【Baokai Game Company Introduction】

It is a game company that mainly focuses on puzzle and casual games in Seattle in 2000 by college dropout John Vitch, Brian Fitt, and former Apple computer engineer Jensen Kaboca.

When Baokai Game Company was first established, it could only be described as "miserable and miserable".

In the entire company, except for the three of them, there is no other employee. Moreover, the three of them are very pure computer game engineers. They have no plans at all. They just eat and play games every day...

They are also developing a game based on arc operations.

But unfortunately, no buyer is willing to spend money to buy their game copyright. So they can only save money and eat instant noodles for more than 5 months.

"Huh~"

"It's really miserable!"

"This is in America. If it is in the Great Heaven, as a parent of a family, you will be beaten to death or not. You will be just a mess!"

Looking at the information in his mind, Zhu Ke couldn't help but sigh.

Zhuke won't mention this life for the time being. Even when he was the most poor in his previous life, he lived a better life than the three of them.

Even Iron Man can’t stand it even if I have eaten instant noodles for more than 5 months!

For this reason, the three founders decided to take a different approach!

They worked day and night to finally create a pg-13 level (translator's note: users under 13 years old need parents to provide certain reminders and guidance on the content). Well, it is the kind of "bad" game where the other party (computer character) takes off a piece of clothing.

They even contacted several pornographic websites and wanted to sell the copyright of the game.

However, no website is interested.

"Wow, this brother three is really unstable. When you are short of money, you can even do such things."

Zhu Ke sneered, then thought: "If I'm so short of money, maybe they don't have a bottom line yet, tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk t

Who would have thought...

Who would have thought that the famous company that made the "Plant vs. Zombies" game was actually the one who made "bad" games, well, it was still the kind that didn't make any money.

In 2001, the Baokai Game Company, which was formed by them, released a new game called "Gem Maze", which is a puzzle and casual elimination game.

"Oh, Gem Maze Game?"

"A game similar to a kind of elimination?"

"Well, it's really an elimination game."

This game, Baokai Game Company signed a cooperation agreement with Microsoft, and once released on the msn platform, it was very popular.

This game has more than 60,000 active users per day, and the number of online users at the peak was as high as 150,000.

Baokai Game Company finally makes money!

However... the big part of the revenue of this game has been entered into the pocket of the platform MSN!

The income to Baokai Game Company is almost negligible, and at most it is only US$1,500 per month.

In the early 21st century, there were so many small workshops and game companies like Baokai in the United States, and there were countless.

But this is how Baokai Game Company, which rose from adversity, grew stronger in just a few years.

In 2004, its market valuation was as high as US$60 million;

In 2007, its market valuation further rose to US$120 million;

The most important thing is that in 2009, Baokai Games released the "Plant vs. Zombies" series of games, which became popular all over the world.

Since then, not to mention the overall value of Baokai Games, the game "Plant vs. Zombies" alone has been worth more than 1 billion US dollars.

"A magical game company!" The Associated Press commented.

After browsing the information in his mind, Zhu Ke couldn't help but be amazed: "It's really an unusual experience to succeed!"

Yes, who dares to underestimate Bao Kai’s game company?

"Plant vs. Zombies" game, who doesn't know?!

"What else is there to say, of course you should take it down."

In fact, Zhuke's idea of ​​a game company has definitely not been a day or two, and he has been coveting for a long time.

Who makes game companies make money?!

......

Somewhere in Seattle.

John Vitch, who had just resigned from a local game company in Seattle, came to Brian Fitt's home with a resentful look on his face, and sat on the sofa.

"What's there? Man." Brian Fitt, who was sitting in front of the computer, cared.

John Vicci pondered for more than ten seconds, looked up and asked, "Man, do you dare to imagine it? Just now, I received my mother's wedding invitation?"

Mom’s wedding invitation?

"hehe."

Brian Fitt sneered, "I said man, I remember this is your mom's third marriage."

"Wrong, very wrong!"

Hearing this, John Vic, who covered his face, immediately jumped up from the sofa and shouted: "Including this time, I already have 7 stepfathers. Do you dare to imagine it?!"

Brian Fitt: "…..."

He couldn't speak anymore.

Anyone with 7 stepfathers will be very impressed!

John Vicci said again: "I forgot to tell you that in fact I have two stepmothers."

At this moment, even the stunned Brian Fitt couldn't help laughing out loud, it was so funny~.

"Okay, let's not mention these."

After a long time, Brian Fitt said seriously: "You have resigned from Vred Games for a month. What are you going to do in the future? Should you continue to find a job or create a game company. Of course, no matter what you do, I will support you."

"Thanks."

At this moment, John Vicci, who had always been uncontrollable, was only very moved.

Being friends is really rare in the world to be a friend.

Three years ago, John and Brian were both college students at Purdue University. Brian Fitt was also a genius in the computer department of Purdue University, and they were ranked first for two consecutive years. However, when John proposed to drop out of school and create a game, Brian, a friend and genius in the computer department, agreed without any hesitation.

Let me ask, how many people can do anything for their friends like Brian Fitt?

Too few!

Too rare!

"I plan to create a game company, our own game company!" John Vitch said firmly.

"Do you still have money now?" said Brian Fitt.

This is like pouring a pot of cold water.

John spread his hands, his face full of bitterness, "I have no money!"

Upon hearing this, Brian slapped his forehead.

A penny stumps a hero, and nothing you say is nonsense.

Once upon a time, John and Brian were also generous.

They first dropped out of Purdue University and started a chess and card game. Not long after they dropped out of school, they made $45,000, and later sold the game copyright and bought $100,000 at the same time.

At that time, John was only 19 years old.

Such a speed of money is no less than the surprise of winning lottery tickets in later generations!

However, in just two months, the two of them spent all their money and quickly squandered the 100,000 US dollars.

I don’t have money now, I deserve it!

If you want to start a game company, there is no way without money!

For a moment, John and Brian were worried.

"Hahaha!!!"

At this moment, former Apple computer engineer Jason Kaboca, who was a friend of the two, rushed in with an excited look on his face.

"We're here, guys!"

"Just just now, I received a call, he was the assistant of Mr. Juke Wald. The famous Jin Shuguang Entertainment Group will form a game company and invite us to join and become the chief designer."

Jansen Kaboka's voice fell.

John and Brian were stunned.

Brian was shocked: "Are you sure it's Mr. Juke Wald's company, not a liar?"

Jansen Kaboca immediately retorted: "Man, don't forget that I used to be a computer engineer at Apple, and I've met Mr. Juke Wald."
