Three hundred and ninetieth chapters monthly profit is a loss
Chapter 396 The moon is profitable and then it is losing
SNK, most domestic players think it is a Korean company, but in fact it is an authentic Japanese company. In July 1978, it was established in Osaka, Japan. It was initially named New Japan Planning Company, and later changed its name in April 1986.
The name "s.n.k" as it became widely known in the future represented the surname of the main person in charge of the three companies, President Kawasaki.
Its main games include the "Metal Slug" series, "Legend of the Wolf" series, "Fist of the Dragon and Tiger" series, "Samurai Shodown" series, and of course, the most important masterpiece in the history of game fighting, "The King of Fighters" (also known as The King of Fighters).
) series, these are game masterpieces that all players talk about. Each game will accompany players throughout their school days, until now, and even in the future.
"Mr. Wu, since 'snk' is also a Japanese game company, why would it seek to cooperate with us?" Lin Feng asked in surprise. Nowadays, the Japanese industry is in a crusade against the "second world", why would "snk" be willing to take the risk?
Do not cooperate with yourself.
Mr. Wu smiled. During the Spring Festival, after Wu Zhaopu spent New Year's Eve at home, he took his girlfriend to travel to Japan for the Spring Festival, and completed the company's previous plan to acquire arcade games. Unexpectedly, the entire trip to Japan made him very depressed. Originally, he
I think the conditions offered by the "Second World" are extremely generous. After all, these games have passed their glory days and only remain in everyone's memory. Therefore, although Lin Feng has made remarks about "boycotting Japanese goods", in business terms,
, Wu Zhaopu believes that there will be a good harvest this time.
Unexpectedly, instead of gaining nothing, Wu Zhaopu was ridiculed by Japanese game manufacturers.
Frustrated, Wu Zhaopu unexpectedly received a call from the president of South Korea's "Playmore" company, admitting that he was willing to cooperate with "Second World" and sell its game copyrights to "Second World". And this "Playmore" company
The president is Kawasaki, the former president of “snk”.
After hearing Wu Zhaopu's explanation, Lin Feng was still stunned and a little confused.
"Director Lin, this is actually the case. In 2000, 'snk' had to sell 51% of the company's shares to the famous Japanese pachinko industry giant 'aruze' due to debts of 38 billion yen (approximately 2.87 billion yuan).
company. But later Kawasaki was cunning and took advantage of the trust of 'aruze' company to establish the current 'playmore' company and transferred all the game copyrights and character portrait rights of 'snk', as well as the trademark rights of "neogeo"
After joining this company, 'snk' filed for bankruptcy, and then Kawasaki purchased the original 'snk' building. It can be said that after this operation, Kawasaki not only cleared all its debts, but also retained all its original assets.
, becomes your own private property." Wu Zhaopu sighed.
What a trick to "escape the golden cicada"!
Lin Feng was also surprised when he heard this. This Kawasaki is a talent, and he actually came up with such a "golden cicada escapes his shell". It's amazing! No wonder everyone said that little Japan is cunning. However, the pachinko industry giant 'Aruze' company was so
If you play, will you give up and give up?
"Haha, of course not. The 'aruze' company can become a giant in Japan's pachinko industry. In addition to its own business talents, it also has a certain underworld background. This time it was set up by Kawasaki. Instead of reaping any benefits, it actually owed a lot of money.
How could he give up after being in debt of 38 billion yen? No, even though Kawasaki hid in South Korea, he was still being hunted by the 'aruze' company, who wanted to bring him back to Japan to enforce 'family law'. That's why he is now asking for help
We asked for help." Wu Zhaopu said with a smile.
Lin Feng secretly cursed that he deserved it. He really wanted money rather than his life. Is the Pachinko industry tycoon so easy to offend?
"By the way, where are the others?" Lin Feng asked. No matter how cunning this Kawasaki is, the game copyright of "snk" is what he likes and what he needs. After all, the products produced by "snk" are all high-quality products. Any one of its brands
Every game can cause a stir in the industry. Unfortunately, we should not have made the wrong choice to enter the hardware market, let alone enter the handheld market to compete with Nintendo for "internal strength" without sufficient strength. Otherwise, "snk"
This flag will never fall down.
"Boss, he has arrived in China. He has been living in the company dormitory these days, and now he is outside, just waiting for your summons, boss!" Wu Zhaopu said with a smile. This Kawasaki was chased by 'aruze' and was afraid of death.
So I hid in the "Second World". Firstly, in mainland China, the Japanese underworld did not dare to mess around; secondly, the security guards in the "Second World" made people feel at ease.
Lin Feng smiled and immediately let Kawasaki in.
"Mr. Lin, it's great to finally meet you. I have been waiting for you for three days!" Kawasaki almost burst into tears when he saw Lin Feng. He had not slept since he set up a trap to defraud the "aruze" company.
Have a good sleep. Especially not long ago, "snk" declared bankruptcy completely. After the "aruze" company discovered all his conspiracies, it issued a pursuit order for him. He fled from Japan to South Korea and finally to Shanghai.
Take a breath.
"Mr. Kawasaki, please take a seat." Lin Feng smiled slightly. Since Kawasaki is in this situation, his goal is not as simple as just obtaining the "SNK" game copyright.
"Mr. Lin..." Kawasaki had just sat down and couldn't wait to speak, but was interrupted by Lin Feng.
"Mr. Kawasaki, would you like some tea and a taste of our Chinese tea?" Lin Feng asked someone to offer him a cup of Longjing.
Kawasaki had no choice but to take a sip of tea. After some appreciation, he was about to speak again when he was interrupted again by Lin Feng.
"Mr. Kawasaki, what do you think of our company? How do you feel about our company these days?" Lin Feng naturally knows that Kawasaki is anxious, but the more anxious you are, the less anxious I am. It is you who are being hunted, not me. I can do it
Drag, but you can't drag!
"Well, that's right. Although 'Second World' has only been established for two years, its development in all aspects is no worse than that of ordinary Japanese companies." Although Kawasaki was repeatedly interrupted by Lin Feng, he could only answer Lin Feng's words helplessly.
It was still the same next time. Kawasaki wanted to speak many times, but was interrupted several times by Lin Feng. Wu Zhaopu looked on and smiled. This is also a very common business method, forcing the other party to lose patience, and finally expose the flaw in order to obtain the maximum profit.
.
"Mr. Lin, do you want to buy my 'playmore'?" Kawasaki couldn't help but roared. He didn't have so much time to wait here. If the members of the 'aruze' company came over at all costs, he could
He didn't want to die so early. Besides, his wife and children were still in Korea. Although the place was hidden, he was always worried in his heart, fearing that his wife and children would be found by 'aruze' members.
Although Lin Feng was sprayed with saliva by Kawasaki, he was not angry. He gently wiped the spit off his face and smiled knowingly with Wu Zhaopu.
Kawasaki fell into the trap!
"Mr. Kawasaki, how much do you want to sell your 'playmore' for?" Lin Feng asked sincerely.
"300 million U.S. dollars." Kawasaki gritted his teeth and said a number.
This number is not much. The copyrights and trademarks of all the games under the original "snk" are enough to be worth this price. But today is different from the past. If Kawasaki can sell "snk" to others at this price, it will not come looking for it.
I have to wait for myself for three days.
Lin Feng shook his head and rejected Kawasaki's proposal.
Kawasaki's face became even more anxious. He really didn't want to stay in China any longer. He just wanted to sell the company as soon as possible, sell it for a good price, and then go to South Korea to pick up his wife and children before flying away with them.
"Mr. Lin, US$270 million cannot be lowered." Kawasaki gritted his teeth and said the bottom line in his heart.
Lin Feng shook his head again.
"Mr. Lin, please show your sincerity. Also, although my current situation is not good, I will not sell it if the price is too low." Kawasaki also knew that Lin Feng was taking the opportunity to lower the price. Although he was a little bit
It's a trap, but it won't let Lin Feng take advantage of it. He's not that stupid!
"Kawasaki, for US$250 million, I will buy all the shares of your 'Playmore'." Lin Feng reported his bottom line.
Kawasaki was delighted, the price had exceeded his estimate. Now 'aruze' company is saying in the industry that any company that dares to trade with Kawasaki is the enemy of 'aruze'. This directly leads to Kawasaki's inability to sell 'snk'
To sell it at a reasonable price, the famous Korean arcade manufacturer "eolith" is only willing to offer a price of US$180 million, but Lin Feng's current offer of US$250 million really satisfies him.
However, Lin Feng's next words made Kawasaki unhappy.
"But I want you to ensure that all your talents can work in my company. If one person is missing, I will deduct US$10 million. And I will only pay you an upfront payment of US$100 million. In the next three years, if your employees do not leave, I will deduct US$10 million."
I will pay you 50 million U.S. dollars every year. Of course, I will let you stay after three years." Lin Feng said with a smile.
In addition to its game copyrights, the most important asset of "snk" is this group of talents. What the "Second World" lacks most now is game talents. With the addition of this group of outstanding talents, the "Second World" will be able to grow even more vigorously.
.When Kawasaki had nothing to do before, it would first transfer fixed assets, then let its employees resign one after another, and then transfer to his company. Lin Feng would not be so stupid as not to guard against this move.
Kawasaki was stunned! Originally, he was planning to take the money and go to Europe to develop. The Japanese underworld is the weakest in Europe. He only needs to hire a few bodyguards to protect his own safety. When the funds are available and the original employees are recalled, he will
But now he can make a comeback. But now Lin Feng's move has blocked all the escape routes he planned. Of course, he can still take 100 million US dollars and let the employees return to his company.
But in that case, he can only get 100 million US dollars in compensation, which is too small and not as high as the price offered by South Korea's "eolith". However, if sold to "eolith", its employees are likely to join "eolith" one after another instead of following
He went to Europe to start over. After all, whether he can make a comeback is still unknown, but "eolith" is a mature game manufacturer, and I believe the salary is not low.
Tangled! Absolutely tangled.
"Mr. Kawasaki, why don't you think about it carefully first, and then tell me your decision after you have thought it through." Lin Feng said with a smile without urging.
Kawasaki nodded helplessly, he really needed to think about this carefully.
After seeing off Kawasaki, Lin Feng and Wu Zhaopu smiled knowingly.
"Boss, you have changed a lot this time. You used to be like a sharp sword, no, it should be said to be a double-edged sword, hurting both the enemy and yourself. You have changed a lot this time and are more calm.
And his thoughts are more thorough." Wu Zhaopu sighed. The trick just now made Kawasaki smile bitterly, which is enough to witness Lin Feng's growth. In the past, Lin Feng would have forcefully forced Kawasaki to compromise, although the same effect was still achieved.
But it will undoubtedly arouse the resentment of Kawasaki. Now, Kawasaki has been given a choice. Although Kawasaki will have no choice but to compromise in the end, it will not have any resentment towards Lin Feng. This is just a business trick, and Lin Feng did not add insult to injury. On the contrary,
, offering a price of $250 million.
The US$250 million shows Lin Feng's position. If Kawasaki insists on plotting against Lin Feng, then Lin Feng's revenge will leave people speechless. They can only say that Kawasaki is asking for trouble.
After listening to Wu Zhaopu's words, Lin Feng also sighed a lot. Before his rebirth, he was just an ordinary person. Although he lived to 30, he never experienced any big storms. After his rebirth, he used the "prophet" to develop step by step. Although he occasionally
There were twists and turns, but overall it was extremely smooth. After all, if you have a "prophet" and still can't succeed, it's really like a dung scoop.
Under such circumstances, I will naturally become arrogant, frivolous, and pushy. Although Wu Zhaopu, Li Zekai, and others often remind me, these friends are concerned about their own self-esteem and each other's stance, and they only give superficial suggestions.
This little bit of advice was not enough for Lin Feng, who had always been high-spirited, at least not enough to wake him up.
During this trip to Chu City, Deputy Bureau Ouyang and Mayor Yu spoke with sincerity, clearly and thoroughly analyzing the shortcomings of Lin Feng's character, and gave Lin Feng a "thick lesson", which was like a wake-up call for Lin Feng.
Wake up with a start.
It was helpless for the two of them to talk so earnestly. After all, for Deputy Ouyang and Mayor Yu, Lin Feng must become more sophisticated and profound, otherwise Lin Feng will be unlucky one day, and as this community of interests, everyone will suffer.
The two of them weren't much better.
If the month is profitable, then it is losing! - Lin Feng is very grateful to Deputy Bureau Ouyang and Mayor Yu for their advice.
"Mr. Wu, during this period, some of my personal behaviors have affected the company. I'm really sorry for this. But don't worry, it won't happen again in the future. But one thing is, boycott Japanese goods and don't forget the national humiliation. I have never said this."
I regret it." Lin Feng bowed to Wu Zhaopu cautiously.
Lin Feng apologized so carefully, Wu Zhaopu was slightly surprised, and then smiled knowingly. As a chairman, he has finally matured. At the age of 22, it is not too late to wake up! As for "Boycott Japanese goods and never forget the national humiliation", Wu Zhaopu did not
I don’t think it’s inappropriate. Although I lost the Japanese market, I won the Chinese market and the markets of most Asian countries that had been invaded by Japan. Instead of losing money, I made a profit.
"Goal - the best game company in the world!" The two of them clasped their hands together.
Back at the villa, several girls have started to resume work, and Liu Yifei brought back good news. During the Chinese New Year, she was unexpectedly spotted in "The Golden Family" and served as the second female lead, Bai Xiuzhu. She was the first among the girls to step into the second role.
One step person.
Li Zhiyou and others held a celebration dinner for Liu Yifei that night. In three months, Liu Yifei will enter "The Golden Family" and work hard to become an excellent actor.
Chapter completed!
