The original share capital structure of Facebook Games was 89% for Yuwenfei, 9% for SoftBank Capital, 1% for Effie and 1% for Cai Congxin.

This time, the financing was all funded by SoftBank, and the other three shareholders did not have to pay a penny.

After the financing, Yuwenfei's shares were diluted to 78.9 percent, Effie to 0.9 percent, and Cai Congxin to 0.9 percent.

Conversely, SoftBank's stake rose to 20.1 percent.

In fact, in this way, Yu Wenfei suffered a little loss, because Effie and Cai Congxin's shares should be a little lower.

However, Yu Wenfei waved his hand, and it was good for him to suffer a little loss, so that the two right-hand men could take a little more shares!

This financing should be the largest financing in the global Internet industry since 2003.

It should have been publicized with great fanfare, but according to Yu Wenfei's request, everyone did not publicize it.

Because after financing, a major merger and acquisition will be carried out soon, at this point in time, it is better not to be too public, otherwise, Vivendi's side will not have the hole cards on his side.

The agreement was signed secretly, and Son Masayoshi flew back to the headquarters to prepare funds, and Yu Wenfei asked Effie to inform Mike and Allen that they could start acting.

............

On May 12th, a news that caused a sensation in the global gaming community appeared on all game-related media and websites.

"Mike and I have decided to leave Blizzard, along with more than 40 former Blizzard employees. We couldn't stand working in a layman company anymore because we didn't agree with Vivendi's business philosophy, so we, the old Blizzard employees, were ready to set up a new studio of our own and continue to make the most beautiful games for players around the world......"

Allen, on behalf of all Blizzard employees, sent an open letter.

There is no room for maneuver anymore, because they don't have a so-called non-compete agreement on them, and they can leave their jobs if they say they leave their jobs.

This matter, although there is Yu Wenfei's promotion behind it, but even if he does not intervene, things will go according to this trajectory, Yu Wenfei just let this matter happen a few months in advance.

This open letter has caused a sensation in the global gaming circle.

Because at this time, Blizzard is still the only "god" in the game industry, and there is no company more famous and popular with players.

"Blizzard has lost its soul, and it's all Vivendi's fault!"

"After losing Alan and Mike, as well as those core employees, can Blizzard still be called Blizzard?"

"My God, can Warcraft III be successfully produced? What about our World of Warcraft? Please, is there any problem that can't be discussed and solved?"

"Vivendi is dead, the black-hearted capital doesn't understand the game at all, it's all for the money!

"Down with Vivendi, give me back Blizzard!" ......

For a time, Vivendi and Blizzard were pushed to the forefront.

Both in terms of prestige and emotion, all the media and players are more inclined to those old employees of Blizzard, and no one has a good opinion of Vivendi.

This is also what Blizzard's veteran employees have obtained with more than ten years of continuous high-quality production.

Blizzard at this stage, with high production and high quality, has produced so many popular masterpieces, and no one will think that it is their fault.

Now that things have reached this status, it must be the reason for Vivendi.

In fact, Vivendi's reputation has always been bad, and since the nineties of the last century, the company has been transformed from a water company into a capital company, expanding aggressively, acquiring, merging, splitting, selling......

With all kinds of capital means, it has harmed one small company after another.

Now, it's Blizzard's turn.

............

"Damn, what the hell is going on? Are those people in Blizzard crazy! They leave their jobs without saying hello to us? Don't they have a contract on them, let the legal staff check it, I'm going to sue them!"

Vivendi's CEO, Richard, shouted angrily.

"I've checked that when we bought Blizzard, we didn't sign any binding terms with the two founders out of respect for them. As for those employees, their contracts were signed by Mike and Allen, and obviously they will not leave us with any legal authority. Suffice it to say that all this was premeditated, we were calculated. Richard's assistant said calmly.

"Then watch Blizzard fall? They're all gone, what's left of Blizzard? half-developed games?" Richard said angrily.

"We can continue to recruit people to take over those games, anyway, the IP still belongs to Blizzard, and they can't take it away. The assistant shrugged his shoulders and said indifferently.

This was also an idea, but both of them understood that if there was a big change in the company's staff, the game development process would be greatly delayed.

"Send someone to contact Allen and them to see what they really want, and if things can be undone?" said Richard, waving his hand, sitting wearily in his chair.

"I've been on the phone with Alan and he's ...... The attitude is very resolute. Said that as long as we Vivendi continue to control Blizzard, then he will not go back, and will re-establish a company by himself, and the name will be chosen, called Southern Blizzard......" The assistant replied.

Richard jumped up again all of a sudden, and he said in disbelief: "Southern Blizzard, why do they dare to use the name Blizzard, this is infringement, I want to sue them!"

"It's useless, Mr. Richard, they're called Southern Blizzard, not Blizzard. If they do indict, it's hard to win, and in the United States, it's easier for them to get the sympathy of the jury. "The assistant is very calm and objective.

"Damn Yankee! there's no contract spirit at all, and there's no work ethic!" said Richard indignantly.

The two of them were discussing countermeasures in the office when they heard a noise outside.

“...... Damn ......"

"Give me back ......"

“...... Blizzard"

They could vaguely hear some of the words, but they couldn't hear them clearly.

"What's going on?" Richard wondered, this is Vivendi's headquarters, and it's usually quiet, so what's going on today.

Before the assistant could call to ask what was going on, the office door was pushed open and Richard's secretary hurried in.

"Mr. Richard...... Outside, a lot of demonstrators came outside, saying......"

"What are you talking about!" asked Richard impatiently.

"Say let's get out of Blizzard and give them back Alan Mike. The secretary gritted his teeth and said.

Richard was a little dumbfounded, and he asked in a daze, "Are those players out there?"

"No, it's our local players. The secretary replied.

"Are they crazy? We're compatriots, and they've come to our headquarters to demonstrate for a foreign game company! Call the police, I'm going to get them all out!" Richard was furious.

What's going on today, everything is not going well.

Of course, it was angry to call the police, but in the end, the assistant went out to appease the demonstrators, saying that they would negotiate with Blizzard and properly solve all the problems.

It takes a lot of good words to coax the player away.

"Okay, okay, let's call Alan and Mike again to see what conditions they want. Richard said wearily.

Now, he feels that his acquisition of Blizzard does not seem to be a good deal, after so many years of acquisition, he has not seen much profit, and there are a lot of troubles.

For the American company, he can also be regarded as a teacher, the salary package is world-class, and the employees have a lot of requirements, every move is a holiday, every move is human rights, and doing things is as you like. If you are a little dissatisfied, you dare to yell at your boss, there are no rules!

............

The results of the assistant's communication with Alan and Mike were not very smooth, and the people on Blizzard's side were fed up with Vivendi's management, either Vivendi quit Blizzard, or they left to re-form a new game studio.

And Allen also threatened that the new Southern Blizzard will also make games similar to Diablo, Warcraft, and StarCraft to compete with the old Blizzard.

When Richard heard his assistant's report, he almost jumped again.

However, after a period of calm thinking, Richard also figured out that things had developed to the point of no return, so it was useless to be angry.

The best thing to do now is to think about how to reduce the impact.

"If they all go, don't think about the competition for their new game, because that's going to take a long time to make. How many people do we need to hire to keep Blizzard up and running, and how many people do we need to hire?," Richard asked earnestly.

What he is thinking about now is to let those damn people die, and recruit a new group of obedient employees himself, so that Blizzard can continue to operate normally.

Although he is already thinking about selling Blizzard, if he wants to sell it at a good price, he must also make the company's books look good.

I don't think I have any capital to buy a company that doesn't have employees at all......

"This ...... Blizzard is one of the world's top gaming companies. It's really hard to recruit people who can replace Allen and them...... It's a bit big. The assistant said embarrassedly.

"So, you fly to Blizzard headquarters in the United States and immediately post a job posting in the game industry. In addition, you can quietly let the wind go and say that Blizzard is going to sell to see if any company is willing to take over. If the price is right, Blizzard can be sold. Richard said through gritted teeth.

Originally, he didn't buy Blizzard for a long time, because it didn't fit Vivendi's philosophy.

After acquiring a company, how to quickly and maximize arbitrage is what Vivendi is used to.
