My Return to Life

Chapter 404: Stronger, Stronger

On the last day of April, the public cyberspace is buzzing.

Portal websites, forums, post bars, Weibo and other platforms are all discussing 'My World'.

In the beginning, it was a spontaneous discussion among some gamers.

The topic revolves around which 80 works will be the award-winning works, and there are also speculations about dark horses.

There are also some players who are more confident.

Because the ranking of the votes on the works that lasted for fifteen days can basically see the final result.

After all, dark horses are heterogeneous.

When the top ten results of the final eight categories were made public, the players quickly discovered that only 6 of the 80 award-winning works were ranked lower.

And when the selection of the 'Minecraft Award' was finally decided in a simple and direct way, discussions on the Internet exploded.

Among them, Weibo, the most innovative platform this year, is the most.

Perhaps because of the fun, the official blog launched an activity to guess the dark horse of the work this morning.

"Haha, I guessed it right! As expected, the big black horse "Surfing the River During the Qingming Festival" won the "My World Award"."

"I didn't expect that in eight categories, two works would become dark horses and enter the finals."

"Speaking of which, the work "Yellow River Flows into the Sea" is somewhat tricky, and I think it's because of the classification."

"If you want to talk about classification, then "Pearl of the Orient" is more tricky!"

"..."

"To be honest, it's not surprising that "Surfing the River During the Qingming Festival" won a prize of 1 million yuan. It's not just a matter of 100% restoration, but it's really exquisite and has the qualifications to become a contemporary artwork."

"One thing to say, indeed."

"It's just a pity that "The Great Wall·Forbidden City" is actually missing a move."

"Don't mention it, brother. I was originally in the top ten, but I was squeezed out by the dark horse. I happened to be eleventh. I cried all tears!"

"Don't say such depressing things when you're happy!"

"..."

Fang Nian, who likes surfing the Internet, certainly didn't miss this heated discussion.

But this time, Fang Nian was only a spectator, so he didn't use his mobile phone with the 'key-holding' account to browse Weibo.

Everyone celebrated enthusiastically, and Fang Nianwo sat in an inconspicuous corner, flipping through nearly 100,000 comments on the fun-loving official blog, with a happy face.

Accidentally came across a comment that was sorted low.

"You guys are discussing whether you have guessed the dark horse correctly or not. I am concerned about when Tanhanwan can take care of users' opinions and change the company name! Otherwise, be more direct, call it too fun, or call it fun, don't make such a fuss Mouth is okay!"

There are quite a few replies to this comment.

"Top top."

"I'd like to praise the landlord. I also want to say that this company's name is too unreasonable!"

"Why don't we launch an online campaign to rename Tanwanwan?"

"..."

Seeing Fang Nian here, he blinked: "..."

He muttered softly: "Who is responsible for managing the official blog? What is the account password? I can't let Mr. Guan see this kind of comments, otherwise the blame must be on my head."

"..."

When Fang Nian wanted to copy homework, he just said it casually.

Strictly speaking, it is indeed a bit of a mouthful to pronounce the three words greedy and fun.

The company should also change its name.

Fang Nian thought about it several times, and immediately remembered the name.

After a while, I decided to take the initiative to chat with Guan Qiuhe later.

Take the initiative to make Mr. Guan feel a little happier.

Thinking about these things, Fang Nian's movements were not slow at all, and he quickly flipped through other Weibo updates.

Soon another comment caught his attention.

"Fuck, I just saw news on other forums that the revenue of 'Minecraft' in April is said to be more than 1.3 billion."

Fang Nian: "..."

After seeing the news, Fang Nian found the source with almost no effort.

"With nothing to do, I made a simple statistics on the monthly sales of games on the greedy and fun game platform, and found an amazing fact;

Leaving aside all other games, let’s just talk about ‘Minecraft’. The domestic price of this game is as low as 47 yuan, but it is still the most expensive online game on the Tanwanwan game platform. The platform shows that the monthly sales volume is as high as 29 million copies!

Regardless of whether the game is fun or not, let’s just talk about the moment. As far as I can tell, as of press time, the number of newly added games sold today is close to 3 million!

That is to say, even if all other games on the Tanhaowan game platform have zero sales, the game "Minecraft" alone contributed more than 1.3 billion in revenue to Tanhaowan in April;

This is equivalent to every Chinese person giving Tanhanwan a dollar!

Moreover, according to Tanhaowan's public information, the release of this game in China is in the form of a buyout agency, which is why the China region is cheaper than all other regional servers, because Tanhaowan has independent pricing power;

Considering the popularity of "Minecraft" in other parts of the world, even if I am fun and bought out the agent at an astonishing price, I believe that this month's turnover should be a huge profit. "

The source was not posted on Weibo, but a game forum.

It's just a link on Weibo.

Seeing the listed data, Fang Nian was a little surprised, and thought: "3 million copies sold today? This is too outrageous!"

"Just to vote?"

"47 yuan a ticket, it's really...not cheap at all."

These statistics are very exciting, but Fang Nian frowned.

Next, Fang Nian looked at the comments under the forum post.

"The data listed by the landlord is all right. The only problem is that the operating costs paid by Tanhaowan are not counted. I remember that someone has simply calculated the net profit rate of a game company that operates its own games like Tanhaowan. It is said that it generally does not More than 20%;

Especially the greedy fun game platform has been expanding server resources in large quantities this month, and it is estimated that the profit will not be too high.

More importantly, many people are waiting for the second quarter charity plan of Tanhaowan. If 5% of the turnover revenue is used for charity, at least in April, Tanhaowan should undoubtedly lose money and make money. "

"The data is fine, but the profit should not be too high. If there are still such sales next month, there is a chance that Tanhanwan will start to make a profit."

"Not to mention anything else, the figure of 1.3 billion is really exciting!"

"After watching some public game videos, I went to download and try them out. The integration of Tanhanwan's game platform is very good. It is very comfortable to play all games with one account."

"..."

Fang Nian pursed his lips, pondering in his heart.

I discussed the profit rate with Guan Qiuhe before, and it is estimated that there will be a new low this month.

When the game platform was first launched, Guan Qiuhe was still playing around with Fang Nian, and now he was not short of money. After the 17th, the server resources were expanded on a large scale, and the cost was tens of millions.

It is estimated that this month alone, the net profit margin may be the same as the online speculation, not too high.

When Fang Nian thought about calling Guan Qiuhe, a call came in first.

It belongs to Liu Qin.

As soon as the phone was connected, Liu Qin's hearty laughter came out: "Mr. Fang, congratulations, the game platform for fun games has taken a big step this month, and 'Minecraft' has been a big success!"

"Congratulations." Fang Nian said with a smile, "It's a little walk forward."

Liu Qin agrees: "Based on the number of platform games, this is indeed the case, but it's just started, it's still early."

As he said that, Liu Qin changed the subject and said, "Mr. Fang, do you have time recently? Lao Kuang has always wanted to sit with you, and I have some friends from the investment bank."

"I'm afraid I haven't recently, I'm a little busy." Fang Nian said shyly.

Liu Qin expressed her understanding: "Boss Fang is busy, if there is a good opportunity in hand, we can communicate with each other."

"Definitely." Fang Nian replied with a smile.

In fact, strictly speaking, Fang Nian is similar to Lei Xi, both of whom are angel investors, but they have other companies, and they have a lot to eat.

Compared with a purely experienced investor like Liu Qin, the business should be done more chicly.

On the other hand, Fang Nian's business is more chic than many people's.

Doesn't matter what he belongs to.

After hanging up the phone, Fang Nian was not in a hurry to talk to Guan Qiuhe, he knew that Liu Qin's call was just the beginning.

Sure enough, Lei Xi's phone call came in soon.

"Congratulations to Mr. Fang, the greedy fun game platform has been online for a month, and it should have directly realized the return of profit, right?" Lei Xi said with a smile.

Fang Nian replied, "I don't know the specifics."

"If I had known earlier, I would have made an exception and invested with Mr. Liu for fun!" Lei Xi said in a tone of regret.

Fang Nian said haha: "Next time I must call Mr. Lei."

"..."

Apart from Lei Xi and Liu Qin, Tan Qunzhao and Kuang Pingping also called to congratulate them.

Although no matter from which point of view, the operating expenses invested by Tanhanwan this month are not a small amount;

However, the monthly turnover of 1.3 billion has undoubtedly broken the current monthly game turnover data maintained by all domestic game manufacturers.

Therefore, it is reasonable for someone who knows Fang Nian, the investor behind the scenes, to come to congratulate him and make a basic friendship.

But having said that, even though the revenue data of Greedy Fun this month is very good, there is still a big gap between the monthly revenue of some large domestic game manufacturers.

After a series of phone calls, Fang Nian felt much happier.

In any case, congratulations from others are always pleasing.

…………

Later, Fang Nian took the initiative to make a phone call with Guan Qiuhe.

"Is Mr. Guan's time convenient? Tell me a few words?"

Guan Qiuhe hummed: "Tell me."

"Then what, I'm more curious, is this month's profit as low as the outsiders say, and even has to lose money to make money." Fang Nian said with a serious face.

Guan Qiuhe just laughed: "Mr. Fang actually still cares about such a small matter, and the meeting is over in the morning."

"The financial statement was sent to your mailbox."

Unless Fang Nian requests such things as financial statements, they will not be sent to Wen Ye.

If it is not sent to Wen Ye, it will be God's will when Fang Nian sees it.

And something as certain as a financial statement is not an emergency.

Therefore, Guan Qiuhe would only tell Fang Nian when he was particularly free.

Hearing this, Fang Nian yelled: "Ah, I didn't bring my computer with me."

Guan Qiuhe didn't try to break down Fang Nian's excuses, although she could say that 'the mobile phone can access the mailbox' and 'the traffic is only worth a few dollars'.

Instead, he answered this question: "The sales data of 'Minecraft' is very good, so the profit margin is higher than expected. The initial comprehensive net profit rate should be about 35%."

Fang Nian thought for a while and said, "It seems to be okay."

Then the topic changed: "I read a lot of news on the Internet just now. The actual income of this "Minecraft" event is much higher than expected, and the heat needs to be cooled later."

"Because more than half of the current game platforms rely on the traffic of 'Minecraft', the development potential of the game cannot be overdrawn;

It seems that many registered users in this event will be silent users, which is not a good sign. "

Guan Qiuhe took it seriously: "Suddenly more than one million copies were sold in the afternoon, so I asked the relevant departments to focus on this matter."

"Such activities are of great benefit to the game. Generally speaking, the benefits outweigh the disadvantages. How about making it a fixed form once a year?"

Fang Nian pondered for a moment, and finally said: "You can try."

"It is still necessary to pay more attention to the essential development of the platform."

Guan Qiuhe responded: "However, according to the operating data, the current situation is very good."

Fang Nian thought about it, and said: "Maybe he really answered that sentence, the stronger he is, the stronger he is."

Then Fang Nian said: "I heard you said that Shencheng intends to let Tan Wanwan move its headquarters here. Regarding this matter, I think that if there is favorable tax support, it can be relocated in the form of a subsidiary company;

The headquarters is still in Tangli, after all, it is the land of Longxing, so we still need to pay attention to it. "

After a short pause, Fang Nian continued, "Also, I think we can take this opportunity to change the company's name."

Hearing this, Guan Qiuhe said calmly, "It's a little tricky to be fun, isn't it?"

"Yes, it's all my fault. The name I mentioned casually at the beginning is not easy to be in line with international standards." Fang Nian continued, "So, while the company is still in the period of rapid development, there is still time to change the name."

Guan Qiuhe snorted: "So, Mr. Fang has been dissatisfied with the name Tanfufu for a long time, right?"

Fang Nian hurriedly said, "Yes, yes, I'm afraid..."

Before Fang Nian finished speaking, he was interrupted by Guan Qiuhe's sneer: "Heh!"

"Mr. Fang is worthy of being a great writer! He has a high level of education, a lot of ideas, and a nobleman who forgets things!"

Fang Nian: "Ah this?!"

"I decided on the name at the beginning!" Guan Qiuhe gritted his teeth and said in a low voice.

Fang Nian: "..."

Fortunately, Guan Qiuhe just made complaints and finally agreed to Fang Nian's proposal.

And completely hand over the naming rights to Fang Nian.

Fang Nian pondered and said: "I actually want to use some nouns from old stories as the company name. This is when I invested in a friend's cloud computing company. The friend said the company's name is 'Bi Fang', which means after the fire. I have an idea."

"However, the two names that came to mind seem to be too beneficial to me in terms of meaning."

Guan Qiuhe was amazed: "Usually, Mr. Fang would like to draw a clear line with the company, but it's rare that Fang always wants to gain some fame, so he has to choose one of the two!"

"Hurry up and let me listen."

Fang Nian didn't hesitate much, and said directly: "One is Ruixue, which means Ruixue heralds a good year;

One is Dangkang, an auspicious beast in Shanhaijing, whose name comes from the sound of its cry, Dangkang, a sign of a prosperous year. "
