Wang Yi said, "That's easy. The Wang's Game project should have broken even by now, right?"
Given how popular Wang's Game was, it should have broken even long ago. But the investment was enormous—it was a high-quality production that had cost over ten billion dollars.
When Wang Yi left China, the game had been out for just over a month and had sold more than fifteen million headsets.
