CHAPTER XX

After more than a month of revisions, the operator still believes that it does not meet the requirements of the public beta. Lin Junnan held several meetings in a row, but could not find an effective improvement plan, the key of which is that it is difficult to reach an agreement on the coordination between the artist and the planner. For this reason, he had to bring Zheng Qi, Lu Jianfeng and Xu Youhua to his office to discuss a solution to the problem.

"I think our improvement in art has fully reached the operator's standards," Xu Youhua said, "Jianfeng has taken out all his unique skills!

Lin Junnan asked Zheng Qi's opinion, Zheng Qi did not deny Xu Youhua's opinion, and also believed that the problem was mainly in planning, and admitted that the coordination between himself and the artist was not enough.

"I asked Mr. Sun to be the project director of 'Explorer,'" Xu Youhua said loudly, "Mr. Sun has led the team at Pangolin, and he has always been in coordination with the operator, so the company should let him take the lead and be responsible for the pre-launch work of the game." Speaking of this, he glanced at Zheng Qi and added, "Mr. Zheng, please don't have any ideas, I made this suggestion purely for the benefit of the company, please forgive me!"

Zheng Qi didn't expect Xu Youhua to take him like this, and he couldn't object, so he had to look at Lin Junnan to see what the latter said.

Lin Junnan listened to what Xu Youhua said, and thought to himself how this person who was still hypocritical a few days ago seemed to have suddenly changed, and he could actually say a few good words for Lu Jianfeng! It's just that he felt that Xu Youhua's suggestion was a bit abrupt, even if it was for the sake of the overall situation, he should save some face for Zheng Qi.

"Zheng Qi, what do you think?" Lin Junnan felt that he should listen to Zheng Qi's opinion first.

"I don't care! Since the reason is mine, as long as I can let the 'Explorer' go on the market as soon as possible, I am willing to give way!" It's just ......" At this time, Zheng Qi secretly regretted it - since he had long known that Xu Youhua was wooing Sun Kai, why didn't he tell Lin Junnan at that time!"Is it true that Mr. Sun can turn the situation around, please weigh it!" He added.

Lin Junnan turned his gaze to Lu Jianfeng: "What about you? Jianfeng." ”

Lu Jianfeng looked at Zheng Qi and Xu Youhua, and said vaguely: "Maybe Director Xu's suggestion can be tried." ”

Lin Junnan thought for a while and said, "Jianfeng and Youhua, you can go and get busy, Zheng Qi stays." ”

After Lu Jianfeng and Xu Youhua went out, Lin Junnan closed the door and stood face to face with Zheng Qi.

"I want to hear your true attitude!" Lin Junnan said.

"Do you think you know Sun Kai well enough?" Zheng Qi asked rhetorically.

"What do you mean?"

"I'm not a cautious person, but in today's situation, I'm really worried that you'll look at me like that!" Zheng Qi looked helpless. "I didn't have a good impression of Sun Kai before he entered Lezhi, you know this very well. The problem now is that because I didn't do my job well and affected the progress of the project, it would definitely be unreasonable for me to oppose Sun Kai taking over the 'explorer' today. Therefore, you can only rely on your own judgment of this matter and Sun Kai to make a decision!"

"Have you admitted that something is wrong with your work? I wonder if you have the confidence to turn things around if you continue to take the lead?"

"I can't guarantee it. They said it was a problem with planning, but what I learned was a problem with art. I discussed this with Jianfeng, but today Jianfeng also thinks that the art is fine, so it's hard for me to say!"

"So, do you think it would be effective if you let Sun Kai take the lead? No matter what you thought of him in the past, I just want you to look at this issue from a professional point of view. ”

"Perhaps...... You try it first. Zheng Qi was a little insincere.

That evening, Lin Junnan convened a meeting of project members and invited Sun Kai to the meeting. Lin Junnan announced to everyone at the meeting: From now on, Sun Kai will be fully responsible for coordinating the internal testing and improvement of the "Explorer" game. It is required that everyone must unite and assist and cooperate closely to strive for the official listing before the end of the year.

Lin Junnan also told everyone two news: Beijing Grandi Capital is interested in investing in Lezhi and has asked him to go to Beijing to meet; in addition, a Japanese animation company has also sent him a business invitation letter, ready to cooperate with Lezhi on the adaptation of a famous animation.

Lin Junnan finally explained that during his business trip to Beijing and Japan, the company's daily administrative affairs were in charge of Qianqian, and other matters would be decided when he returned.

After Lin Junnan arrived in Beijing on the earliest flight, he immediately transferred to the subway, rushed to the Oriental Plaza on Chang'an Avenue before noon, and met a representative of Grandi Capital in a western restaurant in the underground mall.

The other party came with a man and a woman. The man's name is Yu Xiaojun, he looks to be thirty-seven or eight years old, tall, with a jacket, jeans, and casual leather shoes, which are both casual and fashionable; Yu Xiaojun was followed by a woman in her twenties with a delicate face, a plump figure, and heavy makeup, her name was Concubine Xie Ya, and she was his assistant.

While they were eating, they exchanged ideas about Grandi's investment in Lezhi.

Lin Junnan soon discovered that Yu Xiaojun was a very straightforward person. With an investment of 10 million, he seems to have made a decision without even blinking an eyelid. However, on the subject of investment, the two had a small disagreement: Yu Xiaojun asked for a 30% stake in Lezhi, while Lin Junnan insisted on spun off the "Explorer" project, and he emphasized that the rights and interests of the "Explorer" project should belong to Lezhi's old shareholders and project team.

"We are all here for our own shareholders to be more serious!" Yu Xiaojun's tone was very calm, but it brought an invisible suppression to Lin Junnan. "Mr. Lin should know that Grandi has already given a high premium!"

To tell the truth, Lin Junnan's heart was also shaken: the original angel investment was only 3 million, and now Grandi can take out 10 million yuan at once, what can't he do? ! But he had made a promise to the other party when he introduced angel investment before, that is, the income of the "Explorer" project will not be used as a dividend for new shareholders after the A round of financing. He could not break that promise under any circumstances.

"Actually, I also hope that Lezhi will raise funds quickly. "Frankly speaking, we will be able to get the rights to adapt several popular Japanese anime right away, and as long as we have the funds, we can start developing them immediately." However, I can't break my promise to angel investors. I beg your pardon for having to abide by professional ethics in this regard. Mr. Yu might as well think about it from another angle: I, Lin Junnan, can protect the interests of the old shareholders here today, and I will be able to protect the interests of your Grandi Capital anywhere in the future!

Yu Xiaojun seemed to be persuaded by Lin Junnan, his eyes rolled, and he said helplessly: "Grandi Capital's investment in Lezhi was originally a decision made based on the expectation of your 'Explorer' project. If we want to strip away the benefits of the 'Explorer', then we will have to re-evaluate Lezhi and need you to provide new information. I'd like to go to Lezhi later this month, is that okay?"

"No problem!Please arrange a time to visit Shenzhen as soon as possible, we are looking forward to your visit. ”

"Also, we'd better set a reference date. Yu Xiaojun thought for a while and said, "I think it's October 31st, there are still more than half a month to go." Before the base date, you have to divest the Explorer's upfront investment, the financial adjustments must be in place, and the business plan for the new project must be developed, which will be the reference elements of Grandi Capital's investment decision. I went to Shenzhen with Yafei on the 28th and returned to Beijing on the 31st. As long as the business plan you provide meets our requirements, I can sign an investment agreement with you immediately. What do you see?"

Lin Junnan hesitated. Before coming to Beijing, he had already informed the Japanese company to go to Tokyo at the end of the month to negotiate animation copyright matters, but the other party has not yet officially confirmed the date of the talks. He feared that there would be a conflict in timing.

"At the end of this month, it should be possible...... I'll arrange it when I get back. ”

"Please Mr. Lin must arrange the time. Yu Xiaojun dragged his voice and said, "I may only be free for a few days at the end of the month." After returning from Shenzhen, I will go to North America and Europe to participate in several exchange activities, and I am afraid that I will not return to China until mid-December. ”

"Okay, just according to your time!" Lin Junnan said.

At the end of the business meal, Lin Junnan took out his wallet and was about to swipe the card, but was stopped by Yu Xiaojun reaching out.

"Mr. Lin, you are a guest, and I should pay for this meal. Yu Xiaojun said, motioning for Concubine Xie Yafei to pay. Then the corner of his eye fell on a photo in Lin Junnan's wallet.

"That's Mr. Lin's girlfriend, right?"

"yes. She also works at Lezhi. ”

"Oh, it looks like she's your manager!" Yu Xiaojun quipped.
