Chapter 288: Business Negotiation (Part II)

"Mr. Liu, there is no doubt that now LOL has become the most popular game in the world, and for two consecutive years we have lost on the stage of the World Finals, I believe that Liu Tao is not reconciled, and many LOL players are not reconciled, why do we have to watch the Korean stick win the championship every year."

"Our two companies have been negotiating for a long time around the right to operate this game, and you and I are very clear that neither you nor I can choose to make concessions." Brother Xiao Ma said to Liu Tao with a solemn face: "Therefore, in addition to participating in the small meeting held by the Ministry of Commerce, the most important thing when I came to the capital this time is to talk to Mr. Liu about this matter in person." ”

"Who is the richest person in the world? I think most people will say in unison that we are definitely Chinese. Mr. Liu, now we are not short of financial and material resources, what we lack is an opportunity, why don't we seize this opportunity that is delivered to us? ”

"Wait, I probably understood what you meant." Liu Tao suddenly understood what Brother Xiao Ma really wanted to say, quickly turned on his computer, and knew what Brother Xiao Ma said in a flash of inspiration: "You mean that we will work together to develop a game?" ”

"Yes, Mr. Liu, you and I have money, and there are people, why don't we do it ourselves?"

"I agree with you, but you should also know how hard it is to develop a full-fledged game, and even if I have an idea to develop a game, why should I bring you with me?"

"Because my QQ is the most widely used communication tool in China, as long as we join forces. I really can't think of any reason why we wouldn't be successful. The most important thing is Mr. Liu, my company has a mature game development team, and we have involved in domestic and foreign games, with the help of which we can succeed faster. What's more, we now have one of the most important promotion tools in our hands, and that is the team in our hands. ”

"As far as I know, your company is mainly based on pirated games, and there is no sense of autonomy at all, and independent innovation is only a game with property rights." Liu Tao looked at Brother Xiao Ma with the black line in his head, now the two are equal, and Liu Tao's start is more legendary than Brother Xiaoma. Naturally, he is not so polite as Brother Xiaoma when he speaks.

"Huh. This question depends on what you think of Mr. Liu. Brother Xiao Ma smiled helplessly at Liu Tao, thinking of the game developed by his company, Brother Xiao Ma did feel helpless for a while. I have to admit it. There is a shortage of top talent in this area in the country. I chose to cooperate with Liu Tao in order to avoid the risks brought by the new game.

"The game, itself is that mode, in the final analysis, it is to fight monsters and upgrade to make copies. And then the cycle ends up with this kind of thing. Brother Xiao Ma smiled and said to Liu Tao: "So, Mr. Liu, piracy is actually a kind of helplessness, as if there are many endless web games on the Internet now, and the previous legendary model has been continued by generations of people, so few people choose to innovate." ”

"There must be a reason for elimination.,Since the legend can be eliminated.,We may not be popular when we apply his model.,And now there's a lot of LOL.,There's a lot of the same tower pushing game.,Of course, there are a group of players.,But it's a drop in the bucket compared to LOL.。 Liu Tao is also very correct in the words of Brother Xiaoma, the current game company seems to be the same as the film company, as long as it makes money, it is good.

Legend,This game that swept the country that year did make a lot of money.,So that the future game style is basically a continuation of this model.,Even if there are small changes, it's not very big.,In general, it's still a level.,Monster farming plus copies.。 Liu Tao is actually very disgusted with this kind of game, in the final analysis, it is just a change of soup and not a change of medicine. This kind of fast-food online game is now flooded, but there is nothing China itself can do.

In China, as long as the things that can make money are good things, and businessmen are mercenary, naturally no game company can settle down and develop new games, because they know that if they fail, they will lose not only the millions that developed the game, but even more. Brother Xiao Ma is right, piracy is also a kind of helplessness, just like drugs in the Huaguo market, is there no top talent in Huaguo? No, there is, they have top talents, but these top talents have to do the work of pirating other people's things in order to keep themselves alive and their families alive, which is more of a kind of helplessness.

"Mr. Liu, in fact, sometimes things have to be seen separately." At this time, Boss Lei, who had not spoken, finally spoke, looked at Liu Tao with a smile and said: "It's like making mobile phones with our company is a truth, one market has been squeezed out, we must aim at another market, only with the market we dare to do something, because we know that we already have a market." ”

"That's a good word, but I really don't have much interest in the fast food games on the market." Liu Tao nodded and said to the two: "What I want to do is not to develop fast food games, and it will definitely not be LOL games, one game is enough, if we want to develop games, we have to take another path, a completely different road." A game that really immerses players, a game that can be completely entertainment-oriented. ”

"Mr. Liu, you can think clearly, give up the current situation and develop new games, even if our games are very popular, it is very likely that the funds we invested will not be recovered in a short time, and it is even possible to continue to support the operation of the game." Brother Xiao Ma looked at Liu Tao with a smile, his eyes were also full of eagerness, no one likes to be a pirate for a lifetime, and no one likes to be called a pirate for a lifetime.

"Boss Ma, are you definitely the one who cares about money?"

Brother Xiao Ma was stunned by what Liu Tao said, after all, he is also the richest man in the country, and his assets are not less than Liu Tao's, but it is the first time that someone said in front of him that he doesn't care about money. Brother Xiao Ma smiled, looked at Liu Tao playfully and said, "Mr. Liu, you don't care, but I care." ”

"Just kidding, I also want to take off the title of pirate on my head, and I also want to prove to the world that our Tencent company is not only only pirated, but also original, I believe that the business with Liu's total investment will definitely make money, otherwise Mr. Liu, you would not have broken into such a huge family business at a young age." Brother Xiao Ma looked at Liu Tao with confidence and said, Liu Tao was also very satisfied and nodded to Brother Xiao Ma.

"Mr. Liu, continue the topic we just discussed, in South Korea, we found that almost all major clubs have been acquired by major giants, I think instead of us spending money to hang these general companies, it is better to directly find giants to buy all the current LPL teams, what do you think?"

"That's a good idea, but we've divided up three teams so far, what are you going to do with the rest of the teams? Making money in China is always the first, fame is the second, we have divided a few teams, and it may not be easy for the rest of the companies to invest a lot of money. ”

"This is easy to do, you have divided three teams, and there are six teams left, our company acquired one by itself, and one of them is the team of Unicom Company, this team does not need us to worry, that is, there are only four teams left." Brother Xiao Ma seems to have an idea for a long time: "My idea is that Lenovo will acquire one, Baidu will acquire one, and Wahaha Group will acquire one, and the last one Liu always thinks is the most suitable company to acquire?" ”

"I'm afraid Mr. Ma, you already have an idea in your heart, do you still need to ask me? Finally, I think there are probably no other companies and enterprises other than FAW. ”

"My thoughts are similar to Mr. Liu's, except that I think of the Geely Group in Beijing, but if FAW is willing to buy it, it would be the best thing." Brother Xiao Ma looked at Liu Tao with a smile and said, and Boss Lei, who was sitting on the side, did not speak, because he knew that he could not interject at this time, and he was not qualified to interject, Liu Tao would not let his company interfere in e-sports, after all, the scale of his company was not enough.

Liu Tao and Xiao Ma smiled knowingly, it is obviously impossible to change the domestic e-sports investment environment in the short term, and if you want to change, you must break the old and establish the new, and this new must involve the major giants. At present, the company that invests in domestic e-sports can be said to be not small, but it is definitely not big, the real giants are not involved, and before Liu Tao inserts a kick, there is only one team under Wang Jianhao, the national husband, who hangs there half-dead.

If the major giants join in, it is obvious that with the strength of the major giants, they don't care about the prize money of e-sports competitions, they only care about the reputation of e-sports and the advertising effect. It just so happens that these companies need advertising effects, Xiao Ma's vision is very poisonous, no one who can sit in this position is stupid, Xiao Ma knows very well where the reasons for these companies to invest are, but this requires him and Liu Tao to work together.

"It seems that we are really going to turn the esports industry into an aristocratic industry."

"It can't be said that now whether it is the investment environment or the competition environment, it is all there, these companies we selected are all powerful large companies, as long as they are willing to invest in, the treatment of the players can be completely qualitatively changed, which also forces the players to play seriously, at least they don't have to worry about selling meat muffins after they retire."

"I don't want to give them the opportunity to sell meat muffins, I don't know how to play hard when there is no way out, to be honest I don't like the mixed race of the team, but if you want to improve the level, sometimes mixed blood is a good way." Liu Tao said to Brother Xiao Ma with a smile, Brother Xiao Ma naturally nodded and agreed with Liu Tao's words, since the environment is not good, then we will find another way, you have Samsung in South Korea, and we also have Boyuan in China.
