Chapter 437: It's impossible to tell the truth in this life
As a first-person shooter game, the fire of "CrossFire" was like a thunderbolt in the first month of 2007, stirring up the already turbulent Internet.
Since the popularity of "Running Kart" and "Audition" last year, people have begun to realize that this kind of non-RPG online game also has the possibility of becoming popular, and this year's "Crossfire" launched by Yoyo has pushed this type of game to a new climax.
From the beginning of Warcraft, to the Demon Domain, and now Crossfire, the three games launched by Yoyo have been very successful, and the difference is only to earn more and earn less.
Liu Yun looked at Zhao Xudong and said: "The task in the first half of the year is very heavy, and a game will be launched almost every month, so you are also under a lot of pressure, do your best." ”
Zhao Xudong nodded seriously and replied, "I understand, Mr. Liu." For Yoyo, this year is very crucial. ”
Liu Yun was silent for a few seconds and said: "It's very important, if we can win the throne of the Huaxia online game market this year, then this position can be held for at least a few years." ”
He patted Zhao Xudong on the shoulder and whispered: "Xiao Zhao, if everything goes well, I will resign as the general manager of the game company next year and concentrate on the development of the entire group company." ”
Liu Yun just clicked to the point, but Zhao Xudong's eyes lit up, and he heard the meaning of the boss's words.
Once Liu Yun resigned as the general manager of the game company, this position was vacant, and now as the deputy general manager, he is very likely to be the only candidate for this position.
Although the senior management of this kind of company, Youyou will not rule out the possibility of recruiting from outside, but with his understanding of Liu Yun, the trust that those outsiders can gain from the boss is far less than that cultivated by his own company. What's more, he has said so, and it is impossible to be targeted.
"Liu is always a boss who keeps his word and keeps his word. Zhao Xudong muttered silently in his heart.
Liu Yun looked at his slightly excited expression, smiled, and added: "But I just said that the premise is that "everything goes well". That way I can let go with peace of mind. ”
Zhao Xudong understands the meaning of "everything is going well", that is, in 2007, it beat NetEase and Shanda to become the game company with the highest market share.
Is it possible? Quite possibly! There are still 3 games to be launched. Each one is a highly anticipated blockbuster that could turn the gaming market upside down.
At the beginning, the Demon Domain was packaged and sold to Yoyo by Netdragon along with Tianqing Studio, and his life also ushered in a turning point from that moment, this young rich man is really the Bole in his life.
After Zhao Xudong left, Liu Yun walked to the 10th floor of the office building where Yoyo Vacation Network was located.
In the whole Yoyo Group, Yoyo Holidays is a special existence. It has an independent financial department and is only supervised by the group company, while the finance department of the other subsidiaries is unified into the group headquarters. This is also a preparation made by Liu Yun in advance for the relocation of Yoyo Holiday Network to Shanghai one day.
Although the specific date has not yet been set, he understands that day is not far away.
The 6th to 10th floors of the Yoyo Building, with a total of five floors, now all belong to Yoyo Holidays. In more than three years, after two financings, Yoyo Holiday has become the No. 1 OTA website in China.
Since 2007, Xu Ying, CEO of Yoyo Holiday, has cooperated with well-known travel agencies across the country with the slogan of win-win cooperation to accelerate the potential of the tourism market.
At the beginning, Xu Ying felt that the old rival Ctrip might have learned from it, and also went to find some travel agencies to cooperate, not to mention that now that the Spring Festival is approaching, the Spring Festival, which is known as the largest human migration in history, is about to begin, but they found that the other party almost did not make any big moves, just put a few insignificant ticket booking promotions on the homepage of the website, and there is a feeling that the thunder is not loud and the rain is smaller.
She inquired carefully, and it turned out that they had recently been busy preparing for the closed beta of "World of Wonders", purchased a lot of servers, and held some publicity activities in Shanghai.
When Xu Ying saw Liu Yun walk in, she showed her concern.
"Mr. Liu, I have paid special attention. Ctrip has been building momentum for the new game, and the market has been getting a lot of attention, so I'm worried about ......" she said here, hesitating for a moment before stopping.
"Are you worried that this game will become popular and allow Ctrip to accumulate enough funds to pose a threat to Yoyo?" Liu Yun glanced at her and said with a smile.
"Yes, there are concerns about that. ”
"Are you optimistic about the game?"
"I have studied, after all, the previous life of "Miracle World" was "Miracle MU", which was once popular in China, and also single-handedly created the take-off of Jiucheng Company. Anyway, the player base of this game is put there. ”
Liu Yun listened to it, poured a cup of hot water, and took a sip gently.
Xu Ying continued: "Actually, I am a little puzzled why the boss transferred the agency rights of this game to Ctrip. ”
Liu Yun replied: "We have too many games and limited energy. ”
She asked again: "I remember that Mr. Liu talked about two games at the same time, in addition to "Miracle World", there is also a "Dungeons and Warriors". Why not give up on the other one?"
Am I so stupid to give up DNF and leave "World of Miracles" behind?
Liu Yun smiled indifferently: "I originally thought the same way, but Ctrip pointed out that I wanted "Miracle World", so I concentrated on grabbing the agency of another game? ”
From God's point of view, he took advantage of the situation to play a trick that wanted to catch the old and indulge, so that Mr. Liang of Ctrip willingly jumped into this pit. This guy saw that Jiucheng, which was also in Shanghai, and relied on Miracle MU to soar into the sky, so he was emotionally more inclined to its 3D version of "Miracle World", and Yoyo just retreated and chose "Dungeons and Warriors".
Even so, he also bid with the stinky penguin, breaking the agency fee record for a Korean game.
In the face of his subordinates, Liu Yun still carried out the lie to the end.
It is impossible for him to tell the truth, and it is impossible for him to tell the truth in this life. Otherwise, Mr. Liang, who knew the truth, would rush to his office building with a kitchen knife?
"Mr. Liu, we are a little passive. Xu Ying blinked, a little helpless.
"Respond to change with the same, do what we have to do, and leave them alone. Liu Yun pretended to sigh, but his heart was happy.
The next "Miracle MU"? That old Liang has his big dream of spring and autumn.
He realized that this might be a good opportunity, and when he walked out of Xu Ying's office, Liu Yun quietly sent a long message to Li Hui.
