Level 1 Player

Chapter 83 Partnership with Guest

“What do you want from me, Guest?”

Bulletin Pitt has already finished preparing to integrate local area network with the system.

It is in a state where it can be commercialized without Hyunseong’s help.

But why did you find Hyunseong?

And why did you take out the card called partnership?

For Hyunseong, there was no choice but to raise doubts.

“The server you gave me can’t handle all the players who can access the system, right? Also, if you do not sell diesel fuel or fix the error of the server, you will end up destroying yourself.”

The guest was definitely out of the ordinary.

It was possible only with the help of experts Hyunseong was able to catch errors while operating and maintaining the free server.

Those experts are at the level where Hyunseong lives.

“I want you to take on the role of running the server. I will only help you to integrate it with the system. The two of us are working together. We want to split the profits we get from this in half.”

At the words of the guest, Hyunseong’s head was spinning.

‘Monthly subscription, cash item, random draw, enhancement item.’

There were plenty of ways to suck players’ points.

‘Partnership is essential.’

Without Guest, it is impossible to connect the game server and system once.

another one.

Hyunseong didn’t have the points to afford the huge upfront cost.

However… … .

‘Even so, 5 to 5 doesn’t make sense.’

It was absolutely unacceptable to put a bridge in the middle and eat half of the profits.

“Gespit, in the world I live in, there is such a thing as the cost of source technology. Originally, the cost was… … .”

Hyunseong gave explanations one after another.

There is only one point.

It was the importance of the original technology.

“okay? So, what percentage do you want?”

At the guest’s question, Hyunseong vigorously opened her mouth.

“It’s eight to two.”

“Of course, you’re eight and I’m two, right?”

Hyunseong nodded his head as if it was natural.

“I’d rather not do it, you robber this day!”

The guest shouted loudly.

From the guest’s point of view, it was a 5 to 5 concession.

Once the server and system were combined and a huge amount of capital was invested, only Guest could do it.

But why don’t you leave that ball out and propose an 8-2?

I knew he was a strong guy, but I didn’t know he was this big.

“Gepit, listen to me. Incorporating a server into your system can earn you huge points. I’ll explain how to do it. Once there is a monthly subscription… … .”

Hyunseong brushed her mouth hard.

When I explained about hybrids that included all the charging elements of Korean game companies, Gespit’s mouth widened and opened.

“Well, if you do that, won’t the users drop out more and more?”

It was too harsh treatment.

“But people do.”

“Isn’t the profit still decreasing?”

“Then we can do a big patch or release a new game. Then new users will stick to it.”

At Hyunseong’s words, Guest was at a loss for words.

“In the dimension where I live, there are countless ways to extract points from players in one way or another.”

Although I didn’t tell Guest, I ran sites like Item Bay, where I could exchange points for game money.

If they have enough points, it will probably not be easy to overcome the temptation of Hyeon-jil.

“Ugh.”

Guest was in trouble.

After hearing Hyunseong’s words, I couldn’t say that I don’t do it like before.

As Gespit himself is a true gamer, he knew better than anyone how much of a ripple effect the billing factors Hyunseong just talked about had.

‘It was an attempt to make the game a little more fun and earn pocket money as a side job.’It suddenly became a huge business.

It is a huge business on a scale that even a guest cannot easily give up, which can be called rejection.

“Still, 8-2 is too harsh.”

“Aren’t I doing server maintenance and proper patching?”

“I am the one who has the original technology to connect the server and the system with the initial capital.”

Hyunseong and Guest had a sharp confrontation.

“great. Then I’ll make a little more concession and make it 7.5 to 2.5.”

“6 to 4. You can never give up more than that.”

Hyunseong and Gespit groaned and reached an agreement.

As a result.

“7 to 3, this is the ultimatum!”

Guest first raised the white flag.

“great.”

Hyunseong accepted Guest’s offer as if he was making a big concession.

But that is only the outward appearance.

Hyunseong’s inner heart was filled with great joy.

‘I was thinking of 6 vs 4 or at worst 5 vs 5.’

This partnership is a big business that is hard to give up even from the guest’s point of view.

But the same goes for Hyunseong.

Literally the goose that lays golden eggs.

I couldn’t give up on this without going crazy.

‘You can become a legend in an instant.’

1,000 trillion points.

There was a solution that could break through the wall where there was no way to see the answer.

“First, build a proper server. Connecting that server to the system will be done by me.”

“all right.”

“Okay, but I have a question for you.”

“Yes, you can ask any questions.”

“Can’t I be seen as the operator of the game in a way?”

“That’s right.”

To be precise, it is correct to say that he is a major shareholder with a large stake in this business rather than an operator, but it has been overlooked.

“Then I don’t need to use points to pay a flat monthly fee or buy cash items, right? The owner doesn’t have to pay money to buy his own, right?”

At Geth Pitt’s words, Hyunseong shook his head with a cold expression on his face.

“It cannot be. The game should be fair. If it were me, I would enjoy the game through due process.”

At Hyunseong’s words, Guest’s expression turned pale.

“But we can apply the employee discount concept to give you access to the game at a huge discount.”

At Hyunseong’s words, Guest’s face brightened.

“And anyway, even if you spend points in the game, isn’t it money that comes back to you in the end?”

After passing 70% of the system usage fee and net profit to Hyunseong, it was right to return it to himself anyway.

“That’s right. Even if you use the same points anyway, you get an automatic discount.”

“We will apply a 20% employee discount to Guest. If you consider getting it back later, it’s almost half the price.”

“Yes, you are right. I had a chance to earn big points, and that would be like a penny.”

That’s right.

Is it possible for a major shareholder of a game company to go bankrupt by being smart about their company’s games?

In fact, you can just give it out to guests for free.

‘But because there is such a thing as if.’

Gespit has a strong potential for growth as a disruptive species in the game ecosystem.

As such, it was necessary to stock the reins just in case.

“Then I will go back. It takes preparation to build a proper server.”

“Let it be.”

As soon as Guest’s permission fell, Hyunseong returned to Earth.

After that, he went straight to the game company.

* * *

Hyunseong is fully prepared to access the system and activate the game.

He built large servers and hired specialists for each game.

From the outside, it was a piece of money that was useless.

This is because no one was paying the same level of money as the main server for a free server created by an individual to enjoy alone.

If it wasn’t for the request of the major shareholder, the game company would never have come forward.

‘Now the preparations are almost complete. But how the hell are you going to connect this to the system?’

On Earth, servers and computers are connected via the Internet.

In what way does Guest Fit intend to connect the computer and server purchased by Hyunseong’s customers?

Hyunseong waited for the guest’s call with deep doubts.

-Employer Gespit has applied for the employment of mercenary Choi Hyunseong. Accept?

-[Yes No]

The long-awaited guest’s call came.

Hyunseong clicked yes.

Wrath!

With a bright light, a familiar landscape appeared in front of Hyunseong’s eyes.

It was the Demon Castle of Gespit.

“Come.”

Guest greeted Hyunseong with a seductive smile.

“Yes, Mr. Gespit.”

“Take it.”

Guest threw a small jewel at Hyunseong.

Hyunseong accepted the bail.

For Exchange Gem Provider – Legendary Rank

-You can designate one server for the exchange’s gem supplier.

– You can communicate and communicate information to the computer used for the exchange’s gem recipients.

-Computers that use the Exchange Gem can communicate with each other and exchange points.

-Points are consumed every time you pass information.

-Point consumption increases depending on the amount of information delivered and the number of targets.

– This is a consumable item.

-The target for paying the consumed points is designated as a guest.

– 70% of the points earned are distributed to Choi Hyunseong and 30% to Guest.

“It’s amazing.”

Hyunseong opened his mouth wide.

I didn’t know such an item existed.

“I have looked through the purchase window countless times, but this is the first time I have seen anything like this.”

At Hyunseong’s words, the guest burst into laughter.

“I made it myself, so it has to be special.”

“Did you make it yourself?”

Hyunseong asked, surprised.

It’s a legendary item.

But you made it yourself, not from a monster?

I never dreamed that Guest would have the ability to produce.

“I spent quite a bit of trouble hanging out with the demon craftsmen. This is a fusion of high-level black magic and the special skills of demon craftsmen… … .”

Explanations about the jewels of exchange flowed out of Gespit’s mouth.

It was about praising his own achievements and greatness.

‘That’s great.’

For Hyunseong, I was embarrassed by the lengthy explanations that I couldn’t understand.

But he knew enough that he was great.

“I plan to sell this in bulk.”

“Are you selling?”

“Isn’t it natural? How much effort did you put into making this?”

“How much do you plan to sell?”

“I plan to get at least 1 trillion points.”

Hearing the guest’s words, Hyunseong opened her mouth wide.

The price was too high for a consumable item.

“You thought you were going to make a solid profit from this as well.”

“Isn’t it obvious? This is my pure creation.”It was an item with a strong desire for gamers to play multiplayer.

“Too expensive. I think it would be good to sell it for around 10 billion points.”

“what? Why the hell?”

At Hyunseong’s words, Guest asked with a surprised expression.

“One trillion points for one consumable item is too expensive.”

“Isn’t it legendary level!”

Guest shouted as if protesting.

“There is one thing I would like to ask, is it possible to consume points every time you send information about exchange gem recipients?”

“Isn’t it obvious? However, the consumption points are not so large as it is to transmit simple game information.”

“From my point of view, if it is released like this, it will be 100% destroyed.”

“what?”

“The price is too high.”

“Isn’t that just 1 trillion points? Also, since horses are consumable, once registered, they can be used continuously.”

Guest had an expression on his face that he didn’t really understand.

I honestly didn’t understand why they said cheap stuff so expensive.

“That’s the standard for Guest.”

Even for VIPs who can afford it, 1 trillion points is a pretty big point.

It is not simply the amount to be spent on one consumable item.

“What I and Guest need to do now is not to earn points. Even if you unlock a product at a price that is close to free, you have to collect users.”

“Have you not already collected a lot?”

The guest did not understand Hyunseong’s words.

How many computers and how many games did Hyunseong sell so far?

Naturally, the number of customers to purchase the exchange jewels was enormous.

“You have to show them a taste of multiplayer too. It takes a certain amount of investment to attract happy single-player customers.”

The number of customers who have purchased a local area network is not very high.

What if there were many customers who purchased a local area network?

You can do as Guest says.

Because they got a taste of multiplayer to some extent.

But if you have a small number of such customers, it becomes a problem.

“I even want to tell you to lower the price to 1 billion points.”

To make the game fun?

First, there must be a lot of users.

When there are many users who can’t pay their bills because they don’t have money, a small number of VIPs can play hard.

In order for a high level to be special, an absolute majority of low levels are required.

What fun would it be to play a game full of high levels?

“I have no intention of doing that.”

Guest refused.

In fact, it was normal.

The cost of the materials used to make one of the jewels of exchange amounted to tens of billions of points.

Even if you sell for 10 billion points, if you sell for 1 billion points, you are in a loss, and it is a level that is completely distributed.

“For now, listen to me.”

Hyunseong continued explaining the basic growth direction of the game.

Guspit’s expression changed a little as if it was worthwhile to vomit for a while.

“I barely understood what you were saying. However… … .”

It seemed that they did not want to sell a product that cost tens of billions of points for materials alone for 1 billion points.

“Then I will take all the points as much as I lose. Instead, let’s change the ratio of 7 to 3 to 8 to 2. I’m going to invest a little more and raise the ratio.”

Guest’s eyes fluttered at Hyunseong’s words.

“Oh, no. I’ll just spend the initial investment as I said before.”

Guest’s heart was shaken by Hyunseong’s confident eyes.

I instinctively felt it.

If I accepted Hyunseong’s proposal here, I was sure that I would regret it greatly in the future.

“great. Then you do it.”

Hyunseong said to Guest with a sad expression.

To be honest, it was really sad.

If Guest had really lowered the ratio, it was a great opportunity to earn a lot of money.
