327+328. Make a small plan first

In the end, Zhou Fangyuan could only briefly talk about the matter between himself and Xu Ruxuan, of course, he would never say anything about the specific process, just kidding, you can't make a negotiation meeting into a yellow joke meeting.

But everyone is here, even if he doesn't say anything, everyone guesses it.

"This kind of woman is quite scheming. ”

Brother Ma shook his head and said, he belongs to the kind of careeraholic, he is busy with work, and he will not think about other things. And to be honest, Brother Ma's appearance has always been a problem, and later he became the richest man, of course, no one will talk about his appearance anymore, but when he was just famous, there were still few people on the Internet who commented on his appearance?

So what he has experienced since he was a child, are there still few such people?

Because of this, he has not had much popularity with women since he was a child, so he doesn't seem to care much about women, and he also looks down on women who do certain things for money and profit.

"It's normal to be scheming, there are a few people who don't have scheming now, Xiaoyuan is so good, those women don't rush up when they see him, it's normal, as long as they don't affect Xiaoyuan, it doesn't matter how much they have. ”

Brother Ma also shook his head slightly, but his opinion on this matter was different from Brother Da Ma, he belonged to the more open kind, and Brother Ma seemed a little conservative in this regard.

"Then I still don't think it's good, there are too many women like this, and it will be distracting anyway. And Xiaoyuan is still young, it is the time to grow his body, so he should pay more attention to this aspect. ”

That's a little embarrassing to say.

Although Brother Da Ma definitely had good intentions, and he definitely didn't mean to take the opportunity to preach, but when he said this, it still made Zhou Fangyuan blush a little.

"Let's get down to business......

He can't go on, he's afraid he won't have the face to stay here if he continues.

"Okay, let's get down to business. ”

Brother Xiao Li nodded, and then looked at the other people present.

"Xiaoyuan called me to talk about this matter before, and after thinking about it, I felt that there was something wrong with this matter. Now the mainland is ushering in great development, and all walks of life need talents, but our talent search system is too poor. The existing recruitment websites are too small in scale, and they are still groping forward, and the scope that can be covered is far from enough. In addition, we do need a large number of foreign talents to fill the domestic vacant market, and now that there is such an opportunity, I think we can give it a try. ”

"Of course it's okay to give it a try," Brother Ma said, and then he looked at Mike, "I don't know what kind of attitude the United States has towards such a website, if it's just recruiting talents, of course the United States government won't care, I understand this, but if you open the website to the United States, you can directly establish a channel in the United States...... Can the government of the United States agree?"

"I've already thought about this matter," Mike picked up, "Theoretically, this thing is feasible, after all, it's just a normal business behavior, as the world's largest talent market, the United States will theoretically not interfere with the flow of talents, but now there is a problem, you should all understand that there has always been various competition between our two countries, and the United States has indeed suppressed China in all aspects, so if it is just ordinary talents, then there is no problem." But when it comes to special talents, I think the U.S. government will definitely intervene. ”

"So that's what I'm thinking about, if we want to make our website bigger and stronger, it's not enough to just recruit ordinary people. We must have more high-end, important, special talents to fill our recruitment website, but important talents are important assets in various countries, if it is the flow between Europe and the United States, it may not be affected, but once the talent flows to China...... Hehe, if the government of the United States can watch quietly and not speak, that's the hell. ”

Brother Da Ma had a sneer on his face.

Although he admires the development of the Internet in the United States very much, and his career is inspired by it, his sense of the United States is very ordinary.

"It's definitely impossible to sit idly by, but we don't need to make the company so high-end for the time being," Xiao Li took over, "The development of the company will definitely get stronger and stronger, and there will be more and more talents, as long as we can do a good job in the company, someone will inevitably take the initiative to join the recruitment market, which I don't think I have to worry about." The question I'm more concerned about now is, where is the company registered?"

Whether to do this website or not, everyone has no objection. Because the recruitment website itself is not troublesome, and even if it is not big, it will not cost a few dollars, if it can be bigger, then the benefits will naturally be a lot, so there is no suspense about this problem from the beginning, after Zhou Fangyuan put forward this idea, everyone felt that this website should be done.

What I just said is just whining, and it is a relatively personal meeting, so naturally I will say whatever comes to mind. So the biggest problem now is the specific place where the company is registered. If it is registered in the United States, it is natural that the interference of the United States government can be minimized, but in this way, the company's taxes must also be paid to the United States, and the taxes of the United States have always been relatively heavy.

What's more, once the registered place is the United States, then if the company wants to enter China, it is equivalent to an "outsider", even if the company has Chinese shareholders, but for ordinary people, they are outsiders after all.

But what if it is the mainland? In the future, the obstruction of the United States will inevitably increase greatly, this is certain.

Everyone started discussing again, in short, they had their own reasons, and in the end, Zhou Fangyuan cleared his throat.

"Needless to say, the place of registration is in China, although I also hope to attract more foreign talents for the country, but at present, the website is more important to mobilize domestic talents, if there is more development in the future, we can come forward as a company, the acquisition of a company in the United States as a branch, and as I said before, even if the company is registered in the United States, a large number of foreign export talents, the United States government will not interfere. In the final analysis, the US government will definitely supervise the company, so we might as well register the company directly in the mainland. Moreover, the development speed of the mainland is getting faster and faster, even if you can only eat in this market, the scale of this website in the future will not be too small, there is no need to blindly pursue the foreign talent market, the so-called I am fortunate to lose my life, just follow the trend. ”

Zhou Fangyuan, you said this, and the others suddenly stopped saying anything.

Then everyone began to discuss the specific investment amount.

"I give five million and ask for forty-five percent of the shares. ”

Zhou Fangyuan said his plan.

"Five million, will it be a little less......"

Brother Pony asked.

"Five million is a lot, our website is generally very simple, and there is no need to launch too many servers in the early stage, just enough, and it can be slowly increased in the future. I'll just make it clear, this thing is a move of chess, and if you are idle here, you will develop and grow when you have the opportunity, and there will be many benefits in the future. If you don't have a chance, just let it hang like this, and it won't have much impact on us. Even if we can only provide talent for ourselves in the end, the money is worth it. So it doesn't require how big the scale is, and it's pointless to make it too big now, the resources are wasted, let's use the resources to the most important places, this website, just let it be maintained. ”

As a result of the final discussion, Zhou Fangyuan invested 5 million yuan and owned 45% of the shares. Brother Xiao Li invested 2.5 million yuan and owned 20% of the shares. Mike invested 2 million on behalf of Blizzard, which is 15 percent of the shares. Big Brother Ma and Little Brother Ma each contributed 1.5 million yuan, holding 10% of the shares.

The shares are thus determined, and the next thing is to choose the registration location of the website, and then everyone injects capital to develop the website.

Zhou Fangyuan himself is too lazy to take care of these things, and the two horses now have their own work to do, Mike will return to the United States soon, and he is destined not to stay here for a long time, so the final result of the discussion is that Brother Xiao Li will deal with this matter. He can take charge of it himself, or he can send someone to manage the company, it doesn't matter, anyway, as long as he reports to the shareholders on time and on time, to ensure that the development of the website does not go the wrong way.

After talking about things, everyone had nothing to do, Xiao Ma asked the waiter to serve food and wine, and the group began to eat and drink.

During the banquet, several people were talking, and somehow, the topic fell on Zhou Fangyuan's head again.

"Speaking of which, I really envy Xiaoyuan. ”

Brother Xiao Li said this suddenly, and the others immediately looked at him, including Zhou Fangyuan.

"You may not know that since that e-sports competition, Xiaoyuan has become famous on Hong Kong Island, and I don't know how many people have asked me about him, among them, there are many particularly famous big stars. ”

"Oh, and what's going on? Tell me, who are the stars?"

Brother Xiao Ma became interested and immediately asked.

"I said, can we say something else?"

Zhou Fangyuan said helplessly.

"Of course not," Brother Xiao Li shook his head, "Xiaoyuan, you don't know, my phone has been blown up by people from all walks of life recently, everyone is inquiring about you, but I'm still embarrassed to say anything, you say, you caused me so much trouble, I complain a few words, shouldn't it?"

"It should be, but Brother Li, it's not authentic for you to say that, I can be famous, isn't it mainly because of you? If it weren't for you, the son of the richest man, others would know who I am. ”

Zhou Fangyuan can see clearly, in the final analysis, the threshold of the Li family is too high, many people want to climb but can't climb up, but he is such a little-known mainlander who is so close to the Li family, so it is completely reasonable for those people to be curious.

"No, no, no, Xiaoyuan, you are wrong when you say that, don't you know how famous your distant game is now on Hong Kong Island? You played this hand well, first held the first world e-sports tournament in Asia, the address is on Hong Kong Island, and the stars on the island will definitely pay attention to this matter as soon as possible. At that time, many people who participated in the show asked about you, but they still had the attitude of giving it a try at that time, and they didn't have too many ideas. But when your Plants vs. Zombies comes online, these people are going crazy. You sold so much money in a game, making the distant game company one of the largest game companies in China overnight, and also had a huge reputation around the world. ”

Brother Xiao Li said with a smile.

Before his words landed, Brother Big Ma and Brother Little Ma laughed at the same time. Because Brother Li said this in Mandarin, Mike couldn't understand it, and Brother Ma laughed and said it to him in English, and Mike also laughed out loud.

"I admire you the most in this regard, Zhou, I also hope that there will be female celebrities who take a fancy to me, but it's a pity, I'm too ordinary, I often take the initiative to talk to celebrities, people don't know who I am at all, and they don't care about me at all. ”

Mike said with a smile.

But what he said......

"Do you think I'll believe it?"

Zhou Fangyuan glanced at Mike, "Blizzard is now one of the most famous game companies in the world, and its annual income is several streets away from those stars, you can loosen your mouth casually, there are not a lot of people who want to marry you?

Zhou Fangyuan pretended to be annoyed and said.

His expression also made the others laugh, and the atmosphere in the room was very good.

This meal lasted for a long time, and everyone not only ate, drank, chatted, and discussed things, but it took several hours to finish the meal.

After eating, Zhou Fangyuan went back upstairs with Brother Ma, Brother Xiao Li and Mike, Brother Xiao Ma went back, he drank a little too much today, and he was shaking when he walked.

Back upstairs, Zhou Fangyuan did not rush back to his room, but followed Mike to Mike's room, accompanied by Brother Li. In the previous bet with Brother Xiao Li, Brother Xiao Li lost, so according to the agreement, they will exchange shares. Exchange 15% of Blizzard's shares for 15% of distant games, in equal amounts.

After the exchange, he owns 30% of Blizzard's shares, and Xiao Li Ge owns 15% of the shares of Far Games, this kind of share change, theoretically requires all shareholders to be present, but Blizzard is now Mike has the final say, although his two partners are also shareholders, but the shares are too small, they don't like to participate in the management of the company, they prefer to manage specific projects, or engage in some relatively trivial work, but the management of the entire company, they took the initiative to give Mike.

So Mike can basically decide in one word, and then again, the share exchange between Zhou Fangyuan and Brother Xiao Li, even if Mike doesn't agree, there is no reason to stop it. And why didn't he agree? He already completely admired Zhou Fangyuan, and he saw Zhou Fangyuan's creativity and Zhou Fangyuan's management ability.

Far away games have gone from obscurity to upstart in the gaming industry overnight, which is not something that ordinary people can do.

And Zhou Fangyuan's series of actions, such as the linkage between several companies, as well as the operation of the game, he also saw it in his eyes, plus what Zhou Fangyuan said to him before, he also thought carefully about the suggestions and measures for the plot of the Warcraft series.

He had to admit that Zhou Fangyuan was really a very powerful person, at least he couldn't compare to the other party when he asked himself. So Zhou Fangyuan has more shares in Blizzard, and Mike is acceptable and satisfied. He even felt that it would be good if all the shares sold were taken by Zhou Fangyuan himself, so that he could provide Blizzard with more ideas, which Mike was willing to see.

However, he also knows that his idea may not be realized, because the other shareholder, Brother Li, is not a fool, seeing that Blizzard is such a good company, how can he let go of all the shares? Not to mention that with the launch of the sequel to Warcraft next year, it will inevitably continue to increase the value of the company, and it will be even more impossible to let the other party withdraw at that time, so Mike can only put this idea in his heart.

In Mike's room, in front of Mike, Zhou Fangyuan and Brother Xiao Li signed a share exchange agreement, the agreement is very simple, that is, Zhou Fangyuan exchanged 15% of the shares of the distant game for 15% of the shares of Blizzard Games in Brother Li's hand, the agreement is in triplicate, Zhou Fangyuan, Brother Xiao Li and Mike each have one, of course, there are still many procedures to be done in the follow-up, but there will be someone to handle this matter at that time, so there is no need for Zhou Fangyuan to worry about it.

After all these things were done, Zhou Fangyuan was ready to go back to his room.

It's just that before leaving, he thought about it, and then let Brother Li go first, and he and Mike returned to the living room of the suite.

"Mike, I have an idea now......"

"Speak. ”

"Don't be so serious," Zhou Fangyuan waved his hand, "It's just an idea." I want to ask, how long do you think MMORPG games will be popular?"

"Uh, what do you mean?"

"It's a role-playing game, which is World of Warcraft, which is about to start developing. ”

"However, World of Warcraft has not yet started to develop ......"

"Yes, I know, I'm asking you now, how long do you think this type of game will be popular?"

"This, I don't know ......"

"Ten years!"

Zhou Fangyuan held up a finger.

"Ten years, how do you know ......?"

"Intuition," Zhou Fangyuan said with a smile, "You think, now the game industry can be said to have just developed a certain scale, and your country's game industry is currently the strongest, and large companies are emerging in endlessly." But I conclude that within a decade, the gaming industry will attract more and more capital into it. ”

"This is a good thing, with the addition of large capital, more high-quality games can be born. ”

"But it will also attract some small capital and speculative capital into the market, and then all kinds of small game companies will emerge one after another. Large companies can stick to serious R&D because they have the money and they can afford to wait. But small companies, as well as those speculative capital, they don't care so much, they will only find ways to make quick money, whatever game is popular, they will follow what game, and the market will be completely disrupted. ”

"But what does that have to do with ten years?"

"It's okay, I'll just say it casually, but I think there's an audience for any genre. Nowadays, there are few games on the market, so any game with decent quality can attract a lot of players. But you think, as more and more capital enters this market, there will be more and more game companies, and everyone can't always make the same games, so the types of games will continue to increase, and players will have more and more choices...... When the time comes, role-playing games, which require a lot of time and a lot of energy, will inevitably start to decline. Because people play games just to experience pleasure, what do you think players will choose when other games can provide them with these things and are less time-consuming and labor-intensive than role-playing games?"

"Well, players will be shunted ......"

"yes, players will be diverted, and none of us can guarantee that a game's story will always be so engaging, and the gameplay will never go wrong, so I want to say, Mike, while the World of Warcraft we have planned hasn't even started to work on yet, we have to start thinking about the next big game after World of Warcraft. And don't forget, the plot of Warcraft is the most attractive during this period of time. Once these years have passed and the plot continues to develop, new changes are likely to cause strangeness to players, if everyone is not satisfied with the plot by then...... You know what I'm trying to say, right?"

"They're going to leave the game. ”

"That's right, so we have to look for a new direction, the plot of Warcraft will always end one day, we have to prepare in advance, this time, ten years is the best. The company's development must have a goal, let's set a small goal first, for example, at the end of this year at the latest and the beginning of next year, Warcraft III will be launched, and the medium-term goal is the hairstyle of the World of Warcraft, as well as the production of Warcraft movies, and the long-term goal is another game outside the Warcraft system. It's best to find a way to divert players from Warcraft, of course, it doesn't matter if the diversion fails, even if you start a new world from scratch, but you have to have a plan.

In addition, Interstellar and Dark also have updated plans. Especially interstellar, in fact, interstellar content is very suitable for role-playing development, if you can come out with an online game similar to World of Warcraft, StarCraft, I think there should be a lot of players who will buy it. Of course, I'm just giving an example, not that you have to make an interstellar online game.

In short, after you go back and talk to the two of them about this matter, it is best to set up a special department to analyze the market, analyze the market trend, and make the company's development in the next ten years. ”

Zhou Fangyuan also drank a little too much, and he talked a lot, and he didn't finish talking about it.

Mike could only listen, nodding his head incessantly.

The two talked for another half an hour before Zhou Fangyuan left Mike's room and walked towards his room with false steps. knocked on the door, Xu Ruxuan opened the door from the inside, and before she could speak, she was hugged by Zhou Fangyuan.
