Time Travel: 2014
Chapter 251 The wind blows in Helsinki (2)
Mikami said in a roundabout way: “Isn’t the transaction cost of US$110 million for this acquisition too exaggerated?
Even at our current revenue level, it may take more than a quarter to raise $110 million.
Such behavior is likely to bring great risks to our normal business operations.
Super Cell has been a success under your management. In fact, I have not been with Super Cell for a long time.
But I also have feelings for Super Cell, and I cannot sit back and watch Super Cell face such risky behavior that may lead to failure. "
Pananin said: "Failure is a normal phenomenon, okay? You must know that the frequency of failure is much greater than success.
For a company as lucky as Supercell, the success rate is only one in ten.
If you haven't failed for a year, it means you haven't taken risks and you don't have much chance of success.
I really appreciate the saying of a certain racing driver: If you feel safe, you must not be driving fast enough. "
Paananin continued: “Does taking risk mean accepting failure?
I'm sorry I don't quite agree with your point of view, but taking risks means that we are developing rapidly.
It doesn't matter even if it really fails, Ms. Miku Mikami is from the financial industry.
It should be clear that the probability of failure is much higher than success.
We have not experienced any failure in Super Cell in the past year.
Doesn't this mean a kind of sadness in some way?
Without taking risks, there can be no big opportunities.
I do hope that in the future, we will experience more failures than successes.
If you are lucky enough, a success rate of about 1 in 10 is not bad. "
(PS: The above is not completely fabricated. Pananin has made similar remarks on many occasions, and has been appropriately artistically processed.)
Mikami Miku was completely speechless.
Sure enough, these people in the game industry are crazy.
But Mikami's career was doomed to the fact that she could not accept failure.
Looking at Pananin who was about to leave the office.
Mikami gave up the hypocritical pretense of etiquette and said urgently: "Mr. Pananin, according to your thinking, your current risky acquisition is an investment in the future. I'm sorry that I don't quite understand that it involves a casual game. How do your acquisitions relate to investing in future cars.
You'd better explain clearly. When it comes to the game "HILL CLIMB RACING", I have serious reasons to suspect that you are involved in an insider transaction.
Don't let me bring the matter to the board of directors. That would make everyone look bad. The reason why I am so serious is because I don't want any stain on my career. "
After hearing this, Pananin stopped.
insider trading? Even this crazy woman can imagine it.
But when things got to this point, Pananin had to explain.
Although according to the normal internal rules of the company, he does not need to explain.
But the accusation of "insider trading" is a serious crime.
In the European Union, those accused of insider trading may even face more than five years in prison.
Pananin said: "I can explain, but after I explain, you'd better apologize for your rude behavior.
And don't bother me with such trivial matters again. "
Mikami Miku said: "Okay, if your motives are really reasonable, I will apologize for my rudeness."
Pananin said: "First of all, have you played the game "HILL CLIMB RACING" developed by GRAY FOREST?"
Mikami Miku said: "Of course I have played it. You don't think that I would question it without even playing the game "HILL CLIMB RACING"? I still understand that without investigation, you have no right to speak."
As if he was afraid that Paananin would not believe it, Mikami also clicked on the game "HILL CLIMB RACING" in 5s and showed it to Paananin.
Pananin actually took Mikami Miku's cell phone and looked at it. Then Pananin shook his head and said:
"The game "HILL CLIMB RACING" on your mobile phone is the first-generation version.
No wonder you don’t understand the essence of this game developed by GRAY FOREST.
I suggest you try the latest version of the game "HILL CLIMB RACING".
Believe me, as long as you experience the latest version, you will easily understand why I value the value of HILL CLIMB RACING so much. "
Mikami searched in the Apple App Store and found that there is indeed a new version of the game "HILL CLIMB RACING".
But what does that mean? The game "HILL CLIMB RACING" has only been uploaded for a few days.
What is the difference between different versions of a casual game that are only a few days apart?
Mikami felt more and more that Pananin was playing tricks on himself.
However, in line with the attitude of asking for the bottom line, Mikami was still going to download the new version and try it out.
However, just as she was about to do so, Pananin handed over another 5s phone.
This phone seems to be designed specifically for gaming testing.
Pananin said to Mikami Miku: "Don't bother, it just so happens that this phone has the latest version of the game "HILL CLIMB RACING", and you have the old version on your phone.
You may wish to try playing both versions at the same time and carefully appreciate the differences between the two versions. "
Although it was not clear what Pananin was up to, Mikami was not unwilling to even try.
After about ten minutes of trial play.
Mikami felt that there seemed to be something different between the two versions of the game "HILL CLIMB RACING".
But Mikami Miku didn't know exactly what was different.
For a moment, Mikami Miku felt like he was being teased.
Mikami Miku felt that the reason why he felt different was most likely because Pananin's words hinted at the difference between the two versions.
Under this kind of psychological suggestion, there is a high probability that Mikami Miku will notice the difference even if there is no difference.
Mikami Miku said to Pananin: "It's just that some new paints and characters have been added to the game. It's not a big change, right?
I admit that this batch of paints is a bit more pleasing to the eye than the previous ones.
But that’s all. To be honest, these newly added paints are not even as stunning as those in the previous version when they first appeared.
If these changes alone make you think that this casual game is worth over $100 million, I beg to differ. "
Pananin sarcastically said: “This is what you discovered after playing with it for ten minutes?
Please forgive me, although your resume is quite impressive.
But if it weren’t for the financial support behind you, a vase like you wouldn’t be qualified to be an ordinary game experiencer.
Not to mention working in a game development company with an excellent past like Super Cell. "
