Tang Huan smiled loudly, "I didn't expect that we have been fighting each other for so long, and you can still look up to me so much." ”

"The person who knows you best is often your opponent." Steve. Ross replied as a matter of course.

I have to say that this time Steve. The chips that Ross took out were very attractive to Tang Huan, and it was not unacceptable to spend some extra energy and resources to help Warner solve the trouble of Atari compared to getting VIP qualifications to enter the world-class record market.

You know, since Steve. After Ross took power, it was because he was now severely pitted by the home video game console business that Warner appeared weak. Otherwise, outsiders will hardly find the opportunity to fight the autumn wind, and they really can't miss it in vain.

"I could try to give advice." Tang Huan groaned and said: "As one of the means to stop loss, I believe you have already restructured the assets of Atari." ”

"Warner is spinning off Atari's home video game console and PC business." Steve. Ross replied simply, the reason why he didn't want to say more, Guy had no interest in these non-performing assets at all, which made him depressed with the idea of selling.

"Since it's splitting, then the next step is to find a buyer, no one is stupid, I guess no one wants to take over." Tang Huan, who was unceremoniously, pointed out this point.

Ignore Steve. With Ross's gloomy face, Tang Huan said to himself: "I think this part of the work should be further refined, and the personal computer business should be independent first." Now that the value of personal computers is increasing, it is no longer possible to become vassals. Because that would mean unprofessional. Nor can it cope with the fierce competition. ”

"Arguably. The Atari personal computer, derived from home video game console technology, was developed in a completely upside-down manner, and was useless except for some novelty in peripherals. In particular, the design of those residual anti-electron radiation not only increases the cost, but also makes the product extremely bulky, and it is difficult to please the user. ”

Tang Huan picked up the cup and took a sip, then summed it up leisurely. "In addition, the current PC market has become more and more unfriendly to niche hardware platforms, and it is too far away from Warner's core business to be a strategic investment, and it is worth the loss if it is too deeply involved."

"Then you can ask Fangyuan Computer Company to accept this part of the assets." Steve. Rose hit the snake and demanded on the stick.

Tang Huan shook his head with a smile, "In this way, I will first ask Fangyuan Computer Company to help Atari personal computers transfer to the standard of Fangyuan personal computers, and find a suitable buyer for them in the first quarter of next year." Otherwise, I'll take over. That's all the processing speed can be. It can't be any faster. ”

Steve. Ross approved of the arrangement and instead asked, "What about the home video game console business?" ”

"The North American market has collapsed. Without two years, don't think about making a turnaround. But I'm still optimistic about the future, after all, although home video games can no longer be as gilded with gold and jade as in the past, they are still a very valuable movie peripheral, if you can stand it, just stay up, otherwise, just deal with the hardware platform part of it, leaving only the game software development and the unaffected arcade business, which is also profitable. Other than that, I don't have a good idea. Tang Huan shrugged.

Steve. Rose looked at Tang Huan's expression, and saw that he didn't look like a fake, he couldn't help but be a little disappointed, he just couldn't stand it, so he came to find Tang Huan with all his might.

Or, really a strong man broke his wrist and completely shut down this part of the business? But Tang Huan, a cunning guy, won't harbor evil intentions.

……

Steve. The Warner that Ross now controls is called Warner Communications, and in the 1960s and 1970s, between Warner Bros., the original corporate form, Warner Bros., there were several buy-and-sell ownership changes, and even Warner Records changed owners like a marquee.

The origins of Warner Bros. Records can be traced back to 1958 as WarnerBros. Pictures, a division of Warner Bros. Pictures.

Warner Bros. Pictures didn't have a record subsidiary, so one of its contracted actors, Tab Hunter, was Tabe? Hunter recorded and sold for rival ParamountPictures, a subsidiary of Paramount Pictures, DotRecords, and Idea Records.

Seeing that its own golden hen laid eggs in other nests, Warner Bros. Pictures was of course jealous, and at the same time, in order to make a profit in the music industry, Warner Bros. Records was founded.

Since then, after a series of acquisitions, Warner Records has added two major brands, Elektra Records and Atlantic Records, in addition to the original Warner Bros. Records.

Then there was a series of executive struggles for power, including Atlantic Records' attempt to gain more independence, and the survival of the fittest pushed Warner Records to the height of the industry where a bumper harvest is now in sight.

Tang Huan was like a mirror in his heart, missing this juncture, and waiting for Warner Records to shine after Atari Atari, Steve. Ross will definitely not cut his flesh if he dies.

So in and Steve. After Ross reached an agreement, Tang Huan hurriedly asked Andy? Albert took the Yanle Entertainment Group to take over the interest, and then issued a statement that the Warner shares in his hands had returned to Steve. Ross is in his hands, and those of you who have thoughts about Warner can rest.

For this reason, the tycoons who hide in the shadows and strategize, hate the itch of teeth - well, wow, in the end we become the guys who run errands and shout, and you become the boss who pinches all the benefits in your hands.

Tang Huan can't control so much, with the right to speak in a world-class record company and the influence of Hollywood, he can add an insurance policy for commercial interests to the standard competition of digital audio and digital video.

And the research results of MPEG can also find an opportunity to show off.
