Would you please introduce the basic situation and development goals under the "Liangshan Liangshan Plan"? Will there be many "small unicorn"? Xing Shanhu: At present, domestic online games products still win by product quality, and the product quality depends on the R & D team. However, there are many online games development teams in China that are concentrated in the private sector and have not joined such companies as Shanda and Giant. R & D teams often lack experience, not money, while Kirin Games is a company that has R & D genes. Four of our five partners engage in R & D and are capable of intelligence output. The launch of "Liangshan Project" is an innovative step in the strategic layout of R & D and operation of multi-product in Kirin game. On the one hand, based on the unicorn game product matrix, it provides a first-class leading incubation mechanism for start-up team through major projects including Strong capital investment, advanced research and development support, deep resource platform, rich creative experience and long-term space for development; the other hand, the introduction of elite R & D personnel to participate in high-quality projects "Zhuchaoyinfeng, 广纳 Magi" to team Unit, project dividend way to R & D team rich return.

Tencent Technology: R & D cycle in the small team has many difficulties, including the funding chain, technical problems, etc., Kirin game can provide help for small and medium teams? In addition, Shanda "18 Fund" and the giant "Win the Giant" has been in operation for two years, Kirin game "Shuibo Liangshan Project" is a project-based recruitment team, and the previous two are different, what are the advantages? Xing Shanhu: As I said before, there are 4 of the 5 partners in the Kirin game that are doing R & D. You think 80% of the partners in a company tend to do research and development, which is rare in China's online game companies , Which is also the advantage of unicorn game, we join the online games team is more from the perspective of research and development to give support. Tencent Technology: "Shuibo Liangshan plan" once formed, do you think how many projects can be hatched a year? Will the annual volume of new products put on the market exceed the carrying capacity of Kirin's existing operating platforms and marketing channels? Xing Shanhu: There is no ceiling for hatchery projects, and we certainly hope that the better the better. Of course, we are beyond the unicorn existing products for the new product. From the current point of view, Kirin has 150 customer service team, while operating two games. The future of Kirin also has 12 R & D team, operating four different products will not be a problem. Tencent Technology: Kirin embarked on a multi-product development stage of the game, with its risk-let small and medium teams to do research and development projects, why not choose a more stable proxy mode? Kirin game in the future whether adhere to research and transportation integration? Xing Shanhu: To be honest, we hope to spend more time on research and development. Now "Dragon Valley" and other games suddenly rushed to the 60.7 million number, but in many cases, the game is often from overseas is often short-lived. From the unicorn game point of view, we do not seek great success, just to steady development, wholeheartedly engaged in research and development. Now more and more domestic companies engaged in research and development, which is China's online games beyond Japan and South Korea an important reason for online games.
