Chapter 059: Layout
Two days later, Kishimoto and Park met again at Hard Gold Capital. The two sides first exchanged simple polite greetings, and then sat in the conference room for a face-to-face substantive business contact.
Another employee of NEXON Computer Games, who came with Park, took the initiative to put the thick two financing plans that had been prepared in advance in front of Masayoshi Kishimoto and Ryuai Miyazaki.
Mr. Park personally went into battle and gave a general explanation of the whole process in English, explaining the financing and analyzing the feasibility of the plan.
His purpose was clear, he wanted money. The content of this explanation is to let the other party know that investing in them is not to make money go down the drain, but to make money.
Kishimoto listened to him as he spoke, and on the other hand, he looked through the financing plan on the conference table. He's completely dual-minded.
In fact, I have already decided in my heart that investing in NEXON computer games is indeed a good project that will be profitable and profitable in the long run.
However, he could not express it directly. Otherwise, you will be in a passive position in the future bargaining process. His previous hawking strategy against Park was clearly effective.
This time, Park Chang's posture is to lower his figure a lot. Kishimoto justice wants the other party to figure out and correct a position and mentality, and the question of who invests in whom.
He knew very well that before NEXON Computer Games sent people here, he definitely found a lot of financing channels.
As a result, although they refused to admit it, they just didn't get financing. So, they learned that NCsoft's Kim Taek-jin could raise money from them, so they flew all the way from Seoul to Tokyo to meet them.
The practical difficulties they faced were exactly the same as those faced by Kanazawa Chen, an online game company at NCsoft. European and American capital went to South Korea to sweep the company, but they looked down on them.
What's more, others have a clear strategy, that is, a large amount of acquisition of entities that have temporary operating difficulties, but are quite competitive internationally.
Otherwise, it is to acquire past competitors or its own lacking parts, and then carry out a better integration and enhance its international competitiveness.
In the context of the intensification of the Asian financial turmoil, NEXON computer games could not bear it. In order to survive, it is natural that we will do everything we can, and as long as there is 1% hope, we must make 100% efforts.
At this point in time, even in the video game market, it is the world of Europe, the United States and RB.
The so-called computer games made in South Korea are also called video games, and even if they are thinking of investing in this field, they will target companies in Europe, the United States, and RB.
The main reason why Kishimoto favored Korean computer game companies is that he knew in advance that their games would be popular in the Chinese market and make a lot of money.
"Legend of Blood", "Miracle", "MapleStory Island", "Sword and Soul", "Crossfire", "Dungeons & Warriors" and so on are all online games developed in South Korea.
Rather than letting them make money, it is better to let themselves control the upstream of this industrial chain first. As for what will be done in the next few years, it is to enter Chinese mainland to invest in those online game agencies, and then control their downstream.
Kishimoto's long-term plan is to eat the bulk of the profits of the online game industry into his stomach from top to bottom, even if he doesn't eat a single fine light and has nothing left.
The decade since 2000 has been the best golden decade for the development of online games in the Chinese market. How could he miss out on such a great opportunity to make money?
Not only that, Kishimoto will also enter the real estate market in the first-tier cities of Chinese mainland. In addition, he also has a strong interest in Seocho-gu, JN-gu, and Songpa-gu in Seoul, South Korea, known as the three districts of Gangnam, which is also the place where housing prices are rising the fastest.
Of course, India will also be its next target country in the future. He has a great interest in software, biopharmaceuticals, real estate in India.
After seeing that Park Changchang finished speaking, Kishimoto raised his head and paid attention to the other party, and said seriously: "How many company shares are you going to sell?"
"Up to 20 percent. Park was straightforward.
"I want 40 percent. Masayoshi Kishimoto didn't even hesitate, and directly expressed his attitude.
Park was stunned for a moment, then came back to his senses and said with a smile: "NEXON Computer Games is not a small company like NCsoft Online Games. Can you really eat it?"
Kishimoto understands what he means, what he does is nothing more than a snake swallowing an elephant. In the other party's view, the strength of his own micro-venture capital company is limited, and the capital is not abundant.
This can invest in one or two projects, which is almost the limit. If they hadn't come to the point of exhaustion, they would never have taken the initiative to come to the door.
"You don't care if I can eat or not, but if you are willing to give away 40% of the shares of NEXON Computer Games to me?"
Park Changchang personally felt the resoluteness from the other party's attitude and said, "I have a question, I hope you don't be surprised." As a result of our investigation, we have obtained information about you personally, and you have a strong background in the pachinko industry?"
Kishimoto didn't feel uncomfortable being investigated by the other party at all, after all, it was a normal business investigation activity. While they were investigating themselves, they were also investigating them themselves.
To put it bluntly, neither of them trusted each other at first. How do you go from distrust to trust? This process takes time to grind.
"First of all, the pachinko industry is completely legal at RB, so there is no such thing as black money for my money. Second, the transfer is through the channels of formal commercial banks, and there is no such thing as money laundering.
Finally, everyone is engaged in business activities, and they should all know that even if they do something illegal, as long as they are not caught, they are not breaking the law. Kishimoto said solemnly.
Park personally confirmed from him that the information in his hands was completely true. The fact that the other party has such a deep background means that they can fully get the amount of money they urgently need.
"You are right, I can't be the master. Now, I can't give you a positive answer. Let me give a report to our president. Park said seriously.
"Yes. What I have is time. You've discussed it, then we'll contact our side. Let's make another appointment to talk. ”
Masayoshi Kishimoto showed a calm and calm appearance, so that the other party could understand that you should be in a hurry, not that I need to be in a hurry.
