Chapter 726: 721. Quarterly Revenue Exceeds One Hundred Million (Seeking Subscriptions and Monthly Tickets)

~7 min read 1,305 words

After Zhang Ran and the others returned home, they saw Zhang Sicheng busy in the kitchen; he hadn't gone to the airport to pick them up, but was instead at home preparing dinner.

"Dad, you're back. The food will be ready in a moment, you all should rest for a bit," Zhang Sicheng said immediately after hearing the commotion and coming out to take a look.

Zhang Ran said first: "Alright, you go ahead and get busy."

But then his expression became somewhat suspicious: "Do you know how to cook? Don't end up ordering takeout later."

Zhang Ran had truly never eaten food cooked by Zhang Sicheng, and he didn't know if this guy could actually cook or not.

Zhang Sicheng said confidently: "Dad, don't you worry. In terms of culinary arts, I definitely did not inherit your talent."

Zhang Ran's face darkened; what kind of way was that to talk?

Liu Lu and the others held back their laughter; it was true, Zhang Ran really had no talent for cooking.

Liu Lu suppressed her laughter and went to the kitchen to help; apart from her, everyone else was lounging lazily on the sofa, not moving.

Having been on a plane for so long was indeed tiring, and even the two little ones, who were usually full of energy, were listless.

After resting for a while, the meal was ready.

"Dad, do you want to have a drink?" Zhang Sicheng asked with a smile.

Zhang Ran asked suspiciously: "What good thing has happened to you?"

Zhang Sicheng was not someone who liked to drink, so why was he taking the initiative to suggest it today?

Zhang Sicheng chuckled and nodded, saying: "There really is some good news."

"Then let's have some." Zhang Ran didn't refuse; it was a good time to have a drink to relieve the fatigue.

Liu Lu went to get the alcohol and poured a glass for everyone, except for the two little ones, who didn't have the energy to make a fuss right now.

Just a moment ago, Zhang Sicheng had been teasing them, but he had been hurt by the impatient little glares from the two little ones.

"Tell us, what is so happy?" Zhang Ran and the others first clinked their glasses together, then asked.

Zhang Sicheng couldn't help but say proudly: "The quarterly revenue for Biaoxue Company has officially exceeded one hundred million!"

Zhang Ran was also stunned after hearing this; Biaoxue Company's revenue had broken one hundred million so quickly? And it was a quarterly record!

But thinking about those two games, actually, it wasn't really anything special, but to be able to achieve this from nothing, and in such a short time, was indeed very rare.

"It is indeed worth congratulating," Zhang Ran nodded in agreement.

A revenue of one hundred million didn't mean much to Zhang Ran, but it still surpassed the vast majority of companies, and even far exceeded many listed companies.

The profit margins of gaming companies were relatively high; after all, they were selling virtual products, so the profit rate was naturally very high.

Receiving Zhang Ran's praise, Zhang Sicheng immediately became even happier; what he wanted was his father's approval.

After such a long time, he had finally achieved some results!

Although this achievement didn't count for much for their family now, it was the best he could do.

For Zhang Sicheng to go from being a small programmer to this point in such a short time was indeed not easy.

From this, one could also see Zhang Sicheng's hard work!

Zhang Sicheng did not stop striving just because he had suddenly become a super rich second generation; instead, he worked even harder.

"Big brother, congratulations," Zhang Siyan also offered her congratulations.

Huo Zhiyuan was the same: "Sicheng, you really make people look at you with new eyes. You've grown so fast, it's worth celebrating."

"Hehe, thank you, Huo Yi. Actually, I didn't do much. If it weren't for my dad's support, I would still be the same as before." Zhang Sicheng didn't become arrogant or complacent because of this; he was very clear about his own situation.

Huo Zhiyuan smiled and said: "Don't belittle yourself. You were able to reach this point partly because of your father, but it was mostly the result of your own hard work."

Zhang Sicheng felt a bit embarrassed by Huo Zhiyuan's praise, but he was still very happy inside.

After congratulating him for a while, Zhang Ran began to ask about the situation at Biaoxue Company and Zhang Sicheng's plans for future development.

Although Zhang Ran wasn't actually very concerned about Biaoxue Company, he understood that Zhang Sicheng needed this kind of concern from him.

Therefore, Zhang Ran would put on an interested appearance, which was also a way to encourage Zhang Sicheng.

Originally, these things were what Zhang Ran should have done when Zhang Sicheng and his sister were in their teens, to build up their confidence.

But since he had been absent, all of this needed to be made up for now. Fortunately, neither Zhang Sicheng nor Zhang Siyan had gone astray, so it was not too late.

"It's like this, our company is preparing to enter the online game market. Our users have now grown to over ten million. Although these are basically attracted by 'PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds' and 'League of Legends', there is still a good conversion rate," Zhang Sicheng began to explain some of his plans.

"And our company is expanding very fast now, and we need new business to utilize our talent. Dad, you don't know, our Biaoxue Company is quite famous in the gaming world now." As he spoke, Zhang Sicheng became a bit proud.

Compared to the quarterly revenue of over one hundred million, this was what Zhang Sicheng was most proud of.

Zhang Ran asked curiously: "How so?"

"It's like this, we have done a very good job with some benefits here. Anyway, I personally think I've done quite well..." Zhang Sicheng began to talk about some of the things he managed at the company.

The matter was actually very simple: Zhang Sicheng was not like those other gaming companies where everything was aimed at money.

Of course, Zhang Sicheng also wanted to make money, but he wasn't so blatant about it, and he also knew that his family didn't actually lack money.

Even if he earned ten times more money, it would only be a drop in the bucket to his father, so he began to build his own gaming empire according to his own ideals.

During this time, Biaoxue Company had launched quite a few single-player games, and Zhang Sicheng had spent a lot of energy and money on them.

That wasn't the key; the key was that two of the popular single-player games were led by two newcomers who had been out of college for less than a year.

He vigorously promoted newcomers, giving them money and authority, letting them go all out, and they really achieved quite a few results.

This was the reason why Biaoxue Company was now called the conscience of the industry. The games were good, the benefits were good, the treatment was good, and there were none of those so-called unspoken rules in the workplace, making Biaoxue Company a top choice for many in the gaming industry during this time.

This was also one of the reasons why Biaoxue Company was expanding so quickly now: great opportunities, sufficient financial resources, and they didn't look at seniority, only ability.

These things attracted many excellent young talents to Biaoxue Company.

Therefore, Zhang Sicheng was very proud of such things and specifically brought them up to show off.

Zhang Ran did not let Zhang Sicheng down and expressed that he had done a good job, which made Zhang Sicheng even happier.
