Reborn Xiangjiang as a Tycoon

Chapter 209 "Western Cowboy"

During the time when Shirley Lansing was handing over her resignation, Lin Baicheng came to Zhonghe Game Company.

It has been a while since the game company was established. The company's framework has been set up, some game development employees have been recruited, and all the equipment has been purchased.

The initial capital of 10 million US dollars is more than enough to develop an arcade game without investing in building a factory.

Since the establishment of the company, apart from investing US$4 million, Lin Baicheng sent a financial staff to the company and did not intervene in the rest. Lin Baicheng did not attach great importance to this joint venture, so he only sent financial staff to ensure that

His interests are enough.

Unlike Lin Baicheng, Phil Smith and Wade Thomas took it very seriously. Phil Smith was mainly responsible for the establishment of the entire company, and Wade Thomas also provided support through Goldman Sachs channels.

For example, among the game development employees, several were recruited from Atari and Fairchild Semiconductor through Goldman Sachs channels. They are rare talents.

Phil Smith also thought that the company could develop several popular games, allowing him to benefit from it and make a lot of money. Needless to say, Wade Thomas, although he is an executive of Goldman Sachs, in terms of wealth,

The youngest among the three, this time Zhonghe Game Company has 5% of his shares. He has high hopes for the development of the company and hopes that through this company, his net worth will skyrocket.

Now, the company's equipment has been delivered and the employees have been recruited. It would be unreasonable for Lin Baicheng not to come over. After all, the development of the game requires his intervention. If he doesn't come over, there is no way the company will keep waiting for him.

.

It's rare for Lin Baicheng to come to Zhonghe Game Company, so of course Phil Smith and Wade Thomas will also come.

Phil Smith said: "Alan, now that the company has been established, it's up to you to lead the employees to develop games."

Wade Thomas asked aloud: "Alan, do you have any ideas about the first game to be developed by the company?"

"I've already thought about what game to develop."

Lin Baicheng nodded and said to the surprise of Phil Smith and Wade Thomas: "This game features a Western cowboy as the protagonist, and the name is temporarily called "Western Cowboy"."

"This is a pistol shooting game. It is a side-scrolling game. The game screen continues to advance from left to right. The protagonist, the cowboy, fights with the enemy through gun battles. The style must be Western style. The details depend on the developer's grasp.

Already."

"I think there will be a big market for Western style."

After hearing this, Wade Thomas said, here in the United States, the western cowboy style is still very popular. Whether it is movies, TV shows, novels, games, etc., the market for western style has always been large.

"Alan, no matter what, you still need to bring along a group of R&D personnel. I'm afraid they don't understand your idea."

Phil Smith knew very well that the development of games still needed to rely on Lin Baicheng. It was precisely because he valued Lin Baicheng's ability in game development that he invited Lin Baicheng to establish a game company together, and let Lin Baicheng get the largest share of the company's shares.

"I'll try my best. As you know, I'm very busy."

Lin Baicheng nodded. He would take some time to guide the employees of Zhonghe Game Company, but he would not put too much energy here. After all, this company is not under his control.

Phil Smith and Wade Thomas have no objections to this. This was already agreed upon before establishing the game company.

Lin Baicheng went to meet with the game developers of Zhonghe Game Company and told them about the research and development theme. At the same time, he also outlined some of the gameplay. They had to fill in the plot and details themselves.

In addition, Lin Baicheng didn't care whether the game developers understood what he said, and directly asked them to develop the character's game style first. He would read it when he comes over next time, and compare it with the original game in his mind to see.

What a difference it will make.

In this case, if it doesn't work, it will definitely have to be modified again, which will not only waste R&D time but also waste R&D funds.

But there is nothing that can be done. Lin Baicheng would rather waste some research and development time and funds than waste his own time. His time is more valuable.

After evening, Lin Baicheng left Zhonghe Game Company and returned to Beverly Hills.

When Lin Baicheng came back, his father Lin Haishan and mother Zhao Huilan were already in the villa.

"Dad, Mom, you came over and you didn't let me know."

Lin Baicheng walked over and sat down next to his mother, Zhao Huilan.

Lin Haishan said: "Is there anything to inform you? We are not going back to Xiangjiang until tomorrow anyway, so we don't see much of you."

Zhao Huilan said: "Son, this is your sister's birthday, do you want to go back?"

"I won't go back."

Lin Baicheng said: "I have already agreed with my little sister that when your parents go back tomorrow, you can just take my gift back with you."

"It's just your birthday. It's okay if you don't go back. Your career is more important."

Lin Haishan said aloud that before Lin Baicheng became rich, there was no big celebration for someone's birthday in the family, and they just ate longevity noodles and a few eggs.

"Your dad is right."

Zhao Huilan nodded in agreement, and then said: "Son, although your career is important, your body is also important. Don't be too busy. Remember to take care of yourself."

"Mom, don't worry, I will have good food and shelter, and I won't treat myself badly."

Lin Baicheng agreed with a smile, and then said: "Dad, Mom, after you return to Xiangjiang, stay for a while and then go to Japan to have fun. Then I will arrange for someone to be your guide and take a look around."

"Let's talk about this later."

Lin Haishan said: "This time we came to the United States and spent a lot of time. Xiangjiang is indeed different from abroad, but no matter how good it is, it is not as good as my hometown. Whenever you want to travel, your mother and I will go out to play again. Normally

We are still used to staying in Xiangjiang."

Zhao Huilan nodded and said: "Your father is right, son, you don't have to worry about us, we will take care of ourselves."

"That's okay. You can play if you want. Just remember not to think about saving money."

Lin Baicheng is not opposed to it. It is better for parents to decide whether they want to travel around the world. If they don't like or are not used to long-term travel, but he insists on arranging a trip for them, they will not be happy.

It goes against his original intention.

The next morning, Lin Baicheng sent his parents to the airport and watched them go through the security check with their bodyguards.
