"Any content published on the phc platform will require a commission of 33.3%?"
"This is robbery!"
"I disagree, Capcom will not accept such a harsh request!"
“I can’t even accept 2k!”
In the conference hall, more than 20 big names from global third-party game developers were indignant and dissatisfied. Everyone who spoke English and Japanese expressed their anger.
As soon as Ye Hua said those words, everyone present knew his intention. This was to imitate Apple's app-store and provide third-party application platform services to PHC users. This not only controls the power of life and death of the third party
, you also have to pay apple tax, which is equivalent to PHC tax here on the coastline.
Apple's commission is only 30%, and Ye Hua's commission is even more excessive, 33.3%.
The third-party game developers here will definitely not be able to bear it. Coastline Company does nothing but exploits nearly one-third of everyone's income. The price of entering the PHC platform is too high.
At this time, the president of Activision Blizzard saw that Ye Hua was unmoved and said: "Mr. Ye, we admit that your company's PHC host is an epoch-making emerging electronic technology product, but in the IT world, no matter how good the hardware is, there is no software.
Content is in vain, if we don’t have third parties to provide content, what’s the point of users buying PHC?”
Everyone immediately agreed and seemed to be hugging each other for warmth.
Ye Hua curled his lips and shrugged with a slight smile. He looked around the crowd and said, "I think you have misunderstood a concept. PHC is not a sales platform for personal game consoles, but a personal holographic computer. Today I have brought you all together to discuss
What is important is how to make the market bigger and stronger. The bigger the PHC platform is, the third parties here can make big money."
"I also want to correct Mr. Ye. The expansion of the PHC market does not mean a new market for third-party game developers around the world. The expansion of the PHC market squeezes the PC market and the console market. In this regard,
The other is ebbing and flowing. For the third party, it is nothing more than transferring money from the left hand to the right, but your company has to steal one-third of the share in the process, and the third party has lost its fundamental interests."
Capcom's North American President Steven Swinson said this, and as soon as he finished speaking, he was greeted by many echoes.
"Besides, we still don't know how much it will cost to develop a PHC version of the game, and the market is unclear. As far as I know, PHC is definitely not cheap. Its sales volume directly determines the size of the entire market. It is destined to be a small market in the short term."
The vice president of Ubisoft also added.
Obviously, the third parties present are extremely resistant to this so-called "33.3% PHC tax", and they are all confident. The third party's confidence is that you can't play without my content.
"That's why you are here. The purpose of bringing you all together is to make the overall market bigger and make this cake bigger." Ye Hua said with a slightly longer voice.
"Why? Why do you want us to help you expand the market, and then have to accept a 33.3% commission in the end?" said a Japanese person present. It was not polite.
Hearing this, Ye Hua immediately stared at him and said concisely: "Just because PHC is the future!"
After looking away from the other party, Ye Hua looked around at the crowd again and said calmly: "PHC's potential is greater than me and everyone here can predict. Its imagination space is unimaginable."
"I'm sorry Mr. Ye, Capcom cannot accept a commission of 33.3%, unless it is 3.3%." Capcom's general name, Swinson, said still forcefully.
Ye Hua was amused when he said this, and everyone saw him laughing as he took continuous photos of the conference table without caring about his image. This behavior made the big bosses present feel indifferent and angry, and Ye Hua suddenly looked at him and said: "
3.3%? Brother, are you sending beggars away?"
Everyone looked at each other, but no one answered immediately. At this moment, Ye Hua gave them an extremely unruly feeling. It was impossible not to be angry, but it was not easy to lose his temper. After all, Coastline Company had
Crazy capital, shopping malls are cruel, and everyone has experienced strong winds and waves, so naturally they will not be affected by such sensory emotions.
Ye Hua calmed down his expression, leaned back against the chair where he was sitting, picked up the water glass and took a sip of water, then stared at the glass and said with a serious smile: "If you don't embrace future changes and don't follow the trend of the times, I believe that within three years,
You will surely cry to heaven and earth."
As soon as these words came out, there were a few boos. I don't know who was booing, but it didn't matter.
Ye Hua raised his eyes and looked around at everyone, and saw several pairs of disdainful eyes.
"Yes, that's right. The bigger the PHC market will be, it will inevitably squeeze the host market and PC market. The third parties here have not gained a brand new market. But what I want to say is that what you must understand is that the third party pays 33.3
% of the commission price, in exchange for the future." Ye Hua said, his expression also calm.
He added: "Game content is only a small part of the content carried by PHC. PHC will not be able to play without third-party game content. In five, ten, fifteen years, PHC will eventually replace PC and become the next generation of the world."
With the new trend of electronic products, the PC game developers present will be the first to die without PC, and those who rely on console platforms are also prepared to live a hard life."
"Integrating game content is only one part of the coastline ecosystem. The lack of this link does not mean that the ecosystem cannot circulate. The future of phc may be bumpy, but it is the future after all, but third parties do not have the phc platform.
, what should you do in the future? Huh?"
At this moment, everyone shut up and didn't dare to answer the question. Even Capcom North America President Steven Snow, who had just made a strong move, was immediately scared. When he was experiencing the unofficial version of phc, he was still thinking
How should the "Resident Evil" series unfold under the PHC version?
For third-party game developers, players are God, but the platform is God’s guide. Without a platform to publish games, how can we meet God?
Seeing that no one spoke, Ye Hua said again: "If you want to board the ship to the future, you have to pay the ticket. 33.3% refuse to bargain."
The group of old men present here are holding back a disturbing feeling in their hearts, but they still dare to be angry and dare not speak out. In fact, they are not that old, most of them are in their forties or fifties, but they are indeed old men compared to Ye Hua.
.
Being suppressed by such a junior and not daring to speak loudly would make anyone else upset.
At this time, Ye Hua tilted his head slightly and gave his assistant Qiao Wei a look. The latter understood what he meant and nodded, and after a while he took out a thick stack of documents.
Placed in front of Ye Hua, the latter patted the document with his big hand and said: "The ticket is here. Those who are interested can pick it up. Those who are not interested are welcome to leave. After signing the agreement, you can get the open source engine information immediately.
, we are preparing to produce the PHC version of the game content. As for the PHC production cost that you are worried about, I can give you a clear answer. It will not be higher than your current game production cost. The future is here, and the rest is decided."
"I have to meet with the boss of Intel and say goodbye."
After saying that, Ye Hua stood up and left the conference hall first, leaving a group of senior third-party game developers looking at each other, caught off guard. They looked at the stack of agreement documents on the table where Ye Hua was, and were in a dilemma for a while.
