Life is Easier If You're Handsome novel Chapter 165

Choi Seokho doesn’t know much about games.

Nor does he understand the intricacies of how the gaming ecosystem works.

However, he was well-versed in understanding business on a general level.

"...The price of Golden Resolution is 55,000 won."

And on the first day alone, it sold 50,000 copies.

"Roughly calculating... after deducting taxes and other fees...?"

Steam fees, corporate taxes, local income taxes, value-added tax.

After deducting everything here and there.

"...It made around 1.3 billion won in just one day?"

Moreover, upon further investigation, he learned that games generally sell the least on their first day.

It was only natural.

Businesses rarely do well the moment they open.

"So, roughly... even if it sells ten times more, that’s 13 billion?"

?!

Choi Seokho jumped to his feet.

"This... this is huge, isn’t it?"

If Golden Resolution turned out to be a massive hit,

Kim Donghu, as the largest investor, would naturally receive enormous dividends.

In other words—

"Donghu... can he actually see the future or something?"

Kim Donghu had essentially trusted his instincts and made a massive fortune in one go.

In fact, calling him the "largest investor" was an amusing understatement.

A 100% share.

While technically, Donghu’s personal assets and Veritas’ assets were mixed,

"Veritas practically is Donghu, anyway."

Even considering such complicated factors, it was an overwhelmingly profitable situation.

"But did they really make it that well?"

As Choi Seokho thought about Donghu’s ever-growing fortune, he decided to check what had made the game sell like wildfire.

Click.

The moment he scrolled down, the first thing he saw was the evaluation: "Overwhelmingly Positive."

"That must mean it’s incredible, right?"

Guessing the meaning of the words, he examined the reviews one by one.

Eventually, Seokho reached one conclusion.

"I guess I’ll have to try it to understand?"

That day.

"...Is my chick underperforming? Why is it dying to even the mobs?"

Choi Seokho realized how utterly talentless he was at gaming.
