Genius Wan
Decision Making
After hearing Agung recount the events that occurred in the last 5 days. Iwan scrunched his forehead. He knew that Dominoz Game Studio is the largest game studio in Indonesia today, he had thought before that there would be a time when his game studio would be noticed by others. Coupled with expert Frank Zilora's previous high-scoring shows that the games his studio makes are potentially high-potential. This will make the competitors will ketar ketir and will not stay silent, will certainly try to seize this gold field.
But what he did not expect was that the incident would be this fast. Iwan was silent for a while then calmed Agung down.
"Look easy, after all, they can only threaten you, just calm nonsense," said Iwan patted Agung's shoulder.
"But boss, if that's all I won't think about, the next day after the man who claimed to be from Dominoz Game Studio came here, they launched a game similar to Flappy Bird on the Facebook app and on their site. Not only that boss, they also make a competition for who gets the highest score - his high with a total prize of Rp25,000,000,-! It doesn't have much of an impact on our players, but for me monitoring the servers behind Flappy Bird, it's clear that our active user graph has been declining for the past few days. Although now the number of active players we are still a lot, we can be sure 2 months more active users we only have half the number of users now" said Agung with your anxiety.
Iwan was surprised by this news, because he did not expect that Dominoz Game Studio was very aggressive in capturing his gold mine. Iwan has several options that can be done now.
The first option is that he can pit Flappy Bird with Dominoz Game Studio's Facebook game by creating a prize contest like Dominoz Game Studio did. However, Iwan knew this would be a waste of money for free without bringing significant profits, true he can overcome the decline of Flappy Bird game players but fear after the event contest ends then the user will be reduced drastically if not hold the next contest, the next competition, worried that the players become dependent on the reason for the competition to play the game if there is no yasudah no longer need to play. It should be understood that this Flappy Bird game is not a game that people will continue to play, Iwan himself predicts that in 4 months this Flappy Bird game will be abandoned by its players.
The second option, Iwan made a different hit game from Flappy Bird, but Iwan only had a few months before the natural disaster would occur. If he has more time he will not think about making a comedy film that he has planned before.
The latter option was to let Dominoz Game Studio and Iwan focus on making his film. With Iwan just let Dominoz Game Studio later a game like Flappy Bird will also run out of its viral period.
Actually there are 1 more option, but it is very impossible to do that is to make a new game while making a movie done together. But with 1 billion funds alone fear it will not be enough, rather than failing two - two better focus first with one goal.
If he is reckless and executes both plans simultaneously, when the funds he has are exhausted then there will be delayed completion of both plans. Making a game or film is not like building a building, if he makes a building as many as 4 units and stops in the middle of the road, at least he can rent or sell 2 units that have been completed. But for a new movie and game completed some of it will not be possible to sell the game or show the unfinished film. Iwan pondered over which choice he should make.
"Mas Agung, how many advertising slots have been sold?," asked Iwan
"All 20 ad slots have been sold boss! funds USD $90.000 has been entered into the company account. After paying taxes, the funds in the account now amounted to Rp1,060,000,000,-!," said Agung with a proud face, because he became one of the team making this popular game.
"Good, just so the Dominoz Game Studio makes a contest or whatever it is, we do not need to take any action. Still have to take care of Flappy Bird servers well. 6 months ahead just close the server. For apps that have been uploaded on the App Store, just let it remain free without ads after 6 months later, we move on to create a new game after Flappy Bird is done," Iwan said
"Now, for now, I want to make a film with funds earned from advertising revenue Flappy Bird," said Iwan shook his head then he sat on the chair because from he came to hear all the Great complaints he just stood up.
"The film? Seriously boss want to make a movie?" said Agung surprised to hear Iwan's plan as if changing the direction from game to film
"It's a movie, so maybe until the movie is in theaters, I won't be here first" Iwan said
"Good boss! mmm..," said Agung who like to talk about something.
"Why Great? say if anyone wants to be talked about, do not be stiff," said Iwan
"So gini boss, right I denger boss want to make a film, happens to be one of my cousins have a production house. He made a production house with his friends last year when he graduated from college. They made a film to join the film festival in hopes of entering the top 3. But what's the power, in fact they were just amateur filmmakers. 2 months ago when I was working at the company before, my cousin came home and told me about his pain. His production house and his friends were abandoned with complete film equipment. Even though all of his crew were friends of my cousins and they were still on the payroll, but with no bonuses most of them were already working elsewhere. If the boss is willing, I can contact my cousin for cooperation," said Agung with embarrassment - embarrassed to say about his cousin's production house.
Iwan was very interested in the Supreme offer. It just so happened that he was looking for a production house that was not making a film, and even got abandoned. Initially, he will look for some famous production house in Jogja and offer cooperation. But Agung's offer of the production house owned by his abandoned cousin made Iwan more interested.
"Boleh the Great, please contact his cousin mas Agung, tell him to come here on Sunday morning. Tell him if I want to invite him to cooperate," said Iwan while nodding his head.
"Ready boss! I'll contact the guy immediately. Oh yes boss, by the way - after Flappy Bird, boss has a plan for what game?," asked Agung who was still curious about what other games Iwan will make.
"Hmm. I will not explain at length, but I can tell you the genre of mobile games that we will make next. Genrenya Real Time Strategy (RTS)!," said Iwan while grinning to show his teeth.
Iwan has been thinking about the hit game let alone the one he will make, Iwan will make the game more profitable and longer the period of popularity than Flappy Bird. Iwan's gonna make Clash of Clans!
