Chapter 381 I, Old Xue, Am so Powerful!
Without even bothering to ask who the other party was, Lao Xue said without hesitation: "Let him go. I won't sell him."
After that, he was ready to rest.
Xiao Li nodded, and this answer was as expected, and replied: "Okay, I'll tell you right now. Damn my little life, I don't know what harm I want to do."
Lao Xue paused when he heard these words. He turned around in surprise and asked, "Little life? Isn't it a domestic manufacturer?"
"No, it's said to be a very wealthy Party A from Xiaoli."
When I was young, I was very rich.
These two words were connected together, and an idea came to my mind.
Isn't it Souni?
Lao Xue touched his chin and thought for a while.
The game industry over there is developing well in my childhood, and many of its manufacturers are world-famous.
However, with the rise of Naughty Cat, many manufacturers have been eclipsed.
Many manufacturers have also begun to cooperate with Naughty Cat, and there are many exclusive games on Switch.
In the honeymoon period, if you dare to do such dirty behavior so openly, you are not afraid that the naughty cat will find out.
Lao Xue could only think of one.
Soo Ni.
This is the enemy of Naughty Cat who wants the other to die quickly.
It doesn't hurt to know, since it's almost impossible to sit at the same table and collaborate.
So, are you here to spy on the enemy?
I quickly took out my phone and searched.
Recently, Soni was participating in a game exhibition in China.
There really is some management there.
The more I think about it, the more I think this conjecture is possible.
Thinking about it, Lao Xue stopped him and said, "Don't contact me yet. I'll call you back tomorrow."
Although Xiao Li didn't know what his boss had planned, he could only nod his head with a worried expression.
the next day.
Lin Mo saw this old friend in the office again.
He sighed and said, "I'm very busy, what do you have to do?"
Lao Xue said seriously: "We have found a buyer for that planning project."
Lin Mo nodded and continued to focus on the work in front of him. He said without raising his head: "Want to sell? Yes, you don't have to ask me. However, the things inside need to be changed, otherwise it will affect the new work."
The Last of Us is about to enter intense production.
Lin Mo is correcting some storyboarding issues in key plots.
Old Xue spread his hands and said: "I'm not that short of money, but I suspect the buyer is Souni. This is another problematic plan. I wonder if it can influence the other party's new work?"
As soon as these words came out, Lin Mo raised his head in surprise.
Whoa?
If you say that, I won't be sleepy anymore.
The whole world knows what Sooni's new work is, but no one knows about Naughty Cat's new work.
The industry now has a consensus.
Lin Mo's design level is the best in the world.
Referring to a deer as a horse, the industry really thinks it is a horse.
Misleading peers is second, but the key is.
This fits Lin Mo's bad taste.
"Okay, sell it. I'll reprint it for you, change the parts that may affect the new work, and then add some content. You can exchange the revised version for some pocket money."
"OK!"
Just do it.
I put down the half-busy work and started tinkering with the plan for Chapter 2 of The Last of Us.
Most game promotions have a logic.
It is necessary to let players know what is fun about the game and where is the most exciting part, but the most critical surprises must be hidden.
Through Souni's promotion, we can generally guess the plot direction of "Seven Days Later".
It can't be completely right, and it can be guessed at 60-70%.
Therefore, the revised version is based on the guessable parts without losing the shit-feeding taste of The Last of Us Chapter 2.
This modification work took two full days to be completed.
Everything is ready, let’s start taking action.
Although Lao Xue's assistant, Xiao Li, looked a little reluctant, he still reluctantly contacted the middleman.
Lao Xue's requirement is that he must meet the boss.
This request is a bit difficult, but it can be seen that the other party really cares about this "Naughty Cat New Work" plan.
Finally, he reluctantly agreed.
The meeting place was a small private room in a nicely decorated coffee shop.
When Lao Xue arrived, the other party was already here.
Pushing the door open, there were two people sitting inside.
They were all dressed in ordinary clothes, the younger one was wearing white jeans and a white T-shirt, and the older one was wearing ordinary dark blue sportswear.
As soon as they met, the older one stood up and chattered a lot.
The young man immediately translated: "This is the first time we meet. My name is Fujimoto Shu. Nice to meet you."
How happy are you?
As expected, the name Fujimotoshu was a pseudonym, and Lao Xue didn't care. After briefly introducing himself, the topic quickly got to the point.
Lao Xue took out a thick stack of printing paper from his backpack, casually opened a page and gestured.
The picture attached above is an original sketch of a zombie that has mutated into a humanoid form.
Seeing this original painting, you can clearly see that Fujimotoshu's eyes lit up and he seemed a little excited.
But Lao Xue only signaled for less than two seconds before closing it again and putting it back in his bag.
Lao Xue pretended to be money-loving and timid, and asked: "Which company are you from? Agree in advance that I can only show it to you and cannot take it away. Lin Mo trusts me because we are alumni. You can't betray him."
Fujimotoshu remained calm on the surface, but secretly he was already smiling.
What can't be betrayed?
The summary is three words.
Need to pay more.
As it happens, Souni is not short of money, at least not this amount.
He had a gut feeling that this deal could be done.
You can even spend a little more.
I never expected that Naughty Cat's new work would collide with the theme of "Seven Days Later"?
I don’t know if it’s intentional or not.
With the same theme, can "Seven Days Later" really compete?
uncertain.
But if there is this plan, that is not necessarily the case.
Fujimoto Shu likes a saying from Sun Tzu in The Art of War: Know yourself and your enemy and you will never be defeated in a hundred battles.
So he said with a sincere face: "I am an investor who wants to enter the gaming industry. I have been fascinated by Naughty Cat's works for a long time. I just want to use it as a reference for investment and learn from it."
"Really?" Lao Xue had a trace of doubt on his face.
"Yes, this involves a large investment, so I won't make it difficult for you." Fujimotoshu pretended to be considerate of the other party, "1 million, RMB."
After saying this, I originally thought that the deal had a 60% chance of being concluded, but now it is 7.5% likely.
Because he saw obvious movement and hesitation on Lao Xue's face.
After a few seconds.
"Okay. But you can only watch it here, you can't take it away, five minutes."
"OK."
Fujimotoshu felt happy.
This silly boy.
What a fool.
Lao Xue drove here, so naturally this transaction could not be transferred. The young translator went to withdraw the money, just like the flour transaction in the movie, he took a box of money and put it in the trunk.
Then he returned to the coffee shop and handed over the plan.
Fujimotoshu immediately looked at it hungrily.
The more I looked, the wider my eyes opened.
He even looked up at Lao Xue in surprise.
Look down again.
There was only one thought in my mind.
Am I the stupid boy?
How can there be such a detailed plan?
How can any planning project come with such a detailed script?
And is this story a little too bold?
It's like having bait prepared in advance and ready for fishing.
If that's really the case, it's a big loss.
While watching, I was thinking about the rationality of this, but before I could come to a conclusion, the planning project in front of me was suddenly snatched away.
Fujimotoshu raised his head with an angry look and was about to question when he first heard what Lao Xue said: "It's time, I'm leaving."
Time is up?
So fast!
Fujimotoshu quickly changed his face and said kindly: "Don't worry, please wait a moment for me to make a call. I'll come as soon as you go."
This call is an international long distance call.
If you have plans to see Naughty Cat's new work, you must report it to your leader, Makoto Ito.
After a long time, the call was connected.
"How's it going?"
"Here's the thing."
He told everything he saw and heard, but did not express his judgment for fear of affecting the other party.
Opposite me, Ito Makoto was also frowning in thought. After a long time, he replied: "I think it might be true."
"oh?"
"I asked many people. The reason why Naughty Cat is so efficient, in addition to the magic engine that is not like modern technology, is because of Lin Mo's plan. It is extremely detailed and precise, and there is no need for rework at all, just like the finished game has already been It’s the same in his mind.”
Fujimotoshu nodded and said: "So, maybe some of Lin Mo's genius designs are not understood yet, just like the original Black Soul?"
"Yes. It's a pity that although Lin Mo is a genius in making games, he doesn't seem to be good at dealing with people. He is still a greedy villain when such an important thing can be seen by his friends."
"But the other party only accepted to watch it live for five minutes. If you want to buy it, it will cost a lot."
"give him."
After the matter was approved by his immediate boss, Fujimotoshu felt confident.
Return to the cafe.
At this time, although the translator was dragging Lao Xue as much as possible, it could be seen that his face was full of anxiety and uneasiness, and he was sitting on pins and needles in the box.
Seeing this, Fujimotoshu became more and more certain that this kid might really be tricking Lin Mo to make money.
Thinking about it, he felt more confident, and there was a confident smile on his serious face.
"Mr. Xue, you know that I need to use it as a reference and to learn. How can I do it by just looking at it for five minutes?"
When Lao Xue heard this, he shook his head resolutely and said, "I won't sell it! Don't let me betray Lin Mo. This is impossible."
Fujimotoshu felt disdainful.
Isn’t this considered betrayal?
Okay, okay, not counting.
Forsake darkness and turn to light.
When the naughty cat is finished, you will have three successes.
"I'm not asking you to betray me. I'm really just learning. You're not afraid that I'll make a game based on this, right? Don't worry. If you copy it, I will be in countless troubles. Naughty Cat's legal department is very strong. ”
"No, no, this won't work either, me"
"Eight million."
Lao Xue was choked before he could finish his words.
His face turned blue and purple.
You can see the struggle on his face.
The more this happens, the more confident Fujimotoshu becomes.
Next, is the bargaining session, right?
Just when I thought of this, I heard a squeezing sound from between my teeth.
"Fifteen million."
Fujimotoshu couldn't help but raised the corners of his mouth slightly, and returned the price calmly.
"This price is too expensive for a study material. Eleven million."
Old Xue's Adam's apple moved up and down, and there were tiny beads of sweat on his forehead.
But he was defeated in the end.
"Okay, okay. But you must keep your promise, just learn. Also, I need to print a copy, I just borrow it to take a look, I will return the original copy."
"Don't worry, trust me."
It's done.
Silly boy.
How could it be just for reference at such an expensive price?
"Seven Days Later" is not yet completely finished.
This plan is very similar.
There are too many places that can be added and changed.
If Lin Mo sees the finished product of "Seven Days Later" at that time, what kind of shock will it be?
Will he be so angry that he will have a brain hemorrhage?
At that time, find trouble with your trusted friends.
The joy in his heart made Fujimoto Tree almost unable to suppress the arc of his mouth.
It took a while to complete the transaction, and then he rushed to the airport as if he had obtained a treasure and fled.
Run away, run away.
On the way to the airport.
Thinking about this matter, I couldn't help laughing out loud.
"Hahaha, idiot, what an incurable idiot. I didn't expect that attending an event would bring me unexpected surprises."
Thinking about it, he solemnly took out the plan from the box and read it carefully.
Thinking as he read it.
"This plot is really bold, worthy of Lin Mo."
"The structure of this part is a bit interesting, and it seems to be applicable to "Seven Days Later."
"But, why do I feel that the starting point of this story is a bit awkward? Some things are not explained very clearly?"
"What kind of special storytelling technique is this? It's worthy of Lin Mo! Fortunately, I got this."
It seems that he thought of the promotion and salary increase after making great contributions, thought of Playsquare returning to the king status, and thought of Naughty Cat's broken capital chain and unable to recover.
The smile became brighter and brighter.
At this time in the coffee shop, Lao Xue was still pretending to act.
After confirming that the other party had indeed left, he breathed a sigh of relief.
Grinning.
He picked up the coffee cup and drank the liquid in it, then let out a long sigh.
"Stupid, wait for bad luck! You're welcome, dear Souni. I'm just helping Mr. Lafayette get back some interest."
As he said this, he happily made a video call to Lin Mo.
"How is it, Xiaorizi is gone?"
"Gone." Old Xue proudly puffed up his chest, "You don't know, I, Old Xue, am so talented! My acting skills fooled those Xiaorizi so much that they lost their minds. I am really a good actor who was delayed by games!"
Lin Mo was also happy, and nodded with a smile: "Now you are a small rich man, prepare to treat us."
"It's a small matter. But, is the problem with this plan really that big?" Old Xue's expression became a little serious, "This is not a joke. The game you think is lame may have saved the life of other companies."
Lin Mo shook his head and said: "I am just an ordinary person, don't deify me. If Souni really dares to borrow, the myth of exclusive games will be shattered in the next game. "Seven Days Later" is the requiem of this generation of Playsquare!"
"If Souni fails at that time, how much credit will I have?"
"One third." (End of this chapter)
