Losing Money to Be a Tycoon

Chapter 326: Three logos

Views:

Tuesday, November 9th.

Last week, Pei Qian was busy with a lot of things.

At Feihuang Studio, Zhu Xiaoce and Huang Sibo are still doing preparatory work according to Pei Qian's script.

Zhu Xiaoce had to expand the script into the length required for the movie, and he also had to urgently recruit some personnel. After the script and storyboards were completed, it was estimated that the script, the selection of actors, the viewing of scenes, etc., had to be discussed. There are still a lot of things to do. .

On the side of Shangyang Games, everyone is still frantically playing horror games to find materials and inspiration. However, Pei Qian estimates that with the work efficiency of Ye Zhizhou and Wang Xiaobin, the rough design draft should be available in the next few days.

There are not many things that need to be prepared for the investment company. With the help of He Desheng, Dream Realization Ventures should be able to get on the right track soon.

The detailed recruitment rules of the human resources department are also being formulated. At present, the general process has been set, but the specific written test and interview questions have to be finalized, including the reception arrangements during the recruitment process, the cooperation of various departments, and measures to prevent leaks. Wait, you still need to be prepared.

As for the mobile phone department, Chang You is already contacting his brothers in Hongcheng Technology. When the time comes to find a similar office building in Jingzhou, it will almost be possible to start formal research and development.

After that, it's money.

Yesterday, Pei Qian had invested 20 million Yuan Meng Venture Capital.

November 1st and 8th are Mondays, which are the days when the game's share is credited.

At the time of settlement on the 31st of last month, the system funds had reached 10 million, but this did not mean that Pei Qian had only 10 million at his disposal.

"Ghost General", "Fortress at Sea", "Game Producer", "Back to the Shore" (including overseas versions), "Blood War Song" mobile games... This large number of games are still providing income.

Taking the mobile game "Blood War Song" as an example, the monthly net income is four or five million, and the two-week income is two million.

The follow-up income of "Ghost General" and "Game Producer" is similar. "Back to the Shore" is currently in the peak sales period. The domestic and overseas versions are combined, and the income in two weeks is seven or eight million.

The income of "Fortress at Sea" is more stable than that of "Back to the Shore".

In addition, there are other businesses such as Moyu Internet Cafe and rof that were negatively affected by the surprise spending, which were also profitable this month.

Not to mention Mingyun Private Kitchen, who is as stable as an old dog, and the finish line who is just beginning to emerge.

All of these add up, and even after deducting the expenses of a money-burning industry like headwind logistics, you can earn more than ten million in almost two weeks.

A month of money, almost 30 million to go.

The settlement cycle this time is five months. During these five months, the income of these games will fluctuate and fluctuate. For example, the income of several single-player games will definitely decline, but the network such as "Blood War Song" and "Fortress at Sea" will definitely decline. The vitality of games is too tenacious, they are the main force of income.

Therefore, Pei Qian's goal is not to spend 10 million in five months, but to spend 150 million in five months.

And, that's just the money you're sure you're about to make at the moment.

What if a project blows up before settlement? Have to play the amount in advance.

Even if the system stipulates that 50% of the initial system funds can be used for charity, it is only 5 million.

Therefore, Pei Qian had to work hard.

Pei Qian almost divided the current business, and decided to call Yuanmeng Venture Capital 20 million to let the old horse practice his skills.

Mainly considering that Ma Yang is currently in a state where a newborn calf is not afraid of tigers, which is a good time to lose his family.

If he gave too little money at the beginning, Ma Yang would lose one or two million even if he lost.

If Ma Yang learns from these failures and invests in a successful project after giving more money, wouldn't that be the end of it

Therefore, Pei Qian thought about giving the old horse 20 million directly and let him spend it hard!

As the saying goes, one bite grows one's wisdom. Anyway, as long as the losses in the front are big enough, there is no need to worry about the old horse's intellectual growth in the future.

As for other businesses, the budget must be fully filled in order to give President Pei some worries.

On the side of Shangyang Games, the money for research and development of horror games has to invest 20 million;

On the Tenda Games side, although Pei Qian has not yet figured out what game to play, since it is the leading department of the company, the greater the ability, the greater the responsibility, and spending 50 million is not too much;

Feihuang Studio makes a movie, although the content that can be shot is not much, it is a low-cost movie, but it is reasonable to spend more money for special effects, and spend 30 million;

In the mobile phone department, although there is no plan to mass-produce high-end phones, it is necessary to invest 20 million in the early stage. If you find that the mobile phone cannot be sold, you must continue to invest money and continue mass production.

In the end, if the money cannot be spent, find a department that has not yet produced additional investment, and delay it until the next cycle.

Of course, there is also a 5 million charitable fund, which can also be used as a means of last resort to spend money.

Anyway, Pei Qian's calculations are not optimistic, but it can almost stand it.

These are all estimates. If everything goes well, the system funds will definitely be reduced by 10 million before settlement.

Pei Qian's goal is not high. At that time, he will lose four or five million in small losses, convert himself four or five million, and get a system reward by the way. If the five months are converted into a monthly income of one hundred thousand, it is not a waste of work.

Of course, this money is not earned all at once. Every week, there will be a sum of money in the account. It is still necessary to arrange the order of spending on various projects and continue to invest money. It is impossible to spend all of this money at once.

Pei Qian was counting when someone knocked on the door.

Looking up, it was Li Yada.

"Pei... President Pei."

"Nei, should we prepare to develop a new game?"

"Or, a dlc for "Back to the Shore"?"

"Everyone is a little free."

Is it okay to take the initiative to ask for a mission

Pei Qian was quite dissatisfied with this kind of active work attitude.

But I didn't say much, I could only pretend to say deeply: "Don't worry, let everyone recharge their batteries, and there will be very important tasks to be handed over to everyone in a while."

Pei Qian himself didn't think about what kind of tasks he would assign to Tenda's game department.

For those conventional games, the chance of success is too high, and Pei Qian is really not interested.

Don't throw 50 million in it and smash a cash cow, which is completely different from President Pei's goal at the beginning.

Li Yada nodded: "Ah, okay. Then, Mr. Pei, call me anytime you have a task."

After Li Yada went out, Pei Qian slumped weakly on the seat.

It's hard being a boss!

Every day, I have to rack my brains to arrange work for these employees, and let them idle for two days, and then I come to my door.

It's hard to beat!

"Ding ding."

A message is received on the phone.

Pei Qian picked up the phone and saw that it was sent by Chang You.

"Mr. Pei, the team has almost been assembled. I will arrange another person to set the work location this week, and the work will be officially started next week."

"Also, we got the moving fee for the design here. I'm very excited. The logo of Outu Technology has been driven out overnight. You can take a look."

There are pictures below.

Pei Qian opened it and found that it was an interesting logo.

At first glance, the outside is a shape that approximates a rectangle, while the inside is two circles stacked in a complex way.

The rectangle and the circle are overlapped in a special way. One of the long sides of the rectangle is twisted and turned into a round side. It can be vaguely seen that this is a change of two capital "t".

That is to say, this figure is the product of the change and combination of the four letters "otto".

At first glance, it looks a bit like a rectangular eye, but there are double pupils in the eye socket.

If you look closely, it looks a bit like a Mobius ring.

Other than that, the way the two circles in the middle overlap is kind of like the symbol for "infinity" in numbers.

This logo is relatively simple, and it looks quite compelling against a solid color background, which is quite post-modern.

Pei Qian couldn't help but sigh, this is a talent.

With such a dirty brand name, otto can make such a tall logo

At that time, this logo will be stamped on the back of the mobile phone, maybe it can really bluff people.

And it's not the only logo.

The second logo uses two "ten" and two "○" to form a handle-like shape. "Ten" is on the upper left and lower right, and "○" is on the lower left and upper right, respectively. The layout is similar to the handle, and the two ○ are like the two joysticks of the handle.

This logo is no longer a solid color, the shape has become more complex, and the colors are also used very boldly, which makes people easily reminiscent of game elements.

The third logo is the most well-established, with a row of otto capital letters, rounded and upright, and it looks decent, in line with the usual style of technology companies.

The designer came up with three solutions, namely:

abstract;

game type

Alphabetical.

It should be planned to let President Pei determine one.

Pei Qian looked at it, and it seemed that they were all good, so he replied: "All good. Let's keep them for now. After the design of the mobile phone is completed, it will not be too late to decide which solution to use."

Friday, November 12.

Pei Qian plans to go to Realize Dream Ventures and find Ma Yang.

Originally wanted to go yesterday, but just in time for Double 11, Pei Qian bought some messy things online and was delayed.

The courier hasn't arrived today, just in time to go to Lao Ma's side for a turn.

The 20,000,000 yuan for Yuanmeng Ventures had already been paid as early as Monday. It has been five days, and part of the money should have been spent.

However, Pei Qian estimates that according to Ma Yang's urination, he should still be struggling, and at most he will spend two or three million at most.

Although Pei Qian has repeatedly emphasized to Lao Ma that he should take action when he should, don't hesitate.

But anyway... that's 20 million.

Pei Qian was afraid that Ma Yang would be reluctant to spend money, so he wanted to see the situation of Dream Realization Ventures, and by the way, do some ideological work for Lao Ma.

Dream Realization Ventures has already rented an office space, which is about a fifteen-minute drive from Tengda's side, and is also in a high-end office building.

Pei Qian came to the office of Yuanmeng Venture Capital according to the address and walked in quietly.

There was a thick carpet on the ground, so Pei Qian stepped on it without making any sound.

The huge company is currently empty, but someone can be heard shouting inside, making the whole company full of echoes.

"Quick, you can hit and hit!"

"Kill this crispy skin first!"

"Hurry up and save me!"

"Escort! Escort! Protect President Ma!"
