Investment Life

Chapter 51:

one million! Renamed! !! !! Mike almost didn't drop the computer in his arms. how is this possible? They just ate a meal just now, why did they suddenly pop up such a heroic investor, what Chinese magic is this? !!

Jonathan, who was standing aside, was obviously surprised, and asked a little bit uncertainly, "Mr. Chen, they seem to have just come in."

"I had a light meal with these two gentlemen before, and what they said was really attractive. In order to live up to these‘ wisdom eyes ’, I plan to give it a try.”

"But ..." Ellen behind him finally spit out a sentence, "... but you haven't even played our game, I mean, it ... it's really good, we can definitely sell it Drop ... "

Mike's jaw almost hit the ground. At this moment, he couldn't decide who was crazy. In front of this little Chinese boy, he still chose such a stupid partner!

"Okay, don't you bring your computer and play together?" Chen Yuanming responded happily, even eager to try.

After embarrassingly standing there for a long time, Mike finally gritted his teeth, ran to find a socket, and started his baby computer. Around that small screen, the Viking warriors began their own adventure. This little thing has all the classic elements of the red and white machine of the year. It is a bit like the Nordic version of Super Mario. The difficulty of the level posted some reviews. As time went on, the atmosphere between the three became more heated.

Standing behind the three young men, Mr. Jonathan was deeply helpless. A few days ago, he was still amazed by the old spice of the Chinese teenager and attracted by his unique investment techniques. However, only a few days later, the child yelled at the game like the two little ghosts and played. Happy. Is he looking up at this kid, or is he thinking about simple things too complicated?

There are two original creators, and the game time is short after all. After clearing the level, Chen Yuanming leaned back on his back with a smile, "It's really an interesting game."

At this time, the two game lunatics also came to their senses, as if they were not the same as the "show" planned! Turning off the computer stiffly, Mike turned around and asked uncertainly, "Do you really want to invest in us? A million?"

Chen Yuanming nodded, "Yeah, I think it will be a good game, naturally dare to pay this money, but do you dare to ask for it?"

The words seemed to poke into the heart, and the two young men fell into silence. This kind of pie drop in the sky, they are really a little panicked. Although the venture capital is basically pie drop in the sky, but some people have paid a terrible price for it.

After hesitating for a while, Allen finally spoke first. "I think we should look at the contract first. You have invested so much. What do you want to get from us? Let's say first. Our interest is only in making games. The best and most perfect game, not a lavish listing or media promotion. We want to build our brand with strength and unparalleled charm. Money is a good thing, but it is not the most important thing. "

Standing behind Jonathan's mouth, he almost uttered no words. This was the first time he had heard such a speech at a venture capital company.

But Chen Yuanming didn't mean to laugh at him, but nodded seriously, "Ethics in any industry is more important than making money. It determines the height a company may stand on, and this achievement is not measured by money. In my opinion, games are not only a means of making money, but also a culture that can change the popular culture of this era. "

"What about the money?" Mike asked back, at this time his expression looked very serious, even the little curly hair on his head was a little serious. "Ideal can support a lot of things, but not money without it. What if we can't bring you enough income?"

Chen Yuanming laughed, "It's your business to make games, and it's mine to make money. It's enough to do what I do. I'm rich now, more than anyone in this room. With money, I will have more wealth in the future, but these are not all. It is the key to spend them where I feel worthwhile. "

"I believe you can make great games. Do you believe I can support your company until it becomes brilliant?"

This sentence made both of them uneasy, did they never imagine that they have money-for example, winning 5 million lotteries or something-what will happen? With money, they can do so much without worrying about tomorrow's meals, and without having to worry about hiring excellent production staff. After two years of hard work, they really understood that bread and love are indispensable. But giving your company to a stranger and trusting everything he says is scary enough. One million is not a small number, what do they need to pay for it ...

Seems to understand where the two are tangled, Chen Yuanming smiled, "Of course, this money is not for you to splurge. I will hire a professional to join your team to supervise the use of this money and ensure that it is fully used In game development. At the same time, I will also own 35% of the company ’s shares, not purely listed preferred shares, but enter management as a shareholder. I will not interfere with your game development, but in terms of distribution and major personnel issues, To retain some voting rights. This will be a loose and limited cooperation, and I look forward to seeing this money get a superior return, not just money, but the birth of a world-class game masterpiece. "

Whether this remark can move others is unknown, but it did move Allen and Mike. They exchanged a look, and the pair of friends saw the same determination in each other's eyes. Scratching the floppy disk on the table, Mike scratched his brown curly hair. "To be honest, this is the most expensive floppy disk I've ever sold."

Chen Yuanming laughed, "Is it? I thought it was a bonus. But in the beginning, the bad name must be changed, we need a new and more powerful company name ..."

Looking at the three people in front of each other so easily, such a big deal, Mr. Jonathan simply did not know what to think. However, he did not persuade the young kid who joined the venture capital industry again because what he did was in line with the most fundamental element of angel investors-writing checks to projects that he was very optimistic about and that the other party really needed. Although it may seem sloppy, the eyes of these three young people contain a kind of enthusiasm that makes him a little excited. Perhaps Chen Yuanming really did not make the wrong choice, but his standards are completely different from those of the old-school Silicon Valley elites.

With the cooperation agreement, the rest is easy to handle. In just a few days, Chen Yuanming contacted Yongan Accounting Firm and hired an auditor to be responsible for the auditing and financial consulting of silicon and nerve keys. After repeatedly guaranteeing that they would come up with a reliable new name as soon as possible, the two young ceo embarked on the road to return home. In addition to their countless enthusiasm, they also have a stronger backing.

To send away the stars of tomorrow in the gaming industry, Chen Yuanming will inevitably have some emotions. For him, investing in Blizzard is not just a projection and memory of past memories, but an important part of his development plan. In the next few years, various game studios will begin to flourish with the popularity of personal computers. Those wonderful world-class masterpieces represent not only the sales of millions of discs, but also the entire game industry. Brand new world.

Surroundings, film and television copyrights, professional exhibitions, and even personal computer upgrades driven by the enhancement of game kernels ... and converged on this shiny golden avenue, there will be hundreds of sub-studios, thousands of The downstream manufacturers that are planned will be hundreds of millions of consumer groups, a wave of turbulence that is enough to trigger changes in the times.

Now this deep vein has buried the foreshadowing. What about another one in China?

In Chen Yuanming's slightly anxious expectation, Professor Yan finally brought back the good news he needed most. In July 1993, the world's first VCD was finally developed.

Can't wait, Chen Yuanming left everything in the United States and returned to China with Professor Yan. In the still humble studio, a prototype was lying quietly on a clean table. The silver-gray body is as thick as an ordinary VCR, and every button is flawless. Directly in front of the fuselage, a silhouette of a swallow is printed, so light and beautiful that it seems to be in the same shape as it is, and it is about to spread its wings to the sky.

Meng Lisheng's eyes were bloodshot, but his expression was extremely pleasing. He took out a CD and handed it to Chen Yuanming. "Try it?"

CD-ROM, vcd player ... These two things that should be extremely familiar, have now given Chen Yuanming a little strange fear. Suppressing the unspeakable emotion in his heart, he took a deep breath, pressed the position opening button, and put the disc in.

auzw.com There was a shake on the TV screen, and the strange shooting technique made the lens focus for a long time. A man appeared on the screen, talking with an excited smile.

"This is the vcd machine we developed!" The man slaps the prototype machine at hand and says with a smile, "After the founding of New China, the first home appliance completely designed and manufactured by the Chinese people! After so many years, we can finally not copy it. Instead of picking up leftovers from behind other people ’s buttocks, but completely independent development from idea to finished product. Although this is just a small player, it is not worth mentioning in terms of technology, but it contains enough things for me And all my colleagues are proud! "

The picture was again shaking slightly, and there were some applause and fine applause. The man seemed to be affected by the coquettishness and applause, and his cheeks were slightly red.

"Moreover, it is only our first step. Along this path, we will welcome a new era in which video carriers and playback equipment will be changed. How magnificent this era is, we do not know yet, but just Like Haiyan, we will face the wind, stand at the pinnacle of the waves, and stand bravely. As the so-called Yanlaichun arrives, we also hope that this brand will become our true 'Annunciation Bird' and lead us into this different new era. Come on! "

The shooting tools are very simple and the subjects are extremely unprofessional, but this is a small video that makes Chen Yuanming's eyes feel a little warm.

At the side, Meng Lisheng gave a very embarrassed cough. "It's all the ideas of the boys below, it's for the actual measurement equipment. I also recorded a karaoke disc, you can plug in and try ..."

"No need." Chen Yuanming shook his head, could not help but reached out his hand, touching the flying silhouette on the trademark. "Awesome short film, which is exactly what I want."

Professor Yan also laughed, "Yeah Meng, I didn't expect that your lens sense is also very good. Take it out is an excellent promotional video. Now that the prototype is available, we should make some sample machines as soon as possible. Going to apply for industrial copyright in various countries is just a matter of vcd discs ... "

"Leave it to me." Withdrawing his fingers from the player, Chen Yuanming smiled lightly. "I know a man, a guy who can definitely make this swallow soar!"

(At the end of this chapter, the code points prevent the claw machine from pulling air ...)

The author has something to say: It was a surprise to update so early? But this really is n’t the double rhythm, just going to the movies in the afternoon.

Cover your face, let's give the nest a half-day leave. People have been reading for a long time and haven't watched the film.
