The Richest Man in the World of Film and Television

Cut, send off beggars, William has now sold almost 5 game discs, and the money he got is almost 20 pounds, and he wants to buy the game copyright with only 100 million pounds, go to hell.

100 million pounds is not enough to buy the agency rights in London, and I want to buy the full copyright. I am a fool, and it is not like you to pick up the leaks.

After William sold 5 game discs, he agreed to get 10 copies from the board. London can sell 5 copies now, which has greatly exceeded William's expectations.

Now 2% of the marketing students at the University of London are selling game discs to him, and many guys are now selling game discs out of school under the guise of helping Alexander Hammer with a project.

Some smart guys have gone out of London to sell to middle schools and universities in surrounding cities. Now many people on the Internet are asking where they can buy the game disk of Plants vs. Zombies.

Schools are also paying more and more attention to this new marketing case. First, make a name for yourself in colleges and universities, then spread to other universities, and then spread to middle schools. In the end, primary schools will attract strong attention from the society. The company doesn't even need to spend much money on publicity, and the product can cause a sensation in the society.

The most concerned thing in a family is the children, and the parents who the children like will pay attention.

In school, whether it is a university, middle school or elementary school, other students who are concerned by classmates will pay attention to it, because everyone has friends, and if friends like you, if you have never heard of it or played it, you will lose face.

As long as things that are particularly popular among teenagers are popular in society now, after the Plants vs. Zombies game discs sold 15 game discs in and around London in less than a month, a big game company finally found them William.

Chapter 8 The game peripherals are the most profitable

After selling 15 copies, William stopped producing game disks. Now he knows that the price of 6 pounds is a bargain, and many guys in the school have sold more than 10 pounds each. Although it is not much, it is not too little. .

In this way, William will save hundreds of thousands of pounds, but he can't help it. The most important thing for him now is to make the game famous. If he sells more than 10 pounds, he can sell 5 copies now, which is considered thankful.

The sales volume of the game in London has exploded. The sales volume and favorable reviews have made EA, Ubisoft, these big game companies, game agents and supermarkets even come here, and even the American DVD and computer game monopoly Beststar have come here. These days, they have lost hundreds of thousands of dollars. Think of the pound as the wages of the hundreds of alumni at the University of London who sold games to him, and the advertising fees to attract these big companies.

A few days ago, William received inquiries from these companies, saying that he would go to the top-ranked big law firms in London after they said they wanted to negotiate representation or buy the game.

Anthony, the senior partner of Yuelinda Law Firm, William will spend 1000 pounds an hour to hire this guy, and this kind of negotiation can't be concluded in a few days or ten days.

Then I have to pay Anthony this guy tens of thousands of pounds. Fortunately, William signed an hourly contract with Yue Lida Law Firm. .

William booked a meeting room at the Hilton Hotel in London, and he met Anthony from Moonlight Law Firm at eight o'clock in the morning.

After meeting, William and Anthony shook hands, and asked with a smile: "Good morning, Mr. Anthony, it's eight o'clock, will the billing start?"

Anthony knew that William was joking: "Good morning, Mr. Devonhill, if you think it would make you happier to start billing in ten minutes, then we will start billing at 8:10, I don't mind."

"Haha, Anthony, you are very humorous, I like you, well, let's get to the point, I need you to help me solve all the legal problems, it's okay"

"Of course it's okay, Mr. Devonhill, that's what we do. I guarantee that there will be no problems with the contract handled by our law firm. This is our Yueshida's confidence and commitment," Anthony said to William Said.

William nodded in agreement, which is why he hired Yueshida's lawyer, "OK, I still trust you Yueshida very much. As the top three law firms in England, your strength and reputation should not be questioned. Then Anthony Let's get started, it's going to be a busy day."

William shook hands with Anthony's four team members. 4 pounds an hour can hire the best lawyer and his team in London. William doesn't think it is expensive at all. If there is a problem because the lawyer is not professional enough, William has no chance to cry.

Of course, only barristers can make a lot of money as lawyers, and a month of working for a barrister is only a few thousand pounds.

At 9 o'clock, several big companies such as EA, Ubisoft, Best Star, Jiarefu and other game companies arrived on time.

After everyone found a good location, William was not polite. Everything depends on the quality and sales of the game, as well as the profit. No matter how good the other words are, these game companies and agents will not be interested.

William took the microphone and walked up to the platform of the conference room and said: "Welcome, gentlemen, my name is William Devinhill, the game producer, designer and everyone of Plants vs. Zombies. Don't waste everyone's time. Many people and companies have come to me these days, which let me know that everyone is here to buy out the game copyright, or to act as an agent for the game sales rights. I am right to say that "

After William finished talking, the company's negotiators nodded and didn't say much. These companies have sent people to find William these days, but William has never said anything. Although they are optimistic about this game, they don't want to be rejected by William. Take it for granted, listen to what William wants to say first.

William went on to say: "Then gentlemen, let me first talk about the bottom line I can accept. If there is too much difference from what you can accept, please be quiet if you are dissatisfied. Listen to me, okay?"

Everyone looked at each other, all of them were competitors, the game was only famous for a few days, and the companies that could come to this meeting were very optimistic about Plants vs. Zombies, and now no one wanted to be the first bird, let alone William's request Not too much, so they all nodded again.

William was happy and thought, "It seems that these guys are still very optimistic about Plants vs. Zombies, especially those game agents. They don't make games and only represent games. Of course they don't want to let go of good games."

Seeing that no one objected, William nodded his thanks and said, "Thank you everyone, let's talk about the agency first. The agency price I can accept is 8 pounds per game disc. 8 pounds is almost 13 dollars. I think Plants vs. Zombies sells for 20 dollars in the United States." There should be no problem. Everyone knows that the purchase price of EPS games in the late 80s was 25 US dollars. You are all experts in the game industry. Can you accept the pound sterling? If you can accept it, we will continue to talk.

EA and Ubisoft didn't think about agency, but they were afraid that the remaining companies would increase the agency price. When William stopped selling games, they would come for nothing. They nodded and said: "8 pounds can accept,"

The agents thought about it, they were all specialized in game agents and knew that what William said was right, there was no popular game in the United States that was less than $20, but seeing the game company's promise, they secretly hated, "These guys should go to hell." , my company's games are so expensive, and now I'm competing with us for agency'

People from Baishida and Jiarefu also nodded as they accepted the price.

"Very good, everyone can accept the price of 8 pounds, then we will have the conditions to continue the negotiation. I have this information on the sales of 15 game discs in London in a month, so I will not send it to everyone. You must all know it, which is why we can all sit together, you may not know this second share, but I think Refu should know it."

William stopped to look at the person in charge of Jia Refu, and he nodded with a smile, because it has something to do with their Jia Refu.

20 days ago, I signed an authorization contract with Jiarefu for daily necessities such as T-shirts and hats. Now I think it’s too early to sign, but it doesn’t matter. In the 5 counties around London, the production authorization of the cartoon characters of Plants vs. Zombies, in the first 15 days of sale, the sales data of Plants vs. Zombies in 120 stores around London was 43 pieces, with an average of 15 pieces sold in 3600 days per store. , selling 240 pieces a day, the turnover is 645 million pounds, an average of 15 pounds per piece.

Hearing the data that William said, it was the first time that everyone in the conference room knew about it, except for the people in Jiarefu.

Hearing that 15 million pounds was sold in the surrounding 5 counties in London in 645 days. If the game can sell for a lot of money in the world after the game becomes popular, these guys immediately became excited.

The peripherals of Plants vs. Zombies are the big money-makers. Europe and the United States are very strict in copyright inspections. This kind of lawsuit with clear copyright is one of the most accurate.

So Jia Refu is very happy now, they came here because they want to sell the game peripherals, but after today's game peripherals are sold out, Jia Refu just wants to pick up a bargain.

William knew that the companies that were here today were not the only ones that would come tomorrow.

After everyone quieted down, William went on to say: "Then if any of you want the full copyright of Plants vs. After a few years, it will not be difficult to sell more than 100 million copies."

The faces of the agents are now looking ugly. They don't estimate much in their hearts. Some of them estimate that there are more than this, but there are only a few hundred thousand more.

Although there are many good games in the year 2000, there is still no game like Plants vs. Zombies. No matter the elderly, children or adults will be interested in this game.You must know that Plants vs. Zombies has been downloaded more than 13 million times in 2500 years

William went on to say: "In the United States of America, selling 200 million copies will not be a problem. Other countries can add up to about 200 million copies. Gentlemen, please think of a game that can sell more than 700 million copies plus the game Surroundings, how much wealth can he create for you?"

"FUCK, it is to create wealth for you."Everyone cursed in their hearts.

Chapter 9 I want to sell [-] million pounds

William smiled and looked at everyone who was doing it and stopped talking. He knew that what he said was almost the same. Those who have spent their entire lives in games know how much wealth games can create, so there is no need for him to say more.
