Remember [lnmao.org] in one second, update fast, no pop-up window, free to read!
internet has a long history of blowing awesome. There are two favorite aspects of blowing. The first is the company's turnover, and the second is the company's valuation and financing.
If a internet company publishes news on online media and venture capital platforms, claiming that it has raised tens of millions of dollars and a valuation of hundreds of millions of dollars, then both amounts will have to be discounted by 20% or even 10%.
The Li Mu is different from this group of people. He does not need to falsify in the market to attract attention, nor does he need to rely on fraud to increase the company ’s valuation, so he did not announce the B round of financing. Even Xu Jiaming's Mingcheng Capital has not released any news. People in the industry simply do not know that the two companies have completed tens of millions of financing in private.
For Baidu Chief Li, it ’s quite a pity not to be connected with Muye Science and Technology. Now that Muye Science and Technology has made Happy Farm the country ’s most fiery/popular game, the envy and jealousy in his heart can hardly be described in words because of his own judgment , Baidu withdrew from Muye Science and Technology, so that he could not stand up in front of the capital behind.
Tan Yaocheng 'S mentality is slightly better, he is not Baidu CEO, so do n’t be burdened Baidu Withdraw Muye Science and Technology This huge mistake, eye looks at Muye Science and Technology He will soon be able to achieve large-scale income generation through Happy Farm, he is relieved Chief Li , Saying: "Actually Li Mu This kid is quite independent, if we do n’t quit Muye Science and Technology , He may not directly put Happy Farm Muye Science and Technology Do it in the name of, you see he just established Storm Entertainment, Muye Science and Technology Only accounted for 20% of the shares, if he took out Happy Farm to form a new company, use Muye Science and Technology 20% of the shares, you can justify the introduction Muye Science and Technology Users, but we only had Muye Science and Technology 10% of the shares, converted down, can only account for 2% of the new company, which makes little sense. "
Chief Li nodded: "It's the same thing, this kid Li Mu is smart, he can't take Happy Farm into Muye Science and Technology to do it without taking us away."
So, Chief Li asked him curiously: "How much does Li Mu hold in this company, Alipay?"
"100%." Tan Yaocheng said: "At that time, this company was to provide payment channels for 3321, no one didn't expect will now come out and integrate with Muye Science and Technology."
Chief Li said: "I really served this kid. Where did he learn these methods from now on, how many shells did he play now? Muye Science and Technology, Easy Music technology, Muye Pictures, Storm Entertainment, Alipay, The capital composition of the shells of several companies is different, and the fields covered are also different. The most important thing is that they can also complement each other in resources. When they first start their business, they will be able to play the shells of the company fascinatingly. Will they still have it in the future? "
Tan Yaocheng shrugged and said, "It ’s better than we can play."
Chief Li sighed: "Our business is still too singular, otherwise, I would also like to get a sub-business and put it in a shell company, so as to get rid of the constraints of capital on us."
......
On the afternoon of the same day, Lin Qingya, which had arrived in Seoul, South Korea (Seoul has not been renamed Seoul at this time), took the newly established BD department to the headquarters of the company Webzen in South Korea, and met with Kim Yoo Quan, deputy general manager of Webzen, in the conference room of Webzen.
Kim Yoo Quan attaches great importance to this negotiation with Business of China company, because he has seen that the 《Legend》 developed by competitor Actoz has created an amazing good result in China, and now 《Legend》 in China fiery/popular degree has been greatly Beyond the estimates of the development company and the agency operating company, the posture in full swing made Webzen very envious. They felt that the "MU Online / miracleMU" they developed, regardless of the world architecture, game playability, visual effects, etc., are better than 《Legend》 is much better. If this game is put into operation in China, it will definitely surpass 《Legend》.
But the biggest problem is that no company from China has ever expressed interest in "MU Online / miracleMU".
Shanda network is now focused on running 《Legend》, it is impossible to distract from running the second game, and NetEase is also busy developing its own game, the Japanese cartoon Online Games "Magic darling" that Netstar agent has just started to test, in addition, There does n’t seem to be any game operating company in China that can be called a name. Knowing the current game operation in China, the most testing promotion ability, if the promotion ability is not in place, a good Online Games can burn 20,000 or 30,000 players. However, if the promotion ability is strong enough, even if it is a garbage Online Games, it can reach an amazing magnitude of hundreds of thousands of users or even millions of users. In the eyes of Kim Yoo Quan, 《Legend》 is such a garbage Online Games.
Rough graphics, simple world architecture, simple character types and upgrade system, 《Legend》 is a third-rate outdated game in the eyes of South Korea ’s top game engineers, allowing Kim Yoo Quan and many top game engineers to catch What I did not want to understand is why 《Legend》 can be so hot in China.
In the end, they attributed the credit to Shanda and believed that a good operator can play a limitless role.
Originally, Kim Yoo Quan also screened companies that are suitable for operating "MU Online / miracleMU" in China's internet company, but unfortunately, they screened these companies in private and did not find out who is more suitable for operating "MU Online / miracleMU". Games.
Tencent once entered the field of vision of Kim Yoo Quan. In his view, Tencent has a very large user base. If you convert user resources to play games, it should be promising. However, Tencent does not have any experience and actions to play games. At present, it seems to be almost insulated from online games, even if Kim Yoo Quan feels that they are suitable, it does not make sense, because the other party does not have this preparation.
Baidu used to be the partner of Kim Yoo Quan, but similar to Tencent, Baidu did not show any intention to make a game.
After some understanding, Kim Yoo Quan even found that it is difficult for them to find a suitable operator in China to carry forward the game "MU Online / miracleMU".
The Tieba (Post It) under Muye Science and Technology is really hot, but he does n’t understand Chinese. He only knows that Tieba (Post It) is a Chinese community, and he does n’t even know what kind of community it is, so he hardly understands PASS in his heart. Know that Muye Science and Technology has launched a new product-Happy Farm.
This time Lin Qingya is talking about the agency rights of "MU Online / miracleMU" with Webzen as a storm entertainment company. Kim Yoo Quan knows nothing about this "storm entertainment", so it is not very interesting, but it is the first one after all China internet who took the initiative to talk to Webzen about "MU Online / miracleMU" agency rights. If the attitude of Webzen is not good, I am afraid that it will cause a bad impact on China, so Kim Yoo Quan had to come to the stage.
When Kim Yoo Quan and Lin Qingya sat face to face, he was still wondering why this company named "Storm Entertainment" sent such a young woman to negotiate with herself, and her age seemed to be Twenty 3-4 years old? Or maybe twenty-six or six? Does she understand internet? Does she understand games? Does she have enough power to clap on this table?
Forty-year-old Kim Yoo Quan, in the first impression of meeting with Lin Qingya, somewhat despised Lin Qingya.
Out of business courtesy, Kim Yoo Quan did not express 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 China represents our "MU Online / miracleMU", can you tell us about the basic situation of your company? "
The translator interpreted the other party ’s questions into Chinese, and nodded after listening to Lin Qingya. Pico said with a laugh said: "Our company was just established in Yanjing this month, with a registered capital of two million, and the business scope is in the internet cultural and entertainment field. Software development, operation and related peripheral production and sales. "
As soon as I heard that Kim Yoo Quan was a newly established company, I almost thought of leaving. He was somewhat despising China ’s internet companies and game companies. He thought that they would lag behind Korean companies in terms of technology and thinking. Moreover, Webzen is also one of the top game development companies in South Korea. Even if it is a well-known China company, he has few high-profile companies, not to mention a newly registered company.
Kim Yoo Quan ’s expression was a bit ugly. At almost this moment, he completely rejected the idea of Storm Entertainment Agency "MU Online / miracleMU". The previous professional smile also disappeared, looks at Lin Qingya said: "We are more I hope to cooperate with companies that have a sufficient user base and strong online offline promotion capabilities. Your company has just been established. I think it is difficult for you to put "MU Online / miracleMU" into operation. "
Lin Qingya smiled lightly and said, "Mr. Jin, the situation of our company has not been explained in more detail with you. The second largest shareholder of our company is Muye Science and Technology of China."
Kim Yoo Quan was stunned, and asked: "How much does Muye Science and Technology hold in your company?"
"20%."
Kim Yoo Quan has a slightly better expression. Muye Science and Technology has a share in this storm entertainment, which proves that Storm Entertainment can obtain the necessary resources from Muye Science and Technology. Muye Science and Technology although also has no genes for game operation, but at least it is still a tens of millions of user-level communities. There is still some foundation, so simply said: "As far as I know, the main product of Muye Science and Technology is a Chinese community. Now that you are playing games, how much can Muye Science and Technology users successfully convert?"
Lin Qingya smiled and asked him: "Mr. Jin, I do n’t know how much you know about Muye Science and Technology?"
Kim Yoo Quan simply said: "I know that Muye Science and Technology has the world's largest Chinese community, but you and I all know how watery this statement is. We also have a very famous forum in Korea, claiming to be the world's largest Korean forum, but its The users are just millions of netizens in China. "
Lin Qingya said: "After all, the population covered by Chinese is larger than Korean. Muye Science and Technology has tens of millions of users in China alone. It is now one of the companies with the most registered users and active users in China. There will be no more than three China companies compared to Muye Science and Technology. "
Kim Yoo Quan nodded and asked Lin Qingya: "Does your company, or Muye Science and Technology have any game operation experience?"
In the eyes of Kim Yoo Quan, Storm Entertainment has the background of Muye Science and Technology, and it is just barely able to give himself a high glance. However, in his heart, he still ca n’t accept giving MU Online / miracleMU to such a company for operation, so he The question I asked was not to be answered by Lin Qingya, but she hoped that she could understand the huge gap between her company and the excellent Online Games "MU Online / miracleMU".
At this time, Lin Qingya asked him confidently: "Mr. Jin, I do n’t know if you have heard of Happy Farm?"
"Happy Farm?" Kim Yoo Quan frowned. The translator translated these four words literally. After listening to it, he thought that Lin Qingya was really asking a question about a certain farm, so he was not interested. Answer: "I lived in Seoul since childhood, my father is an officer, my mother is a university professor, I have not been in contact with the farm since birth, and I am not very clear about the farm."
Lin Qingya saw the superiority of his answer, and some Nijun could not help but say: "Mr. Jin, you misunderstood. The happy farm I said is not a certain farm or a real farm, but Muye Science and Technology just launched some time ago. Is a farm online game. "
"Farm game?" Kim Yoo Quan frowned more tightly: "A rural farm can also be made into an online game? If it is a stand-alone game running on a handheld, I may still understand that after all, there is a Japanese "Ranch Story" is a game, it is not impossible to develop a farm game, but how much space can farm farm online games have? How many users does this game have? 30,000? 50,000? "
Thirty-five thousand is already an optimistic estimate for Kim Yoo Quan. In the past few years he has been playing games, he has seen many games that have not broken through 10,000 users from online to shutdown.
Lin Qingya with a smirk smiled at this time, said: "Mr. Jin is too underestimating the user base of this game, our game now has nearly 40 million users, and more than 1,000 daily users Five million. "
"How is it possible!" Kim Yoo Quan almost jumped from the chair in shock, and said in a stunned manner: "40 million users, 15 million daily active users? Miss Lin, are you kidding me?"
Lin Qingya said with a smile: "If I am kidding, this joke is meaningless. If Mr. Jin takes the time to learn about the game" Happy Farm ", I must know if I am kidding."
The expression of Kim Yoo Quan immediately became serious, and looks at Lin Qingya asked seriously: "How long will Miss Lin be staying in Seoul?"
Lin Qingya said: "It depends on what we talk about, but it should not exceed three or five days."
Kim Yoo Quan immediately said: "Can you come here today for the time being, I will ask our staff to arrange accommodation for you, I think we need some time to do some understanding of" Happy Farm "you said."
Forty million registered users and fifteen million daily active users. If Muye Science and Technology can really make such a awesome game and own 20% of the shares in this storm entertainment, then Webzen will choose to cooperate with them without hesitation , Even kneeling and licking will not hesitate.
