Rebirth: Japanese investor

  Chapter 314 Amateur Actor

   The first dish was delivered to Kishimoto Masayoshi and Fukada Kyoko by the waiters respectively. What he eats is not important to him.

  The most important thing is to be able to say at the climax tonight that you can't accompany the other party to watch the grand fireworks show in the port area.

  Kishimoto Masayoshi once practiced himself in front of the mirror in order to show his sincerity. It is really challenging for an amateur actor to act in front of professional actors.

   "Does the food here suit your taste?" Masayoshi Kishimoto asked casually.

   Fukada Kyoko showed her charming signature smile and said, "Very good!"

   "That's good." Kishimoto Masayoshi was afraid that if she didn't like it, it would lead to a sharp decrease in the subsequent effects.

   "Do you have any plans for the New Year's holiday?" Kyoko Fukada asked purposefully.

   When Masayoshi Kishimoto was asked by her, he naturally thought that next year would be 2000. Not only was there the computer millennium bug, but it was also the year that the dot-com bubble started to burst.

   Many of their investments have bet on this industry. However, he did not have any excessive worries, after all, they are all first-class high-quality companies.

  Not only that, they have all started to get on the right track and entered the stage where their main business is profitable. The market value of Yahoo's stock alone is as high as $8.4 billion. The three major game companies in South Korea need not say much.

   ActozSoft Co., Ltd.'s "Legend" online game has officially launched in Korea. Although the response was mediocre, in the near future, that is, in September 2001, it will officially land in the Chinese mainland market, thus detonating a phenomenal event, and it will still not make Kishimoto less money.

   In 1999, the same year, "Stone Age" also began its public beta in Japan. It also received a mediocre response. As a result, Kishimoto took the opportunity to acquire shares of the development company and publisher JSS at a low price.

  After he joined the JSS company, he proactively and boldly proposed the strategic concept of going out at the high-level meeting, with the intention of making "Stone Age" not limited to the domestic market of Japan.

   His own proposal was immediately opposed by the elders of the JSS company. In their opinion, for an online game that is not even popular in Japan, going out is tantamount to courting death.

   However, no matter how much they insist on opposing it, they can't hold back the large shares in Masayoshi Kishimoto's hands. After all, not everyone speaks with one vote, but those with more shares speak.

   Kishimoto Masayoshi is not stupid, and he can't irritate them too much. If they come to a collective resignation, they will not let themselves be empty.

   In order to ease the internal conflicts between them, and to show that he was not going his own way, as if he had made concessions, he chose Taiwan as a test field for overseas distribution.

  If it works, they will enter the Chinese mainland market in one go. The elders of the JSS company completely accepted his plan.

   They mistakenly believe that Kishimoto has made certain concessions and compromises, so it is unreasonable for them to insist on it again and again. In any case, the other party is the largest shareholder of the company.

   The bursting of the Internet bubble is both a danger and an opportunity. The dangerous side is that it has indeed caused many Internet companies to go bankrupt in batches. The wealth myth that once made the Internet is beginning to burst.

   In this brutal survival of the fittest, Masayoshi Kishimoto also saw a golden opportunity. Otherwise, I wouldn't be able to scan a lot of goods at a low price, and I wouldn't be able to become the leader of Internet companies in mainland China in the future.

  In the year of 2000, Tencent entered the most difficult period. When facing financial difficulties, it almost sold the ICQ software it developed to the Shenzhen Telecom Data Bureau at a price of 600,000 yuan, but it failed due to price reasons.

   In other words, what it lacks most is money, and it can even sell its main business ICQ software for a mere 600,000 soft sister coins. As for the Shenzhen Telecom Data Bureau, they feel that Tencent's ICQ software is not worth 600,000 soft sister coins.

After the opportunity of    history has passed by, there will be no more. Masayoshi Kishimoto saw this opportunity and had to "take advantage of the danger" to get Tencent's shares justifiably.

   He neither buys it outright, nor does it absolutely control it. Without Xiao Ma and others, what he bought himself would be a shell company. His first priority was to keep them.

   Therefore, when the time comes, you have to grasp a degree in negotiation, which can satisfy both yourself and them, and are willing to continue to stay and work.

   At the beginning of the new year, I have to go to Hangzhou to chat with Dad Ma in person. After all, 20 million US dollars has been prepared for the other party early.

   Masayoshi Kishimoto has been involved in Internet and telecommunications investment since 1997 in order to play this big game. He successively started to implement Yahoo, NetEase, Tencent, Alibaba, Focus Media, Shanda Network, etc. step by step.

   "I don't even want to go there, so I just stay at home and play the online game "Paradise". Do you play too?" Masayoshi Kishimoto asked for an excuse.

   "I didn't expect you to play the online game "Paradise"?" Kyoko Fukada said in surprise.

   "This company was my initial investment, and it was also when we met in the elevator that you spilled my juice drink." Kishimoto Masayoshi picked up a memory from the past.

   "It seems that the online game "Paradise" allowed us to get to know each other." Kyoko Fukada smiled.

   "Isn't it? I remember very clearly that I just signed the investment agreement with President Kim Zechen of NCSoft in South Korea in the room where he was staying." Masayoshi Kishimoto said calmly.

   "Then you should make a lot of money. I'm one of these players!" Fukada Kyoko not only has free time to play it, but also many people around her.

   "Thank you for your support." Masayoshi Kishimoto has already shared a lot of dividends from "Paradise". This first year is 4 billion yen.

   It is a golden chicken that lays golden eggs. In the next 20 years, or even longer, this big IP will bring itself a steady stream of profits every year.

   "I won't go there during the New Year's holiday, let's play online games together!" Kyoko Fukada said with a sweet smile.

   Kishimoto Masayoshi felt that the hole he dug had buried himself once again. Now he can't go back and say no: "Okay!"

   "At that time, come to my house! I happen to have two computers in my house. This way, we can also communicate more easily." Fukada Kyoko said very proactively.

   Kishimoto Masayoshi was trying to maintain her good mood, but it also started to waver in her heart. Faced with a beautiful woman, a star, or a Japanese star he liked in his previous life, how could he bear to refuse?

   "Okay." Kishimoto Masayoshi thought about it for a while, and then decided to do it.

   Kyoko Fukada is in a very good mood. She felt that she was a big step closer to the throne of the chaebol lady. In her mind, no star of any kind is comfortable being a chaebol lady.

   Besides, he is not married to an old man. I also have feelings for Kishimoto Justice. The most important thing is that he is young and rich, and the future will be brighter. She is willing to be the woman behind a successful man.
