Chapter 26: Game copyright dispute (has signed a, rest assured
When he got home, Duke couldn't wait to surf the Internet and found Hellfire. When he contacted someone to buy the copyright of the game, he said it was quite simple, and he didn't even mention Qin Chu's name, let alone what the two parties had already discussed. It can be seen that after some things, Duke's emotional intelligence was also greatly trained. Finally, Duke asked, "Huo Da, how much do you think we should offer to Santa?" This was quite skillful, showing his own tendencies without any trace, and also testing the website's valuation bottom line for the adaptation rights of this game.
Hellfire didn't expect someone to come to poach so soon. It was the top three domestic games. The boss explained his determination to win the game adaptation rights. Before he could think of how to talk to Duke, his competitors had already arrived. For a moment, Hellfire felt extremely stressed. It was originally a big situation, but as Sanda, the disruptor, came in, suddenly became serious, but Duke's question was really hard to answer.
"Duke, the article serialization has just begun. It seems that it is too early to talk about the copyright of this game. If you talk too early, it may not be conducive to your interests. Do you think you should wait and see?" Hellfire thought for a while and should use a slowdown first.
"I don't think the problem is big. Anyway, the story is written now. If the game can be developed at the same time, it can be done while the iron is hot and the game will be launched during the serialization period. It will be easier to attract users." Duke chatted with Qin Chu today, and he already had an idea in his mind. In addition, he was infected by Qin Chu, and he consciously had some experience. "Look, even big companies like Shengda have come to the door. Can we contact the other two companies and see the reaction? Is it easier to sell one by one by one?
Good price?" As Duke's thinking broadened, he suddenly felt unhappy. "I think, let's find a big company to develop. The big company has strong funds and strong development strength. If you can develop high-quality products, maybe it's a Chinese version of the monster, and you can also rush out of the country." Hellfire saw the penguin spitting out Duke's yy like flowing water. Although he secretly complained that this guy was really daring to think about it, he felt even more bitter. The subsequent negotiations became more and more difficult. But this matter was not over yet.
"If it is a big company, I feel that the game will be popular, so I will not sell it this time and take the share." Duke continued. "I just don't know what the share ratio is appropriate?" Seeing this, Hellfire was shocked, and his qi and blood couldn't help but churn. Hellfire felt that he could no longer be silent and let Duke yy go. "Duke, stop," Hellfire replied, "As far as I know, it seems that no online writer can participate in the adaptation of online game share."
"No, haha, that's right, I can still create history." Duke said easily without considering the feeling of Hellfire almost vomiting blood. To be honest, if Qin Chu hadn't come to the door to fool him like this, Duke wouldn't have thought of these things? Even the game adaptation rights, film and television adaptation rights, etc., could have sold more than one million online articles in Kriszhang. It solved the current urgent problem. Duke was already very satisfied and did not realize how much profit it would be extracted from this novel. However, after Qin Chu's tossing, Duke found that there were such good things, and he couldn't help but feel alive. Qin Chu described a big cake that could be sold abroad, and Duke actually believed it a little, which shows that this young man with low emotional intelligence was too easy to be fooled.
"Create history?" Hellfire felt a stagnant, and he didn't spit out a mouthful of blood. Damn, this person really can't praise him. Did he praise Duke too much some time ago and make this bear man so hard that he couldn't find him.
"Duke, I think, in business, there are rules for our business, and it is not good to be too independent. You should leave this game copyright to the company, how about it? You have signed a share agreement with the company. We also hope that this copyright can be sold high. If you make more money, you will get more. Do you think?" Hellfire replied tactfully, beginning to intentionally establish its dominance in this matter. Hellfire thought, you really can't be used to this problem, although you, Duke, are you now.
The great god's domineering aura began to become popular, but people can't be so arrogant. It is better for our company to dominate the copyright. When Hellfire said this, he still had some confidence in his heart. If he was anxious, he would break the ban trick. I won't serialize the remaining articles. Anyway, it's a buyout agreement. There is no clause in the agreement that I must complete the articles I bought. I will drop this story and see that you are still so proud! Of course, this is a completely inferior strategy for both sides to suffer losses.
"It's so popular, you can't say that. We'll discuss it more appropriately." Duke saw that the taste was a bit wrong. He had read the agreement specifically. When was the company's dominant game copyright? There was only one priority in the agreement. If you sold more and didn't understand the market, you had no problem with the company. Now there is a better money-making plan, why can't you mention it? "I personally think that the way of sharing this is better. Let me see what they think about this. You can also launch it here, contact several other major game companies, and talk about our ideas with them. Maybe some people think this plan is also good." Duke insisted.
He didn't say anything more than a long sentence. When he said this, both sides felt that it was not very meaningful. Duke just made a few random sentences and then finished it. However, Duke always thought it was a good idea for his own share. After he went offline, Duke finally felt a little unwilling to accept it. Thinking of Qin Chu, he didn't care if it was too late, and called Qin Chu, "Duke, hello, what, share, share, I really haven't heard of this company doing this." Qin Chu was quite happy at first when he saw that it was Duke's call, but when he heard about Duke's share conditions, he couldn't help but be stunned.
"Other companies have not operated it. Can your company be the first to be the first to try it out?" Duke was a little discouraged when he heard Qin Chu say this. It seems that Hellfire has not lie to him, but he still did not give up. The book can be published in proportion and the movie can be divided into the money. Why can't it work in this game?
Duke's problem really stumped Qin Chu. To be honest, before coming, Qin Chu had some ideas and plans for various situations, such as high asking prices and additional supplementary conditions, but he didn't expect to divide it into this issue. The world is really changing too quickly, but Qin Chu did not have the confidence to be in Hellfire. He originally came to him so early, hoping to take the lead among many competitors. After all, there are not many good novels now, and there are only a few that rank in the top few every year, and even fewer suitable for adapting games. Therefore, they are always robbing the heads, and the final success is also expensive.
This time I was interested in Duke's work. The story was wonderful and beautiful. The new world architecture described in it was completely a brand new thing, which is even more valuable for a game. Who wouldn't want to play something novel? The problem is that there are too few innovative things now. It is precisely for this reason that Qin Chu decided to take action first. In the early stage of the work, he got Duke's contact information through internal channels and rushed to Rongcheng directly. He would rather give a seemingly sky-high copyright transfer fee now than get the game adaptation rights of this work first. However, this sky-high transfer fee is based on the price of popular online articles in recent years, but there is no such statement.
After Duke said this, Qin Chu was really hard to answer. He was the first to eat crabs? Don’t eat crabs but instead they were eaten by crabs.
"Mr. Duke, frankly, we have never operated this model of division. Otherwise, I will think about it first. Let's find some time to talk about it tomorrow?" Qin Chu was stunned for a while and decided to slow down and talk to the company boss about this matter first. "Okay, I don't want to be more meaningful, I'll disturb you." Duke heard Qin Chu say this, and after hanging up the phone, his original excitement became a little depressed. In his opinion, this matter is quite normal. The publishing entity Piaotianwen can also be divided according to subscriptions. Why can't it be divided into the game? This is obviously unreasonable. Duke's thinking is trapped in this vicious circle and inevitably becomes a little paranoid. No, I just do it, at worst I won't sell it. Duke thought for a long time, and finally made up his mind secretly.
If Qin Chu knew that he had brought such a great influence to Duke, Qin Chu would have never been there, let alone those passionate words, depicting such a huge painting cake. On this night, not only Duke was depressed, but also Qin Chu was very worried about how to communicate with his boss.
The first thing he did after Hellfire went offline was to contact his boss and report the latest situation Balabara. The editor-in-chief felt very difficult after hearing this. He didn't expect that Duke, a pink and tender newcomer, had such a harsh side. This was really beyond his expectations. The unexpected intervention of Sanda, a powerful opponent, made things so troublesome. The editor-in-chief couldn't help but regret it. When he was optimistic about this work, why didn't he think about buying out the copyright of the game? He was careless, he was really careless. Now he was new.
People slowly become great gods, and they don’t know how much price they have to pay to win. Shengda’s intervention also made an affirmation of his own vision indirectly, indicating that this work has great prospects in online games, so that he cannot fail. After all, in online games competition, there are not many golden opportunities that can not only strengthen themselves but also attack opponents. Perhaps it is good to operate according to the share method, at least the risk of investment in the early stage is less. Although the share in the later stage affects the gross profit margin, it is at least based on the profit.
I have to say that the editor-in-chief turned his head faster and pointed directly at the core of interests, making an originally complicated thing simpler in an instant.
