After seeing the netizens' replies, Lin Chen exclaimed, "Goodness, can't you people be a little more pure in your thinking like me?"
Why is your mind filled with such lewd thoughts? Unlike me, all I think about is making money.
Although the people around me, like Fatty, Wang Sicong, Zhang Xuhao, Wu Bo, one by one...
He's either having a girlfriend or throwing a party; he's either getting a foot massage or a full-body massage.
Waaah, I can't say anymore, it'll only bring tears to my eyes.
No, I still have Dawei and the other two guys who are homebodies. They're the good guys!
So, Lin Chen went to Dawei's gaming club.
"Brother Dawei, are you busy?"
"Oh, Mr. Lin, you've arrived! What a rare guest!"
"Ahem, that's because the three of you are all very capable, so I don't need to worry about you at all."
"Hehe, thank you for the compliment, Mr. Lin."
"By the way, I happen to have a task for you guys to do game character modeling. There might be a lot of characters."
Next, Lin Chen explained the story background and character designs of the game "Honor of Kings" to Dawei and the others.
After hearing this, Dawei and the other two all showed expressions of disgust.
"President Lin, these character models are too... cough cough, they don't fit our creative style."
"So your creations are..."
Lin Chen glanced at the voluptuous game character model on the computer screen behind Brother Dawei and immediately understood.
"Oh... can you create it?"
"It's possible, but the final product might deviate slightly from what you have in mind."
Lin Chen was also caught in a dilemma. If he let Dawei and the others design it, would the final version of King of Glory have a strong anime/manga vibe?
Huh? I've got it.
Lin Chen had a sudden inspiration and spent two hours telling Dawei and the others a story about the continent of Teyvat.
From the Dragon King to the Heavenly Principles, from the War of the Demon Gods to Kanria, and finally the arrival of the Twin Stars...
The three of them listened with great enthusiasm; this was the kind of story they needed!
Instead of things like Mulan playing top lane or Li Bai playing jungle... that's all nonsense, history is all messed up, how are we supposed to educate kids in the future?
The teacher asked, "Li Bai was a famous poet of the Tang Dynasty. What are his representative works?"
The child answered, "Li Bai is incredibly skilled at jungling."
teacher:? ? ?
So, after a heated discussion, Lin Chen, Dawei, and the other two finally changed the "King of Glory" in Lin Chen's mind into a brand new version - "Genshin Impact: The Prequel - Demon Wars"!
That's right, another groundbreaking game, Genshin Impact, was thus launched.
However, both games use the same set of models. The specific game content of Genshin Impact Prequel: Demon Wars was developed by Lin Chen, while Genshin Impact was developed by Dawei and his two teammates.
After finalizing the game details, Lin Chen returned to his office with satisfaction. Once these two games were completed, who in the entire mobile game industry could rival him?
Little Ma was still immersed in the joy of making money playing Dou Dizhu (a card game), unaware that while Dou Dizhu was a golden egg, another huge golden egg had quietly slipped away from him.
Ah-choo~~~ Little Ma, far away in Shenzhen, sneezed. He had a feeling that some bad guy was secretly watching him and wanted to do something bad to him. But recently, apart from Mi Xin posing a slight threat to his position, nothing else had happened.
Speaking of Mixin, Pony Ma (Ma Huateng, founder of Tencent) is really speechless about this software.
According to his words during the meeting, this software was like an unkillable cockroach. When it was first released, the number of registered users exploded, making it the second largest mobile instant messaging software. At that time, Pony Ma noticed this software, but despite the high number of registered users, its user activity was the lowest.
So Pony Ma didn't take him seriously. Later, it seems that Lin Chen demonstrated a feature called "People Nearby," which revived the software. But not long after, there was no news about it again.
Later, Lin Chen created a QR code. Unless you have a Xiaomi phone, you have to use MiXin to scan the code, which boosted user activity even more.
After all this back and forth, Pony Ma stopped paying attention to it. Unexpectedly, this old 6 app has recently become popular again, and Lin Chen has also integrated Huasuan Pay into MiXin.
Little Ma didn't know what to say. Lin Chen, are you treating this software like a garbage can, putting all sorts of things into it?
It's just that Lin Chen doesn't do things like QQ Show or QQ Space, otherwise Little Ma would have treated him to a meal at Pizza Hut in Nanshan.
Last time, Xiao Long, who was in charge of QQ email, came and handed Xiao Ma a proposal called WeChat. Xiao Ma glanced at it and realized that it was just copied from MiXin.
Look how many times Mixin has almost died. It's only because Lin Chen has so many tricks up his sleeve that Mixin software would have been wiped out by now.
So Pony Ma directly asked Jack Ma a question: If WeChat becomes like MiXin, do you think you can save it?
After listening to the proposal, Brother Xiaolong silently put it away and never mentioned it again.
If Lin Chen knew about this, she would definitely send Little Ma a bouquet of flowers and sing to him, "Listen to me, thank you, because of you, the four seasons are warm..."
However, Pony Ma is still very grateful to Lin Chen. Although he spent 500 million yuan to buy Fruit Ninja, the game is still generating revenue for Tencent.
Moreover, after listening to Lin Chen's advice, TX immediately organized a team to develop the game "Happy Landlords", which made them incredibly wealthy.
Lin Chen: It wasn't me, I had no suggestions!
Moreover, the "Happy Landlords" team fully understands what it means to change skins and spend money. A small Landlords character is made to look like a QQ Show character, and you can buy clothes. You can even change the skin of the card table in your room. The key is that some people actually spend money on it.
Tencent's next game, "Happy Mahjong," is already in development, and Pony Ma (Tencent's CEO) is very satisfied. Mobile games should be down-to-earth. Games like StarCraft Technology, which are always focused on anime and manga, have very few players. Just look at their revenue figures; they're no match for "Happy Landlords."
One day in late August, good news came from Kai-Fu Lee: Benchmark Capital and Firstmark Capital, two investment banks, agreed to sell their shares in Riot Games. The two companies owned 26.6% and 22.4% of the shares respectively, for a total of $35 million, which is about RMB 250 million.
Kai-Fu Lee said that the two investment banks' asking price was a bit too high, almost double the price they paid for the acquisition, and that they could negotiate further. But Lin Chen was afraid that things might change if he waited too long, so he agreed without hesitation.
Neither investment bank expected the other party to agree to the price so readily, so they agreed to sign the contract in early September in New York.
