He originally thought that these were just some wild ideas, at most just empty promises, but Xia Ruoming had already made a detailed plan for how to actually develop them.
After a long time, Li Wuya finally finished reading the pile of documents, but his furrowed brows could not be relaxed.
"Did my junior come up with all this on her own?" Li Wuya asked.
"Not really, I just had this idea." Xia Ruoming shrugged, "I have my own company called Qinghan Culture, which is now managed by Sister Qinghan. Most of the details are completed by her."
Li Wuya nodded, but his expression seemed still very hesitant, because he knew very well that those people in the past had their reasons for rejecting him, and this kind of project was not something he could easily handle by himself.
"Hey, junior, I'm not trying to discourage you. I am indeed somewhat interested in this project, but I want to ask you a few questions. Can you answer them truthfully?"
"Just ask, Senior."
"School girl, you want to make a website for all ages that combines short videos with live streaming and social networking, right?"
"That's right." Xia Ruoming nodded.
"I won't ask you any more about the venue and personnel. Since you said you have your own company, you should have prepared for this. As for the server, it's not that I don't trust you, but you should also know that if this project wants to be popular and big, it will need more server resources than Shark TV. Don't you understand this?"
"Don't worry, senior. As long as you agree to join Qinghan Culture, the server problem will be solved within a week." Xia Ruoming said calmly. Although no one knew where Xia Ruoming's confidence came from, that inexplicable confidence seemed to inspire Li Wuya.
"Okay, maybe what you said is true. But you should also know that the current data traffic is not cheap. Although it should be coming down soon, during this period, the only thing that can really attract people to the Raspberry you mentioned is the PC side. Isn't it a bit too aggressive to force the development of an APP? Before the data traffic price drops, the money you have to spend on maintaining the APP side may be an astronomical figure. After all, you are still a student, and even if your family provides you with funds, it will inevitably be limited."
After thinking it over again and again, Li Wuya expressed his real concerns.
"It doesn't matter. I have money and can afford it." Xia Ruoming laughed, "As long as we make sure our app is the first of its kind to go online, money won't be a problem."
"Besides, I have a lot of other projects on hand, most of which are games. As long as they are completed, the money will continue to flow in."
Li Wuya was stunned. The school girl in front of him must be a genius. Not only did she design a video platform that coincided with his idea, but she also designed many games that she thought would be very popular. Moreover, most of these games were actually very expensive, and many people had lost all their money. At that time, there were not many rubbish mobile games like those in later generations, which were just a one-stop service for making money by changing their skins.
Seeing Li Wuya's shocked expression, Xia Ruoming did not show any proud or boastful expression, because her projects were not original. For example, the once popular card game was directly copied in China in later generations. Now that she was reborn, she might as well take the lead.
Moreover, stand-alone games can only sell for a while. The real money-makers are 2D Japanese Mahjong games that sell skins and accessories, or some real 3A masterpieces.
But those things require a lot of original paintings and models to support them. Now she is alone, so it is too troublesome to make them. In addition, the audience of 3A games is not as large as it will be in the future. She still remembers a person named Nojiri Shinta from K-Company, who made a 3A masterpiece and disappeared from the gaming circle directly...
Xia Ruoming then took out another document from her shoulder bag. Unlike the document Xiao Qinghan had compiled, this document seemed very simple and crude. It roughly recorded the gameplay of [Killing Circle Tower] and [White Book]. Unlike the raspberry project which was just a pie in the sky, the files of these two projects even recorded the completed underlying code and her hand-drawn drafts.
Li Wuya didn't know much about the game project, but from Xia Ruoming's description, he understood Xia Ruoming's extremely terrifying ambition. These highly innovative games were nothing more than consumables and paving stones, and their purpose was just to accumulate funds.
"What do you think? Senior, do you want to join forces with me?" Xia Ruoming extended her hand to Li Wuya again.
"You've said this much, do I have the right to refuse?" Li Wuya smiled bitterly, shook hands with Xia Ruoming, and refilled Xia Ruoming's and his own glasses with wine. It has been five years since graduation, and he also wanted to fulfill his dream, but it was always in vain.
How could he give up so easily when he finally got the chance? Xia Ruoming also promised that in addition to the annual salary written in the contract, he would also receive an additional 10% for the game project and 5% for the raspberry project, which was revenue, not profit.
After lightly clinking the glasses, he drank a glass of cold wine, which also represented the agreement between him and Xia Ruoming.
"Senior, when you are free, please call this number." Xia Ruoming handed over a piece of paper with Xiao Qinghan's work phone number written on it. "Just tell her your name and that Xia Ruoming introduced you. She will naturally understand. The company's location in Hangzhou has not been decided yet, so you are not in a hurry to go to work. When you are needed, Sister Qinghan will notify you. Your salary during this period will still be calculated for you."
"good."
Li Wuya put away the note silently, but his heart was not as calm as he appeared. He had almost given up his dream, but suddenly he saw hope again. The excitement mixed with the bitterness of the past was something only he could understand.
"However, there's no need for money. I, Li Wuya, am not a freeloader. You can calculate my salary when I officially start working." After saying this, Li Wuya waved his hand again. He didn't like out-of-pocket food, although he knew it was a sign of respect for him.
"Senior, this little thing..."
"Junior sister, don't you know my temper? If I say no, I won't take it. If you keep talking, I will be angry." After interrupting Xia Ruoming in time, Li Wuya still put on an unhappy expression. Seeing this, Xia Ruoming did not insist. He knew in his previous life that Li Wuya was an extremely principled person. The reason why he put forward this condition was just to win him over.
Before leaving, Li Wuya forced a bottle of 30-year-old singleton on Xia Ruoming. As expected, he preferred a drinking buddy who could understand and appreciate fine wine rather than a kind boss. Xia Ruoming declined several times, but finally accepted it reluctantly - in fact, Xia Ruoming was not very good at drinking whiskey at all, no matter whether she was in the upper class circle in her previous life or now.
After leaving the tavern, Xia Ruoming immediately called Xiao Qinghan to inform her about Li Wuya.
Not long after, an unknown caller rang on Xiao Qinghan's phone...
