Global monopoly of technology

The quiet atmosphere in the conference room didn't last long, and Luo Sheng's voice came into everyone's ears again.

"I don’t care whether it’s Microsoft’s anti-ACC alliance or not. Now that Wall Street’s multi-party capital has actively matched it, let’s go ahead and make each other’s steps. The major host platforms will open up the content ecological interoperability and do not play the exclusive set. ."

Speaking of this, Luo Sheng added: "But for Microsoft's "Halo" and other series, Sony's "Final Fantasy" and other series of masterpieces, 40% of the rake on my platform is paid to us, and our games are in the other's On the platform, about 20% is paid to the other party."

"This……"

The executives at the meeting looked at each other. At this time, one of them looked at Luo Sheng and said: “Mr. Luo, I don’t think it is necessary. The content of the ACC platform can be supported even by a few third parties controlled by Bluestar Technology Group. To build a huge closed-loop ecosystem, these third parties are not lacking in best-selling masterpieces, and we have already lost 37.5 billion yuan (RMB) in it, and we are almost able to turn our competitors into tools at the last breath."

The rest of the managers at the meeting nodded in agreement. They really couldn't figure out why Luo Sheng chose to be merciful at such a critical moment, leaving his competitors a breathing space.

As for the matter of being sued by Microsoft in court, although the company's senior executives took it seriously, they did not feel that they were facing a major enemy. This lawsuit was not an accident, it was endless talk.

This is what Microsoft can do for the face of a multinational technology giant. After all, big companies also have their own arrogance and face. In terms of qualifications, the Cote d'Azur is a younger brother in front of established companies such as Microsoft and Sony.

As the saying goes, there is a raging soldier, and the raging is a nest, and the upper and the lower are effective. The big boss Luo Sheng has been in charge of the Côte d'Azur. So far, the company's executives can act in a style of being just right, and they can't just think of a way to see if they can just wave.

After working hard with Luo Sheng for so many years, his confidence and self-confidence have also been played out. Facing foreign veteran giant groups, they no longer have the inferiority mentality they used to.

It's all done.

"The timing is wrong, fate shouldn't be dead, just do as I said, that's it." Luo Sheng said, when the final decision was made.

The timing is wrong?

Everyone looked at each other.

Although the big boss didn't explain the reason, they all said it to this point, and everyone had no objections.

Luo Sheng actually didn't want to miss this opportunity to turn his opponent into a tool man, and after gaining a foothold in the game industry, he can deal with Intel with all his strength.

This is a plan made very early.

However, the plan always fails to keep up with the changes. This juncture coincides with the arrival of the North American election, and Wall Street has calculated it back. How crazy the stock of Bluestar Technology is now, it will fall in the near future. How miserable.

In this round of next-generation host wars, the Cote d'Azur has already lost 37.5 billion yuan. Such a huge sum of money has not been exchanged for the expected return, which is a bit painful.

Nobody's money comes from the wind.

But compared to the two evils, Luo Sheng certainly chose the lesser.

Company executives such as Yao Jianhong did not know that at this moment, the brother company Bluestar Technology Group was in an extremely bright moment, but undercurrents were already surging behind it.

Luo Sheng didn't want to suffer the enemy back and forth, and it would be hard for him to take care of it.

Although he has secretly explored the transactions made by Wall Street, he can not absolutely guarantee that the North American authorities will turn their faces with Wall Street, and thus make the fake show.

If there is no guarantee, you have to deal with the worst. This is a consideration as a decision maker.

When the time comes, the Côte d’Azur and Bluestar Technology will catch fire, and it will be exhausting if the fire is extinguished. If the overseas market is lost, the revenue of both companies may be cut in half.

Let's put Microsoft on the same level. If the battle line is too long, it is easy to increase variables.

Luo Sheng did not tell Yao Jianhong and others about these things, and even Zhang Bowen of Bluestar Technology did not tell him, nor did he intend to tell them.

...

As time went on, entering mid-April, under the combination of Wall Street's multi-party capital, the Côte d'Azur and Microsoft reached an out-of-court settlement.

After all, both companies have the interests of Wall Street. Wall Street has now borrowed 70 billion US dollars of corporate debt to the Côte d’Azur. This is an astronomical figure. This vicious struggle between the two parties is in Wall Street’s terms. Not only is there no benefit, but it does more harm than good.

As a result, Microsoft suddenly announced the withdrawal of the lawsuit against the French Riviera.

This kind of magical turning point has left countless media organizations and netizens waiting to see the big show bewildered. This reversal is too fast. It is so fast that except for the two parties involved, the subsequent plot trend has caught everyone off guard.

The stocks of major third-party gaming companies around the world fluctuate like an electrocardiogram.

After the talks between the two parties, the market value of the third-party game company fell sharply. The industry believed that the subsidy dividend was over. A few days later, Microsoft turned around and filed a lawsuit against Côte d’Azur. The market value of the third-party game company rose sharply. , The industry believes that the subsidy dividend can continue for a while.

As a result, within a few days, Microsoft suddenly announced its withdrawal. The stock market immediately responded, and the market value of the third-party game company plummeted again.

Countless stocks investors have almost jumped off the building.

...

On the morning of April 19, the headquarters of the Star River City of Blue Coast Company, the media conference hall.

When a reporter at the scene snapped a photo of the signing parties on the red carpet stage, he couldn't help but whispered: "The last moment I have to face the case in court, the next moment... the development of the plot is really magical."

At this moment, Luo Sheng rarely appeared before the media camera, and he personally came forward to launch a public signing ceremony with Microsoft's console alliance team.

Don Mattrick and others stood on the red carpet stage together with Luo Sheng, holding each other's expanded contract documents facing the camera. Although they don’t know their mental activities and real thoughts, at least they all smile under the camera. Right.

It seems that there is a very good happyend.

After finishing the group photo, it was Luo Sheng's turn to speak. He stood on a dedicated speech platform and said vividly: "This next-generation console battle has been launched since years ago. We have won over third parties such as Ubisoft, and the Microsoft Alliance has won over Ke Lemei and other third parties, we are all fighting for more third parties, we are fighting."

The reporters from more than 200 media organizations in the audience couldn't help laughing.

Luo Sheng continued to speak lightly with a smile on his face: "The two sides are working hard like martial arts masters. This strength... means that everyone loses 20 to 30 million U.S. dollars a day, and I will lose another 40 million U.S. dollars. I also resisted, if I remember correctly, one day the highest loss exceeded 58 million US dollars."

The domestic and foreign media special reporters off the scene heard what Luo Sheng said calmly, but they all secretly smacked their lips when they heard the numbers said by the other party, feeling dizzy.

The highest loss in a day was US$58 million, which was nearly RMB 400 million excluding exchange rate changes.

Burning 400 million yuan a day, the competition between these multinational giants is almost the same as the rhythm of fairy fights.

And Luo Sheng's speech seems to be indistinguishable from 4,000 yuan, so that it is a big boss in the end.

Apart from worship, one can only worship.

On the speaking stage, Luo Sheng still smiled and said, "...but neither of the two dared to stop, because once you receive it, you will give up your previous work, and you will even die due to internal injuries."

The audience suddenly burst into laughter.

Luo Sheng went on to say: “So I’ve been dying, and finally Microsoft’s President Ballmer talked to me on the phone. I said, how do you think this will end? But you can’t fight it. They seem to be unconvinced, so they must have Fight a shot. In the end, it was settled with the cooperation of multiple capitals."

There was a lot of laughter off the court. Don Mattrick and the others sitting on the side could only laugh with a strong face. Anyway, he didn't want to stay any longer, so he quickly withdrew after the signing ceremony.

But now I can only endure silently, endure watching the other side show off as a winner.
