The Rebirth of the Male God Starts From Playing Games

  Chapter 100 99. What? Do you want to buy Apple?

  After returning home, Cao Yang tossed and turned and could not sleep.

  It’s not because you’re right to take off and jump to the boss, and you can’t buy his company.

  It was the acquisition proposal proposed by Cheng Yue today, which reminded Cao Yang of something.

  Some possibilities.

  Since he was reborn and successfully took down the Penguin, is it possible to look farther and buy things that may not be reachable in the previous life?

  Speaking of it, now Cao Yang has encountered an unprecedented golden age——

  The Nasdaq bubble burst in the United States, and the stock market collapsed. It is expected that it will not recover until 2002.

  Furthermore, the upcoming September 11 event in two months will make the United States even worse.

In Cao Yang’s impression, after the end of 9/11 that year, the U.S. stock market plummeted, especially the Nasdaq, which plummeted from more than 4,000 points before the bubble burst in 2000 to around 800 points in 2002, almost shrinking by 4 /5.

  Take advantage of this time to acquire some companies in the United States that will be useful to Bomi in the future?

  Cao Yang feels that this possibility is very high.

  As a gamer, Cao Yang thought of the company [Blizzard] for the first time.

  Blizzard can be said to be one of the pinnacle companies in the game industry. There is a saying called [produced by Blizzard, it must be a boutique]. The valuation of Blizzard this year does not seem to be very high.

  The specific Cao Yang can't remember clearly, but you can ask someone to ask.

  If Blizzard can be taken down, then based in the United States in the future, to sell games through Blizzard, it should be a good way to go global.

  A game called "World of Warcraft" will sweep the world in the future.

If you want to eat the game engine, you can first acquire EpicGame, which has not grown up, and integrate it with your own Aier game platform in the future to become the world's largest game platform before steam. .

  ……

  The more he thought about it, the more excited he became, Cao Yang couldn't sleep and sat up from the bed.

   Pei Siqing's breath came from behind.

   "What's wrong? Insomnia?" Miss Mine rubbed her eyes.

   "It's okay, your feet are still not good, take a good rest. I temporarily thought of something that needs to be recorded."

  Cao Yang stood up, walked to the study room next door, turned on the computer, and skilfully checked the wall.

  In the middle of the night, Cao Yang's two eyes flickered.

  He thought of a person.

  ……

  The next day, I still eat hot pot in the same place.

  IDG's head of Asia, Xiong Xiaoge was a little surprised.

   "What? How did Mr. Cao think of asking me to eat hot pot?"

   "Hey, that's it." Cao Yang put a piece of cooked beef in his bowl and said with a smile, "I have something to ask Mr. Xiong."

   "Don't dare to ask for advice."

  Compared to the previous meetings, Xiong Xiaoge looks much happier now.

  This seems to be the first time Cao Yang has contacted him in the past year.

  Xiong Xiaoge’s previous proposal to invest in Bomi was rejected by Cao Yang. Will this time turn for the better?

   "If Mr. Cao wants to raise funds, IDG will definitely be very happy."

A year ago, Xiong Xiaoge’s valuation of Bomi was about 1 billion. Up to now, when Bomi’s game platform came out, the valuation had to be increased a few times. Now Xiong Xiaoge judges by himself, Bomi The valuation should be 2 to 3 billion.

It is also a miracle that the Penguin company came back to life in the hands of Cao Yang. At first, everyone tried to break their heads for the commercialization of Penguin. Now Cao Yang relies on a game platform to easily break the game, and by the way, the valuation of Penguin has also been increased. .

  IDG all regretted it. They left the market too early, otherwise, they should be able to make a lot of money by staying in Penguin's equity.

  According to Xiong Xiaoge’s estimation, Penguin’s company is less than one or two billion.

  I am afraid it will be higher in the future.

  "Bomi is working very well now." Cao Yang smiled, "I actually want to ask, what should I do if I want to acquire or invest in a US company."

"Um?"

  Xiong Xiaoge raised his head in surprise.

Has Bomi swelled to this point?

   "Which one do you want to acquire?"

   "Well...I want to be Apple's major shareholder, can I?" Cao Yang asked.

   "Puff...cough cough cough..."

Xiong Xiaoge was choked and coughed, and quickly took a sip of the beer beside him.

   "Brother Xiong, you are also Chinese. I can actually see that you are very caring about the country's enterprises and did not ask you as a foreigner."

   "It's not the problem..."

  Xiong Xiaoge waved his hand.

  He is really concerned about the development of Chinese enterprises, otherwise he would not encourage IDG to invest in China.

   However, what Cao Yang said was a bit beyond his cognition.

"I remember that APPLE's stock price seemed to be at $7 yesterday. The overall valuation... probably more than $7 billion. Now the majority shareholder with the most equity is about 6 to 7 percent. If you want to become a major shareholder, It’s less than 600 million."

  6 billion is US dollars, which is almost worth 5 billion soft sister coins at the current exchange rate.

   "Uh..." Cao Yang didn't expect to ask for so much money.

  He thought he could handle almost 1 billion soft sister coins.

  After reaching an agreement with China Mobile in April, Penguin can already support itself through mobile value-added services, and even generate a profit of one or two million per month.

  In other words, Bomi’s game platform no longer needs to supply penguins, and it can create a net profit of about 20 million for the company every month.

  Now there are more than 60 million funds on the Bomi account.

  Bomi is valued at 2 billion by the company’s financial department.

  If Bomi is mortgaged to the bank, at least one billion yuan can be loaned out.

   "What? Want to buy the bottom?" Xiong Xiaoge shook his head, "I don't recommend entering at this time. The Nasdaq bubble burst, and it hasn't recovered until now. The ghost knows when it will fall.

  If I were you, I had so much money to continue to expand reproduction. Wouldn’t it be good to make more games? "

   "In fact, what I think is that our country is relatively backward in terms of hardware. If we can become a major shareholder of Apple, is it possible..."

   "It is impossible."

Xiong Xiaoge shook his head, "Do you know the Vanassen Agreement? A group of capitalist countries held a collusion meeting on patent blockade. Apple's core technology is definitely the top priority in the United States, and even its ally Dongdao cannot get it. , And it is even more impossible to give to China.

  Even if you become a major shareholder of Apple, it is completely impossible to get their core technology. "

Uh……

   Cao Yang, who was still holding a trace of fantasy, was poured with cold water.

  Sure enough, I am still too young.

   Didn’t Lenovo acquire IBM’s core technology when it acquired IBM?

  "But if you really want to acquire a U.S. company, I can introduce you to a law firm that is much more professional than me."

   "Okay, thank you."

  ……

  The two ate hot pot for a while, and then they separated until late at night.

  When parting, Cao Yang asked more:

  "Brother Xiong, if I want to hire you to be the head of the strategy department at Bomi, the vice president of the company, would you like it?"

  ……
