Qiu Xin, director of the second game development department, is responsible for the development of "love under the sword online". However, the game has encountered bottlenecks, but he is still very interested in the merger of valve. Once the merger is completed, the company's game development team will be stronger. Moreover, valve has successful experience in the development of "half live", which they can learn from. Now I agree, but like Cui Ming, the "second world" must be dominant.
Wu Gang, director of the third game development department. Now that the upsurge of "plants vs zombies" is over, with only tens of thousands of people online every day, Wu Gang suggests that Lin Feng give it free of charge to attract a little popularity, retain players and accumulate popularity for the next game. He also agreed with the plan. In Wu Gang's view, it must be the "second world"“ "Second world" has enough funds and "cloud computing" that the outside world does not have, which is necessary for valve's "World War".
Of course, this merger also made Wu Gang feel a sense of crisis. Now the most embarrassing position of the company is his second game development department. If he doesn't come up with a new leisure game, I'm afraid he will either leave or change his leadership.
The fourth game development department, Cohen, is very supportive of the old company's joining, so that he can give up the so-called position of the fourth game development department director to gable, and take the time to continue to study his "cloud computing". He is a research maniac, not a power maniac, what position, money is not important to him. He only cares about whether he can concentrate on his research. As for the material aspect, he can eat and clothe with dignity.
Wu Zhaopu also agreed with this. In this way, the status of "the second world" in the game industry will expand from a single online game to the single game market. What's more, with "half live", valve company is also famous in the field of computer games. If we can merge and take our own company as the dominant position, it will only be good for the "second world" but not bad.
"I agree, Mr. Lin. But in this way, I'm afraid our company's next main direction is the world war. However, Mr. Lin, I'm afraid there will be no extra funds for the acquisition of Sega's hardware development department you proposed earlier. " Wu Zhaopu reminded. According to Wu Zhaopu's financial analysis, the "second world" now has US $100 million available for mobilization, which is just enough to complete the preliminary development of World War II. However, there is no surplus fund for the acquisition of Sega hardware development department.
In Wu Zhaopu's mind, he does not agree with the acquisition of Sega's hardware development department. The company does not need to enter the home game market now. The merger of valve just allows the company (mainly Lin Feng) to give up this plan. However, the final decision is still in the hands of Lin Feng. But Wu believes that Lin Feng must know how to choose.
After some meditation, Lin Feng nods to agree with Wu Zhaopu's suggestion.
"Well, it's mainly World War. I will purchase Sega hardware development department in my own name. " Lin Feng will never give up this opportunity. When you think about the global market share of PSP and NDSL, Lin Feng is very excited. Besides, handheld devices are also the trend of the future.
Wu Zhaopu was speechless for a while, but he didn't care about it. Anyway, Lin Feng has a lot of money and doesn't care so much. In the U.S. stock market, he made $750 million, which can be tossed with him.
After passing the resolution, the rest is the negotiation with gable, how to merge the two companies, the shareholding ratio of the two companies after the merger, and the name of the company. However, Lin Feng naturally ignored these complicated but careless negotiations and left them to Wu Zhaopu to talk to each other slowly, while he finally waited for his signature.
While Wu Zhaopu, Gabriel and others were grinning, Li Zhiyou, Lin Zhihui, Huang Meixi, yuan shayangli, and Liu Yifei made the advertising propaganda film of Linfeng's "phantom" MP3 player.
Of course, the protagonist in mainland China's advertisements is naturally Liu Yifei. It has to be admitted that although Liu Yifei took over the commercial film for the first time, she was very generous in the face of the camera. As a photographer, she praised that she had a natural desire to perform in the face of the camera and belonged to a natural actor. This made Liu Yifei very happy. She likes to be praised as a good actress instead of being praised as beautiful all the time. Beautiful is born, parents give, acting is their own hard practice. There is too much difference between the two.
The content of the advertisement is very simple: an angel is very lonely in heaven. Although there are blue sky, white clouds and flowers in full bloom, it is lonely and empty because there is no music in heaven. Beautiful angel can only smile every day, helpless swing in the beautiful heaven. When a pink "phantom" comes down from the sky and music floats out of it, the beautiful angel blooms a smile that makes all the flowers in heaven ashamed.
Because Liu Yifei's excellent performance is almost the same as his true performance, this advertising short film called "enchanting all living beings" was originally expected to be completed in two days, but it was finished in less than one day. After editing, Tan Zhi delivered it to major TV stations for rolling broadcast in the evening.
Tan Zhi wants to build momentum. Before the "phantom" MP3 player goes on the market, he can use the charm of Liu Yifei and others and the fashionable appearance of "phantom" to attract everyone's attention.
On October 4, the commercial film "charm all living beings, the phantom of me" was officially launched in prime time of major TV stations. This time, Tan Zhi spent 80 million yuan (the company's working capital of 100 million) on advertising. It was not only the rolling broadcast of famous TV stations across the country, but also the large posters of Liu Yifei playing on the swing in heaven with the "phantom" MP3 player in major cities. For a while, Liu Yifei, a 14-year-old newcomer, was instantly famous and familiar to everyone.
Angel like face, kind smile, slightly shy but confident eyes, and of course, Chinese identity (in fact, Liu Yifei has always been an American nationality), all of a sudden became the focus of attention. Of course, there is the pink "phantom" MP3 player in Liu Yifei's hand, which is also familiar to everyone.
When people began to inquire, they learned that "phantom" will be on sale on October 8, and will be sold in major cities all over the country at the same time. The price is 298 yuan (32m). With fashionable appearance, reasonable price and overwhelming advertising, "phantom" also appeared in the mouth and ears of universities and working class overnight.
After the full domestic listing on October 8, "phantom" MP3 players will be listed in Asian countries one after another, just a little later than in China. Tan Zhihua spent nearly 300 million on Lin Feng, and his goal is to sell 1 million units in mainland China, 2 million units in Asia and more than 10 million units in the world within one year. This is not tan zhikua Haikou, but with the quality and price of "phantom". What's more, if the phantom doesn't sell for more than 10 million yuan, I'm afraid Lin Feng will die.
After all, the market price of a "phantom" MP3 player (32m) is 298 yuan, but the gross profit is only 12 yuan. If you sell 10 million units, you can only earn 120 million yuan. Apart from all kinds of other expenses such as taxes and advertising investment, if you calculate the net profit, I'm afraid it can only guarantee that the company will not lose money. Fortunately, what Lin Feng saw at the beginning was not the profit from selling "phantom", but the subsequent MP3 song download fee.
But the only thing that makes Lin Feng depressed is that Tan asked Liu Yifei, Li Zhiyou and others to make advertisements. Although they all belong to his own company's artists, his own Lin's Technology Co., Ltd. also has to pay a large endorsement fee. Several girls have 50% of the endorsement fee, and the rest is obtained by "second world", which is actually given to themselves (of course, Lin Feng has only 67% of the profits). The feeling of giving money to yourself is really strange. It's left hand out, right hand in. However, this also proves that Lin Feng's company has begun to move towards normality, and there is no financial chaos.
When Liu Yifei became famous in China, Ma Huateng flew from Shenzhen to Shanghai on the afternoon of October 4.
"Congratulations, Mr. Lin, it seems that your" phantom "MP3 player is going to sell well again." When Ma Huateng came, he received Tan Zhi's advertisement contract. Tencent will prepare to publicize it on QQ and portal websites, and Liu Yifei's large posters have been put up on the street.
"Ha ha, pure loss goods." Lin Feng said with a smile. In terms of the cost of phantom, it is indeed a loss.
They exchanged greetings and went straight to the topic.
About this instant voice chat software, Lin Feng's requirements are only one point, clear, and must ensure smooth communication. Of course, it must be able to talk to multiple parties at the same time and speak freely. After all, this is suitable for team operations.
Ma Huateng has no opinion on this point, which is within the technical ability of his company. What he cares about is the responsibilities and obligations of both sides and, of course, the subsequent distribution of interests.
This is another kind of bargaining. Fortunately, Lin Feng is also one of the shareholders of Tencent, and Ma Huateng is not pedantic. They soon reached an agreement and held a press conference in the evening.
Lin Feng and Ma Huateng have reached a strategic cooperation alliance agreement. All the games of "second world" will support the voice chat tool launched by Tencent. All players don't need to download this voice chat tool separately. They really need to upgrade QQ to the latest version (support voice chat). However, in order to ensure the quality and smoothness of calls, Tencent will give priority to providing this instant voice communication service to "second world" players. Tencent will be solely responsible for all costs and expenses incurred.
Of course, the obligation of "second world" is to add plug-ins to screen other chat tools in the game to ensure the unique legitimacy of Tencent chat tools( This is also an implicit provision in the contract, not publicity, so as not to be sued by other companies for illegal monopoly. But it was the same with win Tel (Microsoft and Intel alliance). This is not a secret in the industry, but an open secret.)
As for the potential benefits of this voice chat tool in the future, Tencent will account for 70% of the profits, and "second world" will account for 30%.
Once the news was released, it immediately caused a sensation. For all domestic players, this is a good news, they do not need to download additional software, they can enjoy voice chat service, naturally no better.
For foreign players, other Asian players, especially for Japanese players, complaints are very big. This means that they have to accept Tencent's software unless they don't play "anti terrorist elite online".
However, on the first day of service, although Japanese players ranked second, they were stabilized by Chinese players. How can they be convinced. What's more, "anti terrorism elite online" is really good. Although there are no twists and turns of the plot and no high-quality pictures, the simple pictures, crisp sense of operation and exciting rhythm bring a breeze to RPG players who have been intoxicated with Japan's lengthy. I believe that in a short time, Japanese players will prefer this game.
What's more, the game is connected in Asia. Every day, players from all countries are ranked. Japanese players with high self-confidence will not give up easily. Even if they give up, they will become number one. After they make an arrogant declaration, they will quit.
As for South Korea and Taiwan, it doesn't matter. Ma Huateng also took the opportunity to launch Tencent's Korean version, Japanese version and traditional Chinese version. Let Ma Huateng a wish, Tencent finally go abroad, into the world stage. Although its global market share is still very small, with the rise of "the second world", Ma Huateng believes that Tencent will also be able to become the number one chat tool in the world( Although Tencent ranks first in user registration, it is not as influential as ICQ in the world. After all, the world is covered by the other side, and Tencent only covers the Chinese mainland.
For Tencent and the "second world" strategic alliance, other domestic online game companies in addition to slightly frown, and did not care too much. Anyway, they don't cooperate with Tencent, and players will naturally use QQ to communicate. But this voice chat tool is really good, but there is more than one voice chat tool in China, and they are lazy to find Tencent for a share. At that time, if players want to have instant messaging, they will naturally try to download the software. Why should they worry about it.
Although the strategic alliance between Tencent and "second world" only slightly surprised these netizen companies in China, the next news of "second world" not only surprised them, but also caused a sensation in the global computer game industry, which naturally attracted the crazy welcome of Chinese players.
The news is the merger of "second world" and "half live" and "anti terrorist elite", the world-famous and well-known valve company. Yes, it's not cooperation, it's merger, it's second world based merger.
It is absolutely the biggest news in the computer game industry this year that a Chinese game company, which was founded less than two years ago, annexed the famous valve company in the computer game industry.
The global game world is in an uproar!
