Mo Yu Internet Cafe.

Coffee area.

A slightly world-worn man was slowly sipping a cup of coffee.

A middle-aged man in his fifties walked into the internet cafe and sat down across from the slightly world-worn man.

"President Liu." The slightly world-worn man stood up slightly to show his respect.

"Sorry, President Li, the company has been busy, so I'm a bit late. But having said that, this place is really hard to find." President Liu, who was older, sat down opposite him and habitually took out a cigar.

Li Shi raised his hand to stop him, "President Liu, no smoking here."

President Liu was stunned for a moment, "No smoking?"

He turned his head and looked around. He didn't see a no-smoking sign, but the young waiter gave him a slightly apologetic smile. It was indeed no smoking.

President Liu didn't mind and put the cigar back.

"President Li, is this the place you mentioned that has investment potential?" President Liu looked around. "This... looks like a very ordinary cafe."

He paused, then asked with some confusion, "But what's the meaning of this row of computers?"

Li Shi sipped his coffee and smiled, "President Liu, you don't know."

"The owner of this shop has a very forward-looking vision. In my opinion, whether it's an internet cafe, a bar, or a coffee shop, each of them has a lot of potential when taken out separately."

"Unfortunately, the owner of this shop doesn't know why, but he put all these industries together, and as a result, they dragged each other down, causing this shop to be deserted."

Li Shi told him in detail about what he had seen and heard in Mo Yu Internet Cafe during this period, including the heyday of Mo Yu Internet Cafe when Chen Lei was there.

"It's a pity that after that singer left, the new singer was not so popular, and the popularity of this place began to decline gradually, and now it's almost back to the previous half-dead state."

"However, my judgment of this place will not change. At least the high-end route taken by this internet cafe may be the future development direction."

After listening to Li Shi's words, President Liu nodded slightly.

"So, you want to invest here?"

Li Shi took a sip of coffee, full of confidence, "That's right. As an investor, I still have to have this sense of smell. President Liu, you are in the real estate business. I think this high-end model of Mo Yu Internet Cafe, if it can be opened in a suitable place, should have some potential, so I specially invited you here today to talk about this matter."

President Liu thought for a moment and quickly understood the key, "Well, that's right. Whether this shop loses money or makes money is actually not very meaningful. Letting it serve the high-end crowd and raise the land price of the entire area is a good deal."

"Have you talked to the owner of this shop?"

Li Shi shook his head, "Not yet, I'm waiting for the right opportunity."

"This shop has only been open for two or three months. I feel that this owner doesn't seem to be short of money, and judging from his aggressive behavior, he is probably quite stubborn and doesn't listen to advice."

"As far as I know, in the case that this shop is obviously not making money, this owner continues to invest money and has opened three or four branches in Jingzhou City. It is rare to see such a stubborn person."

"Of course, I haven't investigated it carefully, but I have made this inference based on what I have seen and heard during this period."

President Liu nodded slightly in agreement.

To spend three or four million to open such a unique shop, many people would definitely try to dissuade him. However, this shop still opened, and not only one, which is enough to show that this owner is not only not short of money, but also relatively arbitrary.

Otherwise, he wouldn't be able to do such a thing.

Li Shi continued, "So, if I go to talk to him now, I will probably be rejected. The other party will definitely not accept my investment."

"I have to continue to wait, wait for this shop to continue to be lackluster, wait for several branches to suffer huge losses together, wait for this owner to question himself and plan to make some changes..."

"I will decisively extend a helping hand, invest a large sum of money, and naturally get a part of the control."

"At that time, President Liu, we can have a good talk about cooperation."

President Liu smiled, neither agreeing nor refusing, "President Li has a good plan. But I think this business model still needs to be observed further."

"President Li, don't misunderstand me, I'm not trying to pour cold water on you. I'm a more conservative person, unlike you investors who have such a long-term vision. However, when President Li's goal is really achieved, I don't mind discussing this matter in detail."

"Maybe, President Li will return in disgrace? At that time, it may be someone else who is talking to me about cooperation."

Li Shi smiled and took a sip of coffee, "Don't worry, President Liu, I don't think this owner has any reason to refuse me."

...

June 18th.

Several of Tenda's games are updated at the same time!

The long-awaited players immediately ushered in a carnival. Those who should buy DLCs bought DLCs, those who should grab epic weapons grabbed epic weapons, while shouting "Tenda is really conscientious" and buying like crazy, and also frantically whipping corpses of some pay-to-win games on the forum.

Pei Qian browsed the forum while paying attention to the data in the background.

The sales of several DLCs were growing rapidly, which was a little disturbing.

In particular, the 500 Barrett·Devastators of *Fortress at Sea*, Pei Qian originally thought it could last for a day, but now it seems that it may not last for an hour.

Players could see that the limited 500 pieces were being sold at the speed of light, and many of those who were originally hesitating also bought them without hesitation.

Although the increase in these data made Pei Qian a little frightened, after careful calculation, everything was still within the calculation.

After several settlements, Pei Qian became more and more clear about some of the system's regulations.

To achieve a loss, it is not necessary to bankrupt the company, nor will it stagnate the company.

As long as two conditions are met at the time of settlement, the loss can be completed and the property can be converted.

First, at the moment of settlement, the system funds are lower than the initial system funds.

Second, there are no unreleased products in the week before settlement.

System funds will be replenished at the beginning of each settlement cycle. From the initial 50,000 yuan to the current 5 million yuan, the system will give you as much as you need, so you might as well use it.

This time, Pei Qian only needs to ensure that the system funds are lower than 5 million yuan, and how much lower, how much will be converted.

After the settlement, several games are still making money, and the system will replenish the system funds. The company's capital chain will not be broken, it should develop and expand, and it will not have much impact.

What's more, the system funds spent are either spent on employees or on research and development, and it is not a waste.

Now Pei Qian doesn't pay so much attention to whether a certain project is losing money. Just like this DLC, it is completely to cover people's eyes. It is bound to make money, but Pei Qian still did it.

It doesn't matter, as long as other projects lose a little, and ensure that the system funds are lower than 5 million at the time of settlement, the purpose of losing money can still be achieved. It doesn't have to be a complete loss.

And now, the entire script is basically following Pei Qian's plan. Even the Mo Yu Delivery, which started the latest, has been completed. Although there are no users yet, it is officially in operation and does not count as an unreleased product.

Everything is ready, Pei Qian is in a good mood and is ready to see the players' rainbow farts.

He randomly clicked on a game forum.

"*Ghost General* has finally been updated! Thank God! And so many generals have been updated at once, so I can play for another half a year!"

Click on another one.

"The update of *Game Producer* has been well received with five stars. The new dubbing and new scenes are full of conscience!"

Another one.

"Games like *Lonely Desert Road* are also going to be updated? And it only sells for one yuan? I'm withered! Although I won't play it, I'll buy it, and shout 'Tenda is awesome!' (broken sound)"

The last one.

"Damn planner, NMSL!"

"Damn you, you only sell 500 of such a handsome epic weapon. I specially set aside my working hours to find an internet cafe, but you tell me it's sold out this month???"

"Looking to buy an account that has snatched the Barrett·Devastator, sincere purchase!"

"Damn it, sell it quickly! I can't wait until next month!"

Pei Qian silently closed the comment section of *Fortress at Sea*.

Ahem, this style seems to be a little different from the previous one.

But it doesn't matter, you can scold me, as long as you don't continue to give me money before this settlement, then we are still good brothers!
