I was reborn and stayed in school to lie down. I really don’t want to roll anymore!

It turns out that it’s easy to make money from games.

Jiang Hao was drinking tea in the office and couldn't help but sigh.

It is no wonder that Tencent’s main revenue comes from games and its focus is on games.

With such a large influx of cash flow, miHoYo's original situation of betting everything on one thing has now become a problem-free one.

If miHoYo wants to invest in new games, it can invest; if it wants to develop new versions, it can develop them. Suddenly, funds have become the thing that miHoYo has the most.

I have no desire to go public. After all, I am not short of money, and I am still angry.

"Boss Jiang, what else can we improve on in this game?"

...

"I don't know much about games. I just thought you guys couldn't pull in the overseas market, so I just wanted to give you a heads up."

As he spoke, Jiang Hao shook his head and waved his hands.

The way Mr. Cai looked at him made him feel like he was omnipotent.

This is not what Jiang Hao wants, and the current success of "Genshin Impact" is not due to him.

If he interferes too much, I'm really afraid that miHoYo's development will go downhill.

But having said that, Jiang Hao couldn't help but look up and make a suggestion.

"How about raising salaries within your company? Or maybe find a time to distribute dividends?"

...

"Dividends?"

Mr. Cai's eyes flashed with doubt, as if he had never considered this matter before.

"Boss Jiang, are you short of funds recently?"

...

"It's not that I'm short of money, I'm just worried that your executive team is short of money!"

Hearing this, Jiang Hao couldn't help but chuckle.

How could he be short of money? The title of Jiangnan Cash King is well deserved.

Besides, he is the richest man in China and the third richest man in the world. It sounds a bit funny to be asked if he is short of money.

While smiling, he explained to Mr. Cai.

"I don't think you, MiHoYo, have any intention of going public. With so much money on the books, you can consider distributing dividends."

"You and your founders can't just live on your salary, right?"

"Even if you are not short of money, they may have realistic pressures."

"Now that the new game is so successful, I can discuss it with you guys and then find a time to share some money to ease the financial pressure."

Mr. Cai’s entire team is starting a business for the first time.

When starting a business for the first time, founders often face a problem, which is lack of money.

Even if the company is rich, the individuals may not be rich.

Generally, it is only after the C or D round that one will increase his salary, benefits and bonus within the company.

True financial freedom can only be achieved after going public.

Mr. Cai’s company is different. Jiang Hao can see that the other party has no intention of re-listing.

In this case, with so much money on the books, apart from the money needed for operations and reserves, dividends should be distributed.

Mr. Cai’s founding team members should not end up leaving the company just because of low income.

Moreover, several capital companies were involved in MiHoYo's previous rounds of financing.

Now that the company is no longer listed and its revenue is so substantial, dividends can also ease the mentality of these investors and prevent them from rushing to sell off and withdraw their investment.

It can even be said that if MiHoYo can maintain its revenue and continue to pay dividends, investors will often not withdraw.

Although there is no chance of skyrocketing wealth after listing, the stable cash return is still good.

"Boss Jiang, is this... is this okay?"

"The company is paying dividends after only one profitable quarter?"

Mr. Cai asked tentatively, but there was a hint of anticipation on his face.

In fact, he had thought so when he saw the money on the company's books.

The company has no new projects to launch yet, so there is no need for so much money for daily operations.

Not to mention other members of the founding team, even Mr. Cai himself is actually short of money.

Although the company's money can meet his needs in terms of cars and other aspects, it is not personal assets after all.

To meet the daily necessities of life at home and to purchase some high-end consumption items you want, you still have to pay with your own money.

Now that Jiang Hao mentioned this, the thoughts that had been suppressed in his heart couldn't help but emerge, and grew madly in his heart.

"Haha! What's wrong with that?"

"I am also one of the shareholders, and Lu Weiming and others will agree to the proposal."

...

"Don't worry about the other shareholders. I think they are even more eager for this!"

Jiang Hao's words bewitched Mr. Cai like magic.

Before leaving get off work that evening, several founders were called into the office to discuss Jiang Hao's proposal.

Several young people have invested a lot of effort in miHoYo and have been in business for many years, so when they hear the word dividends, they are naturally eager to get it.

However, Jiang Hao did not follow up on the subsequent dividend distribution.

I returned to the hotel early in the evening and had dinner with the rather nervous Andy Lau.

The next morning, he followed Liu Qingyun to the Magic Exchange to prepare to ring the bell.

Although I have participated in many launch ceremonies, this is my first time in China.

Jiang Hao was walking in the bell-ringing venue in a suit when a man came towards him.

"Mr. Jiang, welcome to the ceremony."

...

"Director Zhou, why are you being so polite to me?"

“I founded Kirin Battery, so of course I will come to participate.”

The man in front of him is Director Zhou from the Provincial State-owned Assets Supervision and Administration Commission, and he is also the cadre actually responsible for the listing process of Kirin Battery.

Otherwise, with Andy Lau alone, there would be no sign of Kirin batteries being launched on the market!

After exchanging a few brief pleasantries with Director Zhou, Jiang Hao discovered that there were indeed not many people in the venue.

Apart from a number of senior executives from Kirin Battery and a representative from Tencent, only Director Zhou from the Jiangnan Provincial Government was present.

Of course, Director Zhou also mentioned this to him just now.

The leaders were very concerned about the launch of Kirin Battery and participated in the thank-you banquet in the evening.

That’s right, it should have been a celebration banquet, but Director Zhou and Andy Lau hosted a thank-you banquet.

It seems like going public is a way to thank all the leaders and shareholders.

As for Kirin Battery's final IPO valuation before its listing, it was set at 500 billion yuan.

Logically speaking, after Tencent completed its financing for Ou Hu, Kirin Battery's valuation had already reached 450 billion. However, this listing was still very conservative.

Even though a company with a market value of 500 billion is considered a leading company in the domestic stock market, it seems insignificant compared to the market value of several leading stocks with trillions of yuan.

At least Jiang Hao personally feels that after the IPO, the valuation will at least double, and there will be no problem in raising funds through the final IPO at a price of 1000 billion.

However, the listing was not organized by him, and Jiang Hao did not want to interfere too much in the listing which had some political implications.

Moreover, he has confidence, but the leaders of Jiangnan Province may not have the same confidence.

The market value of 500 billion yuan has already exceeded their expectations. It is enough for the province to have such a large battery manufacturing company.

Not to mention that Kirin Battery has now created nearly 10,000 jobs. After the second phase is completed and the new workshop is built, it will provide more jobs.

Although Kirin Battery is still relatively low-key in China, it is considered a good company in the eyes of provincial leaders!
