Super Tycoon

"Mr. Zhang, there is a man from the United States named Martin. He wants to meet with the person in charge of our company, saying that he has a big business involving tens of millions to discuss."

"Okay, I see. I will tell Mr. Zhang about this, and make an appointment with Martin to meet at the company at nine o'clock tomorrow morning."

While packing up her son's clothes, Yang Sulan couldn't help complaining: "You've only been back for a few days, and there are only so many things to do in the company? Your father is on a business trip, and you have to leave too. I'm the only one left at home."

"Mom, do you want to go to Bingcheng? If you want to work, let my dad find someone, and you can easily transfer to Bingcheng. If you don't want to go to work, you can rest at home. Anyway, your money is definitely spent in your way." There are endless flowers."

"What ice city are you going to? How many people do I know in the ice city? What's wrong with the county town? Aren't you born in the county town? Be careful on the road, and call home when you arrive."

"Well, you decide for yourself. My dad will only be busy for a year or two. When I go to college, the company will be completely on the right track, and he will be much more relaxed then."

When he goes to university, he will dig talents and come back. At that time, his father only needs to be in charge of the company, and other things can be left to others.

"You have to study hard when you go to university. Don't think that you just know more now. If you don't study, you will definitely regress. 35xs"

"Mom, I know. Well, you go to play mahjong, I'm leaving, bye."

The next morning, Zhang Yang came to the company. When everyone saw him appear, they hurriedly greeted him. The employees of these companies all know that whether it is a salary increase or dismissal in the company, Mr. Zhang's words are more effective than Mr. Zhang's words.

"Mr. Zhang, that Martin has come and is drinking tea in the reception room."

Zhang Yang glanced at his watch, it was only half past eight, and the other party was very anxious.

Entering the reception room, a blond white man stood up and spoke bluntly: "Hello, I'm Martin, are you Mr. Zhang?"

"I am the current person in charge of the company, you can call me Zhang." Zhang Yang said in English.

"It's great that you understand English." Martin breathed a sigh of relief. He said that he was really tired. But I came to Bingcheng in a hurry and didn't have time to hire an interpreter.

"Zhang, I am the representative of Atari in China. On behalf of the company, I would like to develop in-depth cooperation with your company. Our company has more than 200 best-selling video games around the world, including some handheld games and arcade games. The strength is also top-notch in the world.”

Atari, Zhang Yang certainly knows that the once American game giant has only gone from bad to worse in the past two years. In his previous life, he filed for bankruptcy a few years after the present, and then the brand and assets continued to change hands. Until his rebirth, he was almost forgotten.

This company is most famous for not paying enough attention to the backbone of the company. Many people quit, and some founded other companies, which developed better than Atari.

Moreover, this company has a very poor vision for the development of game consoles, and always makes mistakes in its judgment on the market. Zhang Yang is not willing to cooperate with such a company.

But he still wanted to hear what the other party was going to do. If it is cooperation in game development, such as obtaining the game authorization from Atari, it will be very cost-effective for Zhiduoxing. They can give a cassette when selling game consoles, which will definitely greatly improve Game console sales.

"I also know something about your company, I know your company's past glory, but what is the purpose of your visit this time, Martin?" Zhang Yang thinks it is better to cut directly to the topic.

"Zhang, our company has plans to cooperate with your company. We are willing to exchange 5 million US dollars for 51% of your company's shares. At the same time, the management rights can also be handed over to you. We will transfer Atari's original The games, etc., can be converted into a version compatible with Zhiduoxing game consoles,

Jointly develop the Chinese market, and are also willing to help Zhiduoxing game consoles enter the American market. "

This sounds good, exchanging markets with each other, but Zhang Yang knows that this is not reliable at all. Because the 8-bit machine is almost an obsolete product in the foreign market. In the previous life, Atari's 8-bit machine will be discontinued next year. After all, they have been selling it for 13 years.

Even if the price of Zhiduoxing game consoles is cheap, they can’t sell much, and taxation and other factors must be considered, and the profit is lower. In this market exchange, Zhiduoxing is losing money, and Zhiduoxing is the leader in the mainland.

Five million U.S. dollars in exchange for 51% of the equity, this price seems to be equivalent for the time being, but it ignores the brand value of Zhiduoxing.

What's more, Zhang Yang already has a comprehensive plan for the next step of the development of Zhiduoxing, so how can he let others control it? Not to mention the declining Atari, even Nintendo, which is in full swing.

"Martin, there is no need to talk about this point of becoming a shareholder of Zhiduoxing. Other companies can offer better conditions than you. However, I am somewhat interested in Atari's game copyright. If Atari is willing to authorize us Adaptation, it can run on our Zhiduoxing, I would like to talk about it."

"Impossible!" Martin flatly refused.

"Pure game licensing is not in our Atari's interest. Only when Zhiduoxing is invested by our Atari can we consider the game copyright as part of the investment. I can lower the conditions by 50%, it can't be lower gone."

Zhang Yang crossed his legs: "Martin, Atari today is no longer the glory of ten years ago, you still have the afterglow of the sunset. We are different, we are the rising sun. Our company is not short of money , why sell shares to you?"

"And selling us the copyright of the game will allow Atari to get a sum of money to ease the predicament. Isn't that good? Five million dollars, I'm afraid it will be difficult for Atari to get it out at this time, right?"

Martin's face changed abruptly. He didn't expect that a mainlander would know so much about Atari's situation. It seems that Zhi Duoxing has great ambitions and is not satisfied with the Chinese mainland market. This is a plan to expand outward!

"Zhang, this is the bottom line set by the company. Either let us become a shareholder, and we use the game copyright as the price, or we don't have to talk about it. Your company does not have game copyright, so the sales of game consoles are not high. You should also be able to see this. arrive."

"I'm sorry, we have already developed several games, and they will be released to the market soon. And the fundamental reason for the low sales is that the market is not prosperous enough. The combined sales of several of your international game giants can't match One-third of our wisdom stars."

"Since Mr. Martin insists on the bottom line, I can only say goodbye with regret. I hope we will have the opportunity to cooperate again in the future."

Zhang Yangxin said that this day may not be too far away. When Atari is about to go bankrupt, he can buy it. Among other things, those games are very valuable!
