An Expert Is actually By My Side

Chapter 115 If you want to blame, blame your company for being too charming (34)

It was not only Zhou Xuan who had similar thoughts, but also Wang Dalong who was far away in Pengcheng.

However, as the manager of the WeChat department of Sea Lion Group and an Internet practitioner with many years of experience, his views are far deeper than Zhou Xuan's.

The small games in this kind of communication tool are sometimes like a communication tool without language, which can make the avatars sleeping in your communication list suddenly appear in front of you as if they came alive.

This interactivity is far greater than that of a friend who swipe a finger in the circle of friends and skips it in a hurry or likes it.

Is the game really fun?

Might not be fun!

But it allows you to see my name in the rankings, and it allows us who don't have much intersection in life to have a common language...even if it's just the beginning of a topic.

"It's really wonderful... this idea."

Looking at the game on the screen with great interest, Wang Dalong was full of praise.

If it weren't for the fact that the mini program is mainly an open user platform, he couldn't help but want the programmers under him to follow this design idea and recreate a similar game and implant it into the additional functions of WeChat.

but……

Doesn't seem to be necessary?

As an open platform, they should take a long-term view and not be as short-sighted as the game development teams in the group. Rather than holding onto one or two ideas that are expected to become popular models, it is better to concentrate on the platform itself and provide an environment for companies or individual users to incubate ideas.

As long as the platform is well established, they don't even need to do anything, and naturally there will be a steady stream of explosive products emerging in this garden.

Thinking of this, a smile appeared on Wang Dalong's face.

"Since it's already on fire, let's give him another fire!"

Just when Wang Dalong was contemplating how to arrange a marketing plan to add fire to the popularity of this software and attract a large number of companies to enter the small program platform, Xu Qianshi, who was far away in Shanghai, also noticed This small game suddenly appeared in the circle of friends.

"It's Yunmeng again?"

Looking at the report submitted by his subordinates, his face looked like he had seen a ghost.

It is also strange to say.

This game has actually been uploaded for a month, but it has been tepid on the small program platform, and there has been no major improvement, so that he has only now noticed that the game he is following has genius-like creativity. The game company has released another impressive "masterpiece".

However, this is also within reason.

After all, it hasn’t been long since WeChat’s mini-program function was launched, and most WeChat users are not used to this redundant function for social software.

However, it is precisely because of this that this little game suddenly became popular in the circle of friends, which is even more confusing.

"I don't think this game is very fun."

Hearing Mr. Xu's complaints, the secretary standing at the desk said.

"To be honest, I don't really understand the reason why this game became so popular... To be honest, I even have a feeling that this game seems to have suddenly appeared in the circle of friends. However, regardless of the reason why it became so popular Regardless, it is indeed a brilliant idea to release this game on a social platform instead of choosing a paid platform.”

"How to say?" Xu Qianshi said casually.

"Because it's worthless at all!" the secretary continued, "Even for a game like 2048, people are not very willing to pay for it. When the mobile version we made was released on the rice APP market, The sales of the PC version on the e-game platform quickly entered a bottleneck period, so that Yunmeng Games had to quickly launch the Escape from the Temple project to balance the cross-platform impact of the mobile version on the PC version.”

Xu Qianshi nodded: "It's really a flaw of this game that it can't be sold at a very high price. The most psychological price I can accept is two yuan, and I feel a loss if I add one yuan...so they chose Put it on a free platform?"

"The key is a free 'social' platform." The secretary continued to bite the word 'social' very strongly, "the operation threshold is low, the game method is simple, easy to learn, plus the leaderboard system and circle of friends function The perfect combination, this game is tailor-made for social software... Mr. Xu, just imagine, if you add a new beauty's WeChat—”

"Cough," Xu Qianshi coughed lightly, "I have a family."

"Uh, I know, what I mean is that its most important role is to create conversations between strangers," the secretary said with an embarrassed expression, and quickly changed the way he continued, "For example, there are strangers between us. , you don’t know whether I like watching movies or watching stage plays, but if there is a tool that can quickly create topics in your circle of friends, as long as both parties have a certain interest in each other, you can quickly find The entry point of the topic."

"It's true what you said. In fact, I also feel it. This is not like a game, but like an auxiliary function of social software." Xu Qianshi nodded thoughtfully.

"Incisive! That's probably the reason." The secretary immediately gave a thumbs up and flattered her with a smile.

Not taking the secretary's flattery to heart, Xu Qianshi leaned back on the office chair, and after a long time of contemplation, he let out a heartfelt sigh.

"In any case, the WeChat department of Sea Lion Group should have noticed this game."

There is no reason why this kind of game with the potential to become a big hit should not be the focus of publicity.

Although Yunmeng Games does not seem to be particularly good at publicizing, Sea Lion Group is a veteran in this field.

In particular, their WeChat department is struggling with how to promote the functions of the mini program and prove the monetization value of WeChat users to the majority of enterprises. This is all the more reason to make this game a model and promote it to its own users.

At that time, it might be possible to use the popularity of the game to attract a large number of companies to settle in the mini program.

This incident has no impact on Rice Group and Rice Entertainment for the time being. What really makes Xu Qianshi envious is not that this popular game did not appear on his own platform, but Yunmeng Games' ability to create blockbuster products one after another. .

It is a waste of social resources for such an awesome company not to be included in its own camp!

"Hey! I really want it."

Xu Qianshi sighed, and suddenly looked at his secretary.

"You said it would be great if we bought Yunmeng Group directly with 200 million yuan."

"Mr. Xu...you are joking, the board of directors would never agree to such a nonsense acquisition." The secretary said with a wry smile.

200 million to acquire a start-up?

Well, even if they did build a mobile game with a monthly turnover of 20 to 30 million, such as Temple Run, and relax other conditions, they can indeed get a valuation of 200 to 400 million, and no one will approve it. Hu Lai's acquisition.

At most, the board of directors can accept financing with a VAM agreement.

Xu Qianshi smiled lightly, but didn't explain anything.

It was originally a joke, but he knew in his heart that it was absolutely impossible for the board of directors to approve such an acquisition plan.

It's just that, one yard counts for one yard, and his psychological expectation for Yunmeng Group is worth at least 500 million yuan. If he can really buy the other party with 200 million yuan, and he has the ability to convince the board of directors, he feels that he will probably make a move without hesitation.

Just like he bought "Electric Fun".

The development of Rice Empire in terms of hardware has reached a bottleneck. Only when both software and hardware go hand in hand can it be possible to create greater miracles in this industry.

"Actually... Mr. Xu."

"What's wrong?"

"If you are interested in Yunmeng Group, I have an idea." The secretary said after hesitating for a moment.

"What method? Let's hear it." Xu Qianshi raised his eyebrows with interest, looked away from the document in his hand, and asked his secretary.

"I have investigated before. Although the three subsidiaries of Yunmeng Group are financially independent, their management is very...very casual, and even a bit chaotic in my opinion. For example, Yunmeng Media and Tianyuan Films have jointly invested For a movie, Yunmeng Investment bought another loss-making farm, so that they had a good profitability, but they were heavily in debt..."

"You mean, their cash flow is very unhealthy?" Xu Qianshi had a shrewd look in his eyes.

"That's right," the secretary nodded, "Although they have three branches, only one is making a profit. We just need to find a way to dig out the core employees of this subsidiary and put the normal operation of Yunmeng Games in trouble. You will soon be crushed to death by your own debt ratio and two big holes for burning money... When you send out an acquisition offer, I think it will not be very difficult to repay the debt."

Huh?

Interesting idea.

And the most important thing is that there is no risk. He really wants the core employees of Yunmeng Group...Although what he wants most is Mr. Hao himself.

Thinking of this, a hint of interest suddenly appeared on Xu Qianshi's face.

After pondering for a long time, he asked his secretary to call Wu Jianhua from the marketing department to his office and gave him a task.

"I heard that Yunmeng Group is preparing for an autumn job fair. I plan to arrange for people from the HR department to go to Jiangcheng for a while, and you will also pick a reliable person to help out. I will trouble him to go on a business trip then. Work with the HR department."

Wu Jianhua was taken aback for a moment, and didn't ask what kind of job it was. He only heard that he was on a business trip because of a job fair. He thought it might be some kind of thankless job, so he nodded immediately.

"Alright Mr. Xu! I'll make arrangements now!"

Seeing Wu Jianhua's back turning and leaving the office, Xu Qianshi's mouth curled into a smile.

Brother Hao, don't blame me for being unkind.

If you want to blame, blame your company for being too charming!

As long as the hoe is swung well, there is no wall root that cannot be dug down, Xu Qianshi is not at all worried that this plan may fail. After all, in the face of Rice Group's offer and generous price tag, how much is loyalty worth?

He believes that no executive of any start-up company can resist such a temptation...
