My Wealth is like a Deep Sea

175 Various reasons

But he vaguely remembered that after this game came out, the player was vomiting it was completely the "Break Through the World" version of the fight, still the same mechanism, the same mode, and even the same gameplay, but NPC and map characters, change Became the map and characters in the novel of Dou Qi.

Even the copy of the game is the mode of "Breaking Through the World", and even some of the maps of the copy have not been changed, and they are directly copied and pasted into the game of "Dou Qi".

As the general manager of the company, Wang Tao actually has a simple idea, that is, he wants to replicate the success of "Breaking Through the World".

In fact, he really succeeded.

Although many players spit out the "Tou Qi" online game is a remake of "Break Through the World", but the first month of online, the number of online users exceeded 800,000.

In those days when computers had just become popular, how could such a high number of people online be said that Wang Tao and Wan You were unsuccessful?

Therefore, three months after the game was launched, Wanyou successfully listed on the Nasdaq.

Among the materials in Yang Long's hand, there is also a picture taken by Wang Tao and Sohu CEO Zhang Yang when they were ringing the bell on the Nasdaq. Both of them were in their early 30s, and they looked like a young man in a very expressive manner.

At this time, Wang Tao is no longer just the general manager, but officially became the CEO of Wanyou Technology. At the same time, because of the joining of Sanyun, Wang Tao also serves as the vice president of Sanyun Group.

Sanyun was looking for a transformation in the game industry, and Wanyou became its first step, so Wang Tao and Wanyou were given such high care.

It is also hoped that with the accurate eyes of Wang Tao, an industry insider, he will look for more investment opportunities.

Like those gaming companies that later acquired or bought shares, Sanyun did not give such favorable conditions.

Perhaps it's also because he planted a heel here in Wang Tao.

After Wang Tao joined Sanyun, several of the acquired companies went bankrupt in less than a year, and the games disappeared because they couldn't make ends meet.

As of 13 years ago, Sanyun, Wanyou and Sohu are still making money by "Breaking Through the World" and "Fighting Sky".

Other newly developed games have collapsed and even died before they were even released.

This has a lot to do with the strategy decided by Wang Tao.

After he succeeded in copying "Breakthrough" in "Dou Qi", he thought it was a way to eat for a lifetime.

Therefore, the direct purchase of hot Internet IP was opened later. While the Internet is not over and the heat is high, the skin-changing end game is launched directly.

Later, it was found that the cost of the end game is too high, so it was directly loaded into the page and changed to a page game, which is equivalent to testing the water. If the page game is successful, then consider making the end game.

From the listing in 2009 to 14 years, Wang Tao spent nearly 500 million R&D expenses, but under his leadership, almost no successful game has been made.

After a series of blows, Wang Tao was under great psychological pressure and began to become restless, suffering and suffering. From this time on, the gaming industry tycoon, devoted himself into the embrace of theology, proposed a delisting directly to the Sanyun Group The company's business was completely handed over to the management, and the company's research and development was stopped. After the delisting, it has been relying on the old capital and survived to today.

Seeing this, Yang Long frowned more tightly: "This Wang Tao is still in the clouds?"

"Correct!"

Yun Qi said, "In fact, this is related to the agreements he signed before to develop new games. These agreements have the nature of gambling. All his research and development failed, and he did not create the specified profits for the group according to the agreement, so he In recent years, he has been holding a minimum wage, which is no different from working as a white worker. At most, he has the management rights of Wanyou Technology. In this case, he cannot resign if he wants to resign, otherwise according to the agreement, he must compensate 500 million. According to his current situation, his R&D expenses will definitely become Lao Lai."

Although it sounds cruel, it is all blamed.

And the research and development cost is 500 million, but a bunch of garbage page games have been developed. Who knows where the money is?

Maybe Wang Tao would have been full of money for a long time, earning a lot of money, but he was not willing to spit it out and wasted in this position.

Thinking of this possibility, Yang Long immediately told Yun Qi and asked: "Do you think there is such a possibility?"

"Of course!"

Yun Qi thought for a while, "Actually, he spent 80 million when he was developing "Dou Qi". Although I don't play the game, since this game is a skin change, I think the development cost should not be so high? Moreover, I checked that Wan You bought the adaptation rights of the novel "Dou Qi", and it only cost 5 million."

"Is there a list of all expenditures for the development of new games after Sanyun enters?"

"There should be scattered clouds of finance there!"

"Come and see!"

Yang Long said, "Go to Wanyou for a turn today and see the situation!"

The two set off immediately.

Wanyou Technology's address is located in Zhabei District, a small science and technology park developed by Zhengfu.

The rent per square meter here is not even one-thirtieth of Lujiazui.

It can be seen how stretched Wan Wan is now.

Yang Long came over in a low-key manner and did not alarm anyone, including Wang Tao, the current CEO of Wanyou.

Standing at the door, Yang Long discovered that Wan You's current situation was more sad than he had imagined.

In the whole building, they only occupied an office of less than 200 square meters. The door was opened unnecessarily. Although there was an access control system, it was completely furnished.

As soon as I entered the door, I saw that there was no personal image in the reception area at the door, and the computer in the counter was not opened. The cabinet was cluttered with couriers, empty fast-food boxes, used plastic bags, and the disassembled A4. The paper seemed very depressed and messy.

Yang Long stood in front of the counter for five full minutes. Although his face was expressionless, the more he looked, the more he felt cold.

"Mr. Yang..."

Yun Qi couldn't help but say, "I'm afraid the company's front desk can't wait, otherwise we can go directly!"

"Wait!"

Yang Long saw a stack of printed brochures on the counter, 16-fold in size, the cover was completely white, reached for a copy, and saw three words written on it-Heyishe.

Yang Long didn't think much about this, because he knew that many bigwigs believed in social education. For example, Ma Yun was particularly keen on mysticism, wandering between Buddhism, Taoism, Confucianism, Buddhism, and worshipping many masters.

With so many brochures in front of the Union, it should be that someone from this company believes this. Yang Long couldn't help but have a huge curiosity, put down the manual and waved: "Go, take a look inside!"

Bypassing the photo wall, I saw the basic appearance of the company directly.

However, the scene in front of him surprised Yang Long.

More than a dozen employees sat cross-legged on the Po/Tuan, meditating with closed eyes, not wearing the formal clothes that ordinary office workers should wear, but very loose white clothes, similar to the combination of ancient gowns and taekwondo suits.

These people closed their eyes one by one, and looked like they were asleep, but their body was quite straight, and they were not sitting on the meditator just like the kind of obsession on TV.

No one seemed to hear Yang Long and Yun Qi coming in.

"what happened?"

Yang Long looked at Yun Qi.

She shook her head helplessly, obviously not knowing what happened.

"take a photo of!"

"Should I start shooting from outside the company? Keep shooting in?"

Yang Long nodded and agreed, Yun Qi took the phone and walked outside.

It was the two people who normally talked that did not wake up these people, it seems that they might have fallen asleep.

Yang Long stared at them for a long time, and then looked around.
