"This old fellow, I've finally seen the poor!" when he heard shannei Pu's last words, boss Jia couldn't help smiling. He thought shannei Pu was a tyrant, but a aboveboard tyrant.
I didn't expect this tyrant to play Yin.
I believe you have seen that what is unqualified and what needs to be improved is nonsense. It is just the statement of Pu Yamauchi to deliberately suppress Tian Jizhi.
To be clear, shanneipu is greedy for the Pokemon, sees the potential of this game, and wants to spend money to get the Pokemon into his own hands.
Although Tian Jiri now actively wants to release Pokemon on Nintendo platform, this game is ultimately owned by others. At that time, the profit will be divided with Tian Jiri. It's more comfortable to directly grasp all the revenue of the game in your own hands.
"Mr. Jia..." of course, Tian Jizhi couldn't make a decision. He had to look back and ask in an inquiring tone.
"President, I think..." Jia Yapeng lowered his head and said a few words in Tian Jizhi's ear. Tian Jizhi nodded and said to Yamauchi, "President Yamauchi, thank you very much for your help to us, but it's the painstaking efforts of a group of us. We hope to improve them ourselves. If your company is not satisfied, we can change it to satisfaction!"
"You are the elder I admire most. You will certainly help our younger generation, right?" Tian Jizhi looked at shannei Pu with adoring eyes, which made shannei Pu very helpless.
"This little fox!" Shan Nei Pu muttered. Tian Jizhi blocked his words to death, so that Shan Nei Pu didn't even have a way to lose his temper. Shan Nei Pu is also the king of the game industry. How can he lose his temper with such a weak younger generation with a good attitude?
At the same time, Yamauchi also understood that Tian Jiji was not stupid, and at least the Secretary followed by Tian Jiji was not stupid. Originally, shannei Pu wanted to take advantage of Tian Jizhi's young and simple weakness to deceive the Pokemon's control, just as shannei Pu did in his previous life.
In his previous life, Yamauchi Pu only used 30 million yen to obtain 49% of the shares of tianjizhi company, which is really a cost-effective deal.
Now that he has been blocked by the Secretary, he no longer wants to take advantage of others, nor will he threaten Tian Jizhi with the GB platform.
Although Yamauchi Pu is a cover up in the game industry, there are some bottom lines that can not be touched, such as the IP of the third party of the game.
If Yamauchi Pu likes which game IP, he will use the platform in his hand to get it, and Nintendo will completely ignite the anger of all third-party game companies.
Yamauchi himself knows that these game companies have long been full of resentment against Nintendo because of Yamauchi's tyrannical style. If Yamauchi Pu seizes the game of a third-party game company through this means, even if it is still an unsold game that has not been verified by the market, it will also bring a great sense of crisis to other third-party game companies.
It might explode.
Yamauchi Pu has received some information. It is said that these damn guys Sony are secretly developing consoles and want to enter their own market. If all third-party game manufacturers explode at that time, it will not be fun.
This is the bottom line of all game companies. Even Yamauchi Pu dare not destroy this bottom line.
If Tian Jiri Zhi willingly agreed to come down, other game manufacturers naturally have nothing to say, but if Pu Qiao in the mountain seizes it, it will really lead to a huge crisis.
Pu in the mountain can still distinguish the weight.
"Well, since you say so, I won't mind your own business. Although your game score is only 85 points, it still meets the review standard and can pass the final review!" Yamauchi Pu said faintly, "if you don't want to make any more changes, you can make a decision today, start burning immediately and prepare for sale next month!"
"Really!!" Tian Jizhi immediately showed infinite joy. The whole person jumped up excitedly and hugged Jia Yapeng behind him. He was as excited as a child.
"Then the next question is the price!" Yamauchi coughed. "I don't know how much Mr. Tian Jiri plans to price?"
"Well, we're going to release green and red versions, and the price of each version is 3999 yen!" Tian Jizhi and Jia Yapeng have discussed the price for a long time, so they quickly said, "as for the overseas version, we think $39 is more appropriate."
"Yes!" Shan Nei Pu nodded, and he thought so.
Nintendo's game cards are generally priced between 1999 yen and 5999 yen, or between $19 and $59. The price varies according to the content of the game.
This content does not refer to the game capacity, but the playable time of the game itself and the richness of the content.
Generally speaking, ordinary players can play a weekly game in one day, and the price will be less than 2999 yen.
If you can play a week in three days, it will be 3999 yen.
Three months is almost the limit of a game content. As for the above 4999 yen and 5999 yen, it is a brand blessing on the game field.
For example, your game is called Mario. The original price of 3999 can be sold to 5999.
Although Pokemon is a brand-new game, it doesn't have any brand value. It's reasonable that the price is expensive. After all, people's final fantasy 5 will sell 4999.
However, Pokemon's playability is very high, although the main plot can be pushed out in a few hours as long as it is fast enough. But it contains the elements of monster cultivation. I'm afraid it's OK to play for hundreds of days, so the price of 3999 is also reasonable.
After discussing the pricing, the next step is the sharing problem.
Yamauchi Pu glanced at Jia Yapeng and said, "according to our Nintendo consistent agreement, after deducting the burning fee, we will share 50-50!"
As soon as he opened his mouth, more than half of his profits were gone.
Nintendo is tougher than apple. Apple only wants you 30%, but Nintendo directly wants 50%. You have to be his grandson. This is the domineering platform advantage.
And more than 50% of the profits. Generally, burning a cassette tape, including the cost of the cassette tape, is about 800 yen, while Nintendo directly charges 1000 yen.
Although it only earns 200 yen, these can all be Nintendo's own. If game manufacturers dare to burn their own tapes, Nintendo will refuse to burn the tapes burned by third parties on the grounds that they can't believe in quality assurance and will damage the reputation of the platform.
In a word, you can't go on sale without this money.
"No problem!" these sharing rules are the same for all game companies, so Tian Jiri Zhi directly agreed without any hesitation.
"Then the last question, how many tapes do you intend to print in the first batch?" Yamauchi asked, squinting at Tian Jizhi and boss Jia.
"This..." Tian Jizhi was stunned. He and boss Jia didn't discuss this problem. Naturally, he didn't know how many cassettes should be burned this time.
"Let's burn 50000 copies in Fusang first. It's safer!" Yamauchi said. For a brand-new game, the first batch of 50000 copies is already a high number.
"OK..." Tian Jiri Zhi was about to promise. Boss Jia quickly lowered his head and whispered a few words.
Tian Jizhi's expression suddenly became surprised. After looking at boss Jia and making sure he wasn't crazy, he hardened his head and said, "Mr. Yamauchi, we think 50000 copies may be a little less. The first batch of 1 million copies will be burned first, and then it will be increased later. How about it?"
