Chapter 738: Penguin Acquires Shanda (Part I)

An excellent leader should shelter his subordinates, Zhou Shi agreed to Chen Yifan's acquisition request, and wanted to help him. By the way, you can also test whether the richest man in France has any thoughts about him, just a game company, even if it fails, it won't hurt your bones.

Gaming is really an inseparable industry, he doesn't like this industry very much, he always thinks that playing games is easy to make people lose their will, but in awe of wealth and the future, he has always run this business with a grateful attitude. Unlike some bigwigs in the magic capital, who make money from this, in turn, they look down on this industry and think that it is not enough. Zhou Shi's attitude determines the tone of the development of Time Games, most of the people responsible for game development are a group of people who love games, and they still maintain restraint in making money, so the evaluation at home and abroad is still good. From time to time, there are thanksgiving activities, which give back to players and stimulate consumption at the same time.

In science fiction, there is often a virtual online world in the future, and this may not happen. Nowadays, stand-alone machines have basically turned to online games, and the trend of social networking through games is also obvious, and technologies such as virtual reality are becoming more and more mature, and no matter how you look at it, you can turn fantasy into reality. And the profits of the game have been rising, and the vast majority of the profits of the penguins in the previous life were obtained through the game. In such a market with unlimited potential, it is in the process of accumulating strength for it at this time.

In fact, if it weren't for Zhou Shi, Penguin has also begun to internationalize now, everyone knows that Penguin had a lot of money at that time, and there was no place to send it, so they bought a lot of assets overseas, such as Unreal Engine, such as the white knight who acted as Ubisoft. However, the Chinese tycoons do not have a domestic deterrent force overseas, not to mention their internationalization path, compared with the high profits in China, the proportion of Penguin's overseas market revenue is almost negligible.

The current Penguin Games business is mainly focused on leisure entertainment and sports competitions, and the social network is besieging Friends.com with the Happy Network acquired by Facebook, but the general trend of the market is like this, once established, it is difficult for others to flip. However, the vulgarization of Facebook and penguins has given them a lot of room to survive. It is said that Penguin once wanted to buy Kuaibo, but the founder of Kuaibo did not agree.

On the mobile side, Friends.com and Penguin have both launched their own instant messaging tools, and Penguin is also a product of Zhang Xiaolong, called Yixin. Friend.com optimizes MitimeMessage, also known as MM, to focus on competing with QQ. You must know that the MM account can directly view the dynamics of friends on the network, which is not comparable to penguins. At the same time, there are also YY and silent in the market, which can be said to be a mixed battle. With the strategy of bundling mobile phones, WeChat has established an absolute advantage in the early stage even without the diversion of user data from friends. Everything seemed perfect, and the penguins never seemed to be able to fight back. But......

"Mr. Zhou, I heard that Penguin is going to merge with Shanda, and Cheng Tianqiao is going to withdraw from the Internet market!" Lei Jun made a phone call, which made Zhou Shi break out in a cold sweat. MMP, what is this, how can there be such a change!

"Has it already been decided?" Zhou Shi

"Not yet, but there shouldn't be any accidents!"

"Their secrecy is so good?" Zhou Shi

"This, this is our negligence!"

"I'll be right back. Zhou Shi thought about it for a while and immediately made a decision

"Well, okay!" Lei Jun was a little surprised

Zhou Shi also didn't explain that although the impact of the merger between Penguin and Shanda was great, it didn't make him panic. But he always has his own troubles, and it's normal to go back for a walk.

Wang Xirui and Li Ying don't know why, they have been fighting with him all the time, so they can look at the child and talk with him, but what can the child say at this time? But the two women also didn't say anything about breaking up, and perhaps it was clear that Zhou Shi would not agree. After a few times, he didn't have much patience, the key is that he still wants to do a lot, and he always feels that time is running out. How can there be time to consume in these parents and children in the long.

He is not an emotional person, and he will not put his feelings first, since his rebirth, there has always been a mysterious sense of mission that has pushed him forward, and it is this rapid development that has brought him to where he is today. He wanted to stop and rest, but he didn't dare, the napping rabbit would be overtaken by the tortoise. In this white world, he, a Chinese American, is a very conspicuous outlier. Along the way, he had many criticisms in the United States, and of course most of these criticisms were ignored by him. The rapid growth of his wealth, his investment methods, vision, strategic vision, and current philosophical ideas have all impacted this group of Native Americans one by one, and they have finally won their approval. But being different is being different, and those who are not of our race will have different hearts, and everyone knows this truth. The reason why the United States has continued to suppress Chinese Americans for a century is because of the characteristics of Chinese culture, even if they go to a foreign country, it is still indelible. Zhou Shi, a native Chinese, will not be of the same mind as the Americans after all......

There are many external crises, and his internal control is also declining because of his own expansion, so it is not without reason that Friends.com, Guoke, and Starlight are listed. While listed companies bind themselves, they also shackle their management. Under the internal and external troubles, if Zhou Shi, who lacks ability, stops the pace of development, these enterprises are very likely to fall apart, this is not a joke, the fiduciary responsibility of the enterprise gives managers the right to do so, they can even say that in order to be responsible for the society, and then let Zhou Shi suffer heavy losses. There are no examples like Wall Street, and Zhou Shi has always been fully decentralized, and the power of managers is already large, and it is difficult for him to take back the right to release without long-term efforts, after all, China and the United States are not countries controlled by chaebols like South Korea.

For various reasons, Zhou Shi, who thought that he could relax after the end of the subprime mortgage, has been busy. Of course, if he is willing to give up a lot of industries, it may be much easier, but it is difficult to give up good money, human nature.

"The problem must be solved!" Zhou Shi whispered, turned around and got on his private jet and flew straight to Huaxia. His Gulfstream G550 is about to be retired, not because the service life is up, but because the better-performing Gulfstream G650 has come out, and he has already ordered one under the strong recommendation of Gulfstream. But if you really want to get it, you may have to wait until next year!

"What's the problem?" Chen Wen heard Zhou Shi's whisper on the side

"It's nothing, let's go!" Zhou Shi said expressionlessly
