Chapter 130: Is This Business Profitable or Lost?
Su Chun was stunned: "Aren't we going to sign a contract with the last company?" After signing the contract, shouldn't you take another four or five million? ”
Liu Qingfeng smiled helplessly: "No, the last company we are going to go to is not to collect money, but to send money." Today is the day when their bloody legend open beta is launched, and our boss plans to use 10 million to invest in their game and obtain half of the income from domestic operations. ”
"Stake? Then this is a good thing, Brother Feng, why are you still full of sadness? ”
"Because investment is risky, who knows if the 10 million invested will be able to earn back the principal?"
"That'...... So it's so dangerous, why not take a stake in the previous game company? Didn't you say that the games produced by the four game companies that signed with us are already among the top 10 games in China? Wouldn't it be more stable to invest in them? ”
"I also want to know why."
With these words, everyone's puzzled eyes all fell on Lin Yiming.
Liu Qingfeng can understand the boss's concept of investing and developing the game sector, but he can't understand why he wants to invest in a game that has no clear future.
Lin Yiming smiled and said: "Those four games have become famous, their income and shareholders are very stable, I asked for shares when they were the most profitable, you said that the game chamber of commerce will not sit on the ground and raise the price?" Let's put it this way, if I invest 10 million in them, I'm afraid they will give me less than 10% of the shares. But if I take a stake in a game that is currently short of money but has great potential, I can easily get 50% of the shares, and if he becomes popular in the future, I will be able to get it lying down and count the money! ”
Liu Qingfeng objected: "But how do you judge whether he has potential?" ”
"You just have to play his game and you know he has a lot of potential."
"Oh! That's it! Liu Qingfeng finally understood!
But if Chen Yuanqiao, the game developer of the hot-blooded legend, heard this, it is estimated that a mouthful of old blood will be spewed out by Lin Yiming angrily!
Do you know the game?
Phew! You're a! I'm afraid you don't even know what a monster looks like!
After breakfast, the four of them walked towards the company of the bloody legend.
The bloody legend was developed by Sheng Xiao Company, before the Internet bubble was generated, Sheng Xiao Company was a smash hit, but last year it was not exempt from vulgarity, which put the company in a difficult situation, and this blood legend was the last attempt they made with the company's last bit of funds!
If the Bloody Legend can become popular, they can turn over!
If not, they will quit the Internet industry forever, just like other losers!
Although the Sheng Xiao Company is not as good as it used to be, the emaciated camel is still bigger than the horse, so when they arrive at the Sheng Xiao Company, they can still see a decent company.
And the so-called decency - Liu Qingfeng and others feel that as long as the company is a normal office building, rather than renting a private house like them, it is "decent"!
Sheng Xiao Company cares about this cooperation very much, so as soon as Lin Yiming and his party entered the door, someone immediately greeted them!
"I've admired the daimyo for a long time! I have admired the daimyo for a long time! A little fat man in a suit wearing glasses crossed over to Lin Yiming, who was the leader, and held Liu Qingfeng's hand directly: "You are Mr. Lin of Happy Network, right?" He looks really handsome and chic, young and promising! ”
The crowd was silent.
The little fat man slowly sensed that something was wrong with the atmosphere, and his confused little eyes swept over Lin Yiming and the others, until Liu Qingfeng politely introduced to him: "This is Lin Yiming, the president of our Happy Network." ”
"Uh......"
"Hello Mr. Chen, I am the head of the Happy Network, Lin Yiming." Lin Yiming introduced himself again, after two days of tight schedule, he had become accustomed to everyone directly passing him and shaking hands with Liu Qingfeng directly.
You can't blame anyone else, you can only blame him for looking too young!
Chen Yuanqiao was stupid, he looked at Lin Yiming blankly, and he didn't know where to put his hand, but Lin Yiming still shook hands with him very politely.
When Chen Yuanqiao came back to his senses from the shock, he said: "This Mr. Lin is really 'young and promising'!"
"You're welcome."
"Sit down, let's talk about buying shares."
"Hmm."
Lin Yiming sat down and just asked Liu Qingfeng to take out the contract, but unexpectedly, as soon as he looked up, he saw that Chen Yuanqiao's secretary also took out a contract!
This......!
The two sides looked at each other, and after a while, they couldn't help but smile.
This is the first time Lin Yiming has received a contract from the other party.
In the past, in order to gain the initiative, he deliberately printed the contract first, so that he could lead the other party by the nose. But I didn't expect that Chen Yuanqiao also thought the same way today.
Looking at the contract in Chen Yuanqiao's hand, it is obviously much thicker than him, and there are obviously a lot of conditions to negotiate with him.
But it doesn't matter.
After all, if you invest 10 million, you will be lying down and counting money at 500 million a year for the next ten years!
"This is what our company requires."
"This is also the requirement of our company, Mr. Lin, if you think there is anything unreasonable, you can also delete and delete it."
The two knew each other's thoughts, so they smiled awkwardly and handed each other the contract.
The contract made by Sheng Xiao has a total of 23 pages, and it is more difficult to review them one by one, but it probably means that Lin Yiming understands that Sheng Xiao Company has taken a fancy to their happy live broadcast platform, and also wants to strive for the most conspicuous advertising space. Moreover, it is the best advertising space without paying for advertising.
After reviewing the contract of the Bloody Legend, Lin Yiming put it aside, while Chen Yuanqiao, who was sitting opposite him, had already finished drinking tea.
He smiled and said: "Mr. Chen, I won't tell you, I ran four game companies in the past two days and asked them for 10 million advertising fees, so I dared to come to invest in your family's bloody legend." You see, people have to pay for advertising space with us, how did I get here, but I paid for it myself and gave you the advertising space? ”
Chen Yuanqiao, this shrewd little fat man calmly took a sip of tea and said slowly: "Mr. Lin, you have also played our Bloody Legend, you should know that our Bloody Legend is different from other games." And since ancient times, whenever a new thing appears in front of the world, there are only two ends, either to fight the street to death, or to fire all over the country! Since you want to invest 10 million shares, then you definitely don't want it to hit the street, so I can only trouble you and do everything you can to promote the bloody legend for us. ”
"But if other companies want advertising space, they will pay 3 million advertising fees, why are you embarrassed not to give it?"
"But you are the shareholder of our bloody legend, not someone else's!"
This fat man!
Wishful thinking is enough!
It seems that shareholders are not so easy to do.
Seeing him groaning, Chen Yuanqiao's heart suddenly went up and down: "Mr. Lin, don't you want the bloody legend to make a little more?" The more you earn, the more money you get, don't you? ”
"That's the truth, but I just feel a little bit ...... loss."
"No, you're not going to lose! During our Bloody Legend closed beta, you grabbed the number and logged in for the first time, and obviously you also saw its future potential, didn't you? As long as we increase the publicity in the early stage, this game will definitely be popular all over the country! ”
Lin Yiming smiled slightly: "Mr. Chen, you seem to be full of confidence in your game?" ”
"Yes!"
It's either red or pounced!
Is there still a compromise option?
Lin Yiming played with the teacup in his hand and thought about it for a long time.
He felt a loss.
10 million, wouldn't it be over if you bought a 50% domestic equity? Why do you want to lose his advertising space?
Although as long as you are willing to spend money on advertising, no matter how garbage a game is, it can attract countless money, but think about it, if his advertising space sells for 3 million, Chen Yuanqiao can get an advertising space without a dime, can he not lose money?
He had to ask for something......
"It's not impossible to advertise the bloody legend for free......"
Chen Yuanqiao's face was happy!
"But I want your game team to help me with a project!" Lin Yiming immediately had an idea.
Chen Yuanqiao was stunned, he still knew the value of the project very well, the smallest project has hundreds of thousands, and the larger project is several million, and now Lin Yiming wants his team to do the project for free, how do you think about it, it seems to be a bit of a loss?
