Chapter 1059 Viagra is a Conscience (Part I)

What to say about the storm of StarCraft, although it is only in China with game equipment, but the impact is quite huge, the first is because reporters from various countries have been to play, and the second is the players from those countries, these players are indeed rich people, ordinary people have no way to come to China, but these people came to China casually, and they came to China to go to an Internet café and play games...... Speaking of which, this may seem a little strange to everyone.

But this is a fact, there are really a lot of crazy people playing games, this is not something unimaginable, so StarCraft has caused a lot of storms in the world, it is really because the type of StarCraft game is too amazing, even Yang Yiwei didn't expect that he just wanted to get a training space fighter pilot, or a battleship pilot or even a mecha operator that the next StarCraft version will launch.

Who knew that Lu Dao caused such a sensation, and even the political time of various countries was suppressed for a time, but these situations naturally developed in the direction of good Lu, when StarCraft was in operation for a month, the protests of players from various countries were becoming more and more serious, and the most important thing was that there were really local tyrant players, in order to let themselves play the game, they directly contacted Starfall Group, and they were willing to invest in the construction of StarCraft games in their country.

When he first heard the news, Yang Yiwei was a little speechless, you really can't understand the world of the local tyrants in the world, but think about it carefully, this is nothing, not to mention that this investment will not fail, look at the game equipment that China has not rested since the beginning of business, even if such a game bar appears in Europe and the United States, it will definitely not be too bad, since you can recover your investment, and you can play it yourself. Then it is easy to have spare money to invest.

Of course, Yang Yiwei didn't do nothing in this month's time, first of all, Xingshen Group first signed hardware production agreements with a total of 17 companies, these 17 companies are all over the world, of course, there are also domestic companies, Yang Yiwei authorized them to produce game equipment, and even this also includes AMD's competitor Intel, a subsidiary of Xingshen Group.

Situations like this are not uncommon in the business world, such as two companies under an investor fighting for the market can often be seen, so Yang Yiwei doesn't care about this, you can't make all the money alone. And such a thing is conducive to increasing the competitiveness of AMD Group, besides, Yang Yiwei is ready to reduce his stake in AMD.

Even after the robot joins in, Yang Yiwei's controlling stake is estimated to be reduced to less than 50 percent, and it would be good to retain 40 percent of the shares. But even so, it is definitely the largest shareholder in the AMD group. In addition to the fact that Xingnuo Communications will maintain a controlling stake. The other spin-off listed subsidiaries will all reduce their controlling stake to 30%.

The rest of the shares will be transferred to the robot or sold, in the past month, AMD's shares were the first to begin to dilut, when the news came out, it can be said that it really caused a lot of uproar, and even caused a decline in AMD's stock for a time.

However, most of ADM's stock is now in the hands of a few people. Although the stock price is stable, the trading volume is not high, and now the Star Fall Group does not control the stock but makes AMD's stock fall, in the eyes of European and American countries. This is a very unimaginable thing, but think about it, AMD's current situation is so good, and Starfall Group suddenly stopped controlling it, is this because AMD is not worth the investment of Starfall Group?

But Yang Yiwei doesn't care about such a thing, but although the stock has fallen, it is not ambiguous at all for several robots to use the funds in their hands to acquire, basically AMD's company, and the shares that Xingshen Group gave up were basically acquired by those robots. After the acquisition, Yang Yiwei still clarified, so that the Star Fall Group issued an announcement, the Star Fall Group will withdraw funds to increase investment in the Star Fall Bank under the Star Fall Group, expand the business of the Star Fall Bank, and will continue to acquire the shares of ICBC, and the Star Fall Group will increase investment in China's domestic infrastructure, especially the large-scale construction of highways.

This news is a bit inexplicable to the outside world, who will invest in industry if there is money in these years? Especially the basic industry, which occupies a huge amount of capital, the recovery income is slow, and the most important thing is to build roads, which should have been a matter of the government.

They don't know what Yang Yiwei thinks, but they want to have other cooperation between Xingshen Group and the Chinese government, these doubts are doubts, and no one can point fingers at Xingshen Group, but although Xingshen Group says that it does not have absolute control over these companies, its shares are also maintained at 30%, and they do not continue to reduce the proportion, so everyone is relieved.

Some European and American consortia immediately became interested, because they all knew that these companies under the Starfall Group had new technologies, and if they bought the shares in them, there was no doubt that they would be able to share in the benefits.

A month after the release of the StarCraft game, Starfall Group officially announced a new news, first of all, Starfall Group authorized the game warehouse to several companies to produce, but after these companies produce, those who intend to buy game warehouses to open a game bar must sign a relevant cooperation agreement with Starfall Games, this is a must, you don't sign the agreement, you open a Mao game, if you can't play.

Don't underestimate the business of this game warehouse, there is still a big gap in the Chinese market, and after Yang Yiwei's authorization, it means that the production cost will fall, and the selling price is estimated to be reduced by at least half, and European and American countries are not about 100,000 US dollars to produce, but how many game warehouses in the world can be satisfied? At present, it is estimated that this market will reach at least hundreds of millions of game warehouses.

According to 100 million units, this is a full 10 trillion US dollars market, although the number of 100 million units may not be reached in a few years, and the game warehouse running at the same time may only be tens of millions, but this is still a huge new industrial chain.

Secondly, Starfall Games officially announced that it will invest $200 million in the world's global e-sports league to invest in StarCraft games, with $200 million in bonuses including subsidies for some teams, as well as the most popular bonuses, $200 million a year This news is like a direct injection of stimulants to players in the world.

The rise of e-sports is not a year or two, it can be said that since 2000, the word e-sports has gradually appeared in people's sight, but the development of the e-sports industry is actually extremely worried, whether it is domestic or foreign, only one country can be regarded as expanding the industry in this area, this is South Korea, but the whole country of South Korea is only the size of a palm, and the influence is too small.

Although European and American countries also have development, the development of the e-sports industry of European and American players is only a little higher than that of China, the reason is that no one is willing to invest, and when this industry cannot form an industrial chain, it will naturally not be able to grow. What is the industrial chain? UEFA Champions League, Football League, Are those football clubs just because of those tens of millions of dollars in prize money? Don't be funny, a superstar player's transfer is worth more than tens of millions of dollars.

For example, the Champions League bonus is only valued by those small and medium-sized clubs, those giants don't care about that bonus at all, they value the peripheral market, TV rights, star jerseys, brands, venues and so on a series of peripheral sales, etc., but e-sports has not done enough in this regard.

And Yang Yiwei is now going to create StarCraft such a series, although I dare not say that it is compared with football, but Yang Yiwei believes that with the advent of the interstellar era, this will definitely become more and more deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, and the development of e-sports is very slow? In fact, it can't be said that no one is invested, but because of another point, that is, the current mainstream society does not go to watch e-sports, they are fans, they are all kinds of fans, but they are not game fans.

Especially now when the post-70s and post-60s generations are still the mainstream of society, when the post-80s generation has become the mainstream of the whole society, at that time, the development of the Internet, e-sports will usher in a new peak, Yang Yiwei is nothing more than to advance this game. 200 million US dollars a year, Yang Yiwei is still rising, why use so much money? Besides, Yang Yiwei now has two planets in his hands, $200 million...... For Yang Yiwei, it is a drop in the bucket.

$200 million! Although it is a competition in the world, but the reward for the champion is definitely a terrifying number, the largest e-sports event in the world before is LOL, the global event of this game is only a few million dollars, but it has caused a huge response and sensation, and now this investment has increased to 200 million US dollars, and because of this incident, Yang Yiwei even made a wish in front of reporters, Yang Yiwei smiled and assured in front of reporters that this 200 million US dollars is just the most basic investment, It is expected that the annual increase in investment will be at least 10%.

In other words, the investment in the second year is at least 220 million US dollars, which is not a small amount, and the investment increases by 10% every year, which is against the rhythm of the sky. This news not only shocked ordinary players, but even those adults in their forties and fifties in China were a little puzzled...... What is this for?

Isn't playing games a plaything? This...... The question is that according to the propaganda of the Starfall Group, if you become a professional player...... If you win the championship, that's at least a few million dollars, right? Millions of dollars, even if you go to college and work, how long do you have to work to earn it? (To be continued......)
