My 1999

"Did you give her options?"

"0.5%, which will be paid gradually based on performance within three years. In addition, the annual salary is 300,000 Chinese dollars, plus 2% fund dividend."

Xu Liang nodded. This salary level is not too high, but it is not low either.

"Who are you going to hand over the Venus Fund to?"

"Qi Hong."

A fat middle-aged man appeared in Xu Liang's mind.

"Are you sure he can?"

"In the field of investment, his independent investment ability is indeed not excellent, but his execution ability is strong. Precious metal investment and jewelry raw materials do not require too high a vision, and the risks are not high. We do not need a fund manager with too much subjective initiative, just We just need to be able to faithfully implement our decisions.

In this aspect alone, Qi Hong is the most suitable candidate. "

Xu Liang pondered for a moment and nodded.

"Mars Fund, are you responsible for yourself?"

"Yeah. I wouldn't trust it if it were left to someone else." Jiang Xiaoyang said.

"One more thing. I just received a call from Sanshui. The matter has been solved and the man behind it has been captured."

"Who is so bold?" Jiang Xiaoyang looked angry.

"李 @￥."

"I guessed it was this guy. But if you had such a big incident in Sanshui, the Sanshui government never thought of compensating you?"

"They told me that the 380 million acquisition funds that were originally required to be paid in three months can now be relaxed to one year."

"They are too stingy. Only for one year? I still want to exempt corporate income tax for a few years." Jiang Xiaoyang said.

"It's already very good. With a one-year buffer, I don't need to find a bank loan. I can repay the 380 million yuan with Jianlibao's revenue alone."

"That's true."

"Let's go, let's finish talking about business. Let's go to dinner?" Xu Liang stood up.

"I want to eat the food you cooked with your own hands."

"no problem."

The two left the company together.

——

Time passed day by day, and soon it was May 1st.

Xu Liang, Xie Wen, and the entire top management of Hongmeng Games gathered at Jumang Studio.

I looked at the time and saw it was eight in the morning.

Xu Liang took a deep breath and said solemnly in the eyes of everyone looking forward to it.

"start."

Bang bang bang….

The sound of keyboard tapping sounded.

"Legend 2 Hot-Blooded Legend" is officially uploaded.

The numbers on the big screen next to him jumped quickly, very fast.

Ten thousand, fifty thousand, one hundred thousand.

"Mr. Xu, it's over one million!"

Xie Wen said excitedly.

Xu Liang nodded vigorously, and he was very excited.

In just ten minutes, the number of registered users of "Legend 2" exceeded one million, which is a hundred times faster than that of "Legend 1".

And after surpassing one million, the number of registrations for "Legend 2 Legend" has no intention of slowing down.

Obviously, with the previous "Legend 1" foundation, the popularity of "Legend of Blood" is far higher than in history.

One million and two hundred thousand, one and a half million, two million.

In one morning, the number of registered users of "Legend of Hot Blood" exceeded 2.6 million.

The number of people online at the same time exceeded 150,000.

Bang, bang, bang...!

I don’t know who started first, but loud applause resounded throughout the entire floor.

Excitement showed on everyone's faces.

"Mr. Xu, we succeeded."

Wu Xifan looked excited.

According to the current development trend, it will not be a problem for the number of registrations of "Legend of Blood" to exceed four million by the end of the day. If it develops well, it may even exceed five million.

This is the peak data of "Legend 1".

"I'll treat you to Dongxing Tower tonight to celebrate everyone's success."

"Wow, long live Mr. Xu."

Everyone in Jumang Studio cheered.

Leaving space for everyone, he greeted Xie Wen and left Jumang Studio.

Returning to his office, he asked Xie Wen to sit down.

"Mr. Xu, the success of "Legend of Blood" comes at the right time."

Xu Liang understood what he meant and was about to raise funds. The surge in Hongmeng China's revenue would also have a positive impact on Hongmeng International's financing.

“Is the list of fund-raising targets ready?”

"Already prepared."

Xie Wen made a phone call and asked his secretary to send the documents over.

Xu Liang took it and took a look.

It clearly states Sequoia Capital, Kleiner Perkins Caufield \u0026 Byers, SoftBank Group, Samsung Venture Capital, Temasek, and 3I Group.

There are six in total.

Xu Liang thought for a while, crossed out Kleiner Perkins Caufield \u0026 Byers and replaced it with Goldman Sachs Asia. This is the real big deal. The key is that Hongmeng is now qualified to attract investment from other parties.

"In addition to 3i Group, are there any venture capital companies headquartered in Germany or France?" Xu Liang asked.

He knew that in the English-speaking area, Hongmeng would definitely not be able to compete with the Internet companies in Silicon Valley, especially the industry leader Google, so he had no intention of entering the British market from the beginning.

So the 3i launched in the UK seems a bit redundant.

"Yes, there is, but the influence is too small and far behind 3i. And although 3i is a British company, its investors are all over Europe, which is of great help to our development in Europe."

After Xu Liang thought about it for a while, he nodded.

Thinking of his commitment to MIH Group, Xu Liang added MIH Group.

This South African company, listed in Amsterdam, also has a certain influence in Europe. The key is that Xu Liang needs a catfish to stir up the fish pond.

MIH Group is very suitable. If they are disobedient, excluding them will not affect the overall situation.

"Just these seven companies, send them invitation letters." Xu Liang said.

Xie Wen nodded, "The negotiation location is still in Xiangjiang?"

"Um."

"Then I'll get ready."

After Xie Wen left, Xu Liangliang also started to look forward to it.

He is looking forward to an exciting high price for Hongmeng International’s financing.

Allowing him to accumulate enough capital to enter the European market.

One day passed quickly, and the number of registered users of "Legend of Hot Blood" reached 4.78 million, and the number of people online at the same time exceeded 240,000.

Although the growth rate on the second day slowed down, the number of registered users of "Legend of Hot Blood" exceeded 6 million, and the number of people online at the same time exceeded 330,000.

A week later, the number of registered users of "Legend of Hot Blood" officially exceeded 15 million, and the number of people online at the same time exceeded 800,000.

Half a month later, "Legend of Blood" officially started charging.

The growth in the number of registered users has slowed down, and the number of online users has also dropped back to around 400,000.

Even so, judging from the revenue data and growth rate, the revenue of "Legend of Blood" in May can exceed 30 million.

It will at least exceed 50 million in June.

Under the overwhelming publicity of Hongmeng Company, the trend of "Legend" has spread throughout the gaming industry. Because it is so popular, it has even attracted the attention of major serious media.

In the words of 20 years later, this is called ‘out of the circle’.

"Looking at the development of China's game industry from the popularity of 'Legend'" - Beijing Evening News.

"The proliferation of electronic opium represented by 'Legend' should arouse our vigilance" - China Youth Daily.

"The game that is popular across the country - Legend" - China Computer News. …

If serious offline media reports are relatively conservative, then online media including Sina and NetEase are less scrupulous.

"Shocking, fiery legend, the prosperous age of games" - Sina.

"Twenty million people draw their swords together, who can be a hero in "Legend"" - NetEase.

"Earning millions a day, the popularity of Legend has made Hongmeng a lot of money" - Sohu.

Continuous reports have made more people aware of "Legend". As the development company of "Legend", Hongmeng has also officially entered the attention of more people.

——

In the clubhouse box, several people were puffing away.

"I didn't expect that I could make so much money from playing games. If I had known I would make games too," Duan Yongji said with envy.

"It's not too late."

A bald head with eyes shining with greed.

"Xiao Shi is moved?"

Shi Yuzhu nodded, "Who is not interested in a profitable business? And I don't think it's difficult to play games. Boss Liu, don't you give it a try?"

"I'll forget it, I don't understand things about young people." Liu Chuanzhi smiled and shook his head.

There are so many profitable businesses, and if he really wants to do it, there is no need for him to choose a game.

And he was also frightened by these new gadgets. In 1999, he spent more than 200 million to build FM365. It was pretty good at first, no worse than Sina and NetEase. But when the Nasdaq crisis hit, he was completely blindsided.

Now that FM365 is half-dead, he doesn't dare to do it again.

You must know that Lenovo is still a state-owned company now. He has been criticized for paying more than 200 million yuan in compensation. If he pays a large sum, he will probably be laid off.

"But Xu Liang from Hongmeng Company is really powerful. With this game, his net worth will probably surpass our brother's soon." Feng Lun said enviously.

"I heard that he is only nineteen years old this year, and he is still a high school student who has not gone to college?" Shi Yuzhu asked curiously.

"Among us, only Lao Duan has met him." Liu Chuanzhi said.

Looking at everyone's eyes, Duan Yongji nodded.

"Xu Liang is indeed very young. I don't know exactly how old he is."

He's having a hard time now.

After missing out on the list of websites, Sina has never been able to turn losses into profits. Shareholders have continued to raise objections. If they hadn't still had some connections, they would have been kicked out of Sina.

"Boss Liu, you're so proud, why don't you invite someone out so we can meet?" Shi Yuzhu said.

"Yuzhu's suggestion is good, and we also need some fresh blood in our association." Feng Lun said with a smile.

"I'll give it a try. People may not give me this face." Liu Chuanzhi said.

"In the business world of the capital, who dares to compete with you, Boss Liu." Shi Yuzhu said with a smile.

"That's not necessarily the case. There is someone behind this person."

Liu Chuanzhi's meaningful words made everyone curious.

"Boss Liu, is this Xu Liang the son of some big boss?" Shi Yuzhu asked curiously.

"That's not true. But he is now in a relationship with the daughter of the top leader in the capital."

Everyone was stunned.

"No wonder Hongmeng has developed so big, but no one dares to make any plans. It turns out that the background is so deep." Feng Lun said.

"So we'd better not offend him." Liu Chuanzhi said.

"We just met to make friends. There is no grudge or grudge. Why should we offend him?" Shi Yuzhu said.

"Then let's try it."
