Recreation Starts From the Heartbeat - Chapter 363
Popular recommendation:
Tang Su did not send the new song to Tang Xiaolin as promised.
She is only the owner of an entertainment company. She knows what music is, so it is better to leave it to Su Tang at noon.
Dream themed song.
After “My Dream” and “Going in the Rain”, how can another classic be left behind?
“If pride is not coldly photographed by the sea of reality,
How can you know that you have to work hard to get far,
If the dream had not fallen off the cliff, by a close call,
How do you know that persistent people have invisible wings…”
-“first dreams”
“Very good song.”
Xu Mengying nodded gently: “I want to invite you to sing.”
“anytime.”
Tang Su smiled: “During “Super Singer”, you can invite me to sing at any time.”
“Not for now, let’s take a look at the next few episodes.”
Xu Mengying said.
Tang Su nodded, and then said nothing.
In addition to him, Xu Mengying has another ace musician as a helper, perhaps because she is busy, or because she trusts another ace musician more, so her new songs in the first few issues should be handed over to him to do it.
…
After returning to the company, have a meeting.
“This time, I mainly reviewed some of the resumes I received yesterday. I did a simple investigation and returned those that did not meet the requirements. The rest are not bad, because the development department is mainly managed by you, so, You need to have a basic understanding of the people in your department.”
Zhang Yuning said.
“Okay, let’s take a look together.”
Tang Su nodded.
Because it is an electronic resume, it can be viewed on the computer.
After looking at it for half an hour, the first batch of people who are sure to be interviewed has been screened out.
“There are quite a lot of industry elites who have contributed to us this time.”
Tang Su smiled: “I saw a lot of familiar names here, and many of them are even employees of large companies. I didn’t expect that they would come to us for an interview. “Little Bird” has become popular, and more and more game practitioners have recognized the strength of our company, which is a good thing.”
“Not only game practitioners recognize the strength of our company, but capital institutions also recognize us very much.”
Zhang Yuning said with a light smile: “Since the launch of these two games, dozens of capital institutions have contacted me, and they want to invest in us. The prices they offer are really more attractive than the other, you know the inside What is the valuation of the company with the most powerful offer?”
“How many more? Could there be 10 billion?”
Tang Su said casually.
Market valuation refers to the value that the company should have in the professional evaluation process of the capital institution, which is not the same as the company’s output value and actual value.
The simple understanding is: the more capital institutions recognize a company, the greater the value of the company in the eyes of capital.
Not just a company, it can also refer to an emerging industry, such as new energy that was very popular some time ago…
“Ten billion is not enough, it’s not so outrageous.”
Zhang Yuning shook his head: “The highest one, the offer to us is 6.7 billion, and they expressed their willingness to obtain 10% of the shares through financing based on this offer.”
6.7 billion? 10%
Tang Su was startled: “That is to say, if I agree, then our company will be able to generate nearly 700 million more cash flow in minutes. These 700 million can completely allow us to recruit troops and start producing large-scale end games directly. Tsk tsk tsk, it’s really an irresistible temptation.”
“But you will still refuse.”
Zhang Yuning said with a chuckle: “For you, the valuation of 6.7 billion is too little, and it is far from enough to explain the true value of our company.”
“Very few indeed.”
Tang Su shook his head: “If there is a capital institution willing to give a valuation of 70 billion at this time, I may still be interested in selling some shares.”
70 billion valuation?
This is thinking about ass!
Zhang Yuning is speechless, this guy’s self-feeling is so good that it explodes.
“I mean it, if there is capital willing to give us a valuation of 70 billion at this time, let alone a shareholding, let me sell the company.”
Tang Su saw his disbelief and said seriously.
“Okay, okay, I know you want to fart.”
Zhang Yuning waved his hand: “Go play by yourself, I still have something to do, and I don’t have time to chat with you here.”
…
Hiring new employees is much easier than in the beginning.
I still remember that when the new company was first established, it didn’t recruit for a long time, because the company didn’t have its own ‘selling point’, and it couldn’t even convince others that the company could survive for a long time. After the first month results of Zombie came out, it was put on the table to brag, and only then did a wave of new employees come over.
But even so, it still failed to attract any real industry elites (except Xu Jinyang).
The real elites in the industry, unless they are desperate, otherwise, they will most likely not choose a small game company that only has one game popular, because such a company has too much luck, and you will never know this company. How about the next game, maybe it will be cancelled next year.
Therefore, Tang Su’s requirements for the first batch of employees are not very high. To describe it in four words, it is ‘enough is enough’. I really can’t put too many requirements on other things. At that time, I was not worthy of a small company. what.
But now-
“Plants vs. Zombies” has been popular for several months in a row, and two new games have also become popular at the same time. All three games have appeared on the major lists of the mobile game platform. It can really be said to be a mess.
And taking advantage of the new game fire, Cang Qiong Game Company has finally emerged in the game industry.
Because of this, Tang Su’s requirements for new employees have also increased a lot.
How to say this.
Just like buying a mobile phone, when you have no money, you talk about cost-effectiveness, and when you are extremely poor, you talk about the ultimate cost-effectiveness. But when you have money, you start to think about appearance, workmanship, design, and brand feelings, like what this dragon or that department handles. device? Who still pays attention to this, go directly to the flagship top match, and the blind selection will not be bad.
At this stage, buying a mobile phone is really all that is left to enjoy.
And now, as Cangqiong Games has made its name in the circle and has been recognized by a large number of players, peers, and capital institutions, Tang Su’s requirements for new employees have almost risen to the flagship level. This kind of ‘basically satisfied with the use of’ candidates, has been difficult to enter the company.
Of course, Tang Su is not worried that raising the threshold will lead to fewer employees.
It can be seen from the resume received.
In just one day, I received a large number of resumes, and it took half an hour just for the two of them to sit here and chat. Among these candidates, there are even some elite employees of large factories who have participated in many Development and production of well-known games.
The salary package that Cang Qiong Game Company can offer at present is still somewhat different from that of major manufacturers, but it can still attract these people, so that they would rather ‘reduce their salary’. of goodwill and expectations.
Tang Su knew very well that this recruitment should continue for a while, and then…
More and more elites in the industry will join in, become their colleagues, develop new projects with themselves, and make good games that amaze colleagues and players.
Well…
Thinking of this, while Tang Su was happy, he suddenly realized that he had forgotten something?
what is it then?
He thought for a long time.
“Mr. Tang, didn’t you say you want to make a new game? Have you made the design draft of the new game?”
Xu Jinyang reminded kindly.
Design draft for a new game?
“Oh yes!”
Tang Su immediately realized that he had only been focusing on the launch of new games, Tangtang’s new songs, recruiting new employees, and bragging with Zhang Yuning and Xu Jinyang these past two days, but he almost forgot the real business.
If this is to wait until the new employees are in place, the six project teams have also been arranged, and then I say that the new game design draft has not yet created a new document…
Zhang Yuning estimated that he had the heart to kill himself.
“Do this, do this.”
Tang Su said, “I’m going to the office to work on the design draft of the new game. If there’s nothing wrong, don’t bother me. The two of you can discuss it. If it’s really difficult to deal with, come find me.”
Generally speaking, there is nothing that his boss needs to handle personally.
After all, it’s just a game company. It relies on making games to make money, and it doesn’t have much business dealings with the outside world.
“OK.”
Xu Jinyang nodded.
…
Then, Tang Su locked himself in the office and began to think about which game he should copy first.
“Plants vs. Zombies, Defending Carrots, and Angry Birds are all available, so the other stand-alone games must also be arranged, otherwise it will be too wasteful. It’s all money.”
Tang Su thought to himself, so he created several new documents and named them:
Kingdom Rush, Iron Troopers, Monument Valley, Temple Run, Happy Breaks.
These are the more interesting games in Tang Su’s impression.
“Kingdom Rush” and “Steel Team” can be regarded as more classic games in traditional tower defense games. In terms of gameplay, they are not inferior to “Defend the Carrot”, or even better.
However, compared to the mainstream style of “Defend the Carrot” that swept all age groups, “Kingdom Defense” and “Steel Team” appear to be a bit niche in casual mobile games, and their popularity is not as good as the former, but for many people who like ‘ For veteran players of Krypton Liver, they will prefer this more challenging game.
Tang Su didn’t plan to do it originally, but after thinking about it, he decided to take it out.
“The two games “Plants vs. Zombies” and “Defend the Carrot” are mainly aimed at light tower defense gamers of all ages, while “Kingdom Rush” and “Steel Team” are mainly aimed at those serious tower defense players. All four games are on display, and anyone who is interested in tower defense games in the future will not be able to avoid Sky Games.”
Tang Su thought so in his heart.
That’s right, he wants to use this game to completely occupy the field of ‘tower defense single-player mobile games’, so that Cang Qiong Games will take this opportunity to quickly build a ‘moat’, with characteristics and competition that are different from other game companies. force.
After that, he chose “Monument Valley” and “Temple Run”. The former is an insurmountable mountain in a single-player mobile game. The development cost is not high, and players who like such games are destined to be a minority, but the more The smaller the crowd, the easier it is to cultivate diehard fans.
“It’s just that if you want to make this game and maintain the subsequent DLC updates… I’m afraid you need to hire some professionals who are proficient in space use and 3D design.”
Tang Su frowned and thought, and then noted this point in the document.
“Temple Run” is also a classic. In the previous life, the birth of this game created the peak of parkour games… Although in the later stage, this game was completely ruined due to the bottomless krypton gold routine. , but in Tang Su’s view, if we can redesign the krypton gold method in the game, and put ‘gameplay’ and ‘experience’ in the first place, it should still be able to attract some players.
It is a pity that such a classic game is not made.
In his previous life, Tang Su liked this game quite a bit at first. At the time when the touch screen was just born, it brought him a great shock.
Of course, Tang Su decided to ‘remake’ this game and redesign it, not just for his feelings, but also because he had not found any similar games on major mobile game platforms. It seems that there is no ‘parkour’ in this world. The concept of mobile games.
“If a game like “Temple Run” is made, players should be very interested, right? Anyway… It’s not a loss, it’s fine.”
Tang Su thought so, and added this game to the plan.
And then the last of these new games—
“Happy Disappearance”
“This is a big killer.”
Looking at these simple five words on the screen, Tang Su’s heart was fiery. In this world, I am afraid that I will only know how terrifying the charm of this game will be.
Regardless of popularity or revenue, you are welcome to say that the previous games are just a little brother in front of “Happy Xiao Xiaole”.
[To tell the truth, recently I have been using Mimi to read and read books to keep up with updates, switch sources, and read aloud tones, which can be used by Android and Apple. 】
In the field of casual games, “Happy Xiao Xiaole” is almost a king-like existence, standing on the supreme throne, and no one can shake its position.
“If I can reproduce the miracle of this game on the earth in the previous life, then, by the end of this year, the market value of Qiong Game Company will easily exceed 10 billion.”
Tang Su frowned and thought, a little hesitant.
He was hesitating whether to release this big killer.
If the four games of “Kingdom Rush”, “Steel Team”, “Monument Valley”, and “Temple Run” are considered top-notch stand-alone mobile games, then “Happy Xiaoxiao Le” is the undisputed top-notch.
As soon as this game comes out, it is impossible for the company to keep a low profile, even those top capital institutions with a market value of hundreds of billions and trillions will pay attention to it.
And the attention of these top capitals may not be a good thing for the sky game company.
Tang Su hadn’t thought about financing. He hoped that Cang Qiong Game Company could be purer and become a simple game company, but those top capitals obviously didn’t think so.
Especially the top capital in the game industry.
When an excellent game company is born in the industry, they usually have only two approaches, either strategically invest and tie it to their own chariots, or arrange for their studios to copy, and then use their own huge The user base is promoted, attracting most players, and completely isolating this unwilling game company…
Of course, it is also possible to use both methods together.
First make a symbolic investment, pull it into your own camp, and at the same time find a way to have your own studio replace it. If it fails, it’s fine. Anyway, it has already been pulled into your own camp, but if it succeeds, you can Take out a somewhat threatening business while promoting your own diversification strategy…
No loss whatsoever.
This method is disgusting, but also very effective.
…
“You said before that there are some capital institutions that want to invest in us and give us a valuation of billions, is that so?”
Tang Su called Zhang Yuning to the office and asked seriously.
“Of course, a total of dozens of capital institutions have contacted me. I didn’t agree or refuse. I just said to think about it first…”
Zhang Yuning nodded, then frowned and asked, “Do you want to raise money?”
Financing at this juncture has pros and cons.
If you don’t have confidence in the company’s future, it is naturally the best to take advantage of the hot momentum of “Defend Carrot” and “Angry Birds” when they were first launched to accept financing from capital institutions, because at this time, various companies Capital institutions give a lot of money. After a period of time when the popularity of the game subsides and no new good news comes out, capital institutions will not be willing to pay high prices.
But if you have full confidence in the company and think that the company may be worth tens of billions or tens of billions in the future, then accepting financing at this time is obviously a very disadvantageous thing, especially if the company is not short of money.
Zhang Yuning is a little confused, what the **** is this guy going to do.
I just bragged to him yesterday, saying that the company would reach a market value of 100 billion within two years, and now the enthusiasm has not been extinguished. UU Kanshu www.uukanshu.com is now considering financing?
Really hard but three seconds ah.
“Of course I can’t accept financing, and I’m not stupid.”
Tang Su shook his head: “I just asked you to find out about the situation. How many of these capital institutions came from the game industry? You record them all, remember them clearly, and send them to me.”
“That’s it.”
Zhang Yuning understood, and then frowned again: “You can just let Xu Jinyang do this kind of thing and you’re done.”
He was a little unhappy.
In any case, he is the second-in-command of the company.
This kind of work that should be done by an assistant, what’s the matter with arranging it for yourself?
It would be fine if Tang Su didn’t have an assistant, but now he has an assistant, and he is a very good assistant, but he has to let himself do such a trivial matter.
“What nonsense? If you want to go, go quickly.”
Tang Su was too lazy to explain too much to him, so he just urged: “Hurry up and give me a copy, I’ll be useful, now, immediately, immediately.”
“you…”
Zhang Yuning was suddenly speechless: “OK, OK, I’ll get it for you.”
He was also quite curious, what exactly did Tang Su want to do in such a hurry to ask for the list of those capital institutions and the detailed quotations given by the other party.
No plans to accept financing.
Could it be to show off to his girlfriend, saying that his company is awesome now?
Can’t you?
Is this guy so low now?
But calm down and think about it, with Tang Su’s character and knowledge, maybe he would actually do such a thing…
Thinking that he was actually cooperating with him to pretend, Zhang Yuning felt as if 10,000 grass and mud horses passed by…
