Chapter 249 I Have Too Much Money
“It’s been a year!”
After having lunch with Drogba in London, they agreed to announce it tomorrow and hold a press conference on WeChat the day after tomorrow. At the same time, Yang Huan also asked Drogba to cooperate in shooting a promotional video.
After that, Yang Huan returned to Southampton without stopping.
At this moment, he was sitting in the back seat of his Bentley, tilting his head and looking at the highway outside the window.
Long Wu was driving without answering, but he had become accustomed to Master Huan's occasional sighs.
"I still remember that a year ago, the four of us came to Europe alone. We had no goals and didn't know what to do."
Talking about what happened back then, Yang Huan still finds it very funny.
"I came to England with nothing. Time flies!"
Long Wu was still driving carefully, but he smiled after hearing this.
The experiences of the past year have undoubtedly been amazing for him.
Standing at this moment, looking back at the scene when I first came to Europe a year ago and my state of mind at that time, I can't help but find that people have changed so much.
About this time a year ago, along the same road and in the same direction, he headed south to Southampton.
How could Yang Huan at that time have imagined that he would be as successful as he is today?
Today, Yang Huan has achieved some success.
WeChat is a very successful company. Apart from its 200 million users in China, it has nearly 400 million users worldwide, with over 100 million active users every day and nearly 300 million active users per month.
Moreover, as WeChat began to enter the gaming field and launched the Tiantian series, it has begun to find a self-sufficient business route, especially the game Tiantian Shooting Airplane, which has shown the potential to enter Apple's revenue list.
Once WeChat finds a profit model, its external valuation will definitely be higher.
Yang Huan was not interested in knowing how high it was exactly, because he had never considered introducing venture capital.
As for going public, we’ll talk about it later when there’s a chance.
The game company is still the most profitable company under Yang Huan.
It has launched four games, namely Cut the Rope, Temple Run, Candy Crush Saga and Puzzle & Dragons. The first three of them are in the top three of Apple's revenue list, with Temple Run ranking first, Candy Crush Saga ranking second, and Cut the Rope ranking third.
Puzzle & Dragons is also catching up and is slowly accumulating strength.
The game analysis team has also figured out that this game is a bit slow to warm up, but the loyalty is very high and users have the strongest desire to pay. With gradual accumulation, there is a good chance that it will make it onto the list.
The game company now earns more than 5 million pounds a day, and after deducting expenses and salary and bonuses every month, the net profit is as high as 100 million pounds. This is based on Yang Huan's insistence on generous bonuses and benefits.
If Master Huan was a little more stingy, he could at least earn an extra 200 to 300 million pounds.
Think about it, there are less than a hundred people in the game company in total, so how good must the benefits be!
There is also the Wrap gift card company, which has reached cooperation agreements with many chain enterprises, including large companies such as Walmart. Its development momentum is also very strong. It has more than 20 million users and is valued by the outside world at more than 200 million pounds.
And then there is Miracle Entertainment.
The second divine song "Fox's Howl" has swept all the major charts in the music industry since it defeated Justin Bieber in the United States and almost made the latter lose face. It has been invincible.
It took the number one spot on the US Billboard chart in the second week, squeezing out Yoona's single "iknewyouweretrouble". Unfortunately, Yoona's single did not perform badly, with an astonishing number of downloads and a very good response.
But it just feels like I was born at the wrong time.
Who made her come across this divine song?
Coincidentally, another contracted artist of Miracle Entertainment, Maki Horikita, also became very popular in Japan because she starred in a prime-time advertisement for WeChat and a TV series with very high ratings.
Today, Miracle Entertainment is Yang Huan’s second largest source of money.
Apart from anything else, Psy and Yoona have been offered a ton of advertisements in less than a month since their second hit song came out. Psy has accepted thirteen and is in talks for seven more.
Lin Yoona has accepted twenty-one offers and is in talks for more than a dozen, almost half of which are advertisements from South Korea.
These are enough to make Miracle Entertainment a fortune, at least over 100 million pounds.
Yang Huan now has a wealthy family and a great fortune, but his heart is even bigger!
At the very least, you have to do something different in this life.
Even if we cannot make everyone in the world admire him, at least we must let them all know that there was a person named Yang Huan who had such an experience in this world!
Thinking of this, Yang Huan decided to try something big.
…………
…………
"Master Huan!"
"Good afternoon, Master Huan!"
"Well, ok, good afternoon everyone!"
As soon as Yang Huan walked into the office of WeChat company, he was greeted by the employees.
He has become accustomed to this.
"Today's afternoon tea is my treat, Wangjiang Pavilion, order whatever you want!"
As soon as Yang Huan finished speaking, the entire office building suddenly cheered.
Soon, people from several floors above and below also cheered.
"Master Huan is very generous, he treats us to a meal every time we come!"
"It's so addictive, Master Huan didn't say anything."
"It's great to work under Master Huan. Not only is the salary high, but the bonus is also higher than others, and he often treats us to dinner. Where can I find such a boss?"
"Yes, working for Master Huan is worth it no matter how hard or tiring it is!"
Yang Huan walked into the conference room amid the employees' praises.
Zhu Liangcheng, Wang Lin, Andres Ihahn and other company executives immediately gathered around.
The way these guys looked at Yang Huan...
How to say it?
With a bit of resentment.
Especially Zhu Liangcheng, who, with the support of Master Huan, went back to China to participate in If You Are the One. Relying on Master Huan's reputation, he found a girl on If You Are the One, and now he is in perfect harmony with her.
As a result, due to a phone call from Master Huan, he had to leave his new love's warm bed.
Since it was a meeting of the entire management team, it naturally included Zhang Ning, Zhuang Zicheng, Palmer Luckey and others.
These people who were far away in China all participated in the meeting via video link.
"Are all here?" Yang Huan sat down and looked to the left.
Zhu Liangcheng looked around, including Zhang Ning, Zhuang Zicheng and Palmer Luckey on the three screens, and nodded.
"The people you requested to be notified are all here, Master Huan."
Yang Huan also glanced at everyone and nodded, "Let's get started!"
Everyone immediately focused.
Young Master Huan suddenly called a meeting at this time, there must be something important.
"I called everyone here today mainly because I ran into a problem!"
As soon as Yang Huan finished speaking, everyone in the audience was a little surprised, and they immediately started whispering and discussing.
Only Zhang Ning, who knew Yang Huan best, rolled his eyes at him without any temper and looked at him with a half-smile.
Sure enough, Yang Huan’s next sentence made everyone burst into laughter.
"Because I found that I had too much money and I didn't know how to spend it!"
The whole audience burst into laughter.
Especially since Master Huan said such a funny thing in such a serious manner, it was quite humorous.
"Master Huan, you have so much money, why don't you give some to us!"
"Yes, give us a promotion and a raise!"
"Or, just buy us each a house in Longhai!"
Yang Huan spread his hands and shook his head helplessly: "Well, even if I buy each of you a house in Longhai and double your salary, I still have more money!"
Everyone at the scene burst into laughter again. This Young Master Huan is really so humorous, isn’t he?
There are actually people in this world who think they have too much money.
"I now earn at least 100 million pounds a month, and I have no way to spend it. Can you understand my painful feelings at this moment?"
Yang Huan's rhetorical question made everyone present burst into laughter again.
Even Wang Lin was laughing so ungracefully that he kept slapping the table.
I don’t know how many people laughed so hard that their stomachs hurt.
Yang Huan wondered if these guys had problems with their brains. Seriously speaking, were they really that funny?
Can you still speak properly?
Do you still want to stay with me and continue having fun?
After everyone laughed, they soon quieted down again.
"I'm buying players, and a fool is rushing to pay me. I can't refuse, right?"
Everyone nodded.
It’s not good to refuse such things, it can easily hurt others.
"I want to build a training base and do some research. Someone is rushing to help me build it. I can't refuse, right?"
Everyone nodded again.
Too many rejections will hurt people physically and mentally.
"Later, I thought, let's get into business, so I bought Aston Martin, Sunseeker Yachts and Château Calon. But I found out that the speed at which I spent money in business was not as fast as the speed at which I made money!"
"You say, this is depressing, isn't it?"
Everyone immediately tried hard to hold back their laughter, not daring to laugh out loud.
They all knew that Young Master Huan was joking.
However, I guess there is some worry about having too much money.
When you have a certain amount of money and no longer need it, you will find that spending the money is very troublesome.
Apple has a lot of cash, but can it spend it all?
With Master Huan making money now, you could spend one million pounds a day and still not be able to spend it all.
"Master Huan, it seems you still owe Mr. Yang a lot of money." Zhang Ning reminded with a smile.
At the beginning, Yang Huan borrowed a lot of money from his family.
If you calculate each and every one of these clearly, you won't have this kind of trouble.
"It was agreed to be a three-year interest-free loan. I'm paying it back now. Do you think I'm mentally ill?"
Yang laughed and cursed.
Everyone smiled.
Won’t Mr. Yang’s money still belong to Young Master Huan in the future?
"In the past period of time, I found something very interesting."
Everyone looked at Yang Huan.
“I’ve noticed that everyone is interested in virtual reality headsets and technology.”
Almost all the people present were big names in the high-tech field, and they all thought it was normal.
Virtual reality has been very popular for a long time.
But there has never been a product that is eye-catching.
Today, WeChat’s virtual reality helmet has been produced. It is quite eye-catching and the technology is mature, so naturally everyone is interested in it.
"Then I thought, what if we added this thing to our WeChat?"
As soon as Yang Huan said this, Chief Technology Officer Wang Lin slammed the table hard on the spot.
"Oh, why didn't I think of that?"
Everyone present was shocked by him.
Is this guy sick?
Are you so surprised?
"We can definitely set up some virtual chat scenes, allowing users to enter these scenes through virtual reality helmets to chat and achieve face-to-face communication. These scenes can be set by us or by the users themselves."
Yang Huan nodded repeatedly, "Can it be realized?"
Wang Lin and Zhu Liangcheng nodded continuously, "It can be done. It's not difficult!"
"Then do it."
After Yang Huan finished speaking, he turned to look at Andres Ihahn without caring about the expressions of Wang Lin and Zhu Liangcheng.
“And you guys, who are working with so many retail chains, how would you go about introducing virtual reality technology?”
Without waiting for the Swede to answer, Yang Huan had already given the answer himself.
"It creates a virtual retail store where users can wear a helmet and enter the store to pick out any item they like and pay for it, providing users with the most realistic shopping experience. These chain retail companies can save a lot of operating costs."
Andres Ihan kept nodding his head, he was a little stunned by what he heard.
Just like buying clothes, you don’t need to worry about whether they will fit when shopping online. Just try them on virtually!
This future, this prospect, is so beautiful.
It will completely change the existing retail landscape and the online shopping experience.
"As for your gaming department, the use of virtual reality technology will completely change the entire game development landscape. This is universally recognized. I'm not saying that you should develop such a game right now, but you must be prepared in advance."
Several heads of the gaming department also nodded frequently.
but……
"Master Huan, I have a question!"
