Miss Chen: At this time it is far greater in the US.
Mr.Green: Are you planing on opening an office in the US?
Miss Chen: I donot think so, I think I will license the game.
Mr.Green: You want an US firm to publish the game in the States?
Miss Chen: It is too expensive for us to establish a presence in the US,
Mr.Green: But if you do, your profits will be greater in the long run.
Miss Chen: My company is small and short on capital.
Mr.Green: So licensing is a relatively inexpensive way to enter a market.
Miss Chen: We`ll get a smaller reture on each sale, but our risk will be less.
Mr.Green: Licensing will also help you protecting your product.
