Chapter 354: Bo Le and the Thousand-Mile Horse 2
Although Bai Zheli was young, and his clean, boyish appearance made him look rather naive, there was already a hint of a competent CFO about him.
"I’ve calculated, based on current trends, to meet our needs for the next two years, including factory space, hardware, manpower... conservatively speaking, we need an investment of seven million."
Seven million.
Jiang Chen’s fingers gently tapped on the table.
It’s no exaggeration to say that his current account couldn’t come up with that much money.
Only when faced with it did he understand why some billionaires can’t even come up with a few million in cash.
CX Entertainment, Tianci Capital, and adding in the Xiaoyao Studio that’s developing the virtual love game, he could now claim to own three companies, not counting the small projects he’d invested in piecemeal before.
Without comparing himself to big shots like Shi Zhenhua, he could at least be considered successful in his career, right?
But in reality, his cash...
Was just over two million left.
Of course.
Given the revenue from the virtual love game, establishing a data center wouldn’t bankrupt him.
The key question was whether it was worth it.
"Guang Yi, what do you think?"
Jiang Chen looked at Zhang Guangyi.
Zhang Guangyi was a bit embarrassed.
"It’s okay, whatever you’re thinking, just say it."
Jiang Chen said with a smile.
It was then that Zhang Guangyi mustered the courage and looked at the partners who had struggled alongside him.
"I want to lead everyone to create a great game company with Xiaoyao Studio. This virtual love game is just the beginning."
He didn’t directly answer the question, but his response was clear enough.
"That’s a big ambition."
Luo Peng teased with a laugh.
Poor yet resolute, the determination to not falter in achieving high aspirations.
The success of the virtual love game undoubtedly ignited the fighting spirit of youths like Zhang Guangyi, or more precisely, their ambition.
If they wanted to become a great game company, having their own server farm was indispensable.
"Since we all agree, then let’s do it."
Jiang Chen made the decision, possibly not knowing that this nod of his would, someday in the future, actually contribute to the birth of a data center, a colossus surpassing Penguin on a global scale.
At the same time, it also indirectly led to the creation of a company recognized by gamers worldwide as great!
After the meeting,
Zhang Guangyi, the head of Xiaoyao Studio, came over.
In reality, he couldn’t truly be considered Jiang Chen’s subordinate; Jiang Chen was just an investor. Their relationship was one of partnership, not subordination.
But this did not affect his gratitude and respect for Jiang Chen.
There are always talented individuals, but mentors like Bole are rare to find.
There are plenty of others like Zhang Guangyi at Dong University.
The success of the virtual love game actually had little to do with him.
If not for Pei Yunxi breaking tradition to endorse a game, not to mention the current craze, it probably wouldn’t have made any waves at all.
And if Jiang Chen hadn’t invested, he wouldn’t have even lasted until the game was designed successfully.
This year, when he went back for the New Year, he could become the focus of family discussions, the pride of his parents, all of which was bestowed upon him by the other party.
"President Jiang, we’ve discussed it as a group, we don’t want the first quarter’s dividend."
Jiang Chen frowned, "Why?"
Luo Peng and the other two also looked at each other.
"Since we’re going to set up our own servers, we should contribute as well."
According to the signed contract,
Xiaoyao Studio retains the operating rights of the virtual love game, with the revenue shared 30/70 with Tianci Capital.
Which means,
After the messy costs are deducted, the members of Xiaoyao Studio led by Zhang Guangyi get to take away thirty percent of the income.
It might seem unfair, but it’s important to recognize that the explosive success of the virtual love game was almost single-handedly driven by Jiang Chen.
If it weren’t for him paying a fortune to get Pei Yunxi, and it wasn’t for his funding to bolster Zhang Guangyi’s team, then with just the few ’kittens’ Zhang Guangyi originally had, even if they managed to launch the game, it would likely only have stayed alive for a month or two before having to shut down.
Maybe only a few days.
Examples like this are numerous.
Did you really think entrepreneurship was easy?
Being students from a first-class university, they were clear about the current times; being able to get thirty percent was already reason to be tremendously grateful.
"Is this a group decision, or did you coerce the group into making it on their behalf?"
Jiang Chen asked with a smile.
"This is everyone’s decision. In our studio, everyone is equal, practicing democratic decision-making, and there is no room for arbitrary power."
Zhang Guangyi quickly replied.
Jiang Chen fell silent for a moment.
"Then I’ll just say thank you to all of you."
He didn’t refuse.
Building the server farm was, after all, for the virtual love game.
And right now, he really wasn’t flush with cash either.
"Thank you, President Jiang!"
Zhang Guangyi was excited, oddly enough looking pleased as if he had found money, despite giving up the first quarter’s dividend.
Considering the current momentum of the virtual love game, it wouldn’t be a difficult feat for him to become a millionaire in three months.
Meaning that with a simple word from him, he had just given up a vast fortune that, to a student, seemed astronomical.
"Previously, seeing how reserved and introverted he was, I didn’t expect him to be so clever."
Luo Peng sighed with a smile as they walked out of the meeting room alongside Jiang Chen.
"He is articulate in plan and decisive in action."
Li Shao corrected.
This was in the Political Education Building, and the meeting room was provided by the university.
Dong University had long since opened its doors wide to them, fulfilling any request they made without question.
