2 Negotiations With Durandal, The Acquisition Of Mihoyo

Mo Li took a closer look at the other person photo carefully, and finally came to the conclusion that it was really too similar!

"I'm planning to acquire this studio, let's make a phone call first to ask about the situation"

Mo Li took out his mobile phone and dialed the contact information provided by the system.

"beep..."

The call was quickly connected, and there was a mature and indifferent voice from the other side.

Mo Li's pupils shrank, really... even her voice seemed alike! !

"Hello? Who is it?"

Mo Li quickly came back to his senses, and after pondering for a second, he went straight to the topic: "I heard that your studio needs investment?"

As soon as these words came out, Durandal, who wanted to hang up the phone, paused slightly.

She was surprised that someone was willing to invest in her shabby studio?

"Hello sir, may I ask who you are..."

"My name is Mo Li, and I am a game lover. Recently, I recently have an idea to make a game, but I lack the manpower"

"I accidentally saw the information of your studio. I also tried the game "Save the Girl". Although the gameplay is not very good, I can see that your team is very hard working."

After Mo Li said this without belittle or specifically praised their studio, it also made Durandal impression of him improved a bit.

She knows very well that the games made by her studio were indeed far from ideal.

But this is really what the sisters in the studio made with great care.

However, the results are very poor, and it is almost impossible to attract investment.

In this way, the studio may close down soon, and the game "Save the Girl", which they have devoted all their efforts to make, will also cease to operate.

This is what they all don't want to see.

Now that someone who is interested in investing has finally arrived, she still has some expectations in her heart.

However, whether to accept the investment or not will still have to be discussed in person.

"Sir, if we have time, we can make an appointment to discuss in detail"

Naturally, Mo Li would not refuse : "I'm free now, you can decide where to go, I'll go over immediately"

"Then, it's in the Fateful Cafe on the Xihuan Road"

...

After hanging up the phone, Mo Li drove directly to his destination.

He was a little strange. The location of the coffee shop was obviously near Mihoyo's studio, so why not let him go directly to the studio?

However, Mo Li was just curious and did not delve further.

And there's a reason why he started talking about investments instead of acquisition at the beginning.

First, in the system introduction, "Mihoyo" did not mention to sell the "Mihoyo" studio, but only said investment.

Therefore, in order to meet the other party, Mo Li decided to first meet the other party in the name of investment.

Since the system has said that there is an opportunity to acquire it, then Mo Li naturally intends to give it a try.

Furthermore, whether to acquire, Mo Li believes that it is better to investigate.

Although Durandal is indeed very beautiful, but... that's not the reason to let yourself be taken advantage of, right?

...

Soon, Mo Li drove to the Fateful coffee shop.

"The name is not bad, the established fate~"

The environment in the coffee shop, coupled with soft music, makes the atmosphere of the shop look elegant and quiet.

Mo Li took out his mobile phone and dialed the number just now : "Miss Durandal, I'm here"

"I see you"

Mo Li turned around and took a look around, and soon found that a slender, tall and beautiful woman in an OL outfit was waving at him. [1]

"Even the body shape is so similar to Durandal!" Mo Li was extremely suprised.

Walking over with gentle steps, Mo Li smiled: "Hello, let me introduce again, my name is Mo Li"

"Just call me Durandal"

Durandal also got up slowly and gave a polite smile.

"Want something to drink?"

"Just feel free if you want"

After sending the waiter away, Mo Li went straight to the point.

"Miss Durandal, let's go straight to the topic."

"Let me ask you a question first, what do you think your studio has to attract me to invest?"

Durandal opened her mouth and stared at Mo Li's young and handsome face, not knowing how to answer.

What's the matter? don't you have the idea of investing? Why are you still here make thing difficult...

"Our studio is a group of people who truly love games. If Mr. Mo Li is here trying to make money... then I can't guarantee that the money you put in will be paid back."

After hearing what the other party said, Mo Li couldn't help laughing : "What an honest woman..."

"I understand... The reason why I came to see you is because I saw your studio's attitude towards games"

"As for making money and hobbies... I don't think it's possible to have the best of both worlds"

After a pause, Mo Li put away the smile on his face and said seriously: "I have a very good game idea. As long as I make it seriously, the return rate will be at least 10 times."

Mo Li was talking about it in a petty way.

After all, Honkai Impact 3rd is not a buyout game. As long as the game is updated and new characters appear, the game revenue will continue to grow.

"However, the game can't be developed by me alone, and I don't want to spend so much energy creating my own studio"

Hearing this, Durandal frowned slightly: "You mean... You want to invest in our studio to make this game?"

Mo Li : "..."

Big girl, it's okay for you to be honest, why do you still look so naive now...

"Cough... Miss Durandal, this joke is getting bigger..."

"I'll pay for it, create the idea, and then give the results to your studio... Do you think it's possible?"

Durandal also found that she was stupid, and couldn't help but blushed slightly, feeling embarrassed.

"I mean... I want to buy your studio!"

"Huh?" Durandal's face was stunned, and the topic turned a little too fast, making her unable to react.

"Didn't you say... you want to invest?"

How could Mo Li think about investing? What he said before was just a face-to-face talk with the founder of "Mihoyo".

Mo Li's face is remained calm and his heart is stop beating: "It is true that there is an investment idea, but after thinking about it carefully, rather than investing, direct acquisition will be better"

Durandal : "..."

She shook her head in disappointment : "Sorry, Mr. Mo Li, I have no intention of selling the studio. Although I am the founder, it was established by me and other employees in the studio."

"This matter, even if I agree, the rest of the studio will not agree."

Mo Li nodded : "Understandable, but... can I talk to the rest of the studio? After all, you should be well aware that your studio's current predicament... I'm afraid it won't attract investment."

"Even if those employees work for you for nothing, does your studio still have money to develop other games?"

"We are also people who love games, why don't we work together to make a game that the world likes and pays for?"
