Chapter 327 Contract Signing
Zhuang Aimin was pleased that Zeng Wenjie was able to reach a cooperation agreement with a major company like Tencent.

This is also an incredibly illustrious resume.

If the collaboration with penguins is a great success, then that would be even more incredible.

After a brief phone conversation with his senior, Zeng Wenjie waited for Tony Ma to arrive.

Soon, the van carrying Tony Ma arrived at the startup base.

The school arranged for security personnel to cordon off a space for Tony Ma to pass through, preventing reporters from blocking his way.

Tony Ma smiled and waved to the reporters. Zeng Wenjie heard the commotion and came down from the second floor to greet him.

Mu Qingyang stood beside him, staring blankly at Tony Ma.

"Hello, Mr. Zeng."

Good morning, Mr. Ma.

The two shook hands and greeted each other, and the photographers all raised their cameras to take pictures.

Zeng Wenjie introduced Tony Ma: "This is Mu Qingyang. The QQ number that your company recovered last time was left by her late mother."

Tony Ma knew this was an opportunity to win over netizens, so he immediately extended his hand to Mu Qingyang and said, "Hello, classmate. I am Tony Ma, a representative of Tencent. One of the purposes of my visit to Fengyuan is to express my sincere apologies and greetings to you on behalf of all the staff of the company."

"Hello, Mr. Ma!" Mu Qingyang shook hands with Tony Ma, feeling a little flustered.

She quickly shook her head and said, "No...it's okay, no need to be so polite. You've already returned the QQ number to me."

Tony greeted Mu Qingyang with gentle words, and the reporters captured the scene. They could write another article later, praising Tencent and showcasing the demeanor of a large company.

Zeng Wenjie said, "Please come in, Mr. Ma. Let's go and sign the contract first."

Tony nodded and said, "Please, Mr. Zeng."

Zeng Wenjie said to Principal Gao, "Professor Gao, this contract needs your signature. Please come and sign it as well."

Principal Gao was taken aback, then laughed and said, "You have something to do with this old man like me?"

“The project will ultimately be carried out at Fengyuan College, so of course it needs your signature as the principal!” Zeng Wenjie said with a smile.

Principal Gao thought Zeng Wenjie was really good at making things happen. In this way, once the contract was signed, his name would appear in major news media, and he would become famous again.

The reporters followed them upstairs and into conference room 209. Although it was a bit crowded, there was just enough room to stand.

Under the flash of cameras, Zeng Wenjie, Principal Gao, and Tony Ma signed the contract for "Hero Kill".

The contract includes a performance-based clause: if the game "Hero Kill" reaches 300,000 concurrent online users, Zeng Wenjie will receive a certain amount of equity in Tencent Games Hall.

Three hundred thousand concurrent online users is already a high number. Even Tencent's current hit game, "QQ Three Kingdoms," only reached a peak of five hundred thousand concurrent online users.

However, Zeng Wenjie still felt that Xiao Ma had underestimated the potential of this game. Nevertheless, he would be happy to see it succeed if the conditions were more lenient, and he wouldn't say anything more.

The contract was very generous to the penguin, which is used to being domineering.

Tencent will bear the game's development costs and provide technical support, Zeng Wenjie will be in charge of the entire project, and Fengyuan will provide assistance.

The copyright of the developed game belongs to Zeng Wenjie, while the promotion after the game's launch is handled by Tencent, and the resulting revenue is split 50/50.

As for how Zeng Wenjie divides things with Fengyuan, that's their business.

Tony Ma had already gotten a free copy of Happy Landlords from Zeng Wenjie, and given Mr. Tang's hints about giving young people opportunities, he naturally couldn't be too harsh on the contract regarding "Hero Kill." Therefore, the contract terms were basically acceptable to both parties.

After the contract was signed and both parties took a group photo, the Q&A session with reporters began.

"Mr. Ma, how did you come up with the idea of ​​collaborating with a college student? And on a game development project no less!"

Tony adjusted his glasses and smiled, "Mr. Zeng is a man with many ingenious ideas. My visit this time was actually just a coincidence. After talking with him, we hit it off and he came up with many ideas that seemed both imaginative and feasible."

“Our CEO Zeng is not just a college student; he has already achieved great success in entrepreneurship. When I was eighteen, I had no idea what I was doing!”

"Mr. Ma, what kind of game is 'Hero Kill'? Do you think Fengyuan can shoulder the responsibility of developing this game?" another reporter asked.

“This is a card game conceived by Mr. Zeng. After a preliminary understanding, I believe this game has unlimited potential, which is why I couldn’t wait to finalize the deal with Mr. Zeng. Fengyuan is a prestigious university with a strong academic foundation and is fully capable of undertaking the development of this game. Moreover, Tencent will also provide technical support.” Tony Ma answered the questions methodically.

Zeng Wenjie, on the other hand, faced more pointed and demanding problems, but he was still able to handle them with ease.

However, Zeng Wenjie could also foresee that reporters would likely be frequently coming to ambush him at Fengyuan Hospital in the future.

This would be a troublesome thing, after all, one of the main reasons he frequents the school is Mu Qingyang. If he is constantly bothered by reporters when he is with her, it would be a real headache.

"Dear journalists, we still have some details to discuss with Mr. Ma. Fengyuan will hold a press conference afterwards, and you are all welcome to attend," Zeng Wenjie said.

The reporters could only regretfully take their leave for the time being.

Once things calmed down, Zeng Wenjie began discussing some more specific details with Tony Ma.

Tony Ma promised that the project director he sent would only oversee the project's progress and report to the company, and would not interfere in any aspect of the development.

“Mr. Ma, let’s have lunch together. It’s getting late. We can continue our conversation at the table,” Zeng Wenjie said.

“Okay, no problem. I’ll probably be heading back after dinner,” Tony nodded and said.

Principal Gao was overjoyed. Not only did Tony Ma make a sudden visit, but he also reached a cooperation agreement with Zeng Wenjie, and the cooperative project was actually kept at Fengyuan! Now, Fengyuan is going to be a top-ranked university, and the leaders of Chongqing University next door are probably green with envy!
In the afternoon, Zeng Wenjie accompanied the school leaders to see Tony Ma off.

"Teacher Gao, let's try to finalize the staffing before the New Year, and start work immediately after the New Year," Zeng Wenjie said.

"No problem, I'll find someone for you. You can come for the interview later," Principal Gao said with a smile, his eyes full of admiration as he looked at Zeng Wenjie.

The school leaders were also excited and eager to recommend capable individuals to the position, hoping to gain fame in the process.

Zeng Wenjie said, "I will split the profits from the game with the school 50/50, and set up a special poverty alleviation fund in the school to provide targeted assistance to impoverished students."

Principal Gao was taken aback, not expecting Zeng Wenjie to be so generous. He nodded and said, "You decide on this matter."

Zeng Wenjie was essentially returning the favor to Fengyuan.

Li Jiaqiang helped him, the university president supported him and gave him opportunities, and now it's his turn to give back to Fengyuan.

As a result, news spread that Zeng Wenjie had reached a cooperation agreement with Tencent and that the cooperative project would be kept at Fengyuan.

After confirming the news, no one could help but be surprised, given Tencent's reputation! Moreover, the fact that Tencent's CEO personally finalized the project was truly astounding.

Zeng Wenjie's name has once again appeared on the front pages of major news outlets.

He had just been named one of the province's top ten outstanding youths, and not long after, he made headlines again.
