Chapter 683: Poor Road Plan (Ask for a Monthly Pass!) )
Thursday, October 13th.
Tengda headquarters.
Assistant Xin led Qiu Hong to the reception room and prepared tea.
"You drink tea first, and Mr. Pei will be there soon."
Qiu Hong hurriedly nodded: "Okay, okay." ”
Waiting for Assistant Xin to leave the reception room, Qiu Hong drank tea and yearned for Tengda games.
After giving a lecture to "Mr. Ma" some time ago, Qiu Hong began to prepare to reconnect with his friends in the circle, and wanted to open another company to develop new projects and regroup.
However, the specific purpose of the new project has not been determined for a long time, and it is naturally impossible to convince investors to invest money.
For Qiu Hong, he does have a deep accumulation in krypton gold online games, but he has basically exhausted it when his last business failed.
The cultural industry is a highly subjective industry, and the game industry is even more so.
When you are successful, you will be full of ambition and feel that you are right everywhere; But when you fail, you fall into deep self-doubt and feel like you're worthless.
Qiu Hong is now in the middle of this struggle, he wants to start a new company, he wants to redevelop a successful game, but he is not prepared enough, so he feels lost.
At this time, "Mr. Ma" called again and invited him to come to Jingzhou, saying that he had a cooperation with Tengda officials and needed to be discussed in detail in person.
The phone didn't say what it was.
If it is another company, Qiu Hong may not think about it, because after starting his own business, he will work for others, from the time he has the final say to being managed by others, there will always be a feeling of "sending people under the fence".
But after all, it is Tengda Group, and there is a relationship with Mr. Ma, so Qiu Hong still decided to come here.
When I came to Jingzhou before, I went straight to the café near Handong University, but this time Qiu Hongcai finally entered the interior of Tengda Group.
Spacious workstations, enviable benefits, and full mental state of employees......
all made Qiu Hong feel sincerely envious.
Because he also opened a company himself, he knows the hardships involved, and he also knows how difficult it is to build such a huge group as Tengda.
It is even more incredible to be able to provide such a favorable working environment and relaxed working atmosphere while ensuring the enthusiasm and combat effectiveness of all employees of the company.
In short, after seeing the scene inside Tengda, Qiu Hong felt that he had not come in vain.
As for what kind of cooperation will be discussed?
Qiu Hong really couldn't imagine it.
Because Qiu Hong is very clear about his positioning, although he is a little famous in the domestic game circle, he is only limited to the field of krypton gold online games, and he may have made some money, but he is not comparable with Tengda in all aspects.
Tengda doesn't seem to need himself at all.
Just thinking about it, there was a slight sound of footsteps outside the reception room, and I vaguely heard Assistant Xin say, "Mr. Pei, Mr. Qiu is already waiting in the reception room." ”
Qiu Hong immediately subconsciously sat up straight.
Mr. Pei is here!
For this legend, Qiu Hong has always only heard of his name and has not seen him, and for some reason he still has a little bit of expectations.
Hearing a knock on the door outside the reception room, Qiu Hong hurriedly said, "Please come in." ”
Assistant Xin opened the door of the reception room, and "Mr. Ma" walked in.
"Mr. Pei, call me at any time if you have any questions." After Assistant Xin finished speaking, he closed the door and left.
Qiu Hong had already stood up and was ready to shake hands with Mr. Pei, but when he saw the current situation, he was stunned for a while.
Question marks floated all over the head.
???
Pei Qian looked at Qiu Hong, who had just stood up with a dull and overwhelmed expression, and smiled slightly: "Mr. Qiu, I haven't seen you for a long time." ”
Qiu Hong didn't come back for a while.
Isn't this Mr. Ma?
Then why does this assistant, who seems to have a high status in the company, call him "Mr. Pei"?
Qiu Hong was vaguely aware of something, but felt a little incredulous, because he couldn't figure out the reason and logic behind it.
Pei Qian sat down on the sofa, at this time, there was no need to let Qiu Hong guess again, just tell the prepared rhetoric directly, and get to the point as soon as possible.
"Mr. Qiu, I'm sorry first. My real identity is actually not Mr. Ma of Dream Ventures, I am Pei Qian himself. ”
"As for why you call yourself Mr. Ma...... The main thing is to change my identity to contact you, communicate and discuss, understand each other, and decide whether there is any possibility of cooperation between us. ”
There were fewer question marks on Qiu Hong's head, and there was a sudden expression on his face.
In other words, Mr. Pei was not actually listening to my lecture before, but conducting an anonymous inspection and interview?
It's like the principal will sit in on the teacher's lecture to get an idea of the teacher's true level?
This explains why Mr. Pei wore the vest of "Mr. Ma" to contact him.
However, Qiu Hong still has doubts.
I'm just a very ordinary game producer, although it's a little famous, but the domestic game circle is a big deal.
What is the virtue and how can Mr. Pei go to great lengths to test whether there is any possibility of cooperation? Mr. Pei still paid the tuition at that time!
What kind of cooperation is it?
Pei Qian didn't plan to dwell on this topic for too long, so he had to hurry up and move on.
"Mr. Qiu, let me talk about our cooperation plan first, you can think about it."
"The project I'm going to do is called the 'Poor Journey'."
"This is a support program for domestic stand-alone game and independent game developers. We are committed to finding domestic stand-alone game and independent game development teams that need help, and providing them with the necessary development funds. ”
"I would like to ask you to be the head of this 'Poor Journey' and become an executive of Tengda Group. All salaries and benefits are on par with the heads of other departments, but one thing to emphasize is that your bonus income will not be linked to the income of the 'Poor Journey'. ”
"Your winnings depend on the ratio of the number of profitable projects to the total number of projects, and the lower this ratio, the more you win."
"I can't disclose the exact amount yet, but I can guarantee that it won't be lower than the bonus income you earned when you were the main planner of a successful project, and of course, I must be very honest and say that it doesn't reach the income of a successful business."
"Of course, if Mr. Qiu is dissatisfied and wants to leave, or asks for an adjustment in salary, these can be discussed."
"That's probably it, if Mr. Qiu has any questions, just ask."
Pei Qian took a sip of tea and looked at Qiu Hong with a smile.
As for why it is called "Poor Road Project" instead of "Angel Project" and "Savior Project", it is obviously because Pei Qian hopes that this plan will come to the end of the road soon, and it must have a good omen from the name.
Qiu Hong was silent.
It's not that there are no questions, but there are so many questions that I don't know where to start!
In fact, there are many companies in China that are doing similar things.
The two types of companies that do the most are investment companies or so-called "incubators" that specialize in the game industry, and game channels and platforms.
Although the official ESRO platform is the largest and most authoritative platform, it does not mean that other gaming platforms do not exist. For example, the application market of Shenhua mobile phone, which can also be regarded as a kind of game channel and platform.
These two types of companies go to similar support programs, apparently because they are profitable.
There are many start-up companies in the game industry that have exploded overnight, especially in the past two years, it is the outlet of the outbreak of the mobile Internet, and the myth of mobile game companies getting rich overnight has been staged repeatedly.
Although there are many investment companies, there is also a threshold for investment, and some investment companies do not understand the game industry, so they naturally dare not invest in these small companies in the game industry.
Therefore, investment companies specializing in the gaming industry came into being.
The platform supports some start-up game companies, basically for the same purpose: to put it mildly, it is to win more and better games for its own platform, but in the final analysis, it is still to make money.
Therefore, these companies have one characteristic: they do invest in and support many companies, but the vast majority of them are online game companies and mobile game companies.
The reason is very simple, this is the only way to make money!
Investing in this kind of company is high-risk and high-reward.
Investing in single-player games and indie games is high-risk and reward-free.
It is normal for investment companies to invest in online games instead of stand-alone games, and mobile games instead of independent games.
But Mr. Pei's "Poor Road Plan" turned out to be specifically for stand-alone games and indie games?
Moreover, as the person in charge, the bonus and performance are not linked to the income of the project?
Rather, it is inversely proportional to the number of "number of profitable projects/total number of projects"?
Doesn't that mean that the more total number of projects invested and the smaller the number of profitable projects, the more bonuses there will be?
Is it okay to incentive?
Isn't this encouraging yourself to throw more garbage projects without screening?
This confused Qiu Hong.
As for the income side, sincerity is already full.
Before Qiu Hong started his business, he served as the chief planner to make a project with a monthly turnover of more than 100 million yuan, which was the highest income in his career, but the monthly bonus was only more than 100,000 yuan.
Because the company's bonus rule is that the entire development team can only get 3% of the net income of the project, and this so-called "monthly turnover of more than 100 million" projects is actually mostly bragging components, and it is not really a net income of more than 100 million.
It is necessary to deduct the share with the channel and the platform (the channel takes the lion's share), deduct the marketing expenses (a large part of this data is brushed by their own company), and at that time, there were more people in the development team, and these bonuses were divided into the entire project, and everyone had a share, although the share ratio would be high as the main planner, it was also limited.
After calculating the miscellaneous things, the money I really got was compared with the money earned by the project, and it was a drop in the bucket, and it was not even a soup drink.
That's why Qiu Hongcai is so eager to jump out and start a business.
