421. Dragon's Conspiracy
When returning to Zhanlong, Su Budong's first thing was to hold a high-level plenary meeting.
In Japan, the most popular profession for young people in Japan is game designers. There are more than a dozen computer game schools. Many famous college students have also joined the software industry. This is unimaginable in the past few years. Hardware and software have become the two pillars that support the Japanese economy. However, many people have also begun to notice that software is an important reason for whether hardware is selling well or not. Especially after Zhanlong acquired a large number of stocks of Microsoft, IBM, Apple, Oracle, and Sony, it also marked that the competition has entered the era of software war!
In terms of software, Nintendo has more funds and strength than Zhanlong. Its current number of game consoles sold to more than 50 million units!
Since the Nintendo console FC was released in 1983, it has set an unprecedented record of 3 trillion yen for a single commodity in just a few years! The total stock value of Nintendo is on par with large heavy industry companies such as Mitsubishi Heavy Industry.
The industry calls it: Nintendo Empire.
Nintendo adopts the theory of strong people that only prioritizes its own company's interests, tightens software vendors with various rules, controls their marketing, and uses mass media to control their voice. Its purpose is to continue to maintain a Nintendo company that allocates 3 trillion yen market cake and dominates the game market!
Nintendo's principle of "one strong is weak" with the basic policy of suppressing the game market, which is also the basic business strategy it set in the era of professional playing card manufacturers in the past. Although Nintendo has achieved great success using this method, can such a business theory evolved based on playing cards be widely implemented in the world, become a business rule, and be recognized by Volkswagen? After all, even when Toyota implemented the "T-50 Operation" plan that occupied 50% of the automobile market, it was immediately strongly attacked by the automobile industry and automobile magazines, and was forced to share the big cake of the automobile market with other companies.
Now, under Su Budong's trading, Zhanlong has overtaken on the curve and can already look at Nintendo at the right time. But you always have to wait for the opportunity to show your fangs. Before showing your fangs, you still have time to adjust the direction of Zhanlong. Now that Nintendo has not yet reacted, it is urgent to quickly expand its strength. It is imperative to run a game school.
Chu Xingyun reported that the school's qualifications are not going well. Su Budong thought for a while and said, "Don't care about qualifications or something, recruit people first, and pay salaries in the name of apprentices."
"Ah? Is this OK?" Chu Xingyun said.
"Learn while working, time is not waiting." Su Budong knew very well that cultivating an excellent producer requires time to feed them, and they must hurry up.
Chu Xingyun showed Su Budong the previous plan to recruit students. Su Budong made some changes to some details and asked him to make it public through media and social channels as soon as possible and began to recruit students.
Then there is the game making.
"Drunk Fist 2" has been tested, so I'm waiting to choose a day to release.
"Soul of War" has been completed and is expected to be released in late November. What to do later games require Su Budong to make a decision.
Su Budong said that what kind of game to make is a separate topic after the meeting, and the subsequent issue is the development direction of the entire War Dragon.
"Lao Wang, the research and development of Red Star System 2.0 is about to begin. We need to produce one generation, develop one generation, and reserve one generation."
"But what is the development direction?" Wang Jiang was a little depressed. He did not expect that the Red Star system was well received as soon as it was released. Compared with the price of $100 for the Win system, the Red Star system is affordable and the software diversity, many software companies have begun to develop adaptive software for it.
Now in IBM's statistics, the installed capacity of the Red Star system has accounted for 40% of the market share, and it is divided into three parts of the world with the Win and Mac systems.
This result was something Wang Jiang did not imagine when he developed the Red Star System.
It is precisely based on this that the Red Star System has become an important source of Zhanlong's income. So there is no reason not to continue to build this brand.
"I think the development direction is just a few: for home users, this is an incremental, so we need to launch some features that they like, such as adding some games in it; and the improvement of the user interface is best to enable people who have never used a computer to get started quickly; it can simulate a 32-bit operating system to enhance the image display effect; increase virtual device driver support, increase system scalability; and facilitate hardware manufacturers to develop drivers..." Subudong has listed several items in a row, each of which requires a lot of effort.
Fortunately, this is like building a house. The earliest foundation has been built, so you can only build a house on the built foundation.
"Also," Subudong continued: "The Red Star system plus the game we made ourselves, this strategy has remained unchanged, putting Tetris and Tank Wars inside."
Then Su Budong announced a good news to everyone: "Don't think I did nothing in Xiangjiang."
Zhang Yang said with a chance: "Yes, you didn't do anything, you're picking up girls and making movies."
Wang Jiang was still a little more mature, "Let Bu Dong finish his words."
"We Zhanlong made about 20 billion in Xiangjiang this time."
"How many?" Everyone thought that their ears had hallucinations. Their cognitive limit was about a few hundred million. The money earned by the subsidiary doubled in one go? Did Su Budong open a mint?
"20 billion, US dollars." Su Budong felt that his words were not rigorous, so he added another sentence.
“…”
Everyone was shocked by the news.
As a little transparent among the Zhanlong high-level officials, Chu Xingyun drank tea silently. Is this the world of the boss? It's so terrifying.
"Did you snatch the Mid-Federal?" Zhang Yang jumped up and said with a blushing face. "It's worth four months in prison."
Su Budong gave Zhang Yang a blank look: "You may not earn so much even if you sit for another 20 years!"
"Bu Dong, why haven't you mentioned this to us before?" Wang Jiang said.
"I can't believe it. I was not sure about this when I was doing it, so I kept it from everyone." Su Budong said. In fact, the more important reason was to keep it confidential. Zhan Long wanted to sign a contract with IBM at that time, and he couldn't prepare for this matter. If I told IBM to listen to this, how could he still copy their stocks?
"You are really..." Wang Jiang didn't know what adjective to use.
"So you want to hold a celebration party? The company's annual meeting is OK." Zhang Yang's frequency is not at the same level as everyone else.
Su Budong ignored him and continued, "Although I made $20 billion, most of it was used to buy stocks."
"Ah?" Everyone's mood suddenly fell from the clouds to the bottom.
"What stocks cost $20 billion?"
Subodong thought about it, cleared his throat and said, "We are now shareholders of Microsoft, IBM, Apple, Oracle, Sony, Sega, Nintendo, Nike, Shueisha, and Marvel; they are the actual controllers of Tsunya Co., Ltd. - we can openly release Ultraman cards; in addition, we have also acquired an animation production company in Japan and an animation production company in the United States..."
Everyone was shocked by Su Budong's name as if they were reporting the dishes.
"I'm provoking (fuck)" Zhang Yang couldn't help but swear. "You not only snatched the Federal Reserve, but also Wall Street?"
"It can be said that." Su Budong felt that Zhang Yang's words were rough and not rough.
Wang Jiang calmed down his slightly excited mood: "Bu Dong, I don't know about stocks, what are the benefits of becoming their shareholders?"
"Simply put, it is to pave the way for our own development." There are many rights of shareholders. In addition to dividends, Su Budong actually cares more about shareholders' right to know and voting rights.
Although the number of votes is not as high as yourself, and the number of votes is not as low as yourself, when these companies encounter situations against Zhanlong, they can know.
Everyone was shocked by Su Budong's courage.
"From the beginning, my goal was to overtake. This world was never something that could be controlled by any company or one capital." Su Budong said with a wave of his hand.
"But we still feel like listening to mythological stories when we know this news." Zhang Yang shrugged, "But if things happen to you, there is nothing impossible."
