Volume 1 Cha Classmate Boy Chapter 292 This game is poisonous!

Next chapter

This morning, a considerable number of people went to work with panda eyes, and Happy Farm reached nearly 2 million users overnight, including a considerable number of Internet workers.

All the Internet peers have the knowledge to try Happy Farm with the mentality of research and understanding, but what they didn't expect is that this game is so easy to indulge in, the cartoon farm painting style, the childish vegetable planting and stealing vegetable gameplay seem to have a strong brainwashing ability, once you play in, you don't know what purpose you are here with, there is only one thought in your mind: "I want to steal vegetables! You guys are not allowed to steal my vegetables!"

Li Mu knows very well in his heart that the popularity of Happy Farm has not really begun, the most awesome stage of this game is when users establish a huge network of contacts, there are many forty or fifty-year-old uncles and aunts in the news back then, and there are no shortage of uncles and aunts who have to set alarm clocks to get up at night to steal and collect vegetables, and there is no shortage of girlfriends who blame their boyfriends for not helping them collect vegetables in time and break up, and even the most interesting thing is that the subordinates steal the boss's dishes and are fired for excuses......

In short, this game is quite magical, and in the coming months, there will be even more miracles.

Mr. Li is addicted, Tan Yaocheng is addicted, and Baidu's technical talents are addicted, and similar situations have occurred in almost every Internet company in China.

Even, when many employees arrive at the company, they will quietly open the Happy Farm, go in from time to time to steal a vegetable or something, and indulge in a star-studded index.

Mr. Li found his assistant and asked him to notify the senior management to hold a meeting ten minutes later, but what he didn't expect was that half of the fixed size of eight senior managers had not yet arrived!

This is really a bit unexpected, the company is in a stage of rapid development, under normal circumstances. Top management will not arrive so late.

Subsequently, the assistant gave feedback again: "Today, a small half of the people in the company's technical department are late, and these employees have already arrived. The mental state seems to be a little unpleasant, as if I stayed up late last night. ”

Mr. Li couldn't help frowning. Staying up late en masse? Could it be that the rest of the company is also having fun on the farm?

Thinking that he was late because he was playing too late at the Happy Farm, Mr. Li felt in his heart that this was really a little embarrassing!

After waiting for a few minutes, Tan Yaocheng hurried to the company, and as soon as he arrived at the office, he listened to the report of his subordinates, saying that Mr. Li had found him, he hurriedly dropped his bag and rushed to Mr. Li's office, and said apologetically as soon as he entered the door: "I'm sorry Mr. Li." Overslept. ”

Mr. Li looked at him and said, "Overslept?" I think you were too late last night, right?"

Tan Yaocheng smiled awkwardly and said, "It's a little late to play, but it's mainly about research and study." ”

Mr. Li didn't care, and said with a smile: "I also played late yesterday, so I played that happy farm, which is indeed a very innovative and thoughtful game." ”

Tan Yaocheng nodded and said, "Yes, I have been studying this game last night, and the more I dig deeper, the more I think this game is amazing." What a genius idea, who would have thought that such a mentally retarded, simple game could be played so quickly. It's addictive. ”

Mr. Li looked at Tan Yaocheng's obvious dark circles and asked curiously: "Old Tan, if you were asked to evaluate this game objectively, what do you think of this game?"

Tan Yaocheng thought about it and said seriously: "Damn, this game is poisonous!"

"Poisonous?" Mr. Li frowned.

Tan Yaocheng said: "It's like an addictive drug*, which makes people want to stop playing, and it always has a latent energy that forces you to keep focusing and focusing, if you harvest late." Most of your crops will be stolen if you plant late. Your progress in leveling up will be slower than that of your friends, and your ranking in the Friends Rankings will continue to decline. If you don't steal vegetables and help out at any time, you will be slower than others in terms of experience, gold and items, so the oppression of competition is always there, and the motivation to push you forward is also quite abundant, and it is always poisonous, and you can't stop at all!"

After listening to this, Mr. Li sighed: "I feel the same as you, this game seems to have magic, and it is difficult to get rid of its appeal." ”

After saying this, Mr. Li shook his head helplessly: "Li Mu, this kid is not simple, it's really not simple, judging from the fact that he released this game, he dug a hole for us early, this game is the key to the take-off of the post bar, he deceived us out in advance, and it was clear that he didn't want to take us to play." ”

"yes, not kind. Tan Yaocheng also smacked his lips again and again: "This game is estimated to be popular all over the Internet soon, and when the time comes, I don't know how much Makino Technology's valuation can reach." ”

Mr. Li said: "It depends on what they are preparing to do with this game, the profitability of the game itself should not be too strong, and the most important thing is how it is transformed." ”

Tan Yaocheng asked, "Then what do you think is Li Mu's next development direction?"

Mr. Li shook his head: "I don't know, I can't guess, Li Mu's mind is full of whimsy and conspiracy, and ordinary people really can't figure him out." ”

Tan Yaocheng said: "If this game is completely popular, the number of users of Tieba will definitely rise again, and this kid may become the most capable of controlling users among domestic Internet people." ”

Mr. Li said approvingly: "He is very good at manipulating others, especially users, and his platform has a very strong ability to imperceptibly assimilate users." ”

"Why don't we also have a meeting with people from the technical department and ask them to evaluate the time and cost of developing a game of the same type, and we can also integrate the game on the search engine," Tan said. ”

Mr. Li said with a depressed expression: "The viscosity of our products is too poor, even the registered users are pitiful, the development of this kind of game is simple, it is too difficult to do, in front of the post bar, it is like a grasshopper shaking a tree, not only has no practical significance, but will be infamy, you also know how Li Mu treats competitors, if you pirate and imitate his way, can you still have a good way?"

Tan Yaocheng nodded, and sighed a little embarrassed, if the company grabbed Makino Technology, then the five million that invested in Li Mu at the beginning would be the most successful investment in the company's history, and there was no one, if the game of Happy Farm worked properly. At least it can add more than 200 million yuan to the valuation of Tieba, and when the time comes, Makino Technology can easily be valued at more than 500 million. You must know that when the company invested in Makino Technology, it valued him at only 50 million. That's a tenfold difference! Count on your fingers and count how many months have passed?

After thinking about it carefully, Tan Yaocheng said: "Li Mu deceived us out at the beginning, it is estimated that he wanted to buy low and sell high, the original valuation of 50 million made us enter ten points, it is estimated that he is a little unbalanced in his heart, and wants to clear out our ten points and then sell them at a high price, or let's communicate with Li Mu again and explore the situation." If we want to invest in Muye Technology's B round, what is Li Mu's ideal valuation? ”

Mr. Li dragged his chin and thought for a long time, since he realized that he was pitted by Li Mu, he has been hurting the 10% of the sticker shares that he let go, if there is a chance, of course he wants to re-invest in Makino Technology, and now Makino Technology will usher in a wave of upward momentum, if you really want to buy a ticket to get on the bus again, you have to hurry up.

So Mr. Li said to Tan Yaocheng: "You go and organize the company's senior management and technical personnel first, and then hold a meeting in the conference room in ten minutes." I'll give Li Mu a call. ”

Tan Yaocheng said: "Okay, I'll organize a meeting first." ”

When Tan Yaocheng went out, Mr. Li took out his mobile phone and called Li Mu.

Received a call from Mr. Li. Li Mu was not curious at all, and as soon as he came up, he greeted me and asked, "Why do you have time to call me?"

Mr. Li smiled: "I called to congratulate you, you have made such a good game as Happy Farm, it seems that no one can stop the rise of Tieba." ”

Li Mu said humbly: "You are exalting me too much, I am just a casual and interesting little game, and I haven't even found a profit model." ”

Mr. Li said: "Also, in terms of profit margins, your game still can't compare with the legendary end game." Their second card gets more than 30 yuan a month. ”

As he spoke, Mr. Li suddenly thought of a question. He said: "Why don't you sell fertilizer on Happy Farm, just that ordinary fertilizer." I'll get a hundred for a dollar and a pack. ”

Li Mu smiled: "You want to kill me, I just started to charge, buy props, isn't this pushing users out of the door? Don't say that I'm not ready to sell game props now, even if I sell them, I have to wait at least a month later, during this period of time, the most important task for Makino Technology is to raise users." ”

Mr. Li said with a little embarrassment: "I'm just joking with you, your game is really fun, and the props are also very attractive. ”

Li Mu said: "Then dare to be kind, when we really launch paid props, I will be the first to notify you." ”

Mr. Li saw that the politeness was almost over, so he laughed and turned the topic to the point he really wanted to talk about: "By the way, Li Mu, you should be short of money now, right? Is there a plan for the B round? Do you want us to continue the frontier, and I will lead the B round of Muye Technology."

Li Mu said with a smile: "I haven't considered the B round for the time being, and when I start thinking about the B round, I will definitely think about it seriously." ”

Mr. Li heard that this was Li Mu's kind words, and he didn't say anything more about the same polite sentences.

What Li Mu didn't expect was that in the following time, his phone was almost blown up by people from all walks of life.

Xu Jiaming called to say hello, according to him, this game only took ten hours, has become a phenomenon of storage, all Yanjing's capital companies are meeting today to discuss the impact of this game on the valuation of Makino Technology, and for the future of this game on the overall impact of Makino Technology, more and more venture capital companies are interested in Makino Technology, and began to look for relationships everywhere, so as to establish contact with Makino Technology.

Li Mu felt big after hearing this, and now he is not ready to face all kinds of capital and conduct various negotiations, not to mention, he already has an idea in his heart to pull Chen Ze in to be the backer of Muye Technology, and the B round has not yet reached the time when he can openly negotiate financing with venture capital institutions in the whole society.

So, Li Mu said to Xu Jiaming: "Let's have a meal together in two days, doesn't your Mingcheng Capital want to invest in Muye Technology, let's talk about this matter in detail." ”

Xu Jiaming was very excited after hearing this, and blurted out: "You can set the specific time, I am free at any time!"

Li Mu said: "I've been a little busy in the past two days, and I'll contact you in the next few days." ”

Xu Jiaming immediately said: "No problem, I'll wait for your news." ”

After hanging up Xu Jiaming's phone, another call came in, and it was a woman who called, and she introduced herself first: "Hello Mr. Li, I am Linda Wu, the investment manager of Red Shirt Capital Huaxia Region, I want to make an appointment with you and invite you to have a meal and chat, I wonder if you have time?"

Li Mu didn't expect that even an international limelight company like the Red Shirt would focus on Makino Technology, and he was surprised, but he said: "I'm sorry, I'm very busy these days, let's talk about it during this busy time." ”

sent such a well-known venture capital institution, and then another phone call came, and the investment person in charge of Gaosheng also wanted to ask Li Mu to meet, but Li Mu refused for the same reason.

One morning, Li Mu received calls from at least eight well-known venture capital firms at home and abroad, all of whom had the same purpose: to meet Li Mu and talk about capital cooperation.

But Li Mu was not moved at all, he knew too well the routines of these veteran venture capitalists, if they came in, they would definitely make some demon moths, or find a way to increase the shareholding ratio and dilute the rights of major shareholders, or they wanted to sell the company at a satisfactory price after two or three years, and then cash out and leave, so Li Mu decided not to cooperate with these old venture capitalists when he was not strong enough.

……

In the afternoon, Li Mu's phone was still in a state of being blown up.

People from many Internet companies don't know where to get their own phones, some people call almost familiarly, some people call to seek various cooperation, and some people even directly seek authorization from Happy Farm.

Lianzhong saw the super viscosity of the game Happy Farm, so when Happy Farm was launched less than 15 hours ago, it made up its mind to transplant it to its own platform.

The relevant person in charge found Li Mu's contact information, called Li Mu directly, and even issued an authorization fee of more than 500,000 yuan on the phone, although it seems that it is not much, but in this era, the price of more than 500,000 yuan is already very amazing.

Li Mu directly rejected the other party's request on the phone, and his wording was very direct: "Makino Technology is not considering the authorization to export Happy Farm for the time being." (To be continued.) )
