Collection of Gods

Chapter 234 Genius Game Designer

The night falls, the wind is clear and the moon is bright.

SSTP Supercar Club Restaurant, where everyone who had just returned from China International Circuit was gathering for a cocktail party.

The light and shadow are blurred, and the drinks are intertwined.

All kinds of drinks and meals are of top international standards, and the environment is high-end and classy. The 1.3-square-meter venue can easily accommodate hundreds of guests invited to the reception.

At this time, the corner of the restaurant.

Cai Haoyu stood in front of the floor-to-ceiling window, holding a glass of water-cut whiskey in his hand. There was always a slight sadness between his eyebrows, and he looked obviously worried.

"Yo?"

"Haoyu?"

"Why are you lying here?"

"What's going on here?"

"Are you drinking alone here?"

Just when Cai Haoyu was distracted, a familiar voice suddenly came from behind, bringing his thoughts back here.

"Brother Lei?"

"Why did you come here?"

The man standing behind Cai Haoyu at this moment is Yao Lei.

"I was just wandering around, but I didn't expect to see you here." Yao Lei said with a smile, "What's wrong with you? You look sad?"

"Hey……"

"It's not a company matter yet."

"A little irritable."

Cai Haoyu sighed, but he didn't hide it.

The thoughtful Yao Lei, combined with Cai Haoyu's answer, already had some answers in his mind: "Did the research and development of "Genshin Impact" encounter difficulties?"

Cai Haoyu did not deny it, and said with a wry smile: "Brother Lei, I admit that I am a little ignorant. Originally, I thought that I had 8 million in my hand. Even if "Genshin Impact" burns more money, we can still resist it. As a result... …”

"How big is the gap?"

When Yao Lei heard this, he took a deep breath.

A total of 8 million yuan was burned to death by this guy?

This courage is really boundless!

Yao Lei's expression remained calm, but his heart was filled with turmoil.

"Um……"

"It's probably still 2 million short."

Cai Haoyu thought about it and then responded hesitantly.

"Whoa whoa……"

"2 million, that's not too bad."

"Wait in two days and I will introduce you to some investors. It should be easy to solve."

Yao Lei breathed a sigh of relief. He thought the gap on Cai Haoyu's side was big.

"Brother Lei..."

"You may have misunderstood."

"The 2 million I mentioned are US dollars..."

Cai Haoyu glanced at Yao Lei's calm expression and corrected him with a guilty conscience.

"puff!"

Yao Lei, who was originally drinking whiskey, spit out all the wine in one gulp when he heard Cai Haoyu's words. His original calmness was instantly shattered.

"Cough cough..."

"What do you say?"

"A gap of two hundred million dollars?"

"Are you really studying games or nuclear weapons?"

Yao Lei stared and couldn't help but jump a little.

When Cai Haoyu saw Yao Lei's reaction, he quickly took two tissues from the side and handed them to Yao Lei. At the same time, he said with a smile: "Brother Lei, to be honest, we didn't expect that researching large-scale 3A games would be so expensive at first. But now that the money has been spent, we can only fight with our backs and keep pushing forward, otherwise all the money we spent before will be wasted."

"Honestly, how much money have you invested in this project now?"

Yao Lei stared at Cai Haoyu and said with a slightly serious expression.

"Almost 3 million U.S. dollars." Cai Haoyu responded honestly.

For Yao Lei, a good big brother, he respects and trusts from the bottom of his heart.

Because Yao Lei is one of their company's angel investors, he gave them tremendous help in the early stages of starting their business, and he also provided great assistance in the subsequent financing process.

"This is simply a bottomless pit!"

"You are so courageous. Aren't you afraid that after this game is put into the market, the response will be mediocre and you will lose all your money?"

"With an investment budget of US$[-] million, even if we look at the global mobile game market, there is no precedent for this!"

Yao Lei took a deep breath, his eyes filled with shock.

"Brother Lei, we are confident in our game!"

"I believe that once our game is completed, it will surely create a precedent in the domestic and even global mobile game market!"

"Even if we fail, as you said, we won't regret it. We are still young. The worst we can do is start over from scratch!"

When it comes to the gaming field, Cai Haoyu's mental state suddenly becomes different. His whole body exudes confidence and vitality, and his eyes are clear and bright.

Yao Lei looked at Cai Haoyu in front of him and felt a lot in his heart. There are fewer and fewer people who can still maintain their original aspirations after starting a business for so many years.

"Haoyu, if it is 2 million RMB, it will not be difficult for me to find a friend here to help you solve it. But this is 2 million US dollars, which is a full 13 billion RMB when converted into RMB. Such a large funding gap, why You are still in the gaming industry, and the stakes are so big, it’s a bit difficult to find investors..."

Yao Lei sighed. He didn't hide anything and just said what he wanted.

Cai Haoyu nodded lightly. What Yao Lei said was true. After all, he almost broke his leg during this period of time to raise funds. The capital companies that were originally interested in their company, after hearing that they planned to invest five When he spent hundreds of millions of dollars to develop a game, he was instantly dispersed. Everyone looked at him as if he were a fool.

Cai Haoyu has no emotions about this, which is completely understandable.

After all, the current domestic environment is like this. It is obvious that you can make a lot of money by setting up a template for a small amount of money. Who would risk going bankrupt to play with you? Isn't that a pure fool?
"but……"

"It's not impossible to fill your $2 million funding gap. As long as you can successfully impress that person, your $2 million gap will be easily filled."

Just when Cai Haoyu was a little disappointed, Yao Lei changed the topic, turned his eyes to the core position of the audience, and said meaningfully.

Cai Haoyu was stunned for a moment when he heard this. He is a smart man. From Yao Lei's words and eyes, he quickly realized who Yao Lei was talking about.

"Brother Lei..."

"You mean President Tang?"

Cai Haoyu asked tentatively.

Yao Lei nodded slightly: "Speaking of which, you and President Tang are still alumni. President Tang is currently studying at the Gaofin Institute of China Shipping University. With this relationship, regardless of whether he will invest in you in the end, at least he should I will give you an opportunity to win investment, and if you are interested, I can help you make an introduction."

"President Tang is also a student of China Maritime Jiaotong University?"

Cai Haoyu's eyes lit up. It was obvious that he didn't know this information just now.

"Yes."

"Strictly speaking, you are President Tang's senior."

When Yao Lei heard this, he responded with a half-smile.

"Don't, don't!"

"Brother Lei, please don't mess with me."

"Don't dare to take it, don't dare to take it!"

Cai Haoyu's scalp exploded and he waved his hands repeatedly.

"Hahaha……"

"Don't worry, President Tang is not that stingy."

"There are many guests today, and President Tang is very busy. Now is not a good opportunity. After the SSTP Super Racing Club has stabilized in two days, I will look for an opportunity to introduce you to them."

Yao Lei looked at Cai Haoyu's nervous look, he couldn't help but laughed twice, patted Cai Haoyu on the shoulder and said this.

"Sorry, Brother Lei."

"It's time for us to prepare carefully."

Cai Haoyu looked at Yao Lei and said sincerely.

"Let's go..."

"Stop drinking alone. Social occasions like today are rare. I'll take you to meet some friends. You should be able to use them if you have the opportunity in the future."

"Later, when there are fewer people around President Tang, I will take you to propose a toast. Let's get to know each other first."

Yao Lei put his arm around Cai Haoyu's shoulders and placed great expectations on this young and talented game designer.

"Ok."

"I'll get a drink."

Yao Lei responded, then regained his energy and followed Yao Lei into the crowd again...
