Awards?

With Tiansheng's scale and the popularity of games such as "Legend" and "Miracle", it is indeed not a big problem to win an award. Although it is useless, it is at least an honor, which can more or less increase the popularity, so it is not bad to participate.

Moreover, the Electronic Information Industry Development Research Institute is a direct unit of the Ministry of Information Industry, and the Ministry of Information Industry is the competent department of the Internet industry. It is led by it to host the event. Since an invitation is sent, you have to give some face no matter what.

After pondering for a moment, Wang Liu nodded and said, "Go and see, when will the annual meeting be held?"

Li Xiangtao said: "August 20, next Wednesday."

"Will next Wednesday? Is it held in Beijing?"

"Yes, it will be held at the New Century Hotel in Beijing at 10 am on Wednesday."

"Okay, then I'll go over and take a look at it." Wang Liu smacked his lips and agreed with a smile.

...

The MBA also delayed some courses due to the epidemic, so there was no holiday during the summer vacation. He attended classes as usual on weekends and stayed in the city for two days. On Friday afternoon, Wang Liu returned to Beijing again.

I had two days of classes on the weekend, handled the company's affairs on Monday and Tuesday, and inspected the computer room that had just been built and put into use. Wednesday was in a blink of an eye.

At around 9:40 in the morning, New Century Hotel.

Wang Liu rushed over at the juncture. Li Xiangtao also arrived in the capital early last night and prepared to attend the annual meeting together. He also arrived at the scene together.

As he got off the car, he introduced to Wang Liu: "The annual meeting was held in the Century Hall, and it is expected to last from morning to night. The day is the summit forum and the evening is the award ceremony. It starts from 7 pm to 9:30 pm, and it is expected to last two and a half hours."

Wang Liu nodded and asked while walking: "Have you been asking about the news of the New Year's meeting these days? Who will attend today?"

"I've learned a little bit, NetEase, Huayi, Kingsoft, and other well-known domestic game companies will come to the event held by the Electronic Information Industry Development Research Institute. This is a bit of face to give."

Wang Liu smiled and thought to himself, if you don’t look at monks and Buddha’s faces, who dares not give this face to the event organized by a subordinate unit of the Ministry of Information Industry?

"By the way, I heard that Sina Le Valley will come today, and I will probably meet us later." Li Xiangtao suddenly said again.

"Is Sina coming too?" Wang Liu narrowed his eyes. From the last time he opened his blind dig for Tiansheng's corner to the launch of the "poison pill plan" to resist Tiansheng's acquisition, they have basically broken up with Sina.

When I bumped into it today, it was really because my enemies were so narrow.

"I heard that although Sina Le Valley has poor performance, it is also a game company. It is indeed qualified to attend this annual meeting. The news is likely to be true. I just don't know if Wang Yan will come here in person." Li Xiangtao added.

If it really comes, it will be really jealous of enemies when they meet. However, it is a public place, so it shouldn't be a direct scolding. At most, it's just a few sarcastic words to each other... Wang Liu thought to himself and said casually: "Don't worry about him, whether he comes or not has no effect on us."

While speaking, I entered the hotel and came to the Century Hall. As soon as I entered the door, a staff member of the annual meeting warmly welcomed him:

"Mr. Wang, Mr. Li, welcome. I am Shao Xianping, the on-site director of the CIDI Company, the organizer of this annual meeting. Thank you for taking the time to support the two of you in your busy schedule."

"Mr. Shao, you are polite. This annual meeting is the first grand event of the domestic game industry. We are honored to be here to participate." Wang Liu smiled and shook hands and said politely.

Shao Xianping smiled and said, "The annual meeting will only start later. Mr. Wang and Mr. Li can go to the backstage for a while. All other colleagues in the domestic game industry are here. Mr. Wang can get to know and communicate with everyone first. After the annual meeting begins, we will appear with everyone.

I have to welcome the guests here. If I can’t leave, let the staff take you there. Mr. Wang and Mr. Li, don’t mind.”

"No, Mr. Shao, please do yours first." Wang Liu smiled and followed the staff to the backstage with Li Xiangtao.

In the lounge.

A group of game company leaders gathered together. They were talking and laughing, but they heard footsteps outside the door. Someone said, "Maybe Minister Lu is here, let's welcome them together."

Everyone nodded, stopped to talk, stood up in unison, set off and looked at the door together, and then saw Wang Liu being led by the staff into the door.

Everyone was stunned for a second, and then suddenly burst into laughter.

Wang Liu was confused: "What's wrong? Is this so funny?"

"Mr. Wang, don't get me wrong. We are not laughing at you. The staff just came in and said that Minister Lu of the Information Department will also come to the scene to attend the annual meeting today and will also come to meet us.

I just heard someone coming, and we all thought it was Minister Lu. When we came in, we found out that it was you who came." Someone explained with a smile.

Wang Liu suddenly realized, and laughed in silence, "So that's the case. I said why are everyone standing there? I said we welcome me. I thought I don't have such a big face."

"Mr. Wang is humble. With Tiansheng's current position in the Internet field, I am afraid that no one will welcome him? At least I am very happy to meet Mr. Wang today. Let me introduce me, I am Zhu Jun, Jiucheng."

"Hello, Mr. Zhu, I'm very happy to see you." Wang Liu shook hands with a smile.

"NetEase Ding Lei." Ding Lei, next to him, also greeted him with a smile and stretched out his hand.

Wang Liu looked at him. The Internet tycoon in his previous life is still a little immature now. With his eyes and a smile, he always feels a little nervous. Wang Liu then stretched out his hand and said with a smile: "Hello, Mr. Ding."

"Saiwei Chuangshi Bao Pinzhi."

"Qingshan asked Bojun."

...

Wang Liu shook hands with everyone and met each other. Although they were in the same industry and competed with each other, they were reluctant to slap each other in public, everyone was very polite in public, at least they were still able to live up to their faces, and the atmosphere of talking and laughing was very harmonious.

After getting to know each other, Wang Liu has basically seen all the famous game manufacturers in China, and even met an acquaintance - Shen Jiaxing, Shanghai Ubisoft Company.

When he just won the agency rights of "Legend" and was promoted in China, Wang Liu originally wanted to find Ubisoft as an agent and use its channels to help him open up the market.

As a result, Ubisoft wanted to share too high, and he didn't let go of it. In the end, the cooperation ended in disagreement, and Wang Liu could only build his own channels to promote it.

Today, Ubisoft, the first domestic channel merchant, has gradually declined with the rise of online games, and life has become increasingly sad.

Shen Jiaxing was probably a little embarrassed, so he simply said hello to Wang Liu, and then he didn't say anything more, retreating until one day he started chatting with others.

Of course, Wang Liu knew that he might have bumped into an enemy today before entering the door, so he naturally saw it without any surprise.
