GAME DEVELOPER SYSTEM

Chapter 25 25 - Proposals

?After a few minutes, Harold returned only to apologize to David, Selena and Gabe, then took his leave, still insisting that David get him the EA number so he could help them sort this out.

The reason for never having appeared a game that helped cooks in this way, is that in addition to the Developers not having the inspiration and motivation to do something like this, they still needed to have the necessary knowledge to teach the NPC these skills and only later the NPCs could teach the Players.

And considering how proud Developers were of their profession, hardly a Developer would develop a skill so well that it would be useful to teach other Players. Especially when making a Rank F game, which is where the Developer is still at the beginning of his career.

Smiling at what just happened, Gabe continued eating quietly, without any concern for the presence of David and Selena, which made the two raise their eyebrows a little, as normally students from Harrington University or even other Rank Developers lower were too afraid to offend them.

Gabe, on the other hand, had none of those concerns. Not only because he felt that David and Selena were apparently not so superficial people with the contact he had with them, but also because of confidence in himself, despite still being only an F Rank Developer, he knew that he had the potential to become become a Developer Rank S in record time.

Not only did he have confidence in becoming an S Rank Developer, he also knew that he would probably be among the fastest humans to become an S Rank Developer!

After watching Gabe some more, David smiled and finally said the reason for calling Gabe here.

"Howard, we've been getting some calls recently from the city government interested in getting in touch with you." David explained while Selena continued to the side just watching the two and analyzing Gabe's reaction.

She wasn't someone who was very fond of talking, or being in the spotlight, but as a C-Rank Developer youth, it was impossible for her mind to be simple.

Hearing this, Gabe looked at Mr. Brown and asked. "What are they interested in me, Mr. Brown?"

David cracked a small smile and explained. "There are two reasons, the first is an interest that Sandstone Bay Television has in their game, Residual Devil, where they saw great potential in the game and want a Player Actor to play this for them to broadcast on television as a drama. "

As soon as he finished saying that, David looked at Gabe imagining his reaction, as with Gabe's age, the probability of Gabe being very excited about this news was very high.

But to David's disappointment, Gabe not only got excited, he also frowned.

"What's the matter, boy?" David asked worriedly.

Gabe didn't respond right away and continued thinking for a few seconds.

Seeing this, David didn't interrupt and watched Gabe with great interest.

Finally, after a few seconds, Gabe sighed and answered. "Okay, that doesn't look so bad."

Hearing that, not only was David surprised, even Selena slightly raised her eyebrow at Gabe's response.

As a famous Developer Rank C, she already had some of her games broadcast on television, but usually this was only on channels focused on Players and Developers, which had a low audience, but was great for attracting new audiences to her game.

She couldn't understand why Gabe was so resistant about this.

"Doesn't that please you?" David asked confused.

Gabe saw the surprise in their eyes and understood. "Not necessarily. While this is a great way for the game to become famous, it will also slightly affect the player's experience with the game. Some secrets and surprises that I've put into the game won't surprise players anymore."

Hearing this, Selena and David were a bit taken aback, and Gabe continued.

"Of course, the livestreams already do that job, but not necessarily all Players will watch the livestreams, so a portion of them will still experience the game without knowing anything. With this being broadcast on Sandstone Bay Television, which is not even a channel focused on Players and Developers, even those players will get spoilers."

"But, on the other hand, this will also be important to make my name spread around the city, so my next games will have a larger potential audience and consequently I will get more Players and more money, which will be highly beneficial. Not to mention the experience and the hype that playing a game from a television series might generate different emotions in Players, something worth studying."

"Thinking about all this, the benefits far outweigh the harms of this arrangement. I have no reason to refuse, other than of course, they didn't want to pay me a satisfactory amount, as the potential profit this could bring them It's pretty high." Gabe finally finished explaining his train of thought.

Of course, there were still some small details that he thought he'd rather just not say, but in essence he didn't have much to hide about it and just said most of what he thought.

Listening to Gabe's train of thought, as he considered not only the potential profit but also the players' experience that could be spoiled by playing a game they already knew the story of, or even considering the emotion Players felt while playing the game could be different and that this should be studied.

All the little calculations and thoughts that Gabe had in those few seconds that he received the news until the moment he decided if this was more beneficial than harmful for him, caused David and Selena to be slightly shocked by this boy.

He was only 22 years old and already had such a mature and stable mind, something that even made the two of them feel that some of their worries were useless, this boy already had his own discernment to think about these details, so in the future he could already control many things without needing so much of their help with thought.

"Haha boy, every time we talk you manage to surprise me with something, that's amazing!" David chuckled as he patted Gabe's shoulder proudly.

Even Selena nodded in agreement with David's thought.

David continued. "Don't worry about the remuneration. SBT (Sandstone Bay Television), decided that they wanted to turn the game into 40-minute episodes, editing out parts that were a bit boring and boring for the viewer, thus paying you a total of $40,000 per episode broadcast But they just put a little note. If the show doesn't get as many ratings as they thought, they can stop airing it at any time and they won't have to pay you for the unaired episodes."

Hearing that, Gabe's eyes lit up. Considering that SBT would make 40-minute episodes, they could probably make at least 4 episodes of the two Chapters that are already available in the game, and considering until the end of the game, it's possible that they could make at least 10 or 20 more episodes, which will be amazing for Gabe both in terms of monetary income, which will be a huge profit at no cost to him, and also in terms of publicity.

But Gabe soon ran into a problem.

"Did they talk about broadcasting the show in other cities?" Gabe asked with a furrowed brow.

Hearing this comment, David was a little surprised and replied. "No, they didn't say anything about that."

Gabe just shook his head and answered. "So please tell them that if they wanted to do the contract it should make it clear that they only own the rights to broadcast Residual Devil in Sandstone Bay, if they want to broadcast it to other cities, or sell the broadcast rights from other cities, they can't do this without communicating with me first and making another contract about it. Of course, also let them know that if they get other stations from other cities interested in this, they will get a share of the profit as a commission fee."

Hearing Gabe's explanation, David was even more shocked! He hadn't thought about that point at all!

As he had never been invited to participate in any television program, he didn't have such deep thoughts about it, but seeing the way that Gabe was already considering possible holes in the contract that SBT could take advantage of, David sighed relaxed.

He had prevented SBT from contacting Gabe directly for fear of Gabe being impulsive and making a decision that he might regret in the future, so David intended to help Gabe with the program's decision because of the greater knowledge he already had, but now?

David discovered that Gabe was very knowledgeable and was explaining things to him that he had never thought of before!

'Next time I can give his number to SBT directly, with this kid's mind maybe SBT itself will be taken advantage of instead of them trying to take advantage of him haha!' David mentally chuckled as he thought of SBT executives as shocked as he was.

"Now we have one last matter to deal with." Selena finally said it for the first time.

Hearing Selena's sweet voice, Gabe finally focused his attention on her and had to control his gaze quite a bit.

Selena was a mature woman, with short hair a little above her shoulders and with a little red streaks in her hair, something that with the red dress she was wearing, it matched a lot.

On her right shoulder it was possible to see a tattoo that extended from her chest across her shoulders to the middle of her arm, which made Gabe have to control his gaze a little so as not to go deep into the dress to look at her tattoo and become impolite. .

But even though she was 6 years older than he was, Gabe had to admit, this woman's charm was the greatest he had ever seen.

Seeing Gabe's gaze focus for a fraction of a second on the tattoo on her chest, Selena just managed a small smile at the corner of her mouth as she ignored that and kept saying.

"In addition to SBT wanting to get in touch with you, the city government also contacted us trying to reach you. From what Wilson said over the phone, he wants an exclusive contract with you." She said just that as she took a sip from her glass of wine and started watching Gabe.

Unlike David who was much more concerned about Gabe, trying to give him as much information as possible so he wouldn't make the wrong decision.

After Gabe demonstrated such a mature thought process, Selena was interested in him enough to want to test the limits of how far this boy could think with the little information she would give him.

David was about to complement what Selena had said when she just raised her hand and he was quiet again, showing the authority of this woman that despite being silent the whole time, when she finally said something you could feel her imposition .

Even though she and David were both C-Rank Developers, David was over 60 while Selena wasn't even 30 yet. The potential difference between the two was absurd.

At David's age, Selena would probably be an A Rank Developer, or possibly even one of the few S Rank Developers in the country, someone most people wouldn't even consider offending.

And at that moment, Gabe Howard, a young boy who is still in the process of graduating from Harrington University, is sitting across from this woman and being evaluated by her.
