You call this entrepreneurship?

Chapter 190 This is still a high-end game
"Can you achieve a profit of 500 million yuan a year by relying on online games?" Xiong Xiaoge asked angrily, "Are you deceiving us venture capital investors as fools?"

Qin Shaoyan replied unhurriedly: "Nowadays, many Internet companies have opened up online game business. Sina, NetEase, and Sohu have all established specialized game business departments."

"NetEase, in particular, has a market value of US$80 billion thanks to the outstanding performance of Fantasy Westward Journey."

Xiong Xiaoge retorted unceremoniously: "There is only one NetEase. As far as I know, other companies have not performed well. The game business is in a mess."

"This is the pain in the early stages of industry development, and paying tuition is an unavoidable process." Qin Shaoyan said lightly, "The road is tortuous, but the future is bright."

Xiong Xiaoge laughed angrily, "You think I don't understand the game industry, and you're just talking nonsense to me, right?"

"I have specifically consulted industry professionals. The success rate of game projects is very low. Can you give other examples besides Fantasy Westward Journey?"

Qin Shaoyan sneered and said, "If there is anyone in the gaming industry who is more professional than me, please call him over and tell me in person."

Xiong Xiaoge was choked and speechless. He wanted to refute, but he didn't know how.

Especially when he looked up and saw the cabinet behind Qin Shaoyan, which contained two gold keyboards and trophies.

"Of course, in line with the attitude of being responsible to investors, our campus network cannot just watch the show and do nothing." Qin Shaoyan said seriously, "Our next plan is that you will fight yours and I will fight mine."

The localization of Internet companies is indeed an important consideration. Thinking of this, Xiong Xiaoge took a sip of tea.

Campus Network had a very clear plan from the beginning, complete business logic, and clear goal positioning, which was completely different from those ignorant entrepreneurs.

"You told me that you were going to make it difficult for the popular stars of Dazhong.com, and they have started to prepare. What are you going to do?"

Qin Shaoyan immediately asked, "Mr. Xiong, I have to touch my conscience and tell you that none of the plans I told you have been realized."

"You have to understand my good intentions."

Qin Shaoyan sneered, "Just because others can't do it doesn't mean I can't do it."

"What kind of practical things are plans?" Xiong Xiaoge couldn't stand it anymore, "A plan that can be realized is a plan, and a plan that cannot be realized is called a painting."

"For example, Nasdaq-listed portals such as Sina, Sohu, and NetEase, Penguin are also actively developing gaming businesses because they have not figured out a good business model themselves."

Xiong Xiaoge agreed with Qin Shaoyan's words. The game business can indeed bring good cash flow.

Xiong Xiaoge took a breath and praised sincerely: "Although Mr. Qin is young, he is very sophisticated in his thinking."

Take Tupu.com as an example. It is doing well in the United States but cannot survive even a week in China.

"School is a place for learning." Qin Shaoyan said in an understatement. "If there is a talent show in school, just the saliva of parents and some education experts can drown Dazhong.com."

Qin Shaoyan continued: "In the past, Internet companies could only engage in advertising and value-added services, and their income was quite limited. Before developing a new business model, engaging in the game business was a last resort."

"After Dazhong.com's draft is suspended, our campus network will launch our draft activities."

“I compared NetEase’s Fantasy Westward Journey because this project represents the upper limit of game quality in the current Chinese market, and it does not mean it is my upper limit.”

Xiong Xiaoge thought for a while, and what Qin Shaoyan said did make sense.

"Poof!" Xiong Xiaoge spurted out all the tea he had just drank.

“Am I not as good as those entrepreneurs who only speak PPT?”

Xiong Xiaoge said angrily: "What do you say to Dazhong.com?"

This is also an important reason why Xiong Xiaoge is optimistic about Qin Shaoyan. He can clearly explain the business plan to the venture capital.

"China's online game market is growing rapidly, and its scale is constantly expanding."

Although the money is not much, this is only the early stage and there is a lot of room for improvement in the future.

"When Yang Botao copied this event, he did not take into account the different national conditions of China and the United States. What can be done in the United States will not work in China."

In this era when the Internet has not yet profoundly affected the real economy, this online plus offline model is more favored by Xiong Xiaoge.

"Thank you, Mr. Xiong, for the compliment." Qin Shaoyan said calmly, "I planned the Campus Popular Star event and achieved very good results on Facebook."

"Especially after it creates a big public opinion, Dazhong.com's draft will be directly stopped by the administrative department, and all their early investment will be in vain."

The e-commerce cooperation between Campus Network and Jingdong Mall is indeed a very good example, and the college student station run by Qin Shaoyan has already begun to make money based on feedback from the several outlets it has laid.

Although this guy may be laundering money by making games, his game design capabilities are still recognized as very strong in the game industry.

"Am I not discussing business prospects with you?" Qin Shaoyan asked in surprise, "Isn't this practical enough?"

"After the campus network business is fully launched, the valuation cannot be measured by 200 billion." Qin Shaoyan chuckled, "I am now locking in a valuation of 200 billion in advance. This is all for your own good, Mr. Xiong."

Good shit for me!
Xiong Xiaoge said expressionlessly: "It's useless what you say. I want to see the actual things."

Places such as Europe and the United States, where the game industry is developed, all recognize Qin Shaoyan's ability. Xiong Xiaoge really cannot say that the other party is not good without conscience.

Qin Shaoyan smiled and said, "I don't need to do anything at all."

"The campus network is different. We already have an e-commerce business and it is doing quite well. The gaming business is just a supplement."

"The next focus is on the new business model of college student station. The business map of the campus network is clear, and multiple models are running in parallel."

"High-end business wars often use the simplest methods. Top-level business wars mean that you don't have to do anything and just wait for your opponent to commit suicide."

Xiong Xiaoge nodded. In the early days of China's Internet, they all copied the American Internet model.

Some survived successfully, and some died after copying. One of the big reasons was that they did not consider the national conditions.

"Seek death?" Xiong Xiaoge frowned, not understanding what Qin Shaoyan meant for a while.

"The cash flow generated by the revenue from the game industry is a very high-quality asset for companies. It is an important strategy for Internet companies to develop game business."

"Qin Shaoyan, what are you going to do?!" Xiong Xiaoge asked in shock and anger.

He really couldn't figure out Qin Shaoyan's crazy thoughts.

One moment, he was criticizing Dazhong.com for not considering the national conditions and engaging in a talent show. The next moment, he said that the campus network should hold a talent show of its own.

Qin Shaoyan replied calmly: "Of course it is for the further development of the campus network."

"Didn't you say that there can't be a talent show in school?" Xiong Xiaoge asked angrily.

"The draft is different from the talent show." Qin Shaoyan said with a smile, "Take a look at the content of Dazhong.com's talent show."

"Let's take a look at what is planned for our campus network?"

Xiong Xiaoge asked subconsciously: "What is it?"

"I'm sorry, I can't tell you." Qin Shaoyan said with a smile. Xiong Xiaoge was anxious, "I am a shareholder of Campus Network. Do you know that I have no rights?"

"You are also a shareholder of Dazhong.com." Qin Shaoyan replied unhurriedly.

Xiong Xiaoge picked up the phone without saying a word, found the assistant's number and called, "Get IDG's lawyer. I'm on the campus network and ask him to come over right away."

After speaking, Xiong Xiaoge looked at Qin Shaoyan and said, "I'll sign a confidentiality agreement."

"How can this be so embarrassing?" Qin Shaoyan said with a smile, "I still believe in your professional ethics."

Xiong Xiaoge's expression softened, and then he saw Qin Shaoyan take out a confidentiality agreement from the drawer and hand it to him.

"But in the shopping mall, you should be a villain first, then a gentleman." Qin Shaoyan said with a smile, "Be cautious in doing things. Mr. Xiong won't blame me, right?"

The corners of Xiong Xiaoge's mouth twitched a few times, then he reached out to take the confidentiality agreement, opened it and looked at it.

After a while, IDG's lawyer rushed over, took the confidentiality agreement and studied it. After confirming that there was no problem, Xiong Xiaoge signed his name.

After letting everyone else exit the office and closing the door, Qin Shaoyan took out a thick stack of plans from the safe.

Xiong Xiaoge took it and looked at the title above, and he was stunned.

"International University Student Talent Exchange Study and Social Practice Activities Study Tour Plan"

"What is this?" Xiong Xiaoge looked at Qin Shaoyan with a shocked face.

"This is the most important event of our campus network in the next year." Qin Shaoyan said with a smile, "It is called the International Summer Camp Plan."

"We will select dozens of students from universities across the country to participate in international summer camp study tours through lottery and layer-by-layer screening and assessment."

"The main project is to visit foreign universities and participate in social practice with college students from other countries to broaden their horizons and increase their knowledge."

"This includes visits to prestigious European and American universities, such as Cambridge and Oxford, the prestigious Ivy League schools in the United States, visits to national parks, and participation in charity activities."

"The entire event will be filmed by a camera crew and will be edited into a documentary for broadcast."

"The last stop of the study tour is a visit to the United Nations Headquarters in New York, invited by the World Youth Foundation, and then there will be a Model United Nations debate competition and other activities."

Xiong Xiaoge was stunned after hearing this, and looked at Qin Shaoyan in disbelief, "Have your connections expanded to the United Nations?"

Qin Shaoyan coughed and said, "It depends on people."

"Mr. Xiong, do you think my plan is better than Dazhong.com's?"

Not only is it a little better, it's simply a hundred million points better.

Xiong Xiaoge was immediately confused by this plan, and his mind was in a mess.

Xiong Xiaoge has always been positive about Qin Shaoyan's ability. He feels that this person is extraordinary and can often do big things that others cannot.

But when Qin Shaoyan came up with this plan, Xiong Xiaoge was still shocked.

The last time I was shocked was the Global International Marathon. Qin Shaoyan made the campus network a partner of the General Sports Administration, the Olympic Committee, and the Olympic Organizing Committee, and got a lot of traffic from the Olympic Games.

This time Qin Shaoyan is engaged in high-end games again, and the level is getting higher and higher, and he is about to reach the United Nations.

Not only does this plan have a high-end theme, but it is also very attractive with gimmicks. As long as it is slightly publicized, the topic and discussion will explode.

The gap between people is really bigger than the gap between dogs.

Xiong Xiaoge suddenly sighed, look at what kind of activities Yang Botao plays.

I can't compare to what level Qin Shaoyan plays.

"What's the budget for your plan?" Xiong Xiaoge asked directly, "You tell me the number. As long as it's not too outrageous, I'll approve it directly."

"We are cooperating with Facebook in the United States for this event, which mainly covers the round-trip air tickets, food and accommodation for the personnel." Qin Shaoyan said with a smile, "Facebook is responsible for other expenses, and the cost will not be too much. I will try to control it to 50 million. Within.”

"Okay." Xiong Xiaoge nodded, "This is money well spent."

Then Xiong Xiaoge frowned and said with some doubts: "There is nothing wrong with your previous content. It's just the United Nations part. Can you be sure?"

"There should be no problem with this part of the United Nations activities." Qin Shaoyan replied without hesitation, "Facebook should be responsible for public relations. The probability of success is very high."

In this era of underdeveloped information, everyone lacks understanding of the United Nations, and they always feel that this mysterious organization is tall and intimidating.

Qin Shaoyan has experienced the information explosion of later generations, and he has no mysterious aura filter for the United Nations.

After all, the United Nations is short of money and needs image promotion. The crew of "The Wandering Earth" can go to the United Nations headquarters to shoot on-site just by submitting a report and applying.

Therefore, the biggest gimmick part of Qin Shaoyan's plan is actually the least difficult. At most, he only needs to spend some money to donate.

It is politically correct for the United Nations to pay attention to the topic of youth education.

"Why didn't you tell me earlier if you had this plan?" Xiong Xiaoge couldn't wait to ask, "When will your plan start?"

"When will we start the B-round financing? I'll invest the money as soon as possible and you can work as soon as possible."

"This matter is not urgent." Qin Shaoyan was still very calm, "I have to wait for the publicity on Dazhong.com to start, so I can get some attention."

"The international summer camp plan is a quite large project. It takes a lot of time to prepare in advance, and it is also very laborious to implement. You have to take your time."

"What's more, I need to rely on this plan to negotiate with the school about the promotion of college student stations. I couldn't push it forward before, but now I can take advantage of the opportunity to talk much easier."

Xiong Xiaoge's eyes lit up, and he felt more and more that Qin Shaoyan was really good at playing.

This is killing two birds with one stone.

What else are you talking about?

As a university president, you don’t want your students to fail the summer camp program.

"Mr. Xiong, do you think campus network C rotation is worth 200 billion?" Qin Shaoyan asked with a smile.

Xiong Xiaoge hesitated a little. Qin Shaoyan's ability was undoubted, but the valuation of 200 billion was indeed too high.

"Okay, since Mr. Xiong still doesn't believe me, then I'll cancel this condition and let's proceed with Series B financing as normal." Qin Shaoyan said calmly, "But when it comes to round C, Mr. Xiong, don't blame me for being cruel."

Xiong Xiaoge thought for a few seconds, then slapped the plan with his palm, "You start the summer camp plan, and I will agree to your conditions for the C round immediately."

"A word is settled!"
