Chapter 356: Forced Acquisition (I)
"It's okay, I'll buy Spring Airlines, you can do it! You don't have to worry about the rest, anyway, if you apply for a purchase, there may be some problems that you need to help with. Liu Fei quickly changed the topic, although there is no problem with the establishment of the building, but let Wu Xiansi help!
"Ah, I know, I'm busy now, what about this, I'll talk to you when the charge is due." Wu Xiansi was stunned for a moment, and immediately opened his mouth in surprise, and then hung up the phone.
As soon as he hung up the phone, Wu Xiansi suddenly reacted to Liu Fei's words just now, "Damn! What does this mean? Your sister's! This is going to be bad for our family, but it's innocent! ”
After hanging up the phone, Liu Fei was a little depressed, he couldn't let Li Keqing move in openly! After thinking about it for a while, Liu Fei still left this matter behind him first, and when the time comes, he will find something to do and transfer Wu Xiansi away. Didn't she offer to help? Liu Fei found her something to do.
Forget it, let's go about our own business first. Next, Liu Fei has to complete that task first, but to complete that task, the first giant is to get Blizzard first, EA Liu Fei can not care, after all, EA's main energy is now put on stand-alone games, and he is not interested in online games for the time being.
However, Liu Fei's main game now is the network game, let's get this done first, anyway, one of the aspects is a monopoly, isn't it a monopoly?
Liu Fei waited for four hours in Mingzhu City, and then finally waited for his first private jet, although the acquisition of Spring Airlines was still in contact, and all the things were handed over to ICBC to deal with, but ICBC is now only collecting shares in the market.
The main contact has not yet been carried out, Liu Fei visited his first private jet, the whole plane has been modified by zero, I have to, zero efficiency is absolutely awesome, the transformation of an aircraft is no less than the production of a new one, but the time spent is only three.
The whole aircraft does not show any abnormality from the appearance, but the interior has been completely changed, and now the whole aircraft still uses the fuel system, but its maximum range when fully loaded with fuel exceeds 60,000 kilometers, and it flies around the earth more than once.
When the plane landed at Pearl City International Airport, Obier had already applied for a route from Pearl City to California, and Liu Fei flew directly to California by his own private jet. However, this time Liu Fei did not bring anyone, and the flight attendant on the plane was temporarily replaced by T800.
When Liu Fei landed, Hall had already prepared a convoy to pick up the plane, and Hall had already contacted Kodek's private holding company in advance.
"Mr. Liu, welcome to California." To Liu Fei's slight surprise, Kodek personally came to the airport to pick up Liu Fei.
"Mr. Kodek, I didn't expect you to come." Liu Fei was a little surprised, Liu Fei was really surprised, Kodek's private holding company owns Activision Blizzard's shares, which is converted to Codek privately owning about 23% of Blizzard's shares, another shareholder Brian Kelly owns almost 24% of the shares, and the other shareholders of the investment company own about 8%, of which Tencent owns about 6%, and there are many other large and medium-sized shareholders, and the rest are basically tradable shares.
And when Liu Fei came to Activision Blizzard, Liu Fei actually had quite a lot of shares in his hands, which were purchased by Butterfly from the market, and the rest was that Vivendi probably still owned about 10% of Activision Blizzard's shares. The shares circulating on the stock market account for about 32%, and Liu Fei has now acquired about 19% through the stock market. 6% of the shares.
This has basically reached the limit of absorption, because in this way, all the shares circulating on the stock market have been absorbed.
"Hehe, yes, Mr. Liu's Yi company now has huge fans in Europe and the United States, and many companies around the world want to represent Mr. Liu's name. Especially after we knew that Mr. Liu was actually part of the operation in China. Kodick smiled.
In fact, Kodek didn't know why Liu Fei came, because Liu Fei came here to contact Hall, and when Hall contacted, Kodek thought that Liu Fei came to contact the agent under him, after all, Activision Blizzard did contact the agent under Yi before.
A game with nearly 5.5 million people in China is now basically online, and most importantly, these more than 5 million players are active users, and this user group is still increasing, this is not the limit, such a game, Kodek can not ignore! It is an indisputable fact that World of Warcraft has begun to gradually decline.
Liu Fei followed Kodek to visit the headquarters of Activision and Blizzard, especially Blizzard, yes, this is the no to make games in the minds of countless players. 1. Although Activision and Electronic Arts, that is, EA, have a higher market capitalization in the United States. Whereas Blizzard is more of a private studio.
But Blizzard's image in the minds of many players is difficult to change, around Liu Fei's current mentality is different, but when he entered Blizzard, he was still very excited.
In the evening, Kodek hosted a banquet for Liu Fei to eat, which was regarded as picking up the wind and washing the dust for Liu Fei. "Mr. Kodick, I'm actually here for two main purposes." Liu Fei thought for a while and said.
"Listen up." Kodick smiled.
"I wonder if Mr. Kodek will be able to sell his stake in Activision Blizzard." Liu Fei has always been accustomed to getting straight to the point, and his time is limited, so he is not hypocritical, and speaks directly.
"Huh?" When Kodick heard Liu Fei's words, he was directly stunned for a moment, and he didn't expect that Liu Fei would actually come because of this incident.
"Mr. Liu, you mean, you're going to buy Activision?" Kodek asked in surprise, only to find out that Liu Fei was not here to cooperate with Activision at all, or that Liu Fei was not here for the authority of the agent at all.
"Yes, I want to buy Activision." Liu Fei nodded very dryly.
"I'm sorry, I probably won't make a move." Kodek was silent for a moment, and then he said decisively, although he has his own private investment company, Kodek has been doing games for most of his life, and he really doesn't know what to do all of a sudden.
"Mr. Kodek has about 23% of Activision Blizzard's shares, and the current market value of Activision Blizzard is about $15.8 billion, that is, Mr. Kodek, the market value in your hand is about 36. About $500 million, am I right? Liu Fei said decisively.
"Nope." Cordic shook his head.
"$4 billion." Liu Fei directly opened his mouth and quoted the first price.
Kodek shook his head, Liu Fei's price can only be a suitable price, negotiating 11%. Liu Fei smiled, he just made an opening statement, to be honest, Liu Fei never felt that it was impossible to spend money in zero tasks, for European and American countries, a company, as long as the price is right, the shareholders of these companies will take action.
Because for European and American countries, the major shareholders of some companies are basically investment companies, that is, those venture capital companies, as long as there are appropriate profits, they will not hold any company, even a company like Apple.
"5 billion." Liu Fei opened his mouth and reported another number, if the number just now made Kodek shake his head slightly, this number, Kodek directly opened his mouth wide.
US$5 billion...... That's already close to 40 percent premium! "Mr. Liu, why are you doing this?" Kodic asked, a little surprised, his tone not so firm anymore.
"Does Mr. Cordic know why I bought Yi?" Liu Fei didn't answer, but asked with a smile.
"I've heard a little about this, it seems that Mr. Liu is a player of Easy Games?" Naturally, Kodek has not heard such a story, and it is a game company with a market value similar to Activision Blizzard, which is naturally worth paying attention to. Not to mention that they are still peers, how can Kodek ignore it, and Yi Huan and Activision are partners, and there are subsidiaries jointly established by both parties.
"So, in the same way, I'm also the king of Blizzard games, Frozen Throne, Warcraft, Diablo, StarCraft I've all played, and although I didn't dare to play these games to grow up, I have played all of them." Liu Fei said with a smile.
Kodic's mouth opened wide in astonishment, and it took him a long time before he asked, "That's it?" ”
"That's it, what else else?" Liu Fei shrugged his shoulders and looked at Kodick with a smile.
Kodek has been for a long time, his mouth can't be closed, he looks at Liu Fei with strange eyes, to be honest, Kodek is not the first time to hear this, but Kodek has heard this kind of thing many times, but in Kodek's opinion, this is simply the media sensationalism, in a person like Kodek, Liu Fei's thoughts are simply incomprehensible.
How can Nima have a person who wants to buy a game development company just because he is a game-oriented player? What kind of logic is this? How did this divine logic come about? But Liu Fei just sat here alive, and he broke out a price that he couldn't refuse.
"Mr. Liu, you're not kidding me, are you?" Kodek looked at Liu Fei a little speechless and asked.
"Do you think I flew tens of thousands of kilometers just to amuse you? $5 billion, 23% of Activision Blizzard's shares. What do you think? Liu Fei asked with a smile.
