"Did Mickford come to my door? I didn't even come to them, but they actually came to me on their own."
Zhu Youxing's expression was slightly strange.
But he reacted quickly.
Obviously, the other party is very anxious because his side is temporarily not online on the Mickfu platform.
On the one hand, Myron Keys looks down on video games, but on the other hand, he needs video games. This guy is really a bit twisted.
But that's okay. If the other party takes the initiative to come to the door, he has the initiative.
Nintendo's headquarters in the United States is located in Silicon Valley, just a few blocks away from Mickford.
As soon as Zhuyouxing agreed, Myron Keith immediately arranged for someone to go to negotiate, hoping to get a clear answer to Fortnite's launch.
Then several Mickford negotiators came to Nintendo's headquarters and wanted to have a good talk with the actual controller here, "Nintendo is the master of the world."
…
In the United States, at Nintendo's headquarters, several Mickford negotiators came here. They were planning to talk to Nintendo's CEO in person and wanted to put their games on the Mickford platform.
"Sorry gentlemen, our CEO has a lot of things to do right now. His usual game development tasks are very heavy."
"The CEO is responsible for developing games?"
"Yes, we are still a small company after all, and our first game was tracked by the CEO throughout the entire process. This is our CEO's hard work, so he probably doesn't have time to meet with you."
"Can you spare even a little time? Believe me, the price we offer is definitely very favorable!"
"Feel sorry."
The secretary hired by Zhu Youxing looked apologetic and left without talking to the people in front of him.
Several people looked at each other in confusion. They didn't expect that they hadn't even seen Nintendo's face yet.
"What should I do? How should I report to my boss?"
"Let's go back and talk about it first. Report the matter to the boss and let him decide."
When they come here, they have completed their mission, and the rest depends on what the boss says.
So several people had no choice but to leave Nintendo headquarters in embarrassment, while Zhu Yuxing stood in front of the window on the third floor and watched them leave.
A few employees wanted to talk to him, but they obviously still didn't take him seriously, and Myron Keyes wasn't sincere enough.
But it doesn't matter, he will probably be more sincere in a few days.
At the Mickford headquarters, Myron Keys frowned when he heard the reports from several people.
This Nintendo boss is not easy to deal with.
He had the urge to find the Nintendo boss himself.
But in that case, it will appear that you are too humble and your momentum will immediately weaken, which will also be detrimental to negotiations.
He needs a high-quality game like Fortnite so that he can directly gain the support of a large number of players.
But it's not necessary. If you lower your style for this game, it's not worth it.
So he put this matter aside for the time being and planned to leave Nintendo alone to see how Nintendo would react.
I was thinking this, but at the same time Myron Keys opened Nintendo's official website, where there is Fortnite's real-time revenue data.
This revenue data is updated in real time on a daily basis, allowing people to more intuitively see how influential a game is.
He was extremely envious when he saw that Nintendo could almost make around 10 million US dollars a day.
Sixty percent of this revenue can be counted as profit, and this profit rate is simply terrifyingly high.
And his Mickford electronic product line only has a gross profit margin of about 30%.
Coupled with the strength of its competitor Facebook, Mickford's annual profits are about three billion US dollars. It barely has a certain status, but most of it is taken away by Facebook.
This game is simply a money grab.
Why didn’t his original game department have such profit margins?
If you can take 30% of it, you can earn hundreds of thousands of dollars a day, and you can get 100 million in a year.
Yuxing Electronic Entertainment also made a lot of money from this game, right?
Forget it, out of sight is out of mind.
He closed the official website data and concentrated on studying his latest hardware products.
However, he decided to take a closer look at Nintendo's revenue every day.
It is very convenient for Nintendo to update its revenue in real time. It makes its data completely public. This is probably a way to attract funds, and it is also a way for the boss to have confidence in its products.
Myron Keys still can't understand how a game like this can be fun.
In his eyes, the most fun thing is Tetris, which is also the game he dreams of most.
But unfortunately this one belongs to a competitor.
In a few days, Fortnite's first season ends.
In order to keep the game active, the game will update the season every once in a while.
But this is not simply about clearing the season player points and then replacing them with a new season.
Each season will have different new features, some new gameplay will be replaced, and some old gameplay will be temporarily offline.
Since the team had more free time after the game development was completed, Zhuyouxing simply arranged for them to maintain daily updates of the game while adding some regular shooting game gameplay.
A team of hundreds of people started fighting to the death.
Super power brawl begins.
The attack and defense battle of house construction and tower defense begins.
In short, any gameplay that has been proven to be popular enough in shooting games can be done.
Then comes the core of the game, the new season of Battle Royale.
In the second season, the game added new gameplay of dimensional gate, and also added some storylines to Fortnite.
The volume of these updates is almost comparable to the scale of one or even two or three large-scale games.
But because there is a mature system of Unreal Engine behind it, and Nintendo is not using the external Unreal Engine, but the Unreal Engine specially provided by Yuxing Electronic Entertainment, the performance effect is even stronger.
This game can even be optimized so low that it can run easily on computers from more than ten years ago.
Employees working at Nintendo all have the same idea, that is, they obviously don't work overtime much, but their efficiency is several times higher than that of other game companies.
Of course they themselves don’t know that Unreal Engine is responsible for this, and they attribute it entirely to their boss, Mr. Nintendo.
Although he was just an independent game producer before, he was unequivocal when it came to leading a team to develop games. He was as experienced as a top producer who has been in the industry for decades.
It only takes a hundred people to create a hit game, which is something not everyone can do.
