Chapter 21
There was no news about the office building for a while, but there was a piece of news that caused a huge uproar in Longguo.
That day, when Su Chengyang was writing code, the phone rang.
“Chairman, the news of our company’s acquisition of Activision Blizzard has been reported in China, and it is now hotly discussed online.”
“Oh? Really?”
Su Chengyang closed the coding software, opened the browser, clicked on a portal website, and sure enough, he saw a headline on the homepage titled”Breaking news, the new boss of global gaming giant Activision Blizzard is actually a Dragon!”
Don’t mention it, this title is quite attractive.
At least Su Chengyang, who is not a Blizzard fan, couldn’t help but want to click in and take a look, not to mention netizens.
Activision Blizzard is the leader of the gaming industry, a god-like existence. Now let me tell you that this awesome company has a new boss, and the new boss is still a Dragon. With such an eye-catching title, how can you not click in and take a look.
Su Chengyang clicked on the link, and the webpage opened quickly.
“According to people familiar with the matter, Activision Blizzard���The parent company behind the company, Vidiwang, reached a deal with Oasis Capital to transfer 52% of Vidiwang’s shares to Oasis Capital for US$3.1 billion. The deal has now been completed.”
“It is reported that Oasis Capital is an investment company established less than 4 years ago. Its founder, Su Chengyang, is a Chinese….”
Next is the introduction of Su Chengyang and Oasis Capital.
Public information such as investments in YouTube, Twitter, Facebook, etc. was sorted out again. At the end of the article, a list of last year’s Forbes Global Rich List was listed, and Su Chengyang was on the list. At that time, his wealth was estimated at 1.7 billion US dollars.
This wealth valuation should be the amount of money he made from selling his shares in YouTube and Twitter.
“I have seen the news”
“By the way, Chairman, Jingdong called and a meeting will be held at 9:30 tomorrow morning.”
“OK, I know.”
After hanging up the phone, Su Chengyang moved the mouse to the comment area below.
“Damn, today is not April Fools’ Day.”
“You are not making this up, are you? Is Vivendi willing to sell it?”
“How is it impossible? Haven’t you heard about the financial crisis? Vivendi selling Activision Blizzard shares in exchange for funds is also a normal business behavior”
“Tsk tsk, Blizzard finally got out of Vivendi’s hole”
“Haha, I didn’t expect that Blizzard would be acquired by our Dragon Country Capital tycoon one day. It’s really fucking encouraging.”
“So, Blizzard games can now be considered domestic games?”
“”I think so.”
Almost all the comments in the comment area were likes and support, and the number of comments increased at a rapid rate.
When Su Chengyang looked at the comments, there were only more than 2,000. After about ten minutes of reading, the number of comments increased to more than 8,000.
“Awesome take off!”
“I heard that Su Chengyang is still in college? Is he worth billions of dollars?”
“Probably graduated this year.”
“Awesome! Look at how they become world’s super rich right after graduating from college. Look at me, I’m really living a fucking life.”
“Upstairs +1″…
Seeing this, Su Chengyang couldn’t help but grin.
He was one of them in the past.
If he hadn’t been reborn, he might be the same as the netizens above.
Sure enough, opportunity is the most important thing.
After reading the comments for a while, Su Chengyang closed the website and opened other portals one by one, even game websites, almost all of which were reporting.
3.1 billion US dollars, such a large acquisition transaction, not to mention that this is a financial crisis, even if it is not, it is still a merger and acquisition that shocked the capital circle.
Before this, an investment of two or three hundred million US dollars was considered a big deal and the news media rushed to report it, not to mention a transaction of 3.1 billion US dollars…….
Hangzhou.
Wangyi company building.
Ding Sanshi, who saw the news report, immediately convened a management meeting to discuss the impact of this incident on Wangyi.
“You’ve seen the news, right?”
Everyone nodded. Even if they hadn’t seen such big news, they’d have heard about it.
“Let’s talk!”
“This matter has its pros and cons. The pros are that you don’t have to deal with the foreigners, but directly with Oasis Capital. As for the cons, the boss of Oasis Capital is a Chinese from Longguo, and he is a young man. If he knows the situation of World of Warcraft in China, there may be changes in the agency of World of Warcraft.”
An executive said.
This sentence touched Ding Sanshi’s heart. He was not worried about anything else, but he was worried that the agency of World of Warcraft he had discussed with Blizzard before might change.
Now World of Warcraft can be said to be the most profitable game in the world, so he is naturally jealous.
After it was reported that the cooperation between The 9 and Blizzard would not be renewed after the expiration, he immediately set up a negotiation team and went to the United States to talk with Blizzard.
In the end, Blizzard agreed that after the expiration, the agency rights of Blizzard’s games in Longguo would be handed over to Wangyi. For this purpose, the two parties established a cooperative company Wangzhiyi.
Everything went well, and we only had to wait a few months. Now it was reported that there was a major change in Blizzard’s equity, and the new behind-the-scenes boss was actually a Chinese from Longguo.
Although there is no evidence that Blizzard will break the contract, Ding Sanshi has a bad intuition and always feels that something bad is going to happen.
“I don’t think it’s that serious. Oasis Capital is just an investment company and has no intention of operating games.”
“That is true, but the boss of Oasis Capital, Su Chengyang, is a Dragon Chinese. If it were you, after knowing the profitability of World of Warcraft, would you be willing to let others run the business on your behalf?”
“this…”
At this time, another executive in his forties, wearing a suit, spoke up:”Mr. Ding, I think we can contact Blizzard to get some information.”
“If Blizzard really wants to change the agent, then they should contact Oasis boss Su Chengyang directly and find a breakthrough from him.”
This statement was echoed by everyone.
Ding Sanshi thought about it and felt that this was the only way.
However, he was not in a good mood at the moment. The matter that was originally finalized had suddenly changed, and no one would be happy.
It must be said that Ding Sanshi has a strong business sense and sense of crisis. Dragon Boat
