Reborn in another world as a game

Chapter 29 The Overlord Clause of the Platform Party
game circle.

There has been a lot of rumors recently about the "Happy Game Company" being blocked by the three major platforms.

Many game practitioners who are envious and jealous are all gloating.

On the one hand, colleagues believe that after the "Happy Game Company" is blocked, their games will be able to sell well.

On the other hand, they feel that they also have the right to speak in this industry——

"Look, no matter how popular 'Happy Game Company' is, once we unite, won't it be blocked as well?"

It's like a group of ordinary people jointly reported, causing a high-ranking company to go bankrupt. At that moment... I felt that I had status.

But what they don't know is—

Behind this joy, a conspiracy sweeping the entire video game industry is slowly unfolding.

……

Banana Group.

meeting room.

"boom--"

Wang Sicheng slapped the documents in his hand on the table, and looked at the senior executives present: "Chairman,? Isn't this too much?"

"It's a unanimous request from shareholders, you just need to execute it."

The old man in the suit said lightly.

implement?

"Chairman, when you aimed at 'Happy Games' before, you said that you were avoiding the dominance of one family and causing everyone to suffer; but now you are making such strict demands on everyone, it is a bit..."

Wang Sicheng took a deep breath: "Chairman, I advise you to think twice."

"Wang Sicheng, do you know what you should do?"

The old man in the suit said lightly: "The company invited you to be the president. It is for you to work, not for you to teach me how to do things. You just need to execute it. This is a joint decision of the three of us."

After speaking, the old man in the suit got up and left.

Joint decision?

Wang Sicheng clenched his fists tightly, glanced at the documents on the table, and felt a slight chill in his heart.

……

On the same day, the three major platforms of Leyou, Strawberry and Banana launched a new cooperation model.

Among them, there are three main amendments:

Article 5: Due to the blockade of "Happy Game Company", the platform party suffered huge losses and the channel cost increased, so it was decided to modify the share ratio from the original 5:7 share to 3:7 share (the platform accounted for [-]% ).

Article [-]: New games that have been reviewed by a third party (game company) will share the distribution costs with the platform party. If sales are slow, the loss will be deducted from the third party's share.

Article [-]: For new games released on the platform side, the right to operate the IP copyright belongs to the platform side, and the third party has the right to share, but they are not allowed to operate and make profits without permission. Otherwise, it is considered a violation, and the platform side has the right to forcibly withdraw the IP copyright.

As soon as these three regulations came out, the entire industry was dumbfounded.

No one thought that one second he was still gloating, and the next second he was in a catastrophe.

Since everyone is in the game circle and deals with technology, patents, and copyrights all day long, then naturally they will not misunderstand these three regulations.

Translated into adult words is——

Originally, the money earned was divided into half and half, but now I swallowed 3000% of you, making a net profit of [-] yuan, and only giving the game company [-] yuan;
Originally, the platform was responsible for the distribution cost of the game, but now it is shared, but... if your game does not sell well, you will bear the loss yourself;

To put it bluntly, for example, the cost of a cassette is 20 yuan. If [-] copies of the cassette are produced, only [-] copies will be sold. The remaining [-] copies will cost a total of [-] yuan, and the game company will pay for it.

what?
What do you say you have no money?
Sign a good cooperation agreement in advance, if you don't have money, you can use your company's shares to pay off the debt, and deduct from the share of the sold games.

There is also a third rule——

"For games released on the platform side, the right to operate the IP copyright belongs to the platform side, and the third party only has the right to share."

To be clear: your game is sold on my platform, so your copyright belongs to me. I can operate it however I want. You can only watch it. At most, you can make money and give it to you. .

"Is that too much?"

"Our game company doesn't make much money in the first place, why should we modify the share ratio?"

"Why do you let us bear the losses you suffered from blocking 'Happy Game Company'?"

"What does this third agreement mean? Overlord clause?"

"The game I developed with great difficulty, you have to take [-]% of the profit and take away the operating rights?"

"In other words, the child I worked so hard to raise not only wants to make money for you, but also has to be named after you?"

The game companies were not happy anymore, and they came to the door one after another, wanting the platform to give an explanation.

However, the spokesperson of the platform side, the attitude is very embarrassing——

"What's the matter with modifying the share ratio? We are happy."

"It's your intention to block 'Happy Games Company', and of course you have to bear the loss."

"Right to operate? You ruined companies have a shitty operation. It's a waste to leave the copyright to you. It's better to leave it to the platform for centralized processing."

"Protest, right? Then get out, don't publish it in my house."

"Either accept it obediently, or get out of the game industry and decide for yourself."

There are many similar ones.

Although he didn't speak so directly, his arrogant attitude and contemptuous eyes showed everything clearly.

The game company was so angry that it even said harshly that it would cooperate with the other two major platforms.

But when they learned that these three "Overlord Agreements" were unanimously decided by the three, they were immediately dumbfounded.

"Is this... signed or not?"

For a while, they all regretted boycotting "Happy Game Company".

……

Happy Games Inc.

"Senior, you really guessed it right."

Su Qiong grabbed a magazine and ran into the office: "The three major groups have issued a new cooperation agreement, which is simply outrageously harsh."

After speaking, there was no response for a long time.

"Senior, what are you doing?"

Su Qiong poked her head out and watched him make a bunch of circuit boards and cases.

"I'm programming electronic toys."

Tian Moyun said without raising his head, and picked up a blueprint: "You go to a carpenter to make this thing, and the cost will be deducted from your salary."

"Why!"

Su Qiong was taken aback.

What did she do wrong?
Tian Moyun raised his head and said lightly, "I'm happy."

Su Qiong: "..."

Su Qiong, who couldn't make trouble with Tian Moyun, had no choice but to go out with the blueprint depressed.

It took more than two hours to come back, and he said out of breath: "It was too difficult for me to find the carpenter after running for more than ten streets."

"..."

Tian Moyun took out the wooden case and measured the size: "Not bad, how much did it cost?"

"More than 800, I found the best craftsman in this area."

Su Qiong stretched out his hands and made a gesture of eight.

Tian Moyun shook his head: "I think this thing is worth two hundred at most."

"Are you saying I falsified the price?"

Su Qiong's eyes widened.

"No, it's just that you are so stupid that you don't even know you were cheated."

Tian Moyun said casually: "But it doesn't matter, it's just used as a model. If it is mass-produced, the cost is very cheap."

"What the hell is it?"

Su Qiong was very curious, the wooden case looked like a handheld, could it be that Tian Moyun wanted to make a handheld?
Don't you mean electronic toys?
