game development savior

Chapter 74

Holding Han Qi's quotation in his hand, Li Smith showed a playful smile after thinking for a long time.

"This game designer Han Qi, I know a little bit about his games, they are indeed very interesting and thoughtful."

"Although I am not a professional gamer, but according to the evaluation of my related friends."

"This game designer, if the future develops smoothly, he can create tens of billions of games."

"His offer, 20 billion in cash, will be paid in three installments."

"Then make a PNPD agent game for us, and the game will promote it for us."

"And all the revenue generated by the game will belong to our PNPD."

"Or in more common terms: PNPD hired Han Qi to make a game."

"And the reward for hiring Han Qi is to let him buy a floating fortress in the sky at a preferential price of 20 billion."

Let his cousin Li Honghao also read the quotation.

Lee Smith asked: "How? Do you think Han Qi's offer is sincere?"

Li Honghao thought for a while and said, "I don't feel that sincerity is too high, or is this Han Qi thinking too highly of himself?"

"The fixed quotation of 20 billion yuan is indeed barely enough to make the cost of the Sky Fortress back."

"But from design to completion, it took so much time and effort to create such a cutting-edge product."

"You can't just try to get your money back, can you?"

"If you want to make money, you have to see how much income the games Hanqi gives us can generate."

"As far as I know, the revenue of "Age of Empires" exceeded 3 million in the first week, and the sales peak will continue for several weeks."

"Counting the game sales revenue, it can basically meet the profit requirements."

"The key to the specific sales of this game depends on the market!"

"It's not that "Age of Empires" is a success, but his PNPD agent-themed game will definitely be a success."

"All the game revenue belongs to us? This is a blank check!"

"Perhaps the cashing of this empty check may not be low, but it is always a empty check..."

"Using 20 billion in cash, plus the empty check of a game revenue, do you want to win Sky Fortress?"

"Moreover, the development cost of this detective-themed game is estimated to be 3-5 million, and we PNPD should bear it?"

"This... I said with restraint: it's hard for me to earn money."

"Brother, what do you think?"

Li Smith nodded first, and then said emphatically: "Your analysis is correct."

"Judging from the quotation, this is not a huge quotation, 20 billion in cash, plus the income of a game."

"If you look at it according to the standards of the Age of Empires, the total price of 40 billion is probably the best?"

"Selling Sky Fortress for 40 billion can only be said to be the lowest acceptable price."

"What's more, 40 billion of the 20 billion is just a so-called 'empty check'."

"If I agree to this offer, there is a high probability that I will be questioned by the board of directors."

"But young man, you overlooked one point."

"Perhaps when you are young, you have no concept."

"And we, the older generation, value one thing very much."

"I guess, Han Qi also dared to use a bad check as a means of payment because he knew what we valued."

"This item is very worthless in this day and age."

"It's easy to be ridiculed if you say it out."

"But in fact, this thing is the foundation for our PNPD to live and work."

"There's something in us that can be lost."

"But our surface must insist on something like this."

Standing up, opening the window, pointing outside to the crowd of protesters gathered downstairs.

"In Vermillion Bird City, we are gradually losing such things, and the citizens are already dissatisfied."

"If this voice of dissatisfaction continues, we may be replaced—you know, there are more than one security group that are eyeing the fat piece of Suzaku City."

As the general manager of PNPD, Li Honghao is only in his early 30s.

On the outside, Li Smith, who is not a few years older than Li Honghao, is actually over 60 years old.

There is a generation gap between these two cousins.

So in his mouth, something very important.

Li Honghao, who has been the general manager for less than a year, has no idea at all.

The curious Li Honghao asked: "Brother, what exactly is this thing?"

"What is so important that Han Qi dares to use it as an offer?"

Lee Smith looked at the crowd outside and replied: "That kind of thing is the honor of the detective and the trust of the people."

"PNPD is a profit-oriented company."

"But our special nature means that we cannot completely abandon the traditions of the old-time agents."

Li Honghao suddenly realized: "It is indeed the case. When we recruit new agents every year, we will also tell them about the glories of those illusory agents."

"If the detectives don't have a sense of justice, don't pay attention to honor, and just clock in for work."

"Then our service quality may be difficult to improve."

Lee Smith continued: "The ideal PNPD should be a company full of glory, a company that newcomers yearn for and citizens are satisfied with."

"And now, PNPD is gradually losing that."

"It's dangerous."

"If PNPD is no longer full of glory, it will be difficult for newly recruited agents to become excellent agents, and the quality of service will inevitably decline."

“The quality of service has declined.”

"The dissatisfaction of the citizens will increase."

"They're going to protest like they're doing now."

"Questioning where taxpayers' money is being spent."

"And our rival companies will join forces with their politicians to attack us!"

"You know, it's the next contract renewal period."

"It's not far away"

"If left unchecked, there are so many protests out there."

"Continue to discredit the PNPD."

"Although other companies are worse, it is hard to say whether citizens and politicians will plan to change to another company."

"On the contrary."

"If we, PNPD, can have a team of detectives full of honor and the atmosphere of the old times"

"Then, we can continue to recruit more young agents with dreams and aspirations."

"With the detective resources at hand, we can securely win the contract extension of Suzaku City."

"Even, it can be expanded to other super cities!"

Li Honghao asked: "Brother, you said that Han Qi's offer may help us regain some lost glory."

"But with a detective-themed game, can it really be done?"

"I admit that the sense of pride of the agents recruited by the PNPD has been declining recently."

"The dissatisfaction of the citizens is also increasing day by day."

"But I don't know, can a game reverse the situation?"
