An Expert Is actually By My Side

Chapter 238 Time Waits for No One

The life cycle of mobile games is too short, and the Matthew effect in the industry is obvious. The products at the head are exhausted, and the products at the bottom and waist are so cold that the servers cannot be rented.

It stands to reason that Yunmeng Games has already won the daily activities and sales double champions of new mobile games released during the Spring Festival this year. There is no need to acquire those garbage companies that have been eliminated by the market.

To put it bluntly, what is the difference between this and charity?

However, Mr. Hao, who has always been wise, insisted on doing this this time.

Although he didn't think it was a good idea, the boss had already talked about it, so Lin Jun didn't say anything more. All he can do now is to carefully screen investment targets and try to reduce the company's losses.

The budget should be set at 50 million first.

Have independent development experience, and have operated and maintained SLG-type mobile games... The range of choices is too wide.

Which company should I buy?

Looking at the list of investment targets compiled by his assistant for him, Lin Jun also encountered difficulties for a while.

Profitable companies are definitely not available for purchase.

Companies that have been acquired or controlled by big factories such as rice and sea lions can also be directly excluded.

What he can do now is to search for gold in those companies that are not well managed or even make no money at all. How difficult it is cannot be explained clearly in one or two sentences.

But at this moment, Jun Lin suddenly remembered that there seemed to be a knowledgeable person in the office next door, so he pushed away the chair, stood up, and went out to the office next door.

Hearing the knock on the door, Li Zongzheng, who was staring at the ever-increasing daily activity data on the computer, casually said please come in, but when he saw that it was Lin Jun who entered the door, his brows frowned.

What are you doing here?

Ask you something, Lin Jun said with a smile, Do you understand the ecology of the game industry?

Li Zongzheng was taken aback for a moment, then said with a smile.

Are you here to find fault?

Don't talk nonsense, I'm asking you for advice seriously. Do you know any game companies that have more potential, but the recent operating conditions are not very good? We want those with independent research and development capabilities.

Originally, Li Zongzheng thought that this guy came to pretend to be aggressive with him because of the matter of love and the producer broke 50 million, but he didn't expect that he came to ask him for advice.

And when this question was asked, Li Zongzheng always felt that this guy was planning to do something again, and the expression on his face instantly became alert.

What do you want to do...

Lin Jun had a kind smile on his face.

Of course it's a merger and acquisition, what else can I do?

Fuck?

Again?

Hearing Lin Jun's explanation, the expression on Li Zongzheng's face was not relieved, but even more vigilant.

Unlike this dog, Li Zongzheng still cares about his reputation very much.

Although the rhythm brought up by Liu Qingfeng from Yuyou Island didn't have a substantial impact on Yunmeng's game, it had a considerable impact on him, and even now he still broods on it.

Especially for the shit stirrer of the game industry, he was angry and wronged.

The point of anger is that Liu Qingfeng is obviously talking nonsense. The point of grievance is that even if Yunmeng Group has done something worthless by taking 10,000 steps back, it is definitely not his fault.

For example, the recently popular Love and Producer was criticized by the players for being in the eyes of money, and the plot had to be entangled between liver and krypton. But in fact, this game has nothing to do with me at all, it's all caused by that bastard Lin Jun.

As for the Hero Killer released from him, no matter how you look at it, it is a creative and conscientious work. Although there are skins sold in the mall, it definitely does not affect the experience of non-RMB players.

Needless to say, Xuanyuan Sword is under development. Whether it is the gameplay, the game screen or the most critical plot part, he is 100% sure that he can leave a strong mark in the history of domestic stand-alone games.

Therefore, in his opinion, at least 80% of the reason why Yunmeng Game has received so much infamy is because of that bastard Lin Jun!

It has nothing to do with Yunmeng Games, this guy is the biggest shit-stirring stick in the game industry!

Thinking of this, Li Zongzheng also made up his mind that no matter what he said, he could not continue to toss in the field of games.

After some thinking, he had an idea in his mind.

Since this guy is going to do some mergers and acquisitions to expand Yunmeng Investment's territory in the game field, why don't you push him two street companies to buy bottoms.

By the time the lost pants are gone, even if Mr. Hao has no objection, he himself will be skeptical about investing in the game industry.

Although this idea can't be called very clever, but Li Zongzheng pondered it in his heart, and felt that it would be fine for an expert to bully an uninitiated layman, so he said with a smile.

Companies with potential? There are so many!

Hearing this sentence, Lin Jun's eyes lit up immediately, and he asked quickly.

for example?

Li Zongzheng said with a dry cough.

For example, Luohe Culture, which developed The Legend of Meng Xia, and Mo Fei Qingyu, who developed The Overlord of the Silk Road...their strength in the industry is considered good. Although the two new games released this time died suddenly Yes, but in my opinion, it is completely a non-war crime, after all, their opponent is us.

Crimes other than war?

hehe!

While speaking against his will, Li Zongzheng took a sip of tea and used a cup to hide the disdain between his brows.

After all, to be honest, he really didn't pay attention to these two companies.

It's just that he can't let Lin Jun know about this, otherwise, if he really runs to buy back those game companies that have potential but are not popular, his plan to drive him out of the game industry will be ruined up?

For example, The Artist's Town, which was released at the same time as Hero Kill, he felt that it could be regarded as a masterpiece with content, depth, and a little bit of philosophy after careful thinking.

Although there are not many people who play it, he believes that it is definitely not because the production team is not capable enough or the game is not good enough. It is purely that the players' appreciation level has not kept up.

If Lin Jun were to buy back these promising production teams, this guy would be inflated again!

So the two companies he recommended to Lin Jun were both assembly line mobile game manufacturers that he despised the most. This kind of game company has no dreams at all, and neither the flame of creativity nor the light can be seen from the games they make!

Does Mo Fei Qingyu still exist in Luohe culture? Lin Jun rubbed his chin and said, I'll go back and study it... By the way, do they have experience in developing SLG games?

SLG? Legend of Jianghu Mengxia and Silk Road Overlord are both SLG games... Li Zongzheng hesitated and said, Are you going to make SLG?

No, Lin Jun shook his head and said with a sigh, To be honest, I don't agree with the merger and acquisition of other game companies. After all, we are now a small leader in this field. It is better to stabilize the current market share than to expand. The market layout is more important...but this is the boss's idea. You go ahead and I'll ask you about this, thanks.

After speaking, Lin Jun turned and left the office.

Seeing the closed door, Li Zongzheng, who was sitting on the office chair, was stunned for a long time before he frowned and muttered something in a low voice.

The boss' idea?

……impossible.

Yunmeng Games is so strong now, there is absolutely no need to acquire other game companies?

Li Zongzheng thought about it all morning, but he couldn't figure out whether it was his job that made his boss feel dissatisfied, or whether it was because of other reasons that made his boss think of acquiring other game companies.

...It must be because the monthly flow of water can't go up!

If it cannot be converted into revenue, simple daily activities will not create direct revenue for the game, but will increase the operating cost of the server and lower the gross profit margin.

Thinking of this, he immediately called Du Ziteng to his office.

Did you plan the fanart illustration event a while ago?

Du Ziteng said with a hesitant expression.

What are you talking about? But recently, the Internet is still following our rhythm... Now that we are launching an event, it is difficult to attract big players to participate.

The circle of painters is not too far from the game circle, especially for many painters who often accept drafts from the game industry, most of the fans themselves are also players in the game circle.

Now the rhythm of the Yunmeng game continues wave after wave. Even if many people can see that there are behind-the-scenes black hands behind the scenes, but for those big touches who cherish feathers, this kind of participation is optional. Activities, most of them will carefully choose the latter, not to wading in this muddy water.

Those lesser-known painters might not care about it, but it is obvious that they cannot compare with those big touches in the industry in terms of ability or the number of fans they have.

Time waits for no one, I don't think we need to take those rhythms to heart... In this way, we can increase the intensity of event rewards.

Tapping his index finger on the desk for a while, Li Zongzheng thought for a while, then raised his head and continued.

...The works of the first prize and special prize of the event will be put on the game store in the form of skins. And the creators of the works, in addition to the bonus of 10,000 yuan, will also get a 10% share of the skin sales!

Upon hearing these words, Du Ziteng was slightly taken aback for a moment, and then his breathing became short of breath.

You, are you serious?

Of course, Li Zongzheng gave him a strange look, Is there any problem?

No... Du Ziteng replied excitedly, I'll do it now!

What is the concept of a 10% share of sales?

Now the best skin sold by Hero Kill, the sales volume has exceeded 200,000 pieces. Based on the unit price of 28 yuan, that is 5.6 million sales!

10% of 5.6 million is 560,000!

Considering those big touches with their own fans, fans themselves have a lot of purchasing power, maybe the sales of the final skins are far more than 200,000 pieces, and the sales of a single skin may exceed 10 million!

Such a generous reward is extremely rare in the entire history of Xia Kingdom games.

Du Ziteng dared to bet that as long as the operation method is proper and more efforts are made in the promotion, this event will definitely cause a sensation in the entire gaming circle!

To be able to plan such a grand event...

As an operator, how could he not be excited!
