Chapter 303: Who's Pit Whom
"There is indeed this case, and our company has more than a dozen games that are interested in investing in the Chinese market,"
Park Jae-yuk was in high spirits, as a company that has not been established for too long, and the business situation is very general must be changed, and in the face of the narrow Korean market, the basic solidification of the situation, the company decided to turn to the Chinese market, although the average computer ownership rate of 100 people there is far less than South Korea, but the base is huge, and now the number of players is actually not less than South Korea.
Of course, due to the distribution of various places, it is not easy to develop, but the company has no other way.
"I heard that your company has a legendary game,"
Han Zhifeng asked.
Park Jae-yu was stunned, and then hurriedly said,
"We do have this game, which is rolling out quite well in South Korea and has a large number of players,"
Park Jae-yu said as he turned on the computer to show Han Zhifeng.
Han Zhifeng listened with a faint smile, in fact, he knew very well that this game was not good in South Korea.
If there are a large number of die-hard loyalists in South Korea as Park Jae-wook said, ACTOZ can still be in this dilapidated place, you must know that not only Chinese companies pay attention to façade, but also South Korea, in this place, partners will doubt the strength of the company at a glance, the game industry is a lucrative industry, if the operation is good, the company will be profitable and will have moved out of this place long ago, so the company's business situation is very average, and it cannot afford to rent a better office space.
This Park Jae-wook is digging a hole for him at all.
"President Park, we are quite clear about the operation of the legendary game in South Korea, we have been here for almost half a month, to be honest, it is very average, I even doubt that the production company has recovered its investment,"
Han Zhifeng's beating immediately made Park Jae-yu's face blush, he really didn't expect this Chinese man to be such a chicken thief, he had already finished inspecting the market, and he was out of it.
"It can't be said to be very ordinary, but it hasn't achieved the expected explosive effect,"
Park Jae-wook is thick-skinned enough, and he will recover as usual in just a while, so it's no wonder that it doesn't matter if he is frustrated a lot.
"However, if you're a little disappointed with this game, then I can recommend other games for you,"
"No, I'm still very interested in this game, although this game is generally built, not very playable, but it is suitable for novices, most of us are new players in our country, and they may not be able to adapt to the introduction of overly complex games immediately, so this game is very suitable, of course, I don't hope for any big sales, our Internet café alliance wants to switch to the agency game industry, it's good to get started with this game first, even if the loss is not too big. ”
Han Zhifeng came out of this game little by little, so that Park Jae-wook threw away unrealistic fantasies, and he didn't plan to make money when he took it, it was just a stepping stone, so the thought of killing him with a knife can be stopped.
Park Jae-wook felt a headache, this Chinese man was very clear-headed, and when he negotiated with such a clear-minded person with a clear goal, he knew that if he wanted to succeed, he could only lower his requirements.
"Okay, I admit that the situation of this game in South Korea is very average, but there are companies that actively introduce our company's games, and the annual agency fee is millions of coins, and then there is a 30% revenue share,"
Park Jae-wook said the content of the contract between him and the agency company,
"And the market in China may be several times that of the bend, in this case... ”
Think about what Park Jae-wook means, how can it be several times the agency fee, or are you embarrassed to say it, how thick-skinned it is.
The problem is that in this regard, it is the honor of an entrepreneur to take benefits from the other party, and it is a glory that can be blown for a lifetime, otherwise it is a black spot for a lifetime, and Han Zhifeng is no exception.
"It's impossible, let me put it this way, last year, the number of computers sold in mainland China was only 1.5 times that of Wanwan, so what you said is not realistic, that is to say, there may be more players in Huaxia than in Wanwan, but not too much, and the average cost of games may only be a fraction of Wanwan, so this comparison is completely unfair,'
Han Zhifeng secretly changed the concept, in fact, Huaxia's players are far above the bend, after all, the population is there, but due to the high cost of Huaxia computers, many players are surfing the Internet in Internet cafes, so the real number of players, not to mention crooked nuts, is that the professional institutions of the Chinese people themselves can't calculate, there is only one possibility to find the number of players, that is, a popular game will stimulate the enthusiasm of players, and it will be reflected from the number of active people.
Therefore, Han Zhifeng is bullying this guy and does not know the specific situation of the Huaxia market at all, and the computer sales situation he quoted is true, if only from that aspect, the mainland market is not as good as the crooked market.
Park Jae-wook wanted to pull his hair a little, Nima, this Chinese person is shrewd and terrible, so that all his words are useless, but of course he is not so easy to succumb,
"We can't agree with what you said, there are still more than ten days to go to the legend in the closed beta test, I think we will soon know the market feedback of this game in the Chinese circle, and then we will contact it better,"
Park Jae-wook thought for a moment.
This is indeed his killer feature, if the results of the internal test in the bend are quite amazing, then he believes that the Chinese man opposite will be more obsessed with this game, and he will willingly take out a large amount of money and sign a sharing agreement, he has this confidence.
"Very good, I also think that having such a pathfinder can give me a more accurate expectation of this game in my heart, so let's wait for ten days to meet again. ”
Han Zhifeng said sharply.
He couldn't stop laughing in his heart, the reason why the legend is a legend is in this strange word, and the legend that failed in Korea and Bend was a great success in China, which is an ending that no one can imagine.
So Park Jae-wook is doomed to be disappointed if he wants to test this, he just has to wait.
This is how the two sides ended their first contact,
As soon as the game came to an end, Han Zhifeng took Tan Jing to walk around Seoul and inspect the real estate market.
Han Zhifeng and Xue Na have discussed the establishment of a new company, the company's capital will come from the investment of the three of them and the mortgage of Xin Feng's free store, so that Han Zhifeng and Xue Na are still the major shareholders of the company, this time Tan Jing's shares will be increased to 30%, although Tan Na did not ask for it, Han Zhifeng and Xue Na still decided to do so, the specific manager of the operation does not have a lot of shares in the future, it is better to eliminate this problem in the bud as soon as possible.
The reason why Han Zhifeng asked Tan Jing to take a look in Seoul is to experience the changes in real estate prices at the same time as South Korea's economy takes off, so that she can have an experience for herself, which is something that cannot be seen in China at all, and even in the United States.
After all, the U.S. land area and population ratio, as well as the economy of national tax revenue, have made American real estate destined to be free of East Asian madness.
East Asia's narrow land and dense population combined with economic development have resulted in a frenzied inflation in real estate prices, which is a very rare phenomenon in the world.
Han Zhifeng and Lu Xining also observed the South Korean mobile phone market, at this time Samsung has occupied most of the Korean market, the most important thing is that Samsung took advantage of the opportunity of two successive economic crises to expand against the trend, vigorously introduced production lines and technical personnel from Japan, and built a series of industrial chains for digital mobile phones, which can be said to be complete with chips, LCD screens and other production lines.
Han Zhifeng knows that Samsung's real take-off is a few years later, he can only sigh, he knows a lot of information and knows the benefits of the whole industry chain, but he does not have Samsung's strong funds at all, and the South Korean government's policy has always been to support the big chaebols, through them to drive the take-off of the Korean economy, so in financing, taxes, land prices to them tilted, and in the country this is unimaginable, where private enterprises are not ranked, and support is also state-owned enterprises priority.
Another gain of this trip to South Korea is that Lu Xining has a basic understanding of the Internet economy and enterprises in East Asia, although he knows a lot about the related industries in the United States, but he has no concept of South Korea, this time he realized that South Korea and Samsung, the rapid development of the enterprise in the Internet economy, which will make Lu Xining have a clear understanding of the company's competitors.
Two weeks later, they received a call from Park Jae-wook that their negotiations could continue.
The parties again brought together Actoz,
"The data of this closed beta test has come out, and 30,000 players launched the game at the same time last Saturday night, which can be said to be a preliminary success,"
Park Jae-yu's face was happy, and Korean was already a little high-pitched, and Park Jae-wook at this time was like shouting.
Two of his men were also excited.
In fact, 30,000 online players at the same time are really not a particularly good result, but President Park is also weak-minded, the test results are too watery, and it is not good to inject too much water to make people see through it at a glance.
Han Zhifeng had to admire, well, President Park's acting skills are very good, and he is so elated to inject this data ten times into water, it is really a drama spirit.
"President Park, it's not good for you to treat your partner like this,"
Han Zhifeng sneered,
"The information I got from my crooked friend is that the result of this test is in the early 3000s, tsk, the peak data is in the early 3000s, not good, but a fiasco,"
Han Zhifeng looked at President Park sarcastically,
"This, this is impossible, this is provided to us by the partner, it should be real first-hand data,"
Park Zaiyu's head was already sweating, but he had the usual style of people in this country and was good at hard work, and Ah Q was in a strong spirit.
"Do you want my crooked clerk to ask his friend to call,"
Han Zhifeng lied to him, he didn't believe that this guy was so strong in his heart.
"Uh, this,"
Park Jae-yu does not doubt that the other party can finally get the real data, although the two sides of the strait did not communicate with each other before, but in the past ten years, the mutual exchanges have been much closer, many people in the United States investment work, so the other party will definitely be able to find out the real data, the reason why he injected water is to hope that the other party will be blinded for a while and sign a contract in his favor, as for the later discovery, hehe, that can only blame themselves for being stupid, who cares about his flood.
The key is that the number revealed by the other party is too close to reality, that is, three thousand, not four or five thousand, which means that the other party has mastered the first-hand data, and he will definitely not be fooled, and it makes no sense for him to continue to work hard.
"Since you can't trust me, then there's no point in us negotiating,"
Since he can't sell it at a high price, Park Jae-wook still doesn't give up, it's a big deal if he doesn't sign a contract with this shrewd Huaxia person, and he doesn't believe that no other company has been fooled by Huaxia.
"Hehe, Xining, you said that if I spread this joke in the Pearl Guangzhou Capital, tell me about the real data of the internal test of Wanwan, will anyone come here to introduce this game?"
Han Zhifeng asked Lu Xining beside him.
"This can't be.,The internal test indicators are still very indicative.,I want to see the highest number of people online at the same time in the internal test.,The bosses have no idea,"
Lu Xining mended the knife.
Park Zaiyu is very angry, although Huaxia is big, there are only a handful of powerful game agencies, all in a few cities, the circle is not big, if someone spreads out the legend's internal test data, the legend's reputation in Huaxia will be mentioned, and then it will be really like this Chinese people say, who is so brain-dead to introduce a failure.
"Okay, you tell me your conditions,"
Park Jae-wook only made a move, he had no doubt that this person could do it, so it was better to get rid of it as soon as possible.
"Two hundred thousand dollars to buy out this game,"
Han Zhifeng shouted the price, don't think about it,
"It's impossible, don't want to take this game without dividing it,"
Park Jae-wook gritted his teeth and said.
"President Park is still realistic.,The premise of sharing is that it's possible to make a profit.,Now the results of the internal test show that the best result is no profit or loss,"
Han Zhifeng shook his head and refused.
Park Jae-wook has to admit that this is true, at least the crooked agent is now repentant.
"Okay, don't talk about sharing, you can buy out, but this price will definitely not be,"
Park Jae-wook said unwillingly.
"Then you say a price, don't go too far,"
Han Zhifeng said.
"One and a half million dollars,"
Park Jae-wook named his price.
"It's impossible, so we don't want to negotiate at such a fixed price, 800,000 US dollars, you think I can sign and pay immediately, if you think it can't be, I'll leave immediately,"
Han Zhifeng said.
Park Jae-yu is entangled, well, is the other party really fanciing, or is he choosing an introductory game at random, he can't see through this now.
"Okay, since President Park is unwilling, let's talk about it again,"
Han Zhifeng got up and said with a smile, without dragging his feet and not leaving.
He really doesn't care, it's a big deal to change the leader and change the name of the company to renegotiate here, anyway, he is determined to eat this President Park.
"Okay, that's the price,"
Park Jae-wook said coldly, well, I hope you don't regret it.
"Okay, but before signing the contract, will you help me get the real developer of this game, emade, after all, the real developer of this game is that,"
Han Zhifeng smiled.
Park Jae-wook was shocked, he didn't expect the other party to know that Actoz was just an agent, not a real developer.
Actoz has its own games, but most of them are games from various game companies, and Legend is designed and developed by emade, but it was bought out by Actoz.
Speaking of being able to buy out, it was because the effect of the small-scale closed beta after the development of the legend was not good, so the emade company decided to sell the game, so Actoz bought it out, and the cost was not large, that is, 400,000 US dollars, and also signed a maintenance agreement, Actoz is not able to maintain the operation of this game now, so it is still necessary for emade to send people to operate it.
He just wanted to pit Han Zhifeng, after signing a contract with their company, he didn't care about the operation, Han Zhifeng needed to talk to emade himself, as for how much it would cost, hehe, that company was not good, and it couldn't spare this Chinese person.
I didn't expect the other party to know everything about their company's situation, this person, how could he be so shrewd, it's really hell.
"Why, it's a bit of a surprise, but there are not a few agents who can't maintain operations in the game field, you don't think I'm such an idiot, right, sign a contract without investigating clearly,"
Han Zhifeng was laughing, but in Park Jae-yu's opinion, this smiling face was really hateful, and he really wanted to throw a few punches to relieve his depression, but he could only be lustful.
"Okay, I'll coordinate that,"
Park Jae-wook was completely deflated, he knew that he didn't have time to win a game, and it was a good income to earn hundreds of thousands of dollars.
The group came to emade, which was a lot taller than Actoz, and it was clear that the company was doing quite well.
And the person who came forward to meet them was only the head of the marketing department, because it was enough for Actoz to have such a reception.
"Legend II,"
The head of the head office of the sex Zhang did not expect that the customer from Huaxia would propose to let them start the production of Legend II.
"This has already begun, and now it should be a third of the way according to the progress, so let's delay a little,"
Minister Zhang thought about it and said, in fact, the development progress can not be said at all, this is the company's secret, but he is not too interested in the legendary project, this project is profitable, but not much.
"In this way, I hope to be able to complete Legend II in three months, I don't know if I can,"
Han Zhifeng asked.
"Well, it seems that there is some shortage of personnel,"
Minister Zhang shook his head, he was really not interested, and he didn't want to continue to invest in this unprofitable project.
"What if I say I offer a $150,000 investment,"
Han Zhifeng's words surprised Minister Zhang,
"Why are you so anxious, you must know that Legend One did not introduce Huaxia,"
A Huaxia agent who has not yet signed a contract has not yet seen how the effect of the legend is so eager.
"Oh, that's right, I played this game myself, it seems to be a little unbearable to play, it won't take long to attract players, if there is no legend two, I'm afraid the players who attract it can't stay too long, I hope to have a backup of the legend two as soon as possible, if the popularity of the legend one subsides, I can have a game to keep up with immediately, after all, the production and then changed to the Chinese version plus the internal test, this time will be more than six months. ”
Han Zhifeng's words did not arouse Minister Zhang's alarm at all, because what Han Zhifeng said was the truth, and the problem of the short vitality of the legend had already been exposed, which is also the reason why the company did not attach much importance to this game, and what Han Zhifeng said was very reasonable.
"Well, if you can provide the funds, I don't think that's a problem,"
Of course, Minister Zhang welcomes it, after all, the development of Legend II will first be put into the Korean market, and then its Huaxia version will be put into Huaxia, and the Huaxia company will advance the money, so the money is basically made in vain.
And so the agreement was reached.
Then Minister Zhang got another surprise, this Chinese can send more than 20 Chinese people to help speed up the process of Huaxia, this is simply, hehe, the more Minister Zhang looks at this Chinese person, the more pleasing it is, of course he agreed, of course the code farmer who gave it away for free will accept it.
