The goose factory invested eight million dollars in Riot Company and got nearly 20% of the shares.
Lu Yuan directly invested 20 million USD and asked for 45% of the shares. Now that League of Legends wasn't listed, Riot Company didn't have much market value. This percentage of shares wasn't too much.
He didn't interfere with the operation and development of Riot Company because he knew the direction of Riot Company's future development. As long as Riot Company developed according to the normal track, it would be within Lu Yuan's plans.
Ryze pondered for a long time and slowly stood up. He extended his hand towards Lu Yuan and said,""Then... Happy cooperation!"
They had no choice but to work together happily. If they didn't, their Riot Company would probably have to close down.
Although Lu Yuan's conditions were very reasonable and his goal was very pure, he didn't want to annex them. Instead, he really wanted to cooperate with them and change the game market together.
However, Ryze understood that if they didn't cooperate, it would be a competition. He had no confidence in competing with Lu Yuan.
Lu Yuan walked in front of Ryze and laughed heartily.""It's been a pleasure working with you, Mr. Ritz. In the future, you'll realize that you made a very wise decision today.”
Ryze said," If you were the one who came to me to invest last year, I would have agreed without hesitation. There's no need to go through so much trouble. I can see that Mr. Lu Yuan is someone who sincerely wants to change the game market structure and also someone who sincerely wants to make games. It will definitely be very pleasant to work with you.”
If Lu Yuan had come to him first, he wouldn't have been conflicted at all. He would have given him money, technology, and even design a proposal for Hero. It was really hard to find such an investor.
Unfortunately, the goose factory was one step ahead of him. He had no choice but to be conflicted.
Ryze continued," Mr. Lu Yuan, I can tell from your words that you don't seem to have a good impression of the goose factory. Now that you and the goose factory have become my investors, how are you going to deal with this relationship?”
Now, he only had about 20% of the shares of Riot Company left.
Lu Yuan took 45%, the goose factory still had about 20%, and the remaining 5% was in the hands of other companies. Although they all held shares and dividends and did not interfere with the development, what about the relationship between these investors?
Lu Yuan said confidently," It's fine. After we cooperate and improve League of Legends, your company will definitely go public. At that time, I will continue to invest and dilute the shares of Goose Factory. Don't worry, I guarantee that in the future, you will be the leader of Riot Company, and the one holding the shares will always be Tianqing Studio.”
The goose factory was good at playing capital games. Lu Yuan would play with them in the future.
With the support of the Super Brain System, he wasn't afraid of playing this kind of game.
" Since Mr. Lu Yuan has thought it through, then I'll develop the game in a down-to-earth manner," Ryze said.”
This cooperation could be considered to have been truly negotiated.
After that, they didn't talk about investment anymore. Instead, they discussed the improvement of League of Legends.
League of Legends was supposed to be released in the second half of the year. However, in the early stages of League of Legends, bugs were everywhere, the map was old, the heroes were ugly, and the user experience was not good.
If it weren't for the low entry requirements, real-time competition, and strong teamwork, it wouldn't have become popular so easily.
The popularity of League of Legends had only begun after two years of improvements overseas.
What Lu Yuan needed to do now was to directly complete the production of the perfect League of Legends. The first generation of Tianqing could greatly enhance the image and control of the heroes in League of Legends, as well as the map images and so on.
He wanted to make sure that League of Legends would become a mature game by the time it was released.
This would be more beneficial for them to occupy the market.
Ryze stayed in the country for three days. During this period, other than visiting Tian Qing Studio's game development work, he was also discussing with Lu Yuan about the improvements to League of Legends.
In these three days, his understanding of game development had been completely overturned.
He even felt that his understanding of League of Legends was inferior to Lu Yuan's.
When he left Shanghai, Ryze was still sighing in his heart. Fortunately, he chose to cooperate with Lu Yuan. Otherwise, they would definitely become competitors. He really didn't have the confidence to win against Lu Yuan in the competition.
After sending Ryze off, Lu Yuan's initial plan was considered complete.
Single-player, traditional online games, MOBA competitive online games, all of them were completed.
What he needed to do now was to help his partners to complete the development of these three games as soon as possible and push them to the market as soon as possible.
At that time, the gaming market would change.
In the blink of an eye, it was the end of May. It was almost June.
On this day, the few of them sat together in Lu Yuan's office and chatted. Ever since the studio opened, the few of them had almost never been idle. It was rare for them to be idle today.
After chatting for a while, Hua Yunqing asked,""Oh right, Ah Yuan, Riot Games accepted our investment. We said that we wanted to improve League of Legends together, but it's actually no different from redoing it. The Goose Factory won't be able to find trouble with Riot Games.”
Usually, when investors invested in a game company, they would sign a guarantee contract to let the development company guarantee that the game would be completed by a certain time.
The goose factory was so smart. How could people not sign this?
Lu Yuan smiled slyly and said," Our partner, Mr. Ritz, knows business better than ordinary gamers. Since he didn't express any concern, it means that he has a way to deal with it. Just wait and see. He might be able to clear out the shares of the goose factory before it goes public.”
Hua Yunqing nodded and did not ask any more questions. He did not know anything about capital and could only learn slowly. He said,"Alright, you must know in your heart. Let's not talk about these things anymore. Tomorrow, all of you have to be free to take your graduation photos. You should have done it a long time ago, but for some reason, it was delayed until June. The graduation ceremony is about to begin.”
