After dinner, the two returned to their respective rooms. When Celine was done taking a shower, Miss Stone reminded her that the assessment team had completed their report.
Celine immediately sat down in front of her laptop and began reading the report that had just been written.
The team from Colossal Investments always produced detailed, professional reports which an ordinary person might not be able to understand. However, Celine merely needed to skim her eyes through the report to capture the key information.
Sena’s main role was in acting as a web portal. It was currently the largest portal within Somerland, and in terms of web traffic, it was ranked first in Somerland, third in Terra, and sixth globally.
Every day, tens of millions of people used the portal to read the news and search for the information they were interested in.
The evaluation showed it had large traffic, a strong base, and a bright future. However, the problem was it was difficult to liquidate and make a profit from it, which was why it was making losses now.
Its secondary role was in online games.
United Legends had already completely taken over the gaming community within the country.
No matter if you were in the gaming industry, the internet industry, or not in either, everyone was surprised at the popularity United Legends had gained.
Within a month of the opening of servers, it had reached a peak of 2.4 million users simultaneously with an average of 2.1 million users online at any one time.
These statistics were what other online games could only dream about.
The steady popularity of the game had caused some who were observing from a distance to become jealous.
According to official announcements regarding payment details that had been put out by United Legends, the game would launch a charging system using point cards the week after the first wave of beta testing was over.
Players would begin being charged 50 cents an hour for every player that surpassed level seven.
If calculations were made based on the assumption a player would be online for four hours a day and that there were two million players in total who had surpassed level seven, then United Legends would bring Sena four million dollars worth of earnings by simply using the points cards charging system!
As for the costs?
The net profit would be 3.58 million dollars after deducting costs such as manpower and server bandwidth.
These were the most professional statistics provided by the assessment team.
Earning 3.58 million dollars a day was a shockingly huge amount in the year 2001.
Even Celine, who had been exposed to such things before, was also shocked at how much money one could make off online games.
As United Legends continued gaining popularity, new servers would gradually be opened to the public as well. This number could only increase and not decrease within the next two years.
Unless the developers fell ill or got themselves into a mess that would ruin the game.
However, based on Celine’s understanding of Jasper, there was no way such accidents would happen.
It was not rare for a company to earn 3.58 million dollars a day. At least, Celine knew of several large corporations that could do so.
However, the problem was that this was an internet company. While countless internet companies across the world fretted over how they could cut their losses, Jasper was leading Sena to a point where they could make several million dollars a day.
That was great news to Sena when they were going to be listed publicly.
At the very end of the report, a grade of S+ had been given.
According to Colossal Investment’s rubrics, this was only given to companies that had the most potential to expand and grow even further in the future.
Celine had worked in Colossal Investments for a long time, but this was the first time she had ever seen the S+ grade awarded.
Miss Stone, who was beside Celine, also saw the report she was reading. She stared at the contents in shock and muttered to herself, “These statistics are horrifying. Could there have been a mistake?”
