From what I read, I think the original is saga of hero China version, the wowan365 website, they resell to many other chinese companies, and then start to resell it internationally, to taiwan, thailand, indonesia, europe, USA, etc. This is what I found from google :
I spoke to Hayden Eastwood, CFO of Galleon Holdings today. Below is my recollection of our telephone conversation which lasted approximately 15 minutes. I'm sure he won't mind me posting the contents of the conversation as there is no price sensitive information. However, it does clarify a few issues which some people have been debating on this board.
Galleon work very closely with the game developer, but do not own or have controlling interest in the game developer. They own the exclusive rights to distribute Saga of hero in China and a number of other countries including Malaysia and Singapore but not all countries, for example, USA. They own the UK website yipeegame.com which just launched.
Interestingly, I asked Hayden to clarify the financial benefit that Galleon derive from their relationship with the developer and their games operation. He said that gross margins were in the region of 25-30%.
For "God Quit" (bad translation - Hayden mentioned another name but can't remember), they approached the developer to make it for them and own the game completely. He mentioned that their future strategy would include games that are owned entirely by Galleon, and ones that are licensed from the developer. They have been very encouraged by the market response to all of their upcoming games. He acknowledged that at least one of them was receiving considerably more interest than Saga of Hero did. I mentioned that one game had been listed as one of the top 5 most anticipated games in China. He acknowledged that there had been considerable interest in their upcoming games.
