PS: Suddenly there was a violent wind on my side, thunder and rain, and I uploaded it quickly, otherwise the power would go out...

Henry shook his head, "I have received news that ISO International Organization for Standardization and IEC International Electrotechnical Commission will launch the MPEG-1 standard at the end of 1992. By then, Philips, Sony and many other companies will support this format and launch VCD technology. !"

Hearing this, Jiang Wanmeng couldn't help but stunned. Obviously, he had found the right target for his cooperation with C-cube. Jiang Wanmeng regretted it all at once. C-cube company is doing MPEG-1 compression chip, and the company is not...but, fortunately, it hasn't signed a contract yet!

Jiang Wanmeng was silent for a while. In the subsequent conversation, he was always absent-minded, and he quickly said goodbye to Henry.

Henry watched him leave with a faint smile, and didn't say much.

After Jiang Wanmeng left, he reported the situation to the company behind the scenes.

"MPEG-1 is about to become a standard, so C-cube is our best partner. They already have mature technologies and products, and we can launch VCD players soon!" Jiang Wanmeng said.

"That's it?!" The company behind the scenes considered for a while, and finally adopted Jiang Wanmeng's opinion and said: "Well, you should contact C-cube now!"

At this moment, in Henry's office, Sun Yansheng, the chairman of c-cube, is talking to Henry, but his identity has changed from chairman to CEO. After Henry met Jiang Wanmeng, he immediately ordered people to buy c-cube. c-cube was just a small company and there was no pressure to buy it. It took almost an afternoon to complete the acquisition in a flash.

The best technology of c-cube lies in the MPEG-1 compression chip, but it has not yet found a profitable direction.

Sun Yansheng came to report C-cube's technology to Henry: "The architecture of C-cube's MPEG-1 compression chip belongs to the ARM+MPEG-1 video compression unit, and the technology is currently in the leading position in the industry!"

Henry smiled at him and nodded clearly. Although the c-cube company is small. However, there is a specialization in the technical industry. No wonder that later generations can monopolize the Chinese VCD decoder chip market. How can this be done without two brushes?

Sun Yansheng looked at the young face in front of him. Can not help but give birth to a trace of high mountains and standing still, and even awe. He was originally the chairman of c-cube company. The number of shares held is 30%, but in a blink of an eye, the company’s shares were acquired by Henry Williams for 51%. Subsequently, a board meeting was formally held with himself and other shareholders. At the meeting, Henry Williams officially entered the c-cube company as chairman. Then raised 100 million U.S. dollars to dilute everyone's shares. Finally, Henry Williams personally holds more than 85% of the shares!

Henry Williams's strength made everyone helpless, but the thought of the company getting a huge sum of US$100 million. And with his support, perhaps the company can grow and become a company with a market value of tens of billions!

The thought of this made everyone feel very excited.

Especially when they think of the market value of many companies under Henry's name exceeding tens of billions of dollars, they can't help but think that C-cube may also have this potential...

Henry invested 100 million US dollars, not only simply acquiring c-cube company, diluting other people's shares, but more importantly, he wanted to lay out for DVD. VCD uses the MPEG-1 standard, and DVD uses the MPEG-2 standard. Obviously, C-cube has the potential to develop into a DVD standard setter! ! !

The so-called first-rate companies make standards, second-rate companies make brands, and third-rate companies make products.

How can a product-making company fight to be a standard company?

...

...

The next day, Jiang Wanmeng rushed to C-cube company non-stop.

"Hello, I'm Jiang Wanmeng, I want to discuss things with your chairman!" Jiang Wanmeng said to the lady at the front desk after entering the c-cube company.

"Hello, please wait a moment, I'll call the chairman!" The lady at the front desk said with a smile.

"Okay!" Jiang Wanmeng nodded.

After a while, the lady at the front desk hung up and said to Jiang Wanmeng, "Please follow me, the chairman happens to see you indirectly!"

As he walked, Jiang Wanmeng observed c-cube company, because he found that c-cube company suddenly had a lot of new faces. When he came last time, the number of employees was not half as many as here. Jiang Wanmeng couldn't help but wonder.

At the door of the chairman's office, the lady at the front desk knocked on the door and then pushed the door open. She smiled at Jiang Wanmeng and said, "Mr. Jiang Wanmeng, please come in, I will not accompany you!"

Jiang Wanmeng nodded and walked in. After entering, he first saw a figure from behind. He thought it was Sun Yansheng sitting on the office chair, and said hello: "Hello, Mr. Sun Yansheng!"

At this time, the office chair turned around, and Jiang Wanmeng opened his mouth in astonishment.

"Way, Mr. Williams?!!!"

Henry smiled at him, "What's wrong, Mr. Jiang Wanmeng, I was surprised to see me, isn't it?"

Jiang Wanmeng was stunned for a while before nodding. At the same time, his expression looked very unnatural!

He was about to have a talk with Henry, but suddenly came to C-cube, his intention was obvious! When he saw Henry again, especially at C-cube, how could he not be embarrassed?

Jiang Wanmeng was puzzled, there were many questions he wanted to ask, but he couldn't speak.

"Please sit down!" At this moment, Henry beckoned to him.

Hearing the words, Jiang Wanmeng walked forward slowly and sat down on the chair opposite the desk.

"Mr. Jiang Wanmeng, I don't know what you do in C-cube?" Henry asked deliberately.

Jiang Wanmeng flushed, unable to speak.

Henry chuckled and said, "Mr. Jiang Wanmeng, are you wondering if you didn't see Sun Yansheng here but saw me?"

Jiang Wanmeng nodded and said, "Yes!"

"Hehe, it's actually very simple, because I bought the C-cube company a long time ago!"

After Henry finished speaking, he looked at him with a smile.

Jiang Wanmeng couldn't help showing a look of shock.

"Mr. Jiang Wanmeng, it seems that you still have no confidence in me. Otherwise, you won't come to C-cube company..."

Jiang Wanmeng smiled awkwardly. "Mr. Williams. I'm really sorry. I was ashamed of meeting you at C-Cube today! You know, after hearing you say that MPEG-1 will become a standard. Obviously C-Cube will be more Good cooperation partner, and the company behind me also decided to cooperate with C-cube. But now, since Mr. Williams has also acquired C-cube, then it happens that the content we discussed before can remain unchanged. If If you like, we can sign a contract now, lest you worry that we will change our minds again!"

Henry laughed and said nothing.

Is there such a cheap thing in the world? If you want to cooperate, cooperate. Don't want to cooperate, kick it off with one kick, really when others are asking you?

Jiang Wanmeng looked at Henry's expression. I couldn't help feeling anxious.

"Mr. Williams, what do you think?" Jiang Wanmeng asked again.

"Haha. I'm sorry, I'm not in the mood to take a stake in your newly established VCD company!" Henry laughed mockingly, "However. Don't worry, the decoder chip will still be sold to you!"

Henry has decided to start anew.

Now that China has allowed foreign investors to directly establish companies there, there is no need to compromise and invest in a Chinese company.

Hearing this, Jiang Wanmeng breathed a sigh of relief. As long as the decoder chip is provided, everything else doesn't matter.

Jiang Wanmeng talked for a while and then left. Staying here makes him very uncomfortable!

...

Henry merged the C-cube company into Williams Electronics, and then used the power of the group to accelerate the speed of VCD research, striving to develop the whole machine as soon as possible, and then apply for a patent. Since Jiang Wanmeng doesn't pay attention to the patent of the whole machine, he is not welcome.

In China, this patent may be useless. But if you leave China, you can sell it without paying royalties?

As of August, the steam platform has been established.

The firefly game company immediately convened a meeting with its partners. At the meeting, the steam platform plan was officially announced. Henry also attended this conference this time. The importance of the steam platform is self-evident. It will be the first platform to release countless new games, and it will also be the platform with the most games in the world. It may even make more money than Firefly. More platforms!

With its game platform and two games, Firefly Games has established the undisputed number one in the computer game industry.

There were as many as thousands of participants this time, and most of the world's game companies were invited, including Firefly Games' rival, EA Games.

Henry walked slowly to the front of the stage in a handsome suit.

"Welcome everyone to participate in this conference organized by Firefly Games. This conference is very strong and has invited all the powerful game companies in the world. You must have been very puzzled, what is the purpose of Firefly Games for holding such a conference! Now, let me tell everyone!"

Henry smiled and said loudly, "Everyone should be familiar with the Firefly game platform! Previously, many game companies wanted to log games on the platform, but due to certain factors, the Firefly game company did not Yes. But we will try our best to meet the customer's requirements. Therefore, we have developed another game platform-the steam platform!!!"

"The steam platform relies on the firefly game platform, which can be regarded as a sub-platform of the firefly game platform, so you don’t have to worry about not being popular! Our company aims to create two game platforms. The steam game platform is like an NBA draft, while the firefly game The platform is like the NBA. Under normal circumstances, new games are released on the steam platform. If the game is popular, you can enter the Firefly game platform! Presumably you also know how many registered users of the Firefly game platform, once you enter the Firefly game platform, you can definitely make money Full of pours!!!"

As soon as Henry's voice fell, the group of people below suddenly talked.

Many people have moved expressions on their faces. Obviously, for them, the advantages of this decision outweigh the disadvantages!

But some people showed jealous expressions, and the representative of EA Game Company was one of them.

Henry waited for them to discuss for five minutes, then stretched out his hand to signal everyone to be quiet, and then said: "Join the steam platform, we will charge 20% of the release fee; enter the Firefly game platform. We will charge 25% of the release fee! This release The cost is comparable to that of your offline game publishing company. It is almost several times less! Therefore, by joining our company's game platform, you will earn more!!!"

"At present, more than 15 million people have registered as users of the Firefly game platform. That is to say. As long as you enter the Firefly game platform, you will have 15 million potential users. Over time, the platform users will More and more. I might as well tell you here that as many as 11.5 million users have purchased the registration code for the "Doom" game. As many as 9.8 million users have purchased the registration code for the "Warcraft 1" game! Only this month , Firefly Games has earned more than 400 million U.S. dollars!!!"

Henry finished speaking. The bottom is like a frying pan, noisy.

"My God, this is too profitable. It actually made 400 million U.S. dollars in a month!!!"

"Yes, Firefly Game Company has dug a golden mountain! Have you ever wondered what the net profit is?! Except for the little bit of operating expenses of the game platform, which is less than 1 million US dollars. The other is net. profit!!!"

"Oh, my heart can't stand it! This is too stimulating for me!"

"Hehe, if any company's game can also log on to the Firefly game platform. I'm sure, I will make a lot of money!"

"The steam platform is also good. Since it is a sub-platform of the Firefly game platform, it can naturally attract the popularity of the Firefly game platform."

"Not only that, after logging in to the steam platform, you may also log in to the Firefly game platform. If it were me, I would definitely be willing to publish the game to the steam platform!"

"Hey, the Firefly game platform alone is already enviable. Now, the Firefly Game Company has found another cash cow!!!"

"Do you think anyone can have a cash cow? You go to develop a game platform and try to see how many companies are willing to publish games on it?"

"Hehe, my company is not capable of owning the cash cow game platform, but other companies do!"

"You mean EA Game Company? Haha, ea company founder and ceo Tripp Hawkins has a stern face. I am afraid that I hate the Firefly Game Company. It must be the launch of the steam platform, many game companies Will switch to the Firefly Game Company!"

"Haha, that's right! In addition, Firefly Game Company also invented CD encryption technology, even if it is sold offline, it has an advantage over EA Company! Anyway, I have decided that I will hold Firefly Game Company's thigh in the future!"

"Hold your thighs together!"

"..."

Henry deliberately coughed twice and pressed his hand to signal everyone to be quiet.

Henry's influence was not a trumpet, and the audience was quiet all of a sudden, waiting for his speech.

"If the game is released on the steam platform, the offline distribution rights must also be handed over to the Firefly Game Company, so that management can be facilitated and greater value can be created! Otherwise, the distribution is not unified, it will cause heavy losses. For offline distribution, our channels are gradually improving. Firefly Game House spreads all over the United States, and will subsequently establish branches in Europe and even around the world! To be honest, we have the financial resources to establish the world’s largest sales channel, and we have the ability Create the greatest profit for our customers! Today, you are proud of Firefly, tomorrow, Firefly will be proud of you! We believe that under the Firefly game platform, there will be "Doom" and "Warcraft 1" This kind of very popular game!!!"

Bang bang bang! ! ! !

Suddenly, there was a burst of applause, and the waves were higher than the waves, and the faces of many game company representatives showed extremely excited expressions!

Henry raised his hand, and the audience was silent.

"After the conference, the steam platform officially invites investment; one month later, the steam platform is officially released, and those who are interested will come to sign soon!!!"

Bang bang bang! ! !

There was another round of applause.

When Henry finished speaking, he bent over and bowed, and then walked off the stage. The conference also ended, and the staff of Firefly Game Company began to organize other game companies to sign contracts.

At the end of the day, more than 600 game companies signed contracts with Firefly Games. In other words, in the future, at least 600 games will appear on the steam platform!

At this time, the homepage of the Firefly game platform also began to promote the steam platform.

Even game companies that have not received an invitation can understand the situation of the steam platform, and they can also sell games through the steam platform after signing the contract!

The success of the Firefly game platform has made many game companies envy and hate, and the current steam platform has touched their nervous nerves! These companies have followed suit one after another and have to launch their own game platforms! However, these companies do not know that the sky is high and the earth is thick, and most of them will end in failure!

At this time, the long-prepared game discs for "Doom" and "Warcraft 1" have been deployed from the factory to each Firefly game house.

Countless players are already hungry and thirsty, and Henry can no longer whet their appetite.

On the second day after the investment promotion conference on the steam platform, it was officially launched in all parts of the United States!

In order to inform the players, a special promotion was made on the Firefly game platform. I believe that this little news will soon spread throughout the United States. The major media in the United States also reported the news immediately!

Soon, a long line formed outside the firefly game house!

On this day, the rate of skipping classes across the United States has risen by 30%, and almost every school has a group to buy game CDs! ! !

In some schools, more than half of the students skipped class to buy game CDs. Looking at the empty classrooms, the principal smiled bitterly. In desperation, he could only announce that this day was a holiday!

Countless people are coming, and the Firefly Game House is overcrowded!

In the game experience center of the game house, a new arcade game machine was placed at this time. People originally came to buy the game CDs of "Doom" and "Warcraft 1", but they went to play arcade games because of their curiosity. It's amazing in one click!

You can't stop playing this new arcade game! ! !

This arcade is a new game "King of Fighters 1992" developed by Capcom Co., Ltd., which will be released globally in early August!

"The King of Fighters 1992" is cooler than "Street Fighter 2", with many characters, strong balance, many moves, and various combinations of moves emerge in an endless stream. Play with a strong sense of operation!

Firefly Game House took advantage of the high traffic volume today and released "The King of Fighters 1992" by the way. Now there is no need to publicize the game, and the game has spread among American players! It won't be long before it will be popular all over the world!

After the end of the day, in addition to the popularity of "The King of Fighters 1992", 1.5 million "Doom" game discs and 1.1 million "Warcraft 1" game discs were sold. This set of data was released as soon as Shocked the world!

Countless people are jealous, envious, and at the same time have brought huge influence to the Firefly Game Company!

"Unbelievable~lightnovelpub.net~ In one day, you can actually sell so many game CDs!"

"These two games are really good, and because they need to be online to play, many players are itchy because they can't play. After waiting for a long time, and finally waited for the day when the game CDs were released, everyone could not rush to buy them. Otherwise, it is impossible to create the miracle of selling so many game discs in one day!!!"

"Yeah, that's right! Everyone is suffocating!"

"In addition, the encryption of optical discs is probably one of the main reasons for the hot sales this time!"

...

Firefly Game Company CEO Simon Hodge called Henry and said: "Chairman, the Firefly Game House is now overcrowded. As more game companies choose to let us publish, we must build bigger and more game houses to meet the requirements!"

"Well, then step up to build the firefly game house!"
