Chapter 433 "Donkey Kong" and the Walkman are on the market (7K chapter, please subscribe~)

Tuesday!

   Tang Ji woke up early this time and finally bought a copy of "True News". Like him, many people around him are buying newspapers.

   Obviously, these people are all paying attention to Qingzhou Yingni's takeover battle.

It's just that today's newspaper obviously disappointed them. Although the two companies, China Real Estate and Hefu, have issued notices, they have no intention of increasing the price to acquire Qingzhou Yingni. They still maintain the price of 20 Hong Kong dollars per share to acquire Qingzhou Yingni. Ni stock.

In addition, Huaren Real Estate also announced a news that in order to facilitate shareholders who hold Qingzhou Yingni stocks to sell their Qingzhou Yingni stocks as soon as possible, Baoyuan and Fengwu are located in Hong Kong Island respectively. In Central and Tsim Sha Tsui, Kowloon, two new acquisition points have been added. Shareholders who hold Qingzhou Yingni shares can sell their Qingzhou Yingni shares nearby!

   "Is the price of 20 Hong Kong dollars the last one?"

  At this time, Tang Ji was feeling a little fluctuated while sitting in the minibus.

   There are not a few people who think like him.

   Soon, there were also rumors in the business community in Xiangjiang that the final purchase price of China Land was HK$20 per share, which would never be raised again. In addition, the purchase price of Hefu was almost in this range.

  As for the news from Chinese Land, or the news from Hefu, in fact, the outside world can no longer test it.

   "It seems that we are not the only ones spreading the news, Hefu is also contributing to the flames!"

  Xu Yi sat opposite Chu Huan and reported the situation to Chu Huan.

   Naturally, someone from Chu Huan spread the news. Now people outside are waiting for the news that Huaren Real Estate or Hefu will increase the acquisition of Qingzhou Yingni's stock price.

  So they are all firmly holding on to the stocks in Qingzhou Yingni in their hands and not selling.

   Such a situation is naturally not what Huaren Real Estate and Hefu want to see. There is nothing wrong with the competition between the two parties, but they also do not want to pay a higher price to acquire Qingzhou Yingni, which is not in the interests of both parties.

  So when Chu Huan sent someone to spread the news, I don't know if Hefu had someone there, but if not, it would definitely be like Xu Yi said, fueling the flames in the middle.

   "The next step is to see whether those investors want shares or cash!"

  Chu Huan preached calmly.

  For such a situation, Chu Huan can accept it, and even accept it with pleasure, because Chu Huan always believes that everyone prefers to ask for cash.

   "Baoyuan, Fengwu two purchase points arranged?"

  Chu Huan then asked Xu Yi that he hadn't read today's newspaper.

  Yesterday, Chu Huan asked Wu Shuhan to inform Baoyuan and Fengwu to add 4 acquisition points. This is Chu Huan's micromanagement of this acquisition battle.

  Xu Yi nodded and said: "It has been arranged."

   "Notify Huodoli and Yifu immediately, and increase the acquisition points immediately!"

  Chang Shi, Li Jiacheng preached a little angrily at this time.

   "How could I forget this!"

  Sheng Songsheng said: "We have notified Huodoli and Yee Fu, and I believe they are already arranging this matter at this time, but"

  After a pause, Sheng Songsheng said helplessly: "We are already one step behind Chinese real estate. In addition, there is still a process for Dolly and Yee Fu to add acquisition points."

   "After all, it's a step too late!" Li Jiacheng sighed: "Before, I just focused on the shareholders of Qingzhou Yingni, but Jiang Ran forgot about it!

  Obviously, when Landmark acquired the milk company, it used this tactic, how could it not be noticed! "

  Looking at Li Jiacheng's annoyed look, Sheng Songsheng, Zhou Qian and the two of them did not make a sound to comfort them, saying that this time is nothing.

   Both of them understand that the acquisition of Qingzhou Yingni is now at a fever pitch, and any advantage may have an immeasurable impact on the final result.

   "Chairman, this matter is irreparable now, we should hurry up and find a way to recover these losses!"

   Zhou Qianhe suggested.

  Li Jiacheng nodded slightly, and said, "How is the acquisition situation between Huodoli and Yi Fu?"

Zhou Qianhe shook his head slightly, and said: "The situation is not very good. Some shareholders who came to consult obviously did not understand Hefu's acquisition plan very well, and the staff of the two companies would spend a lot of time explaining to them. It also led to a longer time to complete a single transaction, but looking at Baoyuan and Fengwu, the situation is much clearer, it is a cash purchase, simple and clear."

  Li Jiacheng scratched his head again, the situation was gradually developing in the direction he didn't want to see.

  According to what Zhou Qianhe said, even if there are 100 people, Huaren Real Estate can complete all transactions in the morning, and can conduct new transactions in the afternoon.

   As for Hefu, it may only take one day to complete the transaction of these one hundred people.

   "Any good news?"

  Li Jiacheng needs good news at this time to calm himself down.

Sheng Songsheng said: "It's not that there is no good news. First of all, most of the stockholders still recognize the stocks of Jardine Matheson and Swire. In addition, our cash is also abundant with the capital injection of the four foreign banks and HSBC. We Although the acquisition plan is a bit more complicated, the options available to stockholders have also increased. Not all stockholders want cash, but also stocks from companies such as Jardine or Swire. Finally, according to the analysis, our current The shareholding should still be more than that of Huaren Real Estate!"

   After hearing the three good news, Li Jiacheng finally breathed a sigh of relief, but he still preached.

   "What is the basis of the company's analysis that our shareholding is larger than that of Huaren Real Estate?"

Sheng Songsheng said: "First of all, we entered the market earlier than Huaren Real Estate. This is the biggest advantage. Secondly, we have already obtained the shares of Luoshi Matheson and Diamond Matheson in Yingni, Qingzhou. Although Chu Huan's side also has a great possibility After getting Zhang Yuliang and Yang Yuanlong's shares in Qingzhou Yingni, plus the data analysis that everyone had when Qingzhou Yingni's stock was still in circulation.

  Finally, it was determined that Hefu held more shares in Qingzhou Yingni than Huaren Real Estate. "

Li Jiacheng said: "It is still necessary to prevent accidents. Those people we sent out yesterday afternoon have lost their goals. It is obvious that Chu Huan has some actions that we don't want us to find out. If one of Ni's shareholders sells the stock of Qingzhou Yingni to the other party, then the other party is likely to complete the overtaking of us!"

  Zhou Qianhe cooperated and analyzed: "It is very possible, and this possibility is very high, but I don't think it can be ruled out that Chu Huan is using this matter to disturb our judgment and make wrong choices."

Sheng Songsheng also said: "Old Zhou is right. No matter on any battlefield, the most taboo thing is to be led into their rhythm by the enemy. If we keep following Chu Huan's rhythm, we may lose in the end." Lost this war."

Li Jiacheng listened to the analysis of his two arms, thought for a while, and said: "Although we can't let the other party lead the way in this matter, we can't do without any countermeasures, so that you can speed up the negotiation with Qingzhou Yingni shareholders. Contact, I'm going all in on Daniel Cook."

   Sheng Songsheng, Zhou Qian and the two nodded. Now that things have come to this point, they have no better choice.

In this way, Huaren Real Estate and Hefu both calculated each other and continued to let time pass slowly while testing each other. During this period, all forces in Xiangjiang focused on the acquisition of Qingzhou Yingni. I didn't notice that in other places, two big things happened enough to change the development of the two industries.

  First thing, Wolf Smoke Games finally ended the test of "Donkey Kong" at the end of September. After entering October, this game will be launched in North America.

Chu Huan came to Beacon Game on the morning of the 1st, and the main creators of Beacon Game, Junhei Yokoi, Shigeru Miyamoto, the production team led by them, and Bao Tianming were all excitedly waiting for Chu Huan in the factory 's arrival

   "Mr. Chu, fortunately, "Donkey Kong" can finally be launched!"

Bao Tianming did not report this matter to Chu Huan immediately, but handed over the work to Junpei Yokoi. He knew that Chu Huan valued Junpei Yokoi and Shigeru Miyamoto very much, so he took this opportunity Gave it to both of them.

   Anyway, according to his relationship with Chu Huan, he wouldn't need these things.

Chu Huan and Yokoi Junping, Miyamoto Shigeru said: "During this time, Mr. Yokoi, Mr. Miyamoto has suffered a lot for this game. The company has prepared red envelopes for the two and other R&D personnel, and also gave you a seven-day holiday. After the seven-day holiday, we will develop new games and other projects.

  At the same time, I also hope that within these seven days, you can recruit more talents for the company. "

Junpei Yokoi and Shigeru Miyamoto looked at each other, and they both saw joy in each other's eyes. In the end, Gunpei Yokoi smiled and said, "Thank you Chu-san, we just want to take advantage of the seven-day vacation to return to Japan. Let's take a look at the sales of this game in Japan!"

Chu Huan was naturally very satisfied with Junhei Yokoi and Shigeru Miyamoto's responsible attitude, but he still smiled and said: "The main battlefield of the game "Donkey Kong" is in North America, not Japan. Of course, the company will definitely promote this game to Japan, but in terms of sales, I don't think you two should have too much hope."

Junhei Yokoi and Shigeru Miyamoto were both taken aback. They didn't expect that Chu Huan would say such a thing. The two of them traveled thousands of miles from Japan to Xiangjiang. Although the treatment here was a reason that made them very satisfied, but The two are the same as Kamakura Yasuo from Fantasy Manga.

   They also hope to return home, and now this "Donkey Kong" is the basis for them to return home, but they didn't expect that Chu Huan actually wanted to promote this game in North America.

Seeing the expressions of the two, Chu Huan knew what they were thinking, and said with a smile: "You don't need to have any regrets, the game of Wolf Smoke has just started, and there will be countless games to be released later. Xiangjiang, Japan, Southeast Asia, Europe and the United States will all have games of Wolf Smoke Games, and I can assure you both that Wolf Smoke Games will definitely allow your names to be written in the history of world games!"

Junpei Yokoi and Shigeru Miyamoto are two game talents that Chu Huan is very optimistic about. They can be used directly after 2000. If Gunpei Yokoi can live beyond 2000 in this era, Chu Huan still has to work hard at this time. To appease the restless hearts of the two.

  The two of them just felt a little regretful that the first game they developed could not directly land in Japan for the first time, but they were still very moved when they saw how much Chu Huan valued themselves.

   "Chu Sang is too polite, working here, we feel respect and trust, please rest assured Chu Sang, we will continue to work hard to serve Wolf Smoke Games!"

  Gunhei Yokoi preached seriously.

The working environment of Junping Yokoi is indeed very relaxed. Although Bao Tianming is the general manager of Wolf Smoke Games in name, he can actually regard Wolf Smoke Games as two departments, one is the research and development department, the other is the administrative department, and the administrative department The department also includes other departments such as sales, publicity, finance, personnel, etc. This is Bao Tianming's main battlefield.

Junpei Yokoi and others belong to the research and development department. In this department, Junpei Yokoi is the boss. Even Bao Tianming can't directly order them to do anything. Instead, they must ensure their logistics work. It is such a loose and respectful approach. , Let Junhei Yokoi, Shigeru Miyamoto and those R&D personnel feel the greatest respect, and the enthusiasm for R&D is also very high.

  Of course, whether such a situation will breed the arrogance of the staff in the R&D department, and how to suppress this arrogance after they have such arrogance is something that Bao Tianming needs to worry about.

  But no matter what, Junhei Yokoi, Shigeru Miyamoto and those R&D talents at this time simply love the working environment of Wolf Smoke Games.

  Afterwards, Chu Huan personally interviewed all the talents in the entire R&D department, and gave everyone a big red envelope before returning to the office with Bao Tianming.

   "The sales channels in Europe and the United States have been opened up, and IWC has been contacted. The earliest batch of goods has been shipped to Europe and the United States a week ago. Now we are waiting for the time to arrive and start selling!"

  In this period, sea transportation is the important means of transportation that is separated by thousands of miles. Before that, the game console of "Donkey Kong" has been shipped to Europe and the United States through Cao Wenjin's Wanbang Shipping.

"We have two cooperation models with the sellers in Europe and the United States. The first is to sell the machine directly to the other party at a price of 1,500 US dollars each. The second is to operate in a cooperative mode. The company releases the machine for free. In their stores, the profits of each machine sales are shared. According to the company’s survey, this model is more likely to be accepted by North American sellers at this stage, but because such sales will increase our labor costs to a certain extent, although It can make long-term profits, but it is not in our development interests in the short term."

Speaking of this, Bao Tianming paused for a moment, and then said: "Although we have made initial contact with European and American sellers, they don't trust us very much. After all, we are a new company, so in the early stage, the entire North American China’s order quantity is less than 2,000 units, and Europe is only 2,500 units, but this time we directly shipped 10,000 units to North America and Europe, and you asked the company to start producing 100,000 game arcade machines now. would be too risky.

  Counting all the costs, this is nearly 100 million US dollars! "

The relationship between Chu Huan and Bao Tianming naturally does not need to be too polite, so Bao Tianming was very surprised by Chu Huan's decision. He had already mentioned it to Chu Huan before, but at that time Chu Huan did not He didn't agree, and now the matter has been done, but he still couldn't help reminding Chu Huan.

  The selling price of a "Donkey Kong" is 2,500 US dollars, plus the production cost, transportation cost, promotional cost, and sales share, the profit of a machine is 70%.

  Of course, such a high-profit business cannot last for a long time, just like the sales of video recorders in Kyushu. In the middle and late stages, such profits will definitely be reduced, and the sales price will also be reduced.

  However, according to Chu Huan's understanding of the game industry, this period of time can at least make Wolf Smoke Games ten years ahead of other game companies!

Chu Huan said very calmly at this time: "Don't worry, this time the wolf smoke game will definitely surprise you. I'm sure this game will be very popular in Europe and the United States. If the game is a big success, the sales of the machine will be huge." There will be a blowout mode, and it will be too late for us to ship goods to Europe and the United States by then!

   Otherwise, I wouldn’t have taken a loan from Sumitomo Bank for this game! "

For the development of Wolf Smoke Game, Chu Huan first invested 70 million Hong Kong dollars. These funds were used to build factories, purchase equipment, develop games, and recruit talents. More machines are enough.

  But when Chu Huan decided to directly increase the number of arcade machines produced, it was not enough.

  So after Chu Huan came back from Japan and heard Bao Tianming's report, he immediately called Ichiro Ichiro of Sumitomo Bank, and took a loan of 100 million U.S. dollars from Sumitomo Bank with Fantasy Comic Club as the main loan.

  As for why Chu Huan was so anxious to let Wolf Smoke Games directly produce so many games, the purpose was because of a failed decision by Nintendo in another time and space.

In another time and space, "Space Invaders" became popular, and Nintendo urgently developed a similar game and sent it to North America. As a result, there was a problem with the transportation. It took four months to travel from Japan to New York, and so on. After Nintendo's games arrived in North America, the day lily was cold, and the popularity of this game also dropped a lot, causing all Nintendo consoles to become stock in the warehouse.

  This incident caused Nintendo to almost go bankrupt. In the end, they developed the rescue work of "Donkey Kong", which saved Nintendo, which was about to go bankrupt.

  With the cooperation of Wanbang Shipping, although it is impossible for the host of Wolf Smoke Game to arrive in North America in such a long time. In fact, the normal situation is that it takes seven days to arrive in North America from Xiangjiang by sea.

  But no one can guarantee that there will be no accidents in matters such as shipping. Even if there is an accident, I can't ask my future father-in-law for compensation, right?

  So Chu Huan would rather rent warehouses in North America, Europe and other places, and send the game first, and won't wait too long.

   You know, the arcade game "Donkey Kong" sold 67,000 units in North America alone, and this was in the era when arcade games had become popular.

Now "Donkey Kong" is a few years earlier than another time and space, and earlier than the first popular game "Space Invaders", so these 100,000 units are the real number one in Chu Huan's opinion. batch.

   But with these 100,000 machines, it is enough to give Chu Huan more time.

  Bao Tianming saw that Chu Huan was so sure, and that the arcade machine had already been released, he had no choice but to accept this reality, "I hope everything goes as you expected!"

  Chu Huan laughed and said, "Don't worry about it tomorrow, when did you see me fight an unprepared battle?"

  Bao Tianming thought about Chu Huan's previous successful experience, finally nodded, and then continued: "There is one more thing I want to discuss with you!"

  Chu Huan asked: "What is it?"

Bao Tianming said: "It is the matter of setting up an arcade game room in Xiangjiang that we discussed before. I found that we took it for granted before. Now the Wolf Smoke game only has the game "Donkey Kong", which cannot support a game room at all. If the cost of buying other arcade games is too high, I think we should wait until we develop more games before doing this.”

  When Chu Huan and Bao Tianming were discussing arcade games, they mentioned the arcade game room. At that time, Bao Tianming proposed that he could invest in his former younger brother Skull to do this.

  Chu Huan also expressed no opinion at the time.

  However, the arcade games in the world are still in their infancy. Most of the arcade games are European and American games, and there is not even a dominant game. Bao Tianming made this decision after thinking for a long time.

  Chu Huan glanced at Bao Tianming and asked, "You make the decision on this matter, I have no opinion!"

  Bao Tianming nodded and said, "Tomorrow I will fly to North America. Do you have anything to say?"

   "Donkey Kong" is the first arcade game released by Wolf Smoke Games in North America. Bao Tianming will definitely go to North America to sit in charge.

  Chu Huan said: "Pay attention to your own safety. If you have any problems, call Haichao. He still has a certain influence in North America and Europe."

With the success of Kyushu around the world, although Chen Haichao is very low-key in Xiangjiang, in North America, Europe and other places, although not high-profile, it is better than when he was in Xiangjiang. With Chen Haichao, Bao Tianming No problem.

   "I have already called Hai Chao before, and said that after meeting with you today, he will also take the plane to North America tomorrow!"

  Bao Tianming said with a smile.

  The second thing Chu Huan has to deal with today is actually the matter of the Kyushu Walkman. Like the "Donkey Kong" game, the Kyushu Walkman has been developed and tested successfully, and will be officially launched.

   Even now in Xiangjiang, and other places in the world, advertisements have already been overwhelming.

   Just like the previous Kyushu video recorder, during the R&D process of Kyushu Walkman, Chu Huan and Chen Haichao have already agreed on the main customer group of this product!

  Young people aged 16 to 30!

  This will be a trend-setting product, so the methods used in the promotion process are also different. For example, the spokespersons invited globally are all idols of young people.

  Simply speaking, it is the small fresh meat and small flowers of various countries.

  However, Chu Huan and Chen Haichao wanted to maintain a sense of mystery in Xiangjiang, so Chu Huan no longer wanted to go to Kyushu Electronics as before. The place where the two met was in the vacant villa in Deep Water Bay.

   "Brother Huan, I'm going to North America tomorrow, do you have anything else to say?"

  Chen Haichao, Bao Tianming, Liu Pingkui, Zhu Xiaozhao, and Chu Huan were sitting in the living room of this villa. Chen Haichao asked Chu Huan about his explanation for going to North America this time.

Chu Huan laughed softly and said, "With the listing experience of Kyushu home video recorders, I don't think I have anything to explain to you. The launch of Kyushu Walkman this time can be regarded as the first time for you to complete the sales of a product independently. Mission!"

Chen Haichao's expression began to become serious. Although he was responsible for the specific operation of the previous Kyushu video recorder series products, in fact, before that, Chu Huan had already formulated a complete sales plan. He was just an executor. Although it succeeded, Chen Haichao understood that he did not actually play a decisive role in it.

This made Chen Haichao suffocate all the time, now that he heard what Chu Huan said, he immediately cheered up and said to Chu Huan seriously: "Brother Huan, don't worry, I will definitely not let you down !"

  Chu Huan nodded and said, "Although the sales of Kyushu Walkmans are very important, don't delay the research and development of batteries!"

  When Chu Huan decided to make Kyushu Walkman, he had already decided to enter the battery industry, which is why Chu Huan said this.

  Chen Haichao slightly raised his forehead and said: "I know!"

After a pause, Chen Haichao continued: "Brother Huan, Brother Audiovisual has completed its global layout, and Kyushu will not have any major expenditures other than retaining a part of working capital and R&D funds. Why don't I put the October income into the account of Jiaku Consulting Company in the Swiss bank?"

  Chen Haichao also knows that now is an important moment for Huaren Real Estate and Hefu to compete for Qingzhou Yingni, so he also wants to contribute to this matter.

  When Zhu Xiaozhao and others heard what Chen Haichao said, they also wanted to support Chu Huan, but Chu Huan refused.

   "Forget it, just be responsible for your own affairs, especially Kui Zai, save your money to buy properties for yourself."

   Zhu Xiaozhao and the others stopped talking.

Then Chu Huan said to Chen Haichao: "I expect that in a few days, the acquisition battle of Qingzhou Yingni will be over, and the funds from Kyushu will not be able to help, but now it is as you said. In that way, Kyushu is already on the right track, and Kyushu’s profits will indeed be the same as those of Wolf Smoke Games in the future, and the profits will be transferred to the account of Jiaku Consulting Company in the Swiss bank, and then redistributed.”

  If other people hear the news, they will definitely be disappointed, but Chen Haichao and the others will not, which is why Chu Huan can safely hand over these core companies to them.

   "No problem!" After Chen Haichao finished speaking, he said worriedly for Chu Huan: "If we do this, will Jiaku know about our relationship?"

  Chu Huan waved his hands and said: "No, Xu Yi is in charge of this matter personally, and my sister-in-law will handle it, and others will not know."

  Hearing what Chu Huan said, Chen Haichao had nothing to worry about!

It took a long time to check the price information of arcade machines, and today I can only get two chapters. Counting the one owed today, I owe you another eight chapters. When will this debt be paid off~~~ ~~
