Chapter 201 Overseas Situation

Lin Ruoyan was in Panshi, and the family treated her with great hospitality. Panshi's boss kept asking about Lin Ruxu's situation. Lin Ruoyan knew that this person was looking for a son-in-law.

Although I initially disliked Lin Ruxu for not being married in his thirties, suspecting him of being a playboy with too many girlfriends, I later observed him from various angles and concluded that he was simply too busy with work and didn't enjoy dating. Wouldn't it be much better if he had the time to negotiate more business partnerships? But, at such an advanced age, he still cultivates his character. Could there be something wrong with his health?

It's impossible to ask Lin Ruoyan directly about this kind of thing, so she asked in various ways, asking about Lin Ruxu's health.

Lin Ruoyan understood immediately. She said her brother often went to the gym and was a second-level athlete when he was young. It seemed that the amateur 5th-dan Go player participated in some competition and was able to get a certificate back then. Go is a serious intellectual sport. However, most people don't understand that the national standard for second-level athletes is divided into different sports. Simply saying "national second-level athlete" without mentioning the specific sport is particularly intimidating.

People see that Lin Ruoyan is graceful and elegant, and her son is a child prodigy. Lin Ruxu has been excellent in both character and study since childhood. This must be a family with good genes.

Not to mention that Lin Ruxu inherited the family business right after graduating from university. His parents died unexpectedly, but he was able to stabilize everyone and revive the business by himself, and even make the company bigger and stronger. This is real ability.

It would be ideal if the man was capable and the daughter could marry him without any in-laws. A strong marriage between the two families would definitely be a good thing. But then he started to worry again, afraid that Lin Ruxu would look down on their daughter.

Although their daughter had impulsively bought a villa next to the Lin family to "wait and see", Lin Ruxu has been so busy recently that she rarely returns to the villa. Could it be that she is avoiding them because she doesn't want to?

Lin Ruoyan said, "Maybe it was my brother's first time being pursued by a little girl, and he was too shy to face it. If they can have business cooperation in the future, and have serious work dealings, and just talk about business instead of romance, then it will be easier to get along. When the two of them become business partners and get to know each other better over time, maybe it will work out."

Lin Ruoyan herself had no successful relationship experience, so she simply copied Lin Ruxu's approach from the book, and gradually it became a natural progression. He could get along with anyone who approached Lin Ruxu about business, so starting with that aspect would make everything else easier.

Upon hearing this, the other parent quickly called their daughter. She had been promoted to Vice President of Panshi's Beijing branch, specifically responsible for coordinating matters, both large and small, at the Lin Group. This rekindled her thinking about her future course of action. Regardless of success or failure, the business partnership should be strengthened, so no one would suffer.

Lin Ruoyan learned a lot about the logic of expanding overseas projects here at Panshi. With Wang Kui, a top student, she could often discuss things with him. As a result, her ideas about how to develop overseas markets gradually became clearer.

When she returned to the capital again, Lin Ruoyan began to think about what the overseas market she had always wanted to expand into actually included.

First, web games are not very expensive, so they can be launched for trial.

Following her initial advice, Hao Heshan has already begun developing a web game, even pre-configuring language conversion channels and different tile replacement locations from the outset. To put it bluntly, the core program will remain unchanged, simply re-skinning the web game. In China, a web game development cycle might be two to three months, with a lifespan of one to two years. With two years of development in China and another two years of re-skinning and development overseas, the cost-benefit ratio becomes very attractive.

Lin Ruoyan has always insisted on developing web games. This isn't just due to the computer specifications and internet speeds of the era in her book, but also because client-based games face extremely strict censorship. This applies not only in China but also in most other countries. In contrast, web games are relatively easy to review, and the rules for in-game krypton gold are well-designed, ensuring no disruption to profitability, while also keeping development costs low.

Hao Heshan's technical prowess is undeniable. After registering in the Shijs District, they focused on developing web games. From the outset, they pursued a dual strategy of domestic and international expansion. This garnered significant attention from their superiors, who not only provided financial subsidies but also contacted several major universities to secure a transfer of relevant senior talent. Students received internship opportunities, ensuring future employment, and the company's own talent needs also increased significantly.

In the past, Hao Heshan was merely the information manager for a real estate company, relying entirely on social recruitment, headhunters, or simply convincing industry experts. Now, things were different. He was a legitimately supported high-tech enterprise, and building a strong team required not only specialized professionals but also a team with external responsibilities. Besides programmers and artists, his Arabic, Japanese, and South Korean translators were all graduates from established universities specializing in minority languages, not hired from translation agencies. He quickly built up a team, and his company became a highly regulated one.

Lin Ruoyan talked about the markets in Northeast Asia and the Arabic-speaking world early in the morning. He listened, thought about it, and thought it was good.

The Arabic-speaking world, especially those wealthy countries rich in oil, are currently deeply tied to the economies of developed countries. The upper and middle classes of society have all received Western education, speak Arabic well, and have seen the advanced things in developed countries, such as computers, the Internet, and mobile phones, which are also available in their big cities.

Especially resource-rich countries like Saudi Arabia and the Emirates, whose people are extremely rich, are said to be building modern cities in the desert at all costs. They want to have what developed countries in Europe and the United States have, and they also want to have what developed countries in Europe and the United States do not have, such as the world's tallest building and the largest artificial island.

This nouveau riche ethos is so strong; how could the younger generation, those thousands of princes, not play games? However, developed countries in Europe and America simply force-dump their cultural products, attempting to completely Westernize others, without ever considering developing entertainment products that align with local cultural traditions. This is exactly where Hao Heshan will focus next: localizing and integrating from the outset.

The second direction is overseas real estate.

There are two types of overseas real estate: one is to build luxury homes overseas, and the other is to build ordinary residential buildings and new cities.

The logic behind luxury homes is self-evident. There are many overseas Chinese, and there are also many wealthy people in China who own properties overseas. For Lin's Real Estate, which has already built top-tier luxury homes in China, it is easier to expand into overseas luxury homes than to build ordinary residences.

For ordinary residential areas, we can consider the idea of ​​building new cities, which is also applicable abroad.

The infrastructure of many overseas countries lags behind that of our country. The old capitalist countries started early and built infrastructure early. Now there are too many century-old buildings, which are cultural relics that cannot be demolished. Modern new buildings can only be built in the suburbs or satellite cities.

Some colonized countries, after independence, no longer have the funds for infrastructure development. Their cities are mostly antiques from the colonial era, built solely to meet the trade needs of the colonizers, with no regard for the survival and well-being of the working people. When the colonizers were driven out, the country needed to develop and expand its cities, either by building new homes or new towns.

There are many countries like this on the African continent. Outside of major cities, the land is still barren, and many buildings in major cities are dilapidated. However, their own construction technology and construction capabilities are worrying, and all large construction equipment must be imported.

A large number of Chinese people have been working to support Africa for decades, arriving there. However, Lin Ruoyan's focus isn't on Africa yet. At this point in the book, there's actually a better option in South America.
