I am not a three-thousand-strong vest, and this book is not a follow-up.

Ten thousand years are the same, ask for tickets.

……

By the time Catherine got home, it was already seven o'clock in the evening.

Although she wanted to go back to school, Catherine wanted to be quiet when she thought about last night.

In her spare time, Catherine sat down at her desk and began to write the fourth Harry Potter book.

In fact, it has been completed, but after all, the storyline has been modified by Catherine, so in order not to have bugs, she also checked it and did some "polishing" at the same time.

"Pair Harry and Hermione...... Seems really good. ”

In fact, in Catherine's heart, Harry Potter and Hermione were originally a couple, but she didn't expect to be NTR by Ron later (almost cuckold).

Or maybe this was Aunt Rowling's intention, but Catherine thought about it, but she didn't know whether she should change it or not.

But thinking about it, another thought suddenly appeared in her heart.

Maybe......

Why didn't you make Harry Potter a game yourself?

Since everyone loves Hermione or Harry so much, why not let them chase it themselves?

Right!

That's it!

Kate was suddenly excited.

Later, Harry Potter was adapted into various computer games, so why couldn't he do it himself?

Of course, computer games are out of play, and Catherine thinks of the TRPG plan that was once aborted.

If it's a TRPG, maybe it'll do!

The so-called TRPG is a table role-playing game, in which people play the characters of the game in the game, and then the dice and the referee determine a table game, and Dungeons & Dragons is the most famous representative of it. And this game will be adapted into a computer game in the future.

Why don't you move in this direction yourself?

Right!

Catherine got excited.

If you have a board game, it's much easier to launch the same type of video game yourself. And DND doesn't know how much money it makes by selling game copyrights, so why don't you do it?

Not only that, but even your own costume design shop can design cosplay costumes one by one and give them to these enthusiasts.

YOU KNOW, AMERICANS ARE BY NO MEANS LESS ENTHUSIASTIC ABOUT COSPLAY THAN JAPAN, AND WHAT THEY PAY MOST ATTENTION TO IS THAT COSPLAY MUST BE REAL.

The idea is very good, but there is a big problem in front of us.

That is the copyright I gave to the paper book company, it is a buyout, although there are only the first three, but when I use it, it is a little inconvenient after all.

It would be nice if it could be changed to authorization.

Catherine thought for a moment, then picked up the phone.

"Hello, this is Robert."

A familiar voice came from there.

"For the next four Harry Potter books, I think I'll continue to let the Paper Book Press be in charge of publishing...... However, I would like to be able to modify the contract ......"

Fortunately, although she had already started writing the fourth part before this, she did not talk about signing a contract with the paper book, although the price of the paper book was very high, but she always felt that something was wrong at the beginning, so the matter was put down for the time being, and she just told the paper book company that she still had a few novels, but she had no plans to start writing for the time being-in fact, it was almost written.

And now, I finally have a bargaining chip.

Although Robert is just a stunned young man, the other party is very diligent, at least the content of his conversation with the other party today will reach the ears of the editor-in-chief in ten minutes.

She guessed correctly, and soon, she got a call from the Paperbook Publishing House.

The other party agreed to buy out the copyright and turn it into Catherine's exclusive license, but they demanded that the authorized publishing house could only have one paper book publishing house, and could not be licensed to other publishing houses within 5 years, and if they went to Europe to publish, they must also give priority to the branch of the paper book publishing house.

In addition, the Paper Book Publishing House also inserted an advertisement in the hardcover edition, which was a teaser ad for the table game.

Harry Potter was a slow-burning novel, and the first two sold well, but it wasn't its glory days. It's just that the paper book publishing house is not from the perspective of the future, although it sees the business opportunity of "Harry Potter", but it does not expect it to be so popular.

The Paper Book Publishing House is the largest publishing house in the United States, and the writers who later paid millions of dollars for manuscripts also began to appear from the Paper Book Publishing House, which was very far-sighted and attracted a group of writers with high remuneration and high returns. ,

For example, the paper book publishing house is a bit like a 21st-century Chinese fiction website, where authors with high manuscript fees appear first, then form a scale effect, and then lead the group.

Although the two have different paths because of the differences between the state and the system, the vision of the paper book publishing house cannot be underestimated.

Now they decide on the intention of the contract by phone for the time being, and then just sign another contract, and the matter is done. Of course, Catherine's contract must also be signed by a guardian.

"Okay, there's only one question next."

The question is to make a popular rule.

This rule, Catherine's first target is those middle-class people who buy hardcover editions.

In fact, there are only those who have the leisure time to play table games, and they are only above the middle class.

No......

Catherine suddenly thought of another group.

- Child.

A lot of things in the United States are "bombed" when a person is a child. Barbie, Transformers, and more.

Some people say that Americans are "nostalgic" because these things have given them a strong hint of brainwashing since childhood.

In any case, if you capture the hearts of the children, you will be considered a success.

Moreover, there is the saying: "Whoever can boldly underestimate the IQ of Americans will be able to succeed." ”

Catherine doesn't have twenty years of dormancy like Dungeons & Dragons.

She wanted to be a blockbuster.

So, the rules of the game must be simple and easy to play. In this case, the complexity must be reduced in a large area.

Catherine was just thinking about whether to introduce two sets of rules, one for adults and one for children.

But now, she has changed, and the rules are still two sets, but they have become the "public version" and the "professional version". And the model design also needs two sets, one Q version for children and one for adults.

The popular version is a simplified rule, while the professional version is similar to the DND rules that came later—while most Americans are sluggish, smart Americans are a headache for every rule-maker, and they are usually characterized by Jewish ancestry.

The former has a lot of freedom and allows everyone to have fun, while the latter is more focused on role-playing.

That being said, it took Catherine more than a month to complete the basic rules in May.

After all, the original Harry Potter plot is not suitable for making a game, because there is no "upgrade".

So Catherine also revised the plot for this reason, highlighting the power system a little, in order to make the storyline reasonable, and the setting that conforms to this power system, Catherine can be said to be very nerve-wracking. In the end, she finally came up with a plausible version.

As for the model design, it's simpler. Catherine's infrequently used drawing technique finally came into play.

All kinds of character sketches were drawn by Catherine, but the real thing is made, so it will take some time.

Time is gradually moving towards June, and Catherine's second signing is also coming.

Catherine had high hopes for this signing. More than just the table games and the hype of the witch Blair, Catherine had a hunch that this would be her American dream.

A real one.
