Recreation Starts From the Heartbeat - Chapter 364

Zhang Yuning quickly sorted out the quotations given by these capital institutions and presented them to Tang Su.

“The lowest is 3.5 billion, and the highest is 7.5 billion. In addition to being a bit harsh and greedy, the overall is very tempting. If we admit this valuation, then we will If we can achieve financial freedom, even in Shangjing, we can live very freely.”

Tang Su said softly.

“So?”

Zhang Yuning was a little curious: “What do you want to do if you want this from me?”

This guy doesn’t really want to raise money, does he?

“I was just curious, so wanted to sort it out and see what the capital structure was saying to us.”

Tang Su said lightly.

“what?”

Zhang Yuning’s face is not very good-looking. This guy made himself so busy in order to see what the capital institutions think of the company. In other words, he was busy for a long time just to satisfy this guy’s curiosity?

This is a bit too grassy.

Well, no kidding with you. ”

Tang Su changed the subject with a smile: “It can be seen from this table that most of the capital institutions that are interested in us are related to the game industry, and some of them are big companies at the top giant level. What does this mean? ?”

“It shows that our company has been recognized by the whole industry.”

Zhang Yuning said angrily.

“No, not just recognition.”

Tang Su shook his head: “This means that our company has now entered the vision of those top big companies, and they will think about taking a stake in us, but now that we refuse, they are likely to reprint several of our games and **** them from us. The market…you know how disgusting these big companies are.”

Zhang Yuning frowned slightly.

He has done research, and of course he knows how disgusting these big companies are. Seeing that similar companies have made achievements, they will either find a way to acquire them and make them their own, or they will take away players through plagiarism + channel diversion. market, thereby suppressing new companies in order to continue to maintain their position in the industry.

just disgusting.

But this is also something that can’t be helped. Disgusting is disgusting, and my colleagues have nothing to do about it. The arm can’t twist the thigh, not to mention the elephant’s leg…

“We have now been noticed by the top big companies in the industry. These big companies value us, which shows that our company is developing right now, and we are on the right path, but it is not a good thing to be targeted by them. .”

Tang Su smiled and shook his head, hesitated for a moment, and said, “I said before that we want to make Cangqiong Games a big company in the industry. Since we want to become a big company, we will inevitably have to follow these Big companies are facing it, and there is no escape.”

“I know.”

Zhang Yuning nodded: “But it will take a long time. Big companies are only paying attention to us now, and they are far from treating us as their opponents. It will take a long time from when they value us and then we can threaten these big companies. , enough for us to slowly prepare.”

He feels that this is not a problem, because he still has a long time to deal with it slowly.

but–

“There’s something I want to discuss with you…”

Tang Su was silent for a few seconds and made a hypothesis: “If our next game becomes a super hit in the casual mobile game field… What is a super hit? Maybe it’s “Plants vs. Zombies”, “Defend Carrots”, “Angry Birds” can’t keep up with half of the results, so at this time, what do you think the attitude of these big companies will be towards us? Are they paying attention? Or are they aware of the threat?”

“Plants vs. Zombies”, “Defend the Radish”, and “Angry Birds” all add up to less than half?

These three games are already very rare dark horses in the field of casual mobile games. If on this basis, there is really a game that can sweep them, then…

The gaming world will shake.

Not the field of casual mobile games, nor the field of mobile games, but the entire game industry.

“what do you mean?”

Zhang Yuning squinted and stared at him, a somewhat absurd premonition rose in his heart.

Could it be that this guy knew that his next game would be a hit?

What a joke.

Even some top designers dare not say that their games will definitely be popular, right?

At most, it can only guarantee that the minimum will not be lower than a certain data. As for the upper limit?

There are many games with high ceilings, but very few of them can become a hit.

Market changes, capital momentum, luck, these are all too important, only by combining the right time and place, it is possible to make a real explosion.

As for the casual game field?

Many industry leaders have analyzed that games like “Plants vs. Zombies” have reached the ceiling. In this small category alone, it is impossible for any game to be much higher than the current performance of “Plants vs. Zombies”.

Many practitioners think that Tang Su can make such a game because of a lot of luck, so they are not very optimistic about the future of Cangqiong Game Company.

And when “Defend Carrot” and “Angry Birds” were released and became popular, the success of three games in succession became the ceiling level in this small category, and only then did peers truly recognize Tang Su’s game design ability.

but–

“Plants vs. Zombies”, “Defend Carrots”, and “Angry Birds” have really reached their peaks, and they have already touched the ceiling of the field of casual mobile games.

The latecomers basically can only look up, can only imitate, can only worship.

But now Tang Su said that if there is one game, it can make these three games add up to far less than…

Zhang Yuning thinks this guy is a little crazy.

This possibility is even lower than the probability of winning the jackpot by buying a lottery ticket, and even a dream may not be able to dream such an incredible thing.

“I’m asking you what if.”

Tang Su said softly, “If we make such a game a few months later, how do you want to deal with the open guns and dark arrows of those big manufacturers?”

“…”

Zhang Yuning was silent.

Tang Su used a very hypothetical statement, but Zhang Yuning would not think that the other party was joking with him.

This year, Tang Su said a lot, but these words finally came true.

When he first wanted to transform a game company, Tang Su said that his first game could achieve good results. At that time, Zhang Yuning didn’t believe it, but he still chose to support it. As a result, “Plants vs. Zombies” was launched a few months later, and it became a casual game directly. The ace in the field, and then to the following two games, the four words ‘Sky Game’ were directly labeled as ‘the conscience of the industry’.

After that, Tang Su wanted to set up six project teams and make six games at the same time. Although Zhang Yuning was a little surprised, he did the same.

And now, Tang Su told him that he was going to make a super hit this year, and asked him if he was ready.

Zhang Yuning: ? ? ?

He suspected that the other party was deliberately creating problems for him.

“I’ll be honest, if you can really make a hit… The big manufacturers will definitely find ways to target us.”

Zhang Yuning thought for a long time and said, “I can even think of how they will deal with us. First of all, they must come to the door to discuss acquisitions. Acquisitions will not achieve financing, but they need to take the lead.

For example, they will give a good valuation, then take more than half of the shares and let us turn from bosses to wage earners…

If the financing is not successful, they will copy our game and grab the market, but at the same time, they will also start from the channel platform, trying to block our revenue source and let us be the enemy…

It’s not just that, they will find ways to poach people from our company at high prices. Although you are the soul of the development team, they can’t poach them, but they can find a way to poach our company’s programmers, leaving us in a hurry in a short time. Do nothing at all.

When we slow down, the new games that the big manufacturers copied from us should also be launched, and the omni-channel promotion will directly cover our player group completely, and we have no chance to fight back. ”

The means that big factories can use against small factories like themselves are quite simple, but the simpler it is, the more they can’t resist.

[Recommendation, Mimi reading and chasing books is really easy to use, download it here and you can try it. 】

They only need to use all the above-mentioned methods, and they can paralyze the sky game company in a short period of time, and at the same time block the source of income. Boil a small business like Cang Qiong Game Company alive.

So, it’s hard.

“If you think you can, then we will start preparing to make this game. If you feel unsure, then we will postpone it until the company is sure.”

Tang Su said.

“Can’t you do it first?”

Zhang Yuning proposed this idea, but before Tang Su could speak, he shook his head again: “It really doesn’t work, many companies are staring at us now, it is estimated that before our game is finished, it will already be known by colleagues. , if we finish the game and don’t release it, we probably won’t have anything to do with us in the future.”

It is impossible to expect employee confidentiality.

There are too many people in the studio now, and a group of people will soon be recruited. At that time, it will be a large company with hundreds of people. These people come to the company just to work and make money, and they have no sense of dependence on the company, and it is impossible to maintain it. company’s profit……

As long as their colleagues can pay them more, they may become undercover agents arranged by other companies.

This kind of thing sounds like acting in a TV series, but it really happens in this industry, or in other words, every industry has similar things.

That’s why.

In the company, Tang Su or Zhang Yuning are often the last ones to leave. They will leave after making sure that there is no one in the company and no core secrets have been leaked, just to avoid giving criminals an opportunity.

Wealth is heartwarming.

Tang Su’s new game design drafts will not be directly handed over to the development team, but will be split up and handed over to some employees for production.

Of course, this kind of secrecy is not permanent. As time goes by, at the last minute, everyone will know the specific appearance of the new game, and there will be no secrets at all, but by that time, other companies will I got some inside information, and it’s too late to follow suit.

Unless they get the design draft that Tang Su mastered, otherwise, it is impossible for them to make the game and launch it within half a year. It is impossible to pose any threat to the sky game.

And the method like Zhang Yuning just said just doesn’t work at all.

If the game is made and stored for use, it is equivalent to charity.

So, either don’t do it now and do it later when the company grows, or do it and fight against the big companies.

“I have a headache.”

Zhang Yuning was helpless: “Why do you always give me such problems? This is completely beyond my ability to handle.”

Compete with big factories with a market value of hundreds of billions and trillions of dollars.

Just thinking about it makes me shiver.

With their small scale, what are they doing to fight with others?

“Think about it, although they are giants, but even if they perceive our threat, it is impossible to use all their energy against us. We still have a chance.”

Tang Su comforted lightly.

“It’s easy for you to say.”

Zhang Yuning was speechless.

This is indeed the case. Even if those giant companies realize that this new company may threaten them, they will not go all out, because in the past days, they destroyed many companies that threatened them, destroyed or annexation, which enables itself to grow and become a giant.

For them, Sky Games is just one of them, nothing special.

But the problem is.

Even if they don’t do their best, even if they just do it at will, it’s not something that a small company like them can resist. Otherwise, the companies with unlimited potential in front of them won’t fall to the ground. There are many smart people in this world. If you think of yourself as a smart person, you will have a high probability of overturning and falling over.

“You think about it first, and we’ll think about countermeasures in a few days.”

Tang Su smiled: “I will write the design draft of the new game first, and then after we discuss it in a few days, we will start preparing for these games. Oh, by the way, the development team will be more concerned.”

…

Tang Su was a problem for Zhang Yuning.

Until the end of get off work, the other party was a little frowning, and he really couldn’t think of how to solve this problem.

Zhang Yuning was skeptical about what Tang Su said, ‘This game will definitely become popular and threaten top manufacturers’. , As the company gradually develops and grows, it is almost inevitable that it will collide with the big manufacturers in the future. If you don’t take precautions now, it will be difficult in the future.

Things like cramming and fighting for luck are not suitable for commercial warfare.

“Get off work first, and talk about it tomorrow.”

Tang Su smiled and didn’t say anything to him, so he went upstairs to find Su Tang.

The two of them have gotten along so far, and they have gradually formed some tacit understanding. If Tang Su finished get off work first, he would usually go up and wait for her. If Su Tang was okay, he would also come downstairs and wait.

When Tang Su went upstairs, Su Tang was still chatting with Xu Mengying about singing. The other party seemed to be guiding her to sing. As a professional and experienced first-line singer in the industry, Xu Mengying was fully qualified to be a teacher for Su Tang.

Tang Su didn’t bother, just sat on the sofa in the lounge area, said hello to Su Tang, and lowered his head to play with his phone.

It’s not like playing with a mobile phone, it’s still a bit of a business.

Zhang Yuning told him before that there was a well-known game designer in the game industry who created a peer exchange group and wanted to invite Tang Su to join the group, but because Tang Su was never in charge of company affairs, even many channel platforms There is no contact information for Tang Su, so I can only find Zhang Yuning first, and Zhang Yuning will convey it.

When Zhang Yuning told him the news at the time, Tang Su was still thinking about which game to move first, so he asked him to post it on his work account first, and then he stopped following it.

I suddenly remembered now, so I clicked in and checked the group information.

The group name is quite simple – the game designer exchange group.

The group leader’s name is Zhou Yuntian.

Tang Su was a little familiar with this name. After searching on the browser, he remembered that this is a top game designer in the industry. He comes from a top manufacturer named ‘Soulang’. He has designed many popular games that are very profitable. Travel is famous in the whole industry.

etc……

Why does the name Sowolf Company look familiar?

Tang Su frowned and thought, Xu Jinyang’s figure flashed in his mind, and he understood, this seems to be the company that caused an accident due to frantically working overtime some time ago. Moreover, in the list of investment institutions that Zhang Yuning prepared today, there seems to be Sowolf. company name…

“Is it such a coincidence?”

Tang Su thought for a while, and sent a message to Zhang Yuning to ask: “This group you sent me, the group owner is the chief game designer of Sowolf, what are you thinking?”

It means, why do you want to add yourself to the other party’s group?

He doesn’t like socializing in the business world, nor is he interested in getting to know each other.

Ding dong.

Zhang Yuning quickly replied: “Don’t think so much, Sowolf is Sowolf, the designer is the designer, Zhou Yuntian’s status in the game circle is very high, with his performance, he can rank in the top five among all domestic peers. , Sowolf can’t use him, and it’s not him who is interested in you, just one of the managers, who also started out in casual games, so I feel more cordial to you.”

In other words:

Don’t think that people have any intentions for you, just like you, you can’t look down on such high-level god-level designers, but there is an administrator who thinks you are interesting, and you are quite professional among a group of low-level rookies. , so I just want to pull you into the group to play with.

Tang Su understood.

I ignored Zhang Yuning, returned to the group information interface, and clicked to add a group.

There is a grouping problem:

“What is your identity?”

identity?

Tang Su thought for a while, then typed: “Tang Su, the new designer of Sky Games.”

Are you humble enough?

After all, you are a newcomer, so you still have to respect the seniors in the group, even if it is only superficial.

Join the group soon.

Zhao Dahai: “Welcome to the newcomer.”

Tang Su subconsciously replied, “Mengxin asks for a cover.”

It should be noted that this Zhao Dahai is a game designer who is interested in Tang Su. It is said that he started out by making casual games.

There are many active game designers in the group, and they all took the initiative to say hello to Tang Su.

Zhang Weiwei: “Good afternoon, Boss Tang, I’m your fan. I like the game you designed very much. I play it every day on the way to and from get off work.”

Commercial blows?

Tang Su didn’t think too much, and replied casually: “Thank you, I also like your game very much, I’m preparing to study, please give me more advice in the future.”

As soon as these words came out, the group of friends typed the “???” symbol one after another.

A long line.

There is a saying that goes like this: when I type ‘? ’, it’s usually not me that has a problem, but I think you have a problem.

Tang Su felt that the group of friends seemed to mean this.

He was a little confused, what was wrong with him saying that? Isn’t this the correct way to open up business exchanges?

At this time, the parties sent a message.

Zhang Weiwei: “I’m sorry, I’m a game engine developer, and I haven’t participated in designing games.”

Game engine development?

Isn’t this a group of game designers?

He subconsciously felt that this group was not very professional, but then he thought about it. Game engine engineers seem to have an inseparable relationship with game design. It seems normal for two professions to be in the same group.

then–

Tang Su typed: “I’m sorry, I just entered the game circle not long ago. I’m usually a bit of a nerd, and I don’t know much about the game circle. Next time, I will try to search the Internet first.”

Many designers: “???”

Okay, let’s skip this not-so-happy start for now.

Everyone chatted and became familiar with each other.

“Boss Tang, I heard that your company is recruiting a lot of people. Are you planning to make a big move?”

Someone asked.

Tang Su casually typed and replied: “It’s not a big move, I just have a little bit of production experience now, so I want to make a few more games. My games don’t make much money, so I can only make a few more games. ”

Is Qinnengbuzhuo used like this?

Several group friends who peeped at the screen felt that this newcomer seemed strange~www.mtlnovel.com~ Compared with the previous newcomers, he was too modest.

A little bit of production experience…

Games don’t make much money…

Take a look at the three best-selling popular mobile games that are still on the charts, and then look at his words, no matter how you look at it, it’s a bit inappropriate.

“Boss Tang has made three masterpieces in the field of casual mobile games. Do you have any experience or feelings to share with us?”

Someone asked.

Experience? Feeling?

Tang Su pondered for a second, then typed: “I’m just a newcomer who has just been in the industry for less than a year, what experience can I share, and it’s a bit tricky to talk about casual mobile games in front of the big guys. .

Those three games are not really great, that is, they are just okay. The quality of the games is average, that is, the promotion and promotion are very good. After all, I have a great girlfriend hahahaha…

When it comes to the feeling of making a game, this is really a little bit. How should I put it, the casual mobile game is a thing, I feel it is very simple, just think of the inspiration you like, and then you can fix it. It’s almost there. Just do it by hand. ”

This is very sincere.

This is how Tang Su conceived it. He went through all the classic casual mobile games on the earth in his previous life in his mind, found one that he was interested in, then opened the document and copied it, and then threw it to the development team, instructing everyone to do it, Three months later, the game came out.

Very simple.

Really have a hand on the line.

Many designers in the group: ? ? ?

Just now, I thought this new guy was really humble, but in a blink of an eye, this impression was shattered and shattered all over the place.

It is enough that God has a hand.
