Global monopoly of technology

Hearing this, Gabe Newell was unmoved. He felt that the other party was just bluffing. Luo Sheng saw his head iron and showed off directly: "If I go back and build an online game store platform by myself, it’s almost the same model as Steam. My BlueStar Technology’s BlueSpace social networking site alone has a global user base of over 300 million. What does this mean?”

When Gabe Newell heard this sentence, Luo Sheng went on to say: "It means I can easily get the product to a large number of users. Of course, I know that whether the end user accepts it depends on the content. It’s not a problem to keep these users by talking, because just now Take-Two is almost in my pocket. Believe me, I will continue to acquire more third-party game developers for these developments. Shangdu will release games on my platform. I said that once the strangulation begins, I will go all out."

"My Bluestar Technology's financial advantage has completely exploded your Valve, maybe I should dig all the few third parties on Steam at present, and even let the profit subsidy be at all costs. To me, it is just tens of millions of dollars. A loss of one or two billion US dollars. Therefore, I have an online traffic entrance that you can’t reach, a financial advantage that you can’t reach, and a platform content enrichment that you can’t reach. Not only is the quality better than you, but also the quantity. You are too much."

Speaking of this, Luo Sheng looked directly at each other: "I can even bear five consecutive years of losses to compete with you, but Steam may not be able to survive a year, then Mr. Newell, the current Valve company, the current Steam What is the platform using to break my offensive as above? Or do you really have 100% confidence that Steam can survive this strangulation?"

Gabe Newell said blankly: "You are going to do this, and I will sue you for monopoly on market dominance."

Luo Sheng laughed and said: "Then I will give you a little promotion resource on my platform, but with your current financial resources, how much promotion fee can you give me? But no matter how much, I am yours. Several times more, the ability to fight money will ultimately be required."

Fat G was silent. Under this silence, his heart felt cold. He couldn't sell the money to promote it on the other party's platform. Such a cruel reality was very hopeless.

He tried to refute what Luo Sheng said, but found that he could not refute a single sentence.

Fighting users, the advantages of many Internet products under Luo Sheng are enough to make Steam restless; fighting for third parties, Valve's current situation, to put it bluntly, currently can only pull two or three cats and dogs for Steam, and those big brands He couldn't get a third party at all. On the other hand, Luo Sheng, the big-name game publishers and developers like Take-Two have basically been bought by him; he can't fight for capital.

Seeing Fatty G hesitated and his expression changed inadvertently, Luo Sheng knew that he had at least bluffed him, and immediately said, "And conversely, these advantages will be used by Steam, and indirectly prevent a powerful The birth of a competitor. Do you know what my biggest expectations are for Steam?"

Upon hearing the last question, Gabe Newell couldn't help but look at Luo Sheng. The latter suddenly said: "I hope Steam users can be found all over the world, and even Antarctica has its players!"

This is too shocking, especially after hearing the phrase "Antarctica has its players", G Fat's heart jumped, even at 42 years old, his heart couldn't help but feel a fire for it.

But he quickly recovered, calmed down quickly, and said, "So what? At that time, neither Valve nor Steam was mine, it was already yours."

Luo Sheng immediately shook his head and corrected: "It's wrong, it's not yours, nor mine, but ours. If I can acquire Valve, this company will still operate as usual after the completion of the acquisition. I even have a director. No one will be sent here. At most, you will entrust a third-party auditor to check the financial situation. You are still the actual head of this company."

Obviously, Luo Sheng does not intend to personally intervene in the operation of the subsidiary company in this field, at least not in the short term. He just wants to put an ID in the game industry to foreshadow the layout of the future, and this A strategic vision is still very long-term for now.

After Luo Sheng's continuous coaxing and temptation and threatening, it is impossible to say that Gabe Newell has no heart, and his firm heart is shaken just like Leon Blunt...

At the end, Gabe Newell said: "Sorry, Mr. Luo, I'm afraid I can't answer you right away, I need to think about it."

Luo Sheng nodded happily: "It is right to consider carefully, and it should be so."

Two days later, news came from Take-Two again. Leon Blunt successfully persuaded the board of directors. That day, Luo Sheng flew to New York again to complete the signing of the M&A contract.

Bluestar Technology officially acquired 55% of the troubled Take-Two company at a high price of US$475 million. Luo Sheng actually liked the game developer "R Star", but included its parent company. After that, "R Star" became the indirect holding company of Bluestar Technology.

Affected by this, the share price of Take-Two has stopped falling and continued to strengthen a few days ago. On the day Luo Sheng acquired the company, its total market value had risen from the initial US$1.276 billion to US$1.8 billion and maintained It didn't fall.

This result is affected in many ways. For example, Bluestar Technology did not actually interfere with the operation of this company. The industry originally thought that Bluestar Technology was the second place for Vivendi. After the acquisition of this company, it will definitely be reorganized. Unexpectedly, Luo Sheng dumped $475 million and basically finished it.

With the entry of Bluestar Technology, the market generally believes that Take-Two’s current troubles will eventually be solved. Although the latest work under the "R Star" has encountered troubles, it cannot be denied that "GTA3" is commercially available. Success, the market was generally anxious about being affected by the negative crisis, and this work would die.

Now there is Bluestar Technology’s endorsement, and Bluestar Technology has a lot of powerful Wall Street capital behind it. The situation is completely different.

The world is simple and complicated.

However, the reactions of several major VCs of Bluestar Technology are completely opposite.

Luo Sheng unexpectedly entered the game industry in a big way without a word. The deal cost nearly 500 million U.S. dollars. Not long after the news broke, the call hit Luo Sheng's ears.

Obviously, investors are strongly opposed to him doing this.

Luo Sheng's approach is simply crazy to increase risk leverage for Bluestar Technology.

It can be opposed, but it cannot be prevented.

However, the investors didn't make any drastic actions, so they called Luo Sheng and expressed their opposition clearly, but only verbally.

Now he is tossing casually, VC is waiting for the disclosure of Bluestar Technology's first quarter audit financial report. Now it has entered a three-month period, and there is only one month left.

...

This acquisition is also not calm for the game industry. Take-Two is also one of the industry’s well-known top big-name game developers. Nowadays, the industry is characterized by more and more large media giant groups and large Internet companies. Entering the industry with a lot of banknotes.

In terms of Internet technology companies, there used to be giant giants like Microsoft, and now there is another rising star, Bluestar Technology, in the Internet technology industry.

For practitioners in the game industry, they are very worried that Bluestar Technology will become the next notorious Vivendi in the industry, but so far they have not seen this trend, which undoubtedly relieved the game industry.

People in the industry undoubtedly hope that Bluestar Technology will treat the game industry with the same attitude as Microsoft, instead of coming to this field to harvest a wave of dollars and leave, and finally leave a feather.

Immediately after Take-Two was acquired, the next day, news came from Seattle. Luo Sheng signed the contract with his front foot, and G Fat personally made a call. It was a private call left by Luo Sheng. .

agreed!

Facts have proved that G fat can't escape the true fragrance law.

...

……Dividing line……

PS:

Zhaoling discovered that there were some, basically new accounts, with no consumption records at the starting point, new accounts with blank main business.

What do these people like to say the most?

For example: You cannot succeed in this thing, and it is impossible for the United States to make you bigger, and you won't tell you so much if you die.

The most typical is that the protagonist’s social network, data, and original words can’t be remembered, but the general idea is to throw out such a conclusion, and then use the conclusion to "prove" that the author is stupid and naive and lives in a dream series.

Zhaoling thinks, these people or similar comments are not letting go. They do not sincerely point out the shortcomings of the book, but use sinister heart to discourage the author and bring rhythm, because according to their "conclusion" and in line with them This book is impossible to write down. If you take and value his remarks, it will cause you to directly or indirectly accept psychological shocks and hint you to give up, or disrupt your state, rhythm and writing mindset.

Because according to their remarks, the basic setting of this book has been completely negated, how do you write it?

It is not a delusion of Zhaoling's persecution, because there has always been, and many similar funny comments have been deleted.

Zhaoling hopes that he has been persecuted with delusions, but I also explain one point here. It is useless. No matter how you fight, even if you get angry at the time, Zhaoling will always follow the outline set by him.

It’s just a bit confusing. Zhaoling is also a web literary industry with a history of three to five years. This will not affect our writing. How to write an outline is set, but what is difficult to understand is that we are just a small street, at most. What do you always do to beat people?

Here is also an example to respond to the boring comments of those people.

Japanese semiconductors also accounted for 50% of the global market share at the most glorious time in the last world, more than half, when Intel was still a younger brother, and the representative Sony Group was so indispensable in that era. In the end, Japanese semiconductors were taken by the Americans. After hitting it, it is only a few percent now that we have the era of Intel.

There is a very core point here, that is, in reality, there are some non-US companies that can surpass Americans in a certain cutting-edge field and get more than half of the market share. This is a fact. You can't deny it, right?

Here is just an example of Japanese semiconductors, there are actually many more.

So why can't the protagonist get up?The double standard is so slippery?It's all played in the web...

It's a novel.

Because of the protagonist's halo, rebirth gold finger, plus the protagonist's own operations, etc., the protagonist's career is sure, and the Americans will definitely fight.

But the ending will definitely not be the same as in Japan, because this is a novel, the old beauty is a villain, and the villain is done by the protagonist. Because this is a novel, this is not a novel by the abuser, so what I wrote is the protagonist. Fight against the villain’s web post.

Those who post those comments, and keep posting, do you want Zhaoling to write about the protagonist's abuse of the protagonist who was blocked by Americans in various ways?In the current environment at the starting point, if you write an online article about the abuse of the main culprit, you will die. What is it that you are not intentional and sinister?

If you like to read this kind of text, Zhaoling can take a private job. You can reward me with a golden or silver cute. You ask to set a theme. I personally make a book for you?What do you want to be, as long as I can do my best to write you?

So, always holding this point to lift the bar, Zhaoling's speculation is two kinds: one is that he didn't understand it, and the field of vision is limited; the other is that he knows this with sinister intentions, but he still says so, the purpose is to bring rhythm and shock Author, isn't it a bit inappropriate for a prostitute to engage in this?

Don't worry, Zhao Ling won't be influenced by these remarks. He just sees it coming out of you from time to time, like the aunt, and it's cyclical.

Please count the votes for comfort (╥╯^╰╥), today we will continue four changes, and it will be on the shelves immediately. Everyone will support us, thank you.
