Chapter 682 Poor Path Project (Ask for a Monthly Pass!)

Thursday, October 13.

Tenda headquarters.

Assistant Xin led Qiu Hong to the reception room and prepared tea.

"You drink tea first, President Pei will be there soon."

Qiu Hong nodded quickly: "Okay, okay."

When Assistant Xin left the reception room, Qiu Hong yearned for Tengda Games while drinking tea.

After lecturing to "Mr. Ma" some time ago, Qiu Hong began to prepare to reconnect with his friends in the circle, and wanted to start another company to develop new projects and regroup.

However, what exactly the new project will do has not been determined for a long time, and naturally it is impossible to convince investors to invest money.

For Qiu Hong, he did have a deep accumulation in krypton gold online games, but it was basically exhausted when his last venture failed.

The cultural industry is a highly subjective industry, especially the game industry.

When you succeed, you will be full of ambition and feel that you are right everywhere; but when you fail, you will fall into deep self-doubt and feel that you are worthless.

Qiu Hong is now in this kind of struggle. He wants to start a new company and develop a successful game again, but he is not prepared enough, so he feels lost.

Just at this time, "Mr. Ma" called again and invited him to Jingzhou, saying that he had a cooperation matter with Tengda officials and needed to discuss it in person.

No details were given on the phone.

If it is another company, Qiu Hong may not think about it, because after starting his own business, he will work for others. From being in charge of others to being managed by others, there will always be a feeling of "depending on others".

But after all, it is Tenda Group and has the relationship with Mr. Ma, so Qiu Hong decided to come.

When I came to Jingzhou before, I always went straight to the cafe near Handong University, but this time Qiu Hongcai finally entered the interior of Tenda Group.

Spacious workstations, enviable benefits, and the full mental state of the employees...

All made Qiu Hong feel sincerely envious.

Because he also started a company himself, he knows the hardships involved, and also knows how difficult it is to build such a huge group as Tengda.

It is even more incredible to be able to ensure the enthusiasm and combat effectiveness of all employees of the company under the premise of providing such a favorable working environment and a relaxed working atmosphere.

In short, after seeing the scene inside Tengda, Qiu Hong felt that he was not in vain.

As for the specific cooperation to be discussed?

Qiu Hong really couldn't imagine it.

Because Qiu Hong is very clear about his own position. Although he is a little famous in the domestic game circle, he is only limited to the krypton gold online game field. He may have made some money, but he is not comparable to Tenda in all aspects.

Tenda doesn't seem to need himself at all.

Just as he was thinking about it, there were slight footsteps coming from outside the reception room, and he vaguely heard Assistant Xin say: "Mr. Pei, Mr. Qiu is already waiting in the reception room."

Qiu Hong immediately sat up straight subconsciously.

President Pei is here!

For this legendary figure, Qiu Hong has only heard his name but never seen him, so he still has such little expectations for some reason.

Hearing a knock on the door outside the reception room, Qiu Hong hurriedly said, "Please come in."

Assistant Xin opened the door of the reception room, and "President Ma" walked in.

"President Pei, call me anytime you have any questions." After Assistant Xin finished speaking, he closed the door and left.

Qiu Hong had already stood up and was ready to shake hands with Boss Pei, but when he saw the current situation, he was stunned for a moment.

Question marks floated over his head.

? ? ?

Pei Qian looked at Qiu Hong who had just stood up, with a dull and bewildered expression, and smiled slightly: "Mr. Qiu, long time no see."

Qiu Hong didn't recall it for a while.

Isn't this Mr. Ma?

Then why does this assistant who seems to have a high status in the company call him "Boss Pei"?

Qiu Hong vaguely realized something, but felt a little unbelievable because he couldn't figure out the reason and logic behind it.

Pei Qian sat down on the sofa. At this time, there is no need for Qiu Hong to guess again. He just told the prepared remarks and got to the point as soon as possible.

"Mr. Qiu, I'm sorry first. My real identity is not Mr. Ma from Yuanmeng Venture Capital. I'm Pei Qian himself."

"As for why you call yourself Mr. Ma...the main reason is that you want to get in touch with you in a different capacity, communicate and discuss, get to know each other, and decide whether there is any possibility of cooperation between us."

There were fewer question marks on Qiu Hong's head, and a dazed expression appeared on his face.

In other words, Mr. Pei was not actually listening to my lectures, but was conducting an anonymous investigation and interview?

It's like the headmaster would listen in on the teacher's lecture in order to understand the teacher's true level?

This explains why Mr. Pei came in contact with him wearing the vest of "Mr. Ma".

However, Qiu Hong still has doubts.

I am just a very ordinary game producer. Although I have a slight reputation, there are a lot of domestic game circles.

What kind of virtue and ability is there to make Boss Pei go to great lengths to test whether there is any possibility of cooperation? Mr. Pei paid the tuition at that time!

What exactly is the cooperation?

Pei Qian didn't intend to dwell on this topic for too long, so he had to hurry up and move on.

"President Qiu, let me talk about our cooperation plan first, you can think about it."

"The project I want to do is called the 'Poor Path Project'."

"This is a support plan for domestic stand-alone game and independent game developers. It is committed to finding those domestic stand-alone game and independent game development teams that need help and providing them with the necessary development funds."

"I would like to invite you to be the person in charge of this 'poor project' and become an executive of Tenda Group. All salaries and benefits are on par with those in charge of other departments, but there is one thing to emphasize: your bonus income is not It will be linked to the income of the 'poor project'."

"Your bonus depends on: the ratio of the number of profitable projects to the total number of projects, the lower the ratio, the more your bonus."

"As for the specific amount, I can't disclose it, but I can guarantee that it will not be lower than your previous bonus income when you were the master planner of a successful project. .”

"Of course, in the future, if you feel dissatisfied and want to leave Mr. Qiu, or ask for a salary adjustment, these can be discussed."

"That's probably the case. If Mr. Qiu has any questions, just ask."

Pei Qian took a sip of tea and looked at Qiu Hong with a smile.

As for why it is called "The Poor Project" instead of the "Angel Project" or "Savior Project", it is obviously because Pei Qian hopes that this project will come to an end soon, and the name must have a good sign.

Qiu Hong was silent.

It's not that there are no questions, but there are too many questions, and I don't know where to start!

In fact, many domestic companies are doing similar things.

The two types of companies that have done the most, one is investment companies or so-called "incubators" that specialize in the game industry, and the other is game channels and platforms.

Although the ESRO official platform is the largest and most authoritative platform, it does not mean that other game platforms do not exist. For example, the application market of Shenhua mobile phone is also a kind of game channel and platform.

These two types of companies carry out similar support programs obviously because this matter is profitable.

There are many start-up companies in the game industry that exploded overnight, especially in the past two years when the mobile Internet exploded. The myth of mobile game companies getting rich overnight has been repeatedly staged. If you really invest in a successful mobile game company, the return on investment will be as high as It will make all investors envious.

Although there are many investment companies, there is a threshold for investment. Some investment companies do not understand the game industry, so naturally they dare not invest in these small companies in the game industry.

Therefore, investment companies specializing in the game industry came into being.

The platform supports some start-up game companies, basically for the same purpose: To put it mildly, it is to win more and better games for its own platform, but in the final analysis it is to make money.

Therefore, these companies have one characteristic: they have indeed invested in and supported many companies, but most of them are online game companies and mobile game companies.

The reason is simple, this is what makes money!

Investing in this kind of company is high risk and high return.

Investing in stand-alone games and independent games is high risk and has no return.

Investment companies have the nature of seeking advantages and avoiding disadvantages. It is quite normal to invest in online games instead of stand-alone games, mobile games and not indie games.

But Mr. Pei's "Poor Plan" is actually specifically aimed at stand-alone games and independent games?

Moreover, as the person in charge, the bonus and performance are not linked to the income of the project?

On the contrary, is it inversely proportional to the value of "the number of profitable projects / the total number of projects"?

Doesn't that mean that the more total projects invested and the fewer profitable projects, the more bonuses?

Are reverse incentives okay?

Isn't this encouraging yourself to invest in more junk projects without screening?

This confused Qiu Hong.

As for income, sincerity has been fully drawn.

Before Qiu Hong started his business, he was the chief planner of a project with a monthly turnover of over 100 million. That was the highest income stage of his career, but his monthly bonus was only a little over 100,000.

Because the company's bonus rule is that the entire development team can only get 3% of the project's net income, and this so-called "monthly turnover of over 100 million" projects is actually mostly bragging, not really a net income of over 100 million.

It is necessary to deduct the share with the channel and platform (the channel takes the bulk), deduct the marketing expenses (a large part of this data is generated by the company), and at that time the development team was relatively large, and these bonuses were shared by the entire project. , everyone has a share. Although the proportion of the main planner will be high, it is also limited.

Computing all the miscellaneous things, the money I really get compared to the money earned by the project is a drop in the bucket, not even the soup.

That's why Qiu Hongcai was so eager to jump out and start a business.
