Reborn in Hong Kong as a Tycoon

Chapter 209 "Western Cowboys"

During the time when Shirley Lansing was resigning, Lin Baicheng came to Zhonghe Game Company.

It has been a while since the game company was established, the company's shelf has been set up, some game R&D employees have been recruited, and all the equipment has been bought.

The initial capital of 1000 million US dollars is more than enough to develop an arcade game without investing in the construction of a factory.

Since the establishment of the company, Lin Baicheng sent a financial person into the company except for the investment of 400 million US dollars, and did not intervene in the others.Lin Baicheng didn't attach much importance to this joint venture, so he only sent financial personnel to ensure his interests.

Unlike Lin Baicheng, Phil Smith and Wade Thomas attach great importance to it.The establishment of the entire company was mainly led by Phil Smith, and Wade Thomas also provided support through Goldman Sachs channels.

For example, among the employees of game development, several were poached from Atari and Fairchild Semiconductor through Goldman Sachs channels, and they are rare talents.

Phil Smith also thought that the company would be able to develop several popular games, which would allow him to make a fortune along the way.Not to mention Wade Thomas, although he is an executive of Goldman Sachs, but in terms of wealth, he is the least of the three. This time, Zhonghe Games has 5% of his shares, and he has great influence on the company's development. He has high hopes and hopes that through this company, his net worth will skyrocket.

Up to now, the company's equipment has been delivered and the employees have been recruited. It is unreasonable for Lin Baicheng not to come.After all, the research and development of the game requires him to intervene. If he doesn't come here, it is impossible for the company to just wait for him.

It is rare for Lin Baicheng to come to Zhonghe Game Company, and of course Phil Smith and Wade Thomas will also come.

Phil Smith said: "Alan, now that the company has been set up, it's up to you to lead the employees to develop games."

Wade Thomas asked aloud: "Alan, do you have any ideas about the company's first game to be developed?"

"I've already decided what game to develop."

Lin Baicheng nodded, and said to the surprise of Phil Smith and Wade Thomas: "This game takes the western cowboy as the protagonist, and the name is temporarily called "Western Cowboy."

"This is a pistol shooting game, which belongs to the horizontal version of the clearance game. The game screen moves forward from left to right. The protagonist cowboy and the enemy fight through gun battles. The style must be western style, and it depends on the development personnel. gone."

"Western style, I think there should be a big market."

After hearing this, Wade Thomas said that in the United States, the western cowboy style is still very popular.Whether it's film and television, or novels and games, the western style market has always been big.

"Alan, no matter what, you still need to bring along a team of R&D personnel. I'm afraid they haven't understood your idea."

Phil Smith is very clear that the development of the game still depends on Lin Baicheng. It is precisely because of Lin Baicheng's ability in game development that he invites Lin Baicheng to establish a game company together and allows Lin Baicheng to get the most shares of the company.

"I'll try my best, you know, I'm very busy."

Lin Baicheng nodded, he will take some time to guide the employees of Zhonghe Game Company, but he will not put too much energy on this, after all, this company is not under his control.

In this regard, Phil Smith and Wade Thomas have no objection, which has been agreed before the establishment of the game company.

Lin Baicheng went to meet with the game developers of Zhonghe Game Company, and told them the theme of the development, and at the same time, he also explained some of the gameplay, and they had to fill in the plot and details by themselves.

In addition, Lin Baicheng doesn't care whether the game developers have fully understood what he said, and directly asks them to develop the character's game style first, and he will read it next time when he comes over, and compare it with the original game in his mind. How much difference will it make.

In this way, if it doesn’t work, it must be revised again, which wastes both R&D time and R&D funds.

But there is no way around it. Lin Baicheng would rather waste some research and development time and funds than waste his own time, which is even more precious.

After evening, Lin Baicheng left Zhonghe Game Company and went back to Beverly Hills.

When Lin Baicheng came back, his father Lin Haishan and mother Zhao Huilan were already in the villa.

"Dad, Mom, you are here, don't let anyone notify me."

Lin Baicheng walked over and sat down next to his mother Zhao Huilan.

Lin Haishan said: "Is there anything to inform, anyway, we will return to Xiangjiang tomorrow, and it's not that we don't see much of you."

Zhao Huilan said: "Son, this is your sister's birthday, do you want to go back?"

"I'm not going back."

Lin Baicheng said: "I have already made an agreement with my little sister, when parents and you go back tomorrow, just take my gift back with you."

"It's just a birthday. It's okay if you don't go back. Your career is more important."

Lin Haishan said aloud, before Lin Baicheng made his fortune, there was no special arrangement for someone's birthday in the family, and they just ate longevity noodles and a few eggs.

"Your dad was right."

Zhao Huilan nodded in agreement, and then said: "But son, although career is important, body is also important. Don't be too busy and remember to take care of yourself."

"Mom, don't worry, I will eat well and live well, and I won't treat myself badly."

Lin Baicheng responded with a smile, and continued: "Dad, Mom, after you return to Xiangjiang, stay for a while, and then go to Japan to have fun, and then I will arrange someone to be your guide, take a look around."

"Let's talk about it later."

Lin Haishan said: "We have spent a lot of time in the United States this time. It is true that foreign countries are different from our Xiangjiang, but no matter how good it is, it is not as good as our hometown. When you want to travel, your mother and I will come out to play again. Usually We are still used to staying in Xiangjiang."

Zhao Huilan nodded and said: "Your father is right, son, you don't have to worry about us, we will take care of ourselves."

"That's fine too. Anyway, you can play as much as you want, and remember not to think about saving money."

Lin Baicheng didn't object, it's better for parents to decide whether they want to travel around the world or not.If they don't like or are not used to long-term travel, but he insists on arranging them to travel, then they will not be happy, which is contrary to his original intention.

The next morning, Lin Baicheng sent his parents to the airport and watched them pass the security check with bodyguards.
