Chapter 234: Imperative [29/100]

"Mr. Hu, can you reveal what your company is interested in? Profits? I think it's not, your company is already the most profitable giant in the world..." Mike Mohan said slowly.

"To be honest, we are interested in classic IPs under Blizzard. I believe you also know that our company is slewing on a global scale recently. The film and television industry and the game industry are all in our plan." Hu Lin smiled faintly. The size of both parties is no longer the same level. Hu Lin also realized what it means to be rich is an old man. In the Western world, money is even more of a good thing.

"Can..." As soon as Mike spoke, Hu Lin interrupted: "Sorry, this involves the business secrets and strategic deployment of our company."

Mike smiled awkwardly, paused and asked tentatively: "How many shares are your company's plan to acquire in Blizzard?"

"51%." Hu Lin answered concisely.

"What?" Mike looked at the other party in shock, and his changing pupils showed that he was angry: "You are going to destroy Blizzard, you are going to destroy the entire game industry, you are demons!!!"

"Don't be impatient, Mr. Mike." Hu Lin said calmly: "We are not going to destroy the game industry, on the contrary, Huasheng Technology is going to subvert and reshape the game industry."

It's subversion again!

Reshape again!

The angry Mike Mohan calmed down. These two words were too impactful and shocking. Huasheng Group specialized in doing this. Obviously, these two words were quite important when spoken from Hu Lin.

Hu Lin was very satisfied with Mike's expression change and was expected, and said: "Mr. Mike, even if I don't believe it, I still want to remind you that in the future, in the industry, whether the main business is the console or the PC side like your company, if you do not rely on third-party game developers under Huasheng Group, the microcosm of Hollywood's five majors today is a portrayal of its future destiny."

Looking at Mike's shocked expression, Hu Lin continued: "Now that Huasheng Group initiated an acquisition invitation to your company is measured by a value of US$75.6 billion. In the future, it may be US$7.56 billion or even US$756 million to acquire Blizzard, and it is a full acquisition. Yes, Huasheng Technology is bound to win, and the difference is only now or in the future."

Mike didn't expect that the other party was so strong and gave no room for anything. After a while, Hu Lin smiled and said, "Actually, you have a huge misunderstanding about Huasheng. Our company is not like Vivendi. To put it bluntly, Huasheng Group looks down on the profits of the game industry at this stage. What Huasheng needs to do is to make this cake bigger."

Mike Mohan was speechless by the other party's words. Isn't the profits of the game industry big? Of course it's big, and it's not ordinary big, but compared to a giant like Huasheng Group, which can't even make money printing machines, it seems that there is nothing wrong with him saying this, especially the nanoc treatment technology.

Hu Lin looked at Mike Leiran and added: "In fact, Huasheng Technology has acquired your company, but it will never interfere in Blizzard's game business. To be honest, what we are interested in is the in-depth commercial development of IP value in new fields, and this will not prevent you from continuing to take charge of Blizzard's ship."

In-depth development of new IP fields?

Mike Mohan muttered in his heart, could Blizzard’s three signature IPs have untapped new value not discovered? So even a behemoth like Huasheng Technology took action.

After thinking for a long time in my mind, Mike couldn't think of it.

"I'm sorry, Mr. Hu, this matter is of great importance. I'm sorry that I can't give you a definite answer at the moment. We need to discuss it within the company." Mike Mohan said tactfully after finishing thinking.

"Of course, this should be the case. I hope your company's decision-making team can make a decision for Blizzard's bright future. We will leave a contact person in Anaheim, hoping that we can meet again soon." Hu Lin said with a smile, and then stood up and prepared to say goodbye.

Leaving three people in the California office, Hu Lin took off with other acquisition teams to Rennes, France, Europe, to find another well-known multinational game developer, Ubisoft. Even though he had never heard of the words "Ubisoft", "bitches", and "buy bugs and get games", he must have heard of the name "Assassin's Creed". This series of game masterpieces was developed by Ubisoft.

In the next month, Hu Lin and his acquisition team flew around the world. He met six of the heads of the top ten game developers in the world. The rest were also ready to meet, and they all said the same thing - initiated a merger and acquisition invitation.

Major well-known game developers held urgent internal meetings to deal with the invitation to launch an acquisition by Huasheng Group.

The most tangled ones are undoubtedly R Star, Ubisoft, Blizzard, and Square, the four game developers who developed the "Final Fantasy" series. They all saw from the negotiations with Hu Lin that Huasheng Technology is bound to win the four developers. She is targeted by such a giant and basically has no ability to resist. Ubisoft found Penguin Dad last time to organize Vivendi's merger and acquisition, but this time they have to face may not even be willing to mess with Penguin. Even if the Penguin takes action, it may not be able to block Huasheng, which is bound to win.

Hu Lin was also very similar to their routine, holding a carrot stick and rituals first, and then a soldier. He invited a good merger and acquisition first. At the same time, he made a promise that they thought was a big pie, and finally used the capital market to make a malicious acquisition in real time.

During this period, the game industry has been disrupted by a Huasheng Group that broke out halfway through. Both the news media and game players are continuing to pay attention. No one would have thought that Huasheng Technology was actually interested in the game industry.

Before this, who would have thought that a technology giant that plays high-tech, hardware and heavy assets would enter the gaming field?

However, this is in line with the usual unpredictable style of behavior of Huasheng Technology. To outsiders, this kind of wild behavior is a typical Huasheng behavior, because before, every new move of Huasheng Technology was unexpected. From film and television entertainment to basic new materials to the electronics industry to the medical field, it is reasonable to suddenly enter the game field even if it is unexpected.

The outside world is speculating and analyzing the reason for the move of Huasheng Technology. Shortly after the news broke out, in a while of surprise and confusion, the outside world immediately realized a key point. Huasheng Technology has made new big moves. This is to acquire the five major Hollywood players and extend its "claws" to the gaming field. Huasheng Technology's money-spending behavior throughout the world must not be to prove that it is rich and willful to do whatever it wants.
