game development savior

Chapter 45

The price of 268 is close to 110 if you can get it.

20 sets, which means that this has already earned 1100 million yuan.

Although the cost of making cassettes, transportation, advertising and other expenses have to be removed.

But considering that the development budget of the game is only 2000 million.

It can already be said that "Age of Empires" has already returned half of its cost before it was released.

This is also thanks to Han Qi.

Hanqi used the tinder system to efficiently create games.

It also gives the game a high quality.

And it saves money.

If it is purely developed by Yixing Company, there is a high probability that it will fail, or it will barely make a small-scale game.

It is impossible to make a masterpiece like "Age of Empires".

Even if it can be made, the cost is estimated to be far more than 2000 million.

Moreover, since it is unlikely to conquer the channel business in the video like "Age of Empires".

Games independently developed by Yixing itself are unlikely to be included in the first wave of distribution.

Just let each small channel store get 10 sets!

Of course, if Han Qi is purely allowed to develop it himself.

Not to mention that Hanqi does not have enough funds, nor does it have enough hands to improve the quality of the game.

It is also difficult for Hanqi, which has no license, to open up various formal channels.

You can only go to the black market, and the sales ceiling will be very low.

This wave of cooperation between Hanqi and Yixing Company is a perfect match.

It is also expected to make a commotion in Cyberstar, at least in the game circle of Suzaku City.

Of course, for Hanqi, the channel dealers bought 10 sets in the early stage.

Far from the goal.

This is far from enough!

Han Qi wants to open up the channels of the three largest chain game stores.

The three largest chain game physical stores are Game Warehouse, Rebellious Players, and Tianxia Games.

As the largest physical store, they tend to take a relatively large amount of goods.

At the same time, there are certain threshold requirements for the game.

In the peak period of Yixing Company, it had a cooperative relationship with the three largest physical stores.

But Wing Star has not fallen for N years.

Naturally, these three powerful game physical stores will not just pick up the goods just because of Qiao Yi's phone call.

Doing business with them requires an interview and trial play.

Han Qi volunteered to take on the job.

By the way, I also want to say hello to Yusanjia from the physical game store so that we can continue to cooperate in the future.

After all, Hanqi will continue to develop games in the future, and there must be games, so they have to go through their channels.

The first thing Han Qi came to was the game warehouse.

This is a very large game channel, accounting for almost 50% of the entire game physical store market, and is still constantly merging and acquiring other peers.

Through prior inquiries, Han Qi learned that behind the big game warehouse, there is a shareholding of Polar Bear Company.

There are even rumors that Polar Bear Company has actually become the actual controller of the game warehouse.

Although this statement was denied by the official of the game warehouse.

However, due to the large game warehouse, it can become the exclusive offline channel for some polar bear ace games from time to time.

This is almost a stone hammer. The game warehouse definitely has a PY relationship with polar bears.

Maybe, it has really been controlled by the polar bear, maybe it is!
But Han Qi is not too worried.

Although Han Qi himself regards the polar bear as the strongest enemy in his consciousness.

But what about the mighty polar bear: a ghost?Who do you send it to?

After applying for an appointment as a Yixing Game Company.

Han Qi met the project manager of the big game warehouse - the games of the low-level company like Yixing are all first reviewed by middle-level leaders like the project manager.

Han Qi entered the project manager's office,
This is a room with a relatively simple decoration style, but a high-brightness light strip is installed on the floor.

The high-brightness light strips make the overall atmosphere a bit pale and uncomfortable.

To Han Qi, it doesn't feel like the office of a manager of a big company.

It's like an interrogation room.

Perhaps, being responsible for reviewing whether the game can enter the game warehouse is indeed a kind of interrogation in itself, right?

The project manager of the game warehouse, named Reynolds, is a black man of French descent.

Han Qi scanned him with a prosthetic eye, and unexpectedly found that Reynolds was on the PNPD's public wanted list.

The crime is illegal production and sales of Black Mewtwo.

Such a wanted fugitive can become a middle-level manager of a large company in a grand manner.

And Hei Chaomeng's business, this is poaching the polar bear's corner!

The game warehouse and polar bears are inextricably linked, but let a person who runs the black super dream business be a manager of the game warehouse?
Han Qi said he didn't understand.

No wonder there are black supermengs of inner ghosts on the market from time to time.

I feel that Reynolds is likely to be a part of Heichaomeng's business, right?

His attitude towards Han Qi was not bad, and after politely asking Han Qi to sit down, he asked, "So, Mr. Han, what kind of works did you bring to Yixing Company this time?"

"According to you, it's a Golden Hand platform game..."

"Although it's a bit embarrassing, I must first remind you that our game warehouse has certain threshold requirements for the games on the shelves in the store."

"If the game is not too powerful, even if it can enter the game warehouse, it can only become a part of the product catalog and be kept in the warehouse."

"In warehouse games, sales are often not too optimistic."

"Our delivery volume will also be relatively small."

It's clear what Reynolds meant.

The outdated Yixing Company, which is on the verge of bankruptcy, is still a previous generation of golden hand platform. Its games may not be eligible to enter the game warehouse.

Or even if it enters, there is a high probability that it can only be pressed into the warehouse, and it will be taken out after the customer orders, and it is unlikely to be put on the shelf.

And everyone knows that a game that cannot be put on the shelves is equivalent to being left in the cold palace.

It is even more difficult to kill it!
But Han Qi is not worried about this, because maybe with the current reputation of Wing Star and Phantom, it is really difficult to get into the shelves of the game warehouse.

But as long as it goes in, coupled with the spread of word-of-mouth in the follow-up market, sales will increase.

More and more consumers want to buy "Age of Empires" by name.

At that time, the large game warehouse will naturally move "Age of Empires" out of the warehouse and put it in a prominent position on the shelf.

If sales continue to increase, maybe they will take the initiative to promote it!

Han Qi, who is currently in his own position and knows a lot, nodded, and said indifferently: "I respect the rules of the market game, and I also believe that "Age of Empires" can win the respect it deserves through word of mouth."

"I suggest you, Mr. Reynolds, to watch the live game of "Age of Empires" first."

"I believe that after watching it, you will recognize the level of this game."

"Let me be a little immodest, I think the RTS games currently on the market are at least the RTS games of the medieval era."

"Nothing compares to Age of Empires."

Reynolds' expression changed.

　Working overtime all night, it's hard to go home, hey... It's more exaggerated than the plot of my novel
