All along, Roland has beeped and said that he wants to buy Disney.

But in reality, he didn't have a clue about such a big project.

It's not as simple as putting an elephant in the freezer in three steps.

Proposed acquisition, commercial negotiation, successful acquisition, completed......

If things were that easy, then Carl Icahn wouldn't make any money.

Even if you have the money to buy, people can refuse, and after the other party refuses, hire Carl Icahn and those guys to knock off the other party's stock price, force shareholders to take action, buy shares in the primary market, force an extraordinary shareholders' meeting with more than 10% of the share, unite with other shareholders who want to sell, fire the disobedient guys on the board of directors, push the puppet to the top, re-agree to the acquisition offer, and then buy junk debt leveraged buyout, pass on all the acquisition costs to leek shareholders, and finally, this hostile takeover has to pass the Ministry of Commerce. You're going to have to get the Commerce guys to nod at this kind of malicious competition that everyone can see......

The whole process seems clear and simple, but Roland can only talk about it.

You let him do it himself?

I'm sorry, my eyes are black, and I'm blind.

Because of this, he will make friends with those people on Wall Street, because this kind of acquisition of more than 10 billion yuan has been made into an industrial chain by those who play finance, it doesn't matter if you don't care, we will!

How bold the heart is, how fruitful is the earth!

As long as you have money and dare to think, we dare to do it!

Of course, whether it is successful in the end or not depends on the specific situation......

Because it really comes to the hostile takeover, people will also throw their hole cards wildly, and sometimes the company that took the initiative to provoke the incident did not succeed in the acquisition, but was attacked by the other party to a wave of anti-takeover, which is also a very normal phenomenon.

So, even though Roland had this idea a few years ago, he has not put it into action so far, and its fundamental purpose is ...... Well, one of the reasons is that things are too difficult, but the most important thing is that they are poor.

However, the poor are poor, but the dream still has to be done.

If you can't even dream, then you will become a salted fish without dreams?

It is precisely because Roland is thinking about the boring thing of dismembering Disney in a few steps, so when he finds that the half-stripped Sony is dangling wantonly in front of him, he is harmless to humans and animals, and his thinking begins to diverge again.

In his previous life, he actually supported Sony.

Except that he didn't buy a PlayStation, he bought the next 2, 3, and 4.

Until now, he still clearly remembers that because he didn't know that the national version of PlayStation 2 could only read the Chinese Simplified Chinese version of the game, when he bought the machine in the magic capital for the first time, the ** was pitted.

I didn't have a game when I bought the machine!

At that time, everyone around me was playing "Fantasy Journey to the West", and no one had the concept of locking the region in their minds!

In the end, with the help of the owner of the video game store, he re-got the Taiwan-Hong Kong version of the machine, and 3 just went on the market, he asked the boss to help him carry the goods, not only that, but he also remembered that the first game he played when he bought 3 was NBA2K7.

It's to use Wade to play Kobe.

Of course, when it comes to PS3, what he is most proud of is the powerful computing power of PS3!

This is something that simulates the Earth!

Tut-tut......

And before the rebirth of the crossing,His TV is still a sixty-five-inch X9500G,From the day he knew Sony,After more than 20 years,He doesn't know how much money he spent on Sony,WM's Walkman,After MP3、MP4,Black card,Headphones,Wireless headphones......

Anyway, except for the blinds, Roland has basically used all kinds of products.

Of course, it's not that he doesn't want to pay the IQ tax on the blinds, it's that the price is too cheap, and when he flips it out and snaps it up......

It's gone.

I knew that I would buy it on a certain treasure.

╮(╯▽╰)╭

It is precisely because of such concern for Sony that Roland does not need to think about Sony's past at all, the six main business groups have appeared in his mind, and the most popular of them is naturally the game business whose sales account for more than 25% of the company's total revenue and operating profit accounts for nearly 40 points of the group's total profit......

And next, Sony's second thigh is financial insurance.

The third thigh is semiconductors.

The fourth thigh is music, the fifth thigh is film and television, and the sixth thigh is entertainment audio equipment.

The last two business groups that are about to disappear are imaging products and mobile communications.

Six pillars and eight legs?

How do you make it the same as an octopus?

Of course, the six main business groups are not the point, the point is that Roland knows that without games, Sony will lose half its life, and if there is no game and no music and film and television, then it will die!

And now, the knife that stabbed Sonny to death is in front of Roland!

First of all, the situation is clearest, Sony Pictures Entertainment.

In the previous life, Sony Pictures Entertainment relied on Spider-Man to pick up a life, and then Sony arrogantly acquired MGM and swallowed 007, seeing that the revenue fell again, Sony launched the transcendent Spider-Man again, and forcibly continued his life again, and after the transcendent Spider-Man got off, he was tied to Marvel, and the Spider-Man hero returned, and then desperately developed other villains in the Spider-Man series.

It is no exaggeration to say that without Spider-Man hanging, Sony Pictures Entertainment would have been killed by Jews in Hollywood.

And now......

Spider-Man in Roland's hands......

Sony Pictures Entertainment is looking good at its current revenue, and it is also a false prosperity.

As soon as the copyright is drawn, they can wait to die.

Secondly, the situation is clear, it is Sony Music.

As long as Jobs leads Apple to tinker with the iPod, Sony's music revenue will fall off a cliff.

You must know that in Roland's previous life, in order to pay the highest respect to Akio Morita who had passed away and didn't have time to see the iPod he had made, while killing the CD market, he only used the hostile means of monopoly blockade against Sony.

United EMI, Universal, and Warner to squeeze out Sony, and directly knocked down the selling price of Sony Music by 30%.

Sony's revenue directly evaporated by 15% that year.

A few years later, in 08, Sony Music's revenue was only 40% of its peak.

This method also forced Sony to tinker with its own products, and implanted Sony's music industry into home consoles.

Finally, the situation is the least clear, and the home console is the same.

Why can't Microsoft beat Sony?

Roland, who started both PS and Xbox, knew in his heart that it was because the product positioning of the two was not the same.

Sony has always regarded home consoles as the next-generation console for core players, while Microsoft has always regarded Xbox as a home set-top box.

Because gamers like Roland can recharge their faith, but users, will not maintain their own home set-top box.

Second, there's the content.

To put it simply, it's exclusivity.

What exclusive games does Xbox have?

Forza Motorsport, Halo, Gears of War?

"Quantum Break", "Sunset Overdrive", "Rotten Country"?

Not to mention that these games are difficult to make players have the urge to buy a machine to play, and the most important thing is that Microsoft exclusives also have a snack - the game platform is Xbox and PC......

**Yes, since your games will be on PC, then I'll buy an egg machine!

My 2080Ti wasn't bought and put to see!

Therefore, Xbox, a machine like this, does not have much attraction for players at all.

And the exclusivity on the PS side, that's a lot.

"Uncharted", "The Last of Us", "God of War".

"Notorious", "Wanda and the Colossus", "The Last Guardian".

"Siphon Warrior", "Killing Zone", "Horizon".

Sony's first-party studio can pick out a series of games that can crush Microsoft's bullshit stove, and in the case that you can enjoy everything when you buy a machine, PS If you can't sell Xbox, then it's definitely a problem for players.

So, after discovering this situation, Microsoft also admitted its failure, and they themselves said that in the absence of content, no matter how much money is spent, it is impossible to beat Sony in the field of home consoles.

But!

If Microsoft is willing to stick his thighs into Roland's backyard, Roland is still willing to climb up......

The deep-pocketed Microsoft can't make content?

It doesn't matter!

Leave this to me!

Xbox sells at a loss!

Give Him Love Announces Xbox Exclusive!

Can a series hurt you?

What the?

If you don't kill or not, the enemy will only fight back more ferociously?

It doesn't matter!

Spielberg's Medal of Honor and the creative texts for Call of Duty and Battlefield are now mine! Call of Duty and Battlefield Xbox Exclusive!

"Give Him Love" + "Call of Duty" + "Battlefield"!

This ** can't kill PS!

Then I'll change my name tomorrow!

I'm not called Roland Allen anymore!

My name is Roland Allen Sony!

And in the case of Microsoft's smashing of Sony's game business group, Apple's defeat of Sony's music business group, and Roland's and Spielberg's sucking out of Sony's film and television entertainment business group, which one should be saved by Sony, which one should be saved?

Save games, music, and film and television entertainment are directly lost.

Save music and film and television entertainment, that game, can be crushed to death by Microsoft, this is no different from suicide!

As long as the fight starts, Roland can do more.

When DreamWorks was formed, the other five thought that Roland and Spielberg were going to eat Sony.

Hearing this kind of remarks, Roland just laughed at the time, because he had no plan to kill Sony at all.

But now......

Sony Pictures Entertainment, which does not have a traditional media business group, seems to be able to really eat it!

As long as he eats Sony Pictures Entertainment, Spielberg's wish back then can come true, and Roland himself......

I'm just a harmless little meow, these things are just Bill Gates, Steve Jobs and Steven Spielberg, I just made money with my thighs in my arms, I don't know anything!

And as long as Sony Pictures Entertainment is eliminated, it will be much easier to buy Disney.

Although he still has no clue, by killing Sony, Roland can also accumulate practical experience in beating these giants!

That's right, although Roland in his previous life was a Suofan, he didn't mind killing Sony's experience baby in this life!

What's more, as the saying goes, if I love you, I'll buy you!

Since I love you so much, let's be one!

Thinking of this, the corners of Roland's mouth, which he didn't hold, hooked up, and suddenly laughed.

This situation also made the people waiting for the following look confused.

"But what?" Bill Gates asked curiously.

"I'm really not the kind of person Steve is talking about, you can just say what you think."

"Ah...... But ah......"

Roland, who came back to his senses, pursed his lips, wanting to put his ideas into some practical actions a little.

By the way, I am drawing a big pie with my dreams.

So, Roland, who wanted to be honest, made it up.

"But ah, making console games has always been our dream......"

"Although Steven never mentioned his remorse to me, every time I played games with him, I could feel that he had a deep sense of self-remorse for what he did back then."

"Actually, it's quite funny, when I instigated Steven to take the stake in Sony Pictures Entertainment's overseas distribution company, I used the rhetoric that I couldn't let Nintendo take advantage, Steven has always hoped that our local companies in America can regain the console market that he gave away, and I like games, after hearing this dream, I am even more enthusiastic."

"So, after I made money, the first thing I did was invest in game companies."

"Steven has always wondered why I didn't develop Warcraft film and television."

"I never told him, I've always been grateful, he helped me get the fact of the "Terminator 2" project when he only saw me once, and then taught me in "Captain Hook", let me change the script of his "Jurassic Park", he has been helping me for so many years, has been giving me wishes, so I also want to help him......"

"But, isn't it like a joke to beat Nintendo when I say it?"

"Just like you don't believe it, I invested in Apple just for Pixar, and I invested in Yahoo just for Marvel, and I don't believe that I can beat Nintendo, so the original development concept of the game company is PC games."

"However, PC games are on fire."

"Warcraft and Diablo are on fire."

"We hold the current record for PC game sales at Blizzard Entertainment, and we firmly believe that this record can be maintained by us, and what we have to do is that only we can beat ourselves in this field."

"So, after making money, console games are on the agenda......"

"I don't have the money to develop consoles, but I can make games, and I want to use games to encroach on Nintendo's market."

"Maybe I won't be able to help Steven make his wish come true in my life, but ......"

"I've always felt it, and he's looking forward to every one of my games......"

"He'll be happy with Blizzard's success, and if he's happy, I'll be a lot more comfortable."

"I can't surprise him in Hollywood, I haven't called him a teacher in years, but as long as what I do makes him feel better tomorrow, I'll do it......"

The affectionate words moved everyone present.

"Oh, Roland......" Spielberg, leaning back in his chair, blew his nose, his eyes a little red.

"You're the most uneasy one I've ever taught......"

"But it's also my favorite one......"

"Really? Is it because of the game? Steve Jobs interjected.

Having played Arkanoid against Spielberg back then, he knew how addicted this guy was to the game.

"No, No, No......" Spielberg shook his head, however.

"It's because he's the first guy to do what I love......"

"Chris, Robert...... Those guys who have been taught by me and helped by me have repaid me in the field of film and television, and they feel that the help they have helped me in my career can make me happy. ”

"But actually, I don't lack those books."

"I don't lack those directors, and I don't lack those actors......"

"What I'm missing is someone who can play games with me in the office."

"What I'm missing is a guy who tells me, 'It doesn't matter if you lose to Nintendo, just kill him later.'"

Such words made everyone at the scene laugh.

Bill Gates and Paul Allen nodded with emotion, Steve Jobs leaned there and looked at Roland with an inquiring gaze, while Kate, who had been listening to Roland's side, silently bowed her head and looked at her ten fingers thoughtfully.

"So, you don't want to develop Warcraft film and television?" After a long silence, the curious Jobs was the first to break the peace.

"It's not counting, it's mainly the game industry and the technology industry that burn money, and my money is only a little ......."

"In addition, console games have to cooperate with console development, so I don't have the energy to ...... for the time being."

"Roland, what you just said was that you just didn't want to cooperate with Nintendo when you chose Sony?"

Bill Gates also asked.

And Roland, waiting for this question, "Yes, Steven's wish is to see local companies take back the game market. ”

"But in America, there are no companies that make game consoles."

"If there were, then I would definitely give priority to working with these companies."

"Really? But judging from the current situation, there is still a gap between your Blizzard Entertainment's console game R&D strength and that of established game companies, what do you think of the console game market? "Paul Allen helped an old friend with a question.

For this kind of meat play, Roland, who understands the game market, replied very easily, "Actually, at the beginning of this year, I asked Blizzard Entertainment to go to Edinburgh to buy a game studio, as long as you know about games, you should know that the studio I am eyeing is the developer of the "GTA" game that shined at the E3 booth last year. ”

"The R&D strength of console games can be enhanced through mergers and acquisitions, and what determines the life and death of a game is actually creativity."

"I can't explain this kind of thing to you, but the sales volume can confirm that our Blizzard Entertainment's creativity is loved by the public, and as for the console game market, ......"

"I think William has already answered that question in last year's bestseller The Road Ahead."

"Games are just a means to promote home consoles, and the core of home consoles is the Internet of Everything."

When Roland uttered the words 'everything is connected,' Steve Jobs and Bill Gates both raised eyebrows.

It's not that the term 'Internet of Everything' is too new, but that Roland agrees with this view!

"Do you think my theory of the Internet of Everything can be realized?" Bill Gates clasped his hands and looked at Roland with a smile.

"Of course, I firmly believe that there will be smart homes in the future." Roland, who had already read the answer, replied in the affirmative.

"Good, good......" Bill Gates nodded slightly, his eyes kept on Roland.

He hadn't asked anything, but he had already asked everything.

If he didn't understand why Roland sold Yahoo before, now he knows it.

Roland controls Amazon, IMDb and Blizzard Entertainment, and the most fundamental purpose is to make the Internet of Everything in content!

Stay at home and do it all with the internet!

He wants to keep himself in everyone's life forever!

That's the kind of thought, that's just ......

That's great!

As for the reason?

Because the theory of the Internet of Everything was put forward by himself!

"You've been saying that you're short of money?" After pondering for a long time, Bill Gates suddenly said: "Before I came, I read your company briefing, Blizzard Capital wholly owns Blizzard Entertainment, Warcraft Films, Overwatch Ventures and Interstellar Records. ”

"Interstellar Records is an empty shell at the moment, so it doesn't count for the time being."

"Warcraft Films has all the rights to Marvel, as well as The Lord of the Rings and The Hobbit, and then holds 25 percent of the shares of Sony and Amperin and Warcraft United Distribution, as well as the film rights to "The Wedding Banquet", "Eating and Drinking", "The Seven Deadly Sins", "The Shawshank Redemption", "Love Before Dawn", and "Red Fan Zone".

"These things add up, I gave you a valuation of one billion for Warcraft Film and Television, what do you think?"

"Blizzard Entertainment's revenue last year exceeded 100 million, and I will estimate 150 million for you by fifteen times."

"Overwatch Ventures owns 67 percent of IMDb, 4.68 million shares of Yahoo stock, 15 percent of Amazon shares, 10.73 percent of Apple shares, and 10.48 million shares of Microsoft shares."

"All these things add up, I'm giving you an estimate of fifteen billion."

"And then you have 20,000 Berkshire Hathaway shares in your hands."

"All things add up, and I estimate your Blizzard capital at five billion."

"I personally contributed 1 billion, accounting for 20 percent of the shares."

"How, a billion in cash can make the company develop rapidly."

In fact, the direction of buying and buying is the fundamental idea of the company's development.

Everything is developed by the company itself, and this kind of thing will only exist in it.

Broaden the market?

Buy!

Layout for the future?

Buy!

Breaking through the monopoly?

Buy!

Except for the company that produces the content, everything else can be solved by buying.

Buying is the easiest way to grow your company and the best way to save costs.

And Bill Gates wants to invest in Blizzard Capital because Roland's development ideas are highly consistent with his conjectures.

As for how did he know that Roland held a multi-point Berkshire Hathaway stock?

Warren Buffett, was introduced to him by his mother.

Bill Gates has been a shareholder of Berkshire Hathaway since '91.

And earlier this year, David Olsen attended Berkshire Hathaway's annual meeting.

The world is so big, after entering the circle, who doesn't know anyone?

But for Roland, a billion wants 20% of Blizzard Capital's equity?

I'm selling it to you when my brain is broken!

Not to mention anything else, Amazon and Apple alone will be hundreds of billions of assets in ten years, okay?

You want to eat twenty percent for a billion now?

Dream on!

However, Roland, who originally wanted to hug Microsoft's thigh on the home console, would not refuse bluntly.

After glancing at Jobs and spotting that this guy was staring at Bill Gates with a dark face, Roland said:

"William ......"

"There may be some minor problems with investing in this kind of thing......"

"My company holds Apple shares, and now you say to invest in my company in front of Apple's CEO, isn't that equivalent to indirect shareholding? Do you think Steve would agree with you? ”

As soon as these words came out, Bill Gates also turned his head and glanced at Jobs.

After seeing that Jobs might have a live PK with him, Bill Gates took the initiative to give up.

"Well, that's a small problem."

Seeing that things might be at an impasse, Spielberg, who had been moved by Roland's words, came out to relieve the siege, "Roland, how much do you lack?" I can borrow you, it doesn't matter if you don't pay it back for a while, you can pay it back if you don't pay it back. ”

When the old man said this, it was like giving money for nothing.

But Roland was not prepared to use his own money to develop the company.

Empty gloves white wolf, isn't it fragrant?

Only the poor will make a fortune with their own money.

"Oh, Steven, you might as well lend me money and provide me with a way to earn money."

"My current source of income is only salary dividends, which are paid once a year, which is too slow."

"A way to make money? I've got this, Bernard Madoff, you know him? ”

"The annual return is over 10 percent, do you want to try it?"

Bernard Madoff?

As soon as he heard the name, Roland immediately laughed.

The Madoff case was the biggest Ponzi scheme in history, and although it was a thunderstorm during the subprime mortgage crisis in '08, Roland did not want to get involved.

"10% annualized ......"

"This one is a little too slow......"

Roland, who didn't want to get involved, rejected Spielberg's kindness a little 'greedily'.

And he didn't think about enlightening the other party.

Because Bernard Madoff, is Jewish.

"Ten percent is too slow? Then your appetite is a bit big......"

Bill Gates chuckled, since Blizzard Capital can't accept his investment for the time being, then he can only wait.

He really thinks Roland's little head is quite funny now.

Unfortunately, fun can't be turned into money.

Just having eyes and no funds is all a fantasy.

He wanted to help Blizzard Capital, but Steve Jobs defended him like a thief.

However, before he could finish speaking, Paul Allen, who had already seen his old friend's thoughts, said, "You dislike ten percent too slowly? Do you dare to do that business where the principal has increased fivefold in half a year? ”

"The investment capital starts at 200 million, and the commission is 20%."

What？

When Paul Allen smiled and said the terrifying yield, Roland's eyelids jumped.

Half a year, 200 million to 1 billion?

The commission is 20%, which is equivalent to a net income of 600 million?

What kind of fairy scam is this?

Although Roland didn't believe that there was such a good thing in this world, he still asked.

“Wow？ What is it that yields so horribly? ”

Paul Allen's answer made Roland almost jump out of his seat.

"Quantum Fund, George is ready to go to Southeast Asia to play a big game like the previous pound crisis, the Italian lira crisis, and the Mexican peso crisis, and in February this year, they did 15 billion Thai baht futures short selling, and this month they began to sell spot Thai baht, and at the latest in early July, the Thai government will be collapsed by him."

"Although the deadline for raising funds has long passed, they can still do it."

"If you want to gamble, I can stuff you into the baht."

"As long as ......"

"You dare to play."
