Chapter 206: Complete Surrender
Now what Dai Yunfei is most worried about is that the results after the release of "Mixed Yuan Swordsman" are not as expected, which makes the funds invested in advance go down the drain.
After all, as Li Feng said, the protection of intellectual property rights in the domestic market is still in its infancy, and there are not many users who buy genuine games.
Although Dai Yunfei's family conditions are quite superior, this year, his father has invested nearly 200,000 yuan in his game studio, but if this game is not successful, my father's investment may also be tightened.
As a result, Dai Yunfei's financial pressure will further increase, even to the extent that the studio may face dissolution, which makes him very anxious recently.
But the development of online games is completely different, and there is no piracy problem in online games today, and they do not rely on the sale of discs to make a profit. After the 1.0 version of the game is put into operation, it can be upgraded while operating, and a game can be operated for many years.
The real problem with online games is operation, which requires a lot of investment upfront.
At the current rate, if you want to accumulate two million funds to invest in online games, I am afraid that the cycle is about four or five years, but the development of this industry is changing with each passing day, and new technologies are constantly emerging, not to mention delaying it for four or five years, even if it is four or five months late, it may be completely different.
Therefore, if you can get financing as soon as possible and fully invest in the development and operation of online games, you may be able to recoup funds in a very short period of time and grow rapidly.
The Internet industry pays attention to the word "fast", and only fast can reflect the effect of anything, otherwise even if the level is high and the technology is strong, there will be no store in this village.
Thinking of this, Dai Yunfei also knew that meeting Li Feng was a major opportunity in his life, and if he could seize this opportunity, maybe he would be able to achieve a bigger and more brilliant career.
Therefore, even if Li Feng is made a major shareholder, he is only a small shareholder, and he must make this financing go smoothly.
"Senior Brother Li Feng, if you can really provide us with two million funds, then our team is willing to keep only 30% of the equity. Dai Yunfei gritted his teeth and said, ""Mixed Yuan Swordsman has come to an end, I think we will immediately devote ourselves to the development process of online games, what do you think?"
Only retains 30% of the equity, for Dai Yunfei, this statement is indeed not easy, after all, this is the team he put up single-handedly.
However, Li Feng wants to invest 2 million, which is not a small amount in 2002.
"Senior Dai, although you have fully demonstrated your sincerity, the capital is not a living Lei Feng, not here to offer love. As a small studio that doesn't have any qualifications in the market, my offer is two million for 75% equity, which is already the maximum discount, and we won't talk about it anymore. Li Feng said, "As for the specific operation details, I can give a little discount." I can promise to pay you 200,000 R&D expenses first, and your team will complete a decent test version within a month, and if the results are satisfactory, the remaining 1.8 million will arrive on the same day. ”
Li Feng's words were very capable, without the slightest drag, and there was no room for argumentation, and after listening to it, the people present felt that they could only do what Li Feng wanted, either to make a deal or not to make a deal.
This extreme professionalism and self-confidence made everyone look up to Li Feng a little, including Zhou Qingqing.
For a start-up company that does not have enough qualifications, there is very little say in the capital market. If Li Feng didn't know that Mixed Yuan Studio had indeed made some achievements back then, and finally became a second-tier game company in China, I am afraid that he would not even invest one million.
To start an online game project, judging from the current situation, two million funds are indispensable, and investing two million is obviously a loss of controlling stake for such a start-up.
Li Feng's attitude is very clear, two million in exchange for three-quarters of the equity of the mixed yuan game studio, which is already the maximum. There can be no more concessions.
He can see that Dai Yunfei is eager to succeed and does not care about the actual control of the company, and online games, as a sunrise industry, do have good development prospects.
In 2002, with the popularization of the Internet in China, the number of Internet users is growing rapidly, especially the group around 20 years old, which is the main force for the growth of the total number of Internet users.
Once this group of people has access to the Internet, playing online games is one of the important needs.
Therefore, engaging in online games at this point in time is undoubtedly a huge outlet.
One hot dish after another was served on the table, but everyone was not attracted by the aroma of the dish, but was shocked by Li Feng's generosity.
This kind of firm and resolute negotiation attitude made Dai Yunfei dare not say anything.
If he can get this investment, for Dai Yunfei, he will be able to immediately set up a game company and embark on the standard of corporatized operation.
This is very important to him, and even determines his future destiny.
Therefore, even if he can only become a minority shareholder, as long as he is still the founder of the company, this can accumulate strong capital for his future development, after all, no college student in China can start a game company during his studies.
This also helped him a lot in his pursuit of Zhou Qingqing, so today he had to get Li Feng's investment no matter what.
"Okay, Li Feng, I agree to all your conditions. Dai Yunfei thought for a while and said.
"Okay, on behalf of Vanguard Fund Company, I will sign a letter of intent with you tomorrow, and within three days, the first 200,000 yuan will be received. Li Feng said, "Although we have become the majority shareholder of the hybrid game, we will not interfere in the specific things of the hybrid game, but in the strategic direction, we have the right to control, and we will reserve the right of veto on any major decisions made by the hybrid game out of the protection of our own equity interests." ”
Dai Yunfei nodded and did not object. Since most of the equity has been sold, of course, there is a psychological preparation for this. His intentions are very firm, what he wants at the moment is face, as for how Lizi is, who has the final say, this is not the most important thing.
The waiter in a cheongsam walked in and served a plate of food, and the aroma on the large round table finally caught everyone's attention.
