Chen Qiaoshan is very clear that in the next decade, the game industry will be the only ever-lasting industry. As a companion product, game trading platforms will also get a piece of the pie.

But unlike ordinary Internet companies, 5173 relies heavily on manual services. Although it is called an Internet company, it is essentially an e-commerce platform.

Relying on the huge domestic demand market, it is a matter of time before an annual transaction volume exceeds 10 billion. Due to the particularity of the game industry, the composition of 5173's employees is a bit special. More than 90% of the employees are front-line customer service and trading specialists. Conservatively estimated that 5173 will expand to a customer service team of more than 2,000 people within five years.

An Internet company with an annual profit of over 100 million and can provide nearly 1,000 stable jobs is definitely a rare existence for a small town on the border of Henan Province.

As the saying goes, wealth and honor do not return home, like walking in the night with a brocade dress.

Under the same conditions, Chen Qiaoshan naturally prefers to make some investments in his hometown.

In the last life, Zhang Bingxin placed the R&D team in the Shanghai Stock Exchange, and all the online customer service of thousands of people were arranged in Jinhua. Now it seems that 5173 is also the most suitable choice to settle in Dengzhou.

There was no need to hide Liu Chang, so Chen Qiaoshan explained the overall plan.

"Dengzhou? Where is that?" Liu Chang was a little confused. Henan Province is a major agricultural province and has always occupied the top domestic labor export list. But it is really hard to say about the Internet industry.

Chen Qiaoshan was a little helpless and explained: "Xiao Qin and I are from Dengzhou. The local economy is not very prosperous, the labor costs are low, and the traders and customer service of 5173 do not have high requirements for cultural level. If you understand twenty-six letters, you can get on the job after training."

The so-called trading specialist is an intermediary customer service. As long as you understand the trading process, you can easily get started. The requirements for education are also very low. As long as you can play games, there is almost no employment threshold.

Liu Chang had some concerns. Even as a friend, she had to remind him: "You have to think clearly that low labor costs are indeed a good indicator, but we are Internet companies after all, can Dengzhou's industrial supporting facilities keep up?"

This is just the point. In 2004, the country entered the most severe period of power supply. Peak power supply lockouts and power limits occurred frequently, and even Yanjing could not avoid it, let alone a county-level city under the agricultural province.

If the power supply cannot be guaranteed, it will be absolutely catastrophic for Internet companies. In addition, there is network access. Relatively speaking, human resources are not the most important consideration indicator.

Chen Qiaoshan said: "I have considered this and will prepare to provide 5173 with a round of financing of tens of millions in the near future. Internet companies of this scale are nothing in Zhongguancun, but in Dengzhou, they will definitely win huge tax reductions and preferential land policies."

If local governments want to achieve political achievements, they depend on GDP, taxation and employment.

Chen Qiaoshan knew very well that in this era, attracting investment was definitely the top priority.

Although 5173's business model is simple and crude, it can solve a large number of employment problems. Not to mention in Dengzhou, but also in Henan Province, it is one of the top leading Internet companies.

It can be imagined that once the transaction is implemented, 5173 is definitely a star enterprise in Dengzhou. As long as the development goes smoothly, it will only be a matter of time before UC Langma reaches the height of Guizhou Province.

Liu Chang's doubts are still not gone. Nowadays, the most difficult thing is to deal with local governments. In order to settle in Zhongguancun Industrial Park, she traveled countless times, but in the end she still had no results.

"To be honest, the book situation of 5173 is not optimistic. Whether it is expansion or relocation, funds are urgently needed, and it is not a small amount. According to your opinion, a land policy is required to settle in Dengzhou. Is this a preparation for a new office area? If this is the case, the 10 million yuan financing will definitely not last long."

Chen Qiaoshan smiled and said, "You may have misunderstood. I am talking about the first round of financing worth tens of millions of dollars."

"Are you sure you're not kidding?" Liu Chang couldn't sit still. She had been in Jinhua for quite some time. Her main job was to complete various audits. Compared with Chen Qiaoshan, she was the most familiar with the situation of 5173. No matter whether it was financial data or project valuation, it didn't seem that she could get tens of millions of US financial funds.

The reason is simple. Financing means selling equity. Even if you give 50% of the shares, the valuation of 5173 is as high as 20 million US dollars, which is obviously impossible.

With Chen Qiaoshan's usual style of conduct, he will definitely not give up his absolute controlling stake in the first round of financing, so there is still room for improvement in the valuation. In this way, Chen Qiaoshan's valuation of 5173 is as high as more than 30 million US dollars.

Financing requires one's own will. The valuation can be paid at a high price, but the investor is not a fool. The purchase price is only one million US dollars, and it is thirty times after one turn, which is a bit of a fantasy.

Liu Chang stared at Chen Qiaoshan and asked suspiciously: "Are you sure it is a financing of tens of millions of dollars? Is 5173 really so valuable?"

"Do you know how big the output value of the domestic game industry is? 3 billion yuan, this is just the beginning. With the development of the Internet, by 10 years, the scale will be at least ten times that of the current one. There is a market demand. 5173 has the conditions to replicate Kangsheng's success." Chen Qiaoshan had no pressure, and the valuation was blown out. As long as the trend was large enough, capital did not care about investment.

Liu Chang shook her head. It seemed that Chen Qiaoshan had not encountered too much setback. Although she was not clear about the specific basis, she had a kind of intuition that 5173 might really make a big splash.

…………

On the 24th, Yidian Blog was officially launched.

This time, Chen Qiaoshan spent a lot of money. After all, it was a newly opened blog platform. At his request, Yao Yong almost gritted his teeth and made a promotion plan worth millions.

Yao Yong is now the president of Yidian Technology, fully responsible for the operation of the forum and blog. Although he completed the 10 million quota and raised funds, he was just halfway through the account, and he spent one million quota, which made everyone feel distressed.

This is not counting. The key is that apart from reaching an online promotion agreement with Lynk & Cott, Chen Qiaoshan is not ready to do ground promotion at all, which is completely contrary to the current mainstream publicity model.

At present, more than half of Yanjing's bus stop signs, subway advertisements, and elevator advertisements are occupied by Internet companies, but Chen Qiaoshan just did the opposite, focusing only on online publicity and there was no movement offline.

Sitting in the newly moved in office, Yao Yong was quite nervous. Looking at Chen Qiaoshan sitting on the sofa opposite with his legs crossed, he couldn't help asking: "Dashan, see if the promotion plan is modified? Otherwise, it wouldn't cost much money if you invite some people to go to major universities to do publicity."

Chen Qiaoshan smiled and said, "Okay, do as I said, don't worry, it's definitely more effective than ground push."

Chen Qiaoshan is not opposed to advertising, but in this era, advertising has limited effectiveness, especially ground promotion, materials, travel, and transportation costs hugely. Sometimes he has to deal with monsters and monsters. The effect is average but it costs a lot, and it is absolutely half the result with twice the effort.

"Do you think the promotion plan you made is effective? Our technology cannot be the best. What if there are people who browse the rankings?" Yao Yong was very suspicious. The promotion plan was determined by Chen Qiaoshan himself. He created a blogger ranking based on the popularity of his weekly blog posts. Yidian Technology took out three laptops, ten mobile phones and one hundred stored value cards of various denominations, and rewarded bloggers with high popularity.

In order to prevent the rankings from being swiped, at Chen Qiaoshan's request, Yao Yong and Kangsheng's engineers optimized the system several times, but this did not eliminate the possibility of fraud. It is really hard to say how the bonus of more than 100,000 yuan per month is effective.

"Don't worry, this money will never be wasted." Chen Qiaoshan was not worried at all. When Taobao made a laptop sale, it caused netizens to have a collective orgasm. Now that he spent a lot of money on promotion, he will inevitably attract a lot of attention.

While chatting, Chen Qiaoshan answered a call and then stood up, looking as if he was about to leave.

Yao Yong was a little anxious, "The specific situation has not been counted yet, are you going to take a look?"

Chen Qiaoshan said: "Just call me back. Kangsheng went to a venture capital investor, I have to greet him."

"Which venture capital?" Yao Yong subconsciously asked, venture capital is the most popular existence in the IT circle, and he has the intention to start a business, so he is inevitably interested in this information.

Chen Qiaoshan knew his thoughts and couldn't help but smile: "Don't worry if you are from Shenzhen-Hong Kong Industry, Academic and Research Entrepreneurship Fund. When the technology improves a little, I will introduce you to a few investors. As for whether you can get the money, it depends on your personal ability."

Yao Yong shook his head helplessly. He hoped that Chen Qiaoshan would invest, but he would definitely have no hope in the near future. He could only focus on some technology first. The best result is to make a fortune like Wang Sifeng, and then think about the game engine.
