Chapter 196: Chapter 196: Establishing a Game Company_1
In the blink of an eye, May had arrived.
After the festival, Shen Dong received a call from Wang Xiaocong, who said, "I Am Not a Pharmacist" had passed the project approval process.
Now, the filming of "I Am Not a Pharmacist" was no longer a problem.
Shen Dong inquired about some details, and Wan Pengfei sought connections, which made Penguin Film Industry wary. Wang Xiaocong then threatened that if they continued to obstruct the approval of "I Am Not a Pharmacist," any film involving Penguin Film Industry would not be allowed to screen at Qianda Cinemas Chain.
At that point, Penguin Film Industry could no longer hold out.
With Penguin Film Industry no longer obstructing, "I Am Not a Pharmacist" smoothly passed the approval.
It must be said that some things still had to be handled by people like Wang Xiaocong and Wan Pengfei Wang Jingpeng.
If not for the intervention by these two, he really wouldn’t have known who to ask for help.
...
Wen Muye received the news that "I Am Not a Pharmacist" had passed the approval, and his expression was extremely ugly.
He thought that with Penguin Film Industry taking action, they should have been able to obstruct "I Am Not a Pharmacist" and get his own film approved first.
He had already settled on a name for his film, called "I Am Not an Immortal Pharmacist."
But unexpectedly, Penguin Film Industry failed to obstruct it.
This meant that the screenplay he wrote was now completely useless.
He had interviewed many of the people involved and spent nearly half a year writing the screenplay, without having had a good sleep during all that time.
All his efforts had gone down the drain.
Wen Muye was full of regret and unwillingness.
If only he had asked Shen Dong in more detail about what movie they were shooting, what the theme was, and if Shen Dong had shown him the script beforehand, when Shen Dong had called him that time, things would have been different, and he would certainly have been the director of "I Am Not a Pharmacist."
Unfortunately, at that time, his mind was full of rushing to write the script and not wanting to deal with anything else.
"Ah, let’s try once more," he thought.
Wen Muye sighed and dialed Shen Dong’s phone number.
Soon, the call connected.
Wen Muye immediately said, "Hello, Mr. Shen, this is Wen Muye."
Shen Dong asked, "What do you want?"
Wen Muye sincerely said, "Mr. Shen, I have done a very in-depth study of the character Chen Yong, and I believe I am the most suitable person to be the director of ’I Am Not a Pharmacist.’ Plus, I am willing to forgo my director’s fee, just give me this opportunity."
Shen Dong responded indifferently, "Director Wen, I have already said that Xu Zheng has been hired as the director of this film, and I am not going to go back on my word. Let’s hope we can work together another time."
After saying that, Shen Dong hung up the phone.
It didn’t matter if Wen Muye offered to direct without a fee, or even paid to direct; Shen Dong was not going to change his mind.
He believed Xu Zheng would definitely make the film a success.
As for Wen Muye, well, unfortunately.
Obviously, the previous obstruction of "I Am Not a Pharmacist" was the work of Wen Muye, who had gone to Penguin Film Industry for help in lobbying against it.
Now that the obstruction had failed, he was coming back to ask for the director’s position again.
Naturally, Shen Dong was not inclined to offer any goodwill.
Of course, Shen Dong could understand Wen Muye’s frustration and that his actions could be seen as understandable.
But what of it? It wasn’t without offering a chance to the other party in the beginning; it was the other party who failed to seize it.
For anyone, some opportunities, once missed, are missed forever.
...
Morning
Shen Dong woke up to the sound of the system’s notification.
[Ding, Mi Xie You company will develop a Destroy series of games and Primordial God. Destroy 1’s revenue exceeded fifty million within a month of going online, over eight hundred million within two months, and Primordial God achieved over two billion US dollars in revenue within a year of going online, catapulting Mi Xie You company to become the second-largest gaming company, just behind Penguin Games...]
[Penguin Games will soon acquire the agency rights for "Absolute Sea Survival" in Dragon Country and will turn it into the most profitable game. Penguin Games will also integrate several studios...]
[Detailed information has been sent to the host’s mailbox, please check!]
Shen Dong immediately got up, powered on his computer, and logged in to check his email.
After reading it, a smile appeared on Shen Dong’s face.
As someone who played games occasionally, he naturally knew that games could be very profitable.
Games like Penguin Games’ "Cross the Line of Fire", "League of Heroes", and "King’s Glory" brought in tens of billions in revenue each year, true cash cows indeed.
This also made Penguin Games the largest game company in the country.
Knowing what was going to happen in the future, Shen Dong could register a game company, acquire those rising gaming companies and studios, and secure the rights to those games that would become hits, ensuring a huge and special profit.
No sooner said than done.
That very day, Shen Dong went to register and establish a game company, named Dongyan Games.
Now, under his name, he owned Dongyan Media, Shuidilao, Dongyan Investment, Lixing Rights, and Dongyan Games.
As for others, Dongshan Gold Company and Yikang Pharmaceutical, he had only invested in them, choosing to only take dividends and not interfere with management, which meant just waiting to collect money.
Now, Shen Dong had to start gradually considering the matters of his group company.
But there was no rush for that, taking it slow was fine.
After being busy, Shen Dong went to Dongyan Media and arrived at Chen Yuyan’s office.
Chen Yuyan excitedly reported to him that in April, the net profit had reached 180 million.
Compared to March, the net profit had more than doubled.
March was over 70 million.
Moreover, the number of fans for her hosts had also surged significantly.
Shen Dong knew this was thanks to the joint rectification by the state and Doule.
Over seventy percent of the guilds had issues, were put on the blacklist, and faced severe penalties.
This meant that those guilds’ hosts could no longer live stream or update short videos.
The remaining guilds simply could not compete with Dongyan Guild.
It could be said that Dongyan Guild now dominated Doule, crushing all other guilds.
Such an achievement was not at all surprising.
If it weren’t for many viewers having some psychological shadows over live-streamed sales, fearing fake products, Dongyan Guild’s net profit could have been even higher.
...
That day.
Shen Dong, accompanied by Dongyan Company’s legal team, went to a building in Fuchuang Center.
Shao Yangrong was Shen Dong’s bodyguard and driver; now, whenever Shen Dong went out to handle matters, Shao would drive.
The Bentley King was parked in a parking spot outside one of Fuchuang Center’s office buildings.
Shen Dong asked Shao Yangrong to wait in the car and, with his legal team, got out and entered the office building, coming to the door of an office on the third floor.
This was the location of Mi Xie You’s company.
Knowing that the games developed by Mi Xie You in the future would be a huge hit, and that Mi Xie You would become the second-largest game company after Penguin Games, Shen Dong naturally made it a priority to visit and intended to bring Mi Xie You under his wing upon learning that Mi Xie You was seeking financing.
Shen Dong knocked on the door.
Soon, a young man with glasses and somewhat messy hair opened the door.
"Hello, I am Shen Dong," Shen Dong said with a smile.
"Mr. Shen, I’m Cao Minjie, please come in," the young man said with a smiling face upon hearing it was Shen Dong.
Cao Minjie was the one who had talked to Shen Dong when he called.
