Late at night, after more than ten hours of long-distance flight, Yang Huan's plane finally landed at London's Heathrow Airport with a harsh friction sound.
For more exciting novels, please visit "Master Huan, Master Huan, Master Huan" Long Wu gently called Yang Huan, but the latter stared blankly out of the window, motionless.
The first-class passengers were all preparing to get off the plane.
After talking to Zhang Ning, he hadn't read news online for several days, so he watched the news for two or three hours at a stretch.
Many media in the Internet field and those focusing on mobile games have expressed pessimism about the current situation of WeChat.
It is a heavy blow to the company that a new game that has spent a lot of energy and resources on development has fallen into trouble.
In the City of London and Silicon Valley in the United States, many venture capital companies have lowered their valuations of gaming companies and WeChat by up to 40%, which has also aroused the pessimistic attitude of many media and investors.
More importantly, it severely damaged the morale of everyone in the company.
Yang Huan has been writing things in the notebook he brought with him since he boarded the plane.
After finishing writing, he stared out the window of the plane in a daze.
In fact, it was pitch black outside the window and he couldn't see anything, but he was watching without moving.
Even if the plane has landed, we still don’t know.
"Master Huan."
Long Wu gently pushed Yang Huan's shoulder.
"Ah" Yang Huan woke up with a start.
"We're here."
"Arrived in London."
Yang Huan looked around at this time and found that there was no one in the first class cabin.
He stood up, stretched his waist lazily, and yawned.
"After more than ten hours of flying, my waist is exhausted," Yang Huan said with a self-deprecating smile.
Long Wu nodded slightly, "Yes, so you'd better go back and rest quickly."
Yang Huan packed up his things without comment and got off the plane.
Before they boarded the plane, Southampton had been notified and asked them to arrange for a driver to pick them up at Heathrow Airport.
When Yang Huan walked out of the plane gate, what surprised him was that there were actually many reporters waiting here.
As soon as they saw him, they immediately swarmed up and surrounded him like sharks smelling the smell of blood.
Long Wu was so frightened that he immediately stood in front of Yang Huan.
"Mr.
Yang Huan, may I ask if you rushed back to London overnight because of Arsenal's official request for Chamberlain?"
Yang Huan was stunned, "Who said that?
I didn't receive the message?"
He did not receive any news about this.
But in the eyes of reporters, this was a cover-up.
"There is news that Southampton has some financial problems recently and may sell Chamberlain.
Is it true?"
Yang Huan denied this statement without hesitation, "There is no such thing.
Southampton will not consider selling off the stars in the team.
On the contrary, we will continue to vigorously recruit players."
"But according to the information we have received, you have had problems with your funds recently.
In particular, many venture capital institutions that originally planned to invest in your company have now lowered their valuations of you, with the highest rate reaching 50%. ” Yang Huan became depressed.
It is true that many venture capitalists wanted to invest in his company before, but he rejected them one by one.
"One thing I must clarify is that I have no idea of bringing in investment.
Several venture capital investors have expressed their intention to invest before, but I rejected them all.
We are not short of money and have no plans to bring in investment."
At this point, Yang Huan spread his hands, "Since we don't have this idea, does it have anything to do with us whether they lower their valuation of us?
The answer is, it doesn't have even a dime to do with it."

Yang Huan's explanation was indeed true, but the problem was that the media reporters simply couldn't listen.
In their view, reports that describe WeChat as being in financial crisis and extremely precarious can attract readers' attention.
After all, this company has been too dazzling in the past.
Whether it's WeChat, games or Southampton, they all stand out.
Moreover, in recent days, Aston Martin and Sunseeker Yachts have made a big appearance in China.
If we don’t take advantage of such natural hype material, will they still be British paparazzi?
"So what do you think about the failure of the new game?"
one reporter asked.
Yang Huan stopped walking towards the door of the departure hall, stopped, shook his head and said: "I must reiterate again, that is not a failure, because we have not officially released it, it is just a test for us. ” "Every gaming company has projects that fail in testing, don't they?"
The reporter nodded and said: "Yes, indeed, but since your establishment until now, every game of yours has been very successful.
Currently, you occupy two of the top ten revenue lists of Apple's official store."
"Please, we only launched two games, ok" Yang Huan was surprised.
With the success of two games, shouldn’t the third game be allowed to make mistakes?
When the reporter saw that Yang Huan was a little annoyed, he immediately laughed and said, "Mr.
Yang Huan, I can understand your mood at this moment.
Your company is in such a crisis.
You must be very unhappy, but for There is no use in getting angry."
"I'm not mad at you, I" Long Wu reminded him quietly from the side, "Master Huan, he is deliberately irritating you."
"I know."
Yang Huan is not an idiot, nor has he lost his mind.
He can't see it yet.
"Which newspaper are you from?"
"The Independent," the reporter replied with a smile.
That's the world of Arsenal fans.
“Holy shit, does The Independent even care about mobile games?”
The reporter shrugged and said with a chuckle: "Occasionally, it depends on who is right."
The meaning is self-evident, who makes you our Arsenal’s mortal enemy?
Every newspaper has its own fixed audience, and The Independent’s core readership is Arsenal fans.
So, who doesn’t want to see some bad news about our mortal enemy?
Especially for Arsenal fans, Southampton is a mortal enemy.
It is definitely a pleasure to see Southampton investors be unlucky or even declare bankruptcy.
Maybe they will set off firecrackers in London to celebrate, which will add insult to injury.
"Okay, then it's useless what I say."
Yang Huan felt that talking to these people was a complete waste of words.
No matter what you say, they will still step on you.
"So, you acquiesced."
The reporter showed a very, very annoying smile.
Yang Huan looked at the reporter calmly and smiled slightly, "Okay, Mr.
Independent, maybe we can make a bet.
I wonder if you have such courage?"
"Bet" the reporter was a little surprised, but nodded provocatively.
"Since you are so interested in us, let's bet that our next game will be a hit."
"This is impossible."
The reporter shook his head and laughed.
Not only him, but also the reporters around him thought it was impossible.

In the field of mobile games, who can dare to say that their next game will be a hit?
Even Blizzard, which specializes in classic C and online games, wouldn’t dare to boast about this Haikou.
"Yes, you think it's impossible, but I have this confidence, so I will ask you, do you dare?"
Yang Huan even turned to look at all the reporters, "If the rest of you are interested, you can make this bet with me.
I am very happy to accompany you, and the bet is very simple.
Whoever loses will publish an apology in the newspaper and admit I am a loser” At this moment, all the reporters in the airport were shocked.
"Mr.
Yang Huan, are you challenging us?"
"I don't think this is a challenge, but a defense, but you can definitely look at it that way," Yang Huan replied.
"Mr.
Yang Huan, don't you think this is a very irrational and arrogant behavior?"
Yang Huan shook his head and said: "That's better than sitting on a plane for more than ten hours in the middle of the night, only to be blocked here and bombarded by you when I returned to London."
"Mr.
Yang Huan, are you sure you must do this?"
"I'm very, very, very, very sure."
All reporters present were dumbfounded.
More than a dozen people represent more than a dozen newspapers.
Although there are no big newspapers like The Times, The Guardian, or The Sun, they are all newspapers in London, England, where consulting is developed.
There are even newspapers with low sales like The Independent.
Philippines, a newspaper with considerable influence.
If one person wants to challenge everything, this is not a lunatic.
"Okay, I agree to your challenge" "I agree too" "I promise to bet with you" Yang Huan couldn't help but nod, indicating that he accepted the challenge.
"Mr.
Yang Huan, please remember my name," the reporter from the Independent raised his press card.
"I am the chief football reporter of the football department of the Independent.
My name is Glen Moore.
I will bet with you."
"good" "But I have a question."
"Speak."
Yang Huan made a gesture of please speak.
"How to determine winning or losing, and evaluate whether a game will be popular?"
Glen Moore asked very seriously.
Yang Huan thought for a while and said, "It's very simple.
I make a game and then publish it to see how many users download it and how many people are online."
Glenmore also knew something about mobile games.
After thinking about it, he nodded and said, "Yes, but there must be a time limit."
"It takes one month to make the game, and one month to assess the results."
Glenmore felt that he had taken advantage of him, nodded and said with a smile: "What about the results?"
"Say," Yang Huan looked sure of victory.
"According to the standards of Cut the Rope and Temple Run, as long as the number of downloads exceeds five million, I will lose."
"Reasonable" Yang Huan nodded in agreement without hesitation.
Everyone was a little surprised, this must be too confident.
Is he really that confident?
"What about you?"
Yang Huan looked at the reporters provocatively.

There were more than a dozen reporters present, and no one even flinched.
"We also agreed and made a bet."
"Mr.
Yang Huan, you are not allowed to default on your debt if you lose."
"We'll take a gamble with you."
"Yes, I don't believe it.
You can really turn stone into gold and turn fire into fire."
Yang Huan was not fooled by them at all, "Okay, then we'll make it a deal."
"However, before that, we have to make an agreement first.
During this period of betting, I can't stop you from whatever you want to do, but don't bother me or bother my employees.
Otherwise, you will be considered a violation of the rules. " After saying that, Yang Huan turned around and left arrogantly.
The group of reporters left behind were all very angry.
"Too arrogant, too arrogant" "Does he really think he will win?"
"I have never seen such an arrogant and domineering person.
Who does he think he is?"
Glen Moore, on the other hand, smiled proudly as if he had seen through Yang Huan's conspiracy.
"Everyone, listen to me, let's not be fooled by that Chinese man."
"What do you mean?"
someone asked immediately.
"He made a bet with us because he actually wanted to make us angry and let us help them publicize for free.
If we were fooled and kept attacking and accusing them, wouldn't it just help them gain attention?"
"Yeah, that's so insidious, that Chinese guy" "Yes, Glenn is right, we can't be fooled."
Seeing that everyone had reached a consensus, Glenmore immediately laughed and said, "So, it's very simple.
From now on, we will ban them.
We will not report a word to them."
"Okay, let's do it" "Hey, let's not report it.
Let's see what other tricks he can come up with."
"That's right.
When he comes to our newspaper office to apologize in the newspaper, remember to raise the fee for him so that he can bleed a lot."
"I see that upstart from China is not short of money at all."
"Haha, even if we don't lack money, we have to ask him to pay more.
We are short."
"That's right, let him suffer a little and learn to behave."
"Ha ha" :
