    Several local TV stations want to invite Fat Brother to participate in their talk shows. You must know that it is not only them, but countless people are also curious about what is so special about this "Internet celebrity".

    In response to the hijacking incident a few days ago, there was a complete introduction on the Internet, and some media interviewed several passengers who were on the plane at the time. Although they were foreign friends, American netizens still gave Fat Brother a friendly foreign language. No. - Airplane brother.

    Zhao Qizhi and several others have been afraid to tell Fat Brother his new nickname, but fortunately, this matter has been hot for a day or two, and various brothers and sisters soon appeared on the Internet.

    There are also posts about buying CS game CDs on the Internet. There is no way to connect the whole country to the Internet. They are still very excited when they play on the local area network.

    On the last day of the E4 exhibition, Counter-Strike finally became popular!

    The fat brother laughed loudly with the employees who were cleaning the stall. After returning, he treated the guests, and the whole company was together.

    Just as he was talking, a foreigner with a big belly found in front of Xinghuo's booth: "Is it Mr. Zhou?"

    Operators who saw the potential of CS finally came to the door!

    In the pavilion's coffee shop.

    "Hello Mr. Zhou, I'm Tom from Thermoelectric Games. I want to talk to you about the game agent of Counter-Strike."

    Tom explained his intentions straight to the point. Their company intends to win the agency rights of Counter-Strike in the United States, but the conditions they offered made the fat brother a little disliked.

    800,000 US dollars a year, in line with the CS promotion of Spark Games in the United States, but the final player installed capacity and market coverage are not guaranteed.

    "As far as I know, game agents rarely have a one-year contract, right? Even if I am the boss of Xinghuo, it is difficult for me to convince my employees with the conditions you offered, so..."

    The fat brother did not continue, but shrugged apologetically.

    "But Mr. Zhou, you need to know that Spark is just an unknown small company in the United States. You have never set foot in this market. I believe that with our intervention, your marketing in the United States will be much easier."

    Tom replied calmly, implying that you can also understand that if you don't cooperate, we can also make it difficult for you to move.

    "I understand, but the transaction needs equality, doesn't it? If your company is still in this condition, I think I will consider building your own server, although it is more difficult."

    If you are familiar with Fat Brother, you will know that he is typical of eating soft and not hard. If Tom said it carefully, maybe Fat Brother agreed when his brain was hot, but he seemed to put on an aloof posture because Xinghuo was a Huaxia company, and wanted to force it. Press Xinghuo, the only crossing Jianglong.

    The negotiation finally broke up, Tom hoped that Zhou would think about it again, and before leaving, he repeatedly emphasized to him: This is the United States!

    The fat brother just snorted coldly, without you a butcher, I would eat a pig with hair if I don't believe it!

    In the next two days, game companies kept coming to their door to seek cooperation, but they were all too small companies.

    The U.S. market is definitely not going to be handed over so easily, but it has sold the agency rights in several other regions, such as RB, South Korea, Taiwan Province, and some countries in South America.

    Seeing that CS is finally no longer being cared about, Zhao Qizhi and others can also go shopping with confidence, but the fat guy who stayed in the hotel has a heart that keeps sinking, and they will be leaving on the plane the day after tomorrow. Quan has simply become his heart disease. If he can occupy most of the American market, what it means to Xinghuo is self-evident.

    Just after sending away a proposal for Spark Investment to build a server in the United States, they assisted in the management of the bizarre business split. A middle-aged man with flaxen hair color walked over, wearing a blue striped suit that fit, and seemed to always have a smile on his face.

    "Hello Zhou, I'm Michael, do you have time to chat?"

    The fat brother saw a small badge—four-color Rubik’s Cube—pinned on the buttonhole of his shirt, and the fat brother felt a sudden shock in his heart.

    finally come!

    Michael is more direct. The two of them threw out their own conditions as soon as they settled down. Although Microsoft is also uneasy about the routine and is not responsible for the results of operations, the agency fee of $7 million for three years is enough to impress the fat brother. Besides, Fat brother knows better than anyone that leaning against a big tree to enjoy the shade.

    Right, this looks like a sincere cooperation!

    "But we have one more request, which is to open up all your code."

    Michael casually threw out another request.

    The fat brother's expression froze when he heard the words, this is probably your ultimate goal!

    Microsoft has an incredibly strong game development division, and they've never had the precedent of running other companies' products, either by acquiring it or squeezing it out.

    Fat brother knows CS very well, so Spark can develop it in the shortest time.

    Microsoft has also studied CS these days. It is probably easy for them to do it, but the feel is much worse, yes, the feel!

    So having all the code would greatly reduce the development process for their new game.

    As for what kind of new games are being developed, everyone knows it well.

    "No problem, but not at this price, I want $15 million!"

    After a little thought, the fat brother agreed. He didn't mention anything about three or three years. He understood that this was a one-shot deal.

    For the first time, Michael showed a surprised expression. He thought Fat Brother would reject this excessive request without thinking, but he just asked for a price increase.

    "Are you sure you can open all the codes of CS?"

    Michael was afraid that the fat brother didn't hear it clearly and repeated it again.

    "Of course! But we're going back to China tomorrow, so if we're going to sign a contract or something, we'd better hurry up."

    Michael walked to the side and reported the situation to the top, and soon they responded to the fat brother's request. There was no problem with 15 million in 3 years, but he asked Spark Games to sign an agreement to share all the CS code, including the future transplant from Microsoft. It is legal and valid for other games.

    I don't open the code or sign the contract, so you won't develop secretly!

    Besides, even if you are infringing, can I still win a lawsuit in the United States against Microsoft!

    sign! Lao Tzu collects the money first.

    In less than an hour, someone from Microsoft's legal department rushed to the hotel where Brother Fat was staying with the contract. After reading the terms of the contract, Brother Fat read it again with pretense, signed his name, and stamped the seal of Xinghuo. .

    "Happy cooperation!"

    The fat brother stretched out his hand and smiled, want to copy my game? Can you copy so many games from the previous life? You are ready to eat dirt behind your brother!

    "Happy cooperation!"

    Michael also smiled and shook hands with the fat brother, I am afraid that in less than a year, CS will disappear from the market, and Microsoft's new game will replace it!

    The fat brother stood at the door and waved goodbye to Michael with a smile. Michael also stuck his head out and waved his hand. The fat brother shouted coldly, "Don't forget to urge your finances to pay quickly!"

    Zhao Qizhi, who was laughing and laughing, walked downstairs to the hotel with a large bag and a small bag. When they saw the fat brother at the door, they quickly asked curiously, "Boss, what are you doing here?"

    The fat brother raised the thick stack of contracts in his hand, and said in a stern voice, "Did you see it?"

    "What is this? Microsoft?!"

    Sun Bin's voice changed when he saw the words on the contract!

    "What Microsoft?"

    "Boss, show me quickly!"

    Several people hurriedly opened the contract, and words such as Microsoft, $15 million jumped into everyone's sight.

    "Ah ah ah! Boss, you are so awesome!"

    Several people screamed, and others in the lobby cast strange glances at the crying and laughing young people at the door.

    The next day, not long after Fat Brother and others boarded the plane back home, Microsoft’s official website issued a brief announcement.

    "Microsoft has signed a North American Counter-Strike agency agreement with Huaxia Spark Games. The agreement is valid for 3 years and the agency fee is $15 million. Microsoft hopes to provide players with better quality games in the next three years.and service!”

    As soon as the announcement came out, the Quartet shook.
