Two days later, Yang Chen met the person in charge of the three major NetDragons to negotiate about the agency distribution, but it was not the previous Zhang Shaoming, but a middle-aged man named Li Qing, the director of the RPG department in NetDragon.

"We're sorry, but we can't accept this sharing clause."

Sitting in the box, looking at the contract brought by the other party, Yang Chen's brows wrinkled unconsciously, and he put down the contract and said with some displeasure.

This time, the other party didn't interfere in the game copyright, but the sharing conditions were too harsh.

Most games choose publishing companies, mainly because they can provide a considerable agency distribution fee, and they can also provide follow-up services for the game, such as community management and feedback operations on major platforms.

For example, if there is any feedback from players and the content of the game, the agency publishing company will contact the studio team as soon as possible.

At the same time, it will act as an agent for the distribution company, and will also carry out special marketing, as well as advertising, and even include channel contact with the industry.

Instead of choosing an agency publishing company, it means that after you pass the review, you will put the game on the official platform and major platforms, although these platforms will provide you with services such as mod community, player community, etc., but the management aspect still needs to be managed by yourself.

"We have given a high degree of sincerity, and I believe that Tenghua and Phoenix will not offer a more sincere price than this." Li Qing looked at Yang Chen very seriously and said.

Yang Chen pinched his right index finger and shook his head after thinking for a few seconds.

The agency distribution fee of 3 million, and the 45% commission, although it is said that it includes the promotion of the game, but this price is still too high in Yang Chen's opinion.

"Since last year, only 73 JRPG games have been released, of which only two have exceeded 1 million sales, and 1.5 million sales have not been released, while the most recent pixel JRPG is 7 months ago, and that sales are only less than 5,000 copies." When he said this, Li Qing looked at Yang Chen with a strange expression.

Listening to the data reported by Li Qing, Yang Chen was a little embarrassed, because the game with less than 5,000 sales was what he did when he didn't get the dream memory before.

However, embarrassment is embarrassing, the conditions still have to be contested, Yang Chen shook his head: "This is not the same, although "Octopath Traveler" is a pixel-style JRPG, but it is not a small-cost independent game, it is a commercial game, I believe NetDragon can also see it on the official website of the game, and its cost is really more than 10 million." ”

"That's why we're willing to offer this condition." Li Qing was unmoved.

…………

Half an hour later, walking out of the café, Yang Chen drove home.

Just like what he said to Wang Yaliang before, after this more tentative negotiation, Yang Chen had to admit one thing, that is, he now has no right to speak in front of the three major ones, and he is not enough to influence the decisions of the three major ones.

"The Marriage of Isaac" sold more than one million, which is indeed a good achievement, but it is only good.

At least such a result is not enough for the three major to make concessions when facing him.

After thinking about it, Yang Chen exhaled, found a number in the address book and dialed it.

…………

In the office of Galaxy Network, Chu Ge sat in front of the computer, playing the trial of "Octopath Traveler", his face was full of surprise and surprise.

At this time, the mobile phone placed next to him rang, and after looking at the caller ID, Chu Ge hurriedly connected it.

Ten minutes later, a smile appeared on Chu Ge's face.

If nothing else, basically this game is still won by their Galaxy Network.

How do you look at the pixel wind and JRGP elements, how can they be the type of games that have been submerged by the torrent of the times, but after Chu Ge really played the game, he found that this cheap game in his imagination was not the same.

Although it is in the style of pixels, the game itself is definitely not a cheap existence.

The exquisite modern graphics technology and the traditional pixel combination are dreamlike, and at the same time, the journey life of eight characters with different personalities, the main line seems to be unrelated, but through some branch lines, you will find that their lives have been closely connected because of something.

At the same time, with the side plot, there is also the main plot, and the suspended text in the battle and the dubbed dialogue show a perfect group drama.

The only debatable question is whether such a game can stand the test of the market.

The agency issuance fee of 1.5 million, at the same time 3% of the profit commission, and the scale of marketing is not less than 5 million, which is the agreement reached between Chu Ge and Yang Chen in the end.

This condition is also very superior, although the agency issuance fee and marketing funds, there is certainly no way to compare with the conditions offered by the three major ones.

But the commission is much lower, which is also a concession made by Galaxy Network, which is aware of the traffic gap between itself and the three major channels.

…………

There was no big surprise in the review, which won a rating of 13+, and the official platform and the platform of Galaxy Network were launched.

At the same time, this time Yang Chen was also able to promote it on his social platform, with the success of "The Combination of Isaac", coupled with the various game self-media that measured traffic during this time, he had to call "Octagon Traveler" and Lin Jiayi's "Time and Space" opponents, as if the two had to fight to the death.

Yang Chen's official account still has a lot of attention, plus Wang Yaliang, who is usually responsible for managing this aspect, operates very well, especially after buying steel eggs, he poses for stupid steel eggs every day, which has attracted a lot of attention.

Now Yang Chen's attention has reached about 300,000 people.

will get the edited promotional video and the original painting setting from Yang Chen, and Wang Yaliang will send them all through Yang Chen's account.

"Eight travelers, a unique story adventure; A new sensory visual JRPG experience, Octopath Traveler is about to be officially launched! ”

Players who have been following Yang Chen's new game saw the news about his new game for the first time.

At the same time, compared with the sudden sniping of NetDragon's "Time and Space Wheel" earlier, this time the timing of the launch of "Octopath Traveler" was very good, and there were basically no popular games launched during the same period.

In addition, the previous "Time and Space" has basically passed the popularity period, and the publicity channels or something, Galaxy Network can basically quickly create its popularity in the short term after throwing money at it.

And this time, the Galaxy Network did not focus on live broadcast and video promotion as before, after all, there was no opponent in the same period this time, and the publicity funds were sufficient.

There's no need to go sideways like that, to put it bluntly, what is the anchor live streaming the game for?

Isn't it just the heat?

You pay them to stream your game, but as long as your game is hot enough, they'll naturally stream it too.

At the same time, the game is not good enough, and if you give money to broadcast it live, then it is impossible for others to continue the live broadcast; And the game is good enough that even if you don't give money, they will stream it.

And now Yang Chen is not as obscure as when he first did "The Combination of Isaac", a game with millions of sales, coupled with the previous topic with Lin Jiayi, has given him a certain degree of popularity, and with the marketing of Galaxy Network, it can take the most ordinary and most useful route to create heat.

However, in terms of the game itself, unlike the previous "Isaac's Combination", this time the price of "Octopath Traveler" is twice as expensive as before, with a price of 116 yuan, and a collection package with game music DLC is priced at 130 yuan.

In the face of this price, many players still expressed doubts.
