Chapter 953 Celebration Party
After the signing of the letter of intent for private commercial cooperation, Yang Dongxu fled in an instant. Since there was really no way to cooperate in chip technology, other cooperation didn't matter. Naturally, he didn't want to continue to be a dog-licker, and he felt like he didn't recognize anyone after putting on his pants.
After returning to Hangzhou, he began to be busy with the affairs of Sunrise Technology every day.
At present, the number of people online in "Legend" has stabilized after the last self-explosion. Although the number of daily online users has declined compared to the popularity, it is still a popular online game that makes peers drool and grit their teeth to replace it.
At the same time, the newly launched "Swordsman Love" is on the verge of becoming a big hit. After all, martial arts is the dream of every Chinese son and daughter, and the rivers and lakes of revenge make people yearn for it infinitely.
After Yang Dongxu intervened in this game, although there was no substantial help from the technical aspect except spending money to upgrade the server. But the suggestions he gave for user experience were all full marks, so some settings were slightly modified.
On the day of the public beta, the number of registered users of Swordsman exceeded 500,000, and it went straight to one million on the second day. Although it only increased by 200,000 on the third day, it fell back a bit.
But anyone can see that this game only needs a little accumulation to replace Legend and become the most popular online game in China.
For this reason, because of the previous Legend incident, the company was a little cautious and did not dare to speak loudly, so Xuri Technology held a celebration banquet.
Because later, Legend Operation Chang Hao came to take over, and many game data and information in Jianxia, as well as some game writing, etc., many people from Legend also participated in it.
So it is not an exaggeration to say that the success of Jianxia has a contribution from the Legend Game Department, so when holding the celebration banquet, Yang Dongxu also emphasized the praise of the Legend Game Department.
The staff of the Legend Game Department, who were originally nervous and seemed to be unlucky, instantly swept away the previous haze. Although the impact caused by the Legend incident cannot be recovered economically, it has finally been completely turned over within the company. Everyone breathed a sigh of relief and began to welcome a new peak.
At the celebration banquet, Alibaba's Ma Fengyun also came. Now he and Yang Dongxu are friends. Although the celebration banquet held by friends is within the company, it is unreasonable not to come and congratulate on this happy event.
In addition to Ma Fengyun, Yu Qipeng from Minsheng also rushed back from other places. Since Yang Dongxu became a shareholder of Minsheng, it is no exaggeration to say that he played a key role in the expansion of Minsheng.
In particular, the smooth connection between Alipay and Minsheng instantly helped Minsheng increase at least 300,000 card users. Although it did not get the exclusive agent of Alipay, Alipay supports the binding and consumption of all bank cards.
But these 300,000 users are equivalent to 300,000 families, and they are all major consumer users, among which each person spends at least 5,000 online per year on average.
Given the current booming development of the domestic Internet and the consumption level of citizens, this consumption capacity is simply too considerable. So although it is a pity that there are not millions of users, the development potential can still be vigorously explored. Yu Qipeng naturally came to the celebration party very actively.
In addition to Ma Fengyun and Yu Qipeng, there are some other friends of Yang Dongxu, such as Ge Hong of Jiangnan Club. Wang Gang and Lan Lan, who got the news from somewhere, etc.
Yang Dongxu did not notify other friends either. After all, this is just a celebration party, not even the scale of an annual meeting. The game industry is a bit sensitive now. It is the best way to make a fortune quietly. There is no need to make it known to everyone and stand at the forefront of the storm as a target.
Others know that Xuri Technology makes money and holds two golden goose in its hands, but they know it, but they don't know how much it makes. If you are so ostentatious, besides the envy and jealousy of your peers, won't you provoke the scolding of other people in society?
The celebration party was held at Xinghai Hotel. It was not held here for the purpose of shining. Instead, it wanted the company's employees to feel the status, and it was also capital to brag.
Yang Dongxu had a lot of experience in this kind of psychological grasp. After all, he was a loser before, and he knew how to make it more face. In addition to not lacking this little money, and Xinghai Hotel is still his home court, it doesn't cost much more, so the whole celebration banquet process is perfect.
First of all, although the salary of Xuri Technology is not low, plus the year-end bonus, most of the company's employees get high salaries in the same industry.
But high salary does not mean high quality of life, not to mention a group of technical geeks. Therefore, the splendor of the star-rated hotel made them feel what luxury is, especially the pretty waitress, who served more enthusiastically after learning about their jobs and annual salaries.
Maybe after this celebration banquet, a few young couples can be promoted. This makes these technical geeks have the tendency to turn into werewolves and howl.
"Seeing you are so successful, I want to try my hand in the game industry." Ma Fengyun said half-jokingly.
However, this sentence touched the hearts of those who came to congratulate, whether it was Wang Gang, Lan Lan, or Yu Qipeng. Seeing that Xuri Technology was so successful, they really had such an idea.
At the celebration banquet today, Xuri Technology Company locked the door, except for a few people who took care of the server, and basically all the staff were present. The two game departments together, plus a few administrative and financial departments, have less than 60 people.
This is the result of Yang Dongxu's bottom-hunting Internet industry all over the world last year, getting too many programmers to fill, and forcibly expanding the number of technicians at Xuri Technology.
Originally, the entire company of Rising Sun Technology, including the boss Yang Dongxu, had less than 30 people. The two game departments, each with more than 10 people, were fully sufficient.
After all, neither Legend nor Swordsman were developed from scratch. Legend was a ready-made product, and there was not much to do in the subsequent continuous upgrades. Swordsman was a semi-finished product, and he only poached Chang Hao, a new team.
But it was these few people who created the value that made people jealous.
Legend has been the absolute leader in the revenue of the game industry every year for 99 consecutive years since its launch. This year's turnover exceeded 300 million, which is a sure thing, and this is the profit that has shrunk after the previous Legend incident, otherwise it would be even higher.
Swordsman may not exceed 300 million this year, but it is a sure thing next year, and it is a game that can be popular for several years and even set new records.
With so few people and such high value, no one would not be jealous.
And if these people knew that 361 was also owned by Yang Dongxu, they would not only be jealous, but would jump to their feet. 361 is also an absolutely successful case of a domestic Internet company.
It was established less than a year ago, and the number of employees is absolutely streamlined. Compared with large Internet companies such as portal websites, it is simply a small workshop.
However, this small workshop has been constantly attacking in less than a year. After taking over 123, it has directly established its position as the dominant browser in China. At present, venture capital has valued 361 as a browser alone at more than 1 billion.
If we add the important component Tieba, and the web games that have been planned for a while, it will go straight to 2 billion.
Everyone knows that the Internet industry is crazy about hyping concepts, but in a year when the Internet in the world is tightening its belt, 361 has gone against the tide and achieved a valuation of more than 2 billion in a year, which is simply a shock to a group of people.
And anyone can see that this is not the limit of 361. After all, it is a company that dominates the domestic browser. It is common sense that monopoly and huge profits are absolutely linked.
So as long as 361 does not go astray in the future and can easily realize some of these users, the company's valuation will skyrocket like a bubble. 5 billion is estimated to be unstoppable by then, and 10 billion, a number that even portal websites dare not hope for, is not impossible.
Therefore, many investors have gone crazy during this period, constantly squeezing into Xuri Technology and 361 Company, with valuations that are not money, one higher than the other.
There is no shortage of international venture capital companies, which makes Yang Dongxu happy but also a little depressed. He is preparing to raise funds for the listing of BMW China, and he has also revealed it to these venture capitals.
But when these venture capitals heard that his main market positioning is in Europe and the United States, they all shook their heads like rattles and disagreed. After all, Europe and the United States are where the kings of automobiles compete. Although BMW China has done well in China, they feel that they are looking for death in the European and American markets. The investment risk is too high.
And he does not want to go public and does not lack money for Xuri Technology and 361 Company, and even Dongxu Technology. These venture capitals are like crazy people who have taken stimulants and puffed in front of him every day, and various kneeling postures are in turn hoping that they will be able to loosen up for round A financing.
"If you are interested, you can invest some money yourself to try it." Yang Dongxu said with a smile.
Ma Fengyun shook his head. He just spoke out of his feelings, and at most he just complained, and he didn't really mean to do this. After all, Alibaba is doing well now, and he is going to achieve positive cash flow this year, and then he will fool a large amount of financing to directly start online shopping.
It is impossible to throw money into a field that he is not familiar with, even if he sees someone in this field with unlimited glory. But you can't just see the thief eating meat, but not the thief being beaten. Even if Yang Dongxu seems to have never been beaten, he has always been beating others.
However, although Ma Fengyun likes to fool people, he never fools himself. He envies those successful people in the industry, but he has a clear understanding of himself and knows what he wants, so he will not waver easily.
But he has his own clear direction, which others may not have. For example, Wang Gang and Lan Lan, as well as Yu Qipeng, are very excited and have already planned how to enter the industry in their hearts.
The only difference is that Wang Gang and Lan Lan are preparing to start a game company themselves, while Yu Qipeng is preparing to let his own financial department pay attention to see if there is a game company with good potential to invest in.
Wang Gang and Lan Lan are a husband-and-wife shop, they can make their own decisions on everything, and they do it as soon as they say. As the CEO of a group, Yu Qipeng had to conduct a risk assessment and then follow the normal process.
However, they also had a common idea, which was to see if they could find an opportunity to invest in Xuri Technology, or if not, squeeze into the door of 361.
While a few of them were talking and laughing, Yang Dongxu frowned and saw someone he didn't want to see.
