Chapter 244: Extreme Survival’s Revenue

"President Chen, are we going on holiday so early?"

Shen Rou was shocked when she heard President Chen's words.

From early February to the end of February—that's a full month of vacation, and it's paid leave too.

That's too long, isn't it?

Normal companies only give about 7 to 10 days off for the Spring Festival.

She had never heard of anyone giving a month off.

"It's not early. The Little New Year is at the beginning of February, so people need to go home for the New Year. Besides, after working for so long this year, everyone needs a good rest and time to spend with their families."

"Get the message out to the heads of each company as soon as possible."

"Alright, President Chen."

Hearing President Chen's words, Shen Rou didn't ask any more questions and simply agreed.

…

January 31st, 12:00 PM.

The System's voice rang out in his mind.

[System is settling…]

[Detected remaining System Funds of 2.3 million; adopting the second settlement method.]

[System settlement complete. System Funds have been replenished. host, please check the system panel yourself.]

Chen Mo listened to the sound of the system settlement and leaned back in his chair helplessly.

Although he had tried very hard to spend money—distributing year-end bonuses, salaries, and so on in advance—the System Funds consumed still didn't allow him to settle all of the System Funds.

He let out a long sigh and focused his consciousness on the system panel.

[host: Chen Mo]

[System Funds: 30 million]

[Personal Funds: 190,000]

[Settlement Cycle: 8 months (Countdown…)]

[Special Mission: In four months, have remaining System Funds be less than 50%. Upon completion, a special reward will be issued.]

Looking at his personal funds, this second settlement method yielded a total of over 127,000 in personal funds.

Adding that to the 60,000+ he already had, his personal funds had now reached over 190,000.

He stared at the system panel for a long time, speechless.

He hadn't expected that even after preparing so many ways to spend money—even renting the remaining five floors of that 10-story office building and hiring Wang Yang to renovate them—he still hadn't fully converted the System Funds into personal funds.

15 million turned directly into over 120,000.

This huge discrepancy made Chen Mo gnash his teeth in frustration.

If it weren't for those two sneaks, Fang Chang and Luo Yuan, he would have been worth tens of millions this time.

These two people were once those he trusted the most, yet in the end, they stabbed him in the back at the most critical moment.

It seems the list of people to keep an eye on next year will need to add two more names.

Chen Mo opened a small notebook and wrote down the names of Fang Chang and Luo Yuan.

Afterward, he continued to look at the current System Funds.

Out of this 30 million, he could set aside 20% for charity funds, which was 6 million.

That meant he needed to spend 24 million.

However, the biggest expense right now wasn't this 24 million, but the revenue from the two games, [Tianlong] and [Extreme Survival].

The monthly revenue of [Tianlong] alone had already reached over 30 million.

[Extreme Survival] now had 4.5 million active players.

According to recent statistics, 40% of [Extreme Survival] players purchased a monthly card, 60% purchased a weekly card, and 80% purchased a daily card.

This data was slightly lower compared to [Tianlong].

After all, the purchase rate for [Tianlong] monthly cards was as high as 60%, and weekly cards were as high as 75%.

But the player base for [Extreme Survival] was huge.

4.5 million people.

40% purchased monthly cards, that's 1.8 million people.

A monthly card costs 10 yuan, so the revenue is 18 million.

60% purchased weekly cards, that's 2.7 million people.

A weekly card costs 2 yuan, so that's 5.4 million a week. With four weeks in a month, the total monthly revenue is 21.6 million.

80% purchased daily cards, that's 3.6 million people.

A daily card costs 0.1 yuan, so the total monthly revenue is 10.8 million.

Calculating it this way, the total monthly revenue for [Extreme Survival] was 50 million, which was far higher than the revenue of [Tianlong].

Looking at the final total revenue, Chen Mo couldn't help but get a headache.

Currently, the number of players for [Extreme Survival] was still growing, which indicated that the monthly revenue of over 50 million was not the limit for [Extreme Survival].

And it was very difficult to determine where the final limit for [Extreme Survival] would be.

However, before [Extreme Survival] came out, the most popular shooting game was [Gun God], which had 9 million players.

Now, the popularity of [Extreme Survival] had already surpassed [Gun God].

Therefore, it was only a matter of time before the player count for [Extreme Survival] grew to 9 million.

9 million is exactly double the current player count, which means that once the player count for [Extreme Survival] grows to 9 million, the monthly revenue for [Extreme Survival] will break 100 million.

Thinking of this, Chen Mo felt that his worst decision was acquiring Snowy Sky Games.

If it weren't for this Snowy Sky Games, he didn't know how many times he would have successfully settled.

And he realized that the biggest sneak wasn't Wei Yan, nor was it Li Shen, and definitely not Wu Yu, but Fang Chang, who had been hiding all along.

This [Extreme Survival] from Fang Chang had instantly increased the difficulty of fully converting his System Funds by several times over.

Chen Mo shook his head helplessly; there was no regret medicine in this world. Now, all he could do was spend as much of the System Funds as possible.

This settlement cycle was 8 months long, so there was plenty of time to find ways to lose and spend money.

Excluding the charity funds, he needed to spend 24 million of the current System Funds.

[Tianlong]'s monthly revenue was over 30 million, and [Extreme Survival]'s revenue was over 50 million.

That meant the total System Funds for February would be over 100 million.

And this wasn't even the exact revenue, as the player counts for both [Tianlong] and [Extreme Survival] were still growing.

Spending money—he had to find more ways to spend money.

With his current companies, it was clearly impossible to spend this much System Funds.

It seems it was time to establish an investment company.

However, the holiday started tomorrow, so the investment company matter could be handled when he returned. During this break, he could take the time to look for new loss-making industries.

Now that he had enough funds, the Garment factory could continue to expand. He could ask Li Maode later to see if there were any companies moving out.

If there were, he could rent them all out.

For now, the Garment factory was the most reliable loss-making industry he had on hand.

He didn't even know how much money he had invested in the Garment factory by now. Although there had been some revenue, the total investment amount was definitely greater than the revenue.

Of course, if it hadn't been for the 60+ agents brought in by Luo Yuan, the losses would have been even greater.

But all the employees who could join the Garment factory had already joined; Luo Yuan couldn't replicate this kind of case a second time.
