Chapter 121 Acquisition of Luozhou

Fan Zhe acquired the "Luozhou Studio" and it was not just a thought.

On the same day, he contacted Ye Jiayi and asked about the feasibility of this matter.

Ye Jiayi has no interest in games, and she has never heard of this studio, and she does not know enough about it.

But after all, her professional qualities are placed here, and it didn't take long to get a lot of information about Luozhou Studio.

In fact, the overall experience of this studio is indeed very simple, and there is nothing particularly easy to investigate.

There are only five people in the entire studio. During the three years of production of "Taiwu Paintings", they didn't even have a salary. They made it purely by hobbies, let alone a stable office location.

In other words, before the production of "Taiwu Painting Scroll", Luozhou Studio was a small workshop formed by independent game enthusiasts.

This matter sounds very legendary, like the beginning of an online novel.

After the game was launched, it won the first place in the global hot-selling game market on Steam Platform; its sales exceeded 300,000 in the first week, and exceeded 400,000 in less than ten days...

Such sales have brought them nearly 20 million in revenue.

The success in sales not only made this game more popular, but also the value of "Luozhou Studio" itself has also risen.

Acquisition is not that easy.

Moreover, several main creators of "Luozhou Studio" themselves also have some resistance to being acquired by capital.

They have been together because of their interests and hobbies and like-mindedness. They have been working together for three years and have no salary. They have persisted for so long until the trial version is completed and released.

They were so tough when they were out of money. Now that they make money, they may even 'not bow down for money and make their favorite games'.

Of course, when you have no money, you can still hold your mind. There are also many people who are corrupted by money after you have money.

What kind of people are they? I don’t know yet.

But Ye Jiayi's investment department has already contacted the "Luozhou Studio".

After communicating with Fan Zhe, she probably got a clear idea.

It is probably not possible to acquire all cash directly; while it is difficult for others to accept it, Weidu Entertainment cannot pay so much money.

The more realistic plan is to adopt a cooperative acquisition.

Weidu Entertainment acquired the "Luozhou Studio" for a price of 10 million yuan; promised not to interfere with the development work of Luozhou Studio; all the benefits generated by the "Taiwu Painting Scroll" game are attributed to Luozhou Studio and distributed by them themselves, and Weidu Entertainment has no right to intervene; Weidu Entertainment has the right to issue game development needs to Luozhou Studio, and they have the right to refuse; Weidu Entertainment has the right to use the "Taiwu Painting Scroll" martial arts game work and its derivatives to carry out all publicity, adaptation, and operation...

In short, the details of this acquisition case can be summarized in two points: First, Luozhou Studio will have great autonomy in the future; second, all the benefits of the game "Taiwu Painting Scroll" will still belong to them.

What Fan Zhe wants is the first development team; the second is the copyright of "Taiwu Painting Scroll".

The former will bring the gene for game development to "Dimension Entertainment". The latter will add another step to the content library of "Dimension Entertainment".

Although the plot of "Taiwu Painting Scroll" is very simple in terms of the current game completion. However... there is another joke on the Internet: People call this game "Martial Arts Novel Generator".

In the whole world, thousands of NPCs are randomly generated, each NPC has an independent connection and will develop the plot story on its own.

"If you play this game, it's like reading... no, you're writing a martial arts novel."

This is the evaluation of a player on the Internet, and Fan Zhe deeply agrees with it.

In fact, the title bars of the game "Taiwu Painting Scroll" are almost becoming too "dirty" story.

Such a game has great potential in expanding content.

Acquisition of "Luozhou Studio" and completely including this game is quite valuable for Weidu Entertainment.

Of course, it must be admitted that "Taiwu Painting Scroll" is an indie game with a small size after all, and it is even in the beta version. It is not even an official version, and there is still a lot of content to be discovered.

But it is also because of this that if we can acquire a very talented team like "Luozhou Studio", coupled with Weidu Entertainment's technical capabilities in art and vision, it will be a big boom.

For "Luozhou Studio", with the strength of "Dimension Entertainment", they can easily expand the further content of "Taiwu Painting Scroll"; they can even let go of their imagination without being limited by development difficulties and development funds, and feel at ease and boldly play special effects, and develop a "Taiwu Painting Scroll 2" that is more perfect in terms of gameplay and expressiveness.

In fact, compared to money, this is what attracts them the most in negotiations.

It can maintain independence and the original intention of making games, and also receive nearly 10 million in cash. It also has a company with strong technical capabilities to support them and fully support them...

Under such temptation, Eggplant, the current leader of "Ruozhou Studio", was indeed moved.

Eggplant and Gao Yixiang are old friends. The relationship between them is not like the "super friends" of Fan Zhe and Gao Yixiang. It is really true and has similar ideas.

He went to consult Gao Yixiang, and Gao Yixiang gave him quite positive feedback.

After thinking about it, Eggplant discussed it with her companions and finally decided to accept the acquisition of "Weidu Entertainment".

Of course, those guarantees of independence that are verbally agreed must ultimately be implemented in the text.

‘Dimension Entertainment’ is very generous in this regard, and they will not do anything to do in this regard.

If it is just the development team of "Luozhou Studio" or not, it is up to be discussed whether it is worth ten million; but all subsequent copyrights of "Taiwu Painting Scroll" are now all belong to Dimension Entertainment, and this value itself is very great.

The acquisition case was quickly completed under the leadership of Ye Jiayi.

After completing the acquisition, the work on the work "Taiwu Painting Scroll" began.

The content of the work mainly focuses on two aspects.

One is the development of the game itself; the other is the development of the domestic market.

Let’s talk about the latter first, this is something that “Luozhou Studio” could not have been promoted before. All their energy is devoted to game development, so they have already tried their best. How can they still have the time to develop the market?

But now, "Weidu Entertainment" is a company with annual revenue of over 100 million yuan and expansion speed. Wu Jingtong's marketing department is fully capable of doing such work.
