Gu Nanchen drove Pan Meng to a café and beckoned the waiter to bring two cups of latte.

"How many people are there in your studio now?" asked Gu Nanchen.

"There were seven of them, including me. ”

"Is this enough people? After all, in addition to game production, you have to find someone to operate it in the future. ”

"It's not enough. Pan Meng smiled bitterly and shook his head: "But we are now very tight on funds, it has been almost a year since the establishment of the studio, and there is no income, how can we afford to hire someone." ”

"How much money do you want to raise?" Gu Nanchen asked as he took a sip of coffee on the table.

"We have carefully calculated that if we want to complete the production of this game, plus the cost of the closed beta, we will need at least 5 million. If the number of players increases and wants to launch the open beta, it will still need about 10 million funds to maintain. Now a little better server, the price is very expensive. ”

"And how much are you willing to give away?"

"Forty-five percent! We are willing to sell forty-five percent of the shares in exchange for an investment of 15 million. ”

"Forty-five percent, 15 million investment?" Gu Nanchen thought in his heart.

This price is not expensive at all, and it can even be said that it is the price of cabbage. You know, only a year later, after the game was launched, this small company with only a few people was valued at hundreds of millions.

And this is just the beginning, after the game is popular and online players soar, the final purchase price has reached 500 million!

500 million? Even if it is ignited, it will have to be burned for a long time, right?

"What if I invest 30 million in you in exchange for 70 percent of the equity?"

"What? you invest in us?" Pan Meng's eyes widened in disbelief.

"What's the matter, still look down on me?" Gu Nanchen pointed to the Ferrari outside the floor-to-ceiling glass window: "See, that car is worth 5 million." 30 million is just a drizzle for me. ”

"No, it's not that I don't believe you can afford it, but in terms of shares, I need to discuss it with my classmates. ”

"Oh, are you afraid that I will occupy most of the shares and will affect the future development of the company?" Gu Nanchen said with a smile.

"Uh......" Seeing Gu Nanchen's concern at a glance, Pan Meng began to feel cramped and uneasy.

To be honest, Gu Nanchen's condition is not too much at all, after all, they are only a small company now, and the combined investment of several classmates is only a few hundred thousand.

Now someone has invested 30 million yuan at once, which is tantamount to a big pie falling from the sky! You know, he has already traveled all over the large and small investment companies, but no one is optimistic about them.

If they can't find investors, their studio will last for two months at most, and then they will have to break up. When the time comes, let alone 30 million, even the hundreds of thousands invested by yourself will be wasted.

However, Pan Meng is still very young, and there is still blood burning in his chest. Therefore, he firmly believes that his company will become a nationally renowned game company in the future, which is also the reason why he persists.

But if you lose control of the company because of the current predicament, what is the difference between it and working for someone else?

With the academic qualifications of several of them, if they don't start their own business and enter some large companies, there is still no problem in mixing up food and clothing.

"Don't worry, my equity only participates in the income, and does not participate in the company's decision-making, and you have the final say on how far this game company will develop in the future! Just like Taobao now." Seeing that Pan Meng was still hesitating, Gu Nanchen directly threw a bombshell.

"Really...... Really?" Pan Meng stammered.

"Of course it's true. ”

Gu Nanchen's decision was also well thought out. He invested in Pan Meng's company just to make money, and when the company was acquired and the shares were cashed out, he took the money and went to do something else, how could he have the energy to take care of other things?

Besides, I don't know anything about the mobile game industry, and if I really want him to take care of it, it will only backfire.

As for only 70 percent of the shares, he also thought about it. It is not impossible to take all the shares. It's just that in this way, Pan Meng and they have changed from entrepreneurs to part-time workers, and they will definitely not work for themselves with peace of mind, which is a bit more than worth the loss.

"I'll go back and talk to my classmates right away. Panmont hurriedly stood up.

"Don't be in a hurry, I won't run. Gu Nanchen laughed: "Let me see how your game is first?"

"Oh, okay, okay. Pan Meng hurriedly opened his backpack and took out his laptop from it.

"Mr. Gu, this is the game we make, you can try it first. Unconsciously, Pan Meng had already added a general word to Gu Nanchen's title.

"Don't call me Mr. Gu, I'm much older than you, just call me Brother Nan in the future." ”

"Okay, Brother Nan. ”

"This is the game you made?" Gu Nanchen clicked on an icon on the desktop, and after trying it out, his brows furrowed.

"yes, it's not bad, it's a bit rudimentary now, but we'll improve it step by step. ”

Gu Nanchen patted his head, he now understood why Hou Yaohua and Lin Hong were not optimistic about Pan Meng and them.

Now Panmeng's game is a world of difference from the popular "Bubble Wars" in his previous life.

The controls are complex and poorly made, and the whole picture is just a few bubbles running around the map, and there is no fun at all.

"Can I tell me what I think?" Gu Nanchen shook his mouse.

"Well, you say. ”

"I don't know what kind of idea you base on this game, but I really can't compliment it now! The user's experience is quite poor, and even if it is successfully launched, it is estimated that it will be difficult to become popular! To put it bluntly, it's a piece of shit!"

"What a piece of shit?!" Pan Meng, who was still immersed in the joy of finding an investor, seemed to be drenched on the head with a bucket of ice water at this moment.

"My game, really...... Is it really that bad?" Seeing that even Gu Nanchen said the same, Pan Meng's self-confidence completely fell to the bottom.

"It's a little bit worse, but it's not hopeless. Gu Nanchen pondered for a moment: "Now the prototype of this game is not bad, just improve it a little." ”

"How can I improve it?" asked Pan Meng hurriedly.

"You see, your idea of eating small bubbles is very good, but the speed between big bubbles and small bubbles is the same, which is unreasonable. ”

Gu Nanchen had played this mobile game in his previous life, so he could tell it casually: "This will only lead to one result, in a game, the gap between the big bubble and the small bubble will only get bigger and bigger, and the small bubble has no chance to turn over and escape at all, which will make the player a lot less fun." ”

"Well, that makes sense. Pan Meng nodded: "We have also thought about this problem, we are going to add thorn balls to the map, once the big bubbles touch the thorn balls, they will automatically split, giving the little bubbles who were eaten in the early stage have some chances." ”

"It's not enough. Gu Nanchen shook his head: "Why don't you adjust your speed? The bigger the weight of the bubble, the slower it will run, so it's fair." ”

"The heavier the weight, the slower you run?" Hearing this suggestion, Pan Meng's eyes suddenly lit up, and the eyes that looked at Gu Nanchen were completely different.

If just now he still thought that Gu Nanchen was just a rich guy or a rich second generation, and now he thinks that Gu Nanchen is a game master with real ideas.

A simple idea solves a problem that has been bothering them for a long time.

PS: This is a fundamentally real event, their team was really unpopular before it was acquired by Giant, of course, this book has Gu Nanchen. Also, in order to avoid disputes, the name was changed.
