Chapter 71 What does Amazon have to do with it?

Lin Hui then asked in confusion: "You still don't believe that I can do it?

Do you want to make a bet with me?"

Huang Jing: “No, although I still find it unbelievable now.

But I'd rather believe you can handle this news summarization software.

No matter how troublesome it is to arrange music, you can still manage it.

Although it is troublesome when it comes to natural language processing, you should be able to find a way out."

Lin Hui:......

Uh, why can we draw an analogy from music to programming?

Sure enough, women’s brain circuits are weird!

Lin Hui had seen a similar explanation in a magazine before:

After showing behavior that wows women in the "sense/sexuality/domain"

Women tend to add a few points to the opposite sex's score in the rational field.

The magazine is honest and does not deceive me.

Huang Jing continued: "By the way, I am calling you this time because I have something to discuss with you."

Lin Hui: "What's the matter?"

Huang Jing: “We see that several games you previously launched are not available on other platforms.

It can be seen that you still have a soft spot for the Apple platform compared to other platforms.

I wonder if you have ever considered Apple exclusives?

If you are interested, you may consider signing an Apple platform exclusivity agreement.

This way we can provide you with additional income compensation.”

What does it mean to have a soft spot for the Apple platform?

Is this a last resort?

Other platforms are too stretched.

Give other platforms a chance and they will be useless.

Several small games that Lin Hui previously launched are still being pirated on these platforms.

Not only does it not correct it, it also recommends pirated copies.

That's outrageous.

How can such a platform cooperate?

You don’t respect developers and expect developers to generate value for you.

Then it is better to dream, there is everything in the dream.

Lin Hui just wants to say haha ​​to this kind of unscrupulous platform!

The so-called Apple exclusive agreement is not a new term.

After signing the agreement, within the time limit specified in the agreement.

Games developed by Lin Hui can only be launched on the Apple platform.

But it cannot be launched on platforms such as Android.

Many games have had a long period of Apple exclusivity.

Of course, giving is never one-way.

If the AppStore signs an exclusive agreement with the developer.

Developers must also be given an advance payment in exchange for limited-time exclusivity on the platform.

In addition, for applications that sign exclusive agreements.

Apple should come up with a more vigorous publicity strategy.

At the same time, applications that have signed exclusive agreements must not be removed from the shelves without reason...

Such an agreement may have implications for other developers.

But it had no impact on Lin Hui.

On the contrary (so far) it has been beneficial without any harm.

After all, Lin Hui has no idea of ​​launching Android in a short period of time.

It’s not that the Android platform can’t make money.

It’s really meaningless just to make money on your knees.

Although Lin Hui can't just sit back and make money on the Apple platform.

But at least I can sit and collect money.

All in all, Lin Hui doesn't mind this exclusive agreement on Guozi.

But he didn't agree directly.

Lin Hui asked curiously: "Normally, aren't exclusivity agreements usually signed before the application is launched?

Why did you think of signing an exclusivity agreement with me after you launched three games?"

Huang Jing did not hide it: "Of course it's because of the hard-to-replicate strength you showed in the DLC of the game "FLAPPY BIRD"..."

Lin Hui knew that the "music creation" ability he showed in the "FLAPPY BIRD" DLC would impress Apple.

Lin Hui also knew this very well.

Although whether it is game production or music creation ability.

He is not at the top level.

But there are not many developers who possess both abilities.

Lin Hui can even boast brazenly:

No other independent developer in this time and space can "get" music as easily as he can.

And no one as a music creator knows the game better than him.

Now that you know your unique value.

Then it will be easy to seize the initiative in negotiations.

Lin Hui continued: "Okay, then you can send me the agreement first and show it to me!"

Huang Jing: "Uh (⊙﹏⊙), boss, you are too flattering to me.

I'm just a pawn.

I'm here to ask if you have any intention.

The legal department should be responsible for drafting the agreement.

The specific content of the agreement should be discussed with someone at a higher level..."

Lin Hui:......

It's true, it's always been the case with big companies.

It would be troublesome to go through the process for even the most serious matters.

Lin Hui: "Well, okay then, just contact me when you have more information."

…

…

Huang Jing: "By the way, I heard some relevant information about Z.COM."

Lin Hui: "What news? Do you know what the hot searches were that day?"

Huang Jing: “I don’t know what the hot searches are.

However, your purchase of sky-high domain names has indeed attracted a lot of attention from major Internet companies.

The internal marketing departments of many companies even held special meetings to discuss this matter..."

I heard that I didn’t know what the hot searches were that day.

Lin Hui couldn't help but feel a little puzzled.

Could it be that I really have a hotly searched physique?

Huang Jing went to help him find out the news seriously.

Lin Hui was still very grateful.
