Chapter 22 Universal Resort
After the video conference of the Administration Commission attended by Guan Qing and Qin Zhen, what was different from usual was that the two members of the committee, Elvin, Director of the Logistics Bureau, and Godin Stuso, Director of the North American Branch, came to the Magic City in person and booked a venue for the two major generals of the Oriental Branch to celebrate the success of the meeting at the Shangri-La Hotel Jade 36 Restaurant.
The two members of the committee went to the Demon Capital to establish relations with the Oriental Branch. From this action alone, we can see how far-reaching the project proposals submitted by Guan Qing and Qin Zhen were shocked to the senior management of the Administration.
At the meeting, even the most picky Director Stuso had no intention of questioning. After living under the pressure of MOR-0001's doomsday prophecy for twenty years, this was the first time he had seen real hope of surviving danger. He was not without somewhere to be picky, but he didn't want to.
He hopes that all this is true.
Erwin hoped that Yucheng would be a good thing from the beginning, because Qin Zhen was once a member of the Logistics Bureau, and the Logistics Bureau would definitely get considerable benefits for the future plan led by her. He just envied the director and executive director of the Oriental Branch, who could have high-quality projects and talents like Qin Zhen and Chu Qiancheng.
To put it bluntly, Elvin really wanted to suck the green European air of the straw.
"Drink less water." Qin Zhen reminded Guan Qing.
"Um?"
"Ten dishes, drink a sip of water for each dish, and you will go to the bathroom later." Qin Zhen lowered his head and said.
"..." Guan Qing covered his cheeks and smirked nervously at Elvin and Godin. The appetizing small French pastry cake that just now was actually served with pepper, and he was not allowed to drink water, which made him feel very uncomfortable.
"Director Manager is so young and promising. Not only is he the top leader of the scientific research team of the Oriental Branch, but he can also take into account administrative work. He makes R108 so vivid that the committee praises you." Erwin raised his water cup gracefully and took a sip of water, saying with a smile.
"I'm too proud, Elvin, this is all the help of my colleagues and the result of everyone's efforts." Guan Qing said honestly.
Elvin and Godin looked at each other and both smiled. They were not used to the humility and pragmatism of Orientals. In the West, the workplace values personal abilities, mainly reflected in leadership. No team leader would emphasize the abilities of employees at high-level meetings unless it was to set off oneself.
"This time, we are here to celebrate the two of you, to celebrate the approval of the committee and to establish your own gaming community in the Magic City, and there is also a reluctant request." Erwin glanced at Godin, and Godin nodded solemnly.
"Oh?" Qin Zhen and Guan Qing looked at each other, and both knew that the key point was coming.
"The hosting projects jointly organized by our Logistics Bureau and North American Branch have always been linked to Huanyu Cinema. Most of the groups involved in the construction of Huanyu Cinemas of various continents are companies controlled by the Logistics Bureau and North American Branch. But recently, we have encountered great problems." Elvin sighed when he said this.
"What's the problem?" Guan Qing and Qin Zhen asked in unison, mentally nervous. When they heard that they encountered problems, they were afraid of being beaten by Qiufeng. The Eastern Branch has made too much money recently, so it is normal for other departments to get a share of the pie. Erwin is Qin Zhen's old boss, so he casually asked for billions of dollars, and it is uncomfortable to give it or not.
"The film and television industry has been in a slump recently. People are increasingly dislike the Hollywood storytelling method." Godin said bluntly, "The popular screenwriter routines in the international community are so annoyed. However, the new theories cannot be recognized by the industry overlords who dominate the film and television industry, which leads to the inability to produce new stories and the old works being sold. The biggest hit is Huanyu Cinema."
"Oh, in the past, Star Wars, Transformed Mechas, Migou Tang Ge, Cretaceous Amusement Park were all dreams of generations, but because the subsequent sequels became worse and worse, the producers flew out of the water and stuffed many ideological things into it. Now even children don't watch these things anymore, so they would rather stay at home to play games." Erwin said with a wry smile.
"In the past, a ticket for Huanyu Cinema could be sold for 748 yuan on a specific day, but now no one buys it for 300 yuan on a specific day." Godin became more and more excited, and he no longer cared about his demeanor and said while chewing beef.
"It's okay, I think Huanyu Cinema can still be maintained in the country." Qin Zhen said.
"It can't be maintained anymore." Godin shook his head repeatedly, "As soon as Huanyu Cinema is finished, our shelter projects will have no money to maintain. They can only be controlled by dream machines or handed over to richer departments. It's difficult."
"Do you need the Oriental Branch to invest in shares?" Guan Qing asked.
"Will you invest in a dying project?" Elvin asked back.
"This..." Guan Qing glanced at Qin Zhen. Qin Zhen glared at him and said with his eyes: Shut up.
"Ervin, let me guess, do you want the House of Strange Things Group to settle in the Capital Huanyu Cinema?" Qin Zhen asked.
"Haha, it's worthy of you." Elvin said with a smile. "It's already a common phenomenon for game companies to settle in Huanyu Cinema. Similar theme parks are everywhere in the capital Huanyu Cinema. These theme parks have been hit by the Great Depression of Games in the past few years. They are now closed and have left a bad reputation in the business and entertainment industry. I guess you don't want to get involved."
"..." Qin Zhen fell silent. Elwen was extremely smart. He should have seen at a glance that she didn't want to get involved in the unfinished business of Universal Studios. But he must have a proposal that he could not refuse. It depends on how he used his strange business acumen this time.
"My suggestion is that the Oriental Branch cooperates with us to build a brand new Magic City Huanyu Resort. We give up all our film and television projects and turn the entire resort into a future community with the theme of "Dry Bone Town" and "New Edo City", a miniature human area." Erwin said this and glanced at Goding.
Godin nodded with his lips and his eyes looking forward.
"Our game is the only theme?" Guan Qing was excited.
"Yes. In addition to your proposals being crucial to the Administration, your games are also the hottest project in the business world now. As long as the news of your cooperation with us in Huanyu is announced, the stocks of Huanyu Cinema-related companies will be resurrected. You will get the experience of building theme parks and related talents accumulated over the past hundred years of Huanyu Cinema to create your future community to the fullest." Godin said excitedly.
"Just as the Orientals often say, win-win," Elvin said with a smile.
"It's OK, but the House of Strange Things Group needs absolute dominance in the construction of Huanyu Resort. A group of laymen who come to point fingers at our game themes will ultimately reduce the attractiveness of the theme park to the player community and greatly reduce the value of the project." Qin Zhen said in a deep voice.
"We just hope that House of Strange Things can dominate the construction of the resort." Godin said firmly, "I've had enough of those idiots with a lot of brains, let them go to hell."
"Happy cooperation!" Qin Zhen was overjoyed and stood up excitedly to shake hands with Godin and Elvin.
Guan Qing also stood up.
Elvin and Godin looked at him.
"I'll go to the toilet." Guan Qing smiled awkwardly.
...
On this day, Chu Qiancheng came to the Future Studio and found that Xiaoling appeared in the three-dimensional large screen early, just like a little creature living on the table, waving at him repeatedly.
"Xiao Ling, are there any good things today?" Chu Qiancheng hurriedly sat in front of the workbench with a smile.
"Hehe, I can't say anything. To be polite, I want my mother and Sister Zhenzhen to notify you in person." Xiaoling said shaking her head.
"Oh. But didn't you tell me?" Chu Qiancheng teased her.
"This doesn't count. I just said that I had something happy today, but I didn't say anything, so this doesn't count." Xiao Ling said clearly.
"Ah! What you said makes sense." Chu Qiancheng quickly took out his cell phone and glanced at the news in the group.
You know the work group and the people there are people sending red envelopes. Chu Qiancheng suddenly felt the pressure and quickly sent big red envelopes in both groups, and then went to see what happened.
It turned out that the group was celebrating that the game opened up sales overseas. Nearly 100 million copies were sold in North America alone, pushing the total sales of the game to 400 million, and the dream machine also reached 400 million sales.
Chu Qiancheng felt like he was dreaming. He didn't dare to think about the 400 million sales ten years ago.
He quickly sorted out his emotions and practiced a surprise reaction so as not to ask Guan Qing and Qin Zhen to come to him to report the good news later. He looked calm and seemed particularly unsociable.
"Old Chu!" One hand was pressed on his shoulder.
"Oh my god, 400 million!" Chu Qiancheng quickly turned around and saw Qin Zhen and Guan Qing staring at him in amazement.
It's too early... Chu Qiancheng is a little depressed.
"Oh, is it 400 million?" Qin Zhen and Guan Qing spoke in unison.
"Don't you know yet?" Chu Qiancheng was also shocked. Isn't this kind of breakthrough in sales always the first to Qin Zhen to know, and then look for people everywhere to ask for red envelopes? She suddenly got rid of the low-level fun?
Qin Zhen and Guan Qing took out their phones and found that all the red envelopes in the group had been snatched away. Guan Qing shrugged her shoulders. Qin Zhen had a look of "missing 100 million".
"I have good news to tell you!" Qin Zhen put his phone back into his handbag, and a mysterious smile appeared on his face.
Chu Qiancheng looked at her dumbly, unable to think of any better news she could have.
"We want to build the Magic City Huanyu Resort in the Magic City. The only theme of the resort is your game." Qin Zhen said it like a machine gun.
"Isn't this the plan we had already decided?" Chu Qiancheng was stunned.
"This time we are working with Huanyu Resort. We have the experience and staff they have accumulated over a hundred years. We didn't start from scratch. The progress was many times faster, and it was definitely the top level in the industry." Qin Zhen was angry when he looked at Chu Qiancheng's ignorant look.
"Huanyu Resort..." Chu Qiancheng took out his cell phone and checked the information.
"You don't know about Lianyu Resort, right? You're a damn home!" Qin Zhen was anxious.
"Huanyu Cinema!" Guan Qing reminded.
"Oh~~~~~~" Chu Qiancheng suddenly realized, "That's good!"
