Tokyo Video Game Tycoon

Chapter 359

"Have you guys considered putting this game on GS1?"

During the chat, Zhu Youxing asked the question he wanted to ask the most.

Bourne was taken aback, then sighed and said: "Of course I want to, why don't I want to, GS1 is now the place with the largest number of users, if we can log in to our games on this game console, then more people will definitely pay attention, but the authorization of GS1 Gold is not something we can afford right now."

If a game developer wants to register his game on a certain game console, then there is the biggest threshold first, which is the license fee, which can also be called the patent fee.

This is equivalent to the entry fee for joining a certain game console.

And this entry fee is generally expensive, and it is difficult for some small game studios to bear the price of this license fee.

Unless their works are really famous, it is possible to rely on the money they make to log on to other platforms to continue to expand their influence.

And when you log in to PC, you don’t need these things. You just need to publish the game on the PC platform, and players will naturally download and play it.

However, PC will also give rise to another problem, that is piracy.

Youxing Electronic Entertainment doesn't care much, even if Doom Slayer cracks more than [-] million scale on PC, it will not affect the basic disk of Youxing Electronic Entertainment at all.

Zhu Youxing started playing pirated copies since he was a child, and he also maintained this kind of tolerance for the latecomers.

And pirating cracked games isn't all bad for a large company.

This also means that these players are also paying attention to their own products, and sometimes the number of users is also a lot of money.

It is estimated by outsiders that the total number of users of Youxing Electronic Entertainment's licensed and pirated versions may have exceeded 3000 million.

This huge number of users is already beyond the reach of ordinary companies.

The company valuation brought by this number of users alone has exceeded [-] billion US dollars.

Now as long as Zhu Yuxing is willing to let go, in the blink of an eye, there will be countless capitals clamoring to join in with money.

And they will give Yuxing Electronic Entertainment a valuation of at least 200 billion US dollars.

Even if Zhu Youxing sells 7% of the shares, it will be [-] million U.S. dollars, which is the money for a large investment similar to FF[-].

However, piracy is not a problem for Zhu Yuxing, but a small studio like Bourne is likely to be dragged down by piracy.

They could end up going bankrupt by selling a game or two less.

Looking at this doomsday role-playing game, Take Yuxing still likes it very much.

It made him feel like he used to play Fallout 2.

If this game misses him, he will definitely regret it.

However, people in this world know very little about games in this form of expression. Prudent investors will definitely ask for more studio shares if they see that it is not a popular game work, otherwise they will choose a more high-quality game. game studio.

Even though the game industry is very hot at the moment, they are still very cautious in investing.

This seems to be the norm for investors in this world.

At this time, Zhu Youxing said: "Patent money is really a troublesome thing, but I actually recently heard that Youxing Electronic Entertainment is working on a new plan, the purpose is to explore more potential video games, for these Early-stage game studios with little capital themselves gave preferential treatment to patent fees, such as how many more sets of games were sold before receiving patent fees.”

Byrne was taken aback: "Ah? Is there any? Why haven't I heard of it?"

It is true that there is no such thing, but Zhu Yuxing is the boss of Yuxing Electronic Entertainment. He said that if there is, there will definitely be.

However, this was also a sudden impulse of Zhu Yuxing.

He has always wanted to recruit some game development talents, but he also somewhat forgot that not everyone wants to work in a company willingly. Many geniuses hope to be independent and control only by themselves. game development group.

Even if the status of Yuxing Electronic Entertainment can still attract a lot of talents, it is difficult to attract such more independent talents.

He had been involved in the game development environment before, and he had neglected this matter.

Fortunately, it is still too late to recover.

Zhu Youxing nodded: "It is true, I am half an industry insider, and I have some media interviews with... Youxing Electronic Entertainment. The interviews two days ago indeed revealed that Youxing Electronic Entertainment has this plan. To be honest, I think your games are not bad, maybe you can contact Yuxing Electronic Entertainment, even if the plan has not been opened yet, but if there are high-quality games, they should not mind giving the green light in advance."

Bamboo Yusei's words made Bourne's mind instantly liven up.

Chances of a free login on GS1?

This is quite rare.

In the early FC era, Yuxing Electronic Entertainment naturally didn't collect too much patent money at the beginning, and it mostly took the lion's share in the share.

Later, as more and more game companies joined, Yuxing Electronic Entertainment naturally needed to make certain changes. It was necessary to kick out some guys who just wanted to fish in troubled waters, so as not to affect their own development.

But now it seems that this strategy is not completely correct, because it is indeed blocking a lot of guys who fish in troubled waters, but it also abandons these potential game developers.

After Zhu Yuxing said these words, Bourne's attitude towards Zhu Yuxing was obviously completely different.

"Sir, may I ask your name?"

"I don't need to ask my name. I'm just doing a little favor. Now I'm a player."

"This... I actually want to thank you, because you revealed this news to me. This is really important to me and Darnley. If it weren't for you, we might have suffered serious losses."

Zhu Yuxing said with a smile: "It doesn't need to be so exaggerated. Anyway, I don't need to say it. In a few days, it may even be at this exhibition that Yuxing Electronic Entertainment will announce new plans."

"But even so, I am very grateful to you."

Byrne thought for a moment, then immediately took out a notebook from the side, and wrote his name and a paragraph on it.

'I, Bern Stamper and Tim Darnley now owe you a debt of gratitude to Mr. Sir. If there is any need for us in the future, please use this to find me at any time. I am willing to use every means possible. Return Mr. '

Because Zhu Yuxing was wearing sunglasses and a mask, Byrne could only tell by his accent that he was not American.

He also respected Zhu Yuxing's choice of not revealing, so he came up with the idea of ​​jotting down Zhu Yuxing's favor in this way.

Then, he tore off the paper very seriously, and handed it to Zhu Yuxing sincerely.

"Sir, please accept this, maybe this thing has no value, but I hope that I will still have a chance to repay you in the future, even if we fail in the final game development, no one cares about our work, and finally the two of us If you have to do odd jobs, as long as you use this to find me at any time, I will repay you immediately."
