Pioneer of the Rebirth Era

While Yang Dongxu and Chang Hao were discussing NetEase, Ding Sanshi, who was at NetEase headquarters in Guangzhou, was sitting in his office and flipping through the plans for "Fantasy Westward Journey".

Because it is of the same type as the game "Westward Journey", although the game "Fantasy Westward Journey" seems to be better than Westward Journey in terms of planning, he has been reluctant to invest in research and development.

In other words, for the sake of his own stock price, he cannot embark on two risky projects at once. After all, as a listed company, you must make the company look better in terms of financial statements and R&D projects.

And although NetEase is currently transforming into games, its main source of income is not games. One of the games it made well before was "Tianxia", but after allocating resources to Westward Journey, Tianxia is ready to close the server. Anyway, it is free.

Turning the game off won't have much of an impact.

At present, NetEase's main profit point is still the portal website, plus its focus on email, Chinese full-text search, etc. This is the main reason for NetEase's listing. Games are actually just the driving force.

Therefore, he is optimistic about the game market. There are constant problems in Westward Journey, and the listing has to be postponed. He has no intention of giving up. However, for the sake of stock price, he cannot launch two similar games at once. After all, it would be fine if they were made, but not

It will be fun when you come out.

Therefore, after repeated consideration, he couldn't help but have some thoughts after realizing that Rising Sun Technology's purpose of buying Fantasy Westward Journey seemed to be mainly to poach people.

As the current developer of turn-based games, I have even entered the game. Although there are constant bugs, Ding Sanshi knows this type of game best and no one dares to argue with him.

Therefore, no matter how powerful the game R&D department of Rising Sun Technology is, it will not release all the people. If it only releases some technical personnel, it will take a while for the other team's team to adjust, it will take a while for research and development, and it will take a while for internal launch.

In this way, even if Xuri Technology is very powerful in developing games, it will definitely not be able to produce this game in less than two years.

Although the development of Westward Journey Westward Journey continues to have problems, it is actually getting better. As long as the most basic configuration of the server is completed and bugs are corrected, it will take a few months at most and it will be released in the second half of the year without any problems.

In other words, even if Rising Sun Technology develops Fantasy Westward Journey and a game of the same type as Westward Journey, the competition between the two will only be two years later.

In the field of the Internet, too many things can be done in two years. Not to mention two years, many major events can happen even in one year. For example, the rise of the humble Microsoft and surpassing IBM is a very rapid thing.

What's more, he still has two years to delve into this type of game market, and how long is the lifespan of a game in half a year?

Five years is actually a threshold. Even if you can basically reach the peak of the game in five years, the next step is downhill. It is more difficult to reach the peak again than to develop a new hit game.

After all, the Internet is developing too fast, and games are updated very quickly. No matter how you update a game or add expansion packs, players will sooner or later get tired of the basics.

In this way, he can make money for two years first. After the other party builds Fantasy Westward Journey and joins the market, he will have the upper hand in the first year no matter how powerful the other party is. This is something Ding Sanshi is still confident about.

Then in the second year, the two people will be considered tied. In the third year, when the five-year threshold of the game is reached, everyone will make money together. After five years, it will be seen who can last longer at the peak.

Based on this overall calculation, even if I sell this game project, the person who proposed this project and a few programmers to the other party, it seems that the impact on me will not be as big as imagined.

What he got in exchange was a better server and very good financial statements in the next two to three years. The company's market value continued to rise, which undoubtedly meant a lot of money.

So after being unable to solve the Westward Journey server problem, Ding Sanshi hesitated for a while and finally began to relent. The condition was to get the game server.

As for whether Xuri Technology can meet this condition, it is their problem. Even if it cannot be met, it doesn't matter. This condition is not something that you will never let go, but you have not fulfilled the conditions I proposed. In the subsequent negotiation process, other

The other party must make concessions under the terms, otherwise it will appear to be insincere.

Yang Dongxu obviously hasn't figured out Ding Sanshi's little thoughts yet. But regardless of whether he has figured it out or not, the development team of Fantasy Westward Journey will definitely win it. This will be an evergreen tree for domestic games in the future, a huge IP. NetEase has several IPs every year.

At least two-thirds of the revenue of tens of billions is contributed by this game.

However, after some consideration, the sale of game servers certainly cannot set a precedent, but the lease terms, price concessions for subsequent updates and upgrades, and freedom of choice can be loosened.

"Let you continue to contact them. To put it bluntly, it's a deal between a game project and a few programmers. If they ask for too much, don't worry.

Anyway, they are currently worried about the Westward Journey issue. Even if we don't sell this game, they won't be able to start research and development on their own in a short time. If we are really desperate, it won't be too difficult for us to set up a new game research and development department.

." Yang Dongxu gave Chang Hao a general framework.

Because he knew the future prospects of Dream Westward Journey, he really didn't care if he was delayed for half a year or a year. At worst, he could make up for it by hurrying up when the expansion pack is updated.

The reason why he insisted on buying this game was actually the same as what Ding Sanshi Changhao guessed. Yang Dongxu mainly fell in love with Xu Youzhen, the planner of this game.

Rising Sun Technology is a game company, so it must focus on the game department. After the legendary incident, the only general left who could take charge of the game was Chang Hao. As a commander with no soldiers under his command, it was particularly pitiful.

This chapter is not finished yet, please click the next page to continue reading the exciting content! Not only is it tiring for Chang Hao to control the game R&D department by himself, it is also prone to corruption and conflicts. For example, even if Legend helped Jianxian with R&D before, two

We have a good relationship with the game department, and the Swordsman Success Legend team isn’t too jealous.

But the main staff of the Legend R&D department are mainly Koreans. Back then, Yang Dongxu packed them up and poached them. The Jianxian side is naturally the Jinshan Department, and they were also poached. These are two naturally formed hills, and now

The person in charge of Legend was fired, and now the entire department is taken over by Changhao, which means that the Jinshan family is the only one.

This is very detrimental to the development of the company. Let's speculate maliciously. If one day someone wants to poach Xuri Technology and targets Chang Hao, and then Chang Hao raises his arms, Xuri Technology may be paralyzed in half.

And it is not easy to manage a team that is the only one in the industry. Although Changhao and the others are highly paid, because they are the only one, they may feel that the high salary is a bit low, and they will want more.

But it will be different if Xu Youzhen joins. The popularity of Fantasy Westward Journey can be expected. By then, the two departments, plus the legend that uses the remaining heat, will be a troika each with its own merits.

Healthy competition can be formed. As long as the salary and benefits are higher than those of peers, everyone will accept it and there will be no small thoughts.

After all, Xu Youzhen, who made such a good game as Fantasy Westward Journey, also earns such a salary. Why should you, Changhao, get more? With horizontal comparison of teams, you can make a lot easier.

After Chang Hao left, Yang Dongxu sat in the boss's chair and pondered for a while, not thinking about NetEase. But if Xu Youzhen was poached and then a game department was established, the current office area of ​​Xuri Technology seemed a bit small.

Therefore, whether to continue to rent office buildings or buy a building by ourselves is on the agenda. In addition to this, there is also the issue of whether Xuri Technology will relocate.

Compared with the Magic City, Yanjing, and Shenzhen or Guangzhou over there, Hangzhou is indeed not a very good game industry incubation base. First of all, the various supporting facilities and policies are not as convenient and favorable as other cities.

Therefore, the current scale of Xuri Technology in Hangzhou actually feels constrained. If it expands its operations, it will easily hit the ceiling.

What's more, Xuri Technology cannot only have three game departments in the future, there will be more game departments and other departments. After all, Yang Dongxu has never given up on using chat software.

Going to Shenzhen?

Brother Xiao Ma doesn’t know why he didn’t appear in this life. This is a change with great uncertainties. But Feixun Technology CC stepped up and their headquarters is in Shenzhen.

MM's headquarters is in Magic City, and the game company Ninetowns is located in Yanjing, and he is in several cities. Going to Yanjing is actually not that high a priority, even though there is Zhongguancun somewhere that is not called China's Silicon Valley.

"My head hurts!" Yang Dongxu knocked on his head after thinking for a long time without making a final decision.

If it really doesn't work, we can only spread the news first and see what preferential settlement conditions are offered by several cities before making a choice.

The documents continued to be processed until noon, and the assistant delivered the takeout to the office. Yang Dongxu ate while browsing the news at night.

As soon as I turned on the computer, it was easy to see the news about Hanxin No. 1. Several major portal websites have reprinted today's news release. After all, if chip research and development is forced to do so, there is nothing wrong with classifying it into the Internet industry, even now

When it comes to the Internet industry, everyone is actually confused, thinking that it is a virtual market dominated by software.

"Is there a hole in your brain?" Yang Dongxu, who was watching the news while eating lunch, couldn't help but frown and cursed subconsciously.

This is a news reprint report from a certain wave. It contains many interviews and questions from reporters at the time, which are highlighted and the content in black font is.

Reporter: As the first person in domestic chip research and development, what do you think of the future and your competitors?

Chen Chu: Hanxin No. 1 will become an epoch-making product, and I will continue to lead the national chip industry forward. As for competitors...

Chen Chu turned back and took a look, then smiled slightly: I didn't see the shadow of my opponent. Maybe seeing my taillights was a luxury for them.
