Chapter 1289 Virtual Item Value

The dinner went very happily. Yang Dongxu even drank two glasses of red wine. Both the host and the guests were very happy.

"What do you think about this?" After dinner, Yang Dongxu left the restaurant.

Sun Guoliang and his friends did not leave immediately, but sat down in the rest compartment on the other side of the private room.

"From what he said, Yang Dongxu is indeed not interested in joining the circle we proposed. But he is not as difficult to get along with as rumored. If there is a common interest to cooperate, he will definitely not refuse.

As for what he said about his younger brother's software being very promising. I don't know much about computers, so it's hard to comment. But with the relationship with Sun Yi, we have no conflict with him, and he has no reason to lie about this." Guo Yue said carefully.

"Let Sun Bo do this properly. After all, if he has set up a software company and recruits a few people, it won't cost much even if he fails.

Just as Guo Yue said, he has no reason to talk nonsense about this matter. And you don't know that the largest game company in China, which is also the popular Xuri Technology, is actually his company."

"Xuri Technology is his, the one with YY chat software and 361 browser?" Guo Yue was shocked.

Sun Bo's eyes lit up instantly. If Guo Yue didn't understand the IT industry, he didn't know much. He only knew from the media newspapers that Xuri Technology has become the leader of instant messaging chat software, plus browsers, and several awesome games. The valuation is so many hundreds of millions. It was very surprising to hear that this company was actually owned by Yang Dongxu.

As someone who knows something about IT, Sun Bo knows too well how awesome Xuri Technology is. There is a saying in the IT industry now, that there are two companies in the IT industry, Xuri Technology and other companies.

Although this sentence is exaggerated, for example, although Xuri Technology is the undisputed leader in the game industry, CC and MM are still competitive in the chat software market.

After all, their user base is there, although they are always beaten by YY's new features. But they are not good at research and development, and they are fast at imitating.

Basically, it only takes CC and MM a week at most for YY to launch new features online. In addition, they already have a huge user base.

Although this chat software, which was originally a two-horse race, can only be ranked under the tyranny of YY, the boss. But the current chat market is indeed a three-legged tripod, not YY alone. In this regard, Xuri Technology has not reached 95% of the domestic computer users in the browser market, and it is so powerful that you can't find a rival with binoculars.

But the strength of Xuri Technology is unquestionable. Who would have thought that such a great IT company was actually owned by Yang Dongxu. This is simply explosive news.

Because there have been rumors about the identity of the CEO of Xuri Technology, but it has never been confirmed, and major media have always been evasive.

In addition, the current CEO of 361 is Qiu Bosong, an absolute expert and senior in the IT industry, who has a lot of news to write about. Many times, people have also overlooked the big boss of Xuri Technology, and more attention has been paid to Qiu Bosong. Who would have thought that I would see the real god today.

"Xuri Technology, the Internet company that has been established for only a few years and has a valuation of more than 10 billion?" Sun Guoliang couldn't help but ask.

As an older generation who is not very interested in the IT industry and does not understand it. He has always felt that the Internet industry is a bit unreal, but he has heard of the name of Xuri Technology as he often reads newspapers.

After all, the big boss of Xuri Technology keeps a low profile for some reason. The media has been speculating all kinds of things, but there is no real evidence. But for the company Xuri Technology, major media newspapers have never been stingy with their ink.

"It's that Xuri Technology. Although when it comes to the Internet industry, everyone always feels so unreal and too illusory. Moreover, the Internet industry bubble is too big, and the valuation is basically blown up.

Now most Internet companies are indeed like this, but Xuri Technology is not included. Although there are not many fixed assets, game property rights and browsers still feel so virtual and unreal.

But Xuri Technology's net profit from the game industry last quarter has reached 500 million, and this is still a quarter's profit, and at the same time, 361, which dominates the domestic browser market, is not mentioned.

The revenue of YY chat software has also reached 50 million, and there is a lot of room for growth. Especially after the space background and music sales have reached a bottleneck, Xuri Technology has launched a casual game function. Some people expect YY's revenue to double next quarter." Sun Yi said.

Although some things cannot be said, there is no need to worry about the information that can be obtained by asking a little bit. It's just that the data she said is more accurate than the investigation by outsiders.

"Is that game and YY really that profitable?" Several hundred million a quarter, four quarters a year, wouldn't the profit go straight to 20 to 30 billion?

Now, let alone a company making 20 to 30 billion yuan in profits a year, many companies don’t even have that much when all their total assets are taken into account, okay?

When Sun Guoliang attended a gathering in his circle before, he also heard from several old friends that the Internet is very profitable, and as long as it is listed, it can raise money faster than physical companies. But he just listened to it, and he had no intention of investing in an industry he didn’t understand.

But now facing such a huge profit, he admitted that he was tempted.

"Not all Internet companies are so profitable. Many Internet companies make money at a loss. But although they lose money, they do valuation financing and then go public.

As long as the financing is successful, even if the company loses money, it can still continue to grow, and its valuation will continue to rise. If the listing is successful, all shareholders will become tens of millions and billionaires in an instant.

For example, the richest man Chen Daqiao, who was very popular some time ago, became the richest man in China from an unknown Internet company CEO in an instant because of the successful listing of his company. "

"Is it really that profitable?" Sun Guoliang felt that his values ​​had been affected to a certain extent, but he knew that there was no possibility of his niece deceiving him.

"Some people make money, and some lose money. Many people jump off buildings when the story is turbulent. Once Internet companies fail to operate and go public, the bubble bursts, and many people jump off buildings and end up in jail.

There are even many companies that have successfully gone public and made a lot of money when they went public. But within a few years, many of Nine City's richest people became indebted. "Seeing that Sun Bo next to him started to turn red with excitement, Sun Yi appropriately started to pour cold water on him.

"This feels like a trader cutting leeks in the stock market." Sun Guoliang raised his eyebrows and finally linked the operation of Internet companies to something he was familiar with.

"The operation methods are different, but the process is similar. However, there are differences. Some Internet companies do have real skills and can still go all the way up after being listed. They are not crops in the stock market that only harvest one leek. After one crop, the stock is basically the same. The company is also ruined," Sun Yi said.

She was talking a lot at this moment, but among the four people here, besides her, the one who knew the most about the Internet industry was Sun Bo who only saw that you could eat meat on the Internet, but did not see those who died after the Internet industry failed. Half-assed.

In order to establish a correct attitude towards the Internet industry for her uncle and husband, she had to say more. In fact, she also knows little about the Internet.

But because the people she had come into contact with before were like Yang Dongxu, Qiu Bosong, and Ma Fengyun, they were all big names in the Internet industry who could criticize Fang Qiu. She naturally saw farther and more realistically than others from a high position. .

"Has Xuri Technology been launched on the market?" Sun Guoliang couldn't help but ask.

"No, but Yang Dongxu doesn't seem to have any intention of listing Xuri Technology. Even if it is listed, it is estimated that it will split its subsidiaries and list them." Sun Yi shook his head.

"Is that game easy to make? Are virtual and unreal things really that profitable?"

"Games are very profitable. If you don't believe me, just ask Sun Bo how much money he spent on the game. However, games are not easy to make. Many game companies invest a lot of money in developing new games. As a result, no one cares about them when they are launched, and they lose all their money." Sun Yi glanced at his cousin.

"How much did you spend playing games?" Sun Guoliang looked sideways at his son.

"That." Sun Bo's expression suddenly froze. Just now, he felt that his cousin was so awesome. He actually knew so much about the Internet and was studying humbly. Why did he feel so angry all of a sudden?

"Tell the truth." Sun Guoliang frowned.

"Um. I spent about 300,000 yuan when I played Legend. Recently, "Fantasy Westward Journey" is very popular. You have to find power leveling to get levels. Now there is a competition mode in the game. In order to get the first place, I spent almost 50 yuan to buy equipment. All right."

"Does it mean that you almost spent 1 million in that virtual game where you can't get anything at all?" Sun Guoliang and Yan Jing glared.

His son used to spend a lot of time selling luxury goods and so on, and he felt that he was quite prodigal. Who would have thought that for virtual things in a computer, one million dollars would be spent so quickly? This is simply...

"No, I didn't lose that much. I did lose a bit playing Legend before. After all, I started playing relatively late, and a lot of the equipment didn't appreciate much in value. But if I don't play anymore, I can still sell it for more than 200,000 yuan, so I only lost a few dollars. Ten thousand dollars.

Fantasy Westward Journey is different here. Although 500,000 has been invested now, many equipments are increasing in value. I bought a piece of equipment the day before yesterday, which was a weapon. At that time, someone offered me 100,000 yuan if he didn’t have it, so I ignored him.

Now that everything is cleaned up, I should be able to sell it for about 700,000 and still make 200,000. It’s not that I flattered myself with the valuation, but that a friend actually offered to buy it, but I didn’t sell it. "

"Virtual things are just a bunch of data. You can swipe as much as you want, right? So valuable?" Guo Yue, who knew a little about games, was also a little confused.

"I don't know the specifics." Sun Yi didn't play games, so he shook his head, "But I attended a meeting at Xuri Technology before.

At that time, Rising Sun Technology invited many economic experts to formulate an economic model based on Fantasy Westward Journey. What Yang Dongxu talks about the most is the issue of equipment appreciation and value preservation, and it also involves the summoned beast babies. In short, it is very complicated, and I don’t understand it very well. "

"Economic experts, are you going to formulate an economic model for a game?" Sun Guoliang felt that the Internet industry was not as simple as he imagined, with a pile of virtual data piled up.
