Xu Hao offered five million USD to organize a competition.
For a single player game, this was a luxury.
After all, with the 5 million that Steam was going to pay, it would be a total of 10 million.
According to Xu Hao, the top ten would split the five million dollars equally.
The prize money was actually not much different from the top competition of the most popular mobile game in the country, King of Pesticide.
However, it was easier to get the prize money from Minecraft than from other eSports competitions.
They didn't need to pay any seat fees, nor did they need to spend money to sign any players.
He could just buy Minecraft for 30 dollars and start working.
However, from Xu Hao's point of view, this money was not a loss at all.
First of all, Minecraft's total sales had exceeded six million copies.
Xu Hao could get 15 dollars for each copy, which meant that in the ten days since Minecraft was released, he had been able to earn 15 dollars.
Xu Hao had already earned 90 million dollars from it.
Under such circumstances, five million USD was nothing to Xu Hao.
At the same time, the preliminary round, semi-finals, and finals of this competition would last for a month or two.
As long as they could sell 300,000 more copies than usual, they would be able to break even.
However, with such a huge scale, would it be possible to only sell 300,000 more copies than usual?
It was definitely impossible!
At the same time, Xu Hao also knew that this event would be strongly supported by both Youtube and Steam.
All he needed to do was to sign and acknowledge the deduction of five million dollars.
As for the rest, Steam would do it better than him and put in more effort.
After all, if this matter was done well, Xu Hao could only earn a real share of the sales.
Steam was different. It could get a large number of users and even new paying users.
Steam was a listed company, and these data could increase the stock price of a listed company.
Therefore, even if Steam's half of Minecraft's profits included taxes, it would still be a waste.
In the end, after considering all the other factors, Steam would benefit more than Xu Hao if this was done.
There was no need to worry that they would not work hard.
……
As expected, the charm of money was powerful.
On the 26th, Xu Hao and Director Chen boarded the plane to the Dragon Capital to participate in the final match of Qiu Sai.
This event was already in full swing.
The banner ad on the front page of the Youtube had been hanging for three days.
At the same time, a special channel was created on Youtube, called Minecraft.
Moreover, the number of active users in this channel could already be ranked in the top five in the entire station.
More importantly, this operation had caused Minecraft's sales to increase by several times every day.
Not only had they already completed their original plan of selling 10 million copies a month on the first day of the competition's publicity.
After a few days of publicity, they had sold more than 16 million copies.
According to Ding Zhenni's analysis of the data, in the next four to five days, another four million copies would be sold.
It was a sure thing to sell 20 million copies in one go and break the first month sales record in the history of games.
Xu Hao was a little stunned when he heard the result.
With 20 million copies, Xu Hao would get 300 million US dollars. According to the exchange rate of 1:7, he would get 2.1 billion dragon coins.
2.1 billion dragon coins in cash was definitely enough to beat up more than half of the so-called rich people on the list.
Don't look at how many people in the real estate industry were on the rankings.
However, among these people, there were not many who could take out 2.1 billion cash flow.
At the same time, the sales of 20 million copies in a month shocked Xu Hao.
In another time and space, Minecraft's total sales exceeded 150 million.
But that was the sales volume accumulated over ten years.
But now, he had completed one-seventh of it in a month.
This was simply a miracle!
It seemed that channels were really important.
It seemed that the Internet was unprecedentedly powerful for the development of games.
This was a good opportunity!
Xu Hao's family was not short of money, but he thought that in a few days, he would have 2.1 billion in cash.
This made Xu Hao a little confused.
With so much money, even if he didn't exchange it for coins, he would be crushed to death.
No matter what standard of wealth and freedom, Xu Hao had achieved it.
However, Xu Hao did not have any intention of retiring after realizing his freedom of wealth.
He didn't think that he could just buy a yacht and take Gu Qingcheng out fishing all day.
He had many pursuits in life.
Therefore, he began to think about how to use this money to achieve his life goals.
Should they recruit soldiers and buy horses first, or should they accumulate food and build walls?
It was very worrying when there was no money, but when there was a certain amount of money, it was also a little worrying.
