Chapter 68 Hongmeng South Korea Company
The pain is because game development is constantly delayed, which consumes a lot of time and energy.
Happiness is the inner satisfaction of watching the games you develop become more and more perfect, just like raising a child and watching her become better and better. Nothing can replace it.
"I'm not afraid of delaying development, but in the end you must give me a quality game."
Liang Yuzhong nodded solemnly.
"Don't worry, if there is a bug, I won't be able to pass it."
patted his shoulder.
"Work hard. When the game is operational, I will celebrate your success."
"Yes."
——
Back in the office, Xu Liang found Xie Wen.
"Lao Xie, Jumang Studio will be able to complete the database upgrade and the localization of "Legend: Overlord" in two months at most. You have to set up a team within one month before the game is launched. A customer service center with at least 100 people.
The task of the customer service center is not only to answer calls, they must also have a certain understanding of our games, be able to answer questions in a timely manner, and even handle problems encountered by players while playing the game. Question.
So, preliminary training must be done.”
Xie Wen nodded, “There is no problem with training, but will one hundred people be too many?”
< br>
"Not much, maybe more will be added later."
"Then there is the marketing issue.
Establish a nationwide marketing network, and every province needs our branches."
< br>In fact, Xu Liang hopes to build a game payment system belonging to Hongmeng, but he doesn’t have enough money.
The research and development of Hongmeng Search, the research and development of "Tianxia", the Chinese version of "Legend", and the marketing of "Network Encyclopedia" have almost consumed the five million he invested.
Although New Dream's revenue has grown rapidly, the acquisitions of Atos and Yumed have exhausted its working capital, leaving only enough to maintain operations.
The acquisition of Yingke’s equity and the expansion of the second batch of eight New Dreams also require bank loans.
So, he is no longer able to expand the scale of Hongmeng.
Before "Legend: Overlord War" is released, he does not plan to make any more big moves.
As for the revenue from ‘Network Encyclopedia’, it should be used to purchase servers and retain a certain amount of surplus to deal with unexpected events.
After arranging the company's affairs and entrusting Xu Meng to Qiao Yuhui's care, Xu Liang boarded a plane flying to South Korea.
He didn't bring many people with him this time. The translator hired by a company, the accompanying secretary Zhou Weiqing, and the accompanying escort Huo Gang were gone.
Exit from the airport.
A middle-aged man with eyes in a suit quickly came up with a group of people.
“Mr. Xu.”
Xu Liang stepped forward and shook hands.
"Thank you for your hard work, Manager Qi."
Qi Xiaogang shook his head quickly. He was the director of the Administration Department of Hanhua. He was very aware of Xu Liang's acting style. After a polite word, he introduced the people behind him.
"This is Park Guanhao, now the general manager of Hongmeng Games South Korea Branch, responsible for the research and development of "Legend 2"."
"President, I am very happy to meet you. ”
Park Guanhao quickly stepped forward and stretched out his hands to hold Xu Rui's right hand, his face full of hospitality.
Now this legendary father is just a little guy who developed an unknown game.
Facing Xu Liang, who has capital in his hands, he is very submissive.
"President Park, I like the Legend developed by you very much, and I hope to see the official operation of "Legend 2" as soon as possible." Xu Liang said with a smile.
"President, please rest assured that in two months, "Legend 2" will launch a public beta test, and if it goes well, it will be officially launched before the end of the year." Park Guanhao said quickly.
Xu Liang smiled and nodded.
Qi Xiaogang turned to introduce the second person, a young man wearing a brown suit.
"This is Fei Yunxiang, the company's financial director." "Mr. Xu, hello."
Xu Liang nodded with a smile, and Atos changed its name to Hongmeng South Korea. , let Park Guanhao be the general manager, responsible for the research and development of "Legend 2" and "Millennium", but the key finance must be left to his own people.
Therefore, he asked Jiang Xiaoyang, who had stayed in South Korea to negotiate, to recruit a financial officer.
That is, Fei Yunxiang.
Master of Economics from Seoul National University. After graduation, he joined LG and was headhunted to the South Korean Legend Branch.
Most of the personnel directors and publicity directors behind are Chinese who studied in South Korea.
After a brief introduction, everyone got in the car and came to the office of the former Atos, now the headquarters of Hongmeng South Korea Branch, located on the fifth floor of Yucheng Building in Gangnam Business District, Seoul.
After looking at the familiar Hongmeng company logo at the front desk, Xu Liang walked in calmly.
Crashing….
Warm applause broke out.
Employees from all branches lined up in the office area to greet them.
Looking at them, Xu Liang felt a surge of heat in his heart.
Only then did he really feel it.
""Legend of Blood" is finally mine."
Looking at the entire history of Chinese game development, no game has a lifespan comparable to "Legend".
Not only did he put Lao Chen on the throne of the richest man.
Ten years later, "Wanwan Blue Moon" based on the legendary research and development has made Kaiying Company's monthly turnover exceed 200 million, and the market value has soared to nearly 50 billion Chinese coins.
According to the evaluation of professional organizations, the entire legendary IP has generated revenue of hundreds of billions of Huaxia coins in twenty years.
What’s more, Shanda, Yumede, and Atos are constantly fighting lawsuits and exploiting the “Legend” IP without any serious development relationship.
If Legend can be like "Elf", which was born at about the same time, and can continue to polish it, launch Legend 4, Legend 5, and a series of sequels that are above passing standards, and develop peripherals well, the value of this IP will be It will be higher.
This is a real gold mine that can be mined for twenty years or more.
With Legend, Xu Liang doesn’t have to worry about the company’s cash flow.
It also has the foundation for rapid expansion and even internationalization in the search field in the future.
After taking a slight breath, Xu Liang quickly stabilized his mind.
He had already prepared the opening remarks, but the language barrier weakened the effect a lot.
After saying a few words briefly, everyone dispersed.
"President Park, can you take me to see the "Legend of Blood" you developed?"
"Of course, please, President."
Park Guanhao led the way to the R&D Department and personally introduced the structure and gameplay of "Legend 2" to Xu Liang.
A long-standing but extremely familiar memory emerged from the bottom of my heart.
"Legend of Hot Blood" accompanied him through four years of college, leaving an indelible memory in the best years of his life.
Legend is not just a game, it is also the regretless youth of struggling in Sabak to slay the dragon and surf the Internet all night long.
After confirming that "Legend 2" was still the same "Legend of Hot Blood" and had not become completely different due to his intervention, Xu Liang felt relieved.
Arriving at the conference room, a group of senior executives sat down.
The lower left hand is Park Guanhao.
“How many people are there in the company now?”
“19 middle-level managers and above, 97 developers, planners, artists and special effects people, 13 cleaners, drivers and miscellaneous people, a total of six 129 people," said HR Director Ma Hui.
