Whether using the 2.0 model or 3.0 model, Li Mu's goal is to first invest about fifty companies nationwide, create the model, and then use the ready-made model to tell stories to the capital.

As long as there is a story to tell, the capital party will be willing to invest money. As long as the capital comes in, the subsequent large-scale development will be no problem. Li Mu can dilute most of the equity to capital. He does not seek to make money by making money by purchasing commercial real estate appreciation. Money can be earned by capital. He only wants to use Internet cafes to promote the development of the Internet and the development of the Internet user group, promote the development of Shenzhou and the development of the Internet cafe desktop system.

After basically figuring out Li Mu's thoughts, Zhao Kang was a little worried that he was not as good as Li Mu, and he had such a good brain. If he was really responsible for such a large investment project, he was worried that he would not be able to deal with it.

Li Mu was not worried. He felt that what he needed to do this is the first person he could trust, not the person with strong abilities.

People with strong abilities can be hired by Zhao Kang to make up for his personal abilities, but he must be controlled and supervised by this project.

In Li Mu's opinion, this project itself has nothing to do with the Internet. It is an offline heavy asset project, involving a large number of offline procurement and real estate transactions. If there is no trustworthy person to control it, Li Mu will definitely be uneasy.

Regarding the investment and equity of the chain Internet cafe project, Li Mu's idea is that Zhao Kang will register the company and invest 50 million in start-up capital first, which will be jointly invested by himself and Zhao Kang. The investment ratio is 9:1, the shareholding ratio is 8.5:1.5, and Li Mu will give up an additional 5% of the shares to Zhao Kang as an incentive for him.

Zhao Kang had no objection to this. As early as when he followed Li Mu to Yanjing to go to school, he had made up his mind to follow Li Mu wholeheartedly. For him, his thinking pattern would only question himself, but he would never question Li Mu.

After the two set up these details, Li Mu began to sort out the time nodes.

Internet cafes are currently developing well and national policies are gradually relaxed. After the policy of "computer entering the city" is launched, Internet cafes will surely usher in a new spring. This is the industry background. With its own positive energy Internet person, the attitude of the government to the people towards Internet cafes has changed greatly.

However, school is about to start in September, and there are less than three months left before the first SARS case appears; there are still half a year before SARS is introduced into Yanjing. After half a year, the panic of SARS will sweep across the country. By that time, Internet cafes will enter a short period of cold winter.

Li Mu calculated that if there is no capital in the early stage, the progress of Internet cafes should be relatively slow. However, if Zhao Kang speeds up, he should be able to open dozens of Internet cafes in advance before the end of the year. By that time, the model of his own chain Internet cafe project will be very clear.

By that time, as long as you find the capital party, the capital party will definitely be interested. As long as you speed up, you can get the financing before 2003 and before February 2003 at the latest. Not only will you not be affected by the SARS impact, but you can use large amounts of capital funds to speed up the construction of stores during the vacuum stage of SARS. Once SARS is over, a large number of new stores can be completed and opened.

If you can't get money before the SARS outbreak and want to raise funds to start an Internet cafe after the SARS outbreak, I'm afraid the capital will lose confidence. In that case, the entire plan will be stranded for at least several months. However, as long as the pace of progress is not too slow, the financing can definitely be obtained before the SARS outbreak. As long as the money is obtained, it doesn't matter if the capital party loses confidence during the SARS period. Anyway, if the money is given, there is no possibility of returning it.

After the basic plan was determined, Li Mu introduced Zhao Kang to the Shenzhou Wu Navy, who was still in Yanjing. After the Wu Navy participated in the discussions of the Economic and Trade Commission, Zhao Kang followed him to the Shenzhen Stock Exchange. The purpose was to allow Zhao Kang to establish a certain relationship foundation with Wu Navy first and understand the general situation of Shenzhou at the moment. Once the chain Internet cafe plan begins to be implemented, Shenzhou needs to cooperate closely. This is a chain Internet cafe, Shenzhou Computer and Taobao win-win situation. As a promoter, Zhao Kang has no need to mention his relationship with him, but he must be close enough to Wu Navy.

On Saturday, Kong Lingyu and Lin Qingya split into two groups for Li Mu's online game plan.

Kong Lingyu's talents in Muye Technology interview games include Xu Bo who came from Yangcheng; Lin Qingya invited the core members of the planning and development team of the Xishanju Studio of Kingsoft Company to have a private meal, trying to catch all the backbone forces of Kingsoft Xishanju in accordance with Li Mu's request.

Xu Bo arrived in Yanjing on Friday night. Muye Technology's hr booked a four-star hotel near the company. Because Xu Bo wanted to take this opportunity to have a good time in Yanjing, his return time was set on Sunday. After Muye Technology's hr booked him a Sunday flight ticket, he deliberately paid the hotel room until Sunday. This kind of considerate and generous made Xu Bo deeply realize the awesomeness of a large company.

Xu Bo's interview was arranged at 10 o'clock on Saturday morning. He was so excited that he almost didn't sleep much all night. What's rare is that he could still maintain an extremely excited mental state after getting up in the early morning.

Kong Lingyu attaches great importance to Xu Bo, because this person was seen and selected by Li Mu in so many resumes. Although there is no awesomeness in Xu Bo's resume, Kong Lingyu still dares not neglect it.

Xu Bo did not expect that the interviewer was the general manager of the entire Muye Technology. He originally thought that it would be great to meet the boss of the Muye Technology yy game business unit in this re-examination, but he did not expect that after meeting, he realized that the interviewer was Kong Lingyu, the second-ranked figure.

Kong Lingyu did not look down on Xu Bo at all. When Xu Bo handed his resume to Kong Lingyu, Kong Lingyu carefully read his resume out of politeness.

Xu Bo was a little nervous at this time. His resume was really not outstanding enough. In the face of such a powerful figure as the general manager of Muye Technology, he was afraid that his resume would be despised by the other party.

For this reason, Xu Bo looked at Kong Lingyu's expression seriously to see if he was disappointed and looked disdainful, even if it was just an inadvertent frown.

Kong Lingyu's expression was very calm after reading his resume. After reading the resume, he asked Xu Bo the first question: "How do you evaluate NetEase's "A Chinese Odyssey Online"?"

Xu Bo cummed his mind for a moment and said seriously: "There is more creative but not deep enough."

Kong Lingyu asked him: "What are the depth you mean in detail?"

Xu Bo said: "The depth I am talking about is not the relatively virtual level of the meaning of the game, but the depth of thinking during the development process of the entire game. I personally think that whether it is 1 or 2, the overall lacks in-depth thinking. Whether it is the architecture, setting or characters, the picture can only be considered a dodgy. However, because all aspects have barely passed the passing line and the overall balance is relatively balanced, the operating data is pretty good."

Kong Lingyu nodded and asked again: "If you were asked to revise "American Journey Online", what would you do?"

Xu Bo said: "In my opinion, many basic platforms of "American Journey Online" have been finalized, and it is basically impossible to make drastic changes. If it is really modified, you can only disassemble the separate parts on the original basis, improve and modify them bit by bit, and change the soup without changing the medicine. The best way is to quickly develop a new alternative game while "American Journey Online" is not dead yet."

Kong Lingyu asked: "If you were asked to develop this alternative game, how would you prefer to position it?"

Xu Bo said: "I actually considered this issue. Many problems of "World Journey to the West" are congenital and cannot be solved at all, but it has a certain user base and brand foundation. After all, the classic "World Journey to the West" is known to everyone in China, and it is also the one with the most extensive imagination space and the most full game elements among the four masterpieces. So I personally tend to redevelop a game based on "World Journey to the West" and "World Journey to the West". This game must correct all the innate shortcomings of "World Journey to the West" when it is structured, and then add more advanced, more reasonable and more suitable game settings for players, and launch them as a substitute for "World Journey to the West".

Kong Lingyu didn't understand the game, and he couldn't help but nodded slightly when he heard Xu Bo talk.

Xu Bo expressed two very important advanced thinking in this passage, one was to take advantage of the situation to market, and the other was to popular IP concepts.

The so-called taking advantage of the situation is actually a free ride. "American Journey Online" has a certain foundation. If you abandon "American Journey Online" and develop "The Legend of Condor Heroes" or "The Legend of the Condor Heroes", this is equivalent to starting from scratch, which is far less cost-effective than developing new games based on "American Journey Online".

The so-called popular IP concepts are those widely known intellectual property rights that can be used to develop in multiple fields. Products derived from intellectual property naturally have enough fan base, and it is much easier to promote or convert. The carrier of popular IPs can be a book, a game, or a movie or even a song.

Although it was only a hot concept after more than ten years, this thinking pattern had already emerged very early. To put it bluntly, the reason why NetEase developed "A Chinese Odyssey Online" was to use the two super IP concepts of "Journey to the West" and "A Chinese Odyssey" movies for marketing. In the next few years, Jin Yong's novels will basically be developed into online games, which itself is a kind of IP thinking.

Xu Bo also realized the wide influence of "Journey to the West" among more than one billion people in China. In addition, CCTV's "Journey to the West" TV series has been in its enduring popularity over the years, "Journey to the West" has become China's largest super IP. None of them, it is perfect to use this IP to make games.

The best thing is that if you want to use Mr. Jin Yong's novel to develop a game, you have to ask Mr. Jin for permission and pay. However, the super big ip of "Journey to the West" is not only the largest in China, but also completely free, and anyone can use it.

The reason why Zhou Xingchi and other filmmakers continued to shoot Journey to the West in the hottest era is to put it bluntly because of this consideration. Xu Bo was able to realize the significance of the big IP in "Journey to the West" in this era, and his vision was indeed extraordinary!
