Back to 2003

Can a game become a hit?

Player experience is crucial.

The player experience of "Eternal Sword 2" is great, the introduction is atmospheric, it is easy to get started, and the content is in-depth. The computer configuration at this time is not very good, but the running of "Eternal Sword 2" is smooth and silky, which is also the reason why Tang Dynasty An important reason why Tsinghua University chose it.

His purpose for this trip to Han Country was to explore the bottom of the game, understand the development level of "Eternal Sword 2", and see if he could reach a cooperation intention with YM before the agent in his previous life.

"Mr. Tang, have you contacted the other company?"

Qiao Ya suddenly thought of a problem.

"Not yet... I only know that the company is in the capital, but I don't know the specific address."

Tang Qinghua shook his head in embarrassment again.

At this time, it is not like ten years later. The situation of large Internet companies can be clearly checked on the Internet. Now even if you know about YM, you can hardly find out much. You can only find a solution in the cold country.

"You are too unreliable!"

Qiao Ya was speechless and thought of another question: "Then do we have a translator?"

"It seems... not at all."

Tang Qinghua slapped his head in embarrassment again.

"You really want to come to the Cold Country to see the snow!"

Zhao Zhuoyan curled his lips and was speechless.

Even if you don't have a translator and don't know the address, you just go to a cold country to wander around. How can this be the attitude of talking about things?

"I actually... came to see the beauty!"

Embarrassed, Tang Qinghua replied shamelessly.

Zhao Zhuoyan: "..."

Qiao Ya: "..."

When we don't exist?

……

The hotel was not far from the airport, and the three of them took action immediately upon arrival.

The first thing is to hire translators, which is not difficult. The hotel learned that they were Chinese and immediately recommended several translators for them.

In addition to English, which is required for college entrance examination students in the cold country, they also need to choose a foreign language. Although most of them learn Japanese, there are also many people learning Chinese, so there are also many people in South Korea who can speak Chinese.

The translation was finally sent,

He is a college boy in his twenties.

The boy had a gentle face and black-rimmed eyes. His first impression was not bad, but after seeing the two beauties Qiao Ya and Zhao Zhuoyan, he was instantly stunned by the beauty of the two women and started to stutter when he spoke...

"Nihao...my name is...Park Sang-woo..."

The boy made an effort to introduce himself.

But his Chinese proficiency is really not very good, and it is very difficult to communicate.

"You guys... want to know... YM Entertainment?"

Park Xiangyu tried his best to smile and said word by word: "I know..."

After some awkward exchanges, the three of them finally got the company address of YM Entertainment. Although Yitian Sword is not well-known in Han Kingdom, it is considered one of the old games and has many loyal players. It is not difficult to know the company address. .

I also asked some basic information about YM Entertainment, such as the Heavenly Sword series of games, their popularity in the Cold Country, what other medium-sized game companies there are in the Cold Country, etc.It is estimated that Park Sang-woo loves to play games, and he is very clear about these. When they were two children, the three of them finally had a general understanding of the game industry in Han Kingdom.

"Thank you, this is your commission."

After the understanding was completed, Tang Qinghua paid the commission on the spot.

A full 700 cold coins is more than 16000 yuan when converted into RMB. At this time, the per capita monthly income in South Korea is around [-] RMB. This fee is higher than the normal translation fee.

"Thank you--"

Looking at the money in his hand, Park Sang-woo was full of surprises.

Aren’t Chinese people very poor?It was just a simple inquiry and I paid so much!

"You're welcome, goodbye!"

Tang Qinghua nodded and saw off the guests with a smile.

It's not that he spends money lavishly, he just uses money to send people away - this kind of half-hearted translator is too tiring to communicate, so it would be better to use another one.

"Mr. Tang——"

Before Park Sang-woo went out and left, he suddenly turned his head: "If you want to discuss cooperation with YM Entertainment, I can help you introduce... My uncle is the director of YM Entertainment."

"What, wait a minute!"

Tang Qinghua, who was just about to chase people away, his eyes suddenly lit up!

The minister of Hanguo Company is similar to the department manager or director of Huaxia Company. He is already a middle- and upper-level manager. If there is such a person to pull the strings, it will definitely be a good opportunity.

"Mr. Park, Director Qiao will contact you."

Tang Qinghua tried the color on Qiao Ya, who immediately greeted her with a smile.

When dealing with these college students, mature beauties like Qiao Ya are more professional... At least, that's what Tang Qinghua thinks!

……

Riverside, evening.

In a certain office building.

A middle-aged man in a suit stood in front of the window, looking at the river in deep thought.

As the president of YM Entertainment, Li Daen has been under great pressure during this period.

As one of the earliest game development companies in the Cold Kingdom, YM Entertainment is not a famous company, but with the support of the excellent game "Eternal Sword", it can't say that it is rich in wealth, but it is also living a comfortable life. YM Entertainment did not rest on its laurels, but spent a lot of money to develop "Eternal Sword 2" on the basis of "Eternal Sword" and prepare to create greater glory.

Unexpectedly, "Hot Blood" emerged out of nowhere and occupied half of the Chinese game market in one fell swoop.Due to the lack of updates, the old Yitian Sword has long been unable to succeed. Under the impact of "Miracle" and "Magic", it quickly declined and was dying...

Yitian Sword has been around for several years, so it is normal for it to end its life.

However, "Yitian Sword 2", which was fully developed, also suffered from a crisis of trust. The old agents decisively rejected the new Yitian. YM Entertainment had no choice but to release the news of recruiting agents, but only a few companies came forward.

And these few companies are not optimistic about Yi Tian Jian Er, and the agency prices offered are pitifully low. Some people even proposed a free model of not paying agency fees and only sharing profits. Li Daen was so angry that he almost cursed - in In this era, agency fees are the bulk of the effort. As for profit sharing, who knows how much money you can make!

In addition to the low agency fees, these agents are not regular game companies, and they know little about the online game market. They only wanted to enter the online game market after seeing Shengda Group making huge profits. I'm an absolute newbie here.

Heavenly Sword 2 is the hard work of YM Entertainment. Handing it over to these novice agents is tantamount to a pearl covered in dust, which is really not what Li Daen wants.However, the game development is nearing completion and should have entered the internal testing stage long ago. The Huaxia agent has not yet been negotiated. No wonder he is under great pressure - the revenue from the Huaxia Game Market accounts for 60.00% of YM Entertainment's total revenue.

"Representative Huang, which agent do you think is more suitable?"

After a long silence, Li Daen asked the representative smoking on the sofa.

The representatives in Hanguo companies are usually director representatives and have great power, just like the supervisors in Huaxia companies.

"Mr. President——"

Representative Huang bowed and was well prepared for this, "There are a total of seven Chinese companies that we have formally negotiated with. Among them, Yuefeng Network Company is the most suitable. They own two medium-sized music websites in China and are familiar with the Internet. , have traffic, know how to promote, and have a little understanding of the game market...but their funds are not sufficient, and the agency fees they give are very low.”
