After Lin Chen learned that his business had been cut off, Tang Xin and everyone from the original venture capital department, which was now being reorganized into a venture capital company, were called into his office.
Like Lin Chen, Tang Xin and others also heard about Net One.
Seeing Lin Chen's cold face, Tang Xin said: "Lin Chen, don't be angry. If Net One is bad, then it will be bad. We can find another company!"
Liu Xing also nodded and said: "That's right, Director Lin, at worst we can set up our own company. As long as we have money, what's not to say?"
After hearing this, Lin Chen's eyes lit up and a smile appeared on his face.
"What Liu Xing said is right, it's just a game company. If others don't sell it, we will set it up ourselves."
Lin Chen smiled: "However, this Ding Lin is really shameless. He can change his mind even if he says that the business is good. This tone must not let him just let it go."
If someone respects me, I will give him back a foot. If someone bullies me, I will pay him back ten times!
Lin Chen decided to teach Ding Lin his philosophy of life.
Tang Xin knew Lin Chen's temper, so he asked, "Lin Chen, are you planning to do something to Wangyi?"
"That's right." Lin Chen chuckled: "Ding Lin is not honest, so don't blame us for being unjust. Since he refuses to sell Net One to us, then we can just take it ourselves."
"Take it yourself? Director Lin, do you want to buy it by force?" Liu Xing asked.
"Of course not. Now NetOne and Penguin have joined forces. Their stock prices are going up. What's the difference between forcing a purchase now and giving money away?" Lin Chen touched his chin, his eyes showing a hint of slyness.
Everyone was a little confused and didn't know what Lin Chen meant.
Lin Chen then smiled and said, "Do you know what a game company's most important asset is?"
"The most important asset of a gaming company?"
Everyone thought for a while and then said: "IP?"
"copyright?"
"game?"
"technology?"
Lin Chen shook his head at these answers: "Those are very important, but I think the most important asset of a game company is its people!"
"Just like Ding Lin's NetOne. When NetOne games first emerged, did they rely on IP? On technology? On copyright? None! Without those technical staff and planners of NetOne, NetOne would have
Nothing!"
Tang Xin understood: "Lin Chen, are you planning to poach people?"
"That's right, we just want to poach people! The task I want to give you today is to poach all the people from the game department of NetOne! What is their current salary? We will directly double it! If it is doubled
It’s useless to double it, then double it again! If you can’t double it, then triple it. In short, empty out the game department of NetOne!”
After a pause, Lin Chen looked at Tang Xin: "Tang Xin, you don't have to go poaching people. You can arrange the office address of the new game company in the next few days. You have also seen the situation on the Internet. It is roughly necessary.
You know how much office space there is, and I only have one request, which is to get the new people to start working as soon as possible."
"I don't believe it anymore. If Ding Lin doesn't sell it, we can't do anything about it. Doesn't Ding Yi not sell Net One? Let's just hollow out Net One and build our own Net One!"
Soon, there was a high-end coffee shop in southern Zhejiang.
Liu Xing sat in the coffee shop with a calm expression.
Although he had been waiting for more than an hour, he was not in a hurry.
I drank coffee slowly and admired the scenery outside the window. Outside, I saw the famous West Lake in southern Zhejiang.
I don’t know how long it took, but suddenly, a man wearing sunglasses, a mask, and a T-shirt walked up to Liu Xing in a hurry.
He looked around like a street spy before asking Liu Xing.
"Is it Mr. Liu?"
"That's right." Liu Xing said with a smile, "You are from Net One..."
"Yes, it's me!" Before Liu Xing could finish speaking, the other party immediately interrupted him and sat down.
Then, the other party took off his sunglasses and mask, revealing his true face.
Liu Xing smiled and realized that the other person was indeed the person he had made an appointment with.
Shang Shu, the person in charge of Net One’s Fenghuo Studio.
Different from ordinary game companies, Net One Games implements a studio system. Each studio represents a game department, which has programming, art, planning, and all positions, just like a small game company.
The advantage of this is that internal communication within the studio is smooth and the development work is very efficient. However, it also has a disadvantage for Net One, which is that once the head of the studio leaves, the entire studio may follow suit.
A similar thing happened in the past. After the boss of a certain studio resigned, 19 of the 20 people in the entire studio left.
But this time, Liu Xing and the others planned to replicate the same thing.
"Mr. Shang, it's not easy to meet you." Liu Xing said with a smile.
"Sorry." Shang Shu said a little cautiously: "It took me a while to sneak out during working hours."
"What kind of coffee can I order for you?"
"No need." Shang Shu waved his hand: "I came here this time just to know, Mr. Liu, is everything you told me on the phone true?"
"Of course, Mr. Shang, I have already investigated. Your current annual salary is about 1 million, plus bonus share. If you come to our place, we will give you an annual salary of 5 million, plus the income from the games you produce in the future.
Share it! In Donghai. In addition, if you can bring the colleagues of Fenghuo Studio together, we will also provide you with a house with three bedrooms and one living room."
Hearing the conditions offered by Liu Xing, Shang Shu couldn't help but take a deep breath.
Not to mention things like a million-dollar annual salary and a house, game revenue sharing is a treatment that almost every game producer dreams of.
You know, in the past, employees in game companies were paid dead wages, and no matter whether the game was good or bad, it had nothing to do with their income.
Only some super popular companies may give their employees some compensation in the form of year-end bonuses after the game becomes popular. But these compensations are nothing compared to the income they create.
Therefore, this condition is simply the best treatment among game companies that Shang Shu has ever seen.
But compared to these, Shang Shu is more concerned about one question: "That's not what I'm talking about. I want to ask, Manager Liu, you said on the phone that if I come to your place, I can have all the rights to make the game? Including the game's
Can I also determine the charging point? No other departments will intervene?"
"Yes. Mr. Shang, I heard that this condition was the idea that our Director Lin came up with after meeting you. When he visited Net One that day, he heard that he encountered you arguing with people from the operations department, so this time
Before we came, Director Lin specifically put this into the conditions."
