am frightened by my own imagination.
2. Ease of play.
Although the Duel Monster Card has several monster cards with different attributes and different races, there are magic cards with strange effects. But it's not complicated. His calculation mechanism is very simple, and if the value of attack power is higher than that of the opponent, the opponent's monster will be destroyed. And the fact that high-star monsters are generally stronger than low-star monsters can also be intuitively seen in the layout of the card.
It takes beginners up to half an hour to get started, and the game can be solved in five to ten minutes.
It's because of the simplicity that this game has been able to spread so quickly. But it's a pity that the genuine game hasn't come out yet, and we can only solve our hunger through guò self-made cards.
3. Details.
If you're careful enough, you'll notice that under each of the usual monsters, there will be a note that introduces the background of the monster. In addition, what kind of story is hidden in the girl on the back of the blue-eyed white dragon...... It seems that the painter has given us a lot of suspense to dig out.
After playing many domestic board games that people can't help but cut off their hands, I didn't expect that the first thing I wanted to praise in my lifetime was a layman's game. Anyway, the interview for this game must be the luck of the player.
Overall score: 98 points. ”
“…… Ju, there is no poisonous tongue?" Gao Qiao looked incredulous. Is it an unacceptable fact that Chang Hexi doesn't have a poisonous tongue, isn't this guy's usual comment bad?
"Actually, I didn't boast about it, why are you making such a fuss. Lear had no idea how they were reacting.
"You, you, do you know what Chang Hexi's ninety-eight points are?" Gao Qiao shuddered and pointed at Li Er.
"I don't know, and I'm not interested in knowing. Lear focused on attacking the third cake in front of him. Isn't it over if the game can be sold, why do you need to know so much?
"I bet that as long as the CEO of a game company knows that you planned this game, they will do their best to poach you, and the salary will make you pay for it!" Gao Qiao had a look of hatred for iron.
"Oh. Li Er swallowed the cake in his mouth, "But I'm very happy with my work now, and I don't really want to change it." ”
"......" Gao Qiao has never seen such a person who can pretend to be forced, and now he just wants to be quiet and restore the character that has already faced collapse.
"Ah, Mr. Gao, I see that the goods in the store are about to be sold out, can you help me transport some more?"
"Of course, I'll go drive. Gao Qiao nodded, he really didn't want to stay under the same roof as Li Er, a pretending criminal, it hurt his self-esteem too much.
"Wait, wait a minute. Tian Fu saw that Gao Qiao was leaving, and hurriedly got up and called out to him.
“…… Who are you?" Gao Qiao wondered a little, what was the matter with this woman, they didn't know her at all.
"Oh, I forgot to introduce myself. I'm Tian Fu, the director of Bandai, and I just overheard your conversation. May I ask if you made this game of duel monster cards?" Tian Fu was glad that he had the habit of carrying business cards with him, otherwise he might have missed a big fish this time.
"Bandai Company, it can't be the world's top 500 Bandai, right?!" Gao Qiao was shocked again.
"You're shocked a bit often today!" said the well-fed Li Er.
“…… What are you kidding, doesn't this shock me? This is the Bandai who developed LEGO bricks, transformable machines, four-wheel drives, and animatronic eggs! It can be said that every boy's childhood is spent with Bandai, I, I'm not dreaming!"
"Thank you for supporting my company's products. Tian Fu bloomed with a commercial smile with his memory, although he was not distracted, he still fascinated an otaku like Gao Qiao. "I want to take the liberty of asking, is the copyright of the Duel Monster game card still in the hands of the two of you?"
"In!"
The smile on Tian Fu's face became even stronger: "That's great, our company is lacking such a unique, easy-to-play, Chinese board game." Please make sure you give me this game. ”
"Of course ......" Gao Qiao wanted to agree, but was interrupted by Li Er. Li Er was afraid that he would be fascinated by Tian Fu, so he sold himself when he opened his mouth. He wiped the cake crumbs from the corners of his mouth and said, "May I ask Miss Tian, what kind of conditions can you make?"
Facing Li Er's question, a funny smile appeared on Tian Fu's face. It seems that this question was expected to be asked, and the answer was prepared in advance.
"I hate bargaining, so I'll get straight to the point. Nationwide distribution, real-time shelf printing, three months later APP shelves. The royalty is five million, after tax. Eight percent of the net profit share. If you feel that the rights are sold too little and are not sure about the future of the game, I can also pay 20 million to buy out. How?" Tian Fu looked at Li Er confidently.
"Well...... "Lean thought for a moment, "Actually, a company has come to us before and made a higher offer." ”
"That's not interesting. I just pulled out the bottom line, but you didn't tell me the truth. In our industry, there will be no companies that bid higher than me. ”
Li Er spread his hands: "Isn't bargaining a normal business practice?" But when you say that, you probably do give the highest price. I'll trust you first. ”
"If you don't have enough money, you can buy out. Not only can you get a lot of money at once, but also transfer the risk to us. Why not?"
"You've got a good hand at calculating. You earn whatever you want!" Li Er spat out.
"Of course not, we have to take risks. You see, I've shown my sincerity. So what is your decision, dividing it, or buying it out?" Tian Fu pursed his lips and showed a ladylike smile.
"Well, I didn't even think so. Li Er turned his head and said to Gao Qiao, "Teacher Gao, what do you think?"
"Ah, ...... me?" Gao Qiao was called coldly, a little unresponsive.
"Of course, you're a serious authorizer. Li Er said.
The copyright of the game Duel Monster Card belongs to Gao Qiao, and Li Er was afraid that Gao Qiao would be fooled, so he negotiated the conditions with Tian Fu. In fact, as long as Gao Qiao wanted to, he could completely leave Li Er and eat alone. Although Li Er created most of the rules of the duel monster card, and even this idea was his, the copyright would not be recognized as such.
If Gao Qiao did this, Li Er would naturally feel guilty. But fortunately, Gao Qiao is not such a person, in fact, Li Er has helped him several times, which has made Gao Qiao a little ashamed. He had always wanted to compensate Lear in other ways.
So he said to Tian Fu: "Most of this game was conceived by Editor Li. If he didn't have his share of this contract, I wouldn't have signed it. ”
Tian Fu apologized: "It's because I didn't think about it thoughtfully. Then Party B will write the names of the two and the remuneration will be half of each, how about it?"
"It's like I'm taking advantage of it. Gao Qiao said a little reluctantly. "Editor Li, you should take it all, I voluntarily give up ownership of this game. ”
Li Er shook his head: "If it weren't for your painting, but relying on my painting, the duel monster card probably wouldn't be able to sell." Don't fight with me, let's take half of each, if you can get this money, you can live a more comfortable life, right?"
"Okay. However, which option should I choose, a share or a buyout? I think the price of the buyout is higher. Gao Qiao was a little undecided.
Li Er leaned over and whispered in Gao Qiao's ear, "No, we have to choose." ”
