Chapter 157 Acquisition of Lava (please subscribe!)
"Why did you fail?"

Chen Rucheng was exasperated, and pointed at the computer screen: "Since the launch of "Race for Hegemony", nearly 20000 copies have been sold, and 30 yuan has been paid back. With this money, I can continue to recruit people and continue to improve!"

"Are you going to give up?"

Xu Changming said angrily: "Don't you give up?"

He pointed to the outside of the office and shouted: "Be sober, look outside, the lava is now at the end of the road, except you and me, everyone is gone, everyone has no hope at all!"

"The game has been online for so long. Except for the beginning, it has improved a bit. How is the situation now? You don't know?"

"It's amazing to sell more than ten or twenty copies a day, and one-third of them will be refunded. The comment area is full of negative reviews. Lava is over, and "Race of Hegemony" is also over!"

"This is a bad game, bad picture quality, bad gameplay, bad background, bad music, all bad!"

Xu Changming stood up suddenly, looked at the ceiling, and anger gushed out of his chest!

"Fuck!"

His sadness is no less than that of Chen Rucheng, but Chen Rucheng has not yet recognized the reality and is unwilling to admit defeat, while he already knows that the defeat is irreversible.

After the roar, Xu Changming sighed.

He lit a cigarette and chatted about the past.

"From the creation of Lava to the present, I have been following you and want to create a unique game. How beautiful and energetic it was at that time. You and I are willing to invest all our savings in it. Go forward and never look back!"

"But the reality has taught me to be a man. Now I only have 30 yuan left. I don't want to start a business anymore. Finding a job and spending the rest of my life in peace may be the best destination!"

"Ah Cheng, let's face the reality. At least we haven't fallen into foreign debts yet. Give up the money and find a job to work. Don't have any hope!"

"I'll tell you the truth, a company has contacted me. The other party is a big company in the industry, and the salary is not bad. I think you can go with me!"

After he finished speaking, he sat down quietly again, with his head down, unable to see his expression clearly.

Chen Rucheng pursed his lips, wanting to argue and refute, seeing his friend like this, he couldn't help but sigh!

He, who had never smoked before, lit a cigarette for the first time, staring at the computer screen in a daze.

Only the last 30 cash is left in the account, the equipment is still there, and the company is still there. After paying the rent and spending some money to recruit a few more people, there may be a chance to rise again.

But he didn't have much confidence.

When he was working on "Race for Hegemony" before, he and Xu Changming were high-spirited and like-minded, and they agreed that just by playing the game, it could attract millions of users and sell well.

But developing a game is more difficult than he imagined. All the savings from working for many years have been invested in it, and in the end it is only a semi-finished product that is useless except for the gameplay.

Fight hard, and be hit hard by reality!

These things almost crushed his spine and completely lost confidence in the future.

He didn't dare to be sure, if he recruited new people, he would definitely finish the game.

Let's talk about 30 yuan, once the salary is paid, and the rent, utilities and property are paid, how much money will be left?

I'm afraid I should be thankful if I persist for a month!
"Is it true that you can only accept your fate?"

Before he knew it, the fireworks burned his fingers, and he threw away the cigarette butt, not bothering to step on it, letting it burn to the last embers.

There was silence in the office.

The two were speechless.

a long time.

Xu Changming stood up and said, "This is the end of the matter, I've figured it out, Ah Cheng, I'm leaving, and you can transfer the money to my card some other day." After speaking, he picked up the coat hanging on the back of the chair and turned towards the door. go.

Chen Rucheng looked at his back as he turned to leave, as if he had made up his mind, he walked out in a few steps, stretched his arms suddenly, and grabbed him: "Chang Ming, do you really don't want to continue doing this?"

Xu Changming, who had already walked to the door, turned around and patted his hand away, annoyed, "I don't want to!"

Chen Rucheng asked again: "What if someone pays?"

"Who will pay?" Xu Changming turned his head and said with a wry smile, "Who will pay?"

Chen Rucheng gritted his teeth and finally said, "Moyu Company!"

Xu Changming was full of doubts, not knowing what he was talking about.

Chen Rucheng explained: "Actually, I have been hiding something from you, when CJ." He recounted the conversation with Mo Yu, and finally said: "Sorry, you knew the situation of the lava at that time, it has arrived At the time of the last fight."

"The reason why I kept it from you is because I'm afraid that this matter will affect the morale of the army, lest because of this matter, you will suspect that my motives are not pure or the news will be revealed, and the entire company will be lazy and slack."

"But now I'm telling you, it's the end of the matter, and there's no way out!"

"Since I want to work part-time, I want to be acquired and hired. The former should be better, and according to Mo Yu, he intends to continue to make "Race for Hegemony"!"

As soon as he said these words, he recognized the reality.

Xu Changming was stunned for a few seconds after hearing this, and then immediately asked: "Are you telling the truth?"

"Really!" Chen Rucheng nodded and said, "I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I was wrong"

Before he finished speaking, Xu Changming changed his decadent expression, waved his big hand, and interrupted directly: "Don't worry, I understand, I don't mean to blame you at all, you can call Mo Yu right now, right now! Mr. Mo calls! "

Chen Rucheng looked at his friend and said in a daze, "You don't work anymore?"

"Part-time job? Play a job!" Xu Changming waved his hand violently, and said harshly: "Isn't it better to be bought by someone than to go bankrupt and work? And you can continue to develop "Race Hegemony" and keep Lava's name. Money is a game, and I'm still working as a hammer!"

"Hurry up, call!"

"Okay, okay!" Chen Rucheng didn't hesitate at this time, and immediately took out his mobile phone to contact Mo Yu.

The moment the phone was connected, there was the sound of footsteps kicking outside the office, followed by a ringing sound through the wall.

Immediately afterwards, someone said: "Mr. Mo, it's here! I just don't know if anyone is still here!"

Mo Yu didn't expect that the situation of the lava was worse than he imagined.

He didn't call Chen Rucheng in advance, but flew directly to Haishi with people, in order to make a surprise attack, see the most real situation, and prepare for the subsequent acquisition price.

After finally finding the place, what came into view was such a desolate scene.

I couldn’t even turn on a light in the office. When I asked the security guard for the specific floor, the security guard immediately went to the company on the 9th floor that couldn’t afford the rent and was about to go bankrupt!
The tragedy of the lava is simply appalling.

"But it's fine."

"The current lava purchase price may be much lower than estimated!"

Mo Yu put away his thoughts, and the two sides briefly introduced themselves, then shook hands and sat down.

After taking his seat, he sized up Chen Rucheng a few times, and then said with a smile: "Mr. Chen, the magic city is gone, and the style is still the same!"

Chen Rucheng smiled wryly, and shook his head again and again: "Mr. Mo, don't make fun of me. I don't have any charm. Now I'm just a frustrated person who has reached a desperate situation."

"Haha~" Mo Yu laughed and said, "Although you look frustrated on the outside, as long as you don't feel frustrated in your heart, that's fine!"

He changed into a comfortable sitting position, relaxed his whole body, without putting on airs at all, and said directly to Chen Rucheng: "Let's not talk too much, let's get down to business. I believe you should be clear about my reason for coming. I have also seen the situation of the lava, Mr. Chen. Make a price! How much does it cost before you are willing to come and do things for me!"

Chen Rucheng and Xu Changming looked at each other, but they didn't expect Mo Yu to be so direct. After thinking for a few seconds, Chen Rucheng said slowly: "Mr. Mo, you should have investigated the current situation of "Race for Hegemony" very well. Lava Studio You have a panoramic view of the situation, I am really at the last desperate situation, and in such a situation, are you really willing to buy?"

Mo Yu replied: "Of course! To be honest, what I value is not the game, nor the lava, but you! The current gameplay in the market is rigid, but Mr. Chen, you can find another way and create a brand new gameplay. , This is something I admire!"

"I'm also a game designer. Before I succeeded, I was far worse than you are now. I didn't have three feet of land. I only had one computer and one person. I didn't succeed until the end!"

"Being able to get to where I am today, the innovation of gameplay is the magic weapon for my success, so I value people like you with unique vision, innovative thinking, and clear perspective!"

Chen Rucheng thanked: "Thanks to Mr. Mo's love! How about this, the consensus on the acquisition remains unchanged, but I still have a few requirements for the specific conditions, and I would like to ask Mr. Mo for your opinion."

His posture was very low, and Mo Yu was willing to listen to his thoughts.

"Speaking!"

"First of all, the name of Lava Studio remains unchanged. After being merged into Moyu Company, the name of Lava will still be retained. In the future, the name of Lava will also be affixed when the game is developed and launched; secondly, I hope that my friends can also join Lava, And continue to retain the current position." He pointed to Xu Changming next to him.

Mo Yu waved his hand: "No problem! These are the conditions I promised you, are there any more?"

"Yes!" Chen Rucheng nodded and continued: "Lava will continue to develop the game "Race for Hegemony". Of course, the game IP belongs to Moyu, but Moyu company will also bear all the corresponding follow-up development costs."

He is afraid!

Put all your savings into it and only make one semi-finished product. The investment is too high, and you can't hold on at all.

Of course, Mo Yu didn't have any opinion on this and readily agreed.

"As long as it is beneficial to all expenses incurred in game development, promotion, and marketing, within the scope of my ability, I will not block anything!"

With his statement, Chen Rucheng breathed a sigh of relief, and Xu Changming also relaxed a lot.

The two were actually very worried that Mo Yu would cancel "Race for Hegemony" or set up obstacles in the development of the project. Now that Mo Yu had personally expressed his opinion, they immediately let go of their nervousness and put a smile on their faces.

With these three conditions as a foundation, Chen Rucheng began to talk about some remuneration and expenses later.

The two sides chatted until the evening, and finally reached a final agreement.

Moyu Company purchased all the shares of Lava Studio at a price of 200 million yuan, the IP of "Race for Hegemony" and all the codes of the game program, and set up a separate Lava Studio development team within the company, with Chen Rucheng as the chief planner of the studio and Xu Changming as its deputy , responsible for the development, planning and other technical work of all games under the studio, and Moyu Company will send personnel to be responsible for operations, promotion, finance and other work.

For all the games developed by Lava Studio, Chen Rucheng and Xu Changming can get 2% and 1% of the net profit of these games, and the rest of the income belongs to Moyu Company.

At the same time, for projects that have been approved by the company, the company shall not obstruct the appropriation of funds with improper reasons without any reason, and hinder the game development process.

The agreement was long, and in the end neither party had anything to say.

Mo Yu is also very generous. The development cost of "Race for Hegemony" is expensive, but the current situation is far from worth 200 million yuan. In order to buy people's hearts, he waved his hand and directly took out 200 million yuan to pay for it.

Chen and Xu worshiped on the spot, and their loyalty increased!

The next day.

Both parties signed the agreement under the witness of lawyers.

The moment the name was written and stamped, from then on, the first Lava Studio under Moyu Company, which was responsible for the development of RTS games, was officially established!
Dinner that day.

On the eve of waiting for the food, Mo Yu chatted about games.

"There is only one unique gameplay in "Race for Hegemony". The other aspects are a bit hard to describe. I have some ideas for improving it. You two can listen to it. If you find it useful, you can implement it in the game."
