Zhao Shan had put in countless efforts for "Sword", and when he saw the rebirth of the work, he was greatly shaken, his heart was agitated, and his brain was almost hot, and he made an impulsive decision.

But eventually, his blood gradually cooled down and he regained his composure.

Can you eat it as a meal?

Is it worth gambling on the future?

According to Liu Kun's plan, how much can this game be sold for on the Steam platform? About 50,000, 100,000 to the sky! Does pixel software lack this revenue from sales?

Of course not! What the pixel software lacks is the things that Ali Games can provide! Only those things can keep pixel software alive and make a living in this increasingly incomprehensible gaming era!

Zhao Shan shook his head and said, "I'm sorry." I still can't agree. I can't get this game on the shelves. ”

Liu Kun didn't expect that Zhao Shan would be so oily and salty. Even after seeing such an excellent remake, I can still be indifferent.

The other patriarchs didn't know what to do. They didn't have any eyes, and when they saw the remake, they had already changed their attitude and stood on Liu Kun's side. However, according to the rules set by everyone, as long as the general manager does not agree to one thing, it is impossible to implement it.

"Can I say a word?" Li Annan watched the meeting and already roughly knew what was going on.

Annan Lee has no interest in the internal disputes of the pixel software, but these disputes must not affect his interests.

He said, "I got the remake license. In addition to stating that the revenue will be divided into 55 percent, the agreement also says that you will sell it. Please understand that this is my voluntary relinquishment of the resulting reputational benefits, not to mention that you have the right to sell. If you are going to give up this benefit, then I will get it. I'm going to put the game on Steam under the name of 'Amazing Games'. ”

Zhao Shan couldn't help but be stunned, he almost forgot that there was an uncontrollable force in this matter. is the maker of the remake, this young man named Annan Lee.

Li Annan said: "If you want to prevent it from being put on the shelves, you can send a copyright notice to Steam, and of course I will also send a remake authorization on my side." Let the platform determine whether I am infringing. I don't want to get to this point, but I certainly can't let my hard work go to waste. The game will definitely be on the shelves, the difference is that you will be on the shelves or I will be on the shelves. How do you choose? ”

When Zhao Shan heard this, he fell into deep thought, his brows furrowed.

One person persuaded: "Lao Zhao, people are partners." The partner is definitely not willing to drink the northwest wind. If they don't put it on the shelves, will we compensate them for their losses? It's going to be sold anyway, so let's sell it! Rebranded as a pixel software! ”

But after Zhao Shan hesitated, he still stubbornly said: "The reproduction authorization did not have my permission. I'm also not going to let pixel software dabble in single-player games. So I'm not going to agree to remake it for sale. ”

Li Annan shook his head and said: "Then there is no way, I will release a remake of the game as soon as possible under the name of 'Thrilling Games'." After the income is transferred to my account, it will be divided among you after the financial accounting. That's all for today's presentation, farewell. ”

If he were to release the game, he would have to do more than if he had to take the money for nothing. He didn't know the process of putting the game on Steam, and all kinds of things had to be explored step by step. But the current situation can only be hard-headed.

But it will also be of great benefit to him. The remake of "Sword" was released under the name of "Amazing Games" rather than "Pixel Software", which will definitely make his name more famous as Annan Lee.

Seeing Li Annan packing up his things and leaving, Liu Kun hurriedly followed: "Brother, yesterday's hospitality was not good, and I have to make up for it today!" Let's go find a place to talk and have a meal by the way! ”

Annan Lee agreed.

After the two left, the others also left the conference room one after another, and in the end, only Zhao Shan remained.

Zhao Shan was depressed. He could feel that the decision to refuse to release the game just now was very unpopular, and even caused some people to complain.

But there is no way. He can only make such a decision.

Zhao Shan concluded that even if "Sword" was remade, it would not have any repercussions.

For Chinese players, this kind of single-player game has long been behind the times.

For foreign players, this is a Chinese game without any sense of substitution.

Chinese players don't buy it, and foreign players don't accept it. How much can you sell, you say?

Single-player games are dead for a long time, and there is no hope at all. The future of pixel software lies 100% in mobile games!

After the game is released, those dissatisfied veterans in the company now, seeing the pitiful sales, will definitely come to their senses and understand his Zhao Shan's hard work.

……

Li Annan went back, prepared various materials, and submitted an application for registering a company. The full name of the company is "Nanjiang. City Jinghong Game Technology Service Co., Ltd.".

Then he returned to the capital and stayed in an apartment hotel arranged by Liu Kun. Liu Kun, who has rich experience and more connections in the capital, is willing to help Li Annan deal with some pre-release preparations.

For example, the game must have an anti-crack, and Annan Lee has no other clue at all except for Denuvo. Fortunately, with the help of Liu Kun, he selected a foreign company and made the function of online verification.

As long as the game is taken out and sold, it will definitely be cracked one day. Li Annan is mentally prepared for this. Online verification is just a sign that the game makers don't support piracy.

Don't just hit the shelves of the game and the "unencrypted version" is flying all over the sky, asking the website to delete it, and the website still vibrates and says something like "you didn't do anti-piracy, how do I know you don't want to be pirated".

A week later, without any announcement and warm-up, the remake of Sword quietly landed on Steam.

The price is 60 RMB in the national area and 30 US dollars in the overseas area.

Liu Kun has been busy for a week, and he has never been tired, and he is a little worried at this time: "You say, how much sales can we have?" Can there be fifty thousand? ”

"I think I can have a hundred thousand." Ann Lee South Road.

The game has a sentimental bonus and is a childhood memory for many people. The graphics are on par with mainstream games. Back then, a bunch of children played, and the audience was not narrow. Creativity is unique and can make people shine. There are unique fun******* there are so many advantages, it's not too much to fight for 100,000 sales, right?

"If only there were 100,000. If I have 100,000, I will look for investment and make "Sword 2"! Liu Kun said.

If the sales volume reaches 100,000, it will also be of great help to Li Annan. He began to wonder if he should spend some money and engage in some promotional marketing activities to stimulate sales?

……

The news that the remake of "Sword" was on Steam first spread in a very small area.

At night.

A man in a suit came home, put down his bag, and said directly to his wife: "I'm going to play a game today, don't talk about me." ”

"Oh." His wife didn't care about him either, so she agreed. It's estimated that there is a new version of "Warcraft" or "LOL", don't ask, you can only get some unintelligible answers if you ask.

When the meal was ready, she called out and went to feed her daughter. The child eats slowly, his mind is not concentrated, and it takes an hour to finish eating. At this time, she walked out to see that the food on the table had not moved at all, and her husband had not eaten a bite, and was still playing games there.

"What's the matter with you? What time is it and you haven't eaten? She went to Xingshi to ask for guilt in a vigorous manner, and as soon as she rushed to her husband, she saw her husband's eyes red.

She couldn't help but laugh: "Are you playing games and crying? ”

"Nope! How can I cry? The man said with tears in his voice.

"And said no." She was amused and turned her head to look at the screen.

In the center of the screen, there is a knight wearing a hat and holding a long sword, looking heroic. At this time, the swordsman was in a fiery red maple forest, with colorful fallen leaves, and the picture was extremely beautiful.

She couldn't help but wonder: "What kind of game is this?" The Legend of Sword and Fairy? Is the plot touching? ”

""Sword Sealing Demon Record", basically there is no plot. It's just this guy and fighting monsters. As he spoke, the man manipulated the swordsman to cut the monster and show it to his wife.

I saw that on the screen, the swordsman greeted the monster with various moves. The monster floated in mid-air, both arms had been cut off, and the swordsman was still slashing.

The man held down a key on the keyboard at this time, dragged the mouse and threw out a trajectory, and the swordsman in the game immediately issued a special move, the gorgeous light effect flashed, and the swordsman slashed the monster like a convulsion, and finally killed the monster completely.

In the lower left corner of the screen, a line of words floats up: 71 points for combos.

Two things erupted from the monster's side. Gold coins and small purple jars.

"I haven't practiced the moves to the point of mastery yet, but when the combo count goes up in the future, I will be able to score 100 points." The man said.

"That's it?" His wife looked inexplicable, what is this? It's been a long time to hack a monster to death, and you can't get tired of watching it once, but you should get tired of watching it ten times, right? What's the fun?

"It's a game I played when I was a kid. There was a time when I was a kid who loved playing this game. The man said.

He suddenly couldn't control his desire to talk, and said, "Seriously, if it weren't for this game, I wouldn't be like this at all." ”

His wife rolled her eyes when she heard this. Many people who play games like to talk big, learn team spirit, never give up, etc., to prove that they are justified in playing games. In her opinion, it's all. What can only be learned in games? Can't learn those things without playing games?

Playing a game is just playing a game and squandering your time.

But the man said seriously: "When I was a child, my family conditions were not good, and the school teachers were a little snobbish and had a bad attitude towards me. Then I ran to the Internet café in order to escape. At that time, I played this game a lot. ”

"You mean, this game made you vent bad emotions?" His wife said. Thinking back to the battle scene I saw just now, the monster was beaten to the point of blood, with severed limbs and hands, and it was extremely bloody, which might make the boy feel excited.

"It's not. There are a lot of skills in this game that can be used to form combos. I figured out a couple of combo routines and wrote a strategy. I saw that everyone else in the Internet café liked it, so I submitted it to Volkswagen on a whim. I didn't expect it to be published! You can't imagine the expression on the teacher's face when the school radio called me to collect my remuneration! The more the man talked, the more excited he became.
