Li Mo invited a few people to the study upstairs. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 ｉｎｆｏ

First of all, Ruggiero reported to Li Mo on behalf of Yibao and two subsidiaries.

Yibao is still developing the mini-games provided by Li Mo, because these mini-games do not require much technology, not only for the game card technology, but also for the IB hardware technology. For example, many large-scale games nowadays, whether it is a game card or an IB machine, cannot be realized.

In addition, these mini-games are also relatively popular.

There are still not many games on the IB platform, and Nintendo has joined forces with companies like Sega to secretly form an agreement, and if any downstream game company joins Yibao, it will immediately be kicked out of all the platforms of these major game companies.

Therefore, until now, there are still not many types of games in Yibao.

It is also the reason why Li Mo wants to buy Jiafukang, one is to increase the variety of games, and the other is to promote the game to the arcade, and the arcade has no way to use the platform to limit, and the arcade can be popular for a few years.

Around the end of the year, Yibao will be able to bring these mini-games provided by Li Mo to the market together.

If you don't care about it in the future, these games can still be upgraded, and in addition, Yibao is also developing its own mini-games.

Overall, the lack of game types has indeed hindered Yibao's further development.

Ruggiero said happily: "Fortunately, with the pull of Tetris, otherwise Yibao would not have developed to the height it is today." ”

Li Mo nodded.

In fact, Tetris is in the hands of Yibao, and it has not yet exerted its full power, and it has fallen into the hands of Nintendo, and together with Super Mario, it has pushed Nintendo to the height of 10 billion dollars in market capitalization at once.

But in this life, Nintendo can't imagine having this good dream.

Yibao has also taken out some manpower to develop some large-scale games provided by Li Mo, The King of Fighters 1 has been developed and is being tested, if there are no accidents, it can be launched to the market in the fall.

Then to Square Enix, Final Fantasy 2 was launched into the market, because it was well-funded and strong, and the game was more beautifully crafted and popular with players. Yokoi Junhei estimated that it could become the fist product of Yibao in the future, and he was also deeply impressed by Li Mo's vision.

With plenty of money and manpower, Square Enix is also trying to develop several other games.

In this regard, Li Mo still welcomes it.

Hironobu Sakaguchi said: "Boss, I have an idea, I don't necessarily have to buy Kafuyasu, Fukushima Yasuhiro is also dissatisfied with Nintendo, we can try to contact him." ”

Yasuhiro Fukushima is the owner of Enix Games, and his masterpiece is the famous "Dragon Quest".

But Li Mo grinned.

In his previous life, Square Enix merged with Enix to become one of the top companies in Japan. It's just that Square Enix had grown up at that time, and even so, it seems that Enix, the boss Yasuhiro Fukushima, still occupies the most shares in the new company.

It's not easy to buy the company, and the point is that they're now profitable, although they may be unhappy with Nintendo's aggressiveness. However, if Yibao wants to buy them, it will inevitably pay a high price, and the other party will also make various demands, including a request to retain shares.

Of course, if it is acquired, not to mention "Dragon Quest", Enix has several other best-selling games, which will make the game platform of the IB machine fuller, and at the same time take away "Dragon Quest", which is equivalent to taking away a pillar game of Nintendo. Why acquisitions, quickly make themselves stronger, nip possible competitors in the bud, weaken competitors. Therefore, if the acquisition can be successful, it will be beneficial to Yibao and will not do any harm.

And this company is also full of talents, such as Yuji Tsuii, Koichi Sukiyama, and Akira Toriyama.

Li Mo said, "Mr. Sakaguchi, you can send someone to contact them." ”

With the arrival of Namco.

In addition to the launch of Tank Wars 2, Namco is also developing games such as Three Kingdoms 2.

But in general, Yokoi Junhei, Sakaguchi Hironobu, and Iwatani Toru are all technical men, and any executive wants the boss to give them power, but Li Mozhen has given power, and with the growth of the company, Yokoi Junhei feels more and more powerless.

Later, when he arrived at Katobeyasu, first Sakaguchi Hironobu sent people to contact Kenzo Tsujimoto, and then Yokoi Junhei sent people to contact him.

Kenzo Tsujimoto did not reject the takeover, but he proposed three very unreasonable acquisition proposals.

Yibao invested a billion dollars, and he handed over all of Jiafukang's games and technology and various industries to Yibao, but allowed him to take Yoshiki Okamoto and others away.

Yibao invested US$600 million, and Kenzo Tsuji handed over 60% of Jiafukang's shares to Yibao to take control, but he must be allowed to retain 40% of Jiafukang's shares with other shareholders, and Jiafukang must continue to be operated by him, and Yibao can negotiate with Jiafukang on the integration of resources, but must not interfere with Jiafukang's operation.

He can hand over Jiafukang, but he must own 30% of Yibao's shares.

"Thirty percent of Yibao's shares?" Li Mo was happy.

He thought for a while and said: "Although Jiafukang is now in a low period, if you want to acquire, you have to pay a premium." ”

Several people nodded together.

The success of the acquisition will help Yibao a lot.

Besides, people are only in a low period, and they are not really operating at a loss.

However, Li Mo said: "However, it is different from the establishment of Yibao, at that time, the acquisition of Namco was extremely important and strategically important to Yibao, so I almost bought Namco at double the price." The acquisition of Jiafukang will be of great help to Yibao, but it is not as urgent as the acquisition of Namco in the first place. It can be premium, and the premium scale shall not exceed 25%. ”

Jeffman has sent people to evaluate Jiafukang several times, believing that its market value is about 500 million to 600 million US dollars, that is, the upper limit of the acquisition cannot exceed 750 million.

Li Mo thought for a while and said, "Well, tell him directly, if he sells all his shares to Yibao and is not allowed to enter the game industry for three years, we can give him $700 million." He will continue to stay in Jiafukang, and the treatment will be the same as yours. The second method is to agree that he and other shareholders will retain 40% of the shares, and also agree that in addition to resource integration, as long as there is no conflict with each other, Yibao will allow him to have the right to operate independently, but we Yibao will invest a maximum of 400 million US dollars, and we will not agree to add a child. ”

"I'm afraid he won't say yes. ”

"It's okay if you don't agree, you can contact Yoshiki Okamoto, Tokuro Fujiwara, and Noritaka Funamizu, promise to give them more rewards, and poach the three of them. ”

No matter how much you promise to be paid, you can't dig it up.

However, at the moment, Li Mo has made a lot of money in the Japanese financial market, and it is the time when the limelight is in full swing, as long as Yibao poachs people, Kenzo Tsujimoto will inevitably feel nervous. And at this time, Jiafukang is in the situation where SNK and Nintendo are jointly attacking, and the future of the arcade is unclear.

What Li Mo didn't know was that Jiafukang's "Street Fighter 2" was released the year after that, and then its benefits soared, making a profit of 15 billion yen (120 million U.S. dollars) that year alone, and by that time, its market value would exceed one billion U.S. dollars, if not at a premium. Later, Katobekang went public in '93, which became more and more out of control, and in '02, Kenzo Tsujimoto was promoted to the president of the Japan Computer Industry Association (CESA).

Li Mo is not clear about this history, but it is clear, the future is the future, and the present is the present.

However, Li Mo thought about it for a while and became interested in this person.

"Mr. Yokoi, if you are asked to resign from the position of CEO of Yibao and serve as the head of the technology department, of course, all the treatment will not be less, will you feel wronged?"

"No," Yokoi replied without thinking, in fact, as the stall grew larger, he was unable to do it, and he became the head of the technology department in the company, but this technical department is different from him at Nintendo, which is divided into the first technology department and the second technology department...... Therefore, he served as the head of the first technology department is only one of the ministers, and Li Mo did not set up the first department and the second department, so the importance of this technology department in the company is still only below the CEO, above CEO Smith and sales president Ruggiero.

But he hesitated and asked, "Boss, who is suitable to be the new CEO of the company?"

"How is Kenzo Tsujimoto?"

"The three advantages of Tsujimoto Kensan are that he knows people and makes good use of them, and his management ability is relatively strong, but the disadvantage is that he admits death and has a small amount of tools. ”

"This shortcoming is tolerable, and you can tell him that there is another acquisition plan, which is that he only needs to sell all of Jiafukang to Yibao and allow him to be the second CEO of Yibao, and the treatment will be the same as that of Mr. Yokoi. If the share dividend does not satisfy him, there is a solution that allows him and other shareholders to own 2% of Yibao in addition to the share dividend, but Jiafukang can only sell it to Yibao for a market value of $600 million. ”

"The second option, he will never agree. Yokoi said.

According to Li Mo's algorithm, isn't Yibao's market value now reaching more than $5 billion?

Even if the upward momentum of cheap treasure is very strong, it is unlikely to reach 5 billion US dollars.

"It seems like this, but if he is suspicious, you can ask him, what will happen to me in the end with so many funds in the United States? ”

Nintendo reached $10 billion a few years after the previous life, becoming the only hegemon in the gaming business.

But they slackened, and as a result, they were overtaken by Sony, the United States Electronic Arts, Blizzard two kills, and various Chinese game companies, especially Da Tengxun three kills.

Of course, Apple, Microsoft, Tencent, Sony, the game industry is not the main business.

But among the purebred game companies, Nintendo is also behind Blizzard, only comparable to Electronic Arts, and the gap between the remaining purebred game industry has widened significantly, Li Mo remembers that the market value of these three companies has reached more than 20 billion US dollars and more than 30 billion respectively, but the rest, including Namco, Square Enix, and other companies in China, also include China's Shanda, Perfect Time and Space and other companies, with market capitalizations hovering between more than 400 billion and more than 1 billion US dollars. It seems that the market value of this Jiafukang is the same, it can be close to three billion when it is high, and only more than one billion when it is low.

Specifically, Li Mo remembers clearly, about the end of the new century, Kenzo Tsujimoto abdicated, coupled with the fact that Japan is in a period of economic recession, the development of Jiafukang is not very good, otherwise with its current foundation, it can at least be located above Namco.

But now, Li Mo has withdrawn Yokoi Junping talents, and has withdrawn games such as Tetris and Pokemon, and Nintendo has declined, and I believe it will be faster.

Even Sony, who summoned a few people today, is preparing to suppress the rise of Sony Games in the future.

The hardest thing was the eighties, he remembered very little, which was equivalent to moving forward in the dark.

The further he goes, the more Li Mo remembers, which also means that the victory in this war with Nintendo is getting bigger and bigger.

Besides, what is Blizzard, Li Mo also plans to acquire it soon.

If this development continues, what will be the market value of Yibao in the new century?

There is another one, Li Mo didn't remember either.

Nintendo's current market capitalization is only a few billion dollars, and some time ago, several funds of Li Mo also bought Nintendo's shares at one time.

Although its market value is not high, its profitability is very good, and the perennial profitability rate has reached more than 20%, that is, the stock price has a lot of gold.

However, after entering the new century, Nintendo's stock price has been rising, but the company has become more and more bloated, and the profitability has become lower and lower.

That is, although the market value is high, the gold content of the stock is getting lower and lower, and the market value is also very inflated.

Patrick Smith laughed: "Yes, with the boss here, what kind of future will Yibao have? 2% of the shares, which is already a lot." ”

"Let's do this acquisition in a multi-pronged way. As for Enix, first focus on Jiafukang, and after taking Jiafukang, then contact Enix. ”

But for this acquisition, Li Mo is not ready to use the cash in his hand, Yibao still has a little cash, and the rest of the loan. Therefore, Li Mo made a joke with Secretary Tie, I am a billionaire and a billionaire. However, with the current momentum of Yibao's development, even if it takes out a loan, it can be repaid within two years. If you take Enix, you will definitely not be able to repay the loan in two years.

However, as the company grows and its performance comes up, it will repay the loan faster.

Speaking about the acquisition, Li Mo also talked about the future development.

"I'll say two now. First, I acquired TSMC and Asus, which are mainly engaged in semiconductors and other electronic component products, and soon most of the companies will move to the Xiangjiang Development Zone, and under my instructions, they have done research and development on the electronic components of related game consoles, and now basically all the electronic components for games, they can produce. ”

Once TSMC and ASUS can produce all relevant electronic components and place their production bases in the development zone, they will inevitably hire mainland workers, and the cost of each electronic component will drop rapidly just because of the labor cost.

There are also customs duties.

At present, more than eighty percent of electronic components are purchased from abroad and then shipped to Modu for assembly. Tariffs are also paid in Xiangjiang, but the tariffs are much less, and transportation costs are also saved. Of course, in the future, the labor cost of the development zone will inevitably rise, but at that time, the policy of the mainland has long been opened, and the production base can be directly transferred to the mainland, and the development zone can only retain a research and development center. And the production base does not need to move far, who is the best electronic products in the world in the future, only Tianfutian Huaqiangbei.

Don't underestimate the cottage base of this electronic product, there are a lot of talented people in it, and even Apple can't solve the problem, Huaqiangbei 123 will solve it.

However, this is not what Li Mo said, he continued: "This means that the cost of both the game cartridge and the IB machine will go down, so when the Yibao King of Fighters game is launched, the price of the IB machine can be reduced by 25% to seize this market." ”

If you want to sell more cartridges for each game, you have to sell more for IB machines.

That is, to use the cost advantage to rush Nintendo.

Although Nintendo can also move its production base to China, there will be no difference between home and away...... Foreigners are uncles in China, and it's like Li Mo making a little money in the United States and racking his brains.

But when Nintendo first arrived, his eyes were black.

It is also impossible to have many skilled workers right away.

By the time they hit the road, they missed at least another year or two. In this technological age, a difference of one or two years would be a fatal difference.

This trick is not fatal, and the next thing is the nightmare of Sony and Nintendo.
