Chapter 18: Penguin's Trick

"In just two weeks, from the launch to the top of the popularity. "God of War" only took two weeks, surpassing our efforts to produce, promote, and operate a mobile game product that cost hundreds of millions of yuan. Why do you say that?", a senior member in the conference room asked.

"Manager Wang, tell me your opinion. ”

A middle-aged man nodded and said, "I have analyzed and investigated the situation of this "God of War of the Wilderness" in detail. It came from a small game company, which may not be as big as a small division of our company. ”

"Its operating investment is also pitiful, and it purely relies on the word-of-mouth publicity of players. Not to mention anything else, it's really amazing, and we don't have a mobile game that can match it!"

"Others can do it, can't we do it?" the senior questioned.

Everyone in the "......" conference room looked at each other, especially the senior leaders in charge of technology.

After a moment of silence, they shook their heads and sighed, "It may not be possible to do it at the moment. ”

Something similar is happening at Penguin Games. On the chicken mobile game, Penguin Games has invested more!

There are six of the same mobile games that have been launched or are about to be launched, all of which are produced by well-known studios within Penguin Games.

They originally planned to use their strong technology and resource advantages to occupy the market under the popularity of this wave of PUBG mobile games.

However, the response is not good, and the current mobile games have not been able to surpass the two of the network one, not only that, but they have actually killed a dark horse, and they have directly topped the mobile game popularity list!

"Why is there so much technical inferiority, and shouldn't we be the most technologically advanced company in the world?" the Penguin executives questioned.

When it comes to the rest, Penguin doesn't dare to claim the number one, but when it comes to gaming, they're already the best in the world — at least when it comes to making money.

The crowd remained silent, and someone said, "This Ares of War is really not picky, and the most surprising thing is that it was made by a small company of less than twenty people!

Others were also puzzled and said: "Yes, we make a copycat, no, it's an original mobile game, it takes a team of 100 people, and the production and polishing can't reach such a point, how did they do it?"

"A small company with less than twenty people?" heard this, and the eyes of a senior executive lit up.

"Hold a meeting right now to discuss the acquisition of this small company!"

"yes, buy them!

When I think of mobile games, the executives of Penguin Games have a smile on their faces. Penguin has a lot of money, and if you see a good one, you can buy it directly!

No matter how good the opponent is, it can't stop their money bombardment! Before Blue Hole Games relied on "PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds: Battle Royale" to resist the acquisition of Penguins, and later they were not acquired by Penguin and other scattered shares, forcing them to give up their agents?

This is an era of big fish eating small fish, as a giant beast in the capital market, Penguin Games has the confidence to easily crush small shrimp like Hongxin Game.

……

Hongxin Game Company, with the top of the mobile game popularity list for a week, has made many players, media or related companies pay attention to this little-known small company.

Game media: "God of War of the Wild has reached the top of popularity for a week, and player comments: the most conscientious mobile game ever!"

"The chicken mobile game ushered in the pinnacle, did you eat chicken today?"

"Big production from a small company, this game is on fire!"

On some live broadcast platforms, there are also more live broadcast channels exclusive to "God of War", and some anchors who have seized the opportunity have gained a lot of popularity.

Enterprises with a keen sense of smell have also found Hongxin Game Company to seek cooperation.

The whole company is busy, but everyone is happy. Because this means "a wide range of financial resources"! Lu Zixin has already spoken, and when he is done, everyone will have a big red envelope.

The channel providers, advertisers, etc. of the game platform are here to send them money. And they are also stepping up the development of various value-added services, such as virtual products such as changing the appearance of characters and props with money.

Lu Zixin himself is also very busy, and he doesn't even have time for the water group.

"This is Hongxin Games?" At the door of Hongxin Games, three business representatives frowned and looked at the company.

They all came to negotiate business with Penguin Games, and the main purpose was to buy "Hongxin Games". They thought that the game company that could make "God of War" would not be so small.

Now that I look at it, it's really unsightly! This company doesn't have as many employees as their cleaners!

"I'm relieved to see that. One of them smiled, "It's hard to have a long-term vision for such a small company, as long as we use a little money to lure, it's easy to buy or buy shares!"

"Hmm. The other two nodded approvingly.

They went in to visit, first of all, to see Liu Tong.

"Lao Liu, do you work in this company?" One of them actually knew Liu Tong, who was an elite in the industry circle and had crossed paths before.

"Oh, it's actually Manager Kong, a rare guest, a rare guest!" Liu Tong hurriedly shook hands with him, this Kong Lin is a high-level of Penguin Games, and he has a lot of right to speak.

The other two have lower positions than him. Kong Lin is the main person in charge of this business.

After greeting again, Kong Lin said: "Lao Liu, you said that you didn't tell me when you left your job." Come and work at us at Penguin Games! The salary and benefits are definitely better than you in any other company!"

Liu Tong shook his head and smiled: "Your company is big, I have a small ability, I'm afraid I can't stay." That's good. ”

"Hey, that's Qu Cai!" Kong Lin said, "Here, it's too small!"

"It's a small company, but it has a lot of potential, and we can grow it very quickly. Liu Tong said politely.

"The potential is really good. Kong Lin nodded, "This time we are here to talk about this matter." ”

He revealed his intention slightly, and Liu Tong suddenly felt a little worried in his heart.

This kind of thing didn't happen a few days ago, "God of War" is so hot, naturally representatives of large companies want to come over and buy it, but they are all rejected.

But this time it's a penguin game, a big boss with deep pockets. They want to buy a small company, and it's a no-brainer.

He only now has very high expectations for the future of Hongxin Games, and he really doesn't want to be acquired by Penguin Games and become one of their game studios.

But if the other party's bid is too high, Lu Zixin can't resist the temptation, then it will be troublesome.

"Wait a minute, I'll go and tell the boss. Liu Tong said.
