Chapter 441 [Dissatisfied, Face Gang]
"Mr. Luo, morning!"
"Mr. Luo!"
"Boss!"
Luo Sheng came to the new headquarters of the CΓ΄te d'Azur today, and on the way to the special elevator, the employees he met greeted him very warmly.
Nowadays, the frequency of coming to the company in person is getting lower and lower, and the employees working in the new headquarters have also found that there are fewer and fewer opportunities to meet the ultimate boss, and the employees take it for granted that Luo Sheng's current career is too extensive, and it is very good to be able to come to the company once a week.
Not long after Luo Sheng arrived at his office, Yao Jianhong came.
"Mr. Luo, Microsoft is on the same page with us." As soon as Yao Jianhong came in, he got straight to the point.
"On the bar? Which section? Luo Sheng looked up at him, his eyes motioning for the other party to sit casually.
Yao Jianhong was not polite, moved a chair and sat down, handed a paper newspaper in his hand to the desk, and said: "Led by Microsoft's interactive entertainment department, and Sony, Nintendo, Sega and other old manufacturers compete with us, in order to avoid the large-scale inflow of third parties into the ACC console platform monopoly and lead to content malaise, the alliance formed by Microsoft has also followed up with subsidies, and there is a great tendency to compete with us." β
Next, Yao Jianhong concisely stated to Luo Sheng some recent things on the Cote d'Azur, which can be said to have caused a lot of waves in the global game industry recently, and the fuse was the strategic adjustment announced by Ubisoft.
Luo Sheng held the water cup and said with a smile: "Microsoft has no confidence, I am very interested in fighting for financial resources, and I am unwilling to play the group fight route?" Their PY deal hit it off? β
Microsoft doesn't have much confidence to fight with Luo Sheng now, so third parties such as Sony and Nintendo don't have this strength, and Microsoft is worried about these old first-party manufacturers.
The enemy of the enemy is the friend, and it is natural to reach a consensus.
In this regard, Luo Sheng was not surprised at all.
The two sides chose to face each other head-on, and a hot subsidy war was about to be staged, and the global third-party game developers who mastered the content were simply happy, and when Microsoft announced the news, the market value of third-party game developers rose sharply.
Yao Jianhong said: "Mr. Luo, this is my decision, I originally hoped to make Microsoft soft, but I didn't expect the progress of things to be reversed, so the amount of loss may be at least ten or even ten times higher than my original estimate." β
Obviously, Yao Jianhong felt that he was playing big, and he was a little out of luck, so he came to Luo Sheng's office to talk about this matter for the first time.
"Let's fight, it's one thing to have no money, but why don't we fight if we have money? Is it moldy? I don't care about the gains and losses of one city and one pool. Luo Sheng said calmly: "Your decision is right, the game industry is a thriving sunrise industry, deeply related to the ICT field, we not only want to have a place in this field, but also to grasp the leading position." β
Game consoles are really not Luo Sheng's ultimate pursuit in this field, the real pursuit is games supported by virtual reality interfaces, which is the real high-tech.
In the face of Luo Sheng's affirmation, Yao Jianhong finally felt a lot more relieved, and breathed a sigh of relief inexplicably, because the loss of this fight is definitely an astronomical amount, and he does not have the right to make this decision, and he must have the boss to open his mouth to enter the next step.
After a while, Luo Sheng looked at Yao Jianhong and asked, "Have you calculated, how long will the financial resources of competitors be unbearable?" β
Luo Sheng didn't think about the problem that he would not be able to withstand, what are you kidding, once it is put together, he can quickly make more than 100 billion dollars of capital chain flow, once the money machine of this scale is operational, it will produce terrifying energy, and the scale of such funds has exceeded the total output value of the global game industry last year.
The competitor completely misestimated Luo Sheng, thinking that although he had strong financial resources, he would not lose too much money and would not engage in loss-making transactions, but Luo Sheng never thought so.
Yao Jianhong, of course, did his homework and answered this question immediately.
β¦β¦
At the same time, a meeting is also underway at Sony's headquarters, and it happens that the issue is also being discussed with Microsoft and other allies who are attending the meeting.
Don Mattrick, president of Microsoft's interactive entertainment division, was here, and he said: "I have asked the following departments to do an analysis, once the subsidy war breaks out with the Cote d'Azur, the losses of each side will start at 20 million US dollars in one day, and at this rate of loss, our budget can be up to about half a year." β
The vice president of Nintendo muttered to himself: "It's really crazy, once you exert your strength, no one dares to stop, and once you collect it, you will lose all your efforts, and you can only keep dying." β
β¦β¦
The amount given by Yao Jianhong is the same as that of Don Mattlik, and after listening to the estimate given by Lao Yao, Luo Shengyun said lightly: "Then I lose 30 million US dollars, and the opponent wants to resist it, then I will lose 50 million US dollars, and the competitor is unwilling and does not give up, so I will lose until their heart dies." β
Ruthless enough!
Yao Jianhong secretly smacked his lips, with this kind of loss amount and speed, it will have to exceed $9 billion in losses in half a year, and it will be more than $18 billion a year, which is what people dare to do?
With Luo Sheng's unswerving decision-making, Yao Jianhong didn't have too many worries, and he just talked about other things.
There is no doubt that third-party game developers who produce content have become the direct beneficiaries of the fierce competition between the first parties of the game over the game content, and it is these game companies that subsidize it, which is the direct cause of the recent surge in stock prices.
The new round of next-generation console wars is not only in the gaming industry, but also in the technology industry and Wall Street, and the high-end hardware in the game console also represents the precision manufacturing of the semiconductor industry in the world today, and the carrier of the ninth art is inseparable from high technology.
And Luo Sheng threw a "catfish" in the game industry, and the whole industry is facing a precursor to a major reshuffle.
However, just when the eyes of the outside world were attracted by this next-generation console war and talked about it, Luo Sheng had already withdrawn and moved to other fields.
β¦β¦
In Shencheng, Luo Sheng's special car convoy is on its way to the Xiongxin Electronics Super Factory.
Qin Weimu was also sitting next to him and chatting casually.
"Last year, the total net income of the family fund was 33.2 billion yuan, and I won." Qin Weimu looked at Luo Sheng with a smile and said: "In 2010, with the intensification of the eurozone sovereign debt crisis, I once again boldly predicted that Greece is about to usher in a 'life and death juncture', if the situation is worse, it may declare bankruptcy this year, and later next year, and Italy and Spain and other large eurozone countries will also be threatened." β
Luo Sheng turned his head to look at her: "So confident? β
Hearing this, Qin Weimu seriously analyzed: "Greece seems to be almost weak, I was doing a research report the year before last, as of the end of 2009, Greece's debt-to-GDP ratio was as high as 124.9%, and at the end of last year, this ratio has climbed to 142.8%. Greece's total debt accumulation is now 337 billion euros. β
"In addition, according to the Greek Ministry of Finance, the budget deficit at the beginning of the year was revised by 14% to 7.246 billion euros, exceeding the target of 6.924 billion euros, and the preliminary value was 7.235 billion euros. To put it simply, both 'soft restructuring' and 'hard restructuring' mean default. β
Luo Sheng said succinctly: "That is to say, the family fund can obtain greater benefits from it in the future?" β
Qin Weimu nodded calmly, and added after a while: "This is just a small head, in my professional judgment, the European continent under the European debt crisis is likely to break out in the next few years. β
Luo Sheng retracted his gaze and said calmly: "You can go and toss these things, in short, don't lose the fund." β
Qin Weimu firmly believes that the European debt crisis will break out a "black swan", and Luo Sheng knows that the biggest "black swan" event is the Brexit incident.
I didn't take these things to heart, anyway, there was a lot of money at that time, Luo Sheng was not very interested in finance and money, and he hadn't touched money in person for a long time.
Changing the world is what he aspires to pursue.
At about 11 o'clock in the morning, the team arrived at the super factory of Xiongxin Electronics, ASML has completed the delivery and put into use the latest batch of 45nm immersion lithography equipment, and Xiongxin Electronics has been in production since the end of last year.
