Chapter 480 Disagreement

This girl Zhou Hong's character is very straightforward. After getting Chen Ye's contact information, she started to attack. She took the initiative to ask questions and chatted with him about various topics, but Chen Ye was still the same, and Liu Huaxing had just met him. The same as before, rejecting all those who want to get closer to him, although Zhou Hong is not discouraged, he does not know how long he can persist.

Liu Huaxing didn't have time to take care of her. After the game was finished, he was busy again. He had to find a way to send emails to various game companies at home and abroad to send their games to the other party for review, and find a way to communicate with the other party. Communication, communicating the purchase price of the game, things are also quite troublesome.

Just like the previous TV series, many people would rather spend a lot of money to acquire an already excellent work, but no one is willing to take the risk of digging out a work they think is valuable at a lower price. This is particularly evident in the domestic market. Domestic companies generally rejected Liu Huaxing's games, believing that they "do not meet the tastes of domestic players, and the graphics are too rough."

At least a few foreign companies feel that their games are of good quality, with high playability and excellent details.

However, it is difficult to reach a consensus on the acquisition, and the key lies in the price.

Because the biggest difference between Liu Huaxing's game and "Minecraft" and "Famine" is that it cannot be online, but tends to be a stand-alone game. Of course, the current "Famine" is still a stand-alone game, and the online patch is still under development. But it also happened to be because of the online patch that made things even more troublesome.

The reason why "Minecraft" can launch a free trial to accumulate popularity on the Internet is because it is an online game. After the initial promotion, the popularity has gradually increased, and the server can be used to obtain income, and the playability is also high. It has improved a lot because of the connection.

However, this game made by Liu Huaxing is not good, because it is a stand-alone game, although it is also a sandbox type survival game, but as a free game, it will cause trouble in the sales of the game later, after all, the degree of freedom is not as good as "Minecraft "So high, there is a certain stand-alone component, which is why "Famine" cannot be marketed like "Minecraft".

Therefore, now Liu Huaxing has three options left, the first is to sell the game at a lower price, but at present, the company "KI" has given the highest price, and the price they have given is three million U.S. dollars. What the company likes is the gameplay of their game. To put it bluntly, they like Liu Huaxing's game planning, but they don't like the game modeling, BGM and subroutines at all.

The purpose of the company's acquisition of the game is simply to win the game plan and its core program, and then let its own company remake the modeling and textures conveniently, and create a game like Famine.

Of course Liu Huaxing didn't want his painstaking efforts to be taken away by others to transform him beyond recognition, and then completely snatched away.

The second option is to add an online mode to the game by yourself, and then put it online for everyone to try.

But the difficulty of doing so lies in the troublesome operation. There are not many people in their studio, and they are not full-time productions. They just got together because of their hobbies and dreams.

Although Liu Huaxing had already considered the nature of the online connection from the very beginning, and laid the groundwork in advance, it is not now. To run a game by yourself, you first need to rent a batch of servers, and then you have to promote it on various websites. It is really troublesome. Others in their studio have no relevant experience, so it is not easy to handle.

The last option is to give up cooperation with other companies, and then publish the game on Steam.

This is the most feasible way at present. It is actually not difficult to put the game on Steam. After the application is reviewed, a certain deposit is paid. The deposit is only one hundred dollars, which is not much. It will be returned after the sales volume reaches a certain level. .

But the point is that after I put it on Steam, I don’t have any resources to promote or advertise. It all depends on the evaluation among players and Steam’s own internal recommendation system. To put it bluntly, it depends on the results.

However... without resources to promote, the number of games sold will be small, and if the quantity is small and the income is low, there will be no resources to promote, and then fall into an endless loop.

Of course, if the game is really good, after a long time, players will give better evaluations, and it may get better if it is recommended to each other. After receiving attention, the Steam platform will also recommend it. But this is an extremely long process, and it will take at least half a year to see the results, and if there are too few gamers, there is not enough data to update the game is also a key issue.

So, at night, Liu Huaxing threw this question to everyone in the studio for them to vote for a decision. But Liu Huaxing underestimated people's greed a little bit. When they heard "three million dollars", the group immediately exploded.

"Three million dollars!" Zhang Chengfei sent a "lusty" expression, "Isn't that 19 million dollars!?"

"It's the price before tax. After paying the tax, there will be about 12 million left." Liu Huaxing replied in the group.

"That's a lot. There are still seven people left in our studio, and one person can share close to two million." Wang Zhao also made a drooling expression, and Li Xuesong immediately echoed: "Yes, although Hua It took nearly a year, but I think earning more than one million yuan a year is not something ordinary people can achieve, so I should be satisfied."

"Yeah, why don't you just sell it? They bought it for three million US dollars, which is already very face-saving." Bai Renzong also agreed.

Everyone's opinions were surprisingly unanimous, which made Liu Huaxing a little helpless. He actually didn't want to do this. After all, he thought his game had higher value. What's more, this game was acquired and taken away, and it was not like this when it was sold. It felt as if my good daughter was married and then brought out by her husband and became a little sister.

But not everyone agrees, Liu Chang replied: "But, after they buy the game, they basically have to replace it all, so it's not the game we made. I don't think...it's not very good."

"I also think that this is a kind of short-sighted behavior. It is to give up the possibility of our game's future for the sake of more than one million yuan." Chen Ye also replied in the same way, "Since the other party has taken a fancy to this game, it means that they I think this game is at least worth the price. Think about it, if they take out the game in the future, sell hundreds of thousands of millions of copies, and then earn tens of millions or even hundreds of millions, won’t you regret it?”

This sentence is still a bit powerful, and the people at the scene fell silent immediately, but there is still no solution to this disagreement.

After a while, Liu Huaxing thought of a solution, so he asked, "Who agrees to sell this game for three million?"

At that time, Zhang Chengfei, Wang Zhao and Bai Renzong agreed.

"What do the rest of you think?" Liu Huaxing continued to ask.

"I'll listen to you, and I'll follow you as you do." Chen Ye dumped the blame as always, and Liu Chang immediately echoed: "I also think it's better to listen to you, I don't know what to do in this situation. ..."

"What's your opinion?" Bai Renzong asked Liu Huaxing for his opinion, and Liu Huaxing told them the third plan, which is to sell it on Steam. It is also the most feasible plan at present, which is equivalent to long-term fishing. big fish. The benefits come slowly, but the final result... depends on the quality of the game itself. Only really good games can become popular on the Steam platform without big money to promote.

Looking at the past, some games released by small companies became popular without too much promotion, but this is like a star who entered the entertainment industry. The so-called "survivor bias". And can they become that "survivor"? Liu Huaxing believes that it should be possible.

Even if it can't become popular, at least it won't be reduced to a stepping stone. Anyway, it is a game he created by combining elements that will be popular in the future. The future trend will not change just because of a little butterfly flapping its wings, at least not in a short time.

"That's how it is." Liu Huaxing thought for a while, and replied in the group, "I will send you three million dollars in my own name at the price after deducting taxes, but after that..."

The game has nothing to do with them. Liu Huaxing didn't say this, but they knew it in their hearts.

To put it bluntly, Liu Huaxing gave them a sum of money to transfer the ownership of the game.

In fact, when calculated, each person is more than one million, and three people are less than four million. Liu Huaxing can still afford this amount of money, and he can pay them after the proceeds of the TV series are paid, and at the same time, there will be more than one million left over.

Although he now has a few million more, the corresponding share of Zhang Chengfei, Wang Zhao and Bai Renzong will fall into his hands. In other words, he can share the income of four people alone in the future. From a long-term perspective Said he made a lot of money. The premise is that the game can really catch fire.

At this time, Yang Xiaoxiao whispered to the side: "Xing Xing, my feet are so cold, I just can't warm up under the quilt..."

Liu Huaxing turned his head to look at Yang Xiaoxiao, the little girl pouted and looked at him pitifully, Liu Huaxing could only smile and sigh: "Got it, I'll come up to accompany you."

"Hey hey." Yang Xiaoxiao smiled happily, moved to the side of the bed, then patted herself next to her, "Come on."

It's the end of December now, and it's really cold in winter, especially in Beichang City. There is no heating in winter. Liu Huaxing took off his shoes and socks and climbed into bed, but there was no cold air coming, but warmth Cheerful. Liu Huaxing sat under the quilt, touched the little girl's feet, and wondered, "Isn't this very warm? You little liar..."

"Hey, why don't you go to bed and rest." Yang Xiaoxiao smiled mischievously, leaning on him, "It's already half past nine, what are you doing down there, the weather is so cold, go to bed early to warm the bed. "

"Extremely true..." Liu Huaxing smiled, turned around and hugged Yang Xiaoxiao, "Oh, the baby smells so good..."

"He took a bath." Yang Xiaoxiao smiled proudly, "He even rubbed body lotion, can you feel it to see if it's slippery?"

"It's the same as before, it's all so slippery..." Liu Huaxing stroked her butt and smiled.

"What the hell, can you still feel it through your pants? Besides, you haven't wiped your butt..." Yang Xiaoxiao glared at him. Liu Huaxing smiled maliciously, rubbed his hands and said, "Then you say that, I have to feel the slippery feel without wearing pants."

"No! Hooligan, you look so wretched!" Yang Xiaoxiao hid aside and said with a sharp smile.

"Bold, where are you going!?" Liu Huaxing jumped forward involuntarily.

After all this lingering, Liu Huaxing hugged Yang Xiaoxiao contentedly and let out a long sigh of relief.

No matter how many troubles there are at work, the life between him and Yang Xiaoxiao will always be sweet. With the little girl acting like a baby in his arms, all the troubles were gone.

Thinking of this, he kissed Yang Xiaoxiao hard on the top of the head. The little girl seemed to have fallen asleep, so she snorted and rubbed against his face: "Sleep, after tossing for so long..."

"Kiss one more time." Liu Huaxing kissed the little girl's face, and finally felt dissatisfied, so he kissed again, and then couldn't stop. Yang Xiaoxiao pushed him away impatiently, and said coquettishly, "What are you doing? People say you're still going to sleep!"

"You're too cute to bear." Liu Huaxing smiled, "Call me for a chat?"

"Hey... you're going to talk now." Yang Xiaoxiao muttered, "Let's talk."

"I plan to buy the copyright of the game from Wang Zhao, Zhang Chengfei and Bai Renzong after I get the proceeds from this TV series. It will probably cost more than three million yuan." Liu Huaxing explained.

"You transfer it, anyway, it's your own money." Yang Xiaoxiao reached out and touched his face, "You don't need to tell me this kind of thing."

"Then what if we lose money?" Liu Huaxing asked half-jokingly, and Yang Xiaoxiao smiled, "It's okay, even if we lose all the money, we can still make money. As long as I'm with you, I don't have to worry about anything... "

Liu Huaxing kissed her lightly on the top of her head and touched her little butt: "Sleep, baby."

"You go to bed early too, there will be classes in the first and second quarters tomorrow morning..." Yang Xiaoxiao muttered, slipped into his arms, adjusted a comfortable posture, and sighed contentedly, "Good night, the stars... ..."

With Yang Xiaoxiao's words, Liu Huaxing also gained some confidence, but he was still a little worried, because after the money was reduced by three million, the car he planned to buy for his father might have to wait a little later. But he felt it was worth it.

After the matter was settled, Liu Huaxing started to apply the next day, and then put their game on Steam as quickly as possible. Now because it is still a beta version, it will be distributed for free at the beginning.

When there are a certain number of players and enough data for them to test, the official sale can be started at a lower price, such as around 30 yuan, but at this time it is still a beta version, so the price is relatively low. The final version and final price will not be until the data and version are completely improved, and the game content has been upgraded to a higher level.

In Liu Huaxing's mind, the final price is probably between 80 yuan and 100 yuan. This price is acceptable to domestic players, let alone foreign players. But after the game hits the shelves, the battle has only just begun.
