 “Did Mickford come to our door? I didn’t even come to them, but they actually came to me on their own.”

 Zhu Youxing's expression was slightly strange.

But he reacted quickly.

 Obviously, the fact that the Mi Kefu platform is not online for the time being makes the other party very anxious.

Myron Keys looks down on video games on the one hand, but needs video games on the other. This guy is really a bit screwed up.

 But that’s okay, if the other party takes the initiative to come to the door, he has the initiative.

Nintendo’s headquarters in the United States is set up in Silicon Valley, just a few streets away from Mickford.

As soon as Zhuyouxing agreed, Myron Keith immediately arranged for people to go to negotiate, hoping to get a clear answer to Fortnite's launch.

Then several Mickford negotiators came to Nintendo's headquarters and wanted to have a good talk with the actual controller here, "Nintendo is the master of the world."

 …

At the Nintendo headquarters in the United States, several Mickford negotiators came here. They were planning to talk to Nintendo's CEO in person and wanted to put their games on the Mickford platform.

“I’m sorry, gentlemen, but our CEO has a lot of things to do right now, and his usual game development tasks are very heavy.”

 “The CEO is responsible for developing games?”

“Yes, we are still a small company after all, and our first game was tracked by the CEO throughout the entire process. This is the hard work of our CEO, so he probably doesn’t have time to meet with you.”

“Can you spare a little time? Believe me, the price we offer is definitely very favorable!”

"Feel sorry."

The secretary hired by Zhu Youxing had an apologetic look on his face and left without talking to the people in front of him.

 A few people looked at each other in confusion. They didn’t expect that they hadn’t even seen Nintendo’s face yet.

“What should I do? How should I report to my boss?”

“Let’s go back and talk about it first, report the matter to the boss, and then let the boss decide.”

They have completed their mission when they come here, and the rest depends on what the boss says.

So several people had no choice but to leave Nintendo headquarters in embarrassment, while Zhu Yuxing stood in front of the window on the third floor and watched several people leave.

A few employees want to talk to me, but they obviously still don’t take themselves seriously, and Myron Keyes is not sincere enough.

But it doesn't matter, he should be more sincere in a few days.

 At the Mickford headquarters, Myron Keys frowned when he heard the reports from several people.

The boss of Nintendo is not easy to deal with.

 He had the urge to find the Nintendo boss himself.

 But that would appear to be too condescending, and the momentum would immediately be weakened, which would also be detrimental to negotiations.

 He needs a high-quality game like Fortnite so that he can directly gain the support of a large number of players.

 But it’s not necessary. If you lower your style for this game, it’s not worth it.

 So he put the matter aside for the time being and planned to leave Nintendo alone to see how Nintendo would react.

Thinking this in his mind, Myron Keys opened Nintendo's official website at the same time, where there is Fortnite's real-time revenue data.

This revenue data is updated in real time on a daily basis, allowing people to more intuitively see how influential a game is.

Seeing that Nintendo can now almost earn about 10 million US dollars a day, he was extremely envious.

 Sixty percent of this revenue can be counted as profit, and this profit rate is simply scary.

 And his Mickford electronic product line only has a gross profit margin of about 30%.

Coupled with the strength of its competitor Facebook, Mickford’s annual profits are about three billion US dollars. It barely has a certain status, but most of it is taken away by Facebook.

This game is a money grab.

 Why didn’t his game department have such a profit margin?

If you can take 30% of it, you can earn hundreds of thousands of dollars for yourself in a day, and you can get 100 million in a year.

Youxing Electronic Entertainment also made a lot of money from this game, right?

 Forget it, out of sight.

He closed the official website data and concentrated on studying the latest hardware products released by his family.

However, he decided to take a closer look at Nintendo's revenue every day.

It is very convenient for Nintendo to update its revenue in real time. It makes its data completely public. This is probably a way to attract funds, and it is also a way for the boss to have confidence in its products.

Myron Keys still can’t understand how a game like this could be fun.

 In his eyes, the most fun thing is Tetris, which is also the game he dreams of most.

  But it’s a pity that this one belongs to a competitor.

 In a few days, Fortnite’s first season ends.

 In order to maintain the activity of the game, the game will re-update the season every once in a while.

But this is not simply about clearing the season players’ points and then replacing them with a new season.

Each season will have different new features, some new gameplay will be replaced, and some old gameplay will be temporarily offline.

Since the team had more free time after the game development was completed, Zhuyouxing simply arranged for them to maintain daily updates of the game while adding some regular shooting gameplay.

 A team of hundreds of people started fighting to the death.

Super power brawl begins.

The attack and defense battle of house construction and tower defense begins.

  In short, any gameplay that has been proven to be popular enough in shooting games can be done.

Then comes the core of the game, the new season of Battle Royale.

In the second season, the game added new gameplay of dimensional gate, and also added some storylines to Fortnite.

The volume of these updates is almost comparable to the scale of one or even two or three large games.

But because there is a mature system of Unreal Engine behind it, and Nintendo is not using the external Unreal Engine, but the Unreal Engine specially provided by Yuxing Electronic Entertainment, the performance effect is even stronger.

This game can even be optimized so low that computers from more than ten years ago can run it easily.

Employees working at Nintendo all have the same idea, that is, they obviously don’t work overtime much, but their efficiency is several times higher than that of other game companies.

Of course they themselves don’t know that Unreal Engine is responsible for this. They attribute it entirely to their boss, Mr. Nintendo.

Even though he was just an independent game producer before, he was unequivocal when it came to leading a team to develop games. He was as experienced as a top producer who has been in the industry for decades.

 With only a hundred people, we can create a hit game. Not everyone can do this.
