Lin Keqing took a call and walked out. Five minutes later, she came back.
"Captain, Blizzard Entertainment is looking for you. They want to talk about cooperation with World of Warcraft!"
"Wow, a gold mine game!" Zhang Xiaoyuan was so excited that he almost jumped up!
He called, which meant that he wanted cooperation more than Soft cloud!
Fang Tian chuckled. "It's good for us!"
Lin Keqing looked at her watch. "Moyes said we'll meet at the Garden Hotel at 3 PM."
Miracle MU had defeated the Legend of Mir, and YY Gaming Platform had defeated Ocean waves. According to the previous agreement, Soft cloud would be the agent of World of Warcraft.
Of course, they had to meet to discuss the details.
With Fang Tian's ambition, not only did he want the agent, but he also wanted a bigger share of the profits.
3 PM was a good time for afternoon tea.
Fang Tian arrived at the Garden Hotel on time. He was talking and laughing with the beauty beside him. He seemed to be in a good mood!
"Captain, how much profit do you want?" Lin Keqing was wearing a white knee-length dress with a Hermes scarf around her neck. She looked very fashionable and beautiful.
With a beauty at the table, the negotiation should go more smoothly.
"I don't know." Fang Tian shook his head. "I'll try my best."
Room 301.
As soon as he walked in, a red-haired white man walked over with a smile and shook Fang Tian's hand. "Mr. King, we meet again!"
"Hello, Moyes!" Fang Tian shook hands with him.
This red-haired foreign man was the vice president of Blizzard Entertainment. He came to Huaxia to talk about the agent of World of Warcraft.
His natural red hair was very impressive.
There was a glass table near the window. Sunlight shone in, making the room very bright.
Moyes gestured for them to sit down. Then, he sat down.
Fang Tian and Lin Keqing sat opposite him.
Moyes told the waiter, "Bring coffee to this gentleman and this beautiful lady."
"No." Fang Tian waved his hand. "Chinese people like to have afternoon tea at this time. Just give me a cup of black tea."
"Give me a cup of black tea too," Lin Keqing said.
"Alright then. When in Rome, do as the Romans do. Give me a cup of black tea as well," Moyes said with a smile as he poured the coffee away.
Fang Tian smiled and said, "Many foreign internet products have failed to achieve success in China? ICQ entered Huaxia and was defeated. Yahoo entered Huaxia and was defeated. There's also Google and so much more … "
"The products of these big companies perform very well in other countries, but they fail in China. You know why? "
Moyes said, "In the words of your Huaxia people, it's not acclimatizing."
"That's right." Fang Tian snapped his fingers. "To put it bluntly, they're not localized enough to provide us with intimate services. Let's take a small 'weather' software as an example. Other than the weather forecast, the software made by us Chinese can provide more detailed reminders, such as if today is a suitable day for car washing, outdoor sports, etc. This is something that you will not be able to achieve. "
Moyes smiled and nodded, "That's right. That's why Blizzard Entertainment is eager to cooperate with a capable Chinese company to provide more localized services.
Fang Tian smiled. "Soft cloud is the best choice for World of Warcraft to achieve great success in China."
"Here's your tea." The waiter walked over and placed three cups of black tea in front of the three.
Moyes picked up the teacup. "It's been a while. I didn't expect you to defeat Ocean waves. According to our agreement, you're the agent for World of Warcraft. "
He turned his head and asked his assistant to hand him the contract.
"The contract is ready. You just need to sign it." Moyes handed the contract to him.
Fang Tian looked at it briefly and said, "The ratio of 7 to 3 is too unreasonable. I think it needs to be changed."
Moyes froze for a moment before he smiled and said, "7/3 is very reasonable. After all, World of Warcraft is a very popular game. 30% of the profit is also an astronomical figure."
Fang Tian put down the contract and took a sip of tea. "As I said before, American products can be confiscated in other countries, but they will fail in China. It's still unknown whether World of Warcraft can succeed in China. "
"No." Moyes shook his head and said affirmatively, "Games have no borders. As long as it's fun, it will be popular in any country."
"Is that so?" Fang Tian chuckled. "The game of Three Kingdoms is popular in our country. Can it be popular in the US?"
Huh? Moyes was speechless.
"The Chinese market is very special. No one can guarantee that any product will be popular in China, "Fang Tian said." 30% of the profit is too low. You know, my company will need to invest a lot of manpower and resources to operate World of Warcraft. It's a huge investment. Without enough profit, it's meaningless to act as the agent of this game. "
Didn't he say so much just to get more profit?
Moyes said softly, "World of Warcraft will do well in China. If it causes your company to lose money, Blizzard Entertainment is willing to compensate you."
"Even if it doesn't lose money, how much profit can it bring to my company with such a low profit?" Fang Tian said, "Now that the YY game client is successful, the company is also developing a large-scale game. That is to say, my company doesn't need World of Warcraft. I'm not interested in it if there's no profit. "
7 to 3 might be attractive to a small company, but it wasn't attractive to Soft cloud at all.
70% of the profit was taken by the Americans. Fang Tian was very unhappy.
He knew that Soft cloud was very powerful now. If a small company dared to bargain like this, Moyes would have left long ago.
"Blizzard Entertainment has invested a lot of money in developing World of Warcraft. Even if we deduct the cost, we won't make much profit. "He looked very embarrassed.
Players of World of Warcraft are all over the world. How dare you say that they won't make much profit?
Fang Tian laughed. "Mr. Moyes, who would believe that your game won't make much profit if it's released all over the world?"
Moyes still looked embarrassed. "The profit ratio has been set long ago. It can't be higher."
Fang Tian said, "Soft cloud has countless platforms and channels now. YY game has gathered the most players in the country. If you let us operate World of Warcraft, your game will soon have hundreds of millions of players! We've provided so many platforms and channels. It's reasonable for us to make more profit, right? "
