After taking Google, Today's Capital did not stop the pace of acquisitions, and Smith issued acquisition offers to Lionsgate and Blizzard Entertainment respectively according to Lin Cheng's instructions.

Not to Lin Cheng's surprise, both acquisition offers were rejected by the other party.

Among them, although Lionsgate has just been established, the boss behind it is Canadian banker Frank Gusta, as a banker, naturally there is no shortage of money, after Gusta received Smith's acquisition offer, he threw it into the trash without looking at it.

Blizzard Entertainment is also a tough nut to crack, after a difficult period in the early years, Blizzard Entertainment in 97 has plugged in the wings to take off, "Warcraft 2" has been a huge success, becoming Blizzard's first classic game to sell more than one million.

Now that Blizzard Entertainment has neither shortage of funds nor elite talents, it has stepped into the fast lane of development, so it naturally does not want to make any more extraneous branches, and euphemistically rejected the acquisition of Today's Capital, even if it is a shareholder.

When the news reached China, Lin Cheng had to abandon the acquisition of the two companies, and instructed Smith to buy a company called Williams Film Company and an Edwards Games company instead.

After acquiring these two small companies, Lin Cheng did not make a big move at the first time, but pursued the strategy of building a high wall and accumulating grain, and ordered the CEOs of the two companies to reserve more talents to lay a good foundation for Lin Cheng to enter the American imperialist entertainment market later.

Lin Cheng has always had a huge interest in the entertainment market of American imperialism, and now he has created the movie scripts of "The Matrix" and "Chainsaw", as long as he finds some time, he will shoot these two movies, go to Hollywood of American imperialism, and win the reputation of an international director, so that he can sneak female stars and pretend to be forced in the future.

As for the game company, Lin Cheng originally wanted to win Blizzard Entertainment, after all, the sentence that Blizzard's production must be a boutique is known to everyone in the world, and its "World of Warcraft" is even more popular in the new century, until Riot Games produced "League of Legends", which slightly suppressed the arrogance of Blizzard Entertainment.

Since he can't get Blizzard Entertainment, Lin Cheng can only settle for the next best thing and let Edward Games produce "League of Legends" to compete with the "World of Warcraft" that will be popular in the world in the future.

However, these are still relatively distant things, and today's computer monitors are not yet at the level that can support 2D games like League of Legends, and the acquisition of Edwards Games is just a precaution for technology accumulation.

Lin Cheng is still in China now, and he does not know enough about the situation abroad, and some very profitable businesses will only be taken down when Lin Cheng goes abroad and triggers his memory point.

In fact, if you think about it carefully, Lin Cheng feels that he is more worried, as long as he abides by the law and does not violate the national law and criminal law, he doesn't believe that anyone dares to violate the world's condemnation and blatantly rob his own industry.

If it weren't for the exhaustion of mountains and rivers, Lin Cheng would never be willing to leave the motherland, although the motherland has all kinds of bad, it is also his roots, if he loses his roots, even if he can still live a life of wine abroad, he will not be happy.

……

"Cheng Zai, why don't you sleep so late?" Li Muzhen lay on the bed for a long time and waited for Lin Cheng to come, put on his pajamas and came to Lin Cheng's side, and asked with concern.

Lin Cheng extinguished the cigarette butt and said busily: "It's nothing, I'm just thinking about meeting Zhu Wulin today." ”

Li Muzhen said with a smile: "What's there to think about, our Lin Group has been protected by Governor Zhu, as long as we don't violate the national law and don't make people angry in the future, we will definitely develop bigger and stronger." ”

Lin Cheng shook his head and smiled bitterly: "Born in sorrow and died in peace, I was thinking about what our Lin clan should do after Zhu Wulin retired, without Zhu Wulin's protection, the stronger our Lin clan is, the more people will want to fight our ideas." ”

Li Muzhen said disapprovingly: "The boat will naturally go straight to the bridge, Governor Zhu still has more than three years to retire, even if you want to break your head now, you can't think of a reason, why waste your energy, wash and sleep early."

Since the plan of Binhe New City has been approved by Governor Zhu, we must first build momentum. In addition, you promised Governor Zhu to invest in Foshui, Guancheng, and Pengcheng, and these things cannot be delayed, otherwise Governor Zhu's face will not look good. ”

Lin Cheng nodded and said, "You're right, I'll listen to you." ”

……

After a week, Lin Cheng handed over all the matters of Binhe New Town to his father Lin Furong, and Lin Furong was much clearer than Lin Cheng in the real estate industry.

Zhu Wulin was also very powerful, he asked Lin Cheng for the planning and design drawings and computer renderings of the Binhe New Town, and put forward the opinions on the construction of the Binhe New City at the meeting of the Standing Committee of Eastern Guangdong.

Binhe New Town is undoubtedly of great significance to the improvement of GDP in eastern Guangdong, and the Standing Committee members are not fools, so they can naturally see that this plan is beneficial and harmless, so the Standing Committee unanimously approved Zhu Wulin's proposal.

However, some members of the Standing Committee had some misgivings about the joint development between the government and the Lin Group, and some members of the Standing Committee even proposed to simply take back the 10,000 mu of land sold to the Lin Group at the original price, kicking the Lin Group out of the Binhe New City project.

Fortunately, Zhu Wulin stared at the pressure and sternly refuted this unjust act of crossing the river and demolishing the bridge, as for Comrade Xie Fei, the number one leader of the provincial party committee, he was about to die in two years in the history of his previous life.

Now that Xie Fei's illness has begun to emerge, his mental strength is far inferior to before, as long as he does not have too many differences with Zhu Wulin, he will always support Zhu Wulin's work.

In the end, Xie Fei fully affirmed Zhu Wulin's opinion, believing that the government's credibility was greater than heaven, and the reputation of the government could not be ruined for the sake of petty profits, so he decided to jointly develop Binhe New City with the Lin Group, and made a final decision.

However, although the project of Binhe New Town has been approved and affirmed by the provincial party committee and the provincial government, there are still many inextricable details that need to be improved in the specific details of the operation, and the project is jointly developed by the government and private enterprises, some conceptual differences are inevitable, and the demolition work will not begin until the end of the New Year after two or three months of noisy operation.

Riverside Gardens is a relatively prosperous area, with parks, ponds and a hill, and many new residential buildings around, which is still very difficult for demolition work.

Fortunately, after the Lin Group gave a piece of the pie to the government, the demolition work fell on the government, which saved the Lin Group a lot of trouble.

After Lin Cheng handed over the Binhe New City project, he began to fulfill his promise to Zhu Wulin and embarked on a week-long investment journey, taking a group of heads and brains of branches to Foshui, Guancheng and Pengcheng.
