Video Game Empire

The two brothers, Li Xuan and Li Ke, sit face to face in the office of the director of Mei Hing Industrial Building, Kwun Tong Industrial Zone. Li Xuanzheng lowered his head and looked at the ledger earnestly, while Li Ke leaned comfortably on the boss chair, smoking a cigarette leisurely, his eyes swept out the window aimlessly.

This is the first time that Keji Company has calculated its profits in detail after more than two months of production and operation, and is preparing to distribute dividends.

"Not bad!" Li Xuan finally read the accounts, let out a sigh of relief, and said to his eldest brother with a smile.

"It's just not bad? Little guy, he made 1.5 million in two months, and he's almost robbing a bank!"

Li Ke's eyes widened. After reading the accounts yesterday, he stayed up all night with excitement, and now he has dark circles under his eyes. But the younger brother's performance was not at all the excitement and excitement he expected.

Could this be the gap between you and your brother? It seems that in the future, I will need to cultivate myself more, that's right, what is two million! Under the calm expression of his younger brother, Li Ke no longer had the initial restlessness.

For Li Xuan, this was all expected, and naturally there were fewer surprises. However, the performance of Keji Company is still much better than he expected. Thanks to Du Wenqiang's efforts in the past few months, he has cracked all the popular arcade games on the Hong Kong market.

Although not every arcade game he cracked will be produced by the company, it also makes the factory's production arrangement a lot more flexible. This month, Keji Company is producing on-demand production according to the orders placed by Shao Yongqiang. All workers work overtime until midnight every day to maximize the factory's production capacity. Every time a game machine is made, it will be pulled away immediately, completely achieving zero inventory.

Unfortunately, this is almost the limit of Keji's development. Compared with a real big game company, this is still just a small cottage workshop.

"We'll have to seal a big red envelope for the fat boy later!" Li Ke let out a smoke ring, "He has contributed a lot during this time!"

Fat Boy is Li Ke's new nickname for Du Wenqiang. Compared with Li Xuan, who has to go to school and pick up girls, his energy is seriously scattered. After Du Wenqiang joined Keji Company, he truly devoted himself to cracking piracy. in business.

"Well, I really have to motivate him and try to squeeze out his remaining potential!" Li Xuan said with a smile.

Li Xuan has also discovered that if he does not have the aura of rebirth, he may not be as good as Du Wenqiang in terms of game programming skills. Before developing Hong Kong Square, it was not so much that Li Xuan developed a new game, but rather that he wrote a simple computer program that he was already familiar with.

Even so, Li Xuan threw the game to Fatty Du after he got the first version of the Hong Kong cube and asked an agency to file an international patent application on his behalf. The subsequent program debugging, optimization, and porting to the arcade system are all done by Fat Boy independently.

After all, he was born in microelectronics. Computer programming is not his old profession. Works such as integrated circuit design and chip embedded system development are his expertise. As for video games, it can only be regarded as his hobby. .

But now this hobby has become Li Xuan's main business, and he is constantly grabbing it, laying a solid financial foundation for him to do some work he is better at and more professional at will in the future. Li Xuan knows that his only advantage over others is the classic game ideas in his head, which is the most fundamental guarantee for him to dare to turn his hobby into a career.

It is a golden rule for countless successful people to start a brilliant career, and Li Xuan is no exception.

"What?" Du Wenqiang asked out of curiosity when he saw Li Xuan put a folded piece of paper on his desk.

Li Xuan smiled without saying a word, just stared at the fat boy Du's face quietly, watching him change from calm at first to surprise, and finally to a face full of excitement and excitement.

"Xuan Shao, this is true or false, the bonus that was given to me?" Du Wenqiang was holding a cash check from Standard Chartered Bank that had already been filled out, and the amount on it was 20,000 yuan.

"It's illegal to write a fake check, okay! If you don't want it, I can take it back!" Li Xuan gestured and stretched out his hand to get it back.

"Hey! I'm not too excited, how could I not!"

Du Wenqiang said, putting the check in his wallet and putting it away with a speed that was extremely disproportionate to his stature. He had previously signed a contract with Keji Company with a monthly salary of 3,500 yuan, and 20,000 yuan was equivalent to his half-year salary.

Du Wenqiang was naturally very happy when such a big surprise fell from the sky, and even the two pieces of fat on his cheeks shook when he laughed.

Li Xuan took out another stack of documents from the document bag, put it in front of Du Wenqiang and said, "Take a serious look, and if there is no problem, sign each document!"

Du Wenqiang hurriedly picked up the document and looked at it. The top document was the equity allocation agreement of Hong Kong Oriental Electronic Technology Co., Ltd. It was inevitable that he had some doubts in his heart.

This Hong Kong Oriental Electronic Technology Company is a newly registered company by Li Xuan not long ago, and it is also the first step he really took to start a business.

Keji Company was registered in the name of Li Ke. Li Xuan initially had a verbal agreement with his eldest brother that the profits earned by the company would be divided equally between the two brothers. But when the real dividend was distributed, Li Ke deposited 1.5 million in his brother's bank account, leaving only 500,000 as his nominal boss. Since the eldest brother has this intention, Li Xuan did not pretend to shirk, and accepted it calmly.

"What kind of company is this Hong Kong Orient Technology? Also, why are there two employment contracts here, and the annual salary difference is half, which one should I sign!" Du Wenqiang took ten minutes to finally read all the documents, but he did not Write in a hurry.

Seeing that Fat Boy had read all the documents, Li Xuan put down the newspaper in his hand, looked up at Du Wenqiang and said seriously: "This is my newly established company. The previous Keji company belonged to my eldest brother. And you also know that we produce The game console is actually a criminal act of infringing on the property rights of assets.

So my next goal is to develop my own original game. The Hong Kong cube in front is my test work during this period of time. You know, I've been interviewing and hiring people all this time. And these newly recruited employees are actually under the name of the new company and have nothing to do with Keji.

Now that the preliminary preparations are almost done, it is time to make a new sign! I hope you, the earliest veteran, can join the new company and start a great business with me! "

"Xuan Shao, after listening to your words, I have the urge to be enthusiastic. I must join the new company. I will sign the contract now!" Du Wenqiang said this, but his face was full of excitement. There is no expression, and it is estimated that the willingness to join the new company is mainly because of the high salary on the new contract.

Seeing his sensational speech, Li Xuan didn't cooperate at all, and he felt bored, so he continued to explain: "You are a veteran who was brought in by me when Ke Ji was first established, so I will give you more. An additional option. If you choose to sign the contract with an annual salary of 150,000, then I will take back the equity distribution agreement. Or take 0.5% of the new company's shares, then you can only choose another contract with an annual salary of 100,000 !"

"It's too little to get 50,000 less salary every year to exchange 0.5% of the shares. Is such a broken company worth 10 million?" Du Wenqiang whispered a few words, feeling a little uncertain.

Under Li Xuan's urging, after a few hesitations, Fat Boy Du finally chose a contract with a higher annual salary, and it was safe to do so. This choice also made him regret to die for his lack of understanding at the time whenever he recalled this incident. He actually lost hundreds of millions of dollars worth of shares for the mere 50,000 yuan salary, although at that time, as an executive of Dongfang Technology, he had already become a billionaire.

After Du Wenqiang signed the contract, he was quite afraid to look Li Xuan in the eyes. After all, Shao Xuan said just now that he would start a career with him, but he made the opposite choice in the blink of an eye. But that's 50,000 Hong Kong dollars. His old bean can't earn that much salary in a year.

In fact, Li Xuan not only was not dissatisfied at all, but secretly happy. He felt that he had done his best. It was this fat fat man who had no vision, and he would regret it in the future.
