Within half a year, Xue Chen produced four more classic games, they were "Half-Life", "Counter-Strike", "Jedi Storm", "Red Alert", with the successive launch of these four games, the game company's profits showed a blowout growth, among which the sales of Counter-Strike and Half-Life were almost on par with Plants vs. Zombies once they were launched, ranking among the top five best-selling games in the United States.

The inhumane profitability has naturally attracted the prying eyes of many investment companies, the most famous of which is GAI, the world's largest technology company.

As for what GAI does, know the invincible chip implanted in Li Zexing's head by Professor Zhonghuang of Baichangxing, GAI is a company specializing in the research of invincible chips, but the research of invincible chips is only one of GAI's many businesses, they are more engaged in satellites, servers and electrical equipment.

No matter how dark the technology is, it also needs money to research, so GAI has had to expand its business in recent years and improve its profitability to maintain its growing body.

With the rise of the Internet, GAI's investment department also set its sights here, originally GAI thought that the Sky Hook Game Company was just a simple game manufacturer, and it was not worth paying attention to, but with the activation code system provided by the Sky Hook Company in Plants vs. Zombies, they keenly found that this was the rhythm of the Sky Hook Company to begin to lay out the Internet.

Users who buy the Sky Hook game CD will get a game activation code, and enter the official website of the Sky Hook game through the activation code to download the latest game patches, update the game version, and keep the game interesting, and this update is once a month, that is to say, tens of millions of game purchase users, the vast majority of them will log in to the official website of the Sky Hook game, which causes extremely terrifying traffic today.

So in order not to be preempted by other companies, GAI had to put down its arrogant head and come to Skyhook Games.

Based on the current profitability of Skyhook Games and the sales expectation that these six games will be hot for at least three years in the future, GAI values Skyhook at $3.5 billion, which is much worse than the valuation of the appraisal company at $5 billion.

Xue Chen doesn't care about the value of the company, the real core of the game company is himself, although the current Tiangou company has a great reputation in North America, but it has been established for too short a time after all, and it still takes time to convert popularity into profit.

GAI's investment plan is to contribute 2 billion US dollars, accounting for 60% of the company's shares, in the face of the temptation of such a huge amount of money, Cai Dongsheng and Yao Guohui can not restrain their inner excitement, the excitement on their faces in the eyes of GAI's investor representatives, becoming a major shareholder is almost a sure thing.

"I reject this investment plan." Xue Chen ignored Cai Dongsheng and Yao Guohui's anxious eyes, although he didn't care about the actual value of the company, but according to the current situation, the annual net profit of Tiangou Company would reach more than 300 million US dollars, and the current market value of companies in the United States that can make such profits is almost more than 50 billion US dollars.

Even if the Sky Hook Company has been established for too short a time and has not yet stood the test of consumers, the value is definitely more than that, and Xue Chen is also very angry at the almost robbery of the Sky Hook Company.

"Mr. Xue, even if your company's profitability is much better than that of the three major game manufacturers, it does not mean that your company's market value is equal to that of the three major game manufacturers, if we take a stake, I believe we will be able to become the fourth largest game manufacturer within three years." The representative of GAI Investment is right, the three major game manufacturers are involved in a wide range of industrial chains, from toys, film and television, entertainment and other aspects have penetrated into the bone marrow of consumers, even if they are in a state of loss, but the value will not be reduced.

But the sky hook is different, once you lose money, you will fall into the abyss.

But with Xue Chen, will you lose money?

Xue Chen smiled and said confidently, "Mr. Matt, why don't we talk about the investment plan in my mind." ”

Helen McDot said yes.

"Two billion dollars in cash plus a 5% stake in GAI Technologies in exchange for a 30% stake in Skyhook."

Matt's originally calm face was first surprised after listening to Xue Chen's shareholding plan, and then became angry: "Mr. Xue, do you understand what the current market value of GAI is?" If not, then I'm telling you, it's a full 500 billion dollars, and you think your company is currently worth 70 billion dollars? ”

"Of course I do, that's why I'm coming up with such a reasonable number." Looking at Matt's gaffe, Xue Chen continued: "Mr. Matt, the door of our Skyhook Game Company will always be open for GAI, and after a year, you will find out how cheap my conditions are. ”

Matt left angrily, not forgetting to curse Xue Chen's greed before leaving.

Cai Dongsheng said depressedly after seeing Matt leave: "Two billion dollars, you actually passed by me." ”

Yao Guohui also said distractedly: "It's really a miracle that I didn't break off with you because of so much money." ”

In fact, if Matt wants to buy the shares in the hands of Cai Dongsheng and Yao Guohui, Xue Chen has no choice, if the negotiations between the two of them 40% of the shares go well, it should not be a problem to sell two billion US dollars, they did not sell, but Xue Chen is a lot happy.

After rejecting GAI's acquisition, Matt, the new CEO of Skyhook Games, announced that Skyhook currently has no financing plan, thus cutting off the idea of other companies.

In the next six months, the six games under the company continued to be successful outside of North America, with a total of 20 million copies sold, generating a net profit of nearly $500 million for the company.

When the time entered 1997, Skyhook Games made a crazy profit of 630 million US dollars in just one year, and became the most profitable game company in the world.

With the launch of the offline interactive entertainment model of Skyhook Games, toys, film and television, amusement and other projects of games such as Plants vs. Zombies and Angry Birds have also shown crazy growth.

After the subsequent launch of games such as StarCraft and Warcraft, the first global competitive competition established by Skyhook with a capital of 10 million US dollars officially kicked off.

At this moment, the name of the world's fourth largest game manufacturer and the first largest PC game manufacturer spread far and wide.

Before the one-year appointment arrived, GAI's Matt once again stepped into the door of Skyhook Games.

This time, Matt put his posture very low, and Xue Chen did not put forward other conditions, and the two signed an investment agreement on behalf of their respective companies, and agreed to be listed on the NASDAQ at the end of this year.

Xue Chen, Cai Dongsheng, and Yao Guohui were sold to GAI according to their respective share ratios, and their initial investment was returned 100 times in just one year, which made them have a blind belief in Xue Chen, GAI's 5% shares do not belong to Tiangou Company, but belong to Xue Chen, Cai Dongsheng and Yao Guohui have no opinion on this, according to the current valuation of Tiangou Company, after listing, Cai Dongsheng may become a billionaire who surpasses his father. Yao Guohui is definitely the richest star in the entertainment industry.

However, when Xue Chen let GAI become a shareholder, his focus of work has begun to change, the game company is now on the right track, and the company's employees have expanded to 1,000 people.

Xue Chen's work was transferred to GAI.
