Financing is not for everyone.
Modern Bicycle’s second round of financing is obviously not looking for money, but money + strategic partners.
At present, this startup not only has hundreds of millions of cash flows, but also a huge amount of user travel data, and based on this data, it can build a user activity model that is more accurate than a heat map.
Only those Internet giants have the ability to monetize this data.
Unless it is really short of money and reaches the point where it cannot live without money, there is no way Modern Bicycle can get money from investment institutions such as Jiang'an Investment.
Ding Shihui also knew in his heart that even if he offered double the premium, the other party would probably not accept it...
…
Saturday at noon.
Ma Youtian stood next to the entrance of a subway station on Line 2, looking at the rows of small yellow cars parked in the open space at the entrance. His eyes squeezed by apple muscles narrowed into a slit, as if he was asleep. .
His secretary Li Gaoming stood aside and waited quietly, wondering what his big boss was planning.
Suddenly, the eyes opened slightly, and Ma Youtian said in admiration.
"It's high, it's really high."
Li Gaoming didn't dare to speak. Last time, he was scolded by his boss and his bonus was deducted because he interrupted his boss's thinking by speaking nonsense.
However, Ma Youtian seemed not to let him go.
"Li Gaoming, do you know what else I can say?"
Upon hearing this, Li Gaoming was slightly startled and whispered in a tentative tone.
"… telephone pole?"
"Stupid! Am I looking at the telephone poles?" Ma Youtian glared at him and cursed, but his face was not angry. He continued with a slightly proud look in his eyes, "I'm talking about these bicycles, they are really tall. "
Li Gaoming seized the opportunity and asked pretending to be confused.
"Please give me some advice from the boss..."
"Didn't you notice?" Ma Youtian pointed at the people pushing bicycles and said lazily, "The people riding these bicycles are all hanging wires."
This sentence was indeed a bit excessive, because Li Gaoming felt that he was also offended.
However, he was helpless. After all, the person next to him was paid his salary, so he could only pretend to be confused and smile, and continued to ask.
"I... just found out."
"For us in business, the most important thing is eyesight, followed by the ability to summarize," Ma Youtian continued earnestly, "Let me ask you again, who are our Youtiandai customers?"
Li Gaoming hesitated for a moment and replied.
"...Are these cyclists too?"
"good."
Ma Youtian smacked his lips, and instead of praising him for his correct answer, he continued to speak on his own.
"If you pay a deposit of 299, you can ride for free for three months. If we turn the money we raise from them into small loans and lend them out, they will not only use their own money to consume, but also pay us interest. .”
Thinking of this, Ma Youtian's eyes flickered and he couldn't help but nodded in admiration.
"As expected of the person I like, he does have two skills!"
Previously, I was almost forced to go to the rooftop because I was fully stocked with Xiabei Animal Husbandry’s stock halfway up the mountain. However, in less than two months, the North American swine fever epidemic broke out, and the stock not only rose back, but also doubled.
Now Yo-Tian Ma somehow has a cash flow of 100 million, which makes money much faster than when he makes web games and mobile games.
It is impossible for someone who has made quick money to expect him to make steady money.
Now simply making Internet products can no longer satisfy him. At the suggestion of a friend, he and several buddies working in other industries pooled together money and started a consumer loan business using the Internet. The annual growth rate is 15 points. Interest rate, even if there are occasional bad debts, it is a business that is sure to make money without losing money.
Now there is only one bottleneck that restricts the expansion of their industry, and that is the lack of support from more capital pools.
After reading about the bike-sharing project in the Changjiang Financial Daily, Ma Youtian immediately became interested. Now after an on-site inspection, he has become more determined in his thoughts.
This will definitely make you popular!
"We also have to build shared bikes."
Hearing these words, Li Gaoming was stunned for a moment and said hesitantly.
"But... it will cost a lot of money to build so many bicycles, right?"
"You are stupid. Who uses their own money to do business?" Ma Youtian pushed his head angrily and complained, "What do you mean by that? I don't need that little money?"
Li Gaoming apologized quickly.
"No, no, boss, I don't mean that."
Ma Youtian squinted and glanced at the bicycle next to him, then at his secretary who only knew how to flatter others, and couldn't help but shook his head and said.
"If only you had half the abilities of Mr. Lin, why would I, Ma Youtian, worry about not becoming the richest man in Xia Kingdom?"
"Hey, it's hard for an enlightened master to find a good general."
"..." Looking at the boss who was shaking his head and sighing and walking to the car nearby, Li Gaoming had a speechless expression on his face and didn't know how to complain.
He feels that it must be the fault of this society that such people can get rich...
…
For Hao Yun, today is a day worth celebrating.
At Li Zongzheng's suggestion, Yunmeng Games launched the Creative Workshop software, and put "Magic Tower" and "Cultivation Simulator" on it.
Although the Magic Tower itself is free, the users who were diverted to Yunmeng Games' own platform "Creative Workshop" by the Magic Tower bought 200,000 copies of "Cultivation Simulator".
Based on the selling price of 79 yuan per game, the turnover is 15.8 million soft sister coins.
Because it is its own platform, the money does not have to be split 50-50 with the platform. After paying the tax, it belongs to Yunmeng Games itself, and there is no need to wait a month to receive the money.
Because of the huge sales of "Cultivation Simulator", Yunmeng Group suddenly had a large amount of liquidity in its account. Without any hesitation, Hao Yun paid off the pig loan as soon as he got the money.
Although Li Zongzheng resisted using money from Yunmeng Games to wipe Lin Jun's ass, Hao Yun quickly threw him a script for "Xuanyuan Sword: Traces of the Sky" and turned his attention away. All attracted away.
When he first received the script, Li Zongzheng was not very interested.
After all, Shushan Swordsman Chuanzhu Yu was at the forefront, and ordinary martial arts novels simply could not catch his eye. Novels with fairy tale themes seemed to him just following the trend with no new ideas, let alone joining the trend.
However, when Hao Yun forced him to read the script aloud in the company, Li Zongzheng unexpectedly discovered that there was something special about this thing.
At least it was infinitely better than the one he originally asked Liu Ye to write!
"Boss! Who did you ask to write this script?" Li Zongzheng looked at Hao Yun excitedly and asked with an expression on his face as if he had found a treasure.
He had a feeling.
This script's understanding of the fairy tale theme and some settings seem to go further than "Shu Mountain"
There is no comparison, purely from the perspective of a game designer. Compared with the scattered plot of "Shushan", this script is obviously more suitable for adaptation into a game.
There are ups and downs, tear-jerking points, and erotic points. Although there are not many characters, they are all flesh and blood... Now there is only one carrier left to carry all these elements.
In Li Zongzheng's view, this script was tailor-made for him!
What kind of sandbox game should I make? A 3A masterpiece with plot and graphics is the way to go! This is what a game designer with dreams should do!
After seeing this script, Li Zongzheng felt that he was good again!
"Well, this is written by a very powerful martial arts author. In short, it is not easy to come up with this script... You should adapt it carefully and remember not to perfunctory." Hao Yun didn't know how to explain it, so he could only fool him like this. passed.
However…
Li Zongzheng seemed to have thought of something, and a moved expression suddenly appeared on his face.
"Could it be... that the boss wrote the script?"
"...?" Hao Yun didn't understand what he was talking about, but was a little curious about who he was thinking of.
However, Li Zongzheng didn't explain anything to him, but suddenly a look of surprise appeared on his face and he muttered softly.
"No wonder... I said that the latest updates are so slow. It turns out that he is polishing the script."
This script controls the fairy tale theme so masterfully that it even goes one step further on the basis of Shushan.
Based on Li Zongzheng's understanding of the current Xia Kingdom martial arts novel world, no one can be found among online writers or traditional writers who can have such a high level of understanding of the unprecedented new subject of Xia Xia and write it. Write the kind of fairy tales in the true sense, rather than the martial arts novels that pretend to be high-spirited.
In this case, there is only one explanation!
That is this script, written by the owner of Huanzhu Tower himself!
The more Li Zongzheng thought about it, the more he felt it was possible, not even possible anymore, but that it must be like this.
His expression suddenly became solemn, he looked at Hao Yun and said seriously.
"Mr. Hao! Don't worry!"
"I will definitely do my best to present the world described in this script to the players in the form of a game!"
