Pei Qian looked at the two of them. "That's the general idea. Do you understand?"
Wu Bin and Ma Yiqun nodded. "Understood!"
Pei Qian looked at their determined expressions and snickered in his heart.
You guys know nothing! He must have run off to some unknown place again!
Forget it, I'm already used to it.
Pei Qian saw that the two of them had an 'we understand' expression on their faces. They even looked at each other to confirm that they had thought of the same thing. At that moment, Pei Qian felt that any further words would be useless.
Anyway, no matter what went wrong in the process, as long as the result was not too different, it would be fine …
After sending Ma Yiqun and Wu Bin away, Pei Qian began to think about the game.
After thinking for another half an hour, he still had no clue.
Just then, the phone on the table rang.
He looked at the caller ID and saw that it was Shenhua Film's Lin Chang.
"Hmm? Why is he looking for me? "
Pei Qian was a little confused. He did not seem to have any projects to collaborate with Shenhua Films recently. However, he still accepted the offer.
Lin Chang's slightly anxious voice came through the phone. "Boss Pei, I have a very important piece of news!"
"I just found out that Sheng Yun Express, Home Corporation, Wolf Fang Live-Stream, and Homestay Delivery seem to be working together to target Tengda Corporation!"
"Not only that, they seem to be planning to look for big companies in the gaming, movie, travel, and other fields to rope them into this alliance!"
"This news was told to me by the CEO of a small film company. Although there is no accurate information yet, I think the possibility is very high. We have to be careful!"
Pei Qian was confused. "Eh? Their businesses had nothing to do with each other. How could they work together? Could it be that Sheng Yun Express and the delivery company shared a courier? Or maybe Home Group and Wolf Fang Live Streaming will do a rental live streaming program? "
Lin Chang did not know whether to laugh or cry. "Of course, that's impossible. However, even if these companies' businesses are not related, there are ways to join forces. It's nothing more than attacking Tengda in their own fields!"
"For example, they could compete with Tengda's industries in various fields such as express delivery, rental, live-streaming, take-out, games, and so on. Whether it's price wars, public opinion wars, or other means, they could use them all!"
"No matter how rich Tengda is, it can't possibly start a price war in so many industries at the same time, right? In this way, many industries' market shares may be squeezed out quickly. Once this happens, it will be very difficult to make a comeback! "
"That's not all. These companies more or less have the shadows of large capitals behind them. Once they see hope of completely destroying Tengda, these large capitals will probably encourage more companies to join. After all, they feel that Tengda wants to cut off their source of income. It would not be strange for them to do anything."
"I can only say that what Lu Mingliang said in the live-stream was a little impulsive. Actually, at that time, he could have just targeted Shengyun Express. It was a little too early to make enemies with other similar Internet companies. It was not wise."
"If we wait for Tengda to develop for another year or two and completely crush these companies in terms of size, our chances of winning would definitely be much higher …"
As Pei Qian listened, he could not help but smile. "No, Lu Mingliang's timing is perfect!"
Who would have thought that there would be such a good thing?
So many companies want to burn money with me?
That's great! I'm so happy!
Pei Qian could not contain his excitement. Suddenly, he felt that this settlement cycle had become extremely bright!
He had indeed spent a lot of money to acquire Finger Games previously, but it was in installments. Given Tengda's current ability to earn money, he might not be able to guarantee that he would incur a huge loss in this settlement.
He was mainly afraid that accidents would happen.
However, now that so many companies were burning money with him, the situation was different!
Even if Pei Qian wanted to burn money previously, he had to restrain himself. On one hand, he was worried that the business would expand too quickly. On the other hand, the System had strict restrictions. Thus, even if he organized activities, they were basically small ones. It was difficult for him to meet his target of burning money.
However, now that these companies were the first to start a money-burning war, the System would definitely relax its restrictions. He would be even more unrestrained in burning money!
This cycle, Pei Qian could lose a maximum of 150 million yuan. That was to convert 15 million yuan of Personal Wealth. As long as he succeeded, he would be able to earn back all the losses he had not made previously.
Not only that, but Pei Qian had three layers of insurance this cycle.
First, the money from acquiring Finger Games would continue to be spent in the future. What's more, the merger of GOG and IOI would also delay the development of the new versions and various marketing activities of the two games. Their revenue would be affected to a certain extent.
Second, Sheng Yun Express, Home Corporation, and other big companies would start a money-burning war. Tengda would definitely have to follow suit. They would definitely burn more money than before.
Third, there would be a lot of charitable donations this cycle. What's more, the cycle would be long. That meant that they could start some large-scale projects, including large-scale games, large-scale movies, and large-scale infrastructure projects like haunted houses.
With three layers of insurance, how could they not incur losses?
How could that be possible!
What's more, Pei Qian felt that the timing of Lu Mingliang's words was perfect.
If it was really as Lin Chang said, Lu Mingliang would not AOE all the internet platform companies. Instead, he would wait for a year or two, when Tengda's size had expanded a few times. Then, even if these big companies joined forces, they would not be able to cause too much damage to Tengda.
How could Pei Qian incur losses then?
However, the timing was perfect.
Tengda could not collapse. That was because its revenue was too stable, and its cash flow was too healthy. At most, the expansion of some businesses would be stopped or its market share would shrink. Other than that, it would incur losses.
Of course, the more money it lost, the happier Pei Qian would be!
He did not expect Lu Mingliang to inadvertently make a huge contribution again. What a loyal subordinate!
Lin Chang was stunned. "Eh? The timing is perfect? Perfect? "
No matter how he looked at it, it did not seem right!
He pondered for a while and said, "Boss Pei, did you prepare for this?"
Pei Qian sniggered. "You can say that."
He had indeed prepared for this. From the first day he established Tengda, he had been looking forward to this!
It was a pity that these big companies treated Tengda like a small fish and did not take it seriously at all. Later, they treated Tengda like the devil. They did not dare to fight back even when they were bullied.
Now, they were finally joining forces to target Tengda. What a joyous occasion!
Lin Chang heaved a sigh of relief. "Alright, I'm relieved to see you so confident. However, it's better to be careful, especially since Home Corporation and Sheng Yun Express are already envious. It would not be surprising if they do anything. "
Pei Qian nodded. "Don't worry."
After hanging up, Pei Qian almost could not suppress his excitement and wanted to slide to his knees in his office.
Alright!
Pei Qian would not even think of a way to deal with it. In any case, they could burn money. If Tengda had money, he would burn it as well. If not, he would just watch them burn it. In any case, he would happily incur losses and be done with it.
Pei Qian was in high spirits. He planned to take advantage of this festive mood to go to the games department to take a look.
That was because what happened just now suddenly gave Pei Qian some inspiration.
As long as he went to the games department to experience some excitement and inspiration, the prototype of the game should be out.
At that thought, Pei Qian strolled upstairs to Tengda Games.
Just as he walked to the door, he saw Yu Fei's fingers flying as he typed quickly on the keyboard.
From the looks of it, he might be writing a new book. Inspiration came and he typed very quickly.
Pei Qian approached Yu Fei's back with great interest. He realized that Yu Fei was indeed writing his new book. From the snippet he was writing, it seemed to be a cyberpunk theme similar to Tomorrow is Beautiful. What's more, it was quite fast. The writing software estimated that it was moving at about 3,000 kilometers per hour.
Tengda Games did not have any very important development tasks now. What's more, Yu Fei was specially allowed to write during work hours. Thus, everyone was used to this scene and no one bothered him.
Yu Fei typed for a while and suddenly felt that something was wrong. He turned around and was shocked.
"Boss Pei?"
He was a little surprised. When did Boss Pei come?
However, his surprise turned into ecstasy immediately.
Yu Fei stood up and asked, "Boss Pei, have you found the new person-in-charge of the games department?"
Pei Qian sniggered. "No, I'm here for the new game."
Yu Fei's face fell instantly. "Boss Pei, this matter really cannot be delayed any longer! Ghost General 2 has already been released, so I've completed my mission. My new book … "
Pei Qian smiled and said, "New book? Isn't it going quite smoothly? Even the speed at which I type has become faster. "
Yu Fei was stunned. "Er … my writing speed has indeed increased. Perhaps I'm more focused during work hours … no, that's not the point!
"Boss Pei, I've really used up all my inspiration. There's not a single drop left!
"The game mechanics of Eternal Fallen Samsara are derived from the plot. The highlight of Ghost General 2 is also the plot. I admit that. However, I really don't have any more plots to think about. If I were to be the main designer again, I would be irresponsible for the new project … "
Pei Qian nodded slightly and asked, "What's the theme of your new book?"
Yu Fei was stunned. "Cyberpunk. What's wrong?"
Pei Qian clapped his hands. "The theme of the new game is also cyberpunk! Don't you think that's a coincidence?
"Look, as long as you continue to develop this game, Tengda will buy the copyright of your book and promote it on Zhongdian Chinese Network as a key project.
"Isn't it great?"
Yu Fei was stunned. "Ah, this …"
He had not expected such a development at all.
Boss Pei wanted to create a new game with a cyberpunk theme? It was the same genre as his new book?
It couldn't be such a coincidence, right?
Could it be that Boss Pei did this on purpose? He specially created a cyberpunk themed game so that he could keep me as the main designer?
No, no, how could that be possible …
Yu Fei quickly abandoned this unrealistic thought and turned to think about the beautiful future that Boss Pei had described.
It sounded like … this offer was irresistible!
