Game Development Giant

After waiting for the sales representatives for more than half an hour, Jester came to the reception room alone.

They are still the four largest sellers in Southern California, led by Schwere Group, but the people coming this time are completely different from the last time.

When the four of them saw Jester coming in, they quickly stood up with respectful expressions on their faces, completely losing the arrogance they had last time, as if they were giving alms.

Keep everyone waiting, I'm discussing sales with a salesperson in San Jose. After all, they want a lot this time, a thousand units! Jester said with a smile on his face. Smiling, talking about things that didn't exist at all, saying sorry, but there was no hint of it in his tone.

Hearing Jester's words, the old man who was the leader of the four eyebrows jumped fiercely, and a trace of anger flashed in his eyes. He clenched his palms hard, and the veins on the back of his hands popped, and he forced himself to suppress the anger.

Mr. Li.

The leading old man is a white man in his fifties. His blond hair is meticulously combed, his nose is slender, his skin is fair, and the suit he is wearing is spotless. He has a strong Ruhr accent, and his green eyes look... Looking at Jester, he bowed slightly and said: Our Schwere Group apologizes for what happened last time, and we have already complied with your wishes. That idiot Kaili has been fired by us, and the other three , and the same result.

The other three dealers also nodded in agreement.

Then the old man stretched out a hand to Jester, showed a self-righteous smile, and said: Let's get acquainted again, Werner Heine, the executive director of the Schwer Group, we This time I come here with 120,000 sincerity. We are unconditional on all the conditions you proposed last time...

hehe!

Jester ignored the palm stretched out in front of him and interrupted him with a few mocking laughs.

The face of the old man named Werner Heine changed, and the gloomy look in his eyes flashed away. He retracted his outstretched palm, but his face still showed the kind smile. Showing no trace of embarrassment.

This made Jester marvel. It was not easy for this German to endure being so humiliated by him.

Who is this sir...I'm sorry I forgot your name.

Jester dragged a swivel chair from the side and sat down. He crossed his legs and looked at the four sales representatives with squinting eyes. He pinched his teeth and said, The conditions we negotiated last time are not suitable for this situation. In this negotiation, we made our offer very sincerely last time, which is the treatment only given to friends, but you rejected our friendship, so the last offer is invalid.

you!

Hearing Jester's words and such a gesture, a sales representative suddenly took a step forward, his face turned red with anger, You agreed last time...

Hey!

Jester let out a cold laugh, looked disdainfully at the sales representative whose name he didn't even bother to ask, and said contemptuously: Times have changed.

The old man named Werner Heine coughed, and the sales representative who was angry at Jester's humiliation retreated angrily. Then the executive director of the Schwer Group turned to Jester. , his face became serious.

Then what conditions do you want? What I need to warn you is that our Schwere Group and the other three sellers also have a bottom line. Werner Heine's voice was slow and low, even vaguely threatening. means.

Jester still smiled disdainfully after hearing this.

It's just pretentious.

I am willing to talk to you just because of your sales channels. Not only do you occupy the sales channels in California, but you can also quickly distribute goods throughout the United States. This is the reason why I am willing to talk. If you really think that I will leave If your company, Schwerer, can't do anything, then I tell you, you are wrong. Jester's tone was extremely strong and full of confidence.

Moreover, on the entire West Coast, you are not the only sales companies that can distribute goods throughout the United States.

After listening to Jester's words, although the expression on Werner Heine's face did not change at all, he did sigh heavily deep in his heart.

He knew that what the other party said was right. American Cube has already swept most of California, and it is inevitable that it will become popular on the West Coast and then the whole country. If they don't take action now, they don't need those big sellers from other states to come. The other small sellers in California, who have been eyeing their market share for a long time, have long been unable to bear it. By that time, they will not even be able to drink soup.

He now somewhat resents Kaili for screwing up this matter before, even though the price proposed by the other party at that time was almost blackmail, and no other seller would agree to it.

But... Werner Heine took a serious look at Jester at this time. He was a little curious as to why this young man was so confident in his game. At that time, just succeeding in a small Costa Mesa could make him Is he so confident? Or is it so conceited?

Then, state your conditions. Thinking of these, Werner Heine was a little uninterested. He knew that the two parties in this negotiation were not on the same level of fairness at all, and blackmail was inevitable.

Because in their line of work, failure to advance will lead to retreat. If they cannot win the agency sales rights of American Cube, then if it is taken away by other sellers, they will not only lose the considerable benefits brought by this game. Profits, as well as the markets that their sales companies value most.

Certain profits can be given up, but market share cannot be given up.

After all, Schwere got on the big ship of Atari back then and achieved its current scale.

Moreover, with the collapse of Atari and the downturn of the gaming market, especially the console market, the market for entertainment equipment has shrunk by at least half in the past year. As the company's top executive and executive director, Werner Heine knew that if If this continues, the company will most likely collapse early.

He knew this, and so did Jester, so Jester could be confident in negotiations.

Just let the other villain succeed first! After passing this difficulty, there will naturally be a chance for revenge, Werner Heine thought.

Seeing that the other party showed signs of surrendering so quickly, Jester felt a little unhappy. He had not yet avenged enough.

But as the saying goes, heroes don't laugh at people who laugh, so Jester didn't bother anymore.

Jester pulled out a stack of printed documents from the folder he carried with him, threw them in front of Werner Heine and the other four, and said lightly: Don't change a word, sign.

This is what Carey Thomas of Schwere Group said to Jester during the last negotiation. Jester felt full of humiliation at the time, and now he returns the original words.

Unexpectedly, Werner Heine, who had originally planned to compromise, suddenly turned red when he heard Jester's words, and his eyes stared at Jester as if they could shoot out destructive flames.

His teeth were clenching, and the veins in his fists were bulging.

Jester was also taken aback by this sudden turn of events. Previously, he could tolerate the other party's cynicism with a smile. This time, he just returned the other party's words unchanged, making the other party so unbearable?

Werner Heine stared at Jester for three seconds, his lips moving as if he wanted to say something, and then his face seemed to have turned pale for twenty years in an instant, and he let out a big sigh.

Let me take a look at the contract first...

After saying that, like a dying old man, he lifelessly took the agreement that Jester threw over and read through it.

Jester was a little confused about this. He couldn't understand why the German guy acted so fiercely just now.

It wasn't until later, when he told a friend about it, that he realized the whole story.

Just because Werner Heine was a German.

Moreover, his ancestors had participated in World War I, and several of his immediate family members had died on the battlefield in that unprecedented war.

At the end of World War I, Germany surrendered, and when the Versailles Peace Treaty was signed, German representatives did not even have the right to participate in the discussion of its contents.

After the discussions between Britain and France were completed, Georges Clemenceau, the prime minister of France at the time and known as the greatest politician of the French Third Republic, threw the contract in front of the German representatives, leaving behind that famous saying.

Every item cannot be changed, sign it!

For the Germans, this is an extremely humiliating contract. No bloody German will ever accept this contract, which seems to be a charity. It is extremely insulting and almost deprives Germany of their rights. A contract to survive in the sun.

Therefore, almost every German hates the Treaty of Versailles and the people who signed it, especially George Clemenceau.

It can even be said unceremoniously that, to a certain extent, it was this extremely harsh contract that caused the outbreak of World War II twenty years later.

To give a not-so-appropriate example, if you say this famous saying of Clemenceau to a German, it is like a Japanese saying contemptuously to a Chinese: Hey, China pig, come here and eat pigs. .”

This hatred runs deep into the bones.

Jester sighed for a long time after knowing the allusion here. He didn't expect that the German guy could even endure this.

But by that time, Schwer Company no longer existed.

Werner Heine read the agreement drawn up by Jester. This was an agreement that left no room for both parties at all. Every word and even every punctuation was filled with Jester's greed. He almost wanted to Squeeze out all the profits.

Not only did he increase the selling price of each unit to $6,000, but he also shared 20% of the sales profits of these sellers of the Schwer Group. He also specifically stipulated that if they could not sell a certain amount within six months, then Mars Entertainment has the right to take back the exclusive agency rights given to Schwer's four sales companies.

They even asked their four companies to place the first order of 5,000 units. Doesn’t this damn vampire know that 5,000 units, based on 6,000 US dollars per unit, is a total of 30 million US dollars!

This is a contract that no seller can tolerate.

But after Werner Heine read it, he signed his name without saying a word. The other three companies originally wanted to argue with Jester because the agreement was too harsh.

But after they saw Werner Heine signing his name without hesitation, they all signed their own names reluctantly with a grimace.

They were originally headed by Werner Heine, and even their own leaders agreed. What other options could there be on our side?

The choice is not ours. Werner Heine said in a low voice to the other three representatives.

After signing, the four of them left without looking back.

Before leaving, perhaps because this agreement was too deceptive, Werner Heine couldn't help but sneered at Jester: Young man, you should leave room for business and don't be too arrogant. .”

Jester just laughed and replied disdainfully: How can you call me a young man if you are not so arrogant?
