Restart the Gaming Era

Lin Xiaoguang has lived, and it took a long time to say, "Mr. Zhong, you are a master ..."

Regarding the income of Weiguang Studio, Lin Xiaoguang can probably guess 7878. Just for the income of "Guardian of the Zodiac", there are about 80 million or 90 million yuan. Some of this is the normal share of the game, and some is 40 million exclusive expenses from Moya Technology.

In addition, the previous games of Weiguang Studio, although the popularity has passed, in fact, each month's sales also range from tens of thousands, hundreds of thousands of dollars, this is also a great income.

But, Zhong Ming wants to spend so much money to set up a new company R & D host? That was still a very risky act.

During this time, Zhong Ming invested money in three directions almost at the same time. He set up the Tianji Studio, set up a motion capture studio, recruited people, rented venues, plus the low-light studio and Tianji Studio started to develop new games. They are all very expensive.

After taking out 50 million to set up a new company as a host, Zhong Ming basically did not have much money left for daily turnover.

Once the next two games develop problems, or players do not buy after successfully making it, there is a risk that the capital chain will break.

However, in general, the figure of 50 million still made Lin Xiaoguang a little bit emotional.

In terms of the input of a hardware manufacturer, 50 million is actually not much, and there is no upper limit for burning money in hardware.

Zhong Ming's previous life Microsoft made a handle, and the R & D cost was 100 million US dollars, which is simply a bottomless pit.

Of course, if hardware is the cost, few companies in the world can afford it. Of course, Zhong Ming does not want such a gameplay. In fact, Lin Xiaoguang also knows that the new hardware company formed by Zhong Ming must be based on design and assembly in the early stage. Like many small manufacturers that make bracelets, they do not have much technology. The patent will not kill some of the most cutting-edge technologies, but just choose some relatively mature technologies on the market, integrate parts provided by various suppliers, and create a machine that can reach the average level on the market. .

Like many bracelet companies, the initial registered capital was only three or five million. After the first product was made, users have a good reputation, good sales, and continued attention. The subsequent capital injections and valuations continue. Improvement, from three to five million to three to five million, to a valuation of billions of dollars, all step by step.

Zhong Ming obviously has a bigger handwriting and jumped to the level of 50 million directly. It should be to get on the right track faster.

If only Lin Xiaoguang was dug alone, Lin Xiaoguang would definitely not come.

To make a handheld, the key is the team. Lin Xiaoguang is the manager, but it is impossible to play without professional technicians.

As a result, Zhong Ming directly said that the entire technical team dug it together, all at a premium of 30%, and at the same time, these start-ups can pay dividends according to the profitability of the subsidiary.

Of course, the greater temptation is freedom.

At Moya Technology, although Lin Xiaoguang is the vice president, many things are not so convenient, especially the high level of pressure on the executives. But when he came here, Lin Xiaoguang reported directly to Zhong Ming. At other times, he had the final say.

During this period of contact, Lin Xiaoguang also knew that Zhong Ming was a very thoughtful person, and he never treated his employees in a bad way. Coupled with making a game, exploding a game, the potential can be said to be infinite.

After all, making hardware in the gaming world is ultimately about looking at content.

Zhong Ming could see that Lin Xiaoguang was hesitating.

It's not that the conditions given by Zhong Ming are not good, but that Lin Xiaoguang has to change jobs and really has to do psychological construction for himself repeatedly.

Lin Xiaoguang is the management of Moya Technology. The actual annual income is at least 7 or 8 million. Moreover, this is still a relatively marginal department such as the handheld division.

The annual income may be more than 100,000 in basic monthly salary alone. Others include annual dividends, bonuses, subsidies, etc. Among them, the dividends are large, and it is easy to divide between four and five million a year.

What's more, the benefits of being a technology executive at Moya are not just economic. Life, social status, etc., Moya executives have some hidden benefits.

And jumping to Zhong Ming, the nature is entrepreneurship. For those who are seeking comfort, it is obviously very risky. Even if equity and dividends are given, most of them are just painting cakes. It is not necessary to really make the company. stand up.

"Mr. Zhong, your kindness is in my heart, but this matter is very important, and I still have to consider it." Lin Xiaoguang certainly couldn't agree so easily.

Zhong Ming smiled: "Mr. Lin, I know what you are hesitating. Why not? Do you like to bet against each other? Shall we make a personal bet? If you win, I will give you a guaranteed sales volume. For exclusive games of 500,000 or more, do n’t have exclusive expenses; if you lose, a salary of one yuan will come to me as the CEO of the subsidiary. Of course, the shares and dividends that should be given are a lot of yours. ”

Lin Xiaoguang said for a moment: "Then I'm quite profitable. What should I bet on?"

Zhong Ming said, "It's gonna be 2 million for the sales of the next game in Weiguang Studio."

Lin Xiaoguang thought about it: "2 million ... If you make a game that is relatively popular, the price is even cheaper, and 2 million is not impossible ..."

Zhong Ming added: "The horror game."

Lin Xiaoguang shook his head frantically: "Impossible, the horror game will definitely not sell for 2 million, I don't believe it."

"You don't believe it is necessary to bet on it." Zhong Ming smiled. "How about, bet on this. Will the sales of the next horror game of Weiguang Studio reach 2 million? If you can, you will get 1 yuan salary Come and be the CEO of a subsidiary. "

"What about the price?" Lin Xiaoguang asked.

Zhong Ming said earnestly: "No less than" Zodiac Guardian. "

"Not less than 150 yuan? OK, bet!"

Lin Xiaoguang agreed without saying a word.

Even a little calculation knows how difficult it is to reach this standard!

The price of 150 yuan ~ www.readwn.com ~ 2 million sales, then the flow of the game can be 300 million!

This sales volume is placed around the world. It is a proper top 3A masterpiece that can engage in IP development.

Not to mention a horror game?

Horror games are definitely not a popular game type in this world, and some players are naturally dismissed. If it is a more mainstream RPG game or FPS game, and sold 2 million copies on the console, then Lin Xiaoguang believes that horror games are really different.

In Lin Xiaoguang's eyes, this is basically an impossible goal.

If this kind of game can be done by saying something, then Lin Xiaoguang can only say that he is convinced, and even if Zhong Ming doesn't dig him, he will have to come and hug his thigh.

After all, in terms of temporary immediate benefits and long-term development prospects, Lin Xiaoguang is not stupid, of course, he did not hesitate to choose the latter.
