[Chapter 394: The Legend Continues]
"Selling 26.58 million sets of virtual helmets, Ren Hong 'lost' more than 50 billion (RMB) in 24 hours!!" -- Global Online
"The world's first day sales of 26.58 million sets of equipment, the virtual world is on fire! Ren Hong also 'lost miserably'! - NetEase Technology News
With the announcement of the first day of sales of Matrix Technology, it immediately ushered in hot reports from the media, and many news media are jokingly saying that the more popular the products of Matrix Technology are, the more "miserable" the loss. www.biquge.info It is worth mentioning that because the global sales network of matrix technology is not as perfect as that in Greater China, many regions need secondary agent sales, such as Wal-Mart and other supermarkets will also be on the shelves, and matrix technology will also have a certain amount of subsidies for it, the original price reduction, subsidies for agents and plus publicity costs, each piece of equipment sold will lose more than 300 US dollars on average.
Matrix technology this wonderful marketing means is also to make the world stunned and amazed, 150 million sets of equipment sold is equivalent to 45 billion US dollars to the market, this wonderful marketing means throughout the ages I am afraid that only the matrix technology that is not short of money can do. For the consumer group who directly buys, no matter what, the actual discount is certain, and it is impossible to find fault with it, except for sending 32 likes to Ren Hong.
A week later, the five major game developers under Matrix Technology also announced the latest sales data, Roberts's epoch-making SSS-level online game "Star Citizen" has sold a total of 26.5 million copies since the first day on August 7 last year, with the big sales of the client's "perception helmet", which has led to a sharp increase in the revenue of the third-party company of the "virtual network platform", "Star Citizen" has sold more than 14 million copies in the latest week, In one week, it exceeded the cumulative sales of 5 months in Greater China, and analysts expect Star Citizen to exceed 65 million points after the end of the year and the further popularity of the client.
Other third-party game developers, Ubisoft, Square Enix, R Star and Comele's 12 3S-level supergames are also ushering in a new sales boom on a global scale after 5 months since the release date in Greater China.
So far, the cumulative sales of 12 super titles have increased by 160%, and the average cumulative sales of each work have officially exceeded 8 million units. The cumulative sales of R-Star's Zhenshan masterpiece "GTA" are close to the sales of "Star Citizen", reaching a cumulative sales of 25.8 million, maintaining a double harvest of sales and word-of-mouth as always; The second is Ubisoft's topical "Assassin's Creed", which has surpassed 20 million cumulative sales in one fell swoop with the help of this new sales boom; Square Enix's Final Fantasy and Comele's Metal Gear Solid and Tomb Raider have both reached 15 million cumulative sales, and the remaining series of masterpieces have also achieved good success, although they have not yet reached the first threshold of 10 million phenomenal works, but it is only a matter of time before they finally exceed 10 million sales.
The five major game developers released the latest sales data, far beyond the estimates of Wall Street analysts, and the stock suddenly skyrocketed, but the most dizzying increase is still Facebook's stock, which now ranks second among the world's listed companies Facebook has officially exceeded the market value of 2 trillion US dollars, and is still more than 480 billion US dollars away from the first listed oil company in the Middle East - Saudi Aramco, although there is still a market value gap of nearly 500 billion US dollars, But Wall Street is very optimistic that Facebook will surpass Saudi Aramco, and there is no doubt that there is no limit to Facebook's progress ahead.
And Mark. Zuckerberg's personal worth has therefore become second only to Ren Hong, becoming the second largest individual on the Forbes global rich list, the gap between the first and second places is like a chasm, and the interesting thing is that the Forbes list estimates Ren Hong's worth only a string of question marks rather than specific numbers, and there is no number more convincing than a string of question marks.
And the wealth gap between the second and third places is also staggering.
Due to the impact of the "virtual world", Microsoft's market value has taken a big dive. Gates has also dropped from second place on the rich list to sixth place. Jeff, the largest individual shareholder of D-Wave, is the largest individual shareholder of D-Wave. Bezos's value soared as a result, and with Amazon's stake, Bezos became the third-ranked super-rich, followed by Larry, the two co-founders of Alphabet, in fourth and fifth place. Page and Sergey. Brin, and tech maniac Elon. Musk took advantage of the surge in SpaceX's stock and the electric car company Tesla to squeeze into the top 10 for the first time.
As the saying goes, comparison drives people forward, and these companies have achieved unprecedented success, except for Alphabet and Amazon, which are basically hugging the thigh of Matrix Technology, and the five major game developers and Facebook, as the first pioneers of the "virtual world", have finally achieved a rich return to match yesterday's efforts.
It is so fruitful that it makes people extremely red-eyed, hot-eyed, madly envious, jealous and hateful.
But more and more enterprises have joined the "virtual network" this new platform and emerging economic ecology, this series of data reports are all to the world's enterprises to tell, this is a huge gold mine, as the first people have made a lot of money here, but this gold mine is outrageous, even with the first people to excavate, it is still like an unmined virgin land.
The hot sales of the client's "perception helmet" injected a dose of strength into everyone, and there were no more scruples, and no one doubted that this wave would die in the middle.
The hesitation in the early stage, and then the crazy influx now, the huge contrast between the front and back is so strong. Third-party companies around the world that are preparing or announcing their entry into the "virtual network platform" are targeting the five major game developers under Matrix Technology, including Facebook, Amazon, and Alphabet, and they are not interested in the high-quality content of these five companies, let alone their stocks, but the talents of these five companies.
The five major game developers are oversaturated due to the tasks assigned by the parent company, and their actual size simply cannot accommodate such a large-scale production team, and the five major game developers cannot invest as much as before, and a large number of talents have been shelved, and those giant companies have suddenly targeted these talents.
The HR departments of the Big Five game developers have been very busy lately, and it is in response to the poaching of internal employees by companies around the world, not only are direct competitors EA and other game companies crazy to poach at high prices, but also supergiants are also eyeing this group of experienced people. Roberts assembled a hyperscale team of more than 5,000 people to build Star Citizen, and now at least 4,000 are due to overcapacity.
Several other game companies also have thousands of more people, obviously, the small five developers simply can't eat these talents, and the company can't let all of them display their talents, this group of people is the first batch of talents who have enjoyed the dividends under the overall strategic layout of Matrix Technology, and relatively speaking, they already have rich experience.
The five major game companies are also helpless to target themselves and poach from companies all over the world, and they also know that Miao Xiaoxiao can't accommodate so many people, so they have to retreat to the next best people, keep the best people, and let others dig up the second.
In the end, more than 9,000 talents came out of the five major game companies and were "carved up" by game companies or tech giants around the world. Ren Hong also learned about the poaching incident during this time, but let it develop, theoretically it was the matrix technology to pay to train them, and finally ran to other companies in less than a few years It seems to be a loss, but strictly speaking, it doesn't lose too much, and even earns, these people who go out go to other companies to let those companies smoothly settle in the "virtual network platform", third-party companies benefit, and matrix technology will also benefit from it.
Direct loss does not represent final loss.
Two weeks later, Matrix Technology ushered in an extremely important day, today all the core employees of the entire group company gathered in the headquarters square, everyone basically stopped working, and there were also a lot of media reports on the scene.
"Today in 2018, Matrix Technology was born in a university classroom, and a legend kicked off......"

"Just as we have never changed and never wavered in our slogan: Matrix Technology, change the world!"
“…… We're excited about all of them...... Be in the middle of it! ”
Ren Hong looked around the audience on the podium, the speech ended, Ren Hong closed his lips and stretched out his right hand with a smile, and gave a thumbs up to the employees in the audience, and the next moment all the employees stood up one after another, and tens of thousands of applause flooded the entire square in an instant, and it was boiling.
Even the reporters who came to the scene couldn't help but applaud, from the bottom of their hearts.
"This is indeed a legend, what a bloody moment, even I listen to the blood boiling, not to mention that as one of them, all of them are so proud, proud, no one will question their pride and achievement......" A foreign reporter looked at the audience raised their hands and applauded the staff, applause as for all sighed, at the same time, good professionalism also let him not forget to capture the scene, this is a scene worth remembering, with a photo freeze, a video capture this moment, the moment of the legend was recorded by the eternal set.
But the legend continues......
