Chapter 1742 - Target Korean Online Game First Brother
Chapter 1742 Target: Brother Yi of Korean Online Games, Let's Do It!--Lin Feng gave an order, and Soros immediately transformed into the financial predator who once dominated the financial market.
This time, Soros is targeting a total of seven companies, "Ubisoft", "Rockstar", "Qianyou", "Eders Interactive", "Impei", "THQ", and "NC-SOFT". Among the seven companies, one is a French company, four are American companies, one is a British company, and one is a Korean company.
If Soros wants to deal with them, he naturally picks the weakest one first, that is, the South Korean company "NC-SOFT".
NC-SOFT, one of the most famous online game companies in South Korea, is best known for its masterpiece "Paradise". For the first time, an online game broke through 100,000 simultaneous online users. Before Lin Feng's rebirth, "nc-soft" was very popular for a while with "Paradise". At that time, although "Lineage" was not popular in China, it was very famous in Europe, and it was also considered to be one of the top games on the charts, and there were many players. Especially in South Korea, Lineage is one of the best games.
It can be said that the development process of "nc-soft" is the development process of Korean online games. It is never an exaggeration to call it the first brother of Korean online games.
However, in this life, due to the rise of the "second shijie", a large number of markets have been stolen, and the corporate performance of the "nc-soft" company has also declined significantly, and now the assets are only more than 70 million US dollars. For Soros, who has $7 billion in funds and controllable CAO control, it couldn't be easier to defeat "NC-SOFT". But Soros is really not interested in such a simple game. He wanted more!
More!
Soros struck.
After the 97 Asian financial crisis, South Korea's economy is gradually recovering slowly. However, it will take some time to restore the pre-Asian financial crisis situation. And at this time, suddenly news came from the industry - Soros is back.
Is Soros back?---This news was like a thunderclap on the ground, which made the outside world panic.
For Soros, the whole of Asia is changing. The tragic scenes of that year instantly returned to my eyes, thinking of the tragic situation when the country was almost ruined, and the victimized countries were all apprehensive.
Soros must not be allowed to succeed again! -- This is the voice of various Asian countries. At the moment, however, there are about $7 trillion in international capital in circulation. Once the $7 trillion in liquid capital is concentrated to attack a certain country, even the United States will not be able to bear it. Of course, it is impossible to bring together $7 trillion in liquid international capital. However, as long as a little bit of them come to Asia to attack a certain country, it is enough to cause financial damage to that country.
The first thing that can be done is to ensure that there are no leaks in the country's financial system, and if there is no opportunity to take advantage of it, then international capital will not be able to impact the country's financial system. This is also the fundamental reason why Soros swept through Asia but did not touch Chinese mainland at all.
It's just that which country does Soros want to attack? -- the outside world is full of speculation.
South Korea! -- This is information obtained through unofficial sources. Soros will take the lead in attacking South Korea this time and take South Korea as a knife!
For this piece of information, the South Korean official did not carefully confirm it, because there was no time. Regardless of whether this news is true or not, and whether Soros wants to take advantage of South Korea, for the South Korean government, it is better to believe it than not to believe it. Otherwise, if it is true, if they are not prepared, won't they once again let Soros, a damn financial moth, suck up the hard-earned money of the South Korean people!
However, what makes the South Korean government depressed is that although they got the news in advance this time, it seems that they have nothing to do. South Korea feels as if it is like a prostitute, waiting for Soros's arrival. The difference is only in the price Soros pays.
Affected by the news that Soros is about to attack South Korea, the South Korean stock market fell in response. There is no way, in the face of Soros, a financial giant, whether it is ordinary South Korean people or investment institutions, they are afraid that they will be affected by this. Especially those investment institutions, they don't have the same patriotic complex as ordinary South Korean people, and they only care about one thing, that is, making money! Being able to catch the Soros bus, even if it is just a little soup, is enough to make them grow a few laps.
Under such circumstances, it would be strange if the Korean stock market did not fall.
"Boss, 'nc-soft' is here soon!" Soros smirked.
He let out a little rumor, and the South Korean stock market fell. This kind of style doesn't even have Lin Feng. Only he, Soros, can have such a style. Just a little rumor, a little bit of news, is enough to send the South Korean stock market down. Of course, this is also in Asia, and if it were on other continents, Soros's "face" would not be so big. Only those Asian countries that are deeply poisoned by Soros will hear the tiger and be afraid of Soros.
Lin Feng shrugged helplessly. These countries in Asia are frightened by Soros.
"Alright, let's do it. I don't care what you're doing, anyway, 'nc-soft' must be long. Lin Feng ordered.
"NC-SOFT" is the first brother in the Korean online game industry, and the acquisition of "NC-SOFT" is very beneficial for the "second shijie" to occupy the Korean market, and at the same time, it can also gradually dismantle the "GM13" alliance through "NC-SOFT". Lin Feng had the ability to acquire "nc-soft" before, but he always felt that it was unnecessary. With the strength of the "second shijie", as long as it takes a little more time, it will be able to occupy the Korean market.
Now that "NC-SOFT" has joined the "GM13" organization, and it just so happens that Lin Feng and "GM13" are not on the right path, there is a reason to acquire.
"Don't worry, boss, solve 'nc-soft' in minutes!" Soros shrugged indifferently.
Immediately, Soros began to invade South Korea on a large scale. Of course, the so-called invasion is to put on a show. Soros's "Tiger Fund" began exchanging dollars for South Korean won, and at the same time began to borrow heavily from South Korean banks.
Soros's actions immediately triggered a chain reaction in the South Korean financial market. The South Korean government immediately announced that it would not change the current exchange rate system, and at the same time stipulated that banks must have conclusive collateral for housing loans, and strictly prohibited a series of financial measures such as non-performing loans. This time, the South Korean government is ready for a protracted war with Soros.
The South Korean government's pinch of the loan caused a tragedy for the "NC-SOFT" company.
This time, the "GM13" alliance lost $4.5 billion because of the disk protection, although "EA", "Nintendo", and "Ubisoft" recognized 75% of them, but the remaining 25% was borne equally by the remaining 10 companies. As a member of the alliance, "nc-soft" will naturally have to bear $112.5 million. Of course, this transfer of "Legend of the Galactic Heroes" made $500 million. However, the 13 companies divided it equally, and each company shared $38 million. (This is also the reason why all the companies in the "GM13" alliance are willing to help "Nintendo", "Ubisoft", and "EA" protect the disk this time, and make money!)
After deducting the 38 million, there is still $74.5 million left. This amount of money is not a xiao number for any company. Especially for "nc-soft", it is an astronomical amount enough to bankrupt the company, which is just over their company market capitalization. Of course, everyone is part of the "GM13" alliance, whether it is "Microsoft" or "Sony", and they are more than happy to help other members through this difficult time. However, their condition is to buy a 51% stake in "nc-soft" for $50 million.
Originally, the market value of "nc-soft" was about $70 million, and "Sony" paid $50 million to acquire 51% of its shares, which is quite favorable. But "nc-soft" does not want to allow the company to be annexed by "Sony". Especially in the relations between South Korea and Japan, this kind of thing cannot happen. Therefore, "NC-SOFT" is ready to settle this loan with the future profits of Lineage 3 and the profits of Harry Bot Online, which the "GM13" alliance is ready to develop, as collateral.
Originally, "NC-SOFT" calculated the haode, repaid the loan, and used the remaining money to develop Lineage 3, and then strive to launch it in Europe and South Korea ahead of schedule. Although there is now a "shijie war" is popular, but the two sides are not in conflict, not to mention that the "shijie war" players have been for several days, and they have not been able to form a tribe, and the "second shijie" does not modify the rules, which means that when the player's resistance to xing arrives, the negotiation will collapse.
But who would have expected that at this time, Soros would suddenly enter South Korea, and the South Korean government would be like a frightened bird, and before "nc-soft" could react, a series of financial orders were announced. As a result, the loan of "nc-soft" was stuck. This one is stuck, and "nc-soft" is a tragedy. If the debt cannot be repaid when due, according to the previous agreement signed by the alliance, other companies in the alliance are qualified and able to help it solve the difficulties. If the beneficiary is unable to repay the beneficiary debt, the company's assets will be automatically pledged.
For this agreement, "nc-soft" did not feel inappropriate before. He didn't think the company would be in debt, and he didn't think that with the strength of the alliance, there would be huge losses. As a result, not only did they lose money, but they were also stuck with money.
What should we do now? Is it really going to be acquired by the "Sony" company? -- President Jin Zechen has a headache on his face.
At this time, Lin Feng arrived at the company of "nc-soft".
