"Nais! Nais, I actually scored 500 points! I'm so awesome!"
"Haha, this game is so fun!"
"..."
Howard's shouts were heard from time to time in the bright study. Amidst the continuous and joyful shouts, the sunlight was slanting little by little.
I don’t know how long it took, but a harsh ringtone rang.
Howard woke up suddenly and realized that it was already dark.
Turning on the light and grabbing the screaming phone, he said impatiently: "Who is it?"
"Howard, you are still at home. You made me wait for half an hour."
OH!
Farke!
Howard's face turned green when the familiar voice reached his ears, and he hurriedly said: "I'm sorry, Qiaolia, I, I just fell asleep! I'll be right back."
"Haha, go ahead and dream. Goodbye."
"No...you..."
Dududu~
Howard was very sad listening to the blind tone on the phone. At this moment, a 'ding~' sound sounded, and his expression changed instantly.
He dropped the phone and rushed to the computer.
"Fake Squid! My 800 points!"
Like Howard, many Americans spent this Sunday in front of a computer screen.
A simple building block game makes people immersed in it.
And then the next morning, a bunch of depressed game fans started recommending the game to their colleagues and friends!
The dealer's store was trampled by more people, and soon the inventory was insufficient, so he had to start calling to request goods.
After receiving the feedback, the person in charge of KGame couldn't stop laughing. While urging his subordinates to ship the product quickly, he called his partners to report the good news.
"What? 100,000!" In the office, He Wuduo held the phone and opened his mouth wide enough to stuff a goose egg into it.
"100,000?" Beside him, Jian Le clenched his hands excitedly, wanting to grab the phone and listen to it again.
What does it mean to sell 100,000 copies in one day? Excluding taxes and the dealer's share, they can get at least 50%, which is 1.5 million US dollars!
This is 1.5 million US dollars. The money they invested was repaid in one day, and they also made a profit of 500,000.
This is faster than robbing money!
"Jian Le, we succeeded!" He Wuduo hung up the phone and said excitedly.
Jian Le opened his hands and hugged He Wuduo, "Brother, my yacht will be delivered soon!"
"Yes, we can have a party on your new yacht to celebrate!" He Wuduo smiled with a smile on his face. By the end of the month, he is likely to become a multi-millionaire.
Just thinking about that feeling is so wonderful!
Just when the two were extremely excited, the door opened with a bang, and Robert walked in swaggeringly.
"He Wuduo, Mr. Jianle, Tetris has exploded. The sales volume should be out. How much is it?"
"Robert, you came just in time." Jian Le said enthusiastically: "We were just about to give you the good news. Yesterday, the sales in the United States totaled 100,000 copies."
"Oh~!"
Robert was shocked. Although he felt that this game would be very popular, he did not expect it to be so popular. One hundred thousand copies a day, and definitely not less than 600,000 copies a month. The profits for the two of them would be in the tens of millions!
Thinking of this, he felt sad. His one million US dollars was really not worth mentioning. He originally thought that arcades and handheld consoles were the big ones, and the profits from computers would be the small part.
But I didn't expect that this little head is not small anymore.
Ten years of copyright, these two guys may not become billionaires through this.
At this time, He Wuduo suddenly remembered the copyright matter. The last time Robert came to the door, he wanted to realize the 10 to 20-year copyright of the game.
Before, he had no money and didn't expect the game to be so popular, so he didn't want to talk about it, but now he thinks about it.
I want to get the copyright for the next ten years as well.
"Robert, weren't you short of money last time and wanted to sell the copyright for the next ten years? We can talk about it now."
Jian Le was surprised and hurriedly said: "Robert, we have enjoyed our cooperation this time, and I believe the next cooperation will be the same. Let's talk about the price now, and we can pay you when the settlement is made at the end of the month."
"Of course, but how much do you think the copyright fee should be? It turns out that Tetris is more popular than we expected, and the previous price was obviously inappropriate." Robert is not stupid. After knowing the value of Tetris, he will not let up easily. .
He Wuduo glanced at Jian Le, then tentatively stretched out two fingers and said: "2 million? Just calculate it according to your previous quotation, Robert!"
"Low." Robert said displeased: "He Wuduo, I regard you as a friend. You should bid honestly, otherwise I will be unhappy."
"Don't get me wrong my friend, I just want to follow your train of thought." He Wuduo shrugged, then looked at Jian Le and motioned for him to come.
Jian Le cleared his throat and said to Robert: "Five million! In addition, the agency rights for the management software have also been extended to 20 years. What about my friends, let's have fun."
"No!" Robert shook his head, pushed up his glasses and said seriously: "Ten million!"
"Ugh, man, your price is too high." Jian Le's face became a little ugly, feeling that this guy was talking too much.
"It's not high at all. Compared with the profit it brings to you, it's nothing to mention." Robert said firmly: "One month's profit can be exchanged for 10 years' profit. You have made a lot of money. Even if the company in the future The share prices of listed companies can also be significantly increased as a result.”
"This..." Jian Le hesitated and had to admit that this guy's words were really tempting. He looked at He Wuduo and wanted to ask for his opinion.
He Wuduo nodded. Although ten million is a lot, if you look at it twice on average, it is only 5.5 million in 10 years, which is really not much.
Seeing this, Jian Le no longer hesitated, looked at Robert and said, "Okay..."
"I'm so sorry everyone! I'm afraid your deal can't be concluded."
At this moment, a refreshing male voice suddenly came. The three of them frowned and looked at the door. Unexpectedly, there were two more men and two women.
"Li?" He Wuduo looked at Li Xiucheng who walked in with some surprise, wondering why he appeared at the door of the company.
Jian Le had a bad temper and roared: "Who allowed you to come in! Get out."
Robert looked baffled, not knowing why this young man would say such things.
Li Xiucheng ignored Jian Le's roar and said to Robert: "Hello, Mr. Robert, I regret to inform you that not only will you not get a penny, but you will also have to compensate me for a large sum of money."
"WHAT?" Robert asked in surprise: "What are you talking about?"
Li Xiucheng smiled easily at him, and then said to He Wuduo: "I am also sorry to inform you, Mr. He Wuduo, not only will you not be able to get the share, but you will also be sued. I have contacted the best lawyer in California and will Accusing you of infringing on my Tetris!"
"Infringement?"
The expressions of the three people suddenly changed.
