After rebirth, I just want to win - Chapter 457
c456 Thirty years in Hedong, thirty years in Hexi
Xia Chuan looked really different after putting on a suit.
With his calm temperament and excellent appearance, he also has many fans online, and they are all female fans.
Pei Ying adjusted his collar.
Xia Chuan looked in the mirror and saw that it was not bad.
If this were a trainee of two and a half years, he would be able to recruit fans.
How many male celebrities in the entertainment industry do not have female fans?
Xia Chuan, the person in charge of Blizzard, took him seriously. He changed his clothes and chatted with Pei Ying for a while.
“I arranged for someone to come over from the secretary’s side. You have met a female classmate of mine.”
“Well, I know who it is.”
Mr. Xia has a good relationship with his female classmates. She has been responsible for taking him there several times when he came to the company. The one named Jiang is more serious in his work.
“When the time comes, you will be responsible for leading the area.”
“OK.”
Pei Ying nodded slightly.
Xia Chuan has also made arrangements for Wang Yiyong and others. During the winter vacation, they will first go to Kuaishou to run offline. The weather is not hot and running will warm up.
The training is almost done, and we will consider asking them to go to the Imperial Capital to help next year.
Pei Ying looked at the time.
“Mr. Xia, it’s almost time.”
Xia Chuan glanced at her wrist: “Secretary Pei, get a watch. There will be some occasions in the future where it is not appropriate to use a mobile phone, so this will be your year-end bonus this year.”
“Thank you, Mr. Xia!”
Pei Ying is not being pretentious. There are situations where it is not appropriate to use a mobile phone.
Xia Chuan suggested: “The blue balloon is good.”
This one looks youthful and is not expensive, which is just right for Pei Ying.
Blue balloon?
If I remember correctly, it seemed to be a Cartier model, and Pei Ying kept it in mind.
“Let’s go.”
Xia Chuan checked his accounts, and over time he almost became an accountant.
To be honest, if Cheng Yixiao came to the company as an accountant, he would probably have a headache.
I left the company in a Maybach 62s. Generally, this car does not go out and basically only picks up distinguished guests.
At around two o’clock, the plane from the imperial capital to Jinling landed smoothly.
“Mr.
As soon as Mike got off the plane, he got on the Maybach.
The other person has curly hair, not long hair, a clean face, and gives off a calm and reliable feeling.
After seeing Xia Chuan’s young face, even though Mike was mentally prepared, he was a little surprised: “You are much younger than I thought.”
“I have been looking forward to this meeting for a long time, because I am also a fan and player of Warcraft.”
“Then we should have a lot to talk about.”
After leaving the airport, Mike was curious about the buildings outside the window, so Xia Chuan introduced them.
“I first went to the Imperial Capital, and then came here. I found that the development here is very fast, which is completely different from my stereotype.”
“Still developing…”
Xia Chuan smiled and said nothing. To foreign countries, China seems to be very backward. This is the stereotype.
Mike smiled and said: “The planning is very beautiful, just organized.”
“The future will be better, just like us.”
Back to business.
Xia Chuan said seriously: “I acquired the development copyright of Warcraft. Of course, I will also give some discounts on the IP of the game, which will be cheaper than Sega.”
Mike was so funny that they thought Sega was stupid and completely ripped off.
At least Blizzard will not spend 6.8 billion yuan to acquire a vassal game IP. Currently, there are only two parkour games recognized in the world.
One is temple escape,
The other one is Tiantian Parkour,
The key is that these two models are for little monsters.
Even if you get it, it will probably be a big loss. Little Monster can’t sell such a hot-selling game. Wouldn’t this cut off his own financial path?
Therefore, the one sold to Sega did not create much value.
Of course, if Sega simply wants to rely on one game layout, it is not impossible, with luck.
But in their opinion, the Sega game consoles in their early days were doing well.
In other aspects…
hehe.
Even if it is to enter mobile games, it is not rational to buy a game IP with low potential at this price.
However, it is true that there is money.
Of course, it cannot be denied that little monster games have a very large market all over the world.
If it was a temple escape, he felt that the price of 100 was not too much, and it was too low. Given its influence, he also felt that there was a lot of value in Angry Birds, which had become very popular in the past six months.
“Of course there is no problem with the development copyright of Warcraft. This is our sincerity.”
Mike pulled out a document.
Xia Chuan took it and took a look, squinting his eyes. Blizzard’s appetite was much greater than Sega’s.
But yes, one is a father and the other is a son.
Isn’t the United States the stepfather of the boy’s life? This seems normal. The United States also has an illegitimate son, the Country of Sticks, where several big companies are now spending money on mobile games, trying to make some splash.
“The IP of up to three games. You also know that although the Little Monster team is getting bigger and bigger, its research and development capabilities have not improved much. Currently, it has developed two works in the market that have received a lot of response in half a year. .”
Xia Chuan is also quite helpless. Popular games are limited.
Even the team capacity for moving a company is limited, and it takes time to move out.
Hearing this, the muscles on Mike’s face twitched unnaturally twice.
Half a year, two models?
Your little monster is a sow. Can it give birth?
Mike squinted his eyes, feeling that it was a bit too exaggerated.
Which company in the world can guarantee to produce two popular games within half a year?
Before coming here, he had always heard that the companies here had good treatment and high salaries, but after coming here, he found that it was a little different.
On the plane, he also chatted with a local from Jinling. It was said that the salary was very low.
With just this salary, are you still squeezing employees so crazily?
It is said that some people have to stay at their posts for more than ten hours.
If he were Xia Chuan, it would be enough for him to have a hit product within half a year, and he would have fun just like that.
But what about the other party, who looks very disappointed?
Now, he has taken a great interest in the research and development department of Little Monster.
Mike complained in his heart, but smiled politely on the surface: “Of course, Fruit Master, Parkour, and Jets, Xia, you can’t let me go all the way in vain.”
“certainly.”
Since the other party did not make excessive demands, Xia Chuan would not refuse.
The other party’s intention was very obvious, either come over for shopping, or pack up three of them and take them away, negotiate the price and get them in the car.
These three games are currently very popular and are almost profitable.
Even if he extends the life cycle, it won’t last too long. The lifespan of mobile games is only a few years, and he can’t lose much by cashing out in advance.
Of course, Blizzard can also make money. How much money they can make is up to them.
Back at the company, many reporters have been crowded into the huge space in the internal courtyard.
Mike turned a blind eye to the camera and the flash, and had long been used to it: “Mr. Xia, I hope to visit the little monster.”
“Of course, which department is Mr. Mike interested in?”
“R&D department, I have long heard that Little Monster’s R&D and design department is the best in the world…”
Mike said with a smile.
This is not groundless. It was published in International Weekly. The fact that Little Monster can achieve today’s achievements as one of the largest game companies in the world is inseparable from the current R&D department.
The corners of Xia Chuan’s mouth raised, with an intriguing expression in his eyes.
He did interfere in order to deceive others and planted some seeds. Unexpectedly, his own R&D department became the best in the world.
That’s fine.
Those who do not hesitate to spend huge sums of money to poach corners should cry when the time comes.
Tenda poached several members of the R&D team at Little Monster, but now there is no news.
“This is the little monster’s kitchen, with a dedicated chef…”
It’s actually similar to school, except it’s a bit more upscale and the chefs are better.
Of course, it’s not absolute. It depends on which school you compare with. Of course, it’s incomparable with aristocratic schools. The scholarship for other students is 300,000 yuan a year. If you can get a scholarship of 300,000 yuan, how high is the tuition? How high is the threshold?
“This is the art department, Duan Yutong, come here.”
Xia Chuan shouted.
Team leader Duan Yutong smiled, stood up and walked over cautiously, then showed a suspicious look: “Mr. Xia?”
“This is a top student who graduated from the Royal Academy of Fine Arts in Melbourne. This is the CEO of Blizzard, President Mike.”
“Hello, President!”
Duan Yutong’s heart beat like a drum, and she didn’t understand what Xia Chuan was introducing her to.
In fact, after she came to Little Monster, her treatment was pretty good. It was expected that Nu Liang would be promoted to manager soon, but there was just a slight gap. But once she was promoted to manager, it would definitely be easier than in Shanghai and it would be closer to home.
The key is, the benefits here are good.
It is said that a team building will be organized soon to go to Changbai Mountain.
“Hello, the Royal Melbourne Academy of Art is very famous…”
“Thanks.”
Mike was a little surprised. Did the little monsters absorb all these elites?
As we walked, we finally came to the R&D department.
At this time, the R&D department was very serious, and Green was discussing design issues with Zheng Chenghua.
The two of them spoke Chinese. Green signed up for a cram school after coming to Little Monster, and his speaking ability is stumbling at the moment.
Other R&D personnel typed the code meticulously.
“What are they talking about?”
Mike asked curiously.
Xia Chuan reminded: “They are talking about whether the box contains RPG or Gatling.”
“?”
Mike looked confused.
Xia Chuan explained: “Currently this is Little Monster’s key research and development project, a sandbox gunfight game, which is still in the initial development stage.”
“Killing Island?”
“good……”
Xia Chuan gave a brief introduction without revealing too much, and then shouted: “Green.”
“Mr. Xia.”
Green raised his head and was a little surprised when he saw Mike, a big shot who once appeared in an international weekly magazine; as a former Sony designer, Mike was someone he needed to look up to.
Xia Chuan introduced: “This is Green, the chief creative and design director of Little Monster.”
“Hello, I’m Mike. I’ve heard about you. It’s said that you used to work at Sony. Why did you come all the way here?”
Mike was surprised.
At that time, he had seen in the domestic news that being the chief creative design director of Little Monster was definitely not an ordinary role. However, he checked the other party’s information and found that he did not agree with it. There were no outstanding works, and those MODs were not It’s a bit confusing.
So, he was curious.
Green shook hands with the other party: “Because Mr. Xia sent me an email, my dream can be fulfilled here, and I can make my own games. This is a condition that Sony cannot provide me.”
“Oh, I wish you can realize your dream soon.”
Mike said with a smile, but unfortunately he was not interested in the other person’s dream.
A Sony game designer, talking about dreams?
Are you talking about making your own game?
why?
Even Blizzard’s chief design director wouldn’t dare say such a thing.
Xia Chuan could see Mike’s disdain and really wanted to say for Green, “Thirty years to the east of Hedong, thirty years to the west of Hexi”!
The little monsters made him feel refreshing and interesting, but he would not be able to figure out the point for a while.
Greenpi smiled, because he heard a hint of contempt in the other person’s tone. It was indeed ridiculous. How could he, an unpopular game designer, develop an amazing game? People seem to be unable to understand illogical thoughts.
But, he is needed here.
He looked at Killing Island and introduced: “President Mike, next year, this time next year, I hope you can experience this sandbox game.”
“I am looking forward.”
Mike jumped over Green and communicated with Zheng Chenghua for a while.
Zheng Chenghua is an old man. He knew what the other party meant when he took the business card. Damn it, is this a test of his willpower?
If a few foreign girls were brought here, he might not be able to withstand it.
After visiting the company, in the office.
Pei Ying made two cups of tea and then left.
In fact, Little Monster has a special negotiation team that specializes in talking about these things, but the relationship is not equal.
Xia Chuan held tea and chatted with Mike for a long time. The other party was more difficult to deal with than Sega, and they were very aggressive on price.
But he needs the development rights of Warcraft.
Because the game Hearthstone can bring him more value.
The final price was negotiated at 12.8 billion for three game IPs. Currently, Little Monster is not conspicuous, and Little Monster is not willing to sell it if it is conspicuous.
It didn’t take long, it was written in black and white on the contract.
“Xia, happy cooperation.”
“A pleasure to work with.”
Xia Chuan also showed a heartfelt smile. This time he killed two birds with one stone. He sold off part of the copyright, but the development rights of Warcraft were also included.
The old will not go, and the new will not come.
“I wish Blizzard’s game sales will be great.”
“So are the little monsters.”
“There will be a press conference next, and I need you to attend it with me. I have arranged a dinner and accommodation afterwards. If you want to have some fun, I will ask our R&D director to take you to some more relaxing places.”
Mike’s eyes lit up when he heard this, and he originally wanted to refuse to go back to rest, but after hearing about the R&D director, he immediately became interested, so he immediately agreed.
At the press conference, Xia Chuan stood in position C.
Regarding the flash, Xia Chuan was calm and composed, announcing the cooperation with Blizzard and the sale of IP.
“Mr. Xia, why are you so eager to sell the game IP? Is it because of the game life cycle?”
“Mr. Xia, this time you…”
“Mr. Xia, is it true that your relationship with Miss Li is true?”
Xia Chuan looked at the other person: “The next one.”
