Chapter 327 Korean Netzen

There is a long history of Internet bragging. There are two aspects that everyone likes to brag about the most. The first is the company's running water, and the second is the company's valuation and financing.

If an Internet company publishes news on online media and venture capital platforms, claiming that it has raised tens of millions and has a valuation of hundreds of millions, then both of these amounts must be discounted by 20% or even 10%.

Li Mu’s routine is different from this group of people. He doesn’t need to cheat in the market to attract attention, and he doesn’t need to rely on cheating to raise the company’s valuation, so he didn’t announce the B round financing at all, even Xu Jiaming The Mingcheng Capital has not released any news to the outside world. People in the industry have no idea that the two companies have completed tens of millions of financing in private.

For Mr. Li of Baidu, it is a pity to miss Muye Technology. Now that Muye Technology has made Happy Farm the most popular game in the country, the envy and hatred in his heart can hardly be described in words, because of his own judgment. A mistake, Baidu hastily withdrew from Muye Technology, which made him unable to raise his head in front of the capital behind him.

Tan Yaocheng's mentality is slightly better. He is not the CEO of Baidu, so he doesn't have to bear the huge mistake of Baidu's withdrawal from Muye Technology. Seeing that Muye Technology will soon be able to generate large-scale income through Happy Farm, he comforts President Li, saying : "Actually, Li Mu is very independent in his work. If we don't quit Muye Technology, he may not directly put Happy Farm under the name of Muye Technology. Look at his newly established Storm Entertainment, Muye Technology only accounts for it. 20% of the shares, if he took out Happy Farm to set up a new company and invested 20% of the shares with Muye Technology, he could justifiably import the users of Muye Technology, but we only had 10% of the shares of Muye Technology at that time. It can only account for 2% of the new company, which is not meaningful."

Mr. Li nodded: "That's right, Li Mu is a shrewd kid. He didn't get us away. He couldn't bring Happy Farm to Muye Technology to do it."

Speaking, Mr. Li asked him curiously, "How much shares does Li Mu have in Alipay?"

"100%." ​​Tan Yaocheng said: "At that time, this company provided payment channels for 3321, and no one thought that it would be integrated with Muye Technology now."

Mr. Li said: "I'm really convinced by this kid. Where did he learn these tricks? Look how many shells he has played now? Muye Technology, EasyTing Technology, Muye Image, Storm Entertainment, Alipay, the capital structure of the shells of several companies is different, and the fields they cover are also different. The most important thing is that they can complement each other in resources. At the beginning of the business, the shells of the company have been superbly played. Will it be possible in the future? "

Tan Yaocheng shrugged and smiled: "In short, we can play better than us."

Mr. Li sighed: "Our business is still too single, otherwise, I also want to get a sub-business and put it into a shell company, so as to get rid of the shackles of capital on us.

"

...

In the afternoon of the same day, Lin Qingya, who had arrived in Seoul, the capital of South Korea (the city had not been renamed Seoul at this time), arrived at the headquarters of Netzen Korea with the newly established BD department. Meet Kim Yoo Kwon.

Jin Youquan attaches great importance to this business negotiation with Huaxia Company, because he has seen that the "Legend" developed by the competitor Actoz has already created an admirable good result in China. At present, the popularity of "Legend" in China has already It greatly exceeded the estimates of the development company and the agency operating company. The raging stance made Netzen very envious. They felt that the "Miracle MU" developed by themselves, in terms of world architecture, game playability, visual effects, etc. , are much better than "Legend". If this game is put into operation in China, it will definitely surpass "Legend".

But the biggest problem is that no company from Huaxia has ever expressed interest in "Miracle MU".

Shanda Network is now concentrating on the operation of "Legend", and it is impossible to be distracted by the second game, and NetEase is also busy developing its own game. The Japanese cartoon online game "Magic Baby" represented by Netstar has just started the internal test. Besides, there seems to be no game operation company in China that can be called a name. You must know that the current domestic game operation is the most test of promotion ability. If the promotion ability is not in place, a good online game can have 20,000 to 30,000 players. High fragrance, but if the promotion ability is strong enough, even a junk online game can reach an astonishing magnitude of hundreds of thousands of users or even millions of users. In Jin Youquan's eyes, "Legend" is such a junk online game. .

With rough graphics, a simple world structure, simple character types and an upgrade system, the game "Legend" is a third-rate outdated game in the eyes of top Korean game engineers, which can be caught by Jin Youquan and many top game engineers. What I can't figure out is why "Legend" can be so popular in China.

In the end, they attributed the credit to Shanda, believing that a good operator can play an infinite role.

Originally, Jin Youquan also screened companies suitable for operating "Miracle MU" in Huaxia's Internet companies, but unfortunately, he screened these companies in private, and did not find who is more suitable for operating "Miracle MU". game.

Tengxun once entered Jin Youquan's field of vision. In his opinion, Tengxun has a very large user base. If he converts user resources to make games, it should be very promising. However, Tengxun does not have any experience or actions in making games yet. , At present, it seems that it is almost insulated from online games. Even if Jin Youquan thinks they are suitable, it is meaningless, because the other party has not yet prepared for this.

Baidu was once the object that Jin Youquan hoped to cooperate with, but similar to Tengxun, Baidu did not show any intention to make games.

After several times of understanding, Jin Youquan even found that it was difficult for them to find a suitable operator in Huaxia to carry forward the game "Miracle MU".

The Tieba under Muye Technology is indeed very popular, but he doesn't understand Chinese, only knows that Tieba is a Chinese community, and he doesn't even know what kind of community it is, so he has passed it in his heart without knowing much about it, so that he doesn't even know Muye. Technology has launched a new product - Happy Farm.

This time, Lin Qingya came to Netzen to discuss the agency rights of "Miracle MU" in the capacity of Baofeng Entertainment. Jin Youquan knew almost nothing about this "Storm Entertainment", so she was not very interested, but after all, it was the first one. Huaxia Internet Company, which took the initiative to talk to Netzen about the agency rights of "Miracle MU", if the attitude of Netzen's side is not good, it is afraid that it will have a bad impact on China, so Jin Youquan had to go through the motions.

When Jin Youquan and Lin Qingya sat facing each other, he was still wondering why the company called "Storm Entertainment" would send such a young woman to negotiate with him, she seemed to be in her twenties Three or four years old? Or twenty-five or six? Does she understand the Internet? Does she know the game? Does she have enough power to call the shots on this table?

Forty-year-old Jin Youquan, in the first impression of meeting Lin Qingya, has some contempt for Lin Qingya.

Out of business courtesy, Jin Youquan did not show this contempt. After shaking hands with Lin Qingya and introducing each other, he threw the first question to Lin Qingya: "Hello, Miss Lin, I heard that your company wants to Huaxia represents our "Miracle MU", can you briefly introduce the basic situation of your company?"

The translator translated the other party's question into Chinese. After listening to Lin Qingya, she nodded and said with a slight smile: "Our company has just been established in Yanjing this month. The company's registered capital is 2 million, and its business scope is in the field of Internet culture and entertainment. Software development, operation, and production and sales of related peripherals.”

As soon as Jin Youquan heard that it was a newly established company, he almost wanted to get up and leave. He himself somewhat despised Huaxia's Internet companies and game companies, thinking that they would lag behind Korean companies in terms of technology and thinking, not to mention Netzen He is also one of the top game development companies in South Korea. Even if it is a well-known company in China, he has few eyes on it, let alone a newly registered company.

Jin Youquan's expression was a little ugly. Almost at this moment, he completely rejected the idea of ​​Storm Entertainment's agent "Miracle MU", and the previous professional smile disappeared. Looking at Lin Qingya, he said, "We I hope to be able to cooperate with companies with sufficient user base and strong online and offline promotion capabilities, your company has just been established, I think it is difficult for you to operate "Miracle MU"."

Lin Qingya smiled indifferently and said, "Mr. Jin, we haven't given you a more detailed introduction to our company. The second largest shareholder of our company is Muye Technology of Huaxia."

Jin Youquan was stunned and asked, "How much shares does Muye Technology hold in your company?"

"20%."

Jin Youquan's expression looks a little better. Muye Technology's share in this Storm Entertainment proves that Storm Entertainment can obtain the required resources from Muye Technology. Although Muye Technology does not have the genes of game operation, it is still at least tens of millions of users. The community is still somewhat basic, so he said: "As far as I know, the main product of Muye Technology is a Chinese community. Now that you are making games, how many users of Muye Technology can successfully convert?"

Lin Qingya smiled and asked him, "Mr. Jin, how much do you know about Muye Technology?"

Jin Youquan said: "I know that Makino Technology has the largest Chinese community in the world, but you and I both know how strong this statement is. We also have a very famous forum in South Korea, claiming to be the largest Korean language forum in the world, but its users But there are only millions of netizens in China.”

Lin Qingya said: "After all, the population covered by Chinese is larger than that of Korean. Muye Technology has tens of millions of users in China alone, and is now one of the companies with the most registered users and active users in China. There will be no more than three companies in China that are comparable to Muye Technology."

Jin Youquan nodded and asked Lin Qingya, "Does your company or Muye Technology have any experience in operating games?"

In Jin Youquan's eyes, Storm Entertainment has the background of Makino Technology, and he can barely give him a good look, but in his heart, he still can't accept that "Miracle MU" is handed over to such a company to operate, so he asked I don't want Lin Qingya to answer this question, but I just hope she can understand the huge gap between her company and the excellent online game "Miracle MU".

At this time, Lin Qingya asked him confidently, "Mr. Jin, have you heard of Happy Farm?"

"Happy Farm?" Jin Youquan frowned, and the translator also translated these four words literally. After listening to him, he thought that Lin Qingya was really asking a question about a certain farm, so he replied with a look of disinterest: "I have lived in Seoul since I was a child. My father is an army officer and my mother is a university professor. I have never been in contact with the farm since I was born, and I don't know much about the farm."

Lin Qingya saw that his answer was extraordinarily superior, and she couldn't help laughing and said, "Mr. Jin, you misunderstood, what I said about Happy Farm is not a real farm that farms or breeds, but it was just launched by Muye Technology some time ago. A farm online game."

"Farm game?" Jin Youquan frowned even more: "Can a rural farm be made into an online game? If it's a stand-alone game that runs on a handheld console, I might be able to understand, after all, there is a Japanese "Ranch Story" This game is here, and it is not impossible to develop a farm game, but how much space can a farm online game have? How many users does this game have? Thirty thousand? Fifty thousand?"

350,000 is already an optimistic estimate of Jin Youquan. In the past few years, he has seen many games that have not exceeded 10,000 users from launch to shutdown.

Lin Qingya pursed her lips and smiled reservedly at this time, and said, "Mr. Jin has underestimated the user base of this game. Our game now has nearly 40 million users and more than 1,500 daily active users. Ten thousand."

"How is that possible!" Jin Youquan almost jumped up from his chair in shock, and said dumbfounded: "Forty million users, 15 million daily active users? Miss Lin, are you kidding me?"

Lin Qingya smiled and said, "If I'm joking, the joke is meaningless. If Mr. Jin takes the time to learn about the game "Happy Farm", he must know if I'm joking."

Jin Youquan's expression immediately became serious, looking at Lin Qingya and asking seriously, "How many days is Miss Lin going to stay in Seoul?"

Lin Qingya said, "It depends on what we're talking about, but it shouldn't take more than three or five days."

Jin Youquan immediately said, "Can you be here for the time being today? I'll ask our staff to arrange accommodation for you. I think we need some time here to understand the "Happy Farm" you mentioned first."

40 million registered users and 15 million daily active users, if Muye Technology can really make such a great game, and owns 20% of the shares in this company, then Netzen will choose to cooperate with them without hesitation. , even kneeling and licking at all costs. (To be continued.)
