The entertainment industry shouldn't be like this

Chapter 104 Joint formation of two ships

Be appreciated by the big guys, become CEO, marry a rich and beautiful woman, and reach the peak of her life...

Well, Gu Jinguang still thinks too much.

——Wang Wei finally learned the young man’s name.

But appreciation is no matter how much appreciation is, it is impossible for him to rashly push a young man to a high-level position because of his appreciation.

Even if he is a genius!

To be honest, Gu Jinguang can afford the evaluation of "wizards".

It is said that he has played all the electronic games on the market. During his internship in college, Mengtian Company, the largest console game developer in China, offered an annual salary of more than 200,000 yuan and hired him as game planner.

However, after his internship, he refused generous treatment and turned to join the unknown Weibo Technology.

"I think I belong here." Gu Jinguang explained the reason why he joined this rapidly developing Internet social enterprise.

Well, there is nothing wrong with saying that.

After all, he had just joined the company and had not even settled his official position, so he attracted many people, including Wang Wei, using only one "Entering the Game" plan.

Gu Jinguang took advantage of the situation and started planning a large-scale online game!

However, no matter whether it is a merger or self-development, it is still on paper because Weibo technology has no money...

...

How to present and resonate the stories of the same topic across media; how to integrate the two arts of games and film and television from conception to production...

Although this means a very complicated job and requires many technical problems to be overcome, Gu Jinguang still happily accepted the "homework" assigned by Wang Wei-

Before the development team was formed, the "hands-practice work" he planned was highly praised by Wang Wei.

In the game, in addition to "sowing, watering, fertilizing, deworming, and harvesting" in their own vegetable garden, players can also help their friends' vegetable garden watering and deworming. Of course, "helping out the benefits" is the essence of this game, such as stealing vegetables!

Simple interactive gameplay truly reflects the meaning of social games to the fullest; the "lightweight" and "fragmented" design ideas are advanced.

At present, society is more strict in protecting intellectual property rights - of course it is impossible to completely avoid following the trend and plagiarism, but compared with that world, the price that "follow-up tactics" may pay is definitely not on the same level.

Therefore, Gu Jinguang is more important.

Some people insist on self-development and go their own way;

Some people think it can be acquired - like chess and card casual games, some small companies in the market do a good job and can be acquired directly;

Fortunately, this is only temporary.

He had no doubts about Wang Wei's long-term strategic planning ability.

However, in this time and space, "follow-up tactics" are not popular, at least, not a priority option for Weibo technology.

This is great now. The company gives resources and everyone competes fairly. Those who are capable are superior and those who are weak are inferior.

Although Lao Wang still has doubts about the "destiny of film and television is a game", this does not affect the joint formation of the two ships.

——After several rounds of negotiations, Wang Chuanqi, on behalf of Dunhuang, officially reached an agreement with Weibo Technology, spending 200 million yuan to hold 18% of Weibo Technology's equity.

For Wang Chuanqi, the trip to Weibo was a fresh experience.

In his eyes, Weibo technology is full of a group of extremely smart and highly motivated people.

They talk about all kinds of topics, they have all kinds of ideas—unlike ordinary people who have good ideas but cannot turn them into reality, they obviously will firmly and even fanatically turn their ideas into reality.

Of course, no one has proposed the "follow-up tactics" that Wang Wei is familiar with.

Because the overall environment is different.

Gu Jinguang was naturally very interested in this.

The equity ratio of co-founder Jiang Lei fell from 20% to 13%, down 7%.

——The Antarctic creature in that world, it is said that it is very effective to use this tactic.

And Gu Jinguang only has the word "天" to Wang Wei, who is younger than him!

This kind of vitality is very attractive!

After the game strategy was determined, the cooperation between the two companies seemed more natural.

Weibo Technology officially established a game department. On the one hand, it acquired some suitable small game companies, and on the other hand, it formed a self-developed team to finally speak with results.

This is definitely not something that one or two casual games can carry. At least it is a large online game that can exert the value of "film and game linkage".

Well, in this way, he actually feels at ease - if he really wants to be directly responsible for a department, he will definitely feel upset, which is too unreliable.

To be honest, the "at the end of film and television is the game" proposed by Gu Jinguang himself is more of a fantasy.

One principle recognized by the investment circle is - "Investing is investing in people."

The final result of the discussion is that the two lines go hand in hand.

Even if we change the time and space, the Chinese people's "vegetable DNA" will not change. Wang Wei believes that this game will repeat the craze for the whole nation to "steal vegetables".

——Not only because of Wang Wei’s appreciation, but also because of the concept of “film and game linkage” he proposed.

Therefore, during this discussion, Wang Wei was completely different from when he was in Dunhuang. He never exercised the power of "one vote of approval" or "one vote of rejection" and looked more like a compromiser.

Among them, Wang Wei's shareholding in Weibo Technology has changed from 70% to 59%, paying 11 percentage points of equity for this new financing dilution.

——The so-called "follow-up tactic" means that after the opponent makes an idea, he creates it based on the idea itself and finally creates a copy that seems very close to the original work, but surpasses the original work itself in some details. Then, relying on the comprehensive advantages of operations, traffic, capital, and technology research and development, he finally achieves a post-production.

The result was that the company supported him to form a game development team and implement his series of ideas.

It was a casual game planning for growing vegetables on a farm.

However, whether a company can develop in the long run cannot only depend on strategy, but also on people.

——Yes, after many rounds of discussion, entering the game has become a consensus among most people in Weibo Technology.

However, how to enter the game has become a point of debate.

He is confident of winning in a fair competition.

——This confidence did not come out of thin air.

Gu Jinguang's game development team is just one of them.

But Wang Wei's "film and game linkage" can be said to be an attempt to implement this imagination.

The 10% option pool used for equity incentives remains unchanged. In this round of financing, Weibo Technology's valuation reached 1.1 billion yuan in one fell swoop.

This financing has brought a lot of funds to Weibo Technology, allowing the company to let go and develop a series of ideas, create more profitable ways to do whatever it wants, and open up its own territory.

For Dunhuang, this is not just about getting a ticket to use the Internet to develop craze.
