Chapter 241 Mobile Version of DNF
"Mr. Liu, I'm not kidding. I'm serious. I want to take a ride on your express train."

"Haha, if Mr. Yang is really interested in the gaming industry, I can introduce a few friends to you. They really need your support."

Although Yang Xiao spoke with great confidence, Liu Yong still did not believe his intention, so Liu Yong did not respond to him and continued to test him.

Yang Xiao smiled and said sincerely, "Mr. Liu, you are joking. How many companies in Guangdong Province have been deeply involved in the game industry for more than ten years and have such a solid foundation like yours? The others have neither technology nor experience, so I really don't like them."

"Mr. Yang, thank you for your praise. I cannot boast of our rich history. This year is only our tenth year. It is just that we have been lucky to get to where we are today."

Everyone carried the fancy sedan, and Liu Yong was very happy about Yang Xiao's praise and support, and he immediately became humble.

Yang Xiao did not press him further at this time. Instead, he opened up and began to chat with him.

"Boss Liu, the current gaming market is not going well, right?"

"It's more than just hard to live in. It's simply a cold winter! A few years ago, Shanda dominated the world, then it was NetEase, and now it's Tencent. It can be said that the entire game market is basically monopolized by these big companies. Small companies like us are just picking up the leftovers that slip through their fingers. No, we don't even have the qualifications to be picky. It's embarrassing."

Yinhan Technology started out as a WAP mobile online game company and made a lot of money at the time.

Basically, most game companies start out by piggybacking on big IPs.

For example, Yinhan made a game called "Water Margin Heroes" at the beginning, taking advantage of the popularity of the 108 heroes of the Water Margin.

There were so many similar big IP games on feature phones at that time!
Themes such as "Journey to the West", "Jianghu" and "Wulin" are elements of games and are naturally popular.

In addition to these, the bigger IP is about Jin Yong.

For example, "Demi-Gods and Semi-Devils", "The Return of the Condor Heroes", "The Heaven Sword and Dragon Saber", etc., Mr. Jin's game IPs also sold a lot of money at the time!
This is how Yinhan became rich.

But while game companies make money, they also burn money.

Yinhan Technology Co., Ltd. is keeping up with the times and taking steps of continuous exploration.

From WAP mobile, to Java mobile, then to PC games, web games, and finally to Android online games.

Liu Yong has tried all of them over the years, but the results have been less than satisfactory.

For example, Yinhan Technology developed two games two years ago.

They are the PC game "Journey to the West Online" and the mobile game "Dream Back to the Westward Journey". Even though the two games have made some progress by riding on the popularity of the big IP "Journey to the West", they still do not make any money.

It’s mainly because of this IP. Everyone has become immune to it.

The largest game IP about Journey to the West, and the traffic is all in NetEase’s “Fantasy Westward Journey”.

Besides, everyone is tired of the fact that game companies are always trying to make money from works like "Journey to the West" and "Jin Yong".

Therefore, Liu Yong was not wrong when he said that we should eat other people’s leftovers.

Their Yinhan Technology seems to be doing well on the surface.

In fact, behind the scenes, he was crying and snotting.

Because their Yinhan Technology’s net profit in 2011 was only a pitiful 62.93!
In the past few years, we were even making losses!

What we eat are just the savings from the initial stage!

Liu Yong was also feeling very sad. When he started to complain to Yang Xiao, an outsider, he actually seemed quite sincere, which made Yang Xiao think he had met a professional actor.

However, Yang Xiao is also a well-trained supporting actor, and he continued to comfort her:
"Not really. I think Mr. Liu's game Journey to the West Online is quite popular. I remember the download volume exceeded 10 million. There should be at least 1 million users left, right?"

"Well, I'm thankful that there are 500,000 real users."

"Mr. Liu, you are being modest, aren't you? Your operational capabilities are truly admirable."

"It's not worth mentioning. Mr. Yang, you are also an expert in the Internet. You should know that the number of downloads is fake. If users don't stay and don't pay, it still has no value."

Since Yang Xiao had asked Zhao Qian to reveal her identity before visiting, Liu Yong did not shy away from some of the words.

But when it comes to operational capabilities, he really doesn't dare to brag about it in front of Yang Xiao.

He had already figured out Yang Xiao's background, and even had great admiration for him in his heart.

He never expected that this young man was so talented.

Yang Xiao is the master of operations!
As far as he knows, Yang Xiaoqi is a well-known internet celebrity.

Judging from the fact that his books are popular, he has a group of fans with purchasing power.

Moreover, not only him personally, but also his Time Culture Media Company has several popular artists.

They all have a very notable characteristic, that is, their fans are extremely sticky!
It is not difficult to see that there is obviously a professional public relations team planning and operating behind this.

Moreover, Liu Yong was sure that these methods must be related to Yang Xiao.

Because Yang Xiao is still an Internet practitioner, he can barely be considered a colleague!

Two products from Yang Xiao’s Internet technology company.

Whether it is WIFI Master Key or Kuaipak.

The coverage of these two products can only be described as terrifying.

Whether it is fans or users, they all need to be operated.

It can be said that Yang Xiao is a natural Internet expert in this area. How could Liu Yong dare to underestimate him?

How dare I show off my so-called "operational" skills in front of him?

Moreover, the more capable Yang Xiao is, the more Liu Yong dares not to be careless.

As for what Yang Xiao said, want to take his express train?

Well said!

He was thinking, why didn't Yang Xiao go to someone else but to him?

What background or no background? He has heard a lot of empty words. We are all thousand-year-old foxes, why play Strange Stories from a Chinese Studio?

Therefore, Liu Yong just responded to Yang Xiao's topic, but in fact, what he said were all irrelevant.
In fact, he didn't really want to deal with Yang Xiao. After all, this young man was not as harmless as he seemed.

I just hope Yang Xiao finishes his tea and leaves quickly.

Yang Xiao continued to play dumb, blew a mouthful of the tea foam floating on the paper cup, and said slowly:

"Mr. Liu, I know that your ability and vision are beyond doubt. Smart phones are becoming more and more popular, and feature phones are gradually withdrawing from the market. The mobile game market has broad prospects and is a blue ocean. Your Yinhan Company should also be preparing bullets and ready to go, right?"

"No, no, the mobile game market has a bright future, but everyone is crossing the river by feeling the stones. This is especially true in the game industry. Sometimes, a project that costs tens or even hundreds of millions of dollars fails to make a splash in the market. Users don't like it or buy it. Too many people have lost all their money. How can I dare to jump in so easily?"

"Yes, the gaming industry is now in a state of decline. Those who survived are all experts who have experienced many hardships and have some unique skills."

"Haha, maybe."

Hearing this, Liu Yong's eyes narrowed, knowing that Yang Xiao was praising him again.

But what he was thinking was, why is this young man never going to stop?
So, he remained silent after he finished speaking, not intending to respond. After casually fooling Yang Xiao with this sentence, he thought about it and couldn't help but confirm Yang Xiao's intention, so he asked directly:
"Boss Yang, if you have something to say, just say it directly. There's no need to keep us in suspense."

When Yang Xiao heard this, he immediately laughed.

He also saw Liu Yong's intention and thought that Mr. Liu was really a decent man. As the head of a company, he was willing to spend so much time and personally accompany him to brag for half a day.

If it were someone who was impatient, he would probably just find someone to send him away.

So he didn't plan to continue to joke with Liu Yong, and said directly:
"Mr. Liu, why don't you believe me? I really want to cooperate with you. I am very optimistic about the mobile game market and I believe in your company's capabilities."

"Oh? So how exactly do we want to cooperate?" "I want to acquire Yinhan Technology."

After these words were spoken, Liu Yong stared at him intently, with a smile on his face. He did not speak for a while, and the atmosphere in the air seemed to freeze for a few seconds.

Yang Xiao also smiled, but did not say anything, waiting for what was to come.

Only Zhao Qian was standing aside, she was so nervous that she dared not even breathe.

What she was thinking was, isn’t Mr. Yang too willful?
Yesterday, MiHoYo was also a gaming company, and it only invested two million and held 30% of the shares.

Today they are even greedier than yesterday, and they directly say "acquisition"!
The key is that Yinhan Technology is a mature game company, and its market value and scale are not comparable to miHoYo.

Compared with the former, the latter is more like playing house.

Two pairs of eyes returned to Liu Yong. He did not let anyone wait for long. His smile suddenly became as warm as the spring breeze, and he said cheerfully:
"This is a good thing! It is our honor that President Yang thinks highly of our Yinhan Technology. I just don't know how much our Yinhan Technology is worth in President Yang's eyes?"

"Then I'll just give you a random estimate, 1.2 million."

Hiss. Zhao Qian was startled.

Is Yang Xiao just yelling for fun?

Because what Yang Xiao just talked about was acquisition, not financing!
At least you have to get more than 50% and have the right to speak in the company before you dare to talk about acquisition.

50% of the shares, that would be 6000 million.

Where does he get so much money?
The price was a bit high, but Liu Yong was a worldly-wise man, so he wasn't that surprised.

"Mr. Yang thinks highly of our Yinhan Technology. As long as you pay such a high price, all the employees of Yinhan Technology are willing to work for you."

Of course Liu Yong also knew that Yang Xiao couldn't possibly have so much cash.

Moreover, he actually had no intention of selling Yinhan Technology, so he retreated on the surface and responded with a polite smile on his face.

Unless he continues to sell his shares in Kuaiya or WIFI Master Key.

But if he were Yang Xiao, he would never do that.

Kuaiya's investors will not let him do this. Selling the shares of WIFI Master Key now will mean a loss. Only a fool would do that!

It’s better to continue spending money to make the pie bigger, and then cash out when the time comes. You can earn more than making games!
There's really no comparison between the two.

"What did I say just now? I came here to cooperate with you, Mr. Liu, not to ask you to work for me."

Yang Xiao smiled at this time and continued, "Besides, I don't have a big appetite. I only want 51% of the shares."

"Boss Yang, excuse me, do you really have so much money?"

Liu Yong felt a little unsure at this moment and did not dare to continue the conversation.

He now has some doubts as to whether Yang Xiao is some top-notch rich second-generation or has some unknown connections.

The former is not so bad, it can be discussed and he also has room to refuse.

If it's the latter, then it's troublesome.

Yang Xiao didn't know that Liu Yong had already started imagining things, so he still had that leisurely yet mysterious attitude and said something to reassure Liu Yong:

"To be honest, I don't have that much money. If Mr. Liu is willing to take cash, I can find a way to get it together. For example, I plan to pledge the shares of Qingsong Online Technology Company and get 50 or 60 million. It's not difficult."

"This"

"Mr. Liu, please wait and listen to me. To show my sincerity, I am willing to use 1000 million in cash and 5% of the equity of Qingsong Online Technology Company to complete this transaction."

"Mr. Yang, are you serious? Everyone knows that WIFI master keys are very popular. Are you willing to give them up?"

This time, Liu Yong really believed that Yang Xiao was serious.

WIFI Master Key, the current Internet star, together with Yang Xiao’s cooperation with many manufacturers, has quickly captured the market with its “mobile phone factory-fresh” marketing approach.

They even launched the slogan "Let everyone have access to free WIFI".

Based on the current market value of Qingsong Internet Technology Co., Ltd., a conservative estimate is that one billion is no problem at all.

With this 5% stake, Yinhan Technology has definitely made a profit!

Considering the current size of the mobile phone market, they are sure to make money from this deal, there is no risk at all!
You know, they are in the gaming industry, which carries much greater risks!
If a game is produced and not accepted by the market, all the initial investment will be wasted!
Liu Yong has experienced many failures.

"I'm not kidding. I said this is my sincerity. Besides, Mr. Liu should also know my channels. Whether it's endorsements from my artists or advertising resources, the products produced by our Yinhan Technology are all easy to deal with."

Yang Xiao looked very serious and even said "our Yinhan".

Liu Yong had already been very excited after hearing this, but this was not just his business, there were other shareholders involved.

Even if he wanted to agree immediately, he couldn't.

"Mr. Yang, I believe in your sincerity. I will call a shareholder meeting right away and give you a reply soon. How about that?"

"it is good."

Yang Xiao did not waste any time and discussed some details of the acquisition with Liu Yong again.

The latter did not dare to be careless and just made sure of the authenticity of Yang Xiao's promise.

After the negotiation, the acquisition was basically finalized.

As for the shareholders' meeting, Liu Yong has the final say.

At noon, Liu Yong invited Yang Xiao to have a meal. During the conversation, he revealed the news of the launch of the "Time and Space Hunter" project.

This is also Liu Yong’s concern.

As I said, the risk of making games now is too great!

This project is not a small one, with an estimated funding of nearly 10 million. He can’t afford to lose!

Yang Xiao was not surprised to hear the news.

After all, he came here just for this game.

He is even willing to exchange 5% of the shares, which shows Yang Xiao's determination.

The main thing is that currently this is the only game that is the most suitable cash cow for Yang Xiao!
Whether it is a media company, a newly made music player, or other invested companies, they all need time to "grow and develop."

Yang Xiao no longer had any more money to do things.

Only aim at Yinhan Technology!

After a year of waiting, it finally came out.

no way.

The gimmick of this game is so profitable.

"time Hunter"

Many people may not have played this game and may be unfamiliar with its name.

But it has another nickname, which many people must have heard of.
