Before the meeting, Jiang Yue reported good news to Zhang Shuo. Wujiang has not yet launched its A-round financing.
This is just great.
Zhang Shuo has made up his mind to shamelessly ask Wang Tao for investment at Saturday's award ceremony.
In the conference room.
Cao Yanhua, the general manager of Qingniao Interactive Entertainment, Zhao Mingchuan, the coo of Qinghe Technology, Wang Yan, the cto, Du Qingqing, the general manager of Qingcheng Retail, and Pei Weiping, the deputy general manager, are all there.
and Jiang Yue, administrative assistant of sprout holdings and general manager of sprout real estate.
Although Zhu Zhenghong is the deputy general manager of Germinal Real Estate, he is only a tool and is therefore not qualified to participate in the meeting.
Chen Xiaowan attended the meeting.
"When the 2 billion loan is received, how should it be spent to maximize the value of the funds and continue to develop and expand the enterprise. Today, I hope to get the answer from you."
Zhang Shuo got straight to the point.
All the senior executives are in high spirits and their waists are straight. They have huge liquidity of 2 billion, which is not a small number for any company.
It is a blessing to be able to witness it today.
In the past six months, under the leadership of Zhang Shuo, Germination Holdings has embarked on a miraculous development curve.
And obviously.
Next year, the miracle will continue!
"Let's start with Jade Bird Entertainment, Mr. Cao, you go first." Zhang Shuo ordered Cao Yanhua's general.
"Okay, Mr. Zhang!"
It has been half a month since Cao Yanhua took office, and he has already established a firm foothold. He said unhurriedly: "Next year, Jade Bird Interactive Entertainment will have three main tasks, namely game research and development, channel construction and middle-stage capacity building."
Be concise and concise.
“In terms of game research and development, in addition to maintaining the existing layout of the five major studios, we will also selectively acquire other small and medium-sized game studios, especially those with original IP, or those with particularly talented R&D personnel.
, continue to improve the company’s industrial layout in the field of game research and development.”
"good."
Hearing Cao Yanhua talk about this, Zhang Shuo thought of a game company where the original time and space super god emerged.
Mi Clam Tour.
He himself is a practitioner in the game industry, so he remembers it very clearly.
This company will be founded next year by three graduate students in Magic City. The company's start-up capital is only a 100,000-yuan "Eagle Plan" fund funded by the Student Entrepreneurship Foundation of the Shanghai Science and Technology Entrepreneurship Center.
It's so legendary.
Therefore, no matter what, Zhang Shuo will take Mihayou under his wing.
It’s not that he wants to covet games such as “Honkai” and “Genshin Impact”. If he really wants to covet them, he can just copy them and kill Mihayou in advance.
Instead, they value the talents of the three founders of Mihayou more.
That's what Jade Bird Interactive Entertainment needs most.
Cao Yanhua continued to report: "Channel construction focuses on promoting 71 Assistant. We will continue to increase marketing efforts and capacity building, and strive to develop 71 Assistant into the top three mobile distribution platforms in the domestic game field."
"It's not about being in the top three, it's about striving for first place."
Zhang Shuo promptly corrected Cao Yanhua's development goals.
If it is about distributing apps in all fields and categories, Zhang Shuo would not dare to boast about Haikou. But if it is limited to the distribution of mobile game apps, 71 Assistant obviously needs to set a higher goal.
It has both first-mover advantage and financial support.
And with the blessing of many popular mobile games under the name of Jade Bird Interactive Entertainment, there is no reason not to reach the top of the throne.
"In addition to game distribution, 71 Assistant can also try full category app distribution next year."
Zhang Shuo added.
"Then this movement is big." Cao Yanhua felt the pressure instantly, "If this is the case, it would be best to separate 71 Assistant and form a separate business unit to operate it."
"Yes, as long as you think it is necessary, I will support it."
Zhang Shuo only sets goals, and the specific implementation is still left to Cao Yanhua.
Aren’t bosses there to solve problems?
"OK."
Since they were in a meeting, Cao Yanhua couldn't say much, so he just went down and adjusted the plan on his own.
Then report to Zhang Shuo alone.
"In addition to the planned marketing center, user center, quality assurance center and project management center, the capacity building of the middle platform will also focus on research in basic fields. I propose that next year the company will build a game AI laboratory and an engine research institute to assist the work
Game development work in the room.”
"That's a good suggestion!"
Zhang Shuo smiled and applauded, "My attitude towards basic research and development is also very clear and I fully support it."
Cao Yanhua was very pleased that he could think of this.
He is worthy of being an industry leader.
If the three goals set by Cao Yanhua can be realized one by one, it will almost be equivalent to reshaping Jade Bird Interactive Entertainment from top to bottom, completing the transformation from a medium-sized company to a major game company.
"What about the budget? How much budget is needed?" Zhang Shuo asked with a smile.
"The investment budget for the acquisition of the game studio is 50 million, and the 71 Assistant marketing budget is 200 million. The capacity building and basic research of the center are mainly administrative expenses and are not included in the special budget. The special budget for the whole year is expected to be 250 million. In the initial stage, the holding company will allocate 50 million
As long as it reaches 100 million." Cao Yanhua obviously came prepared.
"Too little."
Zhang Shuo shook his head regretfully. He was so passionate about what he said earlier that he thought it would cost three to five billion.
Is this the result?
Cao Yanhua: "..."
He also wanted to open his mouth to the lion, but Jade Bird Interactive Entertainment itself was already making profits, and its own profits were enough to support the company's general expansion, so he was really embarrassed to open his mouth to the holding company again.
Wouldn't that make him, the general manager, very incompetent?
"Where is Qinghe Technology? Tell me about your plan." Zhang Shuo looked at Zhao Mingchuan expectantly.
"Ahem," Zhao Mingchuan picked up a piece of paper, "Qinghe Technology's expenses are mainly servers and marketing expenses. The servers have been assigned to the holding company, so only marketing expenses are left. Considering the competition from Miliao, Wei
We believe the full-year marketing budget is expected to be around 500 million."
"That's pretty much it."
Zhang Shuo finally heard about the big sum and asked, "Are there any other plans?"
"some."
Zhao Mingchuan nodded, "In the second half of next year, Weixin plans to launch the payment function, so there is another very important task next year, which is to establish a payment center and obtain an Internet financial payment license."
Next year it is expected that the authorities will focus on a batch of payment licenses, which is indeed the best time to end.
missed.
In the future, the goal can only be achieved indirectly by acquiring companies that have obtained payment licenses.
Not only is the cost higher, it also affects progress.
"We must pay close attention to the payment license. We can only succeed and not fail. It is best for Qinghe Technology to register a subsidiary now, pay the 100 million registration fee first, and then reach the threshold for applying for a payment license. During the process, there are also
If you need the holding company to coordinate, just ask." Zhang Shuo also attaches great importance to it.
"With Mr. Zhang's guarantee, I feel more confident." Zhao Mingchuan smiled.
"Don't just be confident. If you can't get the payment license next year, just resign and apologize."
This is tantamount to giving a fatal order.
"I....."
Zhao Mingchuan's smile suddenly froze.
Zhang Shuo didn't care about Zhao Mingchuan's pressure. Since he was in this position, he had to learn to bear the pressure. He turned to Wang Yan and asked with a smile: "What about research and development? What are Qinghe Technology's ambitions for next year?"
Regarding Wei Xin's thoughts, he had actually talked a lot with his senior brother.
I just hope that the research and development of Weixin will not go astray in the hands of Wang Yan. As long as we continue to follow the path of Weixin in the original time and space, and cross the river by feeling Tengda, everything will basically be fine.
Next year, Weixin's research and development tasks will only become more important.
"In addition to basic research and development and the planned Weixin function development, next year I plan to build a search laboratory and an intelligent algorithm research studio to strengthen research in basic fields." Wang Yan reported.
It's obviously very forward-looking.
Basic research is a "thankless" job. Often, after years of research, there may not be any results; or suddenly one day, breakthroughs and leap-forward developments may be achieved.
Therefore, it must be planned in advance.
"I don't object to this. The key is to find big names in related fields to join." Zhang Shuo reminded.
"I'm already in contact with the instructor."
"That's good."
Zhang Shuo suddenly laughed and decided not to interfere with the matter.
