Sony's call was out of everyone's expectations.

Even Zhang Yang, who planned this plan, didn't expect that it was because he and Sony competed for Blizzard's works that this would intersect and enter Sony's sight.

Wilson didn't mention these things, because these things can be said to be dispensable, but Sony's quick response still caught everyone off guard.

"Acquisitions? Sony wants to buy our company? ”

Zixia repeated.

"Yes, the strength of your company is obvious to all, and it has gained the green knowledge of Blizzard and EA in a short period of time, which makes us think that your company has great potential for development, so I want to talk about the acquisition."

Sitting in his office, Hideo Fukuda spoke standard Chinese with an inexplicable look on his face, and before reaching this position, Fukuda taught himself a certificate in Mandarin Chinese.

"I'm sorry, Mr. Fukuda, our company has only been established for a short time, not even a week, are you a little too hasty?"

Ziguang software must not be sold, Sony wants to acquire the company, software is the core of the company, but Zixia did not refuse, but wanted to see what attention Sony played, whether it was a simple commercial investment acquisition, or because of other business competition.

"In a hurry? No, no, no, opportunities are fleeting, my vision tells me that your company has capital worth acquiring, there is an old saying in China, called the newborn calf is not afraid of tigers, and we value this. ”

After the initial surprise, Zixia quickly regained her composure, and Ziguang Software had just held a press conference and entered Sony's sight, which was good news and bad news.

The good news is. The strength of his company has attracted the attention of some well-intentioned people and is ready to invest and acquire, which shows that the company's prospects are not bad. On the other hand, because the company is being targeted, there will be some trouble in the future.

Being able to acquire it into your own hands is naturally a good deal, and if you can't buy it, some people like to cut the grass and eradicate it......

The wood is beautiful in the forest, and the wind will destroy it.

These thoughts flashed through Zixia's mind. Thinking about the gains and losses.

"With all due respect, if Sony really plans to buy it, will it buy the company alone or our software?"

"At the heart of both of them is Unisplendour software, which is what Sony is looking at, or you can sell the software to us separately. We will make a long-term investment in the form of a capital injection into your company. ”

Hideo Fukuda looked at the plan in front of him and said quietly.

"What is the approximate price range. Now that Sony is able to see the potential of the software. I'm sure you'll give us a price that will appeal to us. ”

Zixia asked after thinking about it.

"For $800W, I want all the rights of Unisplendour Software, including copyright."

"This can't be, Mr. Fukuda, your price is too low."

Zixia just asked the other party's initial investment desire to see if Sony really wanted to buy, and the other end of the phone groaned. Then said.

"This price is only preliminary, and we can discuss the final price in detail, as long as the software can be sold to us in its entirety."

"I'm sorry Mr. Fukuda, but the price is not the main reason. It's that I don't have any plans to sell the software and the company right now, so, I'm sorry, we refused. ”

Zixia bluntly stated her position and refused.

"President Li Ziyu, I don't think your company needs to refuse so quickly, I just want to express the intention of the acquisition first, you can think about it carefully, you have two days, how about we negotiate at that time."

There was no look of annoyance in Hideo Fukuda's voice, but he continued to discuss calmly, and Zixia could only agree for the time being.

The behemoth of Sony stands in front of him, and once he angers the other party, the company may be blocked and attacked by the other party.

"Okay, I will contact President Li Ziyu again in two days, this number is the private phone number of my office, there is a special guard 24 hours a day, you can contact me at any time, goodbye."

Hanging up the phone, a sneer appeared on the corner of Fukuda's mouth.

The other party's answer was within his expectations, and he had no intention of selling the software, and the other party was not without a city, and the huge amount of $800W made the other party not tempted at all.

After the failure of Watanabe's plan, Hideo Fukuda specially investigated the information of this Unigroup software, which almost set off a wave on the Huaxia Internet a few days ago, and at this press conference, EA's sideways intervention also made Fukuda more concerned.

"Being able to produce such high-quality software in a short period of time seems to be because of that software, if you calculate it according to this thousand miles, the value of the software is infinite, but unfortunately, they have no intention of selling it."

Fukuda's eyes flashed with danger.

"If you can buy this company, of course, this is the best, if you can't buy it, the other party will be able to rise in time, rather than waiting until the other party and Sony fight each other, it is better to start first, in order to prevent future troubles."

Since it can't be used by me, it can't be obtained by others, Hideo Fukuda sits in the position of vice president, and naturally knows this truth, so he has already made a two-step plan, either to acquire, or to take the opportunity to suppress and kill the other party before it rises.

Sony has been able to develop steadily for so many years, continue to acquire other companies, and enhance its own strength, which is also related to accurate vision positioning, and in the strategic plan designated by Fukuda, Watanabe Kaisha was originally an important part, but at this moment it was replaced by the dark horse of Unisplendour Software, and became a better candidate.

"I hope you'll be smarter, or you'll ......."

……

After the official broadcast of the press conference, Unisplendour Software once again set off a heated discussion, there is no doubt that the strength of Unisplendour Software conquered most of the players in the Blizzard national server, the original criticism suddenly weakened, and the supporting side occupied the upper hand in an instant.

According to the information published on Blizzard's official website, Unisplendour Software undertook the production of Blizzard's second phase of CGzuò project, and the first to make Zuò was World of Warcraft and Warcraft, and the pre-investment budget price was ...... $900,000.

This price is not high, but a bit low.

At the beginning, Final Fantasy's CG production cost at least 100 million US dollars, including labor, hardware, and software, but the box office was extremely dismal.

Blizzard's CG this time,Mainly in-game promotional CG,Opening animation,Cutscenes,The scene is relatively fragmented,The time is shorter,The total time adds up,About fifteen minutes or so of World of Warcraft and Warcraft,According to Blizzard's careful calculation before,90W dollars is already very generous to Blizzard's team。

When filming the mystery of the panda man, Blizzard was very picky and didn't even invite a martial arts instructor, but found a few developers who were obsessed with countless people to complete the CG production this time.

CG is a money-burning and laborious industry, not blindly gorgeous can be completed, to make a perfect CG, there is too much preparation work required, if Blizzard's requirements are calculated, other companies to undertake this project, the budget cost is at least more than 2 million US dollars.

At the beginning, Blizzard's game CG,Strictly speaking, it belongs to animation,The production team is Blizzard's developers.,Use in-game models.,The picture quality is also a little rough.,These models are also used in the game later.,It can be calculated in the development expenses.,The only cost is a few thousand dollars in salary.。

In the later stage, CG plays the role of a trailer, and the requirements and quality for the production of zuò are getting higher and higher, if it is an outside team, the production of standard level CG, hardware, software, models, and labor are at least a million dollars to start, and Blizzard's Wrath of the Lich King, it is rumored to cost 300-500W dollars.

And 5 million US dollars, Ziguang software took less than a few days to make the same effect, which made Blizzard deeply hurt, and because of this, the cost of making this time was greatly reduced, in fact, Zixia arranged to manually complete Blizzard's requirements, and the entire cost, including the employees' eating, drinking, and lazing, was less than 100,000 yuan, most of which were borne by the company on its own initiative.

The two million that Zhang Yang handed over to Zixia, in addition to the purchase of high-configuration machines, recruitment of labor, rent, wages, and registered capital, cost seventy-seven eighty-eight, and at this moment, Blizzard's order of nearly one million US dollars was directly earned back with interest.

Now the exchange rate of the US dollar against the yuan is 7.625:1, and it is 6.86 million yuan against huàn, with a net profit of more than 4.8 million.

In addition to Blizzard, many game companies in Europe and the United States don't like CG very much, thinking that this increases the cost of production, and this time Blizzard is ready to produce a high-level professional CG, ready to blebotomy, in fact, Blizzard's initial offer was 1 million US dollars, but after Wilson visited Unisplendour Software, he strongly asked to reduce the price, because the truth is too hurtful.

As a result, the price has dropped by $100,000, and you still want to go down? Then you go find another team, I won't take it.

If you go to another team, you can't even make a splash if you smash a million dollars, so Wilson can only report to the president of Blizzard, and finally sign a contract, this 90W dollars is used as the budget for World of Warcraft and Warcraft, not including the cost of Diablo and StarCraft.

For Zixia, in addition to the hard cost of the company's purchase of the machine and the rent and salary, the other costs are almost negligible, what, you say that the bottled water of the water dispenser should be counted? Well, a million dollars is enough to drink a lifetime of bottled water.

90W US dollars is already a huge amount of money for a fledgling small company, so many people are surprised by Unisplendour Software while also remembering the name, especially some famous game companies, such as ...... Nintendo. (To be continued......)
