"Mr. Chu, hello."

Chu Ge's voice came from the other end of the phone: "Mr. Yang?" I'm Chu Ge, the general manager of Galaxy Network, and I would like to talk to you about the distribution of the game "The Binding of Isaac". ”

"No problem, it's in the officially registered game business chat room." Yang Chen smiled.

The development of the game industry can be said to be very standardized, not only the professional title certificates and ratings of various professions in the game industry.

The legal side is also well taken care of for niche indie game production teams.

For example, the game will be officially registered for the record, and at the same time, the business cooperation will also be carried out in a special official chat software, and the official will also have a special lawyer to review the contract to ensure that there will be no fraud, and the conversation between the two parties will also be recorded.

Of course, after the end, you also need to pay a small fee to the lawyer and the official who provided the service.

"Okay, what about the timing?"

"Is it okay at half past three this afternoon?"

"No problem."

After a short exchange, Yang Chen hung up the phone, and Wang Yaliang, who was eavesdropping next to him, came over: "Do you fancy the people who play our game?" Which company is it? NetDragon, Tenghua or Phoenix? ”

"It's not the big three, it's a small publishing company, Galaxy Network." Yang Chen put down the phone, pinched Wang Yaliang's face and said.

"That's right." Hearing that the scale was not very large, Wang Yaliang was a little disappointed.

"Don't be disappointed, in fact, even if the three big ones find me, I won't agree." Yang Chen shook his head and said.

There is no doubt about the scale of the resources of the three major ones, but the appetite of the three major ones is also not small.

A small maker like him can be said to have no say in front of the three major ones.

"Yes, you're talking as if the big three are already sure to take your game." With a snap on Yang Chen's hand, Wang Yaliang pursed his lips, but then showed a puzzled expression, always feeling a little familiar: "I seem to have seen this name somewhere." ”

Yang Chen laughed: "Of course I've seen it, my last game was released by them." ”

"Or are they?" Wang Yaliang's face was a little strange.

Although Wang Yaliang doesn't know much about the game industry, he also knows that Yang Chen's last game made the publisher lose a lot of money.

But now the publisher who lost a lot of money has come to the door again, what's going on?

Is the game really good? Let them ignore their past failures; Or is it simply their vision that is problematic?

But without waiting for Wang Yaliang to open his mouth to tease Yang Chen, the phone rang again next to him.

"Hello, is this Mr. Yang? I'm Zhang Shaoming, the head of NetDragon's game publishing department......"

"Okay, no problem, it's in the officially registered game business chat room."

Yang Chen hung up the phone, and Wang Yaliang leaned his head over again: "Who is calling?" ”

"Big three! The three major NetDragons. Yang Chen smiled, leaned in front of Wang Yaliang, and pinched the other party's face with both hands: "It's time to eat some meat, it's uncomfortable to pinch." ”

"Don't make a fuss! Speaking of which, it's not that kind of galactic network vision, this game really has potential? Wang Yaliang said in surprise.

Although she herself thought it was quite fun, and even played it in the middle of the night, she didn't dare to say how good her vision was, after all, some of the games she used to like were often big hits.

If you want to say what is the most powerful thing about her favorite game, it is probably the entertainment in the mobile phone.

"Who played until the middle of the night a few days ago and held me to play together, is it so unconfident in my game?" Yang Chen pretended to be very angry and pressed Wang Yaliang on the sofa and said 'viciously'.

"It's not that I didn't have confidence, but I didn't expect it to be like this, and someone came to the door the next day? And the three major NetDragons? Wang Yaliang defended himself.

"So I still don't believe it!" Yang Chen smiled and stretched out his hands.

"Haha, oops, don't make a fuss, itchy...... Ah...... Phone...... The phone rang again. Wang Yaliang, whose face was flushed, patted Yang Chen's arm and pointed to the mobile phone that was ringing and vibrating next to him.

'Letting go' of the people under him, Yang Chen hugged Wang Yaliang and connected the mobile phone.

"Hello, I'm Tenghua Games, the head of the independent game publishing department, and I want to talk to you about the cooperation of "The Combination of Isaac".

Tenghua is also here!

Coming to Yang Chen's side, Wang Yaliang, who was listening quietly, his eyes widened, and they also called?

"Okay, at three o'clock in the afternoon, it's in the officially registered game business chat room, okay?"

"No problem."

Yang Chen gave the same wording as before, and then hung up the phone.

After Yang Chen hung up the phone, Wang Yaliang was very excited, and said to Yang Chen a little eagerly: "Tenghua also likes this game?" ”

"Don't get excited, didn't I tell you before, the three conditions are estimated to be difficult for me to accept, and it is almost impossible for the other party to change because of my game." Yang Chen knew very well and understood.

"You're not bragging, are you? You're serious! Wang Yaliang's face showed surprise.

"You always thought I was bragging?!" Hearing Wang Yaliang's words, and seeing the surprise on her face, Yang Chen only felt that there was a black line on his head.

He has full confidence in the dream memory of this "Isaac's Bondage", but he also has a very clear awareness, this game is at most an excellent game in front of the three, but it is not the only one.

Without the protection of official regulations, almost the next day, using their three major codebases, as well as the material library, they would be able to immediately make a game with the same gameplay, or even better graphics, UI, art, music, and related physical expression.

No way, who makes others rich and technological?

Creative gameplay is the most valuable thing in the gaming industry, but it is also the most susceptible to theft by others.

Don't have a good game idea? It doesn't matter, it's okay to have money.

In Yang Chen's dream memory, he saw a company that raised penguins and pigs, and he loved to do this kind of thing since he made a fortune in the early days.

Something is popular, he comes to buy you, you don't agree with him, he copies you, and then relies on the power of capital, copying better quality than you, and finally building a game empire.

However, fortunately, although there are such domineering and shameless game cancer companies in reality, the relevant laws and regulations give game creators a good protector.

A short period of protection for creative gameplay is already very rare, at least for game makers who rely on creative gameplay, a channel to succeed.

Instead of a game that I worked hard to make for a year or two, just after its release, it was plagiarized and suppressed by a huge capital force.
