Chapter 51: It's time for DreamWorks to venture into new business
Compared with the United States, Oranges' development in RB is relatively fast, with the help of Son Masayoshi, Oranges already has 5 directly operated stores in RB, although the scale of direct stores is not as large as in the United States, but the cost of the store is relatively small. The Oranges I computer is also more popular in RB.
RB is a very closed market, all foreign companies that want to enter the RB market, must cooperate with local enterprises, shares 5:5 split, but allow five years later, foreign companies can fully acquire the remaining shares, but there is a condition that the technology must be left.
Li Yixuan has just received news from RB that, like the original history, Son's SoftBank received investments from Toshiba and Fujitsu, but due to the influence of Li Yixuan's butterfly effect, this investment was advanced from 81 to the end of 78.
After getting the news, Li Yixuan discussed with his mother overnight, judging from the information from RB, Li Yixuan believes that it is better to continue to cooperate with Masayoshi Son after the expiration of the shares, whether it is RB DreamWorks or RBOranges, the other half of the company's shares are directly under the name of Masayoshi Son's SoftBank Group, not under the name of SoftBank Trading Company.
In the future, we don't need to worry about Toshiba and Fujitsu eating up our industry in RB, and we can continue to cooperate with Son in the future. After all, the RB market is too closed, and after leaving Son, Li Yixuan cannot guarantee whether the business in RB will be as smooth as it is now.
Masayoshi Son is also a strongman in history, and establishing a strategic partnership with him is only good for ourselves.
But my mother is a little worried, after all, Masayoshi Son has been sent out of the house by Toshiba and Fujitsu in history, and she is worried that after Masayoshi Son leaves, the next one will be ourselves.
Regarding this problem, Li Yixuan is not worried at all. He persuaded his mother, "Due to the influence of our butterfly effect, Masayoshi Son has also become smarter, and instead of putting all his business in one basket, he broke down SoftBank's original business into several subsidiaries, hung them under the SoftBank Group, and then used these subsidiaries to attract investment."
Even if there is a problem in one subsidiary, it will not affect the other subsidiaries, especially the SoftBank Group, which is completely controlled by Son alone. The investment that Son Masayoshi brought in was solicited by the SoftBank Trading Company, and it has nothing to do with his SoftBank Group, nor does it have anything to do with us.
Therefore, the chances of him being cleaned up in the future are slim to none. Even if something goes wrong, it will not be as painful for Son as it was in his previous life, but it will allow him to see clearly who is the real ally and who is the real person who can cooperate for a long time. You must know that in history, Son Masayoshi was left in 1985, and it took only 3 years from Toshiba and Fujitsu to invest in SoftBank in 81.
I don't think it will be long. We only need to prevent one thing from happening, and that is Toshiba and Fujitsu reaching into RB DreamWorks and RBOranges through Masayoshi Son. It is also necessary to prevent Son from selling shares in RB DreamWorks and RBOranges to Toshiba and Fujitsu. ”
Zhang Guifang shook his head when he heard this and said: "This is impossible, the first one we really want to guard against, but the second one doesn't need to worry, as early as when we signed the cooperation agreement with Son Masayoshi, we stipulated in the contract that within five years, he Son Masayoshi has no right to sell our cooperative shares in RB Company." After five years, even if it is to be sold, it must be sold to us, and it is not allowed to sell to a third party without our consent. Therefore, it is impossible for Toshiba and Foxconn to start in this regard. ”
Li Yixuan's mother's words, "Then since this is the case, we must prevent them from starting from somewhere else." Who is in charge of RB now? ”
"Guo Jinghui."
"What background?"
"SH was born, came to Hong Kong with his parents when he was five years old, and then studied in RB, worked in RB Sony for five years, and worked in a local trading company for three years after returning to China, he joined last year, I saw that he was more familiar with RB, so I sent him to RB, because of his outstanding ability, after Son Masayoshi resigned as president, I made him the second president. This person is alert, reliable, and can be trusted.
Also, the other day I sent Billy to RB to help RBOranges set up the information department. I'm not at RB, but I know what happened at RB. ”
Li Yixuan was surprised, "When did you send Billy to RB, is he alone, you must know that he is a robot." ”
Zhang Guifang said: "Of course I won't let him go alone, in fact, he followed me, RB is too important to the company, so I let him stay and set up an information department to collect RB's business and scientific and technological intelligence." ”
Li Yixuan nodded, "Then don't let him come back for the time being, let him stare Toshiba and Foxconn and Son Masayoshi to death in RB, and send news every three days." Masayoshi Son has already invested in these two giant crocodiles, they are not the masters of peace of mind, and they must be closely watched. ”
"By the way," Li Yixuan remembered something again, "Billy has left for the time being, let Jack be in charge of safety, Hong Kong's security will become more and more chaotic in the future, and I can rest assured that Jack is here." ”
"What about you?" Zhang Guifang is also worried about her son's safety.
"I'm buying a robot bodyguard, I've chosen a name, how about calling Leon?"
"You love Resident Evil so much." Seeing Li Yixuan's acquiescence, "Then hurry up and register, don't regret being robbed by someone then." ”
Li Yixuan thinks so, it has been more than three years, and in addition to games, it is time for DreamWorks to develop its own comics or novels, and it will upgrade comics to animation in the future. Now, it's almost time.
However, "Resident Evil" can be put aside for the time being, and there is one thing that must be worked on first.
What is this thing, of course, it is a Transformer, which is something that any reborn person who has traveled to this era will not let go. Whoever gives up is a fool. As long as there is a chance, a super IP like "Transformers" will definitely be on it.
Li Yixuan read a time-traveling novel in another time and space, and the protagonist also traveled to Hong Kong during this period. The protagonist in the novel said that because he had read too many time-traveler novels, he had to engage in "Transformers", so he was tired of it, and felt that he would not do it, and he would do something else, and he wanted to promote "The Legend of Sword and Fairy" to the United States, and later felt that it was unreliable and made a four-wheel drive model of RB Tamiya Company.
Seeing this paragraph, Li Yixuan directly killed this novel. I have never encountered such a two-forced author.
Has this author played "Fairy Sword", do you know what story Fairy Sword tells? It is a typical Chinese culture. Not to mention anything else, just in the game, Lin Yueru put herself in the ring to recruit relatives, Westerners can't understand it, and they don't understand the implicit love concept of Orientals. Such games and comics have been brought to Europe and the United States, and they have been removed from the street or the street.
The cultural industry of games and comics, how to say, is very regional, and games with strong Chinese culture such as "Fairy Sword" have no market in the West at all.
Historically, "Fairy Sword" was also sold in the Confucian cultural circle in Southeast Asia, and it couldn't work outside this region. People who have not been influenced by Chinese culture will never be moved by the story of the game.
As for the four-wheel drive model of the Tamiya company, it is even more ridiculous, Europe and the United States are not interested in this four-wheel drive model at all, and Tamiya has not been promoted in Europe and the United States in history, except for a very small number of Eastern European countries that are a little interested, North America and Western Europe can no longer pounce.
This thing can also become popular in China, even if RB, the birthplace of the four-wheel drive model, has average sales, and it is not as good as it is in the novel. I didn't even understand the situation, so I just bragged about it, and I really took the reader for a fool?
