Chapter 143: The Future of Moyuwangka
"The General Manager of Pioneer Capital Limited Company wants to see me?"
Inside the Moyu Shiqu Zongdian, Lu Yu had a doubtful look on his face, his eyes on Xiao Min.
Xiao Min lightly nodded and said, "Actually, the person named Qian Zhong has already come to our place many times; that's why I'm sure he's not some boring person, which is why I dare to tell you, boss, about this."
Lu Yu actually hadn't heard of Pioneer Capital; he actually doesn't know much about investment matters.
However, Lu Yu does know the general situation of these venture capital firms.
Often, these venture capital firms appear small in scale, but behind them there is always sufficient financial support.
This "sufficient"... sometimes is quite frightening.
But, actually, Lu Yu currently does not need investment.
Three games continue to bring him revenue, especially "Legend".
Also, Penguin still needs investment at this stage, but it should soon see returns, and substantial returns.
As for Moyu... well, that's about it.
Currently, the Moyu Shiqu Zongdian brings in considerable income each month.
According to Xiao Min, if the Moyu Zongdian can maintain its current revenue, in three months they can recoup the capital needed to open branch stores.
In other words, as Moyu's chain stores keep opening, Moyu is actually the quickest to give Lu Yu returns.
Under these circumstances, Lu Yu naturally does not need investment.
But...
Lu Yu still decided to meet this Qian Zhong.
After all, the other party's perseverance is amazing; he probably can't avoid it.
Also, the International Game Production Competition will start in less than a week.
Chen Qiao is actually quite anxious now.
Because up to now, Lu Yu hasn't even started planning research for a new game.
You know, after the opening ceremony, in one week they have to submit the first game!
But Lu Yu isn't in a hurry; he's still busy with other things everywhere.
Regarding this, Chen Qiao also has nothing to say, because... by now he realizes he has no ability left to help Lu Yu.
Lu Yu is indeed not in a hurry.
Because he already has an idea in mind.
Lu Yu has already decided on the game to present in the first round.
A small game!
But of course, this small game will definitely be stunning.
Even in Lu Yu's view, most participants in the first round won't directly unleash their ultimate moves, but Lu Yu still needs to ensure he passes the threshold without doubt.
Don't forget what happened before; someone wants to target Lu Yu!
The next afternoon, Lu Yu came to Moyu again.
Qian Zhong had already sat down in Moyu early, waiting for Lu Yu.
Lu Yu glanced at Qian Zhong a few times; he is a middle-aged man who gives a comfortable feeling at first glance.
Not greasy, very refreshing, capable yet not giving an overly shrewd impression.
His gaze is wise, yet not overly sharp.
"You... you're the boss of Moyuwangka?" Seeing Lu Yu, Qian Zhong obviously couldn't believe it was true.
"Hello, I'm Lu Yu." Lu Yu said that.
Qian Zhong was stunned, because he immediately recalled the recent uproar online, thus learning Lu Yu's identity.
Then Qian Zhong couldn't help but glance at Lu Yu a few more times before saying, "Everyone thinks you're a game development genius, but they don't realize... how narrow their view is."
"Who could have imagined that you, such a youngster, can not only create a hit game but also have such profound insight into business operations?"
Qian Zhong wasn't trying to flatter Lu Yu; it was just a sincere feeling.
"I heard you want to invest in Moyuwangka? Is that why you're looking for me?" Lu Yu got straight to the point.
Qian Zhong nodded and said, "I'm very optimistic about your model."
"I know you definitely aren't short of money now; this net cafe has already achieved profitability."
"But I think you should be able to see farther into the distance."
"And I can help you reach that distance quickly."
"Let me first express my sincerity!"
"I will support you in opening twenty Moyuwangka outlets in Modu; this counts as our sponsorship to you."
Lu Yu's brow involuntarily twitched.
The other party's move is a bit big.
Twenty outlets of the same level would easily be tens of millions.
And the other party is offering it for free!
"So, what are your conditions?" Lu Yu wasn't shocked by the benefit.
Qian Zhong's brow involuntarily furrowed.
The reason he blurted out such explosive news right away was to shock Lu Yu.
Twenty net cafes, for free!
Who wouldn't be excited hearing that?
But this youngster, unexpectedly... remained so calm, even grasping the key point!
Wasn't it said that Lu Yu merely came from an ordinary family?
Why can he remain unmoved before such temptation?
"We need your Moyuwangka brand."
"Next, we will open Moyu across the nation."
"By then, you must relinquish the operating rights of all Moyuwangka outlets except those in Modu."
"Of course, we will give you three percent of all netcafe profits each year as a reward."
Qian Zhong dropped another bombshell.
Three percent sounds small, but...
This is three percent of the profits, and it's three percent of all regions nationwide.
More importantly!
Lu Yu needs no investment; just sitting there he can receive dividends, with no risk and no effort required!
Lu Yu even felt a bit tempted.
Lu Yu originally just wanted to set up an internet cafe on a whim, merely to give himself a comfortable gaming environment.
Moyu's success today is entirely thanks to Xiao Min's efforts.
Thinking of this, Lu Yu couldn't help but look at Xiao Min.
"Xiao Min, what do you think?" Lu Yu asked.
"Ah? Me? I can also voice my opinion?" Xiao Min was completely dazed.
You know, the business Lu Yu is discussing with Qian Zhong now is literally making over a hundred million in minutes!
If it continues to develop, it could become a hundred-billion industry!
Xiao Min is merely a graduate student on campus; even if her family background is decent, how could she have been exposed to such high-level business?
"Go on, tell us your opinion."
"Moyu can be said to be built by your own hands and feet; you have full right to voice your opinion."
Lu Yu looked at Xiao Min very seriously and said.
Xiao Min stammered for a while, unable to utter a word.
She was actually frightened by Qian Zhong.
Twenty netcafes given for free, ah! And also five percent of all netcafe profits nationwide!
What a huge fortune this is!
Logically, Xiao Min should nod.
But... Xiao Min just couldn't nod.
Just as Lu Yu said, Moyuwangka truly was built by her own hands and feet!
She regarded Moyuwangka as her own child, a companion.
Now she has to hand it over to someone else?
She...
She seems unable to do it.
"I... I disagree." Finally... Xiao Min still spoke.
