The day after Zhou Shi left Yao Xiaoguan, he received a call from him.

"Do you really invest $1,000 in game development?" asked Yao

"If I don't do what I agreed, you can leave at any time and ask for 1 million in compensation. I guess my sincerity is good, I don't believe there are other people who have the courage to do this. When it was time to brag about himself, Zhou Shi still did not hesitate to brag

"Can Time Friends open registration?" Yao Xiaoguan asked again

"Registration will definitely be open, but I'll refer to their advice on the exact time. I can't make any decision lightly. ”

"Even if the prerequisite for me to join your company is open registration?"

"Then I can only say sorry to you" Zhou Shi doesn't know why this guy is always pestering this, time friends are concerned about your. Just as he was about to turn away and start his next move.

"Hey, don't go, if it's not open, it's not open," Yao Xiaoguan

"I didn't say no, but I know that professional things need to be done with expert advice. Zhou Shi turned around, after all, it was still Yao Xiaoguan, so if you can not give up or not, let's not give up. "I want advice from anyone, but I don't want any threats. I think you think the same way about game development, and you don't want me to dictate your game. ”

"Well, you're right. I'll join, it's always okay. Yao Xiaoguan

"Really, so fast?" Zhou Shi thought yesterday, spending a month with him at most, why did he suddenly agree. Happiness came too suddenly!

"Isn't it good soon, I also inquired, you have a good reputation" Yao Xiaoguan

"It seems that being a good person is welfare," Zhou Shi was complacent

"I think you misunderstood, they say that you are a bit brainless, easy to fool, pick the door in life, and give money generously at work. Yao Xiaoguan added

"Can I understand this as a compliment?" Zhou Shi didn't care about these people's opinions, "Who said this, you tell me, I promise not to kill him" Zhou Shi asked with a smile on his face

Yao Xiaoguan looked at an idiot and didn't speak.

"Then forget it, I don't care about him, since you agree, you can go to Yanjing after the National Day, and you can find someone to form a team by yourself, and the salary is at a high level in the industry, I will go back to Yanjing first"

"Hey, you're leaving like this?" asked Yao Xiaoguan

"Do you have liquidated damages? Say, how much, if you really can't, let's find a lawyer. "Zhou Shi

"You asked me to form a team?" Yao Xiaoguan

"Of course, I don't know how to develop games, you don't look for the right people, who knows who is the most suitable, I'm talking about the core team members, and other general game developers will naturally help you solve it when they come to the company. If there is a particularly powerful one, you can give the top salary in the industry. Zhou Shi added these, "By the way, do you have any good game operator recommendations, preferably experienced, I still want to represent another game, try it first." ”

"I found that you are not only brainless, but also very shameless, and do not treat yourself as an outsider. Yao Xiaoguan

"Thank you for the compliment, but I'm sure you won't regret it. Zhou Shi praised himself again

Unexpectedly, Zhou Shi said casually at the end and seduced him, which should have attracted a talent in game operations. In fact, the main thing is that there are too many talents in Shanda, and now that the turtles are in power, there is no place for these turtles. originally planned to return to Yanjing for the National Day, but this delay went directly to South Korea. Zhou Shi, Yao Xiaoguan and Yang Sen came to South Korea together to work towards DNF. In fact, it's not hard work, and no one in China seems to be optimistic about him. It's a 2D game, it looks featureless at first glance, and it's not very good when you look closely, but he's on fire anyway.

Zhou Shi and their first contact was bubble kart, but they didn't expect that they had arrangements for this game, and the next thing was naturally DNF. Such a 2D game against the trend, I'm afraid they don't have much confidence in themselves, just right for Zhou Shi and them to start, but for the follow-up development, Zhou Shi also hopes to have a little more autonomy, which is still quite difficult. Fortunately, there are many people who have entered South Korea to pan for gold in recent years, so there is no need to worry about the language barrier. In order to get a part of the right to modify, there is also the right of first refusal, and in the end, it paid $4 million to obtain a 7-year agency, and the annual agency fee and share are much less than those popular games.

However, the game company was not established, and Zhou Shi paid $300,000 in advance to set the qualification. Returning home began formal preparations.

"I didn't expect that I was fooled by you" Yao Xiaoguan complained on the way back

"I didn't lie to you, don't slander me. Zhou Shicai couldn't stand the grievances

"You don't have a company, so you just ......" Yao Xiaoguan

"So you're my partner, not my subordinate. "Zhou Shi

"Well, I'm convinced by you again. But this broken game, you really don't worry about capsizing?"

"I don't think technology is the most important thing in games, I think the core of online games is social and entertainment, and we play games for inner satisfaction. ”

"It's still a set, it's like a thing, it's much better than your game skills" Yao Xiaoguan

"You guys are still finished, you can't let me rest" Yang Sen, "Yao Xiaoguan, how come I never knew why you said so much!"

"......" Both of them were immediately shocked

When he returned to China, Zhou Shi found that a lot of things had happened in the domestic Internet rivers and lakes in a few days. The red-coated cannon finally left Yahoo, and all the contradictions died down when he left Yahoo China, and the two sides stopped blaming each other. Zhou Shi also received a call from Ma Ali, who had officially decided to accept Yahoo's investment. The price has been roughly negotiated, $1 billion plus Yahoo China, for a 35% stake in Yahoo. Everything doesn't seem to have changed much, Ali's funds are in a predicament, except for listing, then only to accept investment. Zhou Shi's stake in Ali has become about 7 percent. I went to Ali again and signed the contract. Zhou Shi's net worth can be regarded as rising a little. Now Ali is valued at 4.5 billion, and Zhou Shi also has a net worth of 300 million US dollars. That's a lot more than he made by speculating in the financial markets. And this is only a few short months, and Zhou Shi wonders if this is a dream. But think about a few years later, when Microsoft took a stake in Facebook, it was valued at $15 billion. When the Russians bought the shares, they were valued at $10 billion, and no one knows what the inside story was. However, this year, Taobao has put eBay down, which is an indisputable fact, and Alibaba's B2B business has also exploded, maybe this is the explanation!

It happened that during this time, London copper hit the integer mark of $4,000, and Zhou Shi made a position change operation. First took profit near $4,000 and then back near $3,800. More than $10 million was earned, and the money for setting up a game company was earned back in this way. Coupled with the 5 million originally in the account, Zhou Shi raised a total of 10 million US dollars. The remaining more than 15 million bought 1,200 lots of London copper at an average price of 3,830. Once the price of London copper falls to $3,300, Zhou Shi will blow up, but he believes that London copper will not give him a chance to blow up.
