Please make money.

Boss Jiang sat down, wrote and drew, and confirmed that he wanted to start a new business. Only then did he have the confidence to confront Alia even in the same industry.
"I've decided on a name for the game company. It's called Legend."
"Legend?" Barbara tilted her head. "Sounds familiar... I think I once invested in an entertainment company with the same name."
"…A duplicate name?"
"What's the big deal? I'll buy it and give it to you. Just merge it and it'll be done."
In fact, the founder of Legendary Entertainment established the company after raising US$5 million from a private equity fund.
And that private equity fund was Barbara's family business, and she could kick out the founder with ease.
What is the capital game? This is the ruthless capital game.
Private shareholders and hedge fund owners on Wall Street are at the top of the food chain.
Jiang Tianyi finally reached a new agreement with Barbara. She borrowed 5 million US dollars from Barbara and then "bought" Legendary Entertainment worth million.
The loan will be repaid within three years without interest. In return, Barbara will have a 10% dividend right and will not participate in any management.
Being able to get something for nothing to this extent is enough to show that Barbara truly loves Boss Jiang.
How much friendship is worth 500 million...
In this way, with just some capital operation, Legendary Entertainment, which belongs exclusively to Boss Jiang, has a valuation of 50 billion US dollars.
It seems that it is intended to compete head-on with Alia's AiShi Entertainment, and even the valuations are so close.
However, AiShi Entertainment has not produced any games, and even the Legend of Sword and Fairy has just obtained the copyright.
Legendary Entertainment may make movies again in the future, but currently it mainly wants to make online games.
In the foreseeable future, AiShi Entertainment and Legend Entertainment will not be at loggerheads with each other - maybe?
"Then in return, Jiang Yu, you know what I'm going to do."
"……don't want."
"That won't do." Barbara smiled evilly: "If you refuse, I will break the contract!"
"you--"
"You really want to have a fierce fight with that girl named Alia, right? If I don't give you this support, how much more time will it take you?"
After a moment, Boss Jiang, with a gloomy face, looked at his watch and walked into the lounge next door with Barbara.
This floor is Jiang Tianyi's territory. From the lounge to the large bedroom to the office area, it is spacious and bright.
Barbara changed into pajamas, lay down on the bed in Jiang Tianyi's lounge, and patted the edge of the bed.
Jiang Tianyi took a deep breath, gritted his teeth, picked up the weird novel about a domineering CEO, and sat down on the bed.
Barbara changed into a sleeping position and snapped her fingers, signaling Jiang Tianyi that he could start reading her bedtime story during the lunch break.
"Woman! You have aroused my interest!" The handsome boss Jiang had dead eyes and no emotion at all.
"No, no, no, be a little more cold, but with a little emotion. You are the domineering president, you have to have that kind of temperament."
Barbara pulled up her blindfold and said, "Jiang, think about it, replace the heroine with me."
"…If that happens I'll just want to catch you and spank you."
"I'm not opposed to that kind of play, even though I've never played it before - well, how about you switch to Alia?"
"...Woman - you have aroused my interest -"
“Wow, that’s what it feels like!”
Barbara put on her blindfold with satisfaction, and accompanied by Boss Jiang's bedtime story, she went towards her daydreaming goal.
Few people know about Barbara's habit, but the fact is that she can't sleep without someone by her side.
When she was nine years old, her mother Alba Jessica died in a car accident.
When he was ten years old, his father Zeppelin Randolph became ill due to worry and followed his mother.
From childhood to adulthood, Barbara was taken care of by the old butler and the head maid. Even her bad habit of reading novels with a flashlight in bed was developed by the old people.
More than ten years passed, the old housekeeper passed away, and the head maid was too old to accompany her everywhere.
Barbara actually values her friendship with Jiang Tianyi very much, and even went all the way to Donghuang to visit her under the guise of business.
Boss Jiang, a guy with a sharp tongue but a soft heart, actually has few friends.
She was happier than anyone else when Barbara came to visit, but that's just how she is. Even if her whole body was soft, her mouth was still hard and she would never admit it.
Straightforwardness overcomes tsundereness, and naturalness overcomes scheming. Isn't this another kind of wonderful food chain?
Boss Jiang read on until he was sure that Barbara had fallen asleep. He sighed, tucked the quilt in for her, and went out to continue working.
It's not easy to defeat the big devil Alia.
Barbara, a naive girl who was born in a wealthy family, sacrificed her parents to obtain the same 100,000-year soul ring as Alia, but her boss Jiang did not have it.
Her father’s previous experience and Aunt An’s strategic deterrence prevented her from resorting to any means other than commercial competition.
After waiting for a long time, Boss Jiang finally received a call from his secretary, who should have called earlier.
"Miss, something went wrong. Someone has offered us almost the same acquisition conditions."
Jiang Tianyi was silent for a moment: "...I'll come over now and probably arrive in the evening."
……
……
"Miss, something went wrong. Someone offered us almost the same acquisition conditions."
"Who dares to steal my things?!"
Alia's angry voice came from the other end of the phone: "Is it that stupid Kodick?"
"Ah, no, it's a company called King Entertainment."
"King Entertainment? King? Why would it appear at this time... Never mind, I won't go over there. Pay more money! Smash it down for me!"
Ailia wanted to go out, but it was not possible for her to leave for the time being.
She can definitely leave the country now, and it won't even waste time. She can leave whenever she wants.
But there are a lot of troublesome things involved behind the scenes. Alia hates trouble the most, and she is too lazy to bother with it unless it is urgent.
The simplest example is that Lele’s passport has been changed to a public service passport starting with S. Going abroad is not called going abroad, it’s called a mission dispatch…
After hanging up the phone, Alia flipped through the specific content sent by the secretariat, and then she knew what had happened.
MMORPG games have appeared!
The "Paradise" series, which was launched earlier, became popular overseas and sold well.
Aaliyah missed the big fish...
In the gaming industry, Alia is indeed the only dominant company now, but we can't say that others are fools who just stand there and do nothing.
Now that the industry has recovered and new growth points have emerged, how can we stand still?
So a large amount of hot money began to flow back into related industries, wanting to test the waters.
At that time, Alia was still busy celebrating the New Year, and one step wrong would lead to many steps wrong.
With something like games, the results can be seen in a month or two, and it’s very clear whether it’s a success or not.
Just like Chen Tianqiao back then, Xiao Chen spent all his family fortune and bought the agency of "Legend" for 300,000 yuan.
If you don’t have money for subsequent operations, then you can just make money out of nothing.
Use the legendary order to try out Dell's server, then use Dell's order to try out telecom broadband, and finally use the three orders to let Ubisoft be the distributor.
A month later, Xiao Chen, who had an income of 50 million yuan in his hands, finally had the confidence to say no.
Alia had been free for a month or two and nothing happened. From the time the online game appeared to the time when it started making a lot of money, it never stopped at all.
Fortunately, this does not hinder the hot sales of Alia's game consoles and stand-alone games. After all, even in the future, the consumer groups of the two parties will not completely overlap.
Only then did Alia understand why someone would compete with her for the deal. It turned out that they thought they could make money.
No one wants something that loses money even if it is given away for free.
If it's a profitable business, there are people who will do it even at the cost of their lives.
What's your little trumpet, Alia? Why can't I snatch it from you?
"Contact the acquisition team and increase the stakes to 100 million. Bring back all the glass shards!"
Nowadays, although online games have become popular and the gaming industry has recovered, consoles, handheld games and single-player games have also started to sell well.
But Activision is having a hard time, otherwise it wouldn't have planned to sell itself off.
It is easier for Alia to acquire a crappy gaming company than for her parents to acquire Advanced Micro Devices (AMD). There is no threshold for this.
After all, in today's gaming industry, even a former king like Atari has reached its size limit in the eyes of all walks of life.
Alia was busy until she got off work in the evening, and only then did she receive good news from the acquisition team.
They eventually spent $1360 million to acquire this adopted son from Vivendi Group, which was on the verge of bankruptcy.
Activision + Blizzard, a total of 1360 million, this money even includes their previous debts.
Alia said I don’t want Activision, I want Blizzard.
The acquisition team said that’s right, but when buying something, you can’t let them see that you want it.
It's like finding a bargain on antiques at a street stall. You want that, and then you bargain for this, and the other party will inadvertently give in.
In fact, the acquisition team has made two preparations. If this "little help" doesn't work, then another group will come and snatch Blizzard away.
But Alia obviously doesn't need to care about these twists and turns. She just needs to say what she wants.
1360 million US dollars, equivalent to almost million yuan, is currently the largest merger and acquisition case in the gaming industry.
"Okay, now that we have Activision, we can use it to make shooting games for the New Year. If that doesn't work, I can just change it to 300 million gun battle dreams."
Alia looked at her watch and even foresaw that she would be on the hot search list tomorrow.
Spending 100 million to buy a gaming company is willful and stupid. Currently, she is the only one with no other branches.
But before she could become a trending search, a new trending search took the lead and made Alia the second Wangpixie.
# Jiang's Group contributes to the largest game industry acquisition of this century: $1500 million to buy out "Legend"! Large-scale role-playing games may be the future of the industry? #
"……legend???"
2 Bei 460-Boss Jiang failed to win 2/2
World of Warcraft vs. Legend, and then Counter-Strike: Deus Ex, how could I have such a dream?
Alia’s first reaction was to be wary of the Kryptonian Immortal—damn it, don’t I know Boss Jiang’s character?
She will definitely make a lot of money to squeeze the game players dry!
The second reaction was that I couldn’t stop this…
"Look at the bright side, at least I can have new games to play."
Alia held up the document and looked at it against the light. "That's a legend. The legend of the paralysis ring and the dragon-slaying sword!"
"What are the Paralysis Ring and the Dragon Slayer Sword?"
"Game props."
“…Very impressive?”
"I don't know, but with my friendship with Boss Jiang, it shouldn't be a problem for you to secretly get some supermodel props for me to slaughter young children?"
"Ah... ah?"
Lele was stunned.
Fake business war: They actually make games too? Quick! Send an army of hackers to invade!
Real business war: ask the opposing boss for supermodel props, create a small account to kill the young, and torture the game players.
Judging from the effect alone, the latter may be more disgusting for gamers... maybe?
But is it possible? Now the gaming industry is our territory, and Jiang Tianxin is overstepping his boundaries.
