From poor god to richest man

Chapter 16 Mire Networks
The progress of recruiting employees was much faster than Zhen Qiong expected, but in just three days, he recruited all the employees, a total of 20 people.

The reason why the manpower was filled up so quickly was mainly because of the reputation of "Curse of Dawn". When everyone heard that Qiongshen was recruiting, many people came to apply.

In addition, everyone felt that with just one game, Zhen Qiong earned more than one billion Longhuang coins, and this number is still rising.

No matter how you look at this company, Qiongshen is many times more reliable than most small companies.

Many fresh graduates first gain experience in small companies, and then move to large companies and climb up the ladder step by step.

Now that Qiongshen is recruiting and has named fresh graduates, why don't they give it a try?

And Zhen Qiong didn't have high requirements for employees, so those who gave it a try passed Zhen Qiong's interview one after another and became a member of Qiongshen.

Although the twenty new employees are all majors in game design, Zhen Qiong feels that such a team with no experience and no experience can do anything for themselves?
Put "Curse of the Dawn" into the hands of these people, and it might be out of stock within a few months.

That would be great news for Zhen Qiong.

For the time being, Zhen Qiong doesn't need to worry about the new employees. His next concern is another big matter - the acquisition of an online game company.

After "Curse of Dawn" became popular, Zhen Qiong had this kind of plan, but Zhen Qiong didn't want to do it herself, so this matter was handed over to Wen Wan'er.

And this is a technical job, which cannot be done in a short period of time.

In addition, even if the acquisition is successful, there is no suitable office space, and people don't know where to put it, so it was not until recently that this matter was put on the agenda again by Zhen Qiong.

And Wen Wan'er was also well prepared. When Zhen Qiong asked how the progress was going, she immediately gave Zhen Qiong a list of companies that were eager to sell recently and seemed to be a little hot.

The first company, called East Illusion Game Company, has several games under its umbrella, the most famous one is "The Holy Oracle of the Sky Cup", a large-scale 3D MMORPG.

The number of people online at the same time reached 65 at the peak. Even though the popularity has dropped, the number of people online at the same time remains at around 20.

However, because the boss of the company lost everything in the casino and owed a huge debt, in order to pay off the debt, he had to sell the company, asking for 8000 million Longhuang coins.

"It seems that the boss of this company really needs money urgently. Otherwise, with the size of their company's game, 8000 million is cheap, but I don't want it."

Zhen Qiong turned the page directly without any hesitation. He was here to lose money. No matter how the game company looked at it, it could help him make money, so he decisively passed.

What's more, even he thinks the purchase price is cheap, other capital will be indifferent?
There will definitely be some wrangling and bidding at that time, Zhen Qiong doesn't want to waste time.

And the most important thing is that Zhen Qiong doesn't want to have any interaction with gamblers.

The second company, called Real Westland Game Company, also has several games under its umbrella, but the most popular one currently is a 3D online game called "Ancient Tower of Good and Evil".

This is a turn-based game. Although some gameplay is relatively backward, it wins because of the beautiful picture quality.

And also invited a popular singer to sing a song specially for him, this song is also included in the singer's latest album.

The boss of this company didn't gamble, but he kept several lovers and deceived many young girls who were inexperienced in the world.

In their rivalry and jealousy, someone was at a disadvantage and was about to be kicked out.

As a result, the woman's heart became cruel, and she came to a dead end, stabbing out the evidence of tax evasion by the company's boss.

When the relevant departments investigated, they found that several hundred million had been missed, so they immediately punished the boss.

In order not to be caught, the boss must not only make up for the missed taxes, but also pay late fees, etc. Therefore, the boss can only sell the company to fill this huge hole.

The asking price is 500 million Longhuang coins.

One thing is certain, even if this boss fills in the pits, his personal assets will never exceed five figures, falling from the clouds to the bottom.

"Scumbag! Serve it right! Goodbye!"

Zhen Qiong resolutely turned the page again. The problem of this company is similar to that of the previous one. It can also make money and waste a lot of time.

Especially since he knows that if the fans go crazy, they will want to throw coffins on their idols.

Aiwujiwu, a game that supports idol endorsements, has also become a way for fans to "show loyalty".

Even many fans don't play this game at all, they just buy some idol-related things in the game, such as skins based on idols, or other consumption.

This popular singer has fans all over the world, Zhen Qiong dare not take this risk.

Moreover, the boss of this company really disgusted him, and he didn't even think about giving money to this kind of scumbag.

After flipping through a few more pages, after passing two companies with good prospects, but the funds could not keep up, Zhen Qiong's eyes were finally attracted by one company.

There is only one game in the quagmire network, and it is a 2D horizontal fighting game.

Thanks to the advancement of technology and the innovation of hardware, 3D games in this world are in a period of vigorous development.

All the popular games currently on the market are 3D without exception. Even Wen Wan'er screened out the game companies that intend to sell, and their games are all 3D.

2D games belong to the product of the previous era, and either gradually turn into 3D, or they can only be eliminated.

This quagmire network is still so stubborn. It made a 2D online game and said it was for feelings.

How much is love worth?

Zhen Qiong can use his experience of losing money in his previous life to tell them that sometimes feelings are worthless.

Because he paid for his feelings, he suffered heavy losses!

The same is true for the quagmire network. After the game is made, it cannot make ends meet, and even the wages of the employees are almost unable to be paid. The boss has no choice but to sell the company.

"The asking price is 500 million Longhuang coins, which is a bit cheap, but it doesn't matter, I can throw money into it desperately. Anyway, it is a game that has been verified by the market and can't make money. The more you vote, the more you lose!"

"Quagre Network, what a good name! All the trial funds of the Son of God will be sunk into your 'Quagmire'! And the name of the game, "Poisonous Milk War", sounds very auspicious, just you Already!"

Thinking of this, the corner of Zhen Qiong's mouth could not help but raise a smile.

Wen Wan'er saw this evil smile that she had never seen before, and her heart beat a little faster.

"Calm down! Wen Wan'er! Calm down!"

Wen Wan'er took a deep breath calmly, then smiled and asked, "Mr. Zhen, have you seen a suitable game company?"

"Yes. Just this quagmire network. You arrange a time and get this company into your pocket as soon as possible."

"Oh... yes. Mr. Zhen."

Among all the companies Wen Wan'er found, Miqian Network is the only one that is still losing money, and she uses it to make up the numbers.

Although other companies have various problems, at least their games are still popular and profitable.

Although the company sold at a higher price, it was able to create value immediately after taking over.

"Could it be that Mr. Zhen saw some hidden business opportunity? But he didn't have any other capital, so he showed interest in this company! Or did Mr. Zhen buy a game company just for fun?"

Although her heart was full of doubts, Wen Wan'er immediately set about arranging the acquisition.

Unless Zhen Qiong takes the initiative to explain or needs some reference, Wen Wan'er will not ask more questions. This is her professional quality and what Zhen Qiong is most satisfied with her.
