"I heard you want to make an online game?"

However, within two days, Xu Jing got the news and called Meng Huo to inquire.

"Well, yes." Meng Huo wasn't surprised when he answered the phone, Xu Jing was very obsessed with any of his 'new moves', so he was a little slow in responding to this matter.

"What's the matter? Tell me, why did you suddenly have this idea." Xu Jing asked curiously, and Meng Huo then told him the general situation. Of course, he didn't say what the specific online game was.

And Xu Jing seems to be more interested in it than he imagined. In fact, the game industry is a very profitable industry. From the perspective of the profit-seeking nature of businessmen, if Meng Huo is really sure to make a successful online game, Xu Jing is also willing. support.

"Can't the funds be less?" The only thing that troubled him was the issue of funds. They could afford billions of funds, but the risk of investing such a huge amount of funds in game production was quite high--the money It is higher than their investment in animation production and promotion in the past year.

"Can't we form a game company by ourselves?"

Xu Jing felt that it was not a good idea to acquire others. A professional game company is quite expensive, but if you set up a company with 500 employees, no matter how much money you spend, you won’t need billions, or even 100 million.

If it was the investment of this number, he would definitely nod immediately - out of trust in Meng Huo, a risk of 100 million is nothing. But spend billions to acquire a company. That risk is too great.

"It is possible, but it will have to wait for a long time..." Meng Huo slowly explained to Xu Jing that they wanted a game company with 500 or more employees. The cost of support is also very high, and whether the new game can be successful is also a problem. Meng Huo does not have such confidence in the current game production department.

"When we set up a new company, the biggest problem is whether they can do a good job of this online game. He Qian and the others have no such experience before, and I can't focus on it. If it fails. How should we feed these people?"

Meng Huo explained that his main concern was that creating a new company was very risky. Companies can be created and people can be recruited, but whether this new company will meet his expectations-it's hard to say. It is impossible for Meng Huo to focus on "World of Warcraft", and he also plans to travel next year, so the game company must have the ability to operate alone.

In order to meet this requirement. Meng Huo still needs to observe for a while, which is what he is doing now. He didn't cut off He Qian's idea, but asked the game department to slowly produce and explore "World of Warcraft". In fact, this is a kind of assessment.

Meng Huo observed them for a long time,

It can be judged whether under their leadership, the establishment of a new game company can make "World of Warcraft". But it will take time, and the establishment of such a large game company is definitely not something that can be decided immediately.

And the acquisition of professional and well-established companies does not have this trouble. Those companies have experience and have works. The strength is obvious at a glance, and after the acquisition, Meng Huo is more sure of realizing his goal-but the problem is also that the purchase price is too high.

all in all. His best solution now is to put things in the future, unless Xu Jing really has the courage to agree to buy him with billions of Huaxia coins.

"..." Of course, with Xu Jing's cautious mind, it is naturally impossible for him to agree.

"Several billions are too much, and there are only a handful of online games with a revenue of more than one billion. If you just buy a game company for one game, then the loss outweighs the gain." Xu Jing sighed: "Since you have your own ideas , first observe whether it is feasible. Then see if it is necessary to expand-this idea is also correct."

If Meng Huo's ideas were followed, "World of Warcraft" would be released a few years later, but it would be very stable. Compared with the acquisition, the cost of funds would be very different. Xu Jing had no reason to object to his approach.

So this matter was put aside like this. Although Meng Huo had the idea to make "World of Warcraft", the time was not yet ripe. Whether he would officially decide to make it or not would have to wait for a long time.

He also handed over a text adventure game job to the game production department. The time was quite generous, enough for half of the people in the game production department to make a text adventure game and half of them to experiment with "World of Warcraft".

Afterwards, Meng Huo set off for Tokyo again, and he still had one very important matter to ask Sakura Company for advice—to change the next successor animation of "Mobile Suit Gundam 00"!

"What, isn't it "Detective Conan"?" Eiji Takashima was shocked when he heard this incident. According to Meng Huo's previous statement, and even in the internal discussions of Phoenix Company, the next part of "Mobile Suit Gundam 00" Animation should be the return of "Detective Conan".

"Detective Conan" has been over for a year. At the beginning, it was expected to come back in half a year, but it was evaded once in the middle. Why is it evading again now?

"Well, the plan is "Detective Conan", but now the situation has changed a little..." Meng Huo also looked quite embarrassed when talking about this matter. In fact, whether "Detective Conan" will return or not depends mainly on Phoenix. Can the company maintain its half-dominant position in animation?

Last year, Phoenix Company determined that "Detective Conan" could not be absent for a long time. After a long time, they would lose significantly to Zhongxia Company in animation ratings-but the follow-up form was different from what they thought. Even without "Detective Conan", They were not left behind either.

It is for this reason that "Mobile Suit Gundam 00" has been broadcast in two consecutive episodes. When everyone thought that "Detective Conan" had to return now, "Rebellious Lelouch" was encouraged by Alice. It's on fire again!

The frenzy brought about by "Rebellious Lelouch" has brought great confidence to the Phoenix Company, and the return of "Detective Conan" does not seem so urgent. And considering the reasons for the feature-length animation, Phoenix actually has some resistance to the return of "Detective Conan".

This is a super long animation, once it starts broadcasting, it is very difficult to stop, and it almost always occupies an animation department of Phoenix Company. As for He Xi, there are many comics that can be adapted into animations, and there are only a few animation departments. Therefore, many people think that there is no need to rush to produce "Detective Conan", but to make room for other short comics.

"Of course, since the return of "Detective Conan" has been decided in advance, we can't directly decide this matter." Meng Huo finally said: "The headquarters hopes that you and the artists here can decide whether to make a new movie or not. Animation still allows "Detective Conan" to return." (To be continued)
