Game development giant

The completion ceremony of the Mythology Building ended smoothly, and the media reporters got enough material, and several game media who have been cooperating with Mythology Group for years also got the opportunity to interview Li Yuanhang.

In the interview, Li Yuanhang revealed some "Yashan, Yashan! information, and also said that "Halo" was officially released in the giant hard box after the year, which made several reporters so happy that they reported to their bosses without waiting to get out of the Mythology building, and tried to send these news out at the first time.

After all the visitors left, Li Yuanhang asked two staff members to lead his family to the meeting room for a rest, while he himself went to the Mythology Building Conference Room No. 1, where the annual summary meeting of Mythology Group was held.

There are eight meeting rooms of various sizes in the Mythology Building, not counting the meeting rooms of each department that will be set up after each department moves in, and the No. 1 meeting room is the largest, best and most advanced one.

In the conference room of more than 300 square meters, in addition to a long row of conference tables in the middle, all the managers and department heads of Myth Group sat on both sides of the conference tables.

There was also a row of sofas against the wall on three sides of the conference room, with more than thirty people sitting on the sofas. These people were the second and third in command of various departments, and this meeting provided them with an opportunity to observe.

Li Yuanhang and Xu Lezhu sat together at the top of the conference room. Li Yuanhang said, "Today is the day our Mythology Building is completed, so while everyone is here today, let's start the year-end summary meeting a few days early.

Xu Lezhu smiled and said, "Mr. Li, in line with the principle of bitter before sweet, let's start with the entertainment division first."

Li Yuanhang nodded: "Yes."

Xu Lezhu named him, "General Zhou, you can speak first."

Zhou Ping, the head of Watermelon Chinese Net, stood up, bowed slightly in the direction of Li Yuanhang and Xu Lezhu, and said, "Mr. Li, Mr. Xu, as of this month, the total flow of Watermelon Chinese Net is 263 million, and after deducting all expenses, the net profit is negative 58 million, which is 34% lower than last year."

Perhaps see Li Yuanhang's face is not good, Zhou Ping can not wipe the forehead of cold sweat, hurriedly continue to say: "the reason why there will be no profit this year, and even negative profit growth, on the one hand, we spent a lot of money from other sites to dig up a few gods led by the god of wood leaves, the arrival of these online gods to give us a new 300,000 paid users. "

"In addition to this, we also follow the instructions of Mr. Li and Mr. Xu, for the authors to increase the welfare spending, subscriptions, props is the lowest thirty-seventh share of the whole network, we only take subscriptions and props of thirty percent. Also gave a lot of subsidies on full attendance, birthday, social security, according to the survey, now our website is already the most popular website for online authors."

"Although the expenses are great, but can be promising, total revenue has increased three times compared to the year before, paid users have doubled compared to the year before, the great god author has reached forty, the small god author has as many as two hundred, and there are many more contracted authors, as long as we maintain the investment this year, I believe it won't be long before the watermelon Chinese net can occupy half of the net writing world. "

"Well done, I will give you a big red envelope at this year's annual meeting, I hope you will continue to keep it up in the future."

Li Yuanhang is still very satisfied with Zhou Ping, smashing money is not terrible, what is terrible is smashing down but not even a splash, watermelon Chinese net although this year's loss of nearly 60 million, but the results are visible, he did not begrudge Zhou Ping rewards.

"Thank you, Mr. Li, thank you, Mr. Xu, I will work hard and live up to your expectations for me and Watermelon Chinese Net."

Zhou Ping heard Li Yuanhang's words and finally breathed a sigh of relief, after being acquired by Myth Group, Watermelon Chinese Net has continued to lose money every year, and this year's loss has even hit a new high, he was really a little worried about being told by Mr. Li to roll up his bunk and leave in a fit of anger.

He looked up at Li Yuanhang and said, "Mr. Li, I think the name Watermelon Chinese is not quite in line with the ecology of the Mythology Group, so I want to change the name to Qilin Chinese, what do you think?"

Li Yuanyang turned his head and looked at Xu Lezhu: "Xu, what do you think?"

Xu Lezhu said, "I think the name Qilin Chinese Network is quite good, quite in line with the mythical collective's naming habits."

Now almost all gamers are clear that the subsidiaries and departments under the Mythology Group are named after ancient mythological beasts or heroes, and such an out-of-place name for Watermelon Chinese Net made Zhou Ping feel that it was difficult for him to integrate into the Mythology Group's family, so he took the initiative to propose a name change.

Li Yuanhang smiled and said, "Let's change it then, the name Qilin Chinese Net is also quite catchy."

The next subsidiaries of the Entertainment Division also began to report, and like Watermelon Chinese Net, almost all of them were in a constant state of loss.

Mythology film and television loss of more than five million this year, the project is all the head office allocation, mythology music loss of more than seven million, e-sports team loss of less, but also still a loss of more than two million.

Entertainment Division is the only money is Mirage Technology, the operation of the Mirage game engine commercialization of the subsidiary, this year has occupied two-thirds of the commercial game engine share, the net profit of up to three and a half billion Huaxia yuan.

No wonder the former epic big brother sent the game at the drop of a hat, there is such a golden egg in the hands of the old hen, money or anything at all do not have to worry about spending it.

This year, in addition to the 50% profit paid to the head office, the net profit of Qinglong Studio still exceeded 500 million.

At present, Qinglong Studio has been developing a MOBA game according to Li Yuanhang's instructions for most of the year, the name of this game is "King's Glory", which is expected to be publicly tested in the middle of next year.

Wang Kai's Vermilion Bird Studio, even if it pays 70% of its profits to the head office, still has a profit profit of 600 million this year. I have to say that the overseas version of "Parent Simulator" and the mobile version of "My World" are really too profitable, and Vermilion Bird Studio can net several hundred million every year just by these two games.

Wang Kai is not satisfied with the status quo, intends to start making hand games after the year itself, not long ago also deadbeat in Li Yuanhang to take a hand game idea, the name of this hand game is called the "fifth personality".

In comparison, Zhang Yunhai's Xuanwu Studio is more general, most of the staff of this studio are more than thirty or forty years old personnel, the production is also "Plants vs.

Demeter Studio has spent nearly one billion Chinese Yuan in the past two years making Halo, and it's a good thing that Giant Hard gave nearly 400 million in time-limited exclusivity fees not long ago, which is considered to have recovered half of the R&D costs.

Other things such as motion capture studios, music studios, art studios are big money eaters, and general game companies can't really afford to feed such gold-devouring beasts.
