Two Mercedes-Benz SUVs, one in front and one behind, sandwiched a Rolls-Royce between them, attracting the attention of many drivers overtaking them.
They arrived at the office building where Galaxy Network was located.
The group walked with Wu Yun in their midst. For many, it was the first time they had witnessed the kind of entourage that accompanied the wealthy.
To be honest, such a sight was rare even in Huaxia, and the foreigners in their group were especially conspicuous.
The lobby receptionist stared at the group in surprise, only breaking into a smile when she spotted Wu Yun in the center. "President Wu!" she greeted.
The receptionist had long since recognized Wu Yun, the nation’s famous young tycoon, so she didn’t even ask his bodyguards to fill out the visitor log, simply opening the access gate for them.
One of the other people signing in whispered, "Who’s that? What a big shot!"
...
Since they were expecting him, Wang Chao and Qi Fei were already waiting at the office entrance with the documents ready.
They were momentarily taken aback by the size of Wu Yun’s entourage, but they quickly recovered and stepped forward with smiles to greet him.
"You all can rest here," Wu Yun said. "Wei Wu, get them settled. If anyone wants to play games, just download them and have at it."
With that, Wu Yun followed Wang Chao and Qi Fei toward his office.
"President Wu, I think we’re set!" Wang Chao exclaimed as soon as they entered the office. His voice was brimming with excitement; even after reviewing the report countless times, the numbers still thrilled him.
Wu Yun took the report from Wang Chao and sat on the sofa to look it over.
The first page was a data summary.
It clearly stated the number of registered users for Honor of Kings from January 1 to January 31: a total of 2.9 million!
Following that was a line graph analyzing the cumulative daily registrations.
It clearly showed a period of explosive growth around New Year’s Day, with smaller spikes every weekend.
Overall, the growth was very steady.
However, there was an even more critical metric for mobile games: daily active users.
Wu Yun glanced over the initial data and charts, then flipped straight to the section on daily active users.
He had to admit, Honor of Kings had incredible user stickiness. Out of 2.9 million registered users, the number of daily active users had actually reached 2.3 million!
A ratio of 79.31%!
The report went on to give a detailed statistical breakdown of active users by time of day and length of play sessions.
There are quite a lot of wealthy Huaxia People. As a free-to-play game, Honor of Kings could only turn a profit from paid skins and other prize draws.
Twenty percent of registered users, or 580,000 people, had made purchases, with an average spending of 85 yuan per person.
Honor of Kings’ revenue for January reached 49.3 million yuan! This surpassed all of their expectations, Wang Chao’s included.
Honor of Kings had allowed Galaxy Network to completely recoup its costs and turn a hefty profit.
"Have you sent this report to Tencent!?" Wu Yun asked, closing the report and looking at Wang Chao.
Admittedly, Honor of Kings’ success was inextricably linked to the support from Tencent.
"President Wu, we haven’t sent it yet! We were waiting for your go-ahead!"
Wu Yun instantly understood what Wang Chao was implying.
He nodded. "There’s no problem. Go ahead and send it to Li Chaohui and his team."
Afterward, Wu Yun discussed some internal company management matters with Wang Chao and Qi Fei.
After Wang Chao and Qi Fei left, Wu Yun finally turned on his computer, ready to play some games.
Yesterday, Wen Meng had gone back to Mianzhou to meet a high school friend. Qi Fei was still with the film crew, and Bai Yue was busy with her final exams. As of today, Wu Yun was back to a solitary life.
He opened up a livestream and saw that Susan had just finished a match, getting a "chicken dinner." He immediately jumped into her stream.
Seeing the notification in her chat, Susan quickly greeted him. "Welcome, President Wu! Are you up for some squads today, President Wu?"
A smile touched Wu Yun’s lips. ’I can’t help but read into that!’
On a whim, he first replied in her stream chat: "Wait for me! I’m hopping on now!"
Afterward, he used his phone to send a message to both Susan and Jiang Xinyi: "Squads tonight!"
Just as Wu Yun was happily gaming, Wang Hao received a call. No—it was Wu Yun’s old phone that was ringing.
Wang Hao glanced at the screen. The caller ID read, "Wesley - Villa Interior Designer." It suddenly dawned on him that Wu Yun had a villa under renovation in Rongcheng, though he had never been there himself.
"Hello, President Wu? This is Wesley!"
Wang Hao replied, "Hello, Mr. Wei. This is Wang Hao, President Wu’s secretary. This line now serves as his work phone. How can I help you?"
Inside Villa 16 of Black Eagle Manor, Wesley surveyed the bright, newly-renovated home and its luxurious furnishings, casually kicking a piece of cardboard packaging aside with his foot.
"Hello, Secretary Wang! I’m calling to inform President Wu that the renovation of his villa is complete. All that’s left is the final cleaning. When might President Wu be available to come for the final inspection?" Wesley wasn’t too surprised to be speaking with Wang Hao. He’d dealt with plenty of wealthy clients, and some had their subordinates manage the entire process, never even visiting the site themselves.
"Mr. Wei, please give me a moment. I will call you back shortly."
"Of course. Thank you, Secretary Wang."
...
Wang Hao quickly quit out of Honor of Kings. Ignoring the complaints from his teammates, he hurried toward Wu Yun’s office.
KNOCK KNOCK KNOCK~
"Come in! Quick, quick! There’s a guy peeking from behind the tree at bearing 80!"
RAT-A-TAT-TAT-TAT~ The sounds of gunfire and Wu Yun’s frantic mouse-clicking filled Wang Hao’s ears.
