Losing Money to Be a Tycoon

Chapter 697: Investing in Cherry Studios (Moon Tickets!

Liang Qingfan stunned.

Who buys houses that have no potential for appreciation?

Are you saying...

General Pei is actually buying a popular building in downtown?

The popular buildings were fired at a high price, so there was less room to go up, so to speak, the potential for appreciation was a little lower, and there seemed to be no problem.

Liang Qingfan instantly realized and nodded quickly: “No problem, President Bae! ”

He also apparently noticed that Bae's attitude had changed dramatically in the area of "buying a building”.

Previously, I picked up garbage vigorously. Bad houses, isolated buildings, commercial buildings, all bought.

Now, we have to buy buildings that have little potential for appreciation, which are popular in some downtown areas.

Why is that?

Liang Qingfan combined with Lazy Apartment 2.0 model speculation, this should be a strategic transformation.

The garbage collection was started primarily to highlight the core philosophy of the lazy apartment.

For example, the slothful apartment promotional film, the two buildings in the Binhu district have been completely remodeled from the unquestioned garbage building to become particularly livable, which is very topical and attracts a lot of attention.

Now that attention has been paid to lazy apartments, we need to continue to explore and build higher brand values.

Therefore, Liang Qingfan raised his hands to support President Pei's idea.

When he saw a "heroic look” on Liang's light fan face, Pei Huan suddenly had no reason.

But when I think about it, it's useless to keep picking up garbage. It's going to crazily increase the value, and it's going to be pitted again when we settle.

Two harms take their rights lightly, Pei Huan thought for half a day, or decided to stick to the current idea.

Take a look at Lazy Apartment 2.0 mode first, if not, then think of other ways.

Friday, 21 October.

Emperor, Cherry Studio.

“Hurry up, hurry up and pack up your workstations. Don't make a bad impression. ”

A tall, skinny young man who looks less than thirty years old picks up his mess and piles up all kinds of books and greets the other three sitting beside him.

The other three looked younger than him, with one boy holding a round size, looking a little stubborn, the other slightly fat, and a sister with glasses and a ponytail.

In Teito, there are many small independent gaming studios like this.

Three or four people, find an incubation space to work in, and you can develop an independent game.

The tall, thin young man is the owner and producer of Cherry Studio called Jiang Fan.

The seemingly shy boy, Yang Liang, is the main designer of the game, and the slightly fat boy and the girl with the ponytail are the numerical designer and art director of the game, respectively.

And everyone actually works as a functional designer, and everyone uses the game editor to make games.

The girl is the art director, but she will only draw few art resources herself, most of the time communicating with people on the resource station, raising needs, and accepting art resources.

Such a small team of four is currently the standard team of independent game studios in the country.

If there are fewer people, the development cycle will be longer, and it is difficult to guarantee quality and pure luck; but if there are more people, they may not be able to afford it.

All play independent games, the money must be overstretched, and a dime has to be broken in half.

The cost of developing a stand-alone game still exists even when there are official editors and official platforms to bridge art.

Rent can be paid, personnel salaries can be paid, and art resources can be bought.

Although the official platform has various preferential policies for independent game producers, if the game cannot be sold, any preferential policies are bullshit and all inputs will still be homeless.

Looks like some of the master designers Yang Liang is reluctant to clean up: “Brother Fan, why don't you stop cleaning up, I don't think it's going to work. Several investors came to ask questions, asked for half a day, and no one was really willing to invest in this risk. ”

“After all, independent games are too likely to fail to vote. ”

“At this time, it would be better to change two more bugs. ”

Jiang Fan was also helpless: “There is no way, Liangzi. The funding of the studio is too bad right now. If no one helps us, we can last another month at most. We won't even be able to pay our salaries by then. I can't let you all generate electricity for love. Try again. ”

“I asked a few friends in the industry to verify that President Qiu is indeed a somewhat famous figure in the industry today, and he did contact several gaming companies, even though he didn't vote, at least to show that he had this idea. ”

Yang Liang continued to pack his things: “Really? So, Brother Fan, do you think we could get an investment? ”

Jiang Fan shook his head: “I don't know about that either. ”

“This President Qiu used to play Krypton, but I don't know why. Since last week, he has suddenly been in frequent contact with domestic single-player gaming companies, especially independent gaming studios like ours. Even if I know of them in Didu, we have already talked about three. ”

“It is said that he seems to be investing exclusively in single-machine games and stand-alone games in the country. For us, the chances of being invested are much greater than for other investment firms. ”

“None of the three companies I've heard of, however, received any investment. ”

“The first two players didn't vote understandably, it seemed too unreliable, but the third player was very reliable, the game shelf had been finished, and the game content was good, just waiting for an effort to be made to make the final sale, and President Qiu didn't vote. ”

“It's not very clear what his standards are. ”

“But anyway, this is a good opportunity for us to try to seize it. ”

Four people in the studio hurried up to tidy up the workstation a little bit and waited for the arrival of this President Qiu.

Jiang Fan looked at the time on the phone with some anxiety.

Two minutes to 2 pm, Jiang Fan's phone rang.

Jiang Fan hastily picked up: “President Qiu, are you here? Wait a minute, I'll pick you up downstairs! ”

Before Jiang Fan left, he gave people a look. Everyone immediately sat correctly at the top of the workstation and began to work seriously, waiting for President Qiu to arrive.

A few minutes later, Jiang Fan led Qiu Hong to the Cherry Studio office area.

Ever since President Pei accepted the assignment of "Poor Way Plan”, Qiu Hung simply settled his own personal affairs and went straight to Didu.

Emperor Du, Demon Du, and Yangcheng are all places where gaming companies gather, so Qiu Hong chose Emperor as his first stop.

Although Qiu Hong's mission is to invest in single-machine gaming companies and independent gaming studios across the country, he does not have to fly between cities every day.

It is the most efficient way to stay in Didu for the last month, visit a company every day, wait until most of Didu's companies have been screened before switching to the next city.

Qiu Hong had visited five companies before, but had invested only one.

Because there are three companies that at first glance are very unreliable small workshops, the owners themselves do not know the game very well, a little insider to guide the insider, and Qiu Hong feels that they have a tendency to cheat investors' money.

President Bai said that he would not vote if he was unreliable.

There is a company that is good in all aspects and the game is very complete. Qiu Hong tried it and felt that there is a great chance of success.

But President Pei also said that it was too reliable to vote.

So, only one of them got the investment of Qiu Hong's "Poor Way Plan”.

Today, Qiu Hong came to the Cherry Studio to continue his study.

In fact, his job is the easiest and the least stressful. Previously, when I was a game producer, I had to hang my head to think about how to play the game. I was afraid that I would make a mistake and bury the whole project, but now I don't need it. Just look at the company's situation and decide whether to invest or not and it's over.

Besides, the bonuses you get now have nothing to do with whether or not your investment is making money. The more bonuses you invest, the better things you can find.

Without stress, you will not suffer loss, and you will be more sensible and sober when making decisions.

Jiang Fan moved a chair from the side to Qiu Hung, picked up a cup of hot water from the water dispenser next to him, and then started introducing the basics of the cherry studio.

Qiu Hong drinks water and listens silently.

According to Jiang Fan, the establishment of a cherry studio is basically a standard “power with love” story.

Jiang Fan was originally working in a law firm, and the profession had nothing to do with the game. Playing games began simply because official platforms and editors existed, dramatically lowering the threshold for game making, giving him the idea of trying out a game after work.

Jiang Fan usually works very slowly and can only spend an hour each day making games with the official editor.

As a result, he had spent two years defending himself with a lawyer for a written adventure game on the subject, and it turned out to be well received after it went live.

Although the sales volume is not very high, after all, independent games do not have a lot of cost, the sales of five yuan a piece sold nearly 200,000 copies, including various preferential policies for independent games on official platforms, earned more than 600,000.

Therefore, Jiang Fan made a very important decision in his life, abandoned the work of a lawyer and decided to set up a cherry studio to play independent games full-time.

The other three employees were also found by Jiang Fan from his own group of players, after simple exchanges and interviews. The three of them also voluntarily gave up their previous jobs and came to the cherry studio to collect wages that would only guarantee a basic life.

It's not Jiang Fanmen. The key is to pay more than six hundred thousand yuan in total. It also has to pay for the rental of office space and the purchase of art resources. There is really no way to pay more money.

This game, now called the Worker Survival Manual, is much bigger than the one that Jiang Fan developed before, but it is also because the game exceeds Jiang Fan's control, so the Cherry Studio is short of money.

In more than a month, wages may not even be paid, and games are not yet available at all.
