Media: the creators of Genshin Impact will build an office for 6-8 thousand employees
miHoYo has decided to build a spacious office, the Chinese GameLook portal writes, citing documents from the Shanghai Municipal Bureau of Planning and Resource Management. On October 18, its subsidiary Shanghai miHoYo Yingtie Technology acquired a land plot for ¥1.07 billion ($137 million) with the right to use for 50 years.
It is assumed that the office area will be 98 thousand square meters. According to the portal's estimates, 6-8 thousand people will be able to accommodate in such a building, assuming that 10-15 square meters will be needed for each person.
It is worth noting that, according to the information on the miHoYo website, there are now "only" 5 thousand employees in the entire company. Many of them work in offices outside China: in Singapore, South Korea, Japan, the USA and Canada.
It is planned to start the construction of the office in the next year, and to finish it no later than in five years.
