Chapter 0708 too early
【hunter】: You will know who I am soon.
There is only one answer like this.
Yuhuo thought about it and made a not very difficult decision.
【juho】: Tell me the name of the game company, and I will contact you after dawn.
【hunter】:supercell.
【juho】: No? You want to find the supercell person, what are you looking for?
This time it was Li Rui's turn to be surprised.
【hunter】: Do you know their people?
【juho】: It’s more than just knowing... Supercell’s head Eka Pannanen is my old friend. He once worked in te and made more than thirty mobile games for our Saipan platform in Noji.
Li Rui really didn't expect this relationship. Finland is indeed a small country. Just like the town of Huaguo, the two people walking on the street might be relatives and friends.
【juho】: Are you sure you are looking for supercell instead of te? As far as I know, supercell has just been established, and there are no outstanding game works.
【hunter】: What I'm looking for is supercell, don't make any mistakes.
【juho】: I have Eka Pannanen on my whatsapp friend list. When he goes to work, I will contact you immediately.
【hunter】: Please.
After the two parties finished the call, Youhuo carefully read the chat record and said to himself: "From his English habits and grammar, he should be a Yazhou person..."
At nine a.m. Finnish time, Yuho called Pannanin.
"Hi, Eka, how are you doing recently?"
Pannaning yawned and said, "It's not good to be honest."
Yuhuo said: "I remember your web game has already been logged on Facebook. Isn't the response good enough?"
Pan Nanning smiled bitterly: "Facebook is no longer the Facebook of the past. The glorious period that can attract millions of users has passed. Our new game has been operating for a month, with only 500,000 users, and the willingness to pay is very low. Now we are discussing internally whether to give up this project and develop the next game."
"I'm so sorry for hearing this news." Yuhuo said.
"Do you have something to ask me for?" Pannaning asked, "If you want me to go back and create games for Noji, then forget it."
Yuhuo laughed: "Don't be so ruthless, okay? You have made a lot of money from Noji!"
"One time and another time, if Noji does not change, I think no one is willing to develop software and games for you." Pan Naning said very honestly.
"I didn't come for Noji." Yuhuo said, "I have one...well, I'm a friend, I hope I can talk to you. He is very interested in your game company."
"Oh, what kind of friend are you?" Pannaning asked.
"Uh... you'll know after chatting with him." Youhuo didn't know how to answer. You couldn't say he was a netizen who had mastered his privacy, right?
Yuhuo pushed Hunter's account to Pan Naning, and didn't know if what he did was right, so he was even more curious about what they would talk about.
At around 10 o'clock in the evening, Li Rui was studying the next work plan and received a new friend application on whatsapp.
【supercell·ilkka】: Hello, I am Eka Pannanen, the person in charge of supercell. Yuhuo said you want to talk to me?
【hunter】: Mr. Pan Nanning, I am very happy to contact you. Let me introduce myself. I am an investor from Huaguo. My name is Li Rui. I am very interested in the game "gunshine" released by your company on Facebook. I hope to have an in-depth understanding of the operation of your company and whether there are investment opportunities?
Pan Naning was a little surprised. Although he was still a little famous in the European gaming circle, whether it was the newly-started Supercell or the game "Gunshine", they were still in a state of low reputation. Some people in the distant Xiaguo had heard of their names and even came to him, which was a bit beyond his expectations.
【supercell·ilkka】: I’m very happy to meet you, Mr. Li. I wonder what you want to know specifically?
【hunter】: I want to know your company's operation plan for "gunshine", as well as subsequent development projects, and financing needs.
Pannaning smiled bitterly.
Since the response to "gunshine" did not meet expectations after it was launched, Supercell has made a decision to give up this project and focus on the production of new games.
The next development project is tentatively a multiplayer strategy confrontation game called "petsvsorcs". The details are still being planned and it will take at least three to six months to complete the initial development.
In addition, they also have two game projects in the prototype stage, "Tower" and "battlebuddies". If "Petsvsorcs" is not successful, they will immediately put these two projects on the agenda.
In terms of financing, when the company was first established, Pan Naning received an investment of 11 million magnesium through personal relationships. This money is a lot of money for a startup game company. Although "Gunshine" failed, the company has no financing needs for the time being.
Pan Naning thought about it and told Li Rui frankly about the current situation.
After hearing this, Li Rui knew that he had come too early.
Supercell just experienced its first failure, and its capital flow was relatively abundant and had not yet fallen to a low point. Naturally, it was not very interested in his investment.
About half a year later, the first few games developed by supercell failed one after another, and the funds were almost the same, which was the time to need help.
That is the best time to take action.
【hunter】: I’m sorry I can’t cooperate with you. I hope we can keep in touch. If Supercell has financial needs in the future, you can contact me at any time!
【supercell·ilkka】: I will.
After the chat, Pan Naning didn't take it seriously, turned around and forgot it behind his mind.
Chapter completed!
