Chapter 31: Bringing New Entertainment to the World
Arthur can't fully understand Karina's excitement because he doesn't know Karina's life experience, but since Karina is willing to be his friend, Arthur will naturally agree happily. After all, no one will dislike him.
I have many friends.
Although it was his first time taking a boat, there was nothing too new for Arthur. After chatting with Karina for a while, everyone had dinner and went back to their rooms to rest. After all,
It was getting late, and there were no entertainment activities.
Wait, entertainment!
Suddenly Arthur thought, why had he never thought about entertainment activities before? You know, the entertainment in this world is quite boring. Apart from some musicals and dances, there are only some small games invented by children themselves.
It would be really interesting to think about it if I could bring entertainment activities from another world here.
So what is better to get? How about poker? If it is this, it is relatively simple to do.
It’s just that Arthur couldn’t find a piece of parchment on this sailboat, let alone a piece of cardboard. As for other entertainment activities, such as mahjong, chess, go, checkers, etc., Arthur couldn’t do it now.
What comes out is distressing.
It's really depressing to have an idea in your mind but not be able to do it due to conditions.
Forget it, that’s it for today. I’ll ask Karina tomorrow to see if she has any good ideas. Since she is the Lord of Messiah, she should give herself some better suggestions in this regard.
Bar.
"The card game you mentioned is indeed very interesting."
When Karina learned about Arthur's idea the next day, she immediately fell into deep thought. After hearing the rules of the card game from Arthur's mouth, she immediately discovered the beauty of it. If
If this card game can become popular, once it works well, it will definitely make a lot of money, and it will also bring more business opportunities to Messiah.
However, the price of paper in this world is relatively expensive, so it is probably not that simple to make this card game popular quickly. But no matter what, at least try to make a set of playing cards that Arthur talks about first.
If it's really interesting, there's no harm in trying to commercialize it.
"Then let's make a sample first."
Just do it. Although Karina is a magician, she also has a little dabbling in alchemy. No, soon, she successfully made a complete set of playing cards through Arthur's guidance.
, the patterns on each playing card are lifelike and look quite exquisite.
"That should be enough."
"That's right! That's it!"
Holding the poker in his hand, Arthur suddenly felt a sense of long absence. You must know that during the training of that year, he often played poker with his teammates to relax and relax, so he grabbed these cards in his hand.
, Arthur even felt as if he had returned to Earth.
"Now that it's done, let's try it for fun first."
Now Karina is more concerned about the playability of this so-called playing card. After the finished product is produced, she is naturally eager to start trying it out.
But just Karina and Arthur are not enough. Even an ordinary Explosive Red Ten requires four people to play, or a three-person Landlord game is also possible, but who can play it with?
Forget about the people from the Knights. The loyalty of those knights to the Lord of the City is self-evident. Do you want them to sit next to Karina and play together? Don’t be ridiculous, you won’t do that even if you kill them.
Then we can only go to Asuna. I am afraid that among this group of people, Asuna is the only one who dares to sit next to Karina.
Asuna was quite surprised that Arthur actually invited her to play a game, especially with Karina as his companion, which made her very confused.
What kind of game is this?
At the beginning, Asuna had some respect for Karina, but once she started playing cards, Asuna immediately threw herself into it. Asuna, who had never had any entertainment activities, became addicted to it when she played cards for the first time.
Being fascinated by it is enough to show how boring the entertainment in this world is.
The three-person Landlord game ended after nearly two hours of playing. This was beyond Arthur's expectation. At the same time, Karina and Asuna also expressed that they did not enjoy themselves to the fullest. After agreeing on the time,
Be sure to play it a few more times.
Well, although Arthur thought that poker would be popular, he didn't expect that poker would conquer the two girls in front of him all at once. It was incredible.
"Arthur, do you think this playing card can be commercialized?" After playing, Karina's expression became serious. This matter is very important, and she must seek Arthur's opinion.
"Of course, I believe that many people will like this." Arthur's expression was very certain. In fact, he also had absolute confidence in this.
"Very good, then I want to buy the exclusive distribution rights of this playing card from you. I wonder if you are willing?" Karina nodded, and then asked Arthur with a serious look.
Although the world does not care much about copyright issues, since this playing card was invented by Arthur, Karina must purchase the distribution rights from Arthur before she can commercialize it.
Of course, Karina can actually ignore Arthur. Anyway, this playing card is easy to make, and it is not difficult to copy it casually.
But the most important thing is that Karina regards Arthur as a friend, so she will not let Arthur suffer. She does not want to lose Arthur's friendship just because she got a set of playing cards.
"Yes, why wouldn't you want to if you can make money?" Arthur didn't expect that Karina would buy the distribution rights from him, but since they had already taken the initiative, what did he have to say?
Anyway, for Arthur, he only got playing cards for fun and entertainment. He never thought about getting anything from using them. Now that he can still make money, wouldn't it be better for him?
"That's great, let's do this. Whenever I successfully sell a set of playing cards, you can get 30% of the net profit. Is that okay?"
"Thirty percent? Is that too much?"
Seeing that Arthur was willing to give her the distribution rights, Karina immediately breathed a sigh of relief, but when Karina actually wanted to give her 30% of the profits, Arthur immediately became a little uneasy.
Although I don’t know how big of a deal Karina is planning to do, 30% of the net profit is indeed a large number.
