Chapter 484: Man’s poison, my wine

"Oh, Chen Dong, in fact, you don't need to belittle yourself. Read on your phone."

When Yang Huan saw Chen Dong's expression of shame, he knew what was going on.

After all, every otaku regards his dignity more than anything else.

The same is true for Chen Dong!

"We are sitting on so many and huge resources, and you just sit at home and think about it. We are only half a year ahead of you. You should be proud of this!"

Yang Huan's words are not exaggerated at all.

Given the status and influence of the WeChat company on the Internet today, the news channels and the resources it possesses, it is completely beyond the imagination of an ordinary person, nor is it comparable to that of an ordinary person.

It was quite difficult for Chen Dong to do this with his own power.

"Yeah, Chen Dong, Brother Huan is right. Don't belittle yourself."

Zhuang Zicheng also persuaded him, and he also felt that this guy was a talent.

The two leaders spoke, and everyone else followed suit to persuade them.

Chen Dong also knows well that in this society, no matter how good a person is, no matter how outstanding, it is impossible to challenge a large company, especially a large consortium like WeChat that has so many resources.

However, he was still a little ashamed in his heart.

I knew it, I shouldn't have been so boastful just now.

At the very least, we should be a little humble!

"Master Huan, I want to know, who first proposed this plan six months ago?"

Chen Dong still has the character of a gambler. If you lose, you have to know who you lose.

When everyone heard it, they all looked at Yang Huan together.

Chen Dong was even more admired in his heart.

It turned out to be Master Huan himself!

"Eh, I'm actually a layman, but I'm more prone to be prepared for danger, so I put forward some ideas. It is all the people present who have brainstormed and have a detailed plan, so it doesn't matter to me!"

But that's what I said, but everyone still looked admired.

If there was no such a proposal from Young Master Huan, no one knew when they would have to wait to notice this link.

It may be said by Chen Dong.

"Master Huan, can you reveal specific information? For example, which company do you plan to acquire?"

When it comes to this, Chen Dong is full of fanaticism.

Yang Huan smiled slightly, "What do you think?"

There was something called YY on Chen Dong's face, and he smiled.

"Of course it is Microsoft..."

The crowd roared with laughter.

Acquiring Microsoft, are you kidding me?

The acquisition by Microsoft is almost the same!

Chen Dong also realized the problem, "I mean, buy Microsoft's game console business!"

Everyone still laughs, everyone knows that Microsoft will not give up this market.

That is one of Microsoft's most important strategic businesses!

"Or Sony's mainframe business, and Nintendo." Chen Dong suggested.

If this is to be able to acquire one of them, it will make domestic game enthusiasts a big fanaticism.

Yang Huan smiled and shook his head silently.

On the contrary, Zhuang Zicheng smiled and asked, "Haven't you heard the news that Vivendi is in debt?"

When Chen Dong heard this, his eyes lit up, "Yes, there were reports that domestic Internet companies wanted to buy..."

"Oh my God!" Chen Dong was immediately shocked, "Are you buying Activision Blizzard?"

This guy was stunned by the name!

Activision Blizzard!

That's Activision Blizzard!

You know, in the eyes of game lovers all over the world, Blizzard is the supreme existence.

Diablo, StarCraft, Warcraft, World of Warcraft...

This game is a super classic and excellent work, which directly pushed Blizzard to the altar!

WeChat’s palace status in the field of mobile games is also known as Blizzard in the field of mobile games, which shows how lofty Blizzard’s status is in the minds of gamers.

"Vivendi has a debt of US$15.5 billion, and its stock price has fallen by more than 20%. It is necessary to sell high-quality assets Activision Blizzard to alleviate the huge debt pressure, and their current price tag for Activision Blizzard has changed from The previous US$8.2 billion has been adjusted to around US$7 billion, which is within our acceptance range."

"The only troublesome thing is that Vivendi's condition is a cash purchase!"

Zhuang Zicheng was also rather embarrassed.

This negotiation can be regarded as protracted. From the end of June, Vivendi heard the news, and the WeChat company began to contact Vivendi. The two parties hit it off, but at first there was a stalemate in the purchase price, and then they were unable to acquire cash. Reach a consensus.

To be honest, how many companies in the world can raise so much cash in a short period of time?

Besides, Activision Blizzard is respected in the game industry, but the problem is also prominent.

That is, Blizzard's golden signature is based on the skipped ticket.

In terms of game development speed, Blizzard is notoriously slow, which leads to outstanding cost pressures.

If you work slowly and do meticulous work, that's okay. If you fail, wouldn't all the investment go to waste?

Blizzard in the game world and Wang Jiawei in the film festival are all masters who love and hate!

In addition, in recent years, with the rapid development of mobile games, even if Blizzard has launched StarCraft II and Diablo III in the past two years, coupled with the old and strong World of Warcraft, the overall revenue of Activision Blizzard is still showing a downward trend.

This has discouraged game makers including Microsoft and Sony.

A $7-8 billion acquisition is too risky!

In the end, WeChat had almost no other competitors, so it negotiated with Vivendi slowly and then negotiated the price.

From the perspective of the gaming business alone, the $7 billion acquisition of Activision Blizzard is certainly a risky thing.

But if you look at it from another angle, this transaction can fill the biggest weakness of WeChat.

That's the development of console games!

According to WeChat's plan, after WeChat Games acquired Activision Blizzard, it will begin to increase its efforts to develop new games on the virtual reality technology platform, including Blizzard's new games.

And Activision Blizzard has too many premium copyrights.

For example, World of Warcraft, StarCraft, Call of Duty, etc., these are all high-quality resources that can be adapted into movies.

The key is to see how the company works!

The Yang Group is now sitting on the world's largest movie theater line. As long as the quality of the movies produced is of good quality, are you afraid that you can't make money?

As the so-called human poison, it may become my wine!

In this way, the acquisition of Activision Blizzard is not only risky, but may become another beautiful and value-for-money acquisition by Yang Huan!

It's great for rich people!

For a rich person like Young Master Huan, that's even better!

Chen Dong didn't think so far and wide as Yang Huan, he focused more on the game field.

So he soon realized a problem.

"Master Huan, although Activision Blizzard has the world's best game production and publishing capabilities, they do not meet the business we just proposed to replace computers and occupy the center of home entertainment!"

Does Master Huan want to re-development?

That's too slow, right?

When Activision Blizzard makes it, the day lily will be cold!

After Yang Huan listened, he was still silent.

Zhuang Zicheng glanced at his brother-in-law. He and Yang Huan were good buddies behind him, and he had no scruples, but he always regarded himself as a relationship between superiors and superiors.

"Chen Dong, have you heard of Villefort Company?"

"Villefort?" Chen Dong was shocked again when he heard it, and he was shocked again.

He swears that in his life from childhood to adulthood, has never been scared so many times, scared so miserably like today.

Villefort, this is another hall-level company in the game industry. The most famous games are Half-Life and Counter-Strike!

Oh, yes, there are more towers!

But soon, Chen Dong's mind flashed, and he realized that he had grasped the most important thread.

Villefort’s most important business now is not games, but their gaming platform Steam. This platform now has as many as 4.5 million unique users every day, and at least 2.5 million online users, occupying the global game market. Seventy-five percent, the potential value is quite amazing.

First, the acquisition of Activision Blizzard, followed by the Villefort company, this time the entire strategic layout is clearly presented in front of Chen Dong, which makes the Chinese technical nerd feel an unprecedented inexplicable excitement.

He felt that this was an excellent opportunity!

Start the layout half a year in advance, strengthen its own strength through continuous acquisitions, as long as the integration is good, then the entire ecosystem of virtual reality technology will take shape.

At that time, even if companies such as Microsoft and Sony have launched their own virtual reality technologies, it will be difficult to shake the position of WeChat.

"Master Huan, the market value of this Villefort company is probably not cheap, at least about one billion US dollars, plus Activision Blizzard, how do you..."

Chen Dong couldn't keep asking this question halfway through.

Because he saw Young Master Huan, who was smiling, and Zhuang Zicheng, who also looked very unpredictable on the other side.

Yes, I am a master of game development and software technology, but in terms of capital operation, I am a complete layman, even worse than a layman.

But who is Master Huan?

There is a well-known investment expert Mr. Zhao Yuanfang under his hand, and WeChat and the Yang Group also have outstanding capital operation teams. These people must have a way to help Shaoye Huan achieve his goals. Otherwise, how dare Shaoye Huan propose?

Thinking of this, Chen Dong let go of his heart.

The more Yang Huan looked, the more he felt that this guy was a smart person, but he might have lived too long and lacked the skills to communicate with the outside world.

But he is definitely a smart man, and he is a very smart kind!

"Chen Dong!" Yang Huan said with a smile, "Are you interested in working at WeChat Research Institute?"

Chen Dong received an invitation from Zhuang Zicheng last night, and he was already impressed.

At this time, Young Master Huan personally invited him, he hardly hesitated, and nodded and agreed.

Yang Huan was in a pretty good mood when he saw his promise.

"With your joining, I will have more confidence in the future!"

Chen Dong was also grateful to the boss for his importance and actively offered advice.

Not to mention, although this kid doesn't leave home, he knows the domestic game circle well, and he is familiar with companies of all sizes, and he has proposed several virtual reality helmet promotion plans, which have been affirmed by everyone present.

This undoubtedly further deepened Yang Huan and Zhuang Zicheng's recognition of Chen Dong.

In the next few days, Yang Huan stayed in China and dedicated himself to Pengcheng.

With the success of the exhibition, the promotion of major media all over the world, and the high evaluation of virtual reality helmets by the game industry, the sales of the developer version of virtual reality helmets are rising.

After surpassing 10,000 orders in less than twenty-four hours, it quickly exceeded 20,000 orders on the fourth day ~ www.wuxiaspot.com ~ and on the fifteenth day, it successfully exceeded 30,000 orders.

Since then, many orders have been delivered one after another every day.

The WeChat Research Institute promised to start construction immediately, and strive to officially launch the first-generation developer version on the market in two months.

This immediately sparked a heated discussion in the industry, and countless people were full of expectations.

In the eyes of Chinese people, this is undoubtedly a strong counterattack made in China.

I used to think that the United States and Europe are very high-tech in terms of high-tech, but this time, we also have high-tech companies in China leading the world. This is shocking!

That's awesome!

WeChat's influence in China has also been further improved.

When Yang Huan had booked the plane ticket and planned to return to Europe, he suddenly received a call from Long Hai's house. ()
