Chapter 12 Press Conference

"Sister, you can go to this press conference, my heart is beating so fast now, I guess I won't be able to stand on my feet when I really go up."

Li Haoyu and Li Yaxi reached an agreement with Yenching's Zhile Software Company for $10.5 million to sell all the materials of the two games, Thor Storm and Goddess Realm, to Zhile Software, but both games must be marked with the words "Mythology Studios".

Playright Software is one of the world's top names in the mobile gaming space, so a press conference was necessary for such a big event, and then they would formally sign the agreement in front of a large number of journalists, and then both parties would answer questions from major media outlets.

After the two sides reached an agreement, Zhile Software began to notify the major media that they were more familiar with, and even the reporters of European and American media in Yanjing were invited, speaking of which, Zhile Software originated in France in Europe and has been developed to the greatest extent in the United States, so it is relatively open in Europe and the United States.

It was the first time for Li Haoyu to go to a press conference, not to mention the nervousness in his heart, holding his chest couldn't slow down his heartbeat.

Li Yayan said comfortingly: "Haoyu, don't be afraid, you can just be a puppet for those reporters, anyway, you can keep smiling and looking ahead." ”

Li Haoyu said again: "Sister, what should I do if the reporters ask me questions?" ”

"Stupid, say whatever you have to say! When the time comes, you will publicize the news that you are about to start a game company, this kind of free advertising cannot be asked for by others, and other reporters will not eat people, what are you afraid of? ”

Li Yayan was very disappointed with Li Haoyu's performance, and knocked on his head with hatred.

Li Haoyu covered his head and dodged, just as he was about to speak, his mobile phone rang, he picked it up and saw that it was a number from Lingnan Province, he thought about it and connected the phone.

"Excuse me, are you Mr. Li Haoyu of Mythology Studio?" A magnetic male voice came from the other end of the line.

"I'm Li Haoyu, who are you?"

"Hello Mr. Li Haoyu, I'm Huang Fei from the mobile game department of Tencent Games, and we are interested in acquiring your studio's game Thor Storm, I wonder if Mr. Li intends to sell it?"

Huang Fei's voice on the other end of the phone unconsciously exuded a kind of superior arrogance, which made Li Haoyu very uncomfortable to hear.

Li Haoyu said lightly: "I'm sorry, Mr. Huang, the game Thor Storm was sold to Zhile Software Company, and now the contract has been signed, I'm really sorry." ”

Huang Fei's regretful voice came from the other end of the phone, "It's a pity," he paused and asked, "Then I wonder if Mr. Li has the intention to join our Tencent Games?" We will definitely give you and your companions the best conditions and the best R&D environment, Mr. Li, can you discuss with your companions? ”

"Mr. Huang, my companion and I don't have this plan for the time being, I'm sorry, that's it, I'm hanging." After saying that, he hung up the phone.

Li Yayan asked, "Who called?" ”

Li Haoyu said a little solemnly: "It was a person named Huang Fei from Tencent Games who called, and he wanted to dig me up when the game was out of play, hum." ”

"If Tencent Games was the first to call, would you sell Thor Storm to Tencent Games?" Li Yayan saw that Li Haoyu was not very interested in Tencent Games, and asked curiously.

Li Haoyu shook his head and said: "No, the current situation is that any company in China that wants to make a difference in the Internet and game industry has to face the behemoth of Tencent." If I sell the game to them at the moment, it will be even more difficult to fight it in the future, so I will not sell the game to Tencent anyway. ”

Since getting the super game editor, Li Haoyu has become very concerned about the dynamics of major domestic game companies, and he is particularly concerned about Tencent, which has expanded its market share in the domestic game market rapidly, especially in July this year, Activision Blizzard spent 5.83 billion US dollars to officially repurchase most of the shares from the Vivendi Group in France, and it is surprising that Tencent has also invested in Activision Blizzard, the aircraft carrier of the game industry, accounting for about 6% of the shares.

Since then, Li Haoyu has regarded Tencent as the biggest obstacle to his strength in the game industry, and secretly decided that any game in the super game editor cannot be obtained by Tencent even if it is sold, otherwise Tencent will be even more difficult to deal with in the future.

"Mr. Li, Miss Li, the press conference is about to start, please go behind the scenes and wait for a while." At this time, a staff member came to them and said.

Li Haoyu and Li Yayan followed the staff to the backstage, only to see that in front of them was a platform more than half a person high, with a row of tables on the stage and a red cloth hanging behind the stage. Dozens of reporters were already in place in the audience, and some of them even picked up their long guns and short guns to take pictures on the stage.

Qi Zhifeng and several high-level executives of Zhile Software were also here, and when they saw them coming, they smiled and nodded to the two.

Maybe it was the phone call with Tencent's Huang Fei just now that stimulated Li Haoyu's blood, and now he feels not afraid when he sees so many reporters, but is looking forward to the first meeting of reporters.

At this time, a beautiful female emcee walked up to the stage, bowed slightly to the audience, and said: "Welcome all friends from the media to attend the signing ceremony and press conference of my Zhile Software Yanjing Branch and Mythology Studio about the two games of Thor Storm and Goddess Country. Now there is affection for our company's general manager Qi, director Yang Hao of the operation department, and Mr. Li Haoyu, the representative of the mythical studio, came to the stage to meet with you! ”

There was a round of applause from the audience, and most of the reporters were busy writing something on their laptops.

Qi Zhifeng smiled at Li Haoyu and walked in front, Li Yayan shook Li Haoyu's hand and said, "Haoyu, come on, I believe you can!" ”

Li Haoyu nodded heavily, and followed him out, found his name on the table in the row on the stage, and sat down.

Click, click!

A series of camera lights under the stage began to flicker, so bright that Li Haoyu couldn't help but squint his eyes.

The reporters were a little surprised to see that the representative of the long-known Mythology Studio turned out to be a young man in his early twenties, and even wanted to start interviewing Li Haoyu now.

The emcee hurriedly said: "Friends from the media, don't worry, after the agreement between Zhile Software and Mythology Studio is signed, everyone can ask questions casually." ”

The reporters were all highly qualified people, and they quickly quieted down, and the preparations for raising their long guns and short guns began.

The signing ceremony is very simple, that is, under the witness of the major media, both parties can sign the contract respectively, and the female emcee distributed a contract in front of Qi Zhifeng and Li Haoyu, and after they signed it, they exchanged contracts and signed them again, and the signing ceremony was completed.

Li Haoyu and Qi Zhifeng showed the contract to the reporters in the audience, and at this time, there was a dense flash of magnesium lights, and countless reporters pressed the shutter to note this moment.

When announcing the official start of the press conference, dozens of reporters in the audience raised their hands together to ask questions, and Qi Zhifeng randomly ordered a reporter. The reporter quickly stood up and asked: "Hello Mr. Qi, I am a special reporter of Duo Game Network, I want to ask what made Mr. Qi make you decide to buy these two mobile games of Myth Studio at a sky-high price?" Also, what kind of game is Goddess Country, the new game of Mythology Studios? ”

Qi Zhifeng moved the microphone on the table and said with a smile: "These two mobile games from Myth Studio are currently very good mobile games, and they have very strong expansion capabilities, I believe that these two games will not be outdated in two or three years, and this will bring us a very rich return on Zhile Software." As for the game of the goddess country, let's ask Mr. Li Haoyu, who developed it, to answer. ”

Li Haoyu turned on the projector in front of him and introduced the game of the Goddess Country, at the beginning he was still a little uneasy to speak, and gradually the more he spoke, the more fluent he became, showing the demeanor of a business elite.

Soon the reporters in the audience began to raise their hands to ask questions again, and then it was Li Haoyu's turn to order people, he ordered the second batch of an intellectual woman wearing glasses, this woman stood up and asked: "Mr. Li Haoyu, I am Ling Ling, a reporter from Shancheng Evening News, I want to ask if you are from Shancheng?" How many people are in Mythology Studios? Does Mr. Li have any plans for the future development of Mythology Studio? ”

Li Haoyu didn't expect to meet a reporter from his hometown newspaper in Yan Jingjing, and said with a smile: "Reporter Ling, you asked so many questions at once, I really don't know how to answer Lu Dao, let's answer one question at a time." ”

The reporters all chuckled, and they found that although the representative of this mythical studio was young, he was not stage frightened at all, and he seemed to be extremely personable.

"First, I am indeed an authentic Shancheng person, and the second question, I can't disclose the situation of Shenhua Studio, please forgive Reporter Ling, but what I can tell you is that there are many people in the Mythology Studio, and all of them are elites. The third question is that Myth Studios will soon set up its own game company, called Myth Network, and all video games are within our scope! ”

"Hello Mr. Li Haoyu, I am a reporter of 17173 online games, and the establishment of its own company by Myth Studio will have an impact on the current Zhile software?" Another reporter stood up and asked.

Qi Zhifeng's face also changed slightly, and he also felt a trace of pressure on the mythical company that Li Haoyu said.

"No, the mythical company we are about to set up will be mainly online games and web games, although we will also be involved in mobile games, but I think we have more of a partnership with Playright Software."

Li Haoyu actually knows that Ludao mobile games will be the main source of money in the future, but now his company has not yet been established, and he still can't offend Zhile Software, a big player in the field of mobile games, otherwise he will have a hard time in the future.

Sure enough, Qi Zhifeng's face was a little better after listening to Li Haoyu's words, although he didn't quite believe Li Haoyu's words, but at least at present, this mythical studio did not have any threat to Zhile Software.

Most of the next reporters' questions were aimed at Li Haoyu, which made his mouth dry, and he drank a bottle of mineral water before he could barely cope with it. This is not so much a joint press conference between Playwright and Myth Studio, but rather a personal interview with Li Haoyu.
