Chapter 12 Oriental Industrial Park
The talks ended smoothly before noon, and the two sides could say that they could get what they needed, and they were all happy, and those who needed to attract investment got up to 2 billion yuan of investment intentions, and those who needed benefits also had resources that could be discussed and allocated, Zhang Lexing got the commitment he needed, and Zhao Haiguang got the opportunity for the future development of the domestic game industry. At the invitation of Director Li, the two sides also came to the private room downstairs for lunch, although the table was full of tempting dishes and the wine was also very rich, but Zhang Lexing's mind had long been on it, and he had begun to think about how to go to the Internet café in the future.
After a happy lunch, Zhang Lexing took a car to the Oriental Industrial Park in Shangdi, accompanied by Wang Mengyao, Ma Guanghai and others. After getting off the bus, Zhang Lexing and his entourage went directly to the Beijing office of Oriental Holdings on the second floor of Building 8, which is the mobile office of his chairman, and he will be working here for the next week. Since the official networking of the major research parks through satellites, Zhang Lexing's office does not need to be fixed in a certain place for a long time, as long as there is a satellite ground station, you can view the latest situation at any time, although it is far from achieving the effect of working anytime and anywhere, but at this time it is already the best, affected by this, even the manpower of the Beijing office has been reduced, because there is no need for many people to collect information.
Walking through the open office area outside, Zhang Lexing walked into his independent office, then sat down on the sofa, leaned back on the backrest, gently closed his eyes, and slowly rubbed his left hand at the base of his nose next to the inner canthus of his eyes. Ma Guanghai moved a chair and sat down by the door silently, and after Wang Mengyao followed, he stood obediently not far from Zhang Lexing, waiting.
After rubbing it for a while, Zhang Lexing closed his eyes slightly and asked, "Meng Yao, is there anything going on here lately?"
"Boss, since the last time you participated'Domestic Game Development Trend Seminar','China Game Library' project has begun to operate,As of last week,153 applications have been received,There are 28 companies to recommend in person,We took the initiative to contact 9 companies,The final purchase requirements are not many,Only 12 games,For example, "Water Margin Heroes", "Warring States Fengyun", etc., all of them are signed in the form of buyout. Furthermore...... That's it for the last week, if you need a more detailed look, you can check out the latest weekly report. Wang Mengyao replied while flipping through the notepad in her hand: "In addition, there are two game studios that officially joined the company yesterday, namely Octopus Studio, which broke away from Tengtu Software, and Creative Eagle Studio, which was independent after losing the investment of Taiwan's New Idea Company. ”
Hearing the familiar name, Zhang Lexing opened his eyes and asked, "Oh, how are these two studios arranged now?"
"Well, the situation of the two is different, Octopus Studio left Tengtu Software after completing the project, and after the evaluation of the human resources department, it is believed that its main members already have a certain game development strength, but the experience is still lacking, so the company plans to arrange a few OEM projects for them to exercise. Creative Eagle Xiang Studio came with a project, "Between Life and Death 2 Doomsday Legend" is a real-time strategy game, after evaluation by relevant departments, it is believed that according to its setting, it can be made into a work that is not inferior to similar games, the game is more unique is that many combat scenes take place in deep space, and add the concept of free assembly of space bases, very innovative......"
"Creative Eagle Soaring? I remember that it seems that they were a local company, and the copyright of "Between Life and Death 2" is fine. ”
"Boss, the company is a subsidiary of Taiwan Xinyi, the creative Eagle Xiang was originally called Eagle Xiang Studio, and the relationship between them and the company is actually the relationship between the production team and the investor, but the original copyright of "Between Life and Death" is in the hands of Eagle Xiang Studio, so you don't have to worry, and the legal department has reviewed this, and there is really no problem with the copyright. ”
"Well, in that case, I can rest assured. Meng Yao, is there anything else?"
"Boss, do we really want to invest in the Internet café industry?" asked Wang Mengyao cautiously.
"Of course, only in this way can we speed up the promotion of the system, create a new market for the domestic game industry, and have a stable foundation for survival, so that the domestic game industry has the opportunity to develop and thrive. Zhang Lexing smiled and said: "And as long as the Internet café is operated well, it is actually very profitable." ”
"Hmm......" Wang Mengyao opened her mouth, as if she wanted to say something, and endured it again.
Zhang Lexing noticed Wang Mengyao's expression and asked suspiciously, "Mengyao, what's wrong with you?" ”
"Well," Wang Mengyao hesitated, carefully organized the language and said: "Boss, there is one thing I don't understand, why do you care so much about other domestic game companies, and often go to great lengths to help them provide all kinds of support, in fact, if we leave those supported resources, our own game development strength can definitely be greatly improved, that can also represent the domestic game development strength, and it is the best." ”
"Meng Yao, why do you think the game industry in the United States and Japan is developing so well?"
"Well, boss, I think it's because they have the advantages of capital, technology, talent, etc., that they can develop to this point. ”
"This is indeed one reason, and more importantly, they have enough market to ensure the survival and development of game companies, and there is sufficient competition to ensure the driving force for game companies to continue to innovate and progress, which is what China lacks the most. The genuine game market is too small, can't feed a few companies, game companies are generally not strong, lack of funds, and have no ability to develop too good games, and the income will only be worse, so it is equivalent to falling into a vicious circle, insufficient capital and technical ability, unable to develop good games, unable to obtain enough income, not improving technical strength, lack of development funds, and still unable to develop good games. Even if there is competition in this environment, it is only a low-level competition, and in the long run, there are probably few domestic game companies that can survive. ”
Speaking of this, Zhang Lexing got up and came to the window, looked at the office building of the creative workshop opposite, and continued to say to Wang Mengyao: "Once a large number of domestic game companies close their doors, the domestic game market will gradually shrink, and the attractiveness of the domestic market will gradually decrease. The more people involved in the game industry, the larger the scale of the industry, the more attention the state will pay more attention to, relevant support policies will be introduced, and the industry will enter a virtuous circle......"
Wang Mengyao nodded thoughtfully and said, "That's why you are so dedicated to providing all kinds of help, and you have also set up a dream fund." ”
"Yes, what I pursue is the development of the entire industry, the current domestic market is like a small cake, it is not enough for everyone to share, the only way is to find a way to make the cake bigger, rather than trying to dominate. ”
"Boss, I see. So the Internet café thing, are we going to start operating now?"
"Don't worry, I think you should have felt their efficiency, let's wait for the results of the discussion, so as not to have an unexpected situation. Zhang Lexing waved his hand and said, "Meng Yao, if you have nothing else to do, go get busy first, I'll rest first." ”
"Okay, boss. Wang Mengyao bowed slightly, turned around and left the office.
Zhang Lexing took out a thin quilt from the bottom of the filing cabinet, returned to the sofa, and began a midday nap......
When he woke up, it was already 2:16 in the afternoon, Zhang Lexing sat up, yawned, put away the quilt, tidied up the sofa, got up and came to the window to look out. Downstairs, the manicured grass and trees are lush in the bright sunlight outside, and there is a fountain in the middle of the lawn, and the dancing water columns glow golden in the afternoon sun. Zhang Lexing stretched out his hand to push open the glass window, and a fresh aroma of grass and trees wafted in, faintly refreshing, making people feel very comfortable.
After standing quietly for a while, Zhang Lexing closed the window, returned to the desk and sat down, then turned on the computer, logged in to the system with his own account, looked at the latest situation in the OA system, and by the way, he handled a few office emails that needed his opinions, and he was idle again. Zhang Lexing glanced at the clock in the lower right corner of the computer, there was still a quarter of an hour before three o'clock in the afternoon, the time was still very early, he stood up boredly, walked around the office a few times, his eyes swept on the data cabinet several times, and finally decided to go to the opposite building to see, he hadn't been there for several months, he wanted to see if anything had changed in the creative workshop.
Thinking of this, Zhang Le walked out of his office and came to the open office area outside. The five or six office staff left in the office were busy, or they were using the phone to contact something, or typing on the keyboard in front of the computer, and Wang Mengyao was sitting next to the door of Zhang Lexing's office, reading a book.
Zhang Lexing gently patted her shoulder and ordered, "Meng Yao, let's go, let's go to the opposite building to have a look." ”
Wang Mengyao put down the book in her hand and immediately stood up: "Okay, boss." ”
……
The two went downstairs and walked along the path between the buildings to Building 6 (the office building where the creative workshop is located) opposite Building 8, while Ma Guanghai kept an appropriate distance behind Zhang Lexing. Since the creative workshop moved to the Oriental Industrial Park, Zhang Lexing has not come much, and often passes by in a hurry, so he is not too clear about the situation in the building, Wang Mengyao is very clear about this, so as soon as she arrived downstairs in Building 6, she began to make an introduction.
"Boss, this building has a total of eight floors, six floors above ground, and two floors underground...... Wang Mengyao gestured with her hand while introducing: "By the way, there is a garden-style terrace on the roof, and the environment is very good." ”
"Okay, I'll go up and have a look, I haven't been there a few times. Zhang Lexing looked up, and could vaguely see a few green plants sticking out of the roof, and couldn't help but look forward to it.
Wang Mengyao picked up the badge and swiped it at the door downstairs, and the green light on the door turned on with a "tick" sound, she reached out and held the doorknob and turned it, pushed the door and walked in, Zhang Lexing and Ma Guanghai also quickly followed into the hall on the first floor.
Wang Mengyao put the badge away and continued to introduce: "Boss, the first floor to the left is mainly the office area of administrative, financial and other management personnel, but because the place is relatively large, the right side was still empty before, and this time it was lent to the new Octopus and Creative Eagle Xiang two game studios, as their temporary station, and also allowed them to run in with the company's management personnel more." ”
"How's that, are they still used to it?"
"Fortunately, the management of our company has always been very free, and there is nothing wrong with them. ”
"Well, that's good. Zhang Lexing nodded with satisfaction.
"Boss, this basement floor is the internal staff parking lot, and the second basement floor is the server area and the sub-computing center of this building, which are still relatively empty for the time being, and have not been fully used, do you want to go down and have a look." ”
Zhang Lexing shook his head in demand and said, "Forget it, let's go upstairs." ”
"Boss, do you want to take the elevator?" Wang Mengyao asked, pointing to the two elevators at the end of the hall.
"No, let's take the stairs, just by the way, look at it layer by layer. Zhang Lexing shook his head again.
The three of them walked up the stairs to the second floor, pushed open the door of the stairwell and walked out. According to Wang Mengyao, this floor is a leisure activity area, inheriting the previous tradition, where all kinds of entertainment facilities are readily available, with the latest arcade games and a variety of home game consoles electronic game room, full of treadmills, rowing machines and other exercise equipment 1,000 square meters of gymnasium, specially soundproofed small KTV room, and even a small indoor basketball court. When Zhang Lexing and others passed by, there happened to be a few employees playing a 3VS3 game on the basketball court, and they were sweating in the fierce confrontation, and they didn't notice anyone passing by at all. After standing aside and watching for a while, Zhang Lexing and the others turned around and walked towards the third floor.
"Boss, you've been to this floor before, mainly the planning center, the art production center and the project department, you should remember it. Walking out of the stairwell, Wang Mengyao pointed to a long row of glass partitioned office areas and introduced: "Facing the office area of the project department. ”
Zhang Lexing stood in the aisle and looked to both sides, although the glass was a little reflective, he could still see those busy figures, and in his ears was the wafting sound of keyboard taps and mouse clicks, accompanied by the sound of several soft music mixed together, a picture of busy work appeared in his mind.
