Chapter 1307: Boss Zhang Sings Really Well!

Chapter 1307: Boss Zhang Sings Really Well!

Before this, Yan Qi had also invested in this studio and earned money. He had given this investment firm a certain return. Logically speaking, it should not be difficult to pull in another investment.

However, the problem was that this investment firm was not considered one of the best in Jingzhou. It did not have such strong financial resources. He had invested in Yan Qi previously because Yan Qi’s ‘Blade of the Empire’ was his best mobile game.

He had taken a step towards a standalone action game. There were not many investment firms who were willing to take on such a huge risk.

Everyone knew that there was a high risk of failure for standalone games. It was even more so for standalone games that were hugely invested. Boss Pei was the only one in the country who could ensure that a standalone game would become popular. Other companies were not that good.

What’s more, mobile games and standalone AAA games were not on the same level.

It might only cost a few million yuan to create a mobile game. 20 to 30 million yuan was considered quite a sum. They could also cover a portion of the publicity budget. However, for a AAA game to ensure a standard 20 hours game time, it would easily cost hundreds of millions even with the current level of technology.

Even if he could compress the process and use some repetitive gameplay, assembly and other systems to extend the game time, at the end of the day, tens of millions of yuan in research and development budget was the limit.

Repent and be Saved’s research and development budget was relatively low because the entire story was purer and not as complicated as Shu Li.

Boss Pei had already walked this path. Yan Qi could only walk another path.

Once he left, he would not have enough money.

Where could he get so much money from?

Yan Qi fell into confusion again.

“Eh? Why are you still struggling? You haven’t thought of it?”

Li Yada came out to take a look and happened to see Yan Qi sighing in his seat.

In her heart, she thought that his comprehension shouldn’t be that bad, right?

I’ve already explained it so clearly to you. Even if the details of the game were not done, there should be a general direction and a large framework, right?

Was there a need to sigh here?

Yan Qi smiled awkwardly. “Big Sister Li, I have an idea, but I have an even more serious problem…”

“No money.”

Li Yada was stunned. “Huh? Do you have an idea? Let me take a look.”

Yan Qi stepped aside and Li Yada pulled a chair over to take a look at the design draft of “Shu Li”.

After reading it, Li Yada raised her thumb. “Not bad!”

“I think this idea is quite good. At the very least, it makes my eyes light up. At the moment, there are no games of this genre in the market.”

Yan Qi smiled bitterly. “But it’s useless. If we want to complete this idea without castration, the research and development budget must be at least 100 million yuan, right?”

“Our small workspace will definitely not be able to fork out anything. We can only look for investors. However, the game industry is a high-risk industry after all. Who would be willing to invest a hundred million yuan in a single-player game? Even if we invest three to five million yuan into a mobile game, we would have to think twice!”

After a moment of silence, Li Yada said, “Perhaps I can help you think of something.”

“I happen to know a few investors, especially Dream Realization Ventures. My relationship with them is not bad.”

Yan Qi was stunned. His expression gradually became shocked.

Good lord, that works too?

Big Sister Li was really well-hidden!

At first, he had thought that she was just an ordinary employee on Dawn Games platform. In the end, Dream Realization Ventures knew people inside Tengda.

Wasn’t Dream Realization Ventures Tengda’s investment firm?

Could it be that Li Yada quit Tengda to start her own business?

That was impossible. Tengda had such good benefits and treatment. How could anyone take the initiative to leave?

Yes, it could also be related to Dawn Games platform.

Yan Qi did not know who the sponsor behind Dawn Games platform was. The boss of this depth was very mysterious. However, he knew that he was definitely not short of money.

Anyone who dared to play like Dawn Games platform was definitely not short of money.

Or perhaps the boss behind Chao Lu Games knew these investors. As the backbone of the platform, Li Yada also knew these investors and could speak to them.

At that thought, Yan Qi seemed to see a glimmer of hope. “Really? That’s great!”

“However…”

Yan Qi still felt a little weak. “I heard that Dream Realization Ventures is also a very unique investment company. There is a rule. You have to queue if you want to get the investment. What’s more, the amount of money invested is fixed. It’s impossible to invest more than a hundred million yuan at once.”

“What’s more, the game ‘Shu Li’ is only at the concept draft stage. It doesn’t even have a demo. Even with your connections, it would be difficult to get an investment…”

Investment was a serious matter to investors. They had to talk about returns. They could not possibly invest hundreds of millions of yuan just because of a word from a friend.

If he had been so rash, the investor would have bankrupted himself long ago.

Thus, it was not that he did not trust this relationship. The key was that this was not a small matter like borrowing three to five hundred yuan.

Li Yada pondered for a moment. “Yes, we do have to make some preparations.”

“How about this, follow Dream Realization Ventures’ format and write a simple plan.”

“I’ll help you lubricate it and introduce this game from my perspective. See if I can move… investors.”

Li Yada almost said, “Let’s see if we can move Boss Pei.”

That was because she knew very well that He Desheng would definitely report such a huge investment to Boss Pei.

According to Boss Pei’s character, he would probably support domestically-produced games. However, as his subordinate, Li Yada had to truthfully report the risks and problems of this game so that Boss Pei could make the best decision.

If Boss Pei felt that it was not possible, it meant that this idea was not reliable. It would be a failure even if it was produced. He would persuade Yan Qi not to do it.

If Boss Pei approved and was willing to invest, it meant that there was no problem with the game. He could then develop it without any worries.

Yan Qi nodded. “Alright, I’ll write a plan.”

He did not have much hope. However, with Li Yada as his backing, he had to give it a shot.

It would not take much effort to write a plan and a design draft.

What if he could really get investments? If he could not get a hundred million yuan, he could get fifty million yuan. That would be fine too!

Then, he could sell a trial version and make a pre-order. Perhaps he could persevere.

Both of them went back to work.

November 10th, Saturday…

GOG’s international invitational tournament has officially started!

On the other hand, IOI’s global finals were also held at the same time. After all, both competitions were in Europe. There were only a few weekends to choose from.

However, even though both competitions started on Saturday, the timing was different.

GOG would start at 9 AM in Europe, which was equivalent to 5 PM in China. IOI would start at 3 PM in Europe, which was equivalent to 11.30 PM in China.

Obviously, this was a simple choice.

There was a six to eight hour time difference between Europe and China, so the viewing time on both sides would inevitably be different.

GOG was because Tengda was the organizer and had deliberately requested for the competition to start in the morning. This way, even though it was not particularly friendly to the European audience, it was relatively neutral and took good care of domestic players.

What’s more, most of the domestic teams had been arranged in advance in the competition schedule. Players who were unwilling to stay up late could sleep after watching the domestic teams’ group stages. They did not have to stay up too late.

As for IOI, they would obviously not take care of domestic players. They wanted to snatch the European market. Of course, they had to arrange the competition to be in Europe’s prime time.

As for the domestic audience, let them stay up late. Indeed, they could not be taken care of.

In the afternoon, the empty space in front of the big screen of Tengda experience shop in Golden Prosperity Square was filled with viewers.

GOG’s offline competition was in full swing.

Many large shopping malls across the country had huge screens set up in the halls on the first floor. Many cinemas had also used empty halls to watch the competition.

The most lively place offline was obviously the empty space in front of Tengda’s experience shop.

On one hand, it was because the screen here was big enough to accommodate enough people. On the other hand, it was also because the opposite side was the GPL competition venue.

During the GPL regular season, a large number of people gathered here every day to watch the competition. It had already become a trend and habit.

It might be November now and the weather had turned cold but the audience was still very enthusiastic with the crowd.

The competition would only start an hour later, but the event had already been arranged.

Chen Lei went on stage to sing. The situation at the venue was live-streamed at other offline viewing spots. It became a special benefit for domestic audiences.

In the square, a few viewers were listening to Chen Lei’s performance as they discussed.

“It’s not bad to be able to invite Chen Lei to sing for the domestic audience and to adjust the timing for the competition. I feel that the domestic players in GOG are very good. It’s completely different from IOI.”

“Back then, Chen Lei only became popular because of Boss Pei. He came back to sing and show his face in front of gamers to increase his popularity. That was a win-win situation.”

“Who is the guest that sang with Chen Lei? His singing is not that good. He’s just a bar singer. How can he stand on stage like that? And he’s singing with Chen Lei?”

“That? That’s Boss Zhang from the E-Sports Industry Department, the previous person-in-charge of Fish-Catching Internet Cafe, the person-in-charge of ROF Computer-Installation, the current person-in-charge of DGE Club and E-Sports Industry Department. In theory, GOG’s competition is all under him.”

“Holy sh * t? What a big deal!”

“Speaking of which, Boss Zhang is really awesome. Such a big boss could actually sing to this level. Tengda is really filled with talent!”

“That’s right. According to sources, Boss Zhang was originally the part-time bartender and resident singer at Fish-Catching Internet Cafe. Before Chen Lei arrived, he was the resident singer.”

“What happened next?”

“After that? After that, Fish-Catching Internet Cafe nearly went bankrupt. Fortunately, Chen Lei took over and Fish-Catching Internet Cafe was revived.”

“Nonsense, I don’t allow you to slander my beloved Boss Zhang!”

“That’s right! Boss Zhang sang so well! Even better than Chen Lei! Boss Zhang, I cheer for you!”

“Boss Zhang, can you arrange for the autographs of all DGE players? Can we have a draw near the limited number of GPL teams?”

“Here? I’ll get one of the most compatible machines in ROF?”

“Boss Zhang, I’ll leave the account of all heroes with all skins to you!”

“I want to play professionally! Boss Zhang, look at me!”

Once they heard of Zhang Yuan’s identity, the comments immediately took a 180-degree turn.

Everyone expressed one by one that with Boss Zhang’s status and position, he actually went on stage to sing for everyone to get a free pass. What’s more, he sang quite well. He was simply making a killing!
