207 Headhunting
The animation playback and rating website Xu Xing has already set a goal, the earliest domestic barrage website, Crystal Barrage Network and the barrage chicken forum.
Crystal Barrage Network was established in 2005. At that time, there was no barrage website in China. Now, Bilibili, which is considered a 2D homestead, will not be established until 2008, which is four years earlier.
When Crystal Barrage Network was established, Skynet had not yet appeared, so it still had the same operating method, buying servers to make content. Since the founders are newcomers and don’t have much financial strength at all, this caused Crystal to often get stuck and black screens at every turn. The audience often complained about the potato server. As a result, the founder couldn’t hold on and sold Crystal in the second year, the price was only more than 100,000 yuan.
Crystal's successor is also a second-dimensional person. He has not reformed Crystal, but has been using his own funds to support him. Originally, the successor was rich and it would be no big problem to support Crystal. However, in the porcelain country in 2008, the economic crisis hit his company and Crystal went bankrupt directly, and Crystal was sold to recover his blood.
The recipient is a speculator, and it happened to be the launch of Skynet. He packaged the Crystal Barrage Network and slapped it into the latest trend of Skynet, selling it for nearly three million.
Due to the emergence of Skynet, servers and other expenses have been saved. Skynet directly provides computing power and storage, and only needs to pay a usage fee every year. As a result, a large number of websites sprung up like mushrooms after a rain.
Bilibili was also established with the help of the emergence of Skynet.com. When the crystal management changes, it successfully received a large number of crystal refugees, becoming the most powerful 2D website in China.
In the next six years, B station became bigger and bigger, but Crystals were still selling them all over the place. Now they have changed seven or eight owners.
The failure of crystal sets off the success of B station. If Liuli Chairman Xu Yan said he wanted to sell B station, a lot of people would rush to buy it with money. Just one video website would have a valuation of 200 million.
The latest transaction price of Crystal Barrage Network, which appeared earlier in 2013, was only 20 million! Yes, you read it right, it was a ten times the difference.
The outside world does not know how much liquidity Xing Tian currently has, but only Xu Xing knows it clearly. The investment that the Entertainment Committee has invested in is not used, the broadcasting platform purchase fees, peripheral authorization fees, copyright derivative fees, etc. Adding up, Xu Xing has at least 80 million to use.
If Xing Tian lets go and let others invest, it would be more than enough to raise 200 million to 300 million in three days, but Xu Xing will not let go now. He doesn’t need to buy crystal directly at present, just buy some shares first.
The Bangji Forum is even more valuable. Although it is nominally the highest forum in the animation industry in China, except for some professionals, senior comic fans, and ordinary 2D groups, who would enter?
What Xu Xing was jealous of was not the forum that was at most several million, but the veterans in it. With them rating the popular science introductions of newcomers, newcomers can grow better.
Next I started searching for news about mobile games, which reminded him of a person, a former partner, and now I don’t know if there is any Rector who made the Rabbit Game.
Regardless of whether he has made mobile games or not, he is at least half an insider in the industry. It would be better to ask him about the current mobile game market.
"Are you there?"
"Here, Xu Da has any instructions. [Wicked laughter]"
Oh, I actually came back in seconds, it seems that I'm not very busy.
"I just want to ask how your game is doing?"
【Shock!】【Shock!】【Shock!】
Rector sent three monkey shocked emoticons in a row: "Xu Da, are you so unfaithful about that rabbit game? This has been released for almost half a year."
Xu Xing thought about it and was about to be making a Soul-Suppressing General selection battle at that time. All information from the outside world was blocked. When the animation was completed, the limelight of the rabbit mobile game was over, so he didn't know that the game had been released at all.
"How are the grades?"
"It's okay, but the domestic mobile game market is too chaotic. At first, I was fooled by my shopping mall, but now we are all operating it ourselves."
"What's the chaos?" Xu Xing asked tentatively.
After asking this, he opened Rector's clip and began to complain endlessly.
After listening for a long time, Xu Xing finally understood.
Today, the domestic mobile game market is extremely chaotic. Among them, there are more than a dozen mall apps that have heard of the name, most of which are not as good as the weather.
They didn't want to operate the platform well at all. They just used this as a tool for making money. After eating the game producer and eating the players, Rector released it on a well-known but unreliable platform. As a result, he was busy for a month. In the end, he interrupted the contract himself and compensated the platform to get the issuance right back.
Xu Xing simply mentioned that he wanted to build a mobile game platform, and Rector immediately agreed: "Xu Da, you are definitely trustworthy when you come to build a mobile game platform. When will it be launched, I will put that rabbit mobile game to you to publish it."
"No problem, Rector, do you think there is any ready-made mall to buy? It's much easier."
"Xu Da, it's not me that these malls are now darker than the other, and they can't even find any reputation. If you buy them, you have to wash away your previous infamous reputation. It's better to reorganize one."
Xu Xing thought for a while before saying, "Okay, then I'll consider it. Thank you Rector."
"It's okay, please ask me any questions."
After finishing the chat with Rector, I checked the information on Tianwang, and finally gave an attribution. The muddy waters in the mobile game market are all black from top to bottom.
Games cheat kids and investing, and the game malls take all the best. The most disgusting thing is that they are not illegal yet, and Skynet can't control it. For example, if you open an event to draw a skin, it's a 0.1% chance of drawing it. Others have not drawn it for a thousand times. You can't say that he cheats kids, but he is actually cheating kids.
When it was about to get off work, the headhunter company was finally able to connect. Open the TX and project it on Xu Xing's office wall. A middle-aged man with glasses and a suit and gentle appearance appeared.
"Mr. Xu, it is an honor to meet you. I am Ma Henglin, Ande Headhunting Company."
"Hello."
“Do you need two presidents with experience in website management based on the needs submitted by your secretary?”
"Yes, it's better for video and game websites."
“So what level of management do you need?”
“What are the levels?”
"There are three levels: B, A, and S. Level B belongs to the company's middle and senior management personnel, and the price is about 500,000 yuan. Level A is the company's general manager, and the lowest starts from one million yuan. Level S is the former president of those well-known companies. The price gap is the largest, and it is possible to have one million to tens of millions."
"Well~, then S-level."
Ma Henglin showed surprise on his face, and this commission was absolutely cool: "Okay, Mr. Xu, don't worry, the talents recommended by our company are absolutely worth the money."
After waiting for a while, Ma Henglin sent personnel information documents.
Chapter completed!
