Chapter 424: Output

However, in accordance with the Company Law and other laws and regulations, whether it is a main board or a small and medium-sized board company, directors, supervisors and senior managers are not allowed to transfer their shares of the company within one year from the date of listing of the company's shares and within half a year after resignation.

After the expiration of the one-year lock-up period, if the company intends to buy or sell the company's shares during its tenure, it shall also be reported to the exchange for the record in advance in accordance with the relevant regulations.

Moreover, the Company Law has stricter requirements for the controlling shareholders and actual controllers of companies like Lin Weidong.

The most critical point is that Lin Weidong is not allowed to transfer, custody or repurchase his shares within 3 years of the company's listing.

In other words, even if Century Games is listed now, Lin Weidong has no way to cash out the company's shares, and he must wait for another three years.

After the three-year lifting period has officially passed, Lin Weidong can cash out his original shares, and the proportion cannot exceed 13 in circulation.

Therefore, Lin Weidong also figured out during this period of time, in the next three years, he will mainly devote his time and energy to the Century Game Company, and will not consider investing in other listed companies for the time being.

Because the current funds are too limited, it is useless for Lin Weidong to think too much, it is better to wait for his own funds to be abundant, and then invest in the stocks of high-quality companies such as Apple and Moutai.

March 15, afternoon.

Lin Weidong met with Guo Yihong of IDG Capital at Century Game Company.

After a few words of greeting, Lin Weidong said straight to the point: "Mr. Guo, I plan to launch the international version of Glory of Kings, and I hope to get your support." ”

After thinking for a while, Yihong said calmly: "Lin Dong, if you want to promote the glory of the king to the world, I think you still have to think carefully. ”

"It is undeniable that Honor of Kings is indeed an elephant-level and groundbreaking online game in our country. ”

"But as far as I know, in the past, our Chinese games were launched in Western countries such as Europe and the United States, and they did not receive any enthusiastic responses. ”

"To be honest, I'm worried that our online game will not be adapted to other countries, especially in Europe and the United States, and they may not like our online games made in China. ”

Lin Weidong said with a straight face: "So, in order to let gamers in other countries accept our Glory of Kings, I plan to launch an international version of Glory of Kings." ”

"Or, we can launch the European and American servers of the glory of kings, and even hanbok and so on. ”

Guo Yihong pondered for a while and said: "Lin Dong, your idea is too risky, with all due respect, the glory of the king of the national service does not meet the needs of the overseas market at all." ”

"If you insist on promoting it abroad, you really need to do local commercial distribution overseas. ”

"But," said Guo Yihong paused, and then said: "If the implementation fails, it is very likely to affect our listing plan." ”

Lin Weidong also thought about this problem, and then said: "We can try to do it first, for example, let's make hanbok first to see if we can open up the Korean market." ”

"If we can open up the Korean market, we will expand it to other countries in Asia......"

After listening to Lin Weidong's words, Guo Yihong nodded: "Lin Dong, in fact, I can fully understand your feelings, and I also hope that our Glory of Kings can open the country and go to the world." ”

"However, with our current capabilities, our funds are not enough to support your dream to realize, and to realize this dream, we need enough funds, and we also need a lot of planning and layout. ”

After Guo Yihong left, Lin Weidong didn't speak, and silently lit a cigarette.

In fact, the reason why Lin Weidong is so anxious to promote the Glory of Kings to the international market is mainly because he is afraid that after the launch of the League of Legends, it will hit the influence of the Honor of Kings in China.

Therefore, Lin Weidong doesn't want to sit still, he wants to preemptively launch the glory of kings to the world before the League of Legends is launched.

At this moment, Xu Bo walked in from outside the door and asked, "Lin Dong, how was the chat?"

Lin Weidong sighed and said calmly: "Not yet." ”

Xu Bo said disapprehantly: "If they don't agree, we can find other venture capital companies to raise money for us." ”

Lin Weidong smiled and said, "Don't worry, as long as you are determined, you will definitely be able to talk." ”

Without waiting for Xu Bo to answer, Lin Weidong then asked: "Old Xu, let me ask you, if we really want to launch the international version of Honor of Kings, what do you think?"

Xu Bo thought for a while and said: "Those foreign devils don't know about ancient celebrities such as Li Bai, Liu Bang, and Sun Shangxiang, so if we want to launch an international version of Honor of Kings, we can design heroes such as Spider-Man, Batman, and even Superman!"

Lin Weidong nodded and said calmly: "Your idea is good, it's not difficult to design these heroes, it's rare to win the copyright, I don't know how much it will cost." ”

Xu Bo pondered for a while and said, "Lin Dong, I think we can ignore foreign devils for now, after all, our Asia and Europe and the United States are two completely different cultures. ”

"I think we can expand our scope mainly to South Korea and Japan, and then radiate to those countries in Southeast Asia. ”

"For example, Japan, I heard that those devils like the Three Kingdoms very much, they seem to have an innate feeling for the Three Kingdoms, don't you see that the Three Kingdoms they launched before are quite popular in Japan?"

After listening to Xu Bo's words, Lin Weidong said with relief: "You continue." ”

Xu Bo nodded: "The Three Kingdoms is one thing, and then we can combine with their local game characters, such as Yagami, Kusanagi Kyo......"

After listening to Xu Bo's whimsy, Lin Weidong was also excited.

It's just that Europe and the United States are too far away from us after all, whether it is culture or hell, if we can push the glory of the king to the whole of Asia, it is also a good way.

However, Lin Weidong always felt that the glory of kings must be based on Chinese elements, supplemented by exotic cultures.

Why can League of Legends be popular all over the world, and can be so popular in China, is it because we Chinese people like those European and American heroes?

No, it's because it's fun!

An online game, most importantly, must be fun.

If an online game is not fun, no matter how much you promote it, it is useless.

The next morning.

Lin Weidong called Xu Bo to his office and said straight to the point: "Old Xu, I think your idea is very good, but we don't need to care too much about the culture of other countries. ”

"If we can get the copyright, of course it's better, if not, it's okay, we can penetrate little by little. ”

"We can throw money at the competition, as the saying goes, there must be brave men under the heavy reward, I don't believe that under the temptation of huge bonuses, no one will play our glory of kings!"

Xu Bo smiled and nodded: "Lin Dong, what you said is so right, money can make ghosts grind, the reason why I left NetEase and joined Century Games Company is mainly because you are willing to give money, willing to give shares, no money, you say that I will not follow you." ”

"Moreover, the fact that Honor of Kings can be so popular in our country shows that the playability of our game is still very high, which is our advantage, and we should carry it forward. ”

Three days later, Lin Weidong arranged for representatives to hold talks with Japanese game companies.
