Chapter 89: The Alternation of the Old and the New, the Best of All Worlds

After returning home for dinner, Lin Yi began to read the report. The monthly income of 25 million above scared him so much that he almost fell to the ground. That's dollars, not Hong Kong dollars!

Fortunately, after careful research, he found that his company was indeed not boring. Nor was it hijacked by criminal syndicates to help them launder money.

Although last month's profit more than tripled all at once, it was indeed a legitimate income. It seems that joy really fell from heaven, not disaster from heaven!

A month ago, although Ferran was far away in Asia, he took advantage of the price advantage of the Singapore branch to command the American Paradise Company to fight a small price war.

Counting the previous battle of the law, this is the second battle. The results of the battle were gratifying - Paradise Arcade shipments approached the 50,000 mark last month.

Among them, there were 30,000 units in the United States, with a net income of 5.3 million US dollars, which was a lot lower than before.

In the past month and a half, the production capacity of the Singapore branch has only been 20,000 units. But all the arcade machines were sent to the United States by Phelan, and none were left in Asia!

Although Singapore's production capacity is 10,000 units less than that of the United States, it is enough to calculate the revenue separately and it is enough to 20 million US dollars!

In other words, the ex-factory price of each arcade machine in the Singapore branch minus the cost reached 1,000 US dollars, and Lin Yi ate alone!

In the United States, the retail price minus the cost can be 1,000 US dollars, and it has to be shared with dealers.

After careful research, Lin Yi discovered the mystery: first of all, the Singapore branch, as a high-tech enterprise, is now in a tax holiday, so there is no corporate tax!

Unlike in the U.S., where the IRS asks for 'half of the meeting'.

The second is Singapore, where the cost of production is really low. Even if freight and tariffs are added, it is still 30 percent cheaper than the United States! And such a large piece of benefits, excluding the small concessions of the 'price war', are basically in Lin Yi's pocket.

It seems that the establishment of an Asian paradise is really a strategic step!

However, this dumping behavior also made the total shipments of "Pac-Man" and "Space Invaders" exceed 150,000 units. I'm afraid it won't take long for the market for these two games to reach saturation.

But after receiving the news, Lin Yi was still ecstatic. For Phelan's 'quick success', he doesn't mind at all. Just like the Dian Niang of later generations, as long as a new type of novel is published, the author will naturally accelerate the lead!

Whether it's a genre novel or a genre game, their 'saturation progress bar' is only that long. Instead of letting others push it, let yourself do it.

Eating one day earlier is equivalent to grabbing an extra market from the mouth of a competitor. In the future, we will develop new games and enter new markets!

Coupled with the accumulation of heaven before, as well as the income from Hong Kong, and some of the funds retained in the account, Lin Yi's funds at his disposal are as high as 35 million US dollars!

Money is a man's guts! For his ambition, this huge amount of money is equivalent to an accelerant.

Lin Yi temporarily suppressed his ambition and picked up the last document, which recorded that he had only left the United States for two days before the development of the "Trap" game.

Although the development plan was confirmed, it was only a month ago, but the current game is not even 1M in size, and it is only a few ks to dozens of k!

In the future, even if it is a small game, it will have to start at least 100M. A hundred thousand times the size means a hundred thousand times the development time. Therefore, it is normal for Heaven's development efficiency to be so high.

This "Trap" game, not only has the development been completed, but even the market experiment has been going on for a week. Player feedback was, "I love it!"

At the end of the document, Phelan's signature. As long as Lin Yi confirms, "Trap" will become the main product in the second half of the year on the side of the American company.

However, after Phelan signed, he attached a suggestion: "Two factories in the United States should immediately switch to the production of the "Trap" game. This is a new genre that companies should fight for with all their might! As for the production capacity gap of old games, it can be filled with Asian factories. ”

There was nothing to hesitate about, Lin Yi immediately signed and agreed. Whether it's a new type of game or a new type of novel, it all means a new 'war'!

========= dividing line =========

Visiting friends in the morning, working in the afternoon, and reporting in the evening, with the fatigue of the day, Lin Yi sank into the bathtub. It's full of hot water, and it's so refreshing after entering, it's really happy like a fairy!

Empty your brain, think about nothing, the exhaustion fades quickly, and the energy is re-injected. When he went out to cool off after taking a shower, Lin Yi felt better than ever!

The stars twinkled in the night sky, and the scene in the publishing house seemed to be reflected in the stars. It is said that there are thoughts during the day and dreams at night, but Lin Yi's situation, how to calculate it?

Of course, it is worth rejoicing that the enterprise has grown and grown. But in this process, it is impossible to have everything go as planned. When there are more people in the company, problems will naturally increase.

Qiao Anbang has an open-minded personality and is not the kind of person who reports good news but not bad news. He didn't hide the shortcomings of the publishing house, and reported them all to Lin Yi.

For most issues, Jo Anbang has its own means. Only the relationship between new and old employees gave him a headache.

This year, Hong Kong's economy is booming, the profits of publishing houses have skyrocketed, and of course wages have risen, and the increase is very large, 10% higher than the average of its peers, which is not a huge bonus.

Assuming that they don't eat or drink, others can buy a 40-square-meter house after saving money for six years. Then the staff of Qiao's Publishing House only needs five years to be enough.

With such good conditions, when the company recruits new people, of course, it can choose the best of the best.

When there are more people, the management must also be upgraded. According to the annual salary calendar, most of the old employees have been promoted.

Originally, this was a happy event for both the old and the new. But some people suddenly reach high positions, and in the face of more capable and energetic subordinates, their mentality may be a little out of order. From interpersonal relationships, to management work, dealing with stumbling is all stumbling.

Although the elite was introduced, the contradictions between the old and the new also arose. Therefore, some of the recent important work has been run by Xu Zhiguo himself. Because whether it is handed over to the newcomer or the old, it is likely to intensify the conflict.

According to Qiao Anbang's original meaning, this is only a temporary situation, and in the future, heroes will still be judged by ability, and in the end, the strong will go up and the mediocre will go down. To deal with some thorns, he has no shortage of thunder means!

However, Lao Qiao didn't expect that the old people's reaction to his arrangement was a bit big, especially Vice President Ding Min.

This person is two years younger than Qiao Anbang, and when the publishing house first started its business, he came in, and he can be regarded as the No. 3 veteran!

Almost ten years of youth have been dedicated to the publishing house. So Lao Qiao, Lao Xu, and Lao Ding, the relationship between the three of them is very good. Dealing with his problems, Qiao Anbang is really a bit numb.

Lin Yi originally wanted to be a villain and deal with this Ding Min, but was persuaded by Xu Zhiguo: "Brother Ding just can't think about it for a while, please be sure to give us a little time, let me and Lao Qiao think about it again." ”

It seems that the friendship between the three of them for fifteen or sixteen years is not something that can be broken by saying it. If you don't count sleeping, they may spend more time together than their wives and children.

Vice President Xu works diligently, is the backbone of the publishing house, and Lin Yi's minister of the humerus, and his face must be given!

However, for the time being, the above is only a secondary reason, and the big boss has a new idea.
