Chapter 241: Lu Yu actually ran out of funds?

Bang!

A clear sound rang out as a glass cup smashed onto the floor, the dark red liquor inside splashed outward in all directions.

"Trash! Trash! Trash!"

"Yuehan, you dead trash!"

"I gave him so many resources, such a huge sum of money, and what does he give me in return?"

"Trash, trash, trash!"

Dan Ding's voice, filled with anger, kept echoing in the room.

He flung the wine cup, that wasn't enough; he also threw the wine bottle, overturned a table, and kicked several chairs flying……

After more than ten minutes, Dan Ding finally stopped.

It wasn't that the anger in his heart had been completely vented; rather…… he was exhausted.

He half-squatted, panting heavily, completely lacking any noble gentleman's decorum.

Anyone seeing Dan Ding at this moment, with his disheveled hair and clothes, would not associate him with a successful person.

He was truly furious, furious to the point of being beyond description.

His several previous failures against Lu Yu were actually within Dan Ding's tolerance range.

Each time, he thought he had underestimated the opponent, which led to the failure.

But this time……

Dan Ding had really not allocated many resources to Yuehan.

Funds for several top-tier games, as well as the money to acquire shares in first-rate game companies like Brilliant……

This expenditure was actually not easy for Dan Ding either.

After all, Dan Ding doesn't print money.

And actually…… the losses Yuehan incurred in Huaxia this month alone would outpace even the speed of printing money!

Having lost so much yet gained nothing, can Dan Ding not be irritable?

Most importantly…… Dan Ding still sees no hope of defeating Lu Yu!

"Boss, otherwise…… should we temporarily give up on the Huaxia side of things?" a voice sounded in the room.

Dan Ding's secretary.

He dared not let Dan Ding give up on dealing with Lu Yu, fearing it would provoke Dan Ding's anger.

A core member of a major clan, the behind-the-scenes boss of a conglomerate, actually lost to a Huaxia person, and a child at that…… and repeatedly!

Who could bear this!

"No!"

"I will destroy Lu Yu, no matter the cost, no matter the means!"

Dan Ding has truly lost his reason, no longer caring about anything.

If Lu Yu were in Mi Guo, Dan Ding would surely grab a weapon and take him down directly.

That night was undoubtedly a night filled with anger for Dan Ding.

Because no matter how furious he became, it was merely…… fury, and he had absolutely no way to deal with Lu Yu.

Of course, after tonight, whether Dan Ding will sober up, whether he will truly consider letting Lu Yu off temporarily?

Only Dan Ding knows.

……

The next day, Lu Yu got up from bed very early.

Having settled Yuehan and Kong Zheng, and resolved the Moyuwangka matter, Lu Yu could also relax a bit.

Moreover, Lu Yu also noticed something very important.

Fruit Phone has already landed in Huaxia! 、

And it was more than a week ago!

But because the Moyuwangka and Lu Yu's popularity has been extremely high lately, the news of Fruit Phone's launch in Huaxia hasn't had much impact.

In fact, these past few days Lu Yu brought Mr. Qin over, so Mr. Qin actually hasn't made many preparations regarding Fruit Phone's launch in Huaxia.

Now it turns out to be a good thing, no need to spend extra money.

However……

Although Fruit Phone didn't become an instant hit, its quality and timeliness are there.

Phone users can fully rely on word-of-mouth to promote Fruit Phone.

Of course, this indeed deviates from the original historical trajectory, which amounts to giving Lu Yu more time.

Lu Yu took a deep breath, then couldn't help clenching his fist, muttering to himself: "Next, we need to put in more effort; we must make our Huaxia phone system keep up!"

"Not saying we must completely defeat Fruit, but at the very least we shouldn't let it occupy a unique position."

Giving himself a pep talk like that, Lu Yu finished breakfast and headed to the Research Center.

Over the next few days, Lu Yu would either be at the Research Center or go see Mr. Qin.

The progress at the Research Center is quite satisfying to Lu Yu.

Now nearly the entire Ke Da has joined in; although their work is still quite peripheral, the help is not insignificant.

Moreover, worth mentioning is that Lao Li's efficiency is high; he has already contacted many universities in Mo Du, and even got some high-level students to join in.

Under such substantial human and material support, the research efficiency naturally increased considerably.

Chen Hao even said such words.

"Give us a little more time, and we might develop a system that doesn't lose to Fruit Phone!"

Before this, Chen Hao had been putting in effort while holding a doubtful attitude!

This phenomenon is enough to explain everything.

As for Mr. Qin's side, progress is also going smoothly.

Building the factory is actually not that difficult; the difficulty lies in preparing the equipment for mobile phone hardware, and also the most important talent.

But Mr. Qin is indeed a capable person; he has already purchased a large batch of high-end crystal cores from abroad, which counts as preparation for the hardware of the first batch of phones.

Moreover, Mr. Qin also hired many high-end hardware research personnel according to Lu Yu's opinion.

Just as Lu Yu said, "It's fine if our technology isn't as good as others' for now; we can use their finished products first. But we also need to start cultivating related technical personnel simultaneously, laying the foundation for the future."

It's quite evident that Mr. Qin has done this very well.

Actually, the biggest problem now is one that Lu Yu never even thought of.

Money!

Yes, even with Grand and Penguin and Moyuwangka supporting from behind, Lu Yu has now reached the point of being stretched thin.

This is actually not surprising at all.

You should know that many of the talents hired by Mr. Qin are Huaxia people invited back from abroad.

They are treated well abroad, so naturally the treatment to bring them back needs to be higher.

Moreover, some high-tech materials also have astronomical prices!

If Penguin were the Penguin of ten or more years later, there would naturally be no problem with funds, but Penguin has actually just begun to realize profits!

"How about... we temporarily halt the development of Moyuwangka in the South?" Mr. Qin looked at Lu Yu and put forward this suggestion.

Lu Yu pondered for a moment and said, "Not enough. Halting development there merely means not exporting to that side, without any extra income."

Indeed, that's the case; increasing revenue is the focus, while cutting expenses is merely a supplementary measure.

"How about going public or financing?" Mr. Qin then thought of another common method.

Once the company proves its potential, it is indeed easy to attract capital's attention, thereby obtaining sufficient funds.

Lu Yu, however, fell silent again.

To be honest, he is not very satisfied with these two suggestions.

Or rather, Lu Yu has never even thought of such a thing.
