Surprise.

After listening to Gu Sheng's narration, Sanshang Shinji's first reaction was surprise.

As Gu Sheng said, the Resident Evil of this work is different from the past.

There is no huge crisis in Race, nor is there a terrible crisis involved in rescuing the president's daughter.

The story takes place on a small farm in Louisiana.

This is where the story begins and where it ends.

The protagonist named Ethan, as an ordinary person, learns that his long-lost wife is now on the farm, so he decides to set off for Louisiana to rescue his wife.

is such a simple story, although there is no danger, but it is equally thrilling and dangerous.

Even!

Because of the sinking perspective, the identity of the protagonist as an ordinary person can create a terrifying atmosphere of the whole game.

And this.

is also what Gu Sheng said, the key to returning to classic horror.

“…… And when it comes to horror games, I think we're pretty confident. ”

After saying that, Gu Sheng smiled and nodded.

Hearing this, Shinji Sanshang also took a deep breath in his heart.

He knew that Gu Sheng's words were not Wang Po selling melons.

The confidence in his mouth is not blind confidence.

Nowadays, looking at the world, there are only a handful of horror games that can do the golden wind.

It is no exaggeration to say that if Kemera was not so greedy and arrogant at the beginning, as long as she was willing to go hand in hand with the wind of gold, then the IP of Silent Hill would definitely not fall into the embarrassing situation it is today, and it is very likely that it will go hand in hand with the original Resident Evil and become another classic series of IP.

Although there are only two and a half horror games produced by Goldwind so far, they are Phobia, Escape, and Silent Hill PT.

But through only these two and a half works, it is not difficult for Shinji Sanshang to judge the wind of gold and Gu Sheng's control of horror games.

And now, this newly launched "Resident Evil 7: Not a Hero" also made him see that in the context of Resident Evil, Gu Sheng found another way and focused on the exquisite ideas of ordinary little people.

Moreover, from the disclosure of some details of Gu Sheng's business plan, you can also taste the taste of "old biochemistry".

"It seems that our previous negotiations were not in vain,"

After a moment of silence, Shinji Sanshang took a deep breath and nodded with a smile:

"So let's cut to the chase and talk about the price of royalties."

As soon as this statement came out!

Gu Sheng and Moriya were both shocked!

Both of them knew that as soon as these words came out, it meant that this matter had been 90% successful.

After all, before this, no one had ever been able to negotiate the copyright fee with Shinji Sanshang, and most of them just ate a closed door.

"What is the copyright acquisition fee given by your company?"

Shinji Sanshang asked.

It's a conundrum.

For a long time, Gu Sheng has actually been worried about the copyright fee of the IP of the "Resident Evil" series.

The price of this thing is actually hard to measure in terms of actual money.

Games, Movies, Goods, Toys......

There are so many things related to it that the copyright price is already astronomical.

But the problem is that although the price of the copyright is astronomical, the amount of money that can be shelled out by the wind of gold is limited.

Although Sanshang Shinji boasts that he has made enough money in three lifetimes, he doesn't care about money at all.

But you can't just say that you just give someone 18 million casually, that would be too disrespectful to people, and it doesn't respect this copyright.

Come to think of this.

Gu Sheng opened his mouth and said in a deep voice: "425 million knives? ”

After that, he added:

"Of course, this price is only issued by our side, and we still need to ask for Mr. Sanshang's opinion on how to do it."

Less.

In fact, before the acquisition, Gu Sheng also roughly inquired about the transaction price of copyright acquisition in this world.

It stands to reason that a world-class game IP like "Resident Evil" wants to talk about copyright acquisition, at least 500 million dollars.

That's it, it's still the starting price.

425 million dollars, apparently less.

Gu Sheng didn't want to open his mouth to say this kind of low price, mainly because they really didn't have that much money!

After all!

Since "Garden Wars" raised their disposable net worth to 1 billion yuan, about 142 million dollars, the wind of gold has taken a big step and began to gallop wildly in the international market.

Take a look at these projects they've produced since they became a mid-sized game company.

"Wolf", costing 181 million dollars, and "Summit Country" costing 89 million dollars; "Overwatch", which cost 138 million dollars, and "It Takes Two", cost 212 million dollars.

Just three quarters!

The four works of its three major studios burned the cost of 620 million knives of Golden Wind!

It's almost like making a fortune and burning a fortune!

Although the profit is indeed very strong, and if this momentum continues, there will be more and more profits in the future.

But the problem is that the release time of their games is still relatively short, and the accumulation of funds is not so fast.

In addition, the challenge with Tencel Bull and the capital expenditure of the acquisition of Ubsoft during the period.

The combination of various reasons has directly led to the fact that although today's gold wind is extremely profitable, its disposable net assets are only a little over 500 million dollars.

Yes.

"Cai".

In the three quarters, while the fixed market value increased wildly, the company's disposable net assets also increased from the original 1 billion yuan to about 3.5 billion yuan.

In less than a year, disposable net assets have increased by 3.5 times.

If it were to be replaced by other game companies, I am afraid that the boss would go crazy with laughter if such results could be achieved.

But for the wind of gold, the disposable funds of 500 million dollars are really a bit stretched for the acquisition of the copyright of "Resident Evil".

Therefore, the price of 425 million dollars is really all the sincerity of the golden wind.

It's not that they don't want to pay more, it's that they just can't pay more.

After all, after the game copyright is bought, there is more or less some foundation left for the early development work, right?

Gu Sheng can't empty his entire family because of a copyright, right?

……

Why not?!

Yes? Why?!

You dig it! Isn't all the company's money yours? You made it for me!

To this! Shen Miaomiao thumped her chest!

Spend money, my stupid husband! What a big! With such a good opportunity to burn money, why don't you know how to take advantage of it?

500 million dollars!

If we take it all out, plus the development cost, the overall price of a "Biochemical 7" will have to be seven or eight billion dollars, to say the least!

Do you know what this concept is?

This is especially the concept of Yiyou and Xunteng uniting, conjoined body sensing cabin with PC platform, everyone uniting to sell, and selling Mars seeds cannot earn back the cost within the specified time!

And when the time comes, even if it's just 10 times the rebate!

As long as we casually lose a billion, we can get billions or even billions of rebates!

Oops-

Shen Miaomiao's flesh hurt to death.

You stupid old man really don't know that our family spends more and more money!

Irritating!!!

That's right.

With the end of the negotiation in the morning, Gu Sheng and Shen Miaomiao left the company and took half a day off in the afternoon.

The two of them had to go to the housing authority in the afternoon, and Gu Sheng wanted to add Xiao Nezha's name to the house book.

Although theoretically speaking, with the value of Shen Miaomiao, the eldest lady, there is no shortage of this 1.8 million house.

But when she heard that Lao Gu was going to add her name, Shen Miaomiao was still happy and nodded her head in agreement.

At lunch, Shen Miaomiao asked Lao Gu how the copyright acquisition was going in the morning.

Thereupon!

I got such a heart-wrenching answer!

Shen Miaomiao almost choked to death by the ball soup, and her little face was flushed.

"So what?"

It was easy to pat his chest and smooth down this soup, Shen Miaomiao wiped her mouth and asked:

"Do people dislike our prices for being too low and just give up? Why don't we get in touch with someone again? Say you're willing to raise the price and raise the overall purchase price? Or just let them make an offer? ”

Such a good opportunity to spend money, Shen Miaomiao definitely didn't want to miss it.

Although today's price seems a bit reluctant for the wind of gold.

But she still has Lao Shen!

It's a big deal, just go to Lao Shen to borrow money!

Now that they are independent from Shen's Capital, when the time comes, it's a big deal to directly apply for a loan from Shen's Capital in the name of the Golden Wind, anyway, in the end, she will also pay it back, presumably with such a formal loan, Lao Shen will not not borrow.

However, Gu Sheng shook his head:

"No, it was finally closed."

Hear the words.

Shen Miaomiao was slightly stunned, and then breathed a sigh of relief.

Ok ok.

Although the price is a little lower, it is still closed in the end, which is not unacceptable.

"$425 million?"

Shen Miaomiao asked:

"The charm of your old electronic succubus is really big enough, and it can't even reach the starting price, so they will give you the copyright, tsk......"

However!

Gu Sheng still shook his head: "It didn't cost that much." ”

Shen Miaomiao: ?

What the hell are you ???

You're a dog, right, Gu Sheng?

is already a poor scoundrel, and you can't give others a starting price, but you are still bargaining, are you still human?

The most outrageous thing is...... Did you bargain for this product?

"What does it mean ......that it didn't cost that much?"

Shen Miaomiao grinned and handed over an inquiring look.

The heart said you don't want to cut it in half, right? That's too grandson? Please give our future baby some virtue, right?

Inquiry room!

I saw Gu Sheng stretch out a finger.

Shen Miaomiao's cardiopulmonary arrest!

No way!!!

You're a real dog!

You didn't cut in half, you are more ruthless than half cut!

"One...... One...... 100 million?! ”

Shen Miaomiao was shocked:

"425 million bid you...... How the hell did you pretend to be poor to cut the transaction price to 100 million?! ”

You don't want to give it to Shinji Sanshang, right?!

But!

What Shen Miaomiao didn't expect was that after hearing her offer of 100 million, Gu Sheng still held up his fingers and shook his head:

"The unit is wrong."

Shen Miaomiao's little face froze suddenly!

You translate for me.

What...... Damn it...... Call Fuck ...... The unit is wrong?

"One...... Million? ”

After being silent for a long time, Shen Miaomiao tentatively spoke, and said in her heart Gu Sheng, don't be too outrageous.

But Gu Sheng still shook his head, saying that I was so outrageous:

"Richness limits your imagination, dear,"

"A knife."

Shen Miaomiao: ......

Shen Miaomiao was stunned, completely stunned.

The 1 knife in Gu Sheng's mouth was as if he had given her a knife in the brain.

From 100 million dollars to one knife.

"So you gave Sanshang Shinji a knife along the network cable?"

Shen Miaomiao blinked her big eyes that were completely blank:

"Lao Gu, we can't do anything that threatens people, it's illegal......"

Now, it was Gu Sheng's turn to choke.

Sometimes he really can't understand what is in the little brain of Miaomiao, and he can always speak amazingly and jump out of some wild imagination.

Speechless, Gu Sheng waved his hand: "It was Mr. Sanshang who proposed it......

Yes!

As Shinji Misho himself said!

Today's "Resident Evil" is actually not a money-making tool for him.

Without bragging, he doesn't have much desire for money anymore.

After all, he has no family and no children, and when he is middle-aged, he gains fame and fortune, and his biggest wish for the rest of his life is to take his fishing rod to the Pacific Ocean to fish.

The only thing he cares about is "who can do a good job of Resident Evil".

Even before that, he was ready to hide the work forever.

And at this time, Gu Sheng came, with the greatest enthusiasm and respect for Resident Evil, and presented him with a refreshing Resident Evil story of ordinary people.

Sanshang likes this story and looks forward to what kind of bizarre and thrilling stories he will experience as an ordinary person on a small farm.

So, Shinji Sanshang decided to give the golden wind a chance to show his talents-

He licensed Resident Evil to the Golden Wind for a single knife.

Yes, authorized.

Because according to Gu Sheng, his sequel to Resident Evil is going to be presented in two parts.

And in this authorization, Shinji Sanshang only takes one knife and is willing to name a special game director.

If this time, Golden Wind can fight his way out of the encirclement with the IP of "Resident Evil" and regain his life on E3, then he will hand over the copyright to Golden Wind at a mysterious price, so that they can finish telling the story of this ordinary man named 'Ethan'.

And he himself retired and went to the Pacific Ocean to work as a fisherman.

But if this time, the wind of gold still continues the decline of Resident Evil 5 and 6, then next, "Resident Evil" will be permanently sealed and will never appear again until he accompanies Sanshang into the coffin.

A price as light as a feather.

A test as heavy as Mount Tai.

Shinji Sanshang wants to find a worthy home for the IP that he has worked so hard to create, like his own child.

And the wind of gold is his only choice at present, and it is very likely to be the only choice in this life.

He chose to believe in the wind of gold and chose to believe in Gu Sheng.

Well now.

It's the turn of the Golden Wind.

The once dazzling IP needs to see the light of day again, with an unrivaled new look, so that biochemical horror will come to the game circle again......
