74. Copyright in hand
When Owen found Li Hua again, he had a smile on his face, and when he saw him like this, Li Hua was immediately happy.
"It's finished?" Li Hua asked eagerly.
He entrusted Owen and them to help buy the game adaptation rights of "Alien", and looking at Owen's appearance, it should be done.
Sure enough, Owen smiled and said, "It's done, and it only costs two million dollars." ”
Two million dollars, is it much?
Actually, it's not much, but it's not less, although it's far less than the price of "E.T. the Extra-Terrestrial", but it's not less.
There are many factors in this, but the main factor is actually the current game market environment.
No one wants to buy the rights to the game adaptation.
Let's put it this way, the entire game market now, except for Aoyama's continuous production of excellent games, the rest is basically gone.
There are also a few companies that are struggling to die, and they don't dare to spend so much money to buy game copyrights.
So, two million is not too much, and it is not too little.
"Haha, I didn't expect you to be so efficient." Li Hua suddenly said happily.
Owen handed the document in his hand to Li Hua, and after Li Hua confirmed that there was no problem, the smile on his face couldn't be suppressed.
Owen teased: "Your smile makes me feel like you're taking a big advantage, isn't this price too cheap?" ”
Li Hua immediately restrained his smile, but no matter how much he hid it, it was still obvious, there was no way, he was so happy.
In this way, he can immediately start working on Contra in preparation for the release of the next console.
But thinking of this, Li Hua asked again: "What about the copyright of "Tank Battalion"? ”
Li Hua naturally handed over this matter to Owen, and he didn't bother the two masters, and they were indeed capable.
Owen once again gave a good news, "It's basically been talked about over there, and the price is around a million dollars, which is what happened in the last few days." ”
From this price, you can actually see how much the predecessor of "Tank Wars" "Tank Battalion" is on the street.
It can't be at this price if it sells slightly better.
Li Hua really couldn't hold back anymore this time, and the smile on his face couldn't stop.
"Are you planning to develop two new games with these two rights?" Owen began to inquire about the news.
Some news about Tsingshan Company can attract a lot of attention.
Owen is no exception.
Especially in recent months, Tsingshan's three games have been the highest sales in the entire game market.
Although it is much worse than the peak, the shortage has continued, and the reputation is getting better and better.
So even though there are only three games, they are still well received by the majority of players.
At the same time, many players have publicly stated that in the future, as long as it is a game made by Tsingshan, they are willing to buy it.
This proves that Tsingshan has initially established an image in the hearts of players.
At the same time, in this way, those investment banks are more optimistic about Tsingshan Company.
Owen calculated after some data that in the past two or three months, Tsingshan's three games can bring at least more than 10 million dollars in profits to Tsingshan.
When he saw this data, Owen was really a little jealous to be honest.
Especially coupled with Li Hua's age, he is even more jealous!
At this rate, even if Tsingshan does not release new games, by the end of the year, they will have a net worth of more than 100 million.
And most of it is cash!
In the face of Owen's inquiry, Li Hua did not hide it, and directly admitted, "That's right, and these are the two games we focus on creating, and they already have a prototype." ”
Owen saw that Li Hua didn't mean to hide it, and his eyes suddenly lit up, "Then what do you think of these two games compared to your previous three games?" ”
Li Hua said confidently: "I can't say that I surpass them, but it definitely won't be worse than them." ”
"And in terms of setting and audience, it will be broader."
Seeing that Li Hua was so confident, Owen thought for a while and said, "Then are you still short of money?" ”
"Or do you have other needs? Believe us ****, we will definitely make you satisfied. ”
Although this copyright acquisition is not a big project, especially for them, it has also made them a small profit.
Li Hua smiled and said, "No problem, didn't I already promise you that I would take a loan from your bank." ”
"As for the rest, can you take over the advertised business?"
Owen was a little disappointed, but still said: "This is not within our scope of business, but I can help you introduce some people, rest assured, it will definitely satisfy you." ”
"I just don't know what your budget is?"
Tsingshan's three games, "Super Mario Bros.", basically didn't spend much money on publicity, and it was completely based on Dongfeng and word of mouth.
"Bomberman" and "Maplestory" cost some promotional money, but overall it is not much, it is a lot, and it also has a gimmick to compete with Atari.
But this time, it's basically up to Aoyama itself.
There won't be as big a natural ad as the first two.
And from the publicity fee, it can also be seen that Tsingshan Company attaches great importance to these two games.
"10 million foundations, if it's not enough, it will continue to be added!" Li Hua said magnificently.
When it comes to promotional expenses, he will definitely not be stingy, because he has full confidence in these two games!
When Owen heard this, he didn't ask any more questions, it was enough to have these.
If it were Atari, he would naturally be suspicious, after all, the previous "E.T. the Extra-Terrestrial" spent $20 million on promotion, but the quality was outrageously poor.
And Tsingshan Company is different, they have proven themselves, although there are only three games, but these three, each of which is a hit, can even be called a classic!
"When you need it, I can help you find a suitable publicity team." Owen said.
…………
After Owen left, Li Hua also began to think about one thing, that is, on his side, he also needed to form his own negotiation team.
Especially in some copyright acquisitions, it is impossible to entrust it to someone else every time, so it is easy to leak the company's secrets.
It's just that Li Hua has no better choice now, and the company still needs to be improved, so he can only find Owen and them.
However, this matter has been put in Li Hua's heart and has begun to be put on the agenda.
And at this time, Sandy also brought good news to Li Hua.
That is, their planning department has also developed their own new game, which is also a new project approved by Li Hua.
A game company can't just rely on his boss to provide ideas, it still needs the efforts of the people below, not to mention that this is also a way to fill the company's game library.
