I Won a Prize of 100 Million at the Beginning, and I Became a Capital Boss

Chapter 260 The Richest Man's Meeting Invitation!
On April 4, WeChat canceled the WeChat appreciation function on the ios side and replaced it with a QR code. On April 19, WeChat announced the cancellation of the QR code appreciation function and completely closed the appreciation function.

We-media writers all pointed their finger at Apple, thinking that the high "Apple tax" forced WeChat to cancel the appreciation function on the ios side.According to Apple's regulations, the purchase of virtual items on the ios platform must use Apple's Apple Pay channel, so that Apple has to share 30% of the revenue.

Bluestar Games' "PUBG: Moblile" needs to pay the Apple tax on the ios channel. Goole Play has not yet mandatory to charge 30% of the share. It turns a blind eye to some apps that use in-app payment methods to bypass Goole Play. one eye.

When domestic Apple users play the mobile game version of "Peace Elite", the price of buying the game skin is more expensive than that of Android users, because the game developer is not willing to pay the 30% share and buy the membership price of NEXT Music Group is also like this.

Many domestic application developers have suffered from Apple for a long time, and directly support WeChat, hoping that WeChat can be tough with Apple.I can do without Apple, but I can't do without WeChat, but Penguin finally relented.

Zheng Wentong hopes that Penguin can fight against Apple, and then promote the instant messaging application Weishu on a large scale, taking advantage of the trend to occupy a wave of the market.Byte later launched its own social software, Duoshan, but it quickly fell silent.

Just when Apple and WeChat were fighting each other, a mobile game called "The Wrath of Allard" was quietly launched on the App Store and the Android App Store.

The content of this game can be said to be a one-to-one restoration of the Penguin game "Dungeon". The most surprising thing is that the spokesperson of this game is actually DNF game anchor Baby Rising Sun, but this game does not advertise itself as a DNF player. It is a horizontal fighting mobile game.

Penguin immediately noticed this mobile game, couldn’t sit still immediately, and asked all major app stores to remove the mobile game, Penguin was not convinced, I always copied other people’s games, why did I encounter someone else’s plagiarism today when i play?
The App Store was very cooperative, and quickly removed the game, and Penguin’s App Store could not find the game. However, other domestic Android app stores had an ambiguous attitude and did not remove the game immediately.

Penguin has already begun to prepare materials to sue the game operator and developer of "Arad's Wrath".

When netizens read the news, they felt overjoyed and lamented that Penguin also has today. The game launched by Penguin, Hero Kill imitates Three Kingdoms Kill, Penguin Speed ​​imitates Go-Kart, Penguin Fantasy imitates Fantasy Westward Journey, and Penguin Hall imitates BNB .

Back then, nexon sued Penguin Hall for allegedly plagiarizing its gameplay, character images, scene art, etc., but relying on Penguin’s strong legal team, Nexon still lost the case, and this is how it became known as “Dongli Pizza Hut”.

Penguin's legal department wins more than [-]% of the lawsuits in Dongli District, but it is about [-]-[-] in other cities. The game developer and operator of "Arad's Wrath" is Yingying Network. If Penguin's legal department wants to sue, it can only go to Puhai to sue. The Dongli District Court cannot accept it.

Just like other companies suing Penguin for plagiarism, Penguin is headquartered in Dongli District, so you can only go to Dongli District to sue for a reason.

Kaiying Network was not in a hurry, and a pair of soldiers came to cover up the situation. However, after Penguin prepared to sue Yingying Network, it made the game "Arad's Wrath" even more popular. Downloads skyrocketed.

The share ratio between other Android game manufacturers and app stores is generally 8:2 or 7:3 by default. For the mobile game "Arad's Wrath", the share rate of major mobile app stores is as high as 40%. Users who play DNF games They are not short of money, as long as the lawsuit is not over, it is impossible for these app stores to remove the game "Arad's Wrath".

At the end of April, Microsoft announced the acquisition of Bluestar Games at a price of US$4 billion. The transaction was completed in the form of cash and stock. The largest shareholder of Bluestar Games, Slope Investment, will receive US$54 billion in cash , Tonglu Investment Fund will get shares worth 40 billion U.S. dollars.

Because this transaction is completed through an offshore company registered in the Cayman Islands through Slope Investment, only tax declaration is required, and no tax is required.

Microsoft also announced the details of the transaction. Microsoft first paid 22.5 billion US dollars + 13.5 billion stocks to acquire 66.67% of the equity, and then paid the remaining 18 billion US dollars before May [-] next year.

This acquisition also affected Bai Xiaolu, who was filming, because everyone noticed that Bai Xiaolu held 20% of Tonglu Investment Fund, so Bai Xiaolu indirectly held 2.7 million US dollars of Microsoft stock.

When the financial reporter went to Hengdian to interview Bai Xiaolu, Bai Xiaolu was a little confused. It was probably the first time she received an interview request from a financial reporter.

When a reporter asked Bai Xiaolu about Microsoft's acquisition of Bluestar Games, Bai Xiaolu replied: "I don't know much about investment, because I don't care about money, and I don't have much money in my card."

The reporter did not give up, "Then if you send a red envelope in a WeChat group, or when you go shopping, how do you pay for it?"

"I still have pocket money, and I usually use credit cards when buying things." Bai Xiaolu replied.

A netizen nicknamed "Shuangshuang Bookworm" commented on this report, "I guess Bai Xiaolu's pocket money starts at least seven figures, so she has no money in her card, which is actually two different things from our card. "

Netizens can only envy Bai Xiaolu's good luck. With the help of her boyfriend to invest together, the initial investment of 1000 million has now been replaced by an excess return of 2.7 million US dollars. Netizens are now starting to speculate when Bai Xiaolu will retire from the entertainment industry.

Just like netizens commented, if I win a lottery of 1000 million yuan and get a monthly salary of [-] yuan, I will not be interested in continuing to work.The purpose of going to work is to earn money, not for ideals. Since I have already earned money, why do I continue to work? My ideal is not to go to work.

Yang Zi couldn't help asking her best friend, Bai Xiaolu said: "As an actor, my career has just started, I think filming is actually quite interesting, and I don't plan to retire immediately, but the number of plays I will take every year will definitely be less. You can spend more time doing what you want to do.”

After the announcement of Microsoft's acquisition, the person who regrets the most is Cai Haoyu from MiHoYo Technology.When the Los Angeles studio invested by Slope began to produce "PUBG", Zheng Wentong invited Cai Haoyu to participate in the development together. Cai Haoyu focused all his energy on "Honkai 3" at that time, and Zheng Wentong did not explain the content of the game to him, so he refused. Invited by Zheng Wentong.

In June 16, after "PUBG" was launched, Cai Haoyu regretted it once, and after Microsoft acquired Bluestar Games, Cai Haoyu regretted it even more.At the beginning, MiHoYo Technology only needed to invest tens of millions of dollars, and at least it could return hundreds of millions of dollars in return.

Zheng Wentong comforted Cai Haoyu, "Mr. Cai, the game "Yuan Shen" that you approved and developed in January this year is very playable, no less than "PUBG". The publicity and distribution channels are still there, and we may also acquire other game companies to compete with Penguin’s game business.”

Cai Haoyu asked Zheng Wentong: "There are no outsiders here, and now the market is saying that you are behind the back of Kaiying Network's development of "Arad's Wrath", just to fight Penguin. Is there such a thing?"

Zheng Wentong categorically denied, "This is pure fiction. Although Penguin and I didn't get along very well, NEXT Music Group and Penguin Music are competitors. Before Microsoft acquired Blue Star Games, I also made an offer to Penguin. If Penguin is willing to buy Bluestar Games for US$60 billion, I can also sell the company to it, but Penguin only wants to use RMB to buy it, so I will definitely not agree."

In the current economic situation, US dollars can be exchanged for RMB at any time, but it is very difficult for RMB to be exchanged for US dollars in large quantities.The four large-scale consortiums that previously bought, bought and bought overseas have taken the initiative to shrink their business this year, giving up the practice of aggressively acquiring assets overseas.

Even if Slope Investment intends to acquire Zhongchu Machinery Group in Nanjun City, Zheng Wentong has no intention of converting US dollars into RMB. Zheng Wentong can pledge the Microsoft shares held by Tonglu Investment Fund to complete syndicated loans from Deutsche Bank, Credit Suisse, etc. .Slope investments can still continue to hold a large amount of US dollar assets.

Principal Wang contacted Zheng Wentong. Zheng Wentong thought that Principal Wang was worried about the PGC Global Finals. "Don't worry, Microsoft's acquisition of Bluestar Games will not affect the holding of this year's PGC Global Finals."

Principal Wang doesn't care about the PGC finals now. After all, Wanda has experienced a lot of turmoil this year. He was a little embarrassed to speak up, and said to Zheng Wentong: "My dad asked me to make an appointment with you, Yanjing or Puhai are fine. , he wants to discuss a business with you."

Principal Wang was a bit uncomfortable. He and Zheng Wentong were friends of the same generation, and the two had a good personal relationship. After Zheng Wentong bought the world-limited Koenigsegg One of 1, Principal Wang directly borrowed it to drive it for a few months.

In January of this year, the gap between the two people widened in business. Zheng Wentong was directly elected as one of the top ten economic figures of the year, and President Wang did not get the nomination award in the end.

When President Wang talks about cooperation with other business leaders, others always remember to say hello to the richest man.After Microsoft acquired Bluestar Games, everyone knew that the slope department had money, but Wanda was short of money. Zheng Wentong could discuss business cooperation with Wang Shoufu, which made President Wang feel a little uncomfortable.

Zheng Wentong knew that Wanda was planning to sell its cultural tourism or hotel business, and it happened that Slope Investment had money in hand, so it approached Zheng Wentong.Zheng Wentong was thinking, is it a good deal to buy the Wanda Hotel now?
