Chapter 445: A Game Under the Warhammer Rules
Important people are always long overdue.
And inconsequential characters usually come early, in this meeting between Jester and the game workshop, although Jester has asked for the other party, but Jester's own status is too lofty, he can't be the weak party at all, and no one dares to act as the active party in front of Jester.
Jester arrived at the time he had agreed, not too late, and at this time, the people in the game workshop had been waiting for almost half an hour.
When they saw Jester arriving surrounded by bodyguards, they immediately stood up, but Jester had always disliked putting on a show, and he walked forward quickly, stretching out his hand to shake hands with the people in the game workshop.
"Fortunately."
Jester took the initiative to speak, which also made the people in the game workshop less stressed.
The person who came to the game workshop this time was their creator, Tom. Kebby, with a smile on his face: "Mr. Li, I also read the newspaper this morning to find out that you are the chairman of Manchester United." ”
Although newspapers such as The Times don't usually cover sports news on their home pages unless they are very influential, there hasn't been much international news lately, so the news of Jester's appearance in the chairman's box at Manchester United's home stadium yesterday also made the front page of The Times.
While; However, there are no headlines.
Jester didn't hide it, he just smiled, and on the way here, he also read a copy of the Times, like this newspaper, as a nobleman with a long history in London, a Times was basically a given, even though Claudia did not inherit her father's title.
"I just love football, so I bought Manchester United, and it seems like I'm the first foreigner to buy a League One team?"
Before we started talking about Warhammer, Jester had a casual conversation with the people at the Game Workshop about something inconsequential. Before the formal conversation, liven up the atmosphere.
"Warhammer is a great rulebook, and I love it."
Jester felt that it was almost enough, so he went straight to the point and turned the conversation directly to Warhammer, which was also the main thing he wanted to do with the other party this time.
And when Jester talked about the warhammer, the faces of the people in the game workshop who had just been chatting cautiously without a word immediately showed joy, and they hurriedly said modestly: "It's just something insignificant." ”
Jester knocked on the side and tried a few words, and found that the game workshop was still a little difficult.
Although they put their posture very low. They also respect themselves very much, but it seems that they really have no intention of giving away the rights to the Warhammer, and from their demeanor and words, Jester can feel that they cherish the Warhammer rules they have created.
Of course, Jester believes that as long as he keeps raising prices, the bulls will still give in. But then it doesn't make much sense.
Moreover, according to Jester's knowledge of the game workshop, they were listed on the future London stock exchange, and by the time they went public. As long as you want to, or do you rub it flat and round with yourself?
Therefore, after Jester saw the other party's insistence again, he gave up the idea of directly taking the Warhammer rules down. Instead, I talked about the changes in the game.
While Jester was discussing the Warhammer rulebook with the people at the Game Workshop, Claudia was in the company. Teach me about the fact that she has been away from the company for a while - of course, it doesn't mean that she will leave the company, take a two-month break with Jester, and then spend the first half of next year preparing for the wedding, and then not pay attention to the company's affairs.
She's just not in London, like some important things in the company, you still need to report to her at any time, and, even if there are no heavy things, every other week, you need to fax some of the company's reports to her, and now that the traffic is so developed, even if every once in a while, he flies back to London to deal with it, there is no problem.
Besides, she was only not resident in London when Genjester went to Japan and that country, and the time was two and a half months at most, which was not a long time.
After all, the entire company, nearly a quarter of its sales, needs to be completed in the Christmas promotion season, which is a very stressful job.
Luckily, she has a very good assistant.
Yelia. Ted, the head of the marketing department, is a marketing talent that Claudia dug out of RR, and in just two years, he has perfected Mars Entertainment's sales network throughout Europe, although it has cost a lot of money, but in Claudia's opinion, it is also completely worth it.
"What, you're getting married?"
Jester's visit to London, Claudia did not hide it from Yelia, her confidant, and there was nothing to hide, and as soon as Yelia entered Claudia's office, she saw that Claudia's complexion was completely different from the end, so she laughed casually.
In fact, this is also a joke from Yelia, she knows how her female boss is a workaholic, working an average of more than 12 hours a day, and sometimes even working up to 18 hours, for any job must be done personally, Yelia has never seen a boss who likes to work so much in more than 20 years in the market.
Not to mention, still a woman.
But what she didn't expect was that after hearing her joke, Claudia's face turned red, which surprised Yelia.
You know, she used to tease Jester after she came to London or Claudia went to Los Angeles and came back, but she would always say nothing with a straight face, and then lead her words to work, but this time, Claudia didn't have the same straight face as before.
Instead, she bowed her head slightly, trying to hide the reddish color on her cheeks.
"It's true!"
This time Yelia's tone had become extremely surprised, of course, there was a look of joy in her eyes, she was more than twenty years older than Claudia, and she was from RR, she also knew the relationship between Claudia and RR, besides, she and Claudia's biological mother were still friends.
Therefore, she is also very happy that Claudia can get married.
Moreover, before, she also complained that Jester had never expressed his attitude, even if you didn't indicate when you would get married, it was always okay to get engaged first, right?
"He's getting engaged?"
Soon, Yelia, who recovered from the shock, immediately asked Claudia, who she regarded as her own daughter, in her opinion, any so-called sweet words of marriage are not as reliable as engagement, as long as the engagement is over, then basically the other party will rarely regret it.
Moreover, Yelia is also very satisfied with Jester, young and promising, with a successful career, and Claudia are simply a match made in heaven.
"Well, he said he would get engaged next month."
Claudia has always regarded Yelia as her elder, and she also knows that this is her mother's good friend and takes good care of him, otherwise, she would not have given up the opportunity to be nominated as vice president by RR at that time and came to the company that she was just starting up at that time.
"You'll ...... next month"
As if thinking of something, Yelia continued to ask Claudia, but before she could finish, Claudia nodded quickly.
"Yes, I'm going on a trip to Asia with him next month, so if I'm not in the company, I'll have to get rid of you, Aunt Yelia!" As she spoke, Claudia was coquettish to her Aunt Yelia, but for someone like Claudia who never showed her softness, coquettishness was too inconsistent with her own style.
So, Yelia could only shake her head helplessly, she couldn't refuse Claudia's request no matter what.
Besides, it's her job.
"Okay, but you have to promise me one thing." Yelia smiled and nodded, looking at Claudia as kindly and kindly as an elder.
"What's the matter?"
Claudia's tone was a little strange.
"That is, to have a good rest in these two months, don't pay attention to things in the company when you are playing outside, you are too tired in the past few years."
Yelia said it from the bottom of her heart, and Claudia felt the urge to cry when she heard it.
It had never happened to her since her father died, and even when Jester proposed to her last night, she had only moistened her eyes and not felt the urge to cry.
Four Seasons Hotel Imperial.
Jester's negotiations with the Game Workshop are coming to an end.
Picking up the coffee on the table, Jester took a slight sip, feeling the pure and soft mellow taste of pure Blue Mountain coffee from Cuba, and his face was still full of confidence, as if nothing could surprise him.
"RTS games?"
Hearing that Jester was going to make a game about the development of Warhammer copyrights, this surprised the people in the game workshop, they thought it must be an RPG game, but unexpectedly, Jester had an RTS game in mind.
This is a brand new game genre, and it is a game type that has only been known to the world with the "Age of Empires" that has just been released on the carnival, but because "Age of Empires" has not yet been officially released, so, it is only a game workshop that knows what kind of game "Age of Empires" is through some reports, and the understanding of this game is not clear enough.
So, when they heard Jester say that he would develop an RTS-type Warhammer game.
Their cousins would be so surprised. (To be continued......) R1292
