Chapter 271 It's So Difficult to Pick an Attractive Title
Zhang Shuo didn't really care much about how the three giants competed in the field of entertainment.

Entertainment was not the focus of Germinal's business.

On the contrary, Cao Yanhua's negotiation with V agency, after throwing out the bait, V agency finally let go, and began to discuss the acquisition of DOTA2 seriously.

obviously.

The golden signboard of Jade Bird Interactive Entertainment overseas is even louder than Zhang Shuo imagined.

In the eyes of V agency executives, Jade Bird Interactive Entertainment’s original strength is extraordinary in being able to produce explosive mobile games, especially mobile games like "Candy Crush" and "Clash of Clans" that are very suitable for overseas markets.

For the 3A masterpieces and end games that Jade Bird is developing, it is natural to have high expectations.

Of course.

Although Valve is not short of money, it doesn't mean they don't love money. Even if they want to sell DOTA2, they must sell it at a good price, or even kill Jade Bird Huyu.

Who told Jade Bird Interactive Entertainment to come to the door on its own initiative?

.........

Wednesday, April 9.

There is also a major event on the domestic Internet on this day. Mobile officially launched the social software "Feichat". As for whether it can challenge Weixin's status, of course it is——

Just be happy.

In the morning, Zhang Shuo held the monthly regular meeting of the Development and Strategy Committee in the conference room on the top floor of the Germination Building, and Cao Yanhua, general manager of Jade Bird Interactive Entertainment, was absent from the meeting.

Wang Tao, CEO of Wujiang Technology, attended the regular meeting for the first time as a newcomer.

Prior to this, Germination Group has signed a formal strategic investment agreement with Wujiang Technology, and its shareholding ratio in Wujiang Technology has increased to 48%.

The first topic of the meeting was to review the group's three investments, including—

Invested 4.0 million yuan to acquire the remaining shares of Bajie.com;
Invested 1.8 million yuan to acquire the remaining shares of AutoNet;
At the same time, in the name of Particle Fund, it invested 1 million yuan and obtained 5% shares of Oufeiguang, a mobile phone supplier.

All three investments were approved unanimously.

Jiang Yue, Lu Kai and others were naturally very calm, but Wang Tao, who was attending the meeting for the first time, unconsciously twitched his eyelids. He thought that Germination's investment in Wujiang Technology was already a big deal.

result……

In the budding investment sequence, Wujiang Technology is not even a big deal.

Immediately I couldn't be prouder.

"After the acquisition is completed, Bajie.com will be transferred to Qingyun Data, and Auto.com will be transferred to Qinghe Technology, and they will all be operated as secondary subsidiaries of the group." Zhang Shuo announced the decision.

"???"

Pei Weiping and the others looked at Zhao Xiaohu again.

It is not surprising that Bajie.com is allocated to Qingyun Data, which itself is the business development of Qingyun Data.

But the car network
There are various indications that Zhang Shuo intends to expand the assets of Qinghe Technology. Recently, he has been included in the three projects of Feixun, Motu Xiuxiu and Pangda Live.

Now even the car network, which cost a huge amount of money, is under the name of Qinghe Technology.

The result is--

Qinghe Technology has transformed from an Internet start-up enterprise with only one product, Weixin, into a comprehensive Internet enterprise covering social networking, office software, Meitu, live broadcast, and automobile information.

The coffee table was lifted up immediately.

As long as Zhang Shuo nods, Qinghe Technology can be upgraded to Qinghe Group at any time.

Preference is a bit too much.

Fortunately, Cao Yanhua was absent from the meeting, otherwise he would be too jealous to eat.

"Mr. Zhang, next month, the Wotu Research Institute project will be completed and delivered as a whole. By then, all the laboratories under the Wotu Research Institute will be able to move there. Germination Building will have a number of office areas vacant, and Wujiang Technology needs to be moved into Germinal Building?" Jiang Yue asked a question.

"what is your opinion?"

Zhang Shuo didn't answer directly, but looked at Wang Tao.

Although the Sprout Group increased its holdings of Wujiang Technology again, they are still not a family. Therefore, Wang Tao's opinion must be respected for all business decisions involving Wujiang Technology.

"Are you collecting rent?" Wang Tao asked.

"..."

Zhang Shuo's face darkened, and he said speechlessly, "No!"

"Then I'll move!"

Wang Tao is very straightforward. In fact, he has long coveted the office environment of the Germination Building.

"..."

This time, not only Zhang Shuo, but also other executives were dumbfounded.

As for?
"You guys, don't look at me like that."

Wang Tao was also frightened by being looked at, and quickly explained: "You have never experienced the difficulties in the early stage of starting a business. The office of Wujiang Technology has experienced garages and residential areas. Then of course I want it.”

"Ah ha ha."

Now it was embarrassing for Jiang Yue and the others.

Indeed.

They were very lucky to meet Zhang Shuo, a boss who is not short of money and generous. Since he took over Jade Bird Huyu, he has never treated everyone badly in the office environment.

But I forgot.

Things like Wujiang Technology are actually the norm in the industry.

"One last thing to report..."

Seeing this, Zhang Shuo talked about Jade Bird Interactive Entertainment's plan to acquire DOTA2, "If the acquisition is completed, the next stage of work is to vigorously promote the DOTA2 global professional league. My opinion is to select a subsidiary and invest in A DOTA2 professional e-sports club."

In order to make DOTA2 surpass the "League of Legends" in the original time and space, in addition to reducing the difficulty of the game, the most important thing is to strengthen the operation of the global professional league.

Zhang Shuo is going to focus on the China Division.

A very simple reason is that the player base in China is the largest. As long as you please the players in China, then DOTA2 will have a solid player base.

Don't worry about not being able to beat League of Legends.

Zhang Shuo is not going to imitate Tengda of the original time and space. He is obviously the father of Riot Games, but he hides it from the outside world, and has little say in the "League of Legends" global league.

Not only did the Huaxia Division not receive extra care, it even suffered unequal treatment.

It's so cowardly!
To develop a professional league well, a very important starting point is to accelerate the construction of DOTA2 professional sports clubs and increase support for clubs and professional players.

The excellent results obtained by the original space-time Huaxia in the follow-up of LOL have a lot to do with the capital entry.

"Let's just use wheat grain technology!"

Jiang Yue was the first to express, "Investing in e-sports clubs and obtaining the naming rights is also a soft advertisement. Among the many subsidiaries, only Maili Technology and Wujiang Technology have physical products, which are the most suitable for naming."

Jiang Yue didn't nominate Wujiang Technology, so he was still not familiar with it.

It's even worse to intervene at will.

"I agree!"

"agree!"

Pei Weiping, Zhao Xiaohu and others also followed suit.

"Then it's decided." Zhang Shuo doesn't like to be wordy. "Of course, it's just an internal proposal. The specific implementation will have to wait for Mr. Cao's negotiation to come to fruition."

.........

Friday, April 9.

Tomorrow is the weekend, and it is also the National Day holiday. Before the holiday, Jade Bird Interactive Entertainment once again handed in a brilliant answer, and turned in a profit of 8.2 million in September.

It's terrifying.

Of course, the Sprout Group spends money ruthlessly.

Due to the National Day holiday, the finance department of the group has already submitted the appropriation application for October in advance, which will be signed and approved by Zhang Shuo, and the funds will be transferred before the holiday, including——

Pay 0.5 million progress payment to the owner of Germination Building;

Pay 6.4 million progress payments to Nokia;

Appropriate 4 million research and development funds to Maili Technology;
Allocate 1 billion research and development funds to the Fertile Research Institute;
Appropriate 4.5 million project funds to Mengya Real Estate.

All together, it is a huge expenditure of 16.4 billion.

--slightly--

[Level]: Level 9 (193 million/800 million)
【Support Fund】: 1000 million/day

[Cash]: 38 billion

[Loans]: 71 billion (bank loans) + 2 billion (corporate bonds)
--slightly--

In September, Jade Bird Interactive Entertainment, together with profits and overseas agency fees, paid a huge sum of 23.2 billion in total, but it was only enough to cover the monthly expenses of the Sprout Group, and the net cash flow only increased by 1.5 million.

It's outrageous!

In addition to the monthly fixed expenses, it was also due to the continuous investment in Wujiang Technology, Bajie.com, and Auto.com in September, which consumed a lot of working capital.

And next month.

If Jade Bird Huyu negotiates the DOTA2 deal with V Agency, it will cost another 10 billion+.

It's a headache.

It seems that no matter how you make money, you can't keep up with the speed of spending money.

But in fact, after careful analysis, the mobile phone business sector occupies the largest monthly cash flow of the Sprout Group. In addition to the progress payment for patent licenses, there is also a monthly research and development expenditure of up to 4 million.

Add it all up and that's over a billion in fixed expenses every month.

Even for budding real estate, as the Fertile Land Research Institute is nearing completion, the progress payment in October has been reduced from the previous 5 million to 4.5 million.

In the future, as each project enters the middle and late stages, the project progress payment will continue to decrease.

Any company, even an Internet giant like Tenda, may not be able to cover the huge annual expenditure of tens of billions, or even exceed the total annual profit of Tenda.

It can be seen what kind of miracle Germination has created.

While dragging the mobile phone business sector forward, there is still room to continue investing in other areas.

No wonder Wang Tao was shocked.

If you don't enter the inner circle of the Germination system, you really don't know how crazy Germination is.

If the income from overseas agency rights is included, in 2011, Jade Bird Interactive Entertainment is expected to surpass Tenda Games and become the most profitable game manufacturer in China.

This is terrifying.

It’s no wonder that Tengda will face the enemy of Jade Bird Huyu, because it really threatens the survival of Tengda, and because of the frequent release of Jade Bird Huyu’s mobile games, it has actually affected the income of Tengda’s mobile games.

After all, the total plate is so big.

There are more players playing mobile games under Jade Bird Interactive Entertainment, and naturally fewer players are going to Tengda mobile games.

This is a very real problem.

Under the ebb and flow, it is quite difficult for Tenda to continue to maintain its position as the overlord of the game.

Worse--

Jade Bird Interactive Entertainment is still not satisfied, and continues to expand. In addition to self-developed end games, it also needs to buy DOTA2 to compete with Tenda in the field of competitive games.

Who can handle this?
"Next month, I will count on the overseas agency fee of "Clash of Clans." In order to maintain the capital chain of the Germination Group, Zhang Shuo is no different from dancing on a tightrope.
