My 1999

Most of the Penguin employees had a great time stealing food.

During the testing process, the entire company became familiar with the game, and each employee received a task - to serve as a game experiencer.

If any employee can put forward useful suggestions or novel ideas, once adopted, he will be rewarded with a reward of 10,000 yuan.

Of course, playing farm games at work is allowed for the time being.

The penguin goes up and down and transforms into a food-stealing master. The superiors steal from their subordinates, and the subordinates steal from their superiors...

Every employee's face is filled with the joy of succeeding in stealing food and the disappointment of failing to steal food or being stolen.

As soon as the game was launched, Penguin built a complete game network internally.

Because the whole company is playing, there are so many dishes to steal, which maximizes the fun of this game.

After Xu Liang tied a dog to his farm, he quit the game still unsatisfied.

The memory of everyone stealing food from his previous life is still fresh. After Xu Liang came up with the game plan for "League of Legends", he gave the plan for "Happy Farm" to Penguin.

This casual game is not complicated, and it took Penguin half a year to make it.

Xu Liang tried it, and it was just like in his memory.

He took out his cell phone and called Bonima.

"Mr. Xu?"

"How about the data of "Farm Farm"?"

There was excitement in Ponima's voice.

"It's very good. The number of registered users has exceeded 500,000 in two days since its launch, and the number of people online at the same time has exceeded 120,000. Judging from user feedback, "Happy Farm" is very playable, has good user reviews, and has great growth potential. "

"Have Japanese, Korean, and English versions been developed?"

"It has been developed. The Japanese, Korean and Traditional Chinese versions will be released in a week; the English version will be launched on the Facebook game channel in three days."

Facebook, like Penguin, is a pan-entertainment and community platform.

It's just that Facebook doesn't make games itself, it only promotes games.

Penguin not only makes its own games, but also promotes them.

“While releasing, don’t forget to improve the playability of the game.

For example, a small window can be designed on the game page to display the ranking of friends' farm levels to encourage players to have a competitive mentality. Wouldn't the active time of the game be increased?

As you play for a long time and there are more people, won’t the income from props fall?

Also, "Farm Farm" is just a simple casual game after all. Over time, curiosity has passed, and fewer people have played it.

Therefore, the subsequent "Pistachio Garden" and "Happy Ranch" must also accelerate the research and development and launch them one after another to increase user stickiness. "

"You can rest assured that the game department led by Ren Yuxin is very active. They have already implemented the research and development of "Pistachio Garden" and "Happy Ranch" and will launch them on the market in at most three months."

"That's good. Have you communicated with Hanhua about the listing?"

"The details of the prospectus are currently being discussed."

"Send me an email when you have the results."

"OK."

After hanging up the phone, Xu Liang started to deal with other work.

It's night time soon.

In the restaurant.

Xu Liang sat in the middle, Qiao Yuhui and Zhang Junning sat on the right, and Xu Meng sat on the right with Xu Wenqing and Xu Wenyu, who were three years old.

The two little guys are very close to their aunts, one on each side, holding a small bowl, and his little mouth is full.

"I'm going back to the capital in a few days. Do you want to go back with me?"

"No, I finally took a few days off so I won't go back."

"Holiday? Why did I hear Xiaoyang say that you ran away to avoid the blind date?"

When Xu Meng heard this, annoyance appeared on her pretty face.

"I'm only 24 years old, and Comrade Wang Lingxiang started trying to find a partner for me, and even mobilized Sister Xiaoyang to introduce me. I'm really annoyed."

After finishing his words, he looked at Xu Liang warily.

"My parents won't let you be a lobbyist, right?"

"My parents did tell me so, but you still have to make your own decisions about love and marriage. I won't interfere with you."

"Hehe, thank you, old man."

"Xiaomeng, if you find a boyfriend one day, I will keep an eye on you and never find a playboy like your brother." Qiao Yu said wisely.

"Thank you, Sister Yuhui. But if he dares to cheat, I will kill him."

Xu Meng made a scissor-like shape with her left hand, and her pretty face was fierce.

Seeing this, Xu Liang couldn't help but mourn for his future brother-in-law.

——

No. 1, Connaught Road Central, Hong Kong Central.

A black Mercedes slowly parked in the parking lot downstairs.

The car door opened, and a middle-aged man in a suit and gold-rimmed glasses stepped out.

Also getting off the bus was Wang Tao, who was wearing a gray sweatshirt and black sweatpants.

"Teacher, is this the headquarters of Hanhua?"

"To be precise, this is the headquarters of Hanhua International, which is mainly responsible for overseas investment business. Its management center is located in the capital. Let's go, it's almost time, let's go in."

"oh."

The two entered the gate.

Directly opposite the grand hall is a huge Hanhua logo on the wall.

On the left is the seating area, and on the right is the built-in landscape strip.

There were burly bodyguards in black suits and sunglasses at the door and in the lobby.

Come to the front desk.

"Hello, this is my business card. We have an appointment with Mr. Xu."

The lady at the front desk took it and took a look.

"You two, please come with me."

There is a gate between the lobby and the elevator, and you must have a business card to pass.

Both sides were staring at each other with bulging waists. They looked like they were not easy to mess with. Everyone who entered and left was well-behaved.

After passing through the gate, the front desk took the two people to the elevator and went all the way to the top floor.

Li Jinling, who had received the news in advance, was already waiting here.

"Mr. Li, Mr. Wang, please follow me."

He took the two people into Xu Liang's office in a businesslike manner.

"Mr. Xu, Mr. Li Zexiang and Mr. Wang Tao are here."

Xu Liang smiled and greeted them.

Before he could speak, Li Zexiang had already taken two steps forward and took the initiative to extend his hands.

"Mr. Xu, I have heard of your name for a long time. Today, I see that you are indeed a dragon and a phoenix, and you are worthy of your reputation."

He has worked hard in society for half his life, but he is not the fledgling Wang Tao.

The latter knows that Xu Liang is awesome, but has no idea how awesome he is.

But Li Zexiang is different.

He has his own business and knows very well the difficulty of starting a business.

He knows even more clearly the value of becoming the richest man in Asia and the second richest man in the world after Bill Gates in seven years.

"Professor Li, thank you for your compliment. Please take a seat."

The two sat down and Li Jinling brought tea.

After a brief chat, Xu Liang turned his eyes.

"Wang Tao, the last time we met, I had already made the conditions very clear.

Do you have any objections?"

Wang Tao subconsciously glanced at his teacher.

Li Zexiang saw it and sighed in his heart.

This student of his is indeed excellent, but he lacks social experience.

This glance of his revealed all his secrets.

Seeing this, Li Zexiang simply stopped hiding.

"Mr. Xu, we hope to get financing from Hanhua instead of directly acquiring it;

In addition, in order to consolidate our management rights over the company, DJI will implement a two-tier equity structure.

Of course, the angel round can release more rights to you."

Xu Liang picked up the teacup and took a sip.

"How much equity financing do you plan to take out? How much financing amount?"

"Angel round 20%, financing 2 million Chinese yuan."

Li Zexiang said.

"Is DJI worth 10 million now?"

"This is Sequoia's valuation of DJI, not our own. If we hadn't considered Mr. Xu's insight and found DJI first, we might have signed a contract with Sequoia."

Xu Liang's calm eyes slowly swept over the two people.

Li Zexiang and Wang Tao quickly avoided him, not daring to look him in the eye.

The atmosphere in the conference room also became depressing in an instant.

"In my current position, I rarely participate in mergers and acquisitions below $1 billion.

The reason I went to DJI last time was just because I saw its name in Hanhua's investigation report. It happened that I was optimistic about the future of drones, so I came to them on a whim.

Of course, Mr. Wang Tao is indeed a very good engineer.

And he is very forward-looking.

Your persistence in your dream reminds me of my past self.

That's why I want to acquire it.

Now that you plan to raise funds on your own, it is also human nature.

When DJI is successful, you will get more returns.

But I really don't have the patience to accompany DJI to grow slowly, and time does not allow it.

So, we can only cooperate again when we have the opportunity in the future."

Li Zexiang gave Wang Tao a look, signaling him to stay calm.

"Mr. Xu, if you are not satisfied with the conditions, you can ask for it."

"The last time I met with Wang Tao, the conditions were very clear, there is no need to repeat. I have just told you about my plan for the drone industry.

What I want is to invest a lot of money and quickly recruit a large R\u0026D team to make drones.

Instead of playing the tactic of adding fuel to the fire."

Xu Liang smiled and continued: "I think I have made it very clear this time."

Li Zexiang was silent for a moment.

"Mr. Xu, Hanhua's venture capital business is the best in China. Can we cooperate with Hanhua?"

"Of course.

Although Hanhua is the company I founded, I am no longer responsible for the specific management. You can go to Hanhua Pengcheng Office to talk."

Li Zexiang nodded and stood up slowly.

"Then we will say goodbye first."

Xu Liang also stood up.

"Goodbye. ... Sister Li, please see them off for me."

After Li Jinling nodded.

"Please follow me, both of you."

After the two nodded in greeting, they turned around and followed her out of the office.

Not long after, Li Jinling came back.

"Mr. Xu, are you giving up just like that?"

"Everyone has their own ambitions, and you can't force them. ... But we can't give up on drones. Contact a headhunter immediately. I need a CEO who understands drones.

Also, recruit a group of engineers to set up the R\u0026D center as soon as possible."

"Understood."

If there is no Butcher Wang, then find Butcher Li.

With so many talents in the world, plus the huge resources he can provide now, and the knowledge he gained in his previous life, it is not difficult to replace DJI as the leader of drones.

——

On the way back.

"Teacher, what should we do? Go to Sequoia for financing?" Wang Tao asked.

Li Zexiang sighed.

"Except Xu Liang, we have no other choice."

"Why?"

Looking at his unconvinced look, Li Zexiang explained.

"Teacher admits that you are a genius, but even the most talented person needs help to achieve success.

Your DJI company is now just a handmade workshop without any results, and you need a lot of people to support your research and development of drones.

Under normal circumstances.

DJI should have gone through the angel round, A round, B round, etc., raising funds step by step, and becoming stronger little by little.

But now you have a strong competitor.

As a person with a net worth of more than 50 billion US dollars, Xu Liang, who controls technology companies such as Hongmeng, Kunlun, Penguin, Alibaba, and Facebook, can mobilize more resources than you can imagine.

Ideally, DJI will raise 1 million Chinese yuan in the angel round and recruit more than a dozen engineers.

But Xu Liang can easily mobilize hundreds of millions, even tens of billions, and hundreds of engineers for research and development.

The gap between you is too big.

This is not competition, but crushing. ”

“Teacher, I admit that Xu Liang is a genius in finance and business, but he doesn’t understand drones.” Wang Tao said unconvinced.

“Of course he doesn’t understand drones, and he is far behind you in this regard.”

Seeing Wang Tao’s expression eased, Li Zexiang changed the subject.

“Have you seen the recent video of the Kunlun mobile phone launch conference?”

“I saw it, it’s a very cool mobile phone. I have already placed an order on Kunlun's official website, but unfortunately I have to wait in line for the goods. "Wang Tao was looking forward to it but also a little annoyed.

"Xu Liang doesn't know much about mobile phones, but he led the team to develop Kunlun and even surpassed Apple."

"You mean, Kunlun mobile phone is Xu Liang's achievement?"

"Yes."

"Impossible. The chief engineer of Kunlun mobile phone is Zhou Xiaoguang, this is the news on Kunlun's official website."

"Go to Youku to watch Qiu Bojun's interview video when you go back."

"I watched the video, but he said that just to flatter the boss Xu Liang."

Young people always stubbornly believe in what they think is right.

Li Zexiang, who has been teaching for many years, knows this very well, and he didn't forcefully correct it.

He sighed in his heart.

"Maybe.

Let's continue talking about drones.

If Xu Liang was not optimistic about the future of drones, how could he find you in person?

Obviously, he already had some application modes and profit methods of drones in his mind, and he wanted to acquire it because he knew it had great development prospects in the future.

Although you are also developing drones, you are just idealistic and do not have a clear and realistic plan.

You just muddle along.

Do you think you can compare with Xu Liang, who has abundant resources and has a certain understanding of the future development of drones? "

"I...?"

Although he is very proud and confident in his talent, he is not a fool.

He probably knows how much resources a super-rich man ranked second on the Forbes list can mobilize.

He is definitely not as good as him.

Seeing him waver, Li Zexiang said quickly.

"There are two paths in front of you now.

First, agree to Xu Liang's conditions.

In this way, you can immediately get 2 million and 5% of DJI's equity.

Second, agree to Sequoia or Hanhua's financing and build DJI yourself. "

After Wang Tao hesitated for a while.

"Teacher, which one should I choose?"

"The first one.

Sequoia and Hanhua are investment institutions, not charity halls, and the funds they give you are limited.

They are also unlikely to accept a dual-class equity structure.

Unless you are willing to accept more stringent conditions, it is better to reduce the investment amount of the angel round, the time to go public, etc.

And they will only give you the A round investment when DJI develops.

But under the fierce competition of Xu Liang, whether DJI can develop is unknown.

The first one is the safest.

With the capital and connections brought by Xu Liang, you don’t need to worry about the company’s R\u0026D funds, as long as you do R\u0026D steadily.

With his understanding of human-machine, it is highly likely that he will not interfere with you too much.

Once the company develops and goes public.

Your 5% equity will get a thousand times return, and it is also a high probability that you will become a billionaire overnight. ”

Wang Tao’s eyes flashed.

The wealth feast created by Hongmeng has long become a hot topic on the Chinese Internet, especially the listing of Bing, which has caused a sensation around the world.

Although he has never lacked money since he was a child.

But he is not uninterested in money.

Billionaire, this word is too tempting.

“Teacher, are we going back now?”

“Decided?”

“Yes. Drones are my ideal, and I don’t want anyone to tell me what to do with my research. "

Li Zexiang nodded, turned around the corner and drove back to Hanhua International Center.

Xu Liang was a little surprised by the reappearance of the two, but he was more curious.
