“Indeed, it sounds excellent. But our new server is still under development. Our current server cannot fulfil this bridging task just yet and will require more time, probably at least a year or so.” Finn Lewis thought for a second and then spoke.

“A year isn’t long. The content of our game, just regarding leveling up to max level and gradually obtaining in-game equipment, would take about a year.” Yuri Johnson thought about it and decisively spoke.

“What do you believe to be an appropriate agency fee for our partnership?” Lewis asked with a smile.

“At least double what Monster World’s agency fee is!” Yuri Johnson immediately responded. You must know that the funds WY spends yearly to endorse Monster World requires them to pay Blizzard an agency fee of 70 million Federal coin.

Double the agency fee, that is to say, at least 140 million Federal coin is required for the yearly agency fee. Lewis simply chuckled, then stood up and said to WY, “Let’s go, we’ll discuss this further with them. As for the issue of the agency fee, I have an idea in mind.”

“Alright then.” Johnson could only follow him up, “The parties interested in negotiating for the agency right are the Eidos Game Company from the Alliance Countries, EA from the North Federation, and SY from Belmare Country.”

“Hmm, I understand.” Lewis nodded.

Truthfully, becoming a Toras of an industry doesn’t necessarily mean monopolizing the entire industry. Did Qualcomm monopolize the entire industry? No! There are many companies producing mobile phone chips and basebands, but Qualcomm has still been fined multiple times by the Flame Nation’s official anti-monopoly investigation! This is because Qualcomm essentially dictates the pricing of the entire mobile phone chip, baseband and the like! Bluntly speaking, the price I state this product to be, is what it is. I tell you what to buy, and you have to buy it, thus forming a monopoly!

Lewis quickly arrived at the conference room with Johnson. There were about a dozen middle-aged men chatting amongst each other in the room. When they saw Johnson and Lewis enter, they all turned their attention towards them. With a glance, Lewis could identify that they were from the three big companies.

Naturally, these people knew Johnson, but they didn’t recognize Lewis, who walked ahead of Johnson. But these people weren’t fools. The acquisition of /VY is no longer new news. With Lewis walking ahead of Johnson, they immediately realised that this must be the new president of WY, the legendary mysterious player of NW, Finn Lewis.

“Hello everyone, welcome to WY, we’re here to discuss the agency rights with us. However, everyone should know that Director Johnson here halted all the negotiations in progress. That was actually under my instructions.”

“May I ask why Mr. Lewis decided to halt the negotiations? What were your considerations?” a middle-aged man with blond hair and a slightly balding scalp, seated to the left of Lewis, asked.

“Who I might this man be?” Lewis asked, looking at the middle-aged man.

“Mr. Lee, George Lee Evans, the Eidos’s Vice President.” Johnson immediately introduced Lewis.

“Nice to meet you, Mr. Lee. Actually, it’s quite simple. The reason is that Director Johnson here doesn’t know this game very well. I am here to tell you that you have all underestimated this game.” Lewis spoke lightly.

The attendees looked at each other and waited for Lewis to continue. Lewis was straightforward and called a secretary. After reattaching the projection device in the conference room, Lewis replayed the game demonstration he had given to Johnson.

“…In summary, when we open the Territory Wars, there will be over 400,000 player battling in a single server! Do you realize what this means? Players from countries all over the world will be gaming on a single server! How many players would want to pass up such a game?” Lewis smiled and asked.

“Mr. Lewis, Eidos is willing to offer 100 million Federal coin for the agency rights in the Southern Federation region!” Lee immediately blurted out excitedly. One should know that the total players in the entire Southern Federation might not even be as many as those in Flame Nation, and this figure of 100 million Federal coin is huge!

“Sorry, but I’m not satisfied with this offer, or rather, this type of partnership leaves me unsatisfied.” Lewis thought about it for a while before shaking his head slightly.

“In that case, what type of partnership are you interested in, Mr. Lewis?” The attendees looked at each other, then Lee asked.

“I…” Before Lewis could even finish a word, Olivia Thatcher’s voice came through in his ear, “Sir, something very important has happened that I think might interest you.”

“I have an urgent matter now, Yuri, you handle this first. Also, help me find another conference room.” Lewis immediately stood up and spoke.

The people in the room looked at each other, not knowing what Lewis meant. Even Johnson didn’t quite understand. Even if it’s a negotiation strategy, shouldn’t he at least give a rough idea of his demand?

“Director Lewis?” Johnson asked in confusion.

“I have an urgent matter that I just remembered, it’s very important. You handle this first, I’ll join later.” Lewis spoke directly.

After speaking, Lewis didn’t even wait for Johnson to reply and immediately left the conference room. Outside the conference room, Lewis saw Johnson’s secretary sitting on a chair. When she saw Lewis, she immediately stood up, “Lead me to a quiet small conference room where no one can get close to.” Lewis spoke bluntly.

The secretary hesitated a moment before quickly nodding and saying, “Please follow me, Director Lewis.”

While the Celeston headquarters isn’t as large as in Galaxyshire, it’s certainly not small either, and isn’t just limited to a single conference room. The secretary promptly led Lewis upstairs to the floor containing Finn’s reserved office and Johnson’s office.

“Director Lewis, this is your prepared office. It was only recently tidied up and there won’t be any interruptions. If you need anything, you can directly call for me.” the secretary respectfully said.

“I understand, thank you.” Lewis nodded and then entered his office. As he locked the door from inside, he then asked in surprise, ‘What happened? What is it?”

“A flying object has been detected 87 kilometers to our northeast direction, at a height of 36 ,700 meters and travelling at around Mach 3.” Olivia Thatcher spoke directly.

“Are you sure your surveillance is correct?” Lewis was taken aback. A flying object? And it’s at an altitude of over 36,000 meters? This altitude exceeds the max limit of all current service aircraft and fighters. At an altitude of 36,000 meters, the average commercial airline flight’s altitude isn’t even more than

10,000 meters..
