Rebirth, I really don't want to be a warm man

Chapter 663 Daughter is not in a hurry, mother is in a hurry

Since its listing in 2014, the development of Funwan Technology has fallen into a bottleneck period in the past three to four years, and the growth of game revenue has slowed down significantly, and even experienced negative growth for a time.

This also caused the company's market value to stagnate.

In 2014, the market value of Funwan Technology was 436.54 billion U.S. dollars, and now it is only 511 billion U.S. dollars, with limited growth.

Last year, the market value fell below $400 billion.

However, the market value of Netyi has grown rapidly in recent years, breaking through the US$200 billion and US$300 billion mark one after another, narrowing the gap with Funwan Technology.

The market value of Penguin and Ari has risen year after year. In 2016, there was another large-scale reform of real estate companies across the country, but the market value of Funwan Technology has been stagnant. This also caused Li Zhe to lose his position as the richest man.

And its ranking on the rich list has been declining year after year.

Last year, his worth of US$236 billion ranked fourth on the list, falling out of the top three.

(In 2016, the market value of Funwan Technology fell to 368 billion US dollars at its lowest point.)
However, Pinxixi went public this year, and the valuation of the fun video delivery model has also increased significantly. When the rich list is released again in October, Li Zhe is likely to become the richest man again.

Funwan Technology has developed rapidly in the past few years, mainly relying on the strong gold-absorbing ability of many popular games such as "Aion", "League of Legends", "Dandantang", "Divine Comedy", etc.
There are also [-] or [-] smart phones and ipid mini-games such as "Angry Birds", "Temple Escape", and "Tricky Pig", which have brought huge profits from overseas export.

Especially since 2011, small games such as "Angry Birds" have entered a period of explosive profitability. Over the past three to four years, overseas revenue has even accounted for more than 60% of Funwan Technology's total revenue, which also allowed Fundong Group to catch up in game revenue. Penguin group.

However, since 2015, the popularity of small games on smartphones has gradually cooled, and overseas revenue has dropped sharply, and even the peripherals of the games cannot be sold.

Coupled with the rise of the mobile game market, large PC end games and page games began to decline.

Although Funwan Technology started to lay out the mobile game market very early on, and developed many popular mobile games such as "The Jedi Strikes Back", "Glory of the King", "The Coast of the Land", etc., the current increase in revenue from mobile games It can only offset the reduced revenue from PC games, web games and overseas markets.

To put it simply, Li Zhe had opened too many hacks before, and created so many popular games, which made Funwan's technology take a big step forward, and even develop rapidly.

Now the early hooks are starting to fail, but he can't open too many new ones.

In fact, the development of Funwan technology has not slowed down, but has returned to a normal state of development.

Since 12 years later, Li Zhe has basically seldom asked about the specific affairs of Funwan Technology. The last order he gave was to develop two mobile games, "Glory of the King" and "Ban of the Land".

On the one hand, Funwan Technology must return to a normal state of development, and it cannot always rely on him to open it. On the other hand, he does not have much "vision and insight".

In the previous life, Li Zhe occasionally played games before the age of 30, but basically said goodbye to games after the age of 30.

He only heard that "Yuan Shen" sprang up suddenly, and even became popular overseas, threatening the two game giants Penguin and Netyi. Penguin wanted to acquire the development company of "Yuan Shen" but failed.

But what kind of game "Original God" is, he has no idea at all.

However, "Yuan Shen" was developed by miHoYo, which Li Zhe still knows.

Therefore, as early as 2012, shortly after miHoYo was established, he became a shareholder of this small company with only a dozen people, but he did not interfere with the company's development.

In January of this year, miHoYo established the project "Yuan Shen", Li Zhe made an exception and intervened in the company, adding funds to allow them to speed up the development of "Yuan Shen".

The initial development team has directly increased from the expected 120 people to 300 people.

It no longer takes three years, and the development of "Yuan Shen" can be completed in at most one or two years.

Li Zhe held the meeting this time to teach the executives of Funwan Technology.

Since the listing of Funwan Technology, the company's management has become a little arrogant and inflated, and the management has also begun to become rigid.
Several large-scale mobile games have been developed, which are technically outstanding, and the content and gameplay are also rich, but they are too modular and lack bright spots and novelties, so the performance of the games after they are launched is mediocre.

This is also a common problem of large companies, which is conservative and overstaffed.

The leadership felt that as long as they followed the process, they could miraculously continue to succeed, so they began to implement a strict process system, and soon employees regarded following the process and discipline as the job itself.

Li Zhe wants to tell them that the most important point of a game is always the player's sense of experience, not to teach the player what game to play, but to figure out what kind of game the player wants to play.

We cannot dare to innovate in order to seek stability.

And ask them to send someone to miHoYo to investigate.

miHoYo is a company that values ​​players, and its operating philosophy is "customer first". Compared with Penguin Games and Internet Yi, it is more daring to innovate.

miHoYo's starting point is very low. When developing the first game "Honkai 1", the team only had a dozen people, and they didn't even know how to do it, so they borrowed other game systems.

Using the borrowed system, I made a fairly good game.

Games are like writing online articles. Everyone is copying each other, but at the same time copying others must at least come up with something new.

Li Zhe seldom gets angry, but this time he lost his temper and made all the senior executives present shudder.

After the meeting, he took Huo Mengyan back to the president's office.

Seeing Li Zhe came back, Zhou Qing, who had been sitting in the reception area for a while, stood up immediately.

"Xiao Zhe, have you finished the meeting?"

Why did his cheap mother-in-law come here?

Li Zhe's eyes fell on Zhou Qing's face, and he noticed that her left cheek was swollen, which looked like she had a piece of candy in her mouth.

"Auntie, you are sick, how about I find a doctor to help you?"

"It's nothing serious, I just have a toothache, just take some medicine." Zhou Qing forced a smile.

Where did she have a toothache, she was suffering from parotitis in a fit of anxiety and anger.

Zhou Qing's biggest wish, or obsession, is to officially become Li Zhe's mother-in-law one day.

Therefore, when she heard that Zhou Ziyu had made up his own mind and gave up the opportunity to obtain a certificate with Li Zhe, she became extremely annoyed and almost beat him up.

This is the position of the richest wife, how could she, a silly daughter, be willing to refuse?

The richest man's wife for a year, that is also the richest man's wife, and also the richest man's ex-wife after divorce.

Isn't it much better than the one with no name and no score like now?
Besides, you don't want to be the richest man's wife, but I also want to be the richest man's mother-in-law!

Zhou Qing tried her best to persuade Zhou Ziyu for several days, telling her to go to Li Zhe to say that she regretted it, but Zhou Ziyu was indifferent.

Seeing that Zhou Ziyu couldn't be moved, she had no choice but to come to Li Zhe to see if she could recover.

"Auntie, let's go to my office and talk." Li Zhe also saw that Zhou Qing had something to do with him.

"Xiao Zhe, then I will disturb you!" Zhou Qing said in a favorable manner.

Li Zhe brought Zhou Qing to the inner office, and then told Huo Mengyan, "Find a better dentist."
