290 【Doing Good】
When it comes to this point, Yao Xiaoguang didn't doubt it anymore. After all, from the perspective of business model, Toutiao must have to make games, and it took too much time to slowly form a game team from beginning to end. In addition, there are competitors like Teng Xun, who may not be able to compete with Teng Xun just by relying on high salaries to poach people. It is very reasonable to launch a share model.
As for whether there will be any changes in the future, it will be a matter of the future. If it remains unchanged in recent years, it will be enough to make him earn money for the rest of his life working in Tengxun.
After thinking it through, Yao Xiaoguang nodded and agreed: "Mr. Zhou said so, then I agree to join the headlines."
Zhou Yujie nodded and said with a smile: "Okay, Mr. Yao is welcome to join the headlines, but I still have another request."
Yao Xiaoguang smiled and said, "Please tell me, Mr. Zhou."
Zhou Yujie said: "The current game team of Toutiao is not large enough. We also have some games in development, but the personnel are relatively tight, so I hope that after setting up the studio, Mr. Zhou can develop a game for me first.
Because it is a game for the head office, we will pay an additional amount of funds to your studio alone.”
"What kind of game?" Yao Xiaoguang asked.
Zhou Yujie said: "The name of this game is Honor of Kings. Because it involves commercial secrets, the content of the game will be informed to you when Mr. Yao joins the company."
The founding team of "Honor of Kings" in later generations was Tianmei Studio led by Yao Xiaoguang. Although they do not have this idea yet, since they were born from them, it is the most suitable team for his development.
After all, "Honor of Kings" is different from mobile games, and the content in it is relatively complicated. Zhou Yujie has only played games. He can tell some rough settings, but it is not clear if it involves deep information.
Redeveloped by the original team once may be different from later generations, but the risks are much smaller.
"Okay, no problem." Yao Xiaoguang agreed readily.
Since it is a studio cooperation model, it is equivalent to being a subsidiary of Toutiao and a partner, so it is normal to do some tasks arranged by the headline company.
Moreover, since the studio model is adopted, he will be responsible for the establishment of the studio team. Although the salary of members will be responsible for Toutiao, no matter what, since you have received the share, it will definitely drop in terms of stable income.
Toutiao’s studio is just without risks, but not without any losses. If you cannot develop a good game for a long time, then all members will naturally have to earn lower income than the normal working model, and the studio may also be disbanded in a few years.
Not to mention the future, the studio also needs to introduce talents in the early stages. Although these people are definitely willing to get the opportunity to get rich at the cost of a slight reduction in salary, if they can still develop the head office games in the early stages to obtain additional income, it will naturally be more friendly to employees.
Of course, this may also delay your own time in developing games, but there is no such perfect thing in this world.
Zhou Yujie nodded and said, "I hope Mr. Yao can come to Toutiao as soon as possible. I will also make early support. No matter how many people you bring, you will arrange accommodations with steadily."
Another advantage of poaching Yao Xiaoguang is that he is able to bring a bunch of people from Teng Xun with his fame. These are the people with the highest development experience in the whole country. If Toutiao gets them, the game business will grow rapidly. After all, with Toutiao's current scale, the entire game department cannot rely solely on the popular games in Zhou Yujie's mind. The development ability itself is the king.
"Thank you, Mr. Zhou." Yao Xiaoguang said with satisfaction.
...
After dealing with Yao Xiaoguang, I waited for a few more days. After Lin Youde returned from Yanjing, the heads of various core business departments of Toutiao Company gathered together, namely Lin Youde, the head of Toutiao, Zhong Guangwei, the head of Quxin, Chen Qihui, the head of Appliance Treasure, Zhu Wenbin, the head of Toutiao game business, Zhang Yidong, the head of Huifutong, Wang Lei, the head of group legal director Tao Chen.
These major businesses form the core pyramid of Toutiao Company. With each other's traffic, other online and offline giants are unable to withstand their terrible attack power in their own situation.
Although they don’t know the theme of the meeting yet, they already know that it is one of the most important businesses in the company’s future, and its importance is no less than Quxin and Toutiao. I just want to break the headlines and can’t figure out what kind of project will be so important?
Seeing everyone's faces were solemn, Zhou Yujie said with a smile: "Don't be so serious. Let me ask you a question first. What kind of company do you think Toutiao will be in the future?"
Lin Youde and others looked at each other. The environment was not that serious, so everyone was relaxed. Zhu Wenbin said: "If our current business is developing smoothly, Toutiao will definitely become the fourth level in the Internet industry, not weaker than Baidu, Tengxun and Alibaba."
Several other people also expressed their agreement. Among Toutiao's business, Toutiao is the most stable and the source of the company's core big data. In the field of news, even Tengxun News is not a rival with QQ traffic, let alone NetEase Sina.
With Toutiao, the monetization channel is basically stable. Needless to say, the game field is very successful now and has attracted many elite figures. In the future, even if it is not as good as Tengxun Games, it will be enough to occupy a certain market.
Today Youxuan currently has a first-mover advantage. Although there are many opponents, as long as you don’t make big mistakes, even if you can’t monopolize it, it is enough to control a certain market.
AppTrea is currently the number one in the industry, but it is easily affected by cross-bank impacts from mobile phone giants. However, in recent years, the remaining energy it has been used can also make a lot of contribution to Toutiao.
The only uncertain factor is Quxin, the opponent is Teng Xun. If you lose, Toutiao will be difficult to catch up with the current scale.
Zhou Yujie smiled and said, "Then what is the purpose of starting a business? Do we make money? In fact, our wealth has been spent in ten lifetimes now. No matter how large the company is, it is just a bunch of data, and it has no meaning."
Lin Youde thought for a while and said, "It's not about making money, it's about doing a career."
"Yes, Baidu, Tengxun, and Alibaba thought so too." Zhou Yujie said lightly: "Tengxun's idea was to communicate with users across the country. At that time, Ma Huateng didn't even have a profit model, just a passion, but now?
Ma Yun, once claimed that Alibaba's purpose was to make no difficult business in the world, but now Taobao is desperately trying to squeeze small merchants. Not only that, Alibaba personally took over Tmall and brought Taobao's traffic to its own platform. This is the rhythm of trying to kill ordinary merchants.
I don’t need to say much about Baidu. I accept any advertisements and have no bottom line at all.
I was wondering, will our future become like this?”
Others didn't say anything, only Lin Youde said calmly: "We have much stronger restraint ability, at least there are no medical advertisements on today's headlines."
Zhou Yujie nodded and said, "This is very good, but it is not enough to just use Google, just say "not doing evil" and I plan to use our abilities to take the initiative to [do good]."
