In the previous life, there was a view: collaborative sharing is a new economic model, billions of people are both producers and consumers, sharing energy, information and physical objects on the Internet, ownership is replaced by the right to use, exchange value is replaced by shared value, and human beings will enter a new era of sharing economy.

There are also several major modes of sharing economy, such as shared travel, space, finance, medical care, and knowledge education. However, according to the tuyere theory, or trend thinking. Doing the sharing economy now is likely to do more with less.

But in addition to the sharing economy, Zhou Shi has no good ideas, after all, he is just an ordinary person, and he can only start from life and make some ideas that change our lives. Then now, he has less and less contact with ordinary people, and he doesn't have to worry about almost everything in life, so naturally he can't think of anything that needs to be improved. If it weren't for the experience of his previous life, which made Zhou Shi's thinking very mature, maybe he would have jokes about "why not eat minced meat" in the future. It's not bad that classes and strata limit one's thinking and ideas.

Just when Zhou Shi was worried about how to start a business, something even more worrying happened.

"Simon, I'm so sorry that there was a problem with our acquisition of Neople. Even across the Pacific Ocean, Zhou Shi could hear Lei Jun's frustration.

"They don't have the idea of selling?" Zhou Shi

"No," Lei Jun said with difficulty

"Have we been cut off by others? Or do they not sell to the Chinese?" Zhou Shi speculated that perhaps it was the inferiority and self-esteem of the Korean people that caused the strange attitudes towards Chinese culture, which often made people laugh.

"We were cut off," Lei Jun

"NEXON or NCsoft?" are the top two companies in the Korean gaming industry.

"No, it's Penguin. "Lei Jun

"Smack!" Zhou Shi hung up, MD. Lei Jun is too unreliable, Zhou Shi has warned him several times and asked him to buy Neople, he is good, not the same thing, he was actually cut off by the biggest competitor of Friends.com. However, Penguin's thinking is also quite strange, Zhou Shi has always limited the scope of competition, why do they still want to open up the battlefield, not only to fight on social networks, but also to fight in the game. Is the acquisition of Neople a signal for them to start a war? Are they so optimistic about DNF? Or did Zhou Shi let Lei Jun buy it several times, leaked the information, and was known by Penguin, and they wanted to gamble?

Zhou Shi hung up Lei Jun's phone and didn't pick it up again, he was really disappointed. This is the famous Lei Jun, his friend in his previous life, his venture capital has almost spread all over the entire domestic Internet rivers and lakes. Maybe he is still the invisible richest man in China, and such a small thing can go wrong. Could it be that he is not in good shape now, and he still needs to continue to exercise?

He didn't know that Lei Jun called him at this point, and the pain in his heart was no less than that of Zhou Shi, the time system is known as the scale of tens of billions of dollars in China and tens of billions of dollars abroad, as the leader in controlling this giant aircraft carrier, he was actually stabbed by a competitor in the core and key areas of the game company. Not to mention how outsiders criticize him, as far as Lei Jun himself is concerned, this can be regarded as a great shame.

In the following days, Zhou Shi also learned the details of the matter, Penguin Company began to contact them years ago, Penguin CFO Liu Zhiping did not leave Goryeo during the Spring Festival, driven by strict confidentiality and interests, they reached an acquisition agreement with Neople, almost doubled the premium, and acquired Neople as a whole for $260 million. At the same time, he concealed information from Time Games, and when Lei Jun rushed to Goryeo and wanted to discuss the acquisition with them, he learned about the development of things.

In the following days, the matter fermented, and the domestic media also spread the news of the acquisition, and public opinion was in an uproar for a while. People from all walks of life have interpreted the connotation of this, as if a business war broke out in a cluster.

The communication between Lei Jun and Penguin is not smooth, even if he adds money to buy back the copyright of DNF.

Huang Huainan, Yao Xiaoguan and others also rushed to Goryeo, but to no avail.

"Mr. Zhou, I'm afraid it's really not going to work this time, they intend to pay liquidated damages, and they want to take back DNF's agency. Zhou Shi didn't answer Lei Jun's call, so Huang Huainan had to call.

"Negotiate with them for the last time, be tough, buy DNF copyright for 200 million US dollars, and if not, terminate all communication with them within half a year. Zhou Shi paused slightly, "I'll let Shan Wenkang of Galaxy Capital return to the mainland, and you can find Li Lingyun to understand the specific situation after you return to China." This time, we want to let Brother Xiao Ma lose his wife and break his soldiers, they are unkind, don't blame us for being unjust!" Zhou Shi said viciously, as if he had instantly turned into a villain.

It has long been said that the future development of DNF is very large, it is a good game that can last for ten years and prosper for a long time, and Zhou Shi is not without money, how can he not guard against various risks. Although Zhou Shi has many more important things to do when negotiating with Neople to represent the game, it doesn't mean that he has no way to control the risk.

Of course, at the same time as signing the agency contract, Zhou Shi also bought an option to buy all the copyrights of DNF at a price of $100 million from Neople through Samsung Securities within three years, and then continued to cooperate with Samsung Insurance to provide insurance for Galaxy Capital, in the next three years, if this option cannot be exercised, Samsung Insurance will compensate Time Games for the loss of income in the next three years according to the income of Time Games and the growth rate at that time, up to no more than 500 million US dollars, and Zhou Shi spent a total of more than 10 million US dollars for this. Zhou Shi was worried that he couldn't play like this at first, but unfortunately he didn't understand that the essence of financial innovation is for profit, as long as there is interest, any kind of financial innovation can be had. Moreover, Zhou Shi's requirements were strikingly similar to CDS, in the hot market environment at that time, Galaxy Capital completed that operation without any difficulty in opening the way with money.

Samsung is the largest consortium in Goryeo, with their escort, Zhou Shi is not worried at all about the possibility of a large domestic game company in Korea acquiring Neople, but he didn't expect that the company's group of dirt buns may have forgotten this option contract, but so what, it's time for them to know what the power of capital is.

Huang Huainan hung up the phone and talked to Lei Jun and the others about Zhou Shi's request in a suspicious tone.

"When things come to this point, is it possible to save them?" Yao Xiaoguan

"Are there any details of the agency contract we signed with Neople that we didn't pay attention to?"

"Do you want to ask Li Lingyun now?" Huang Huainan

"But......" Although Lei Jun didn't continue, everyone knew that Zhou Shi asked them to ask after returning to China.

"Let's still believe in Zhou Shi! He can't be wrong. Yao Xiaoguan

When Lei Jun heard this, he instinctively wanted to refute, but raised his head, glanced at the crowd around him, and finally didn't say anything.
