Chapter 643 Acquisition of the Team

After solving his own problems and making a small profit, and lighting a fire by the way, Yang Dongxu flew to South Korea by plane. It was not because Li Fuzhen asked him for anything, nor did the investment BS have something to do. He turned to investigate the Korean game market. Not only South Korea, but he would also go to Japan.

Compared with the domestic people with lofty ideals who are actively expanding, China is still in a game desert environment. The game industry in Japan and South Korea has developed well.

After all, the environment and starting point are different. When China was still riding horses to fight in ancient times, people were already driving cars on the highways they built. It was impossible to surpass them step by step, and they could only overtake them in a corner.

This time he went abroad for inspection, he had two main goals, the first one was "Legend of Mir 2". This game was not very popular after its release in South Korea, but it was a mess in China.

The second one was "Stone Age". These two games can be said to be the iconic online game representatives of the pioneering era of the domestic game industry. If these two games are obtained, Dongxu Technology's game department will basically have nothing to worry about within five years.

That's right. When dividing the business departments between Huaxia Telecom and Dongxu Technology, Yang Dongxu assigned the game department to Dongxu Technology. For Lei Jiaozhu, Yang Dongxu thought it would be better for him to concentrate on making mobile phones and forget about games.

Of course, in addition to inspecting games, the team that makes games is also the focus of his personal visit this time. It is not enough to have games without a team. He doesn't want to buy the games back and only form a maintenance team without development capabilities.

After all, buying games, or taking some game agents, is because there is no way to do it. But it can't be done all the time. The game department has been established, and even the office has been decorated. How can there be no professional talents?

With the experience of investing in Korean TV stations last time, plus BS is now the number one entertainment company in Korea. Even though Li Fuzhen is still busy in China and has not returned to Korea this time, Yang Dongxu's trip was also very smooth.

As soon as the plane landed on the first day, he directly inspected several game companies, and then went to see the "Legend" team that was still under development. Then he did not express his opinion on the spot, stayed in Korea for three days and flew to Japan.

Compared with South Korea and Japan, it is easier, after all, he is a major shareholder of SoftBank, and SoftBank's main investment is in telecommunications and IT industries. So without much effort, he bought several promising game studios in a package.

Because the game development has reached a critical moment, Yang Dongxu did not intend to let the team move to China, but let them continue to develop, and discussed his views on the game with the leader of the game development team.

At first, the captain of the game team looked down on this stranger, but after a few words of communication, he was instantly shocked. It is impossible not to be shocked, because as a game veteran, Yang Dongxu spent most of his time in Internet cafes in his previous life.

He has played "Legend" and he is even a hardcore player of "Stone Age", so the ideas and requirements he put forward are all classics of various versions after the game development matures, the crystallization of countless people's efforts, and have been tested by time.

After watching the game, Yang Dongxu went to visit Shueisha. As a shareholder, it was his first time to visit Shueisha and he was warmly received. He has been creating comics since the 1980s. Now he can be said to be a master in the comics industry and is steadily moving towards becoming a master. All his comics are classics, even though he rarely writes them himself.

In addition to exchanging some comic experiences and holding a shareholder meeting, Yang Dongxu also has another goal, which is animation.

This is a huge industry. At present, Japan has found the right track and developed rapidly, and has implicitly surpassed Europe and the United States, where technology is more advanced.

As the largest exporter of comics in the future, Yang Dongxu has never given up on this piece of cake and has started to lay out a long time ago. And there is the idea of ​​introducing comic technology into China.

Think about the popular Japanese "Slam Dunk", "Bleach", and "One Piece". Then look at the domestic ones. There is nothing much to say. He is in pain for a while, and he feels like he is spending hundreds of millions to make blockbusters, while we spend hundreds of millions to make "The Promise".

Especially after the development of the Internet, there were all kinds of online dramas. Sometimes he wanted to ask the director and screenwriter to fire him. Such an awesome IP, such a passionate storyline, you should give me a Doudi riding a horse.

In short, Yang Dongxu has thought about it. When the special effects of the movie can't keep up, he will first shoot the good materials into animation. As long as the screenwriter is more reliable, the picture production is more attentive, and there is animation technology support. Many popular online novels are definitely more awesome than the popular Japanese comics.

So since comics can become the killer of Japanese elements invading other countries, why can't they become the driving force for Chinese elements to become popular in the world?

When children all over the world are fascinated by Japanese ninjas, Chinese cultivators and even immortals are even more awesome, okay? "Journey to the West" is also very powerful when it is made into an animation. As for the translation problem?

Do you know the original version? Do you know what the original version is? Since Chinese people can call themselves Oppa and Oni when watching Korean dramas, they can call themselves Yamedie when watching Japanese dramas. What's wrong with letting these foreigners appreciate the charm of Chinese?

For an accurate translation of Mao, it is enough to give a rough outline. If you want to understand the meaning of the words in the play, then everyone should work hard to learn Chinese. This is also a powerful promotion of the Chinese language, isn't it?

In the Ginza Hotel, Yang Dongxu, who had been in Japan for almost a week, met Son Masayoshi, currently the representative of SoftBank, for the first time. Like other industries in Japan.

Due to the impact of the financial turmoil, SoftBank, which has been making rapid progress, has been somewhat weakened this year. Many telecommunications companies that could have developed went bankrupt. This makes Son Zhengyi always feel a little lack of confidence when meeting his big boss.

"No investment is 100% profitable. If there is such a business, it will have been occupied by others. Then it will be our turn? Before the end of the year, I will inject another 1 billion US dollars into house arrest. Don't be afraid of failure, and don't be afraid of spending money. , if you think it’s good, cast it boldly.” Yang Dongxu waved his arms very grandly.

Anyway, the money invested is less than one-fifth of the money earned from the Japanese stock market, so he naturally speaks with confidence and is twice as strong as his waist.

"Thank you boss for your trust." Sun Zhengyi said with some excitement. He would die for his confidant. He is so lucky to meet a boss who understands him so well. But after getting excited, he thought about the technologies required by the big boss, and he couldn't help but look a little tangled: "Chairman, those technologies related to telecommunications."

"I know about the technology blockade, and I don't intend to do anything secretly. If the patent is not authorized, can we cooperate with the head office? I think everyone knows how big a market China is.

At this time, needless to say, the benefits of patent investment and cooperation? If that doesn't work, you can trade technology for rare earths. I still have some ideas in this regard. "

"Is it really possible to exchange for rare earths?" Son's eyes lit up.

As an investor who is very optimistic about the development of the telecommunications industry, I understand the importance of rare earths very well. I just don’t know why China’s rare earth exports have been in turmoil recently. Several major countries in the world have ordered back their rare earth products for testing. This has made many electronic component companies feel nervous.

"It's necessary. As long as it has the technology I need, it doesn't matter whether it's a joint venture that requires shares, or it counts as rare earths. But the premise is don't try to trick me. They want to make money, and I also want to make money, and it will be mutually beneficial for everyone. Otherwise, I will go to Europe and the United States to find partners. Anyway, facing the huge market of China, anyone with a little foresight will be tempted.”

Rare earth exchange for technology is an idea proposed by Yang Dongxu when he was cooperating with the authorities to rectify domestic rare earth exports. Don’t you want the Republic’s rare earths, and the demand is huge.

I don’t want your money in that business, I’ll give you your skills in exchange. Or if the two parties cooperate and invest in your technology, I will provide policy support to open up the domestic market and let you come in and make money. In this way, you will definitely be able to double your losses after the price increase of rare earths.

Of course, if you feel that high-tech technology or sensitive technology is not enough, then you can bring out some real-life technology, as long as you can help me develop while making money, the more the better.

At first glance, China is at a disadvantage, but the score cannot be settled. Even if you don’t exchange rare earths for technology, you won’t welcome international capital to invest in China and won’t let people make money?

Since we originally encouraged people to invest and make money. Then why not take a roundabout way to get more benefits in your own hands and add more support to the development of the country?

In short, if you develop, your words will count. If you fail to develop, you will only be treated as a grandson. Otherwise, why would the country develop its economy even though it tolerates everything?

So until we are not tough, there is nothing funny about nodding and bowing when we should. Of course, the premise is that some bottom lines cannot be crossed, otherwise no matter who you are, even if you can't do it, I still have to let you know what it means that Lord Ma has three eyes.

Yang Dongxu, who came back from Japan with a huge amount of money in hand, started to hold meetings with various companies. After conducting detailed research on the industries he had acquired in the past two years, he was ready to start crazy expansion.

Especially in the retail industry of Millennium Supermarket, he spent a lot of money so that Hu Dashan must spread the supermarket to second-tier cities in China before the first half of next year, and there should be at least two in each second-tier city and at least one in third-tier cities.

For Dongxu Technology, the sale of VCD patents and production lines is not a smoke bomb, so it continues to sell. Then they invested heavily to build a computer hardware production line with independent property rights, which mainly focused on hardware and computer motherboards, and tried to keep up with graphics cards and memory sticks. In short, sufficient R&D funds were provided.

Not to mention Huaxiu, which has basically taken over domestic textile factories and launched an outsourcing policy for some orders. Take the initiative to help some small textile companies transform, improve the development of the domestic textile industry faster and better, and then expand their share in the international market.

At the end of November, although the Asian financial crisis continued to be turbulent, it eased slightly. Taking advantage of the fact that international capital seemed to be brewing a big move, Yang Dongxu took the time to fly to the United States. He is planning to acquire a basketball club, and if he can fly to Europe to acquire a football club.
