Chapter 115: Unintentional Willow Insertion
At the end of January 2019, just before the Spring Festival, Lin Qi traveled back to the 21st century. Before going home for www.biquge.info the Chinese New Year, Lin Qi first went to inspect the company in this world.
Lin Qi was not afraid that the company's management would be greedy for his money or that the management would run away with money.
After all, the capital and energy invested by Felix's Lin Qi are very limited, and even if the company collapses, he will be blind and choose the wrong person.
However, Yun Xianke did not live up to Lin Qi's trust, Felix's company was much healthier than he imagined, and even to Lin Qi's consternation, the company was actually profitable.
Because, in the second half of last year, the company began to engage in a mobile game, and after that, the mobile game did not die violently, but became an important cash cow for the company.
"We developed mobile games because we ...... The company's programmers were idle and bored, and in their spare time, they made a mobile game, and used the company's most popular IP "Otaku is always crossed". Yun Xianke said with a prelude of first cutting and then playing, "The reason why we make our own games is because the game copyright can't be sold at a high price, so instead of selling it for hundreds of thousands of yuan, how can we spend hundreds of thousands of dollars on research and development and try our luck in the market." ”
R&D of mobile games is obviously also gambling, the company as a whole is still in a state of burning money, and take out funds to engage in games, if the game loses money, then, although the company will not collapse, but the financial situation will definitely deteriorate.
Luckily, I won the bet!
At present, the number of downloads of the mobile game "Otaku Total Crossing" has exceeded 500,000 people, because the vast majority of gamers are fans of the novel version. The download also relies on word of mouth, and it is downloaded by scanning the QR code of the website. Recharge is also only open to online banking, Alipay, WeChat wallet and other channels with very low recharge costs. It is for this reason that 90% of the turnover is gross profit.
Because the technicians of this mobile game are basically scum, they are not very good at optimizing the program, so, the program of the mobile game is relatively large, and the installation package will reach 1.5 G, and it will reach more than 3G after decompression and installation.
A few years ago, the game would not have had a market just because the installation package was so large. But today's mobile phones are basically much more powerful than a few years ago, and in addition, wireless routers have become popular, so the game program is too large, and it is not a resistance.
"Good job!" Lin Qi said affirmatively, "In the past few months, I have mainly invested in various parts of the world, helping the parent company invest in a number of projects. I don't have a stake in these projects, so I get a lot of bonus money. Therefore, gradually I had the money to redeem the equity of Felix held by the parent company, and when the equity of Felix Company was gradually transferred to my account, I began to implement the equity incentive of key employees. In the future, we will gradually realize the ownership of most of the outstanding employees internally, and rely on the team of employees to determine the future development of the company. I will gradually become a financial investor because of the reduction of equity. Of course, I will be the majority shareholder of the company for the next 10 years, and I will support the development of the company with my own personal funds and resources. As for money, don't worry, I'm richer than you think!"
As a company that has only been established for a year, Felix is not simple. Lin Qi has injected less than 10 million yuan of funds, and last year he still had to burn money to circle users, and now the user scale is not very large, only 3 million registered users.
But at this time, it has achieved a miracle of 2 million yuan per month, which is mainly due to the success of the company's mobile game circle.
Compared with those super mobile games that can have a turnover of more than 10 billion yuan a year, Felix's "Otaku is Always Crossed", and the performance can be ignored.
But being able to make a profit is already quite good, and Lin Qi did not formulate any Wang Tu hegemony for Felix's company, and the company's development into this is already a satisfactory result for him.
However, Lin Qi still advised: "The foundation of the company is still the two major online platforms of novels and music. These platforms have generated IPs and gathered popularity. Even if it is difficult for the platform itself to make money, you can't give up these platforms! Moreover, you must use these platforms as the foundation to be competitive! The quality of the mobile game "Otaku is always crossed" is just like that, in essence, it is just a mobile game for IP monetization and fans!"
"That's right!" Yun Xianke nodded and said, "The next step of the company will not be to compare with those giants, but to expand and strengthen the platform at the same time, and use big data to analyze the value of copyright in its hands to develop products for the market more accurately." In addition, the film and television version of "Otaku" that we authorized will be broadcast simultaneously on several major video websites during the Chinese New Year, and we may take this opportunity to attract another wave of players to the mobile game......"
"Let's talk about it after the New Year, now, first of all, I want to send red envelopes to all employees and signed authors to celebrate the New Year. Lin Qi said with a smile.
At present, Felix is no longer an Internet company with more than 50 employees, rather than a single-digit number of employees at the beginning. If you include the writers and singers who have signed contracts, there are currently more than 400 regular employees and partners in the company.
Before the Chinese New Year, Lin Qi asked Yunxian to pay New Year's greetings to all employees and contracted authors of the company in advance, and in addition, he also gave red envelopes to the site of overtime. Employees who have gone home, as well as contracted authors, have received a New Year's red envelope of 588 yuan from the company.
Although there are not many red envelopes, they are the company's heart.
It is a share for everyone, and an extra New Year's red envelope is issued. Since then, the company has received gratitude from employees and contracted authors.
After dealing with the affairs of Felix's company, Lin Qi began to queue up to buy train tickets to go home like the people who went home for the Spring Festival.
On the way home, Lin Qi kept making up for the news of this period of time, so as to avoid being ignorant of what happened at home and abroad during this time.
By the time he got off the high-speed rail, Lin Qi had already entered the state, as if he was really returning from a simple business trip.
After returning home, Lin Qi continued to transfer another 1 million yuan to his parents' bank card as he did last year, on the grounds that the business was relatively smooth, and the company he ran by himself had entered a profit cycle. I became my own boss, and of course I earned more than I used to.
In this regard, the parents were both relieved and asked strangely: "Why didn't Meng Xin come back with you?"
"It's been too busy, we're all busy. Lin Qi disguised and said, "She is from a scientific research unit, and I am doing business outside." ”
"It's enough to have food and shelter, and you don't need to make that much money. The parents were chattering again, "The most important thing is to have two children early, and help you bring them when both parents can still take care of the children, which will not affect your hard work." ”
"Got it, got it. "Lin Qi can't do anything about his parents.
