CSGO Unboxing Streamer: A Charity-Driven Tycoon

Chapter 179 Cooperation Achieved! Tencent Withdraws!
Du Juncheng doesn't know what the most awkward occasion in the world is.

But all he knew was that the current situation was rather awkward.

Lu Yiming's company is quite small.

Especially the company that owns Diting, Pangu.

The actual area is only a little over 100 square meters.

Laboratories account for 70%.

The reception room is only a little over ten square meters in size.

at this time.

Du Juncheng and Liao Lifei, the person in charge of Wilderness Action, sat together.

Behind them were their respective assistants.

Because these were all unexpected visits without prior notice, being put together like this created an awkward atmosphere.

Is Ace not working properly?

Liao Lifei's sudden remark made Du Juncheng raise an eyebrow.

He immediately said, "That's better than you guys! At least we don't have that many violent cheats here!"

Knives Out and Peacekeeper Elite.

If we had to say which one has the most deaths, it would undoubtedly be Knives Out.

At least Ace was wearing underwear.

But the "wilderness action" game on the pig farm is all about being completely honest with each other.

It is very common to have more than ten cheaters in a single game.

Both of them spoke in a very restrained tone afterward.

But the tit-for-tat stance is also quite obvious.

Lu Yiming was still in his hotel bed at that moment.

Last night I streamed at PDD's house until 10 pm, then had a late-night snack and it was already past midnight. After receiving a call from Cao Siyun, I learned that people from Tencent and NetEase had come.

Hearing this, he laughed and said, "Finally couldn't hold back anymore! Let's proceed according to my previous requests!"

From the time Di Ting was born until now.

No one had approached him seeking cooperation, and Lu Yiming thought that perhaps his requirements were too demanding.

However, the lack of participation from major companies could be attributed to their high expectations, and the absence of any activity from other small and medium-sized games suggests that Diting is largely isolated by the market.

At this point, the isolation was lifted for some unknown reason.

I can imagine that spring, the season for Diting, is about to arrive.

Don't underestimate just five percent of the income.

Currently, mobile games are far more lucrative than PC games.

Not much to say.

Take these two battle royale games that came to him seeking cooperation as examples. Their quarterly revenue is in the hundreds of millions. Once the cooperation is reached, Lu Yiming can just sit back and collect the money.

The call with Lu Yiming has ended.

Cao Siyun immediately went to meet with the two.

Since we've already met, there's no need to talk separately.

At this moment, Cao Siyun sat in front of the two of them.

"Sorry to keep you all waiting! I just spoke with the boss on the phone, and he welcomed the cooperation. I wonder if you watched our CEO Lu's live stream yesterday?"

This question is asking if they understand that the way they work with them involves a commission.

It can be said that only this point is agreed upon.

Only then is it necessary to continue the discussion.

Say something.

Du Juncheng and Liao Lifei did not particularly agree with the commission method that Lu Yiming mentioned during his live stream.

for them.

If something can be solved directly with money, it's best to spend money.

At this moment, Liao Lifei spoke first: "I've seen it! But a 5% commission is really too much. Here is the cooperation agreement I prepared. I wonder if Secretary Cao can take a look and see if it's feasible!"

The words fell.

His assistant behind him took out a document and handed it to Cao Siyun.

This is a fairly standard cooperation agreement.

The amount is quite substantial.

The current market price for anti-cheat devices is around one million per year.

They acquired the copyright to use the device and were willing to pay 15 million annually.

Du Juncheng also had his assistant hand over the contract that had been prepared overnight to Cao Siyun.

Compared to the contracts offered by pig farms.

His document explicitly requires that only the "Diting" technology support be provided to them in battle royale mobile games.

of course.

The price is naturally more generous than that of pig farms.

Exclusive deal for three years, 100 million.

Looking at these two contracts that seemed quite "sincere".

Cao Siyun looked at the two of them with regret and said, "I'm sorry! I think the basis for our cooperation is what President Lu said in the live broadcast yesterday. If we can't reach a consensus on this basis, I think our chances of cooperation are very slim!"

The words fell.

Cao Siyun closed the contract and pushed it in front of the two men.

In other countries, governance is done via Twitter.

Lu Yiming is the one who uses live streaming to convey the company's operational strategies.

In a sense, Lu Yiming and that person are the same kind of people.

The two had anticipated Cao Siyun's decisive rejection.

But I didn't expect it to be so straightforward.

Cooperation is not something that can be achieved in a day or two.

The two then engaged in a tug-of-war with Cao Siyun.

Du Juncheng, representing Tencent, is seeking exclusive licensing rights for a battle royale mobile game in China.

The pig farm represented by Liao Lifei doesn't really care about exclusivity; the core of their current game operation is actually in overseas markets.

Several days passed after Lu Yiming returned to Xingcheng.

None of them came to a satisfactory conclusion.

Tencent wants an exclusive deal.

Cao Siyun asked for 10% of the income.

I wouldn't even accept 5%, let alone 10%.

This is certainly something to discuss.

Liao Lifei didn't mind the 5% commission, but his condition was that he could use the Diting device in overseas markets as well.

For a time, the progress of cooperation among the three parties was at a standstill.

There are no impervious walls in the world.

The two were discovered by the media because they stayed in Changsha for a few days.

As a second-tier city, Xingcheng couldn't possibly be a place for two people to come together for tourism, and Diting's company just happens to be located in Xingcheng.

On the morning of the 8th.

Rumors have begun circulating online that Peacekeeper Elite and Knives Out are in talks with Diting for cooperation.

Holy crap! This is incredible! If this collaboration goes through, won't there be no more cheaters in the game?!

What is Di Ting? Is it very powerful?

Wow! The guy upstairs just got internet in his village? He doesn't even know about Diting? It's supposed to be an anti-cheat system with absolutely no cheats!

【Huh! Absolutely no cheating? That can't be right!】

It's true! At least they achieved zero cheaters in CS:GO on their platform! Honestly, if Peacekeeper Elite allowed the use of the "Listen" cheat, I'd definitely come back! The current gaming environment is simply unplayable!

[Haha! I bet half of the technical streamers will have to stop streaming once Di Ting is released!]

This reminds me of that prodigy from DanceE! He was ranked in the top ten on DanceE's ladder, but on Lu Zong's platform, he was just hanging around in the upper-middle tier.

【.】

These two mobile games were already quite popular.

In addition, the keyword is Lu Yiming.

It's a very hot topic.

Lu Yiming started broadcasting that afternoon.

The live chat was filled with questions about this, and Lu Yiming had asked the two of them about it before the broadcast. He immediately nodded and smiled, "That's right! It's indeed in progress!"

Hearing Lu Yiming admit it.

The viewers' eyes lit up.

As a fan of Lu Yiming.

The Diting (谛听) device has been hyped up quite a bit online, but because it has never achieved any notable results, some netizens jokingly say that it can only work on CS:GO and cannot achieve the same effect on other games.

of course.

Whether this statement came from netizens or competitors remains to be investigated.

But it is indeed a fact that there is no way to prove it.

At this time, two major mobile game companies approached them.

This means that Diting is recognized by the market.

This finally gave them a chance to hold their heads high.

soon.

People started asking in the live chat what stage the discussion had reached. Hearing this, Lu Yiming shrugged and said, "We've just reached the stage of frank communication and a full exchange of opinions! We have reservations!"

Not many people in the live stream could understand what he was saying.

After all, this needs to be considered in conjunction with a trending topic on the same day.

The trending topic was diplomatic jargon.

Frank communication means that there are significant differences that make communication impossible.

As for exchanging opinions, the talks were just individual discussions and no agreement was reached.

As for our reservations, it's because the talks didn't go smoothly, but his position remains unchanged.

soon.

Lu Yiming's words were translated by viewers who understood the reference in the live chat.

The viewers were absolutely thrilled.

Whether the negotiations succeed or not is not important to Lu Yiming's fans. They just need to know that someone is willing to use Di Ting. Unlike before, when it was just them bragging and other game players didn't care.

at the same time.

Cao Siyun and Du Juncheng were having their thirteenth cordial and friendly conversation.

Over the past few days, they have been talking two to three times a day on average.

The frequent negotiations were not entirely without progress.

At least Cao Siyun made it clear that Lu Yiming's attitude was irreversible.

at this time.

Du Juncheng has already communicated with his superiors.

They presented their final proposal.

"Five percent is no problem! But we demand exclusive licensing rights for domestic battle royale mobile games; that's our bottom line!"

These days, mastering core technologies is the key.

It's not that no one has thought of replicating the Diting (谛听) device.

But considering that there has been no news for such a long time, and that his superiors were able to arrange for him to come and discuss cooperation, it is likely that all of this has failed.

If Liao Lifei hadn't come.

He can continue to stall with Cao Siyun.

But it was precisely because of his arrival that the necessity of this cooperation was elevated to the point where cooperation was unavoidable.

It can be said that once Wilderness Action and Diting reach an exclusive licensing agreement...

So it's very likely that they will face a demotion or blow from Knives Out next.

Upon hearing this, Cao Siyun shook her head and said, "I'm glad you've made this concession! However, five percent is not enough to support your demands."

Chicken Dinner is a game that combines both high competitiveness and high entertainment value.

Once we can have a completely green environment.

The potential it can unleash is absolutely extraordinary.

Because of its highly competitive nature, CSGO already has a very small audience, and is currently still in the stage of developing new players.

However, battle royale games have a natural player base.

It's safe to say that it can easily generate millions of daily active users.

To expect exclusive licensing for a mere 5% price is, to put it mildly, a bit naive.

Like Knives Out, which wants to obtain overseas licenses.

They did not request exclusivity.

Cao Siyun also offered a 10% discount.

The bottom line is to negotiate 6%.

The other party's current price has already risen to six percent.

Cao Siyun originally wanted to try to lift it up a little higher.

But now she suddenly doesn't want to lift it anymore.

After all, the other party's bottom line seems to be six percent.

At this moment, Cao Siyun said, "President Du! An exclusive deal is probably impossible. I have already reached a preliminary agreement with President Liao."

That's a rather subtle statement.

It's highly unlikely, but it's still possible.

A preliminary consensus does not guarantee that a consensus will be reached later.

This means that Du Juncheng needs to give a new response immediately.

Otherwise, once they reach a cooperation agreement with Knives Out, they will be completely put at a disadvantage.

Upon hearing this, Du Juncheng wanted to shout that this was impossible.

After all, there's no reason why a pig farm would accept such harsh conditions.

It's not that they're stingy.

Rather, they had made projections for the game's revenue.

It's not a problem that it will bring in at least several billion dollars in revenue over the next few years.

However, this software managed to take away hundreds of millions of dollars.

How could I possibly agree to that?

That night.

After Lu Yiming finished his live stream, Cao Siyun called.

"President Lu! President Liao has agreed to our terms! As for President Du, he should be able to give us a response tomorrow as well."

His tone was quite joyful.

However, this is indeed something to be happy about.

Six percent of the income from Knives Out.

Not much to say.

It's definitely worth over 100 million a year.

This is much higher than the offer they brought before.

As for General Manager Du...

He should now know that the two sides have reached an agreement on cooperation.

This is not good news for him.

at the same time.

Upon receiving the message, Du Juncheng dialed his superior's number.

Although it's not working hours now.

But managers at their level basically have no personal time left.

"Liao Lifei has reached an agreement with the other party! What do we do next?"

The advantage of working for a large company is that there are more resources.

The downside is that the process is quite cumbersome.

If he had full control over this matter, he wouldn't have fallen into this passive situation.

He was only a Level 3 S member in Tencent's system.

At that moment, the person on the other end of his phone was a Level 5 S clan member.

Upon hearing this, the other party immediately replied, "Come back! The price is too high!"

The annual expenditure is as high as hundreds of millions.

This portion can be used to cover the cost of manual review.

If it's outsourced.

A team of 100 people is in charge of this project.

At most, it would cost 20 million a year.

The reason for inviting Du Juncheng to discuss cooperation is...

It was mainly to extend a friendly olive branch to Lu Yiming, this "rising star in the investment circle".

This statement rendered Du Juncheng's efforts of the past few days futile.

But there is a difference in their social standing.

This forces him to obey unconditionally.

Cao Siyun hadn't expected Tencent to give up so readily. After all, during the past few days of negotiations, she could clearly feel the other party's eagerness for Diting.

That evening, after learning that Du Juncheng would be returning the next day.

Cao Siyun called Lu Yiming again to inform him of the matter.

Didn't think much about it.

Lu Yiming said directly, "Maybe it's the pride of a big company? Tencent's core goal is probably exclusivity! But I'm very curious how they plan to compete with Knives Out, which has the Diting feature."

It wasn't just Lu Yiming who was curious.

The next morning, after learning that Du Juncheng had given up on Diting.

Liao Lifei, who came to sign the contract, was also taken aback.

noon.

The news that the two parties have reached a cooperation agreement has been officially announced online.

They also announced that the Wilderness Action game, protected by the Listening Beast, will be launched as soon as possible.

This caused a huge uproar among PUBG players.

Battle royale games are all pretty much the same.

However, a green platform is much more attractive to ordinary players.

It was also half an hour after their official announcement.

Peacekeeper Elite also announced their plan to intensify manual review of cheaters.
