It turned out that Zhiguan Technology had contacted Jin Yong a few months in advance, but Jin Yong did not agree for the time being.

Jin Yong said: "Recently, I have been busy with the affairs of traveling scholars, and I have not had time to investigate them, nor have I agreed to sell the adaptation rights. ”

Yang Yun was overjoyed and said tentatively: "It's better to leave it to our Longteng Company!" We are the world's second largest game production company, with customers in Chinese mainland, Japan, Hong Kong, Macao and Taiwan, North America, Europe, and even countries in Asia, Africa and Latin America. In terms of jishu, we are much stronger than them! ”

Jin Yong laughed: "I know your assistance to Yulang International, and I am also grateful for your contribution to Hong Kong's culture and economy, and it is no problem to hand over the adaptation rights of my fifteen martial arts novels to you, but can you let me finish the matter at hand first, and then talk about it in detail?" ”

Yang Yun can only do this, at least Jin Yong did not refuse Longteng, he still has an advantage in competing with Zhiguan Technology.

"Then I'll wait for news from Master Jin......" Yang Yun got up to say goodbye, and when he left, the ghost envoy said, "If Master Jin's matter is tricky, I am willing to help." ”

Jin Yong stood up to see off the guests, did not speak, and seemed to be still thinking, but just as Yang Yun was about to step out of the threshold, Jin Yong suddenly asked: "I wonder if Xiaoyou is willing to listen to my troublesome words?" ”

Yang Yun was overjoyed, turned back, and patiently listened to Jin Yong's annoyance.

Hearing this, Yang Yun was ecstatic.

Jin Yong is old and has resigned from the post of president of Ming Pao two years ago, and he is unwilling to engage in stressful work anymore. Concentrate on reading books at home and studying Buddhist scriptures. I hope to retire as soon as possible and live a stable and comfortable life.

But he still has one most important thing to be determined. That is his stake in Ming Pao and the choice of Ming Pao's successor.

Jin Yong asked his children if they were willing to take over Ming Pao, but unfortunately their children had their own ideals in life, and they had no interest in literature and no management talents, so he had to look for a suitable successor in the outside world.

In the past six months, Jin Yong has contacted a number of buyers in Hong Kong who are interested in acquiring them, and even the price has been almost negotiated, and the check for 1 billion yuan of Peregrine Regime Company has been prepared, but Jin Yong finally chose to give up the sale. Because he believes that these people do not really love Ming Pao, but only use Ming Pao as a business bargaining chip, and do not understand the true cultural significance of Ming Pao.

The matter of the sale has been dragged on and has not been resolved, and he wants to go to Cambridge University and Oxford University in the United Kingdom as a visiting scholar this year, and has encountered some trivial matters in the formalities, Jin Yong does not have much mind to manage the game adaptation rights of martial arts novels at all.

Good！ Yang Yun had an idea.

At this stage, Longteng Hong Kong Publishing House only has the business of comic production, and the employees are all old employees of Yulang International, as well as the internship team sent by Longteng headquarters, which only cooperates with Tianxia Publishing House. Serialized The King of Fighters' comics, there is no other business.

To put it mildly, it is a waste of manpower, material and financial resources, so there are many projects here that need Yang Yun to make decisions. Whether it is to start a newspaper by yourself, or to invest in other companies, more than a dozen copies of Jihua books have been published!

Ming Pao because of Jin Yong. It has always been a holy place for martial arts novels and has become one of the most influential Chinese newspapers in Hong Kong.

Ming Pao wants to sell. Yang Yun didn't know such important news! He was a little glad that he had one more mouth today. Otherwise, there is a real chance that you will miss it.

If you buy Ming Pao, there is a novel by Huang Yi who is the King of Fighters, and it will be serialized directly on Ming Pao, which is also good for the promotion of the King of Fighters, anyway, it is his own company, and the King of Fighters can also write slowly, and Huang Yi's martial arts series can also be written, just in time to catch up with the window period of martial arts novels.

Yang Yun feels that now that Huang Yi has been recruited, if he has another chance to win Jin Yong, it will almost be enough to be in the martial arts RPG game industry.

As for the game adaptation of several other martial arts novels, there are really not many in real history, martial arts RPG games can't be too widespread, there is a Jin Yong series, and it is enough to have its own Huang Yi series, if Gu Long is willing to sell the copyright, it can be won if the price is right, and Gu Long's Legend also has a lot of fans.

Yang Yun said sincerely: "Master Jin, if you go to Cambridge and Oxford to be a visiting scholar, I can say hello to Longteng Europe and ask them to help you find a way to deal with it."

In addition, the matter of Ming Pao's sale, can you consider our Hong Kong Longteng Publishing House? Although we are a new publishing house, I promise that we will not easily change the existing staff structure of Ming Pao, and will only send accountants and management executives to move in, and will not arbitrarily interfere in the work of the editors, and will continue to develop Ming Pao, carry forward its culture, and make it a century-old newspaper that will be passed on forever! ”

Jin Yong smiled: "If you want, then participate in the competition." At today's Board meeting, I made a statement that the Board of Directors has decided to make this information public, along with some additional terms and conditions, which can be found in the public information. ”

Yang Yun knew that after returning to Hong Kong Longteng Publishing House, he immediately gathered all the staff and contacted the domestic Longteng headquarters, so that Yuan Xinyi and Yang Zhan and others could quickly come to Hong Kong.

The sale and acquisition of Ming Pao did not actually affect the development of Longteng Company too much.

Yang Yun did this, on the one hand, he wanted to take the opportunity to pick up the leaks, and in case of a successful acquisition, he could merge Hong Kong Longteng Publishing House and Ming Pao in one fell swoop, transport martial arts novels to Taiwan and the mainland, and then use games to conquer these markets, and by the way, Ming Pao will become a news media mouthpiece of his own.

On the other hand, he also wants to show favor to Jin Yong, saying that he really loves martial arts and literature, so that he may have a slight upper hand in the competition with Zhiguan Technology.

Closing the door, the core executives had a heated discussion.

Yang Zhan asked first: "Mr. Yang, do you have to do this?" The newspaper industry is not our company's main business, and it does not help our game industry much. And the interlacing is like a mountain, I'm afraid you won't be able to control it in the future. ”

Yang Yun smiled: "I can't control it, of course I will ask someone who knows how to control it, don't worry about this." Let me tell you the reason for this, in fact, I fancy Jin Yong as a person, not his company, as long as he authorizes me to adapt martial arts novels, it doesn't matter if I buy Ming Pao or not. ”

Yuan Xinyi breathed a sigh of relief and said: "It's best if you don't need to acquire!" Mr. Yang, do you know how many people are staring at this time? If you want to compete with the South China Morning Post, Hong Kong's largest English-language newspaper, Hong Kong's Peregrine Securities Company, media tycoon Merkeldow's Group, British media giant The Mirror, Singapore's Lianhe Zaobao, and Japan's Tokuma Bookstore, it will be really difficult for you to compete! ”

The first few Yang Yun had only heard of the name, and he was too familiar with a Tokuma bookstore in Zuihou, and said with a smile: "Tokuma bookstore is making a comeback again?" Didn't they have financial difficulties and sold Studio Ghibli to me? Now let's grab Ming Pao, is this the rhythm of abandoning Japanese companies and favoring our Chinese companies? ”

Because there is too little information, no one knows who killed the deer.

Yang Yun hesitated again and again and asked, "Sister Xinyi, how much does it cost to acquire Ming Pao?" ”

Yuan Xinyi and Yang Zhan glanced at each other, sighed and said: "Ming Pao has been listed, and the acquisition of 50% will cost at least 500 million Hong Kong dollars, and the full acquisition will be more than 1 billion......"

Yang Yun was dumbfounded, and continued to ask: "Does this include Jin Yong's fifteen novels?" ”

Yang Zhan shook his head: "Except for fifteen novels. ”

Call......

Yang Yun knew about it and let out a sigh of relief: "OK, let's also participate in the bidding for Mingbao, but don't participate in the zuihou offer, we just need to let Mr. Jin Yong see our sincerity, and the ultimate goal is to get the game adaptation rights of martial arts novels from him." Do you know what I mean? ”

Yang Zhan's eyes lit up: "The drunkard doesn't mean to drink?" ”

Seeing Yang Yun nodding, Yang Zhan grinned, and the two of them knew what to do.

"Next, I will return to China to create public opinion and rumors, and let 1 billion Chinese support me to save the Hong Kong newspaper industry!"

"Next, I will stay in Hong Kong, visit my colleagues more, and make a big noise, strive for a big thunder, and a small raindrop."

Yuan Xinyi deliberately said: "You guys are really bad! Don't you feel ashamed to treat the elderly like this? ”

Yang Yun smiled and asked: "Anyway, martial arts novels have nothing to do with Ming Pao Group, I just took a fancy to Master Jin's martial arts adaptation rights, and he also intends to sell them, you and I will!" And in a few months, Nippon Fuyun will be able to free up some manpower, and I just let them start adapting the game, which is not right! ”

Yang Zhan agreed: "Anyway, Taiwan Zhiguan Technology is also buying, and the mainland Longteng Entertainment is also buying, which has nothing to do with Ming Pao, so why do you need to be ashamed?" Unless Mr. Jin Yong adds the copyright of martial arts novels to the sales catalog, in that case......"

"In that case, you have to buy it if you smash the pot and sell iron!" Yang Yun was arrogant, "As a Jin Yong fan, I must obtain the game adaptation rights!" ”

The matter was negotiated, and the two sides proceeded according to jihua.

Yang Zhan and Yuan Xinyi stayed in Hong Kong Longteng Publishing House, and through the relationship between Yulang International employees, they released rumors that Longteng Company was ready to participate in the bidding of Ming Pao.

No one in the industry expected that in the joint attack of the Singapore consortium, the British consortium, the Japanese consortium and the Hong Kong local consortium, there would be a company from the Chinese mainland that also joined the melee of the war group!

Chinese mainland's Dragon Entertainment Game Company is ready to invest in the acquisition of Hong Kong Ming Pao!

This news quickly became the most eye-catching news in the Chinese circle! (To be continued......)
