Chapter 453: Why Must It Be a Suite?

One billion isn't considered the top investment in the gaming field.

But it definitely counts as a heavyweight figure.

Xu Huateng trembled with excitement. With this investment, he was absolutely confident he could turn dream origin god into a blockbuster game. The investment in publicity and promotion would trigger a massive, viral sensation across the entire internet.

He even had a rough idea in his mind of how to proceed next.

As for the question of whose name the company was under...

Was that even a problem?

Compared to the harsh demands made by those other people, this was a massive benefit!

Times were different now. Eight or nine years ago, during the era of wild internet growth, capital only cared about how you made a profit and how much equity they could take. Some people only cared if you were riding the trend.

They would throw money at you like crazy, and you didn't have to pay it back—they just waited for profits and dividends.

It's different now. For example, if Hongshan Capital invests 5 million in you, they want 60% of the shares.

And you still have to pay back that 5 million!

You'd need to pay it back over several years, along with various additional clauses.

Just thinking about it gave Xu Huateng a headache. If he raised 50 million in investment, it would be fine if he made money later. But if he didn't make money, how would he pay that money back?

Thinking of this, he felt even more that Zheng Qian was a true "angel" investor.

"No problem! Which company belongs to whom, that's not a big issue! Brother-in-law, and I can't let you throw in this billion in vain. I will convince the team to give up 90% of the equity..."

Before he could finish, Zheng Qian waved his hand.

He smiled and said, "No need for that much, 75% is enough."

"I will send someone to discuss the details with you. The funds can be transferred to your account at any time, you don't need to worry about that. I can even arrange for Yin Yanyan to be your spokesperson; other celebrities and such won't be an issue."

"Just make a list and submit everything you need my cooperation with."

"I only have one request: the game must be made into a high-quality product. And... absolutely, absolutely do not find unreliable, trash game designers, you know? I don't want to open my phone every day and see people bashing the designers for being incompetent."

Zheng Qian had very deep feelings about this.

Once upon a time, when he was a child, he also had games he really liked.

It was just a pity that the designers were simply too moronic; everyone bashed them every day, and the most crucial thing was that they wouldn't change!

"Oh, that's right, you need to change the name of your game company too. Tenghayou... it's a bit too much. I'll offer an idea: why not just call it [Dream Walk]? Anyway, this is dream origin god..."

Amidst the clinking of glasses, the two finalized many details.

Meanwhile, beside them, Xu Shuyun's Favorability was skyrocketing.

[Favorability + 5]

[Favorability + 8]

[Favorability + 9]

...

Without realizing it, by the end of the meal, Xu Shuyun's Favorability had reached 88 points. Zheng Qian breathed a sigh of relief; it finally stopped rising. Otherwise, when the game was officially launched, there would still be many places where he needed to throw money.

It did, however, make him feel a bit depressed.

Last night, he had [increased the intensity] and [added confrontation] so much, yet it only went up by 10 points.

"Sis, then I won't go back today!"

Xu Huateng was in high spirits, just wanting to rush back to Shenzhen to arrange the work.

"Ah... Dad is still waiting for you..." Xu Shuyun said with difficulty.

"Let Dad rest early. A real man prioritizes work! With this money, the game can launch even faster! We've poured so much of our heart and soul into this, I can't wait to see it become a hit!"

"Brother-in-law, believe me! Just wait to make money!"

Xu Huateng waved his hand grandly and hailed a taxi straight to the airport.

Zheng Qian couldn't help but laugh. Silly kid, your brother-in-law is already making money. By transferring this billion into the account, he would instantly earn ten billion. Hmm... how long will it take for your game to earn ten billion for me?

In reality, Zheng Qian was being too conservative here.

What he didn't expect was that this dream origin god truly became a national-level game.

In terms of revenue, it even far surpassed the mobile games of another [Teng] major factory, completely dominating the charts. In just one year, it earned over 16 billion in net profit.

Of course, that is a story for another time.

"Well... your brother is gone, so you..."

Zheng Qian held Xu Shuyun's hand, looking at her with infinite tenderness.

The latter was shy and didn't dare to look at Zheng Qian, just kept her head lowered with blushing cheeks, completely lacking the appearance of a company leader.

"Look, it's 11:30 now, it's past the dormitory closing time. How about this, let's go stay outside. Don't worry, I absolutely won't touch you!"

"Hmm... even if I touch you, I'll only be holding you, absolutely nothing else!"

Hearing Zheng Qian spouting nonsense, although Xu Shuyun's cheeks were flushed red, she couldn't help but laugh.

She rolled her eyes fiercely and said through gritted teeth, "Speak! When you were in college, did you often trick other girls like this? You scumbag, let me see how I'll deal with you!"

"Hehehe, there's no time like the present, let's just 'increase the intensity' in the car..."

"You're so annoying... there are people outside..."

"It's fine, to deal with situations like this, I specifically installed one-way privacy film, people outside absolutely can't see inside..."

"Ah... you're tearing it again..."

...

Zheng Qian regretted it a little; if he had known, he would have just gone straight to a hotel properly. Hmm... and it must be a suite, at the very least one with two beds...

The next morning, Zheng Qian headed straight to the car wash.

Of course, they had transferred to a hotel for the second half, rather than sleeping in the car all night.

[Regarding the establishment of the bank, I have a new plan, do you want to hear it?]

While bored at the car wash, Zheng Qian suddenly received a message from Wei Rusi.

[What plan?]

[The application procedures are going very smoothly, and it should be approved by next week if nothing goes wrong. Also, because the land we bought already had an existing office building frame, the quality is fine, and it's already being renovated. But... have you ever thought about establishing the bank's headquarters abroad? And then establishing a branch in Shanghu.]

Zheng Qian's eyes lit up.

This was indeed a good idea.

This way, the movement of his funds would be even more mysterious. Even if interested parties domestically wanted to investigate, they would basically have no way to do so; this was indeed a viable path.

[Which country? Do you have any ideas?]

[Oman, it couldn't be more suitable; it is a long-established international financial safe haven. If possible... I hope we can set off as soon as possible to finalize this matter, because... this might be able to help Jin Lu.]
