You promised it would be a free game, but now your screen is full of in-app purchase prompts?

When it comes to price, it doesn't matter how I negotiate.

Ultimately, the goal is to get a price that is acceptable to both parties.

As for the so-called "sixes bring good fortune," Chen Feng's insistence on such things was just an excuse that Sister Zhao made up.

Chen Feng didn't even know the proper procedure for worshipping gods, how to kneel, or how many incense sticks to offer.

This wave has also been forcibly labeled with tags like "letter".

"Should we take down 600 million along with Plants vs. Zombies?"

Park In-yong hesitated upon hearing this.

After all, before coming here, he only wanted to secure the agency rights for Dungeon Fighter Online.

He had heard of Plants vs. Zombies, and it was definitely a successful and good game.

However, the size of this game is not worth their coveting. Although it was a huge hit in the early stages, its development potential is far lower than that of Dungeon Fighter Online.

To put it bluntly, this game isn't particularly good at making money.

The biggest difference between it and Dungeon Fighter Online is that, with the same million players, Dungeon Fighter Online has 10,000 players who are willing to spend a lot of money and keep playing and spending money.

But Plants vs. Zombies is different. It has a huge number of players, including some who spend a lot of money, though not many.

The vast majority of players who make in-game purchases are first-time purchases or monthly cards.

This is due to the game mode; it doesn't mean that Plants vs. Zombies is a bad game.

However, upon closer reflection, spending an extra 200 million to acquire the game along with the game is actually not a bad choice.

No! It should be said that it cost an extra 100 million.

Because the woman on the other end of the line wouldn't agree to 400 million, 460 million should be Fengyun Games' bottom line.

"good!"

"We agreed to the deal: 600 million a year for two endorsements!"

In the end, Park In-yong agreed to the price.

Although everyone is trying to negotiate the price, they are top-tier companies after all, and they still have that much class.

There's no need to argue so fiercely over a few tens of millions; it's unnecessary.

"In that case, thank you, Mr. Park, and thank you, N Company. It's a pleasure working with you!"

Seeing that Park In-yong across from her had given in, Sister Zhao smiled kindly, then stood up and extended her right hand to him in a humble yet assertive manner.

The two shook hands briefly, signifying the conclusion of this collaboration.

After signing the contract, Fengyun Games will transfer the game data to N Company, and then they will build their own servers to operate the game.

However, the contract clearly states that there are restrictions on how this game data, including how Nexon uses it, can be used.

Furthermore, if game data is leaked from their possession, they will have to pay exorbitant penalties for breach of contract.

But in reality, this thing isn't that complicated.

With today's technology, cracking this thing isn't difficult; any company with a bit of capability could develop it.

But what good will it do to develop such a study?

Do you really think you can create your own Dungeon & Fighter server and compete with Fengyun Games for operation?

If you dare to do that, even if it's a small company, they can sue you until you're bruised and battered.

You're simply borrowing the model from Dungeon Fighter Online and creating a game called "Warriors of the Sky City".

Whether players will buy into it or not depends on how you operate it.

The biggest impact of the leaked source code isn't actually the fear that other game companies will use it to create games, since there is copyright protection.

What I fear most is the leak of information and the exploiters who create cheats.

That's really impossible to defend against.

Once the source code is leaked, Fengyun Games will have to spend at least one or two hundred million yuan more on anti-cheat measures, hiring various experts to work on anti-cheat measures.

Chen Feng is not only a game developer, but also a veteran gamer.

He has been secretly playing all the games he created.

Therefore, he was very aware of how harmful cheating software could be to a game...

Many games that were initially very popular suddenly died out, partly due to rampant cheating.

……

During this period, thanks to the popularity of Dungeon & Fighter, game companies all over the world are eager to get a piece of the pie.

So gradually, the game Dungeon & Fighter has various servers such as the Korean server, the Japanese server, the European server, the American server, and the Australian server.

Basically, servers in major regions were sold at different prices.

The agency fee is not entirely based on the value of the game, but also on the actual situation in the region where the game is distributed.

For example, if you have a large population, many wealthy people, and are located in a developed region, then your agency fees will naturally be higher.

Conversely, regional agencies like Southeast Asia have lower agency fees.

After some discussion, it was realized that Dungeon Fighter Online could make a lot of money not only through its own Chinese server operation.

Even selling the agency rights can generate over 2 billion to nearly 3 billion yuan a year, making it an extremely successful project.

After obtaining the game code, these locations quickly set up their own servers, preparing for the launch.

As for the changes to the game...

When you arrive at a place, you will naturally incorporate some local characteristics, but the main elements must remain unchanged.

……

In a live stream room named "DNF Lao Lin".

A man who looked to be around forty years old was excitedly and talking non-stop about the next version update.

"The main focus of next week's update will be the addition of two so-called ancient maps, the ability to craft Terrastone weapons, and the Screaming Jewelry."

"Then the Ancient Dungeon Mechanical Bull and the Howling Cave are both extremely difficult."

"In addition, a new Otherworld mode will be added, and three Otherworld maps will be released, making it a major update."

[Hahahaha! I've seen the appearance of those Terrastone weapons, especially the lightsaber for Sword Masters, it's so cool! Anyone who plays Sword Masters definitely needs to get one!]

The Screaming Jewelry also has strong stats, so you might consider crafting it.

[Actually, I think Terrastone weapons are a bit of a waste. Their stats are definitely better than ordinary level 50 purple gear, and better than most level 50 pink gear, but compared to weapons like the Rift Blade, Shadowless Sword, and Cross Slash Blade, they're still quite inferior. Plus, it takes so much time to craft them, so it feels a bit pointless.]

【？？？？？？？？？？】

"Useless? Wow, you really dare to say that!"

So you think you can afford a tradable pink-tier artifact like the Rift Blade, which costs tens of thousands of dollars, or that you're just lucky enough to get weapons like the Shadowless Sword or the Cross Slash Blade?

[I'm awesome! Brother Bao has been racking his brains every day to farm fatigue points in the Abyss for two months and still hasn't gotten a single SS weapon for his class. And you still want to get it?]

To put it simply, Terrastone weapons are the safest path the developers offer to all ordinary players. As long as you have the time and work your way up, you can also use very good weapons.

In fact, the stats of Terrastone weapons far surpass most level 50 pink weapons, only slightly inferior to certain pink and epic weapons.

If you have the money, you can directly buy special artifacts, or learn from the whales who grind the Abyss every day with full fatigue points, spending hundreds of dollars a day on Abyss tickets. If you can't even do that, then just honestly craft Terrastone weapons!
