Chapter 718 Morgan's Lament

Chapter 708 Morgan's Lament

"Heh, I knew those old guys were unreliable. Even those guys in Japan knew to fight for it, but they didn't react at all. They're so stupid. Giving the game world to them was the biggest mistake. Expecting them to develop the game world is a joke. Look how long it's been, and Panasonic has already obtained the production license for the dance machine. They know how terrifying the expansion of the Internet Cafe Alliance is, and they know how huge ASUS's personal computer orders are, but they just don't want to bow down. These guys are really laughable!" After learning about the cooperation between Panasonic and ASUS, Morgan couldn't help but sigh. If the game world had stepped in first, Panasonic wouldn't have had a chance. But these guys were too stupid, unwilling to bow down, or rather, they didn't see this point, so they missed the opportunity.

"Those guys in the gaming world have become too stubborn. They haven't even considered cooperating with ASUS or obtaining the production license for the dance machine. All they care about is the gaming world's own research and development and production. In the past, John was guiding their research and development, but now that they've been acquired, these guys have gone completely off track. I even think they've lost their minds. They're not developing based on the market, but on their own ideas. This applies to game consoles, and it applies to game production as well. I really don't understand these guys." If anyone understands the gaming world best, Jimmy is one of them, after all, he controls Morgan's information department.

“Jimmy, do you think we could help those Rockefeller guys sell the game world? If things continue like this, the game world is headed for destruction. Although it has nothing to do with us, we can still make a small profit by selling the game world. At the same time, it can also relieve the pressure on John, that little fox. Wall Street has been acting very strangely lately, and so has San Francisco, and you could even say California. Some guys are trying to scheme against John.”

"It's difficult, very difficult. They haven't completely given up yet; they still fantasize about turning the tables one day." Jimmy paused here. He was familiar with the situation on Wall Street and in California. He was puzzled by the timing of the disturbances, because they weren't all from Taiwan; some were fools, lured by the profits of the internet cafe alliance. In short, these guys were after the internet cafe alliance, and they were all shady characters.

Behind these guys, you can vaguely see the actions of oil capital and donkeys. In Morgan's eyes, this is playing with fire and challenging the rules. However, Morgan can't interfere in such matters because someone has already tacitly approved it.

"Let's try to meet with Rockefeller first and hear his opinion. If he doesn't object, then we can talk to John, that little fox, and hear his opinion. After all, that little fox knows Japan best. Those guys on Wall Street are laughing at John; they're just being stupid."

"Boss, I'm afraid they won't accept our good intentions. At least those guys still have illusions, still thinking that the game world can make further progress in the upcoming battles. They're still pinning their hopes on their new generation of game consoles!"

"Let's talk first. Whether it works out or not, we just need to fulfill our responsibilities as 'friends.' Although I'd like to watch those guys fail, now is not the time. Our target is Japan. We can't let these guys suffer any accidents because of the game world. And don't you think this is the best opportunity? Not only can we sell the game world for a high price, but we can also lower the guard of those guys in Japan. They're not eager to buy the United States, so let's give them a little chance."

Upon hearing his boss's words, Jimmy suddenly realized that his boss wanted to use the sale of the game world to scheme against those guys in Japan. While the idea was good, he didn't have a high opinion of it, especially since the game world already had too many problems. However, since his boss had spoken, Jimmy still had to take action and contact Rockefeller for his boss.

Rockefeller soon appeared before Morgan. Seeing Morgan's calm demeanor, Rockefeller couldn't help but sigh and say, "Morgan, are you sure you can help us?"

"I can definitely help, but it depends on whether you're willing to accept it. What I mean is, you should abandon the game world and sell it directly to those guys in Japan. These guys have been clamoring to buy the US, so we'll give them a chance. You're not like those fools who think the game world can be revived, are you? I don't have high hopes for you. Besides, if you don't sell the game world quickly this time, its market value will drop again. To be honest, I really look down on the game world and your bunch. Panasonic was able to approach that little fox John and reach a cooperation agreement, but you haven't done anything. Now I think you should know when to quit while you're ahead and get rid of the game world as soon as possible, otherwise it will just be stuck in your hands. If you have no problems, we can talk to that little fox John and hear his thoughts on who to sell the game world to and how to get a good price for it." As Morgan finished speaking, Rockefeller sighed and said, "I have no objection, but I'm afraid those guys won't agree. I've said before that the situation in the game world is not good, but those guys are still not giving up, and there's nothing I can do. However, it wouldn't be a bad thing if we could sell it for a high price! But do you think those guys in Japan would really buy the game world? They've already mastered their own technology?"

"That's why we need to hear John's opinion. He's the only one who truly understands those guys in Japan. Didn't you see that they even licensed the dance machine directly to Panasonic? You wouldn't be like those foolish guys on Wall Street, thinking that John's vision is no longer sharp and that he's made a lot of wrong decisions, would you?" At this point, the Morgan tycoon couldn't help but smile calmly. Nowadays, there are quite a few voices like this on Wall Street, and even within Morgan, there are such foolish voices.

"Do you think I'm stupid? John's judgment has failed him. I'm afraid this guy is trying to scam people again. He's got some kind of conspiracy. Otherwise, why would this little fox go to Lanai Island? Not only are there these foolish voices on Wall Street, but the situation in California has also changed. Some foolish guys have already angered this little fox!"

"It seems you're not entirely ignorant. I just don't understand how such a bastard could appear among your group. If John were easy to deal with, things wouldn't be like this now. I don't think you have the ability to do anything to such a monster, to suppress this little fox. If things continue like this, the consequences will be unimaginable."

“Morgan, there’s no use in telling me this. I can’t control this matter, and there are a lot of shady characters behind it. I don’t want to offend those guys, at least not now. If they want to fight John, let them. I just need to protect my own interests. I won’t get involved in their affairs.”

"Hehe, this isn't something you can do as you please. Even if you don't want to get involved, it won't change anything. When things reach that point, you won't have a say. I think we should prepare in advance. At least you need to deal with Game World first to reduce your own pressure. I don't believe you'll just watch Game World collapse. Giving up is the best option. You don't have John's foresight, you can't do what he does. John can give up everything when it's time to give up, but you can't. Remember when you wanted to acquire Game World? John sold it without hesitation. When you wanted the mobile phone factory, John still sold it. But with you, there's always this hesitation. You don't have much time left. If Game World doesn't get enough market share by the end of the summer, it will collapse. At that time, your losses will be huge."

"I know that all too well, but I can't make that decision. There are always some people who think there's still a chance!" Rockefeller also wanted to give up the game world and sell it, but many people were against it, and they still held onto their illusions.

"Then kick them out. I don't believe you don't have the ability. If those guys don't want to accept it, kick them out. I believe you can control everything. As long as you can get absolute shares, you can talk to John, that little fox, and sell the game world, this useless thing. For you, it's just a useless thing right now."

These words may sound hurtful, but they are the truth. For Rockefeller and his team, the game world was a double-edged sword—tasteless to eat but a pity to throw away. And all of this was caused after they took over. If it wasn't resolved, they would have to pay a considerable price.

"Alright, I'll listen to you. However, since you, Morgan, are willing to step in, then this matter will be left to you to handle. I believe that with your relationship with John, you can easily resolve this. As long as you succeed, I have no objections. Just as you said, the game world has become a burden, but even so, those guys are still unwilling to let go, which is the most troublesome thing. If this continues, I'm afraid we will also be implicated. At that time, these guys will probably think of you, Morgan, and you won't be able to refuse then. Those guys will find all sorts of reasons to get you to help them."
