Otherworldly Architect

"You don't have to make a decision in such a hurry." Xia Cheng said, "The offer I gave can be guaranteed to be fully effective within three years."

Ming Yan raised his eyebrows.

Xia Cheng showed his true sincerity.

This offer is a clear retreat. If he doesn't have the determination to win, or in case his next attempt fails, at least he can fall back to the IPP for a decent job.

If it is not really optimistic about Ming Yan, no one will offer such generous conditions.

Ming Yan did not continue to think about it, but said, "Maybe there will be a chance in the future."

The topic was brought to an end.

Xia Cheng smiled, with a natural self-confidence, but not aggressive.

The solicitation was unsuccessful, and the two then went about their business and talked about the contract for "Minecraft" to log on to the Aijia platform.

Sincerity belongs to sincerity, interest belongs to interest.

General Manager Xia was still very professional when he bargained, and he pointed out the shortcomings of the game's profitability.

Mingyan fought with him for two rounds, and the two sides were evenly matched. They negotiated the draw between 12% and 13%, and wanted to continue talking about the matter behind the decimal point.

Ming Yan's eyes stopped on Xia Cheng's young and arrogant face, and he suddenly had an idea and said, "Mr. Xia should be from a big family. I didn't expect that even trivial matters would be as fussy as poor peasants like us."

Xia Cheng's brows furrowed invisibly.

A gentleman like this never bargains when buying things, and sometimes doesn't read the price tag at all. After the outrageous emotions come up, they will unconsciously start to resist the tug-of-war between mother-in-law and mother-in-law.

The assets that one percentage point can represent may only be a drop in the bucket for them, and there is no need to waste their precious time.

Thinking of this, Xia Cheng said, "Forget it, 12%."

As a result, when everything was settled and he made it clear that he was about to leave, Xia Cheng seemed to suddenly react again.

- He was put together, and his character flaws were taken advantage of!

- What Ming Yan said is not the same thing as business negotiation. The 1% Xia Cheng was given to Ming Yan for nothing.

Xia Cheng's mouth pursed angrily, but he politely got up and sent Ming Yan away.

Seeing his expression, Mingyan couldn't help but be amused: Xia Cheng had a serious expression, but a small dimple was slightly recessed on his stretched left face.

Others show their dimples when they laugh, why is this person showing their dimples when they are angry?

This is too special.

Ming Yan was in a very happy mood, and before leaving, he noticed that there was a small cabinet in the office.

There are some trophies in the cabinet, and in the middle is a trophy for the third runner-up of the Survival Club.

Ming Yan thought about it, the trophy in the middle must be the most proud, it seems that this noble boy is a lover of survival in the wild.

"I can't see that Mr. Xia still likes to survive in the wild?" Ming Yan comforted him politely, "It's really both civil and military."

Ming Yan said in his heart: After bullying others and taking advantage of them, you have to be sweeter.

Xia Cheng smiled and said, "Next time at the club, I invite you to join us."

Clearly said: "No, I-"

"Ming designer doesn't need to be polite to someone who cares about me, otherwise I will be angry because of trivial matters." Xia Cheng said, "There will be a chance next month, I will treat you well, please rest assured. "

Clearly: "…"

Hey, kinda vengeful.

In any case, this cooperation was negotiated like this.

Twenty days later, "Minecraft" will be officially launched on the IPP platform after the exclusive launch period of Feiyang ends.

With Xia Cheng's optimism and escort, there is basically no need to worry about the resources that should be available.

In addition, when Mingyan left the Aijia branch, the other party also attached a gift, saying it was a "signature fee".

It is very comfortable for a big company to do things. Ming Yan opened the gift and saw that it was an electronic pen made by an in-house company.

The cap is golden, reminiscent of Young Master Xia's lion-like curly hair.

The aftermath of this incident is not over yet, and after about a few days, the news spread out from nowhere.

The Atlas platform learned about the signing of "Minecraft" with the IPP platform, and finally couldn't sit still, and came to the grass.

A new manager came back, and he came up and said to Ming Yan: "Designer Ming, I'm very sorry, the temporary staff who contacted you last time did not have a good attitude, which caused some minor unhappiness. On behalf of Atlas, I apologize to you first. , please forgive his offense."

Ming Yan smiled: "It's okay, haha."

Since ancient times, those who have made mistakes are temporary workers, and it seems that they have not evolved in the interstellar age.

After apologizing, the manager of family A got to the point: he offered 15%.

It was at the time when "Minecraft" had not been officially launched, nor had it announced that it had won the championship, that he made an offer to the A family.

Now that the feng shui turns, the other party starts to come back cautiously, please make it clear.

It was too much to say clearly, saying: "That was the price at the time, and it's not that cheap now."

"...So what is your psychological price now?"

Ming Yan lion opened his mouth and said, "10%. By the way, my contract with Aijia is 12%."

"...Are you sure?"

"Sure." Ming Yan said, "If you are in the market, you should understand the importance of timeliness. If you miss the best opportunity, the second batch of speculators who enter the market will not be able to eat meat."

This time it was quiet for a long time, and the other party said, "Sorry, this is beyond my authority. We need to think about it for a few days and reply to you later."

This "later" is directly later to thirty days later.

Family A must have been very angry, and felt that Ming Yan was unreasonable, so they never replied.

Since then, Feiyang's exclusive first release period officially ended ten days ago, and the official version of "Minecraft" has blossomed everywhere on various platforms.

The most important of these is the IPP platform.

Based on the coverage of the IPP platform, this time, it is not the passers-by fans of "Minecraft" that are used as traffic, but the hundreds of millions of users from the sixth star province on the IPP directly poured in.

How scary is that?

Almost from a small faucet, it turned into Niagara Falls, which was called a flying stream that went down three thousand feet, suspected to be the Milky Way falling for nine days.

IPP just gave a special recommendation of "new work every week" in the middle, which requires two-layer page jumps, which diverts more than 4 billion UVs.

That is to say, in about ten days, more than four billion people have seen at least the words "Minecraft" and the main page of the game.

Mingyan squatted at home to scan the data that day, and it took a long time to come back to his senses.

In the face of the huge data that can't be seen, most people don't even have a concept in their hearts.

More than 4 billion was half of the total population of Blue Star in its heyday, an order of magnitude that could completely devour a planet's resources within a few hundred years.

The number of downloads and trials soon reached one billion, of which about 30% chose to pay.

Perhaps the interstellar people of the Chaoyang Alliance have been playing real and explosive "games" for many years, which has caused them to be less interested in the cute-looking style of painting.

These players looked at the screenshots, skipped it and didn't play - because there are tens of millions of games waiting for them on the IPP platform.

But this is the case, and the remaining players still contributed a gold ore vein to the game makers.

—720 million.

This is the number that finally appeared on Bluestar Studios' books.

Player comments have exploded. Ming Yan glanced at the "999999+" comment area and felt dizzy.

The self-media content of these players will soon attract new traffic, bring more customers to Minecraft, and then start the next virtuous cycle.

Ming Yan's account "Tiny Work" was also completely blocked!

Frightened, he hurriedly turned on the brain filter system, and completely blocked those relatively watery comments and retweets, otherwise his poor little terminal that he bought for several thousand dollars would soon burn.

Among these comments, there are pure players who are blowing the architect's rainbow farts in a thousand and eighty ways;

There are small platforms that have never heard of their names seeking cooperation;

There are mysterious people who claim to be Ming Yan's relatives/schoolmates/young friends, etc. to make friends;

There are even several local TV stations wanting to interview Mingyan...

The title is: Talented Freshmen? A rising star in the game architecture industry? A miracle held by a billion players!

Clearly: "…"

It's so shameful. It is said that the interstellar people of Western descent are generally enthusiastic and exaggerated, which is really overwhelming.

Ming Yan was very moved, and then rejected them.

A fresh student made a best-selling blockbuster all over the star province, and earned an amount of money that ordinary people would never see in a lifetime. What should he do next?

Ming Yan flipped through his schedule.

The first thing: 720 million book funds, if donated to the charitable purpose of the Blue Star Research Institute, you can go through tax-free channels.

The remaining 1% is my own bonus. After deducting personal income tax, there is almost five million left, which can be deposited into my personal account before the 10th of next month.

The second thing, the plan for the next game clearly states that the outline has been completed, and it is necessary to start looking for an artist who can assist him in the initial production.

"Minecraft" can be said to be pixel-style, and he can barely draw a sticker by relying on his high school art literacy.

But in this new game, picture performance, music sound effects, and interface interaction are all crucial factors, and it is definitely not something that one person can do casually.

Well, wait a minute, maybe he can give it a shot in terms of music.

Mingyan still remembers many well-known masterpieces at home and abroad. Although it is impossible to memorize the entire score, if the chorus part can be remembered, the rest of the content can be outsourced to some music studios to improve.

Anyway...he's rich now! rich! rich!

The third thing, the calendar also circled tomorrow's date.

Time flies so fast, Ming Yan has been busy writing new game plans recently.

Unexpectedly, it was time for the whole class to gather together for the last meal.
