Victory in Life
Chapter 664
At half-time, Jasper met Jack, who was coming directly from the Swallow capital.
He originally intended to come to Coreana with Jack. However, Jasper decided to leave rather suddenly. Jack was very busy at the time, so he couldn't go with him. Hence, he could only make the trip to Coreana after finishing his remaining work.
"Mr Laine, has everything been going well these past few days?" Jack asked Jasper with a smile after they entered the room.
Jack asked the question jokingly, but Jasper shook his head. "Everything is not going well" he said.
Jack was just about to inquire in detail when Jasper handed over a document.
"Midas Company's? United Legends? Online Games?" Jack exclaims. He looked at Jasper in shock after flipping through the documents.
"Mr Laine, the profit points for Sena you mentioned earlier are online games?"
Jasper sits. He threw a cigarette at Jack and gave a small laugh. "Why? you don't like him?" She asked.
At present, most domestic Internet companies are made up of highly sophisticated and advanced intellectuals. Therefore, they regard things like games as trivial and look down on them.
"It doesn't matter if I like it or not. Can we really make it work with online games?" Jack asked suspiciously.
"The development and popularization of the Internet is inevitable, and those who are exposed to the Internet are definitely the younger generation. For young people, their enthusiasm for the game will not diminish. Just look at the number of people playing stand-alone pirated disc games in the country!"
"If only a small percentage of these people start playing online games, the industry could soon turn into a glut."
Jack sighed after hearing Jasper's words. "Mr Laine, even though I have my own opinion on this, your strategy is never wrong. So I'm interested in trying it. Even so, I have never heard of this company and game. Shouldn't we develop it ourselves?" She asked.
"If you've heard of this game, it means it's already popular. If that was the case, there would be no room for us to make a profit. Don't worry about the game choices. If we manage to bring it back to Somerland, we will definitely open up the entire online gaming market."
"Imagine, in a few years, it will be the beginning of online gaming governance in this country, and you, Jack Tanner, are leading the industry. Isn't that enough of a proposition?" Jasper said with a laugh while patting Jack on the shoulder.
"I'm giving you the task of buying all the copyright and development rights of this game. If necessary, you can recruit the entire project team" Jasper said. His words surprised Jack.
Although Midas Company will be the largest game manufacturer in Coreana, the online games they produce will all perform poorly in Somerland except United Legends. Moreover, a small market like Coreana did not deserve Jasper's attention.
In his past life, the Senator Agency and Midas Company were both involved in a lawsuit that lasted several years due to 'United Legends' copyright issues'. Eventually, the Senator Agency acquired the full acquisition of Midas Company in a state of rage.
It looked like a big deal back then, but with his knowledge of the future, Jasper knew that this deal was not really cheap.
Moreover, the management of Midas Company was truly disappointing. European server leaks caused the number of private servers to increase. Lately, there have even been jokes about official server updates containing content copied from private servers.
"Mr Laine, this must all be a bit expensive. Do they really want to sell it to us?" ask Jack. There was an awkward expression etched on his face.
"Money is not a problem. As long as it's within a reasonable range, I'll give you enough authority to buy it. The beta testing results of "United Legends" have not been fully satisfactory at Coreana, so you should take advantage of this opportunity. Buy everything in your power."
"It's obviously a difficult task, but why would I bother calling you if the task wasn't difficult?"
Jack nodded at Jasper's words. "Alright, I'll go back and analyze this information, and I'll try to contact them in the afternoon" he replied attentively.
Upon seeing Jack leave the room, Jasper's confidence develops.
Is "United Legends" a very spectacular game?
Actually, that's not the case.
However, "United Legends" was what they needed right now. It could potentially become a legend in the online gaming industry in Somerland if developed during this exact time period.
The richest man in the country has made his fortune through online gaming. He can earn billions every year.
