Chapter 146: Wanbao Game (Subscription Requested)

"Nirvana! Ascend the Dragon Sword! ”

This line has become a favorite mantra for children this summer.

Along with ......

The animation "Dragon Fighter" sold well with the same dragon sword, and the sales of toys were not inferior to the two models of "Dragon God" and "Dragon King".

The influence is still spreading!

To this day, Dragon Fighter may not be the most-watched anime under Wanbao, but it is definitely the most popular among boys.

This level of love is even more exaggerated than the original "Thunder Speed Lightning Rush Line".

In the words of the well-known anime blogger [I'm a scumbag]:

"Lei Sudeng is very popular, but after reading it, everyone only remembers all kinds of remote control cars. But "Dragon Fighter" is different, the Dragon God is cool and handsome, but Xiaodu and his friends are just as memorable......"

The hexagonal warrior is overrated.

But it is undeniable that whether it is character building, plot development, or the modeling design of the main demon god, the animation "Dragon Fighter" has done a very good job.

The brave and reliable Xiaodu and the domineering Ryujin, the funny and humorous Master Shibaragu and the occasional drop of the chain of the God of War, the lively and cute Simig......

Even if the animation is not like "Pleasant Goat and Big Big Wolf" and "Pig Man", it has achieved amazing results in ratings.

But in the eyes of the audience, especially the boys.

Dragon Fighter is undoubtedly the best anime they've seen this year, not even one of them! If the perfect score is 10, they are even willing to give 11 points!

But there is one thing that is regrettable.

Such a good-looking animation, there are only 45 episodes? Since the end of the first season of "Pleasant Goat and Big Big Wolf", why has Uncle Gu's length become shorter and shorter?

"You're short, your whole family is short!"

Facing the audience's doubts, Gu Miao said angrily: "It's not my fault that there are fewer animated episodes, not to mention that 45 episodes is not short, right?" ”

Haven't seen neon anime, right?

If that's all short, for those animations with only 12 episodes in a season, does the supervisor have to drag them out and shoot them for five minutes?

"But you do get shorter."

Ma Kui folded his fingers and calculated: "Pig Man and Sheep Games, let's not talk about this kind of animation that is not supervised by you." ”

"Pleasant Goat and Big Big Wolf 530 episodes, Lei Sudeng lightning line 50 episodes, Dragon Fighter 45 episodes ......"

Oh yes!

There is also a "Sailor Moon" sandwiched between Lei Suden and the Dragon Fighter, which has not been broadcast for the time being, and the total number of episodes is about 45-50 episodes.

The audience is really right.

As long as people who are not blind can see that Gu Miao's animated works from last year to the present, the number of episodes is less than the first.

"Shut up!"

Gu Miao glanced at Ma Kui angrily, and couldn't help asking, "Am I short, do I need you to remind me?" How's it going to do what I asked you to do? ”

"It's ok, it's going well."

"The comrade selected by Seto and codenamed Vespa has already made initial contact with the president of that game company."

Speaking of business, Ma Kui said with a serious face: "Judging from the tone of the first contact, he is not very happy to be acquired. ”

Reasonable.

As the founder of a company, the company is doing well, and life is very nourishing, who would want to sell the company when they are idle?

Unless it's a sky-high price that can't be refused!

But Gu Miao has calculated that the valuation of the company that launched the game "Elf Trainer" is about 2-300 million yen, that is, about 10 million to 15 million yuan.

This is a normal valuation.

If you talk about the acquisition at this price, others will definitely not agree and want to win the other party, starting at least 20% at a premium.

20% depends on the situation.

The founder has the idea of cashing out and running away, so it can basically be negotiated. However, if the founder does not have the idea of cashing out, the premium ratio may be higher.

Gu Miao's bottom line is a 100% premium!

That is, to give a double valuation, as long as you are willing to sell, Wanbao can immediately take over with money, and by the way, keep the original game development team.

Of course, the bottom line is the bottom line.

At the time of initial contact, Gu Miao's attitude to the other party was just a "market valuation" acquisition.

Obviously, the other side will not accept it.

"The second contact was more unexpected."

"When Comrade Vespa revealed to him that we are a multinational company that wants to make a big splash in the game industry, he became interested. ”

Multinational corporations?

Aiming for something big in the gaming industry?

Gu Miao couldn't hold back, and laughed out loud: "And then? What did he say? ”

"His attitude has softened a little, probably because he thinks that it is beneficial to the development of the company, so he is willing to sell some shares to us."

Part of the equity is useless!

What Gu Miao wants is not the identity of a "shareholder", what he wants is "Elf Trainer" and the game development team.

"On the third contact, we raised the offer, and he had some objections to the price, thinking that it was too low!"

Ma Kui sneered: "He still wants to lie to us, saying that there is another company that also wants to invest in them, and the price is high......"

Clever!

If it weren't for Comrade Vespa's cleverness and wit, he would have investigated in advance, and it is estimated that he would have been deceived.

But since Wanbao has already investigated, he will definitely not be easily fooled.

Comrade Vespa immediately said: "Brother! Since someone values you so much, then you can promise him! Don't think about my feelings, I don't mind ......"

Negotiations were immediately suspended.

After about three or four days, the other party couldn't hold it back, and asked Comrade Vespa out for a drink, revealing his general bottom line.

tomato

"If you want to keep the management, you can't easily lay off the staff, leave him about 10% of the shares for retirement, and the premium ratio should reach 50%?"

After listening to this request, Gu Miao couldn't help frowning and said: "It's easy to say about layoffs and management's requirements, I know the tradition of neon side, but what does it mean that he keeps 10% of the shares for retirement?" ”

"It's very simple, he still wants to stay and play games."

"The founder of this company, as I understand it, is a person who has a passion for game development. ”

"So ......"

Gu Miao muttered: "Reserve 1% of his shares that will not be diluted, and use it as a symbol, right?" ”

OK!

This was Comrade Vespa's reply after receiving instructions from the headquarters to start the fifth round of negotiations with the president.

The other side accepted the treaty.

But the purchase price also reached an unprecedented 346.5 million yen, equivalent to nearly 18 million yuan.

Gu Miao reluctantly signed the agreement, and then took the foreign exchange channel from the bank to complete this cross-border and cross-industry acquisition.

Eventually, the neon game developer, called "スプライ布ゲーム", changed its name to "Elf" Studio.

Wanbao Computer Technology Co., Ltd., abbreviated as Wanbao Games, registered in Jiangchuan, completed the acquisition of a controlling stake in the "Elf" studio, which was relocated to Jiangchuan.

It's a pity......

Of the development team of about 40 people, only half of them were willing to work in Jiangchuan, and the remaining half chose to leave with "severance pay".
