Rebirth, I am the most powerful business tycoon

In fact, according to the original plan, his trip to the island country was mainly to close the net.

But when he was walking around Tokyo, he saw the prosperity of Tokyo’s video game and prototype industries, which made Jiang Feng change his mind.

His pan-entertainment empire includes TV stations, newspapers, entertainment companies, music companies, etc., leaving only two industries: comics and games.

It happens that in these two industries, island countries are currently doing best.

Thinking about the tens of billions of dollars worth of animation IP in future generations, Jiang Feng felt that it would be a waste not to harvest them at this time.

For example,”Pokémon” is known as the most IP-based animation in the world. The IP value alone is as high as 85 billion U.S. dollars, which has also driven up the stock price of its founding company, Nintendo.

In the eyes of some people,”Pokémon” is worthless, but in the eyes of some people, it is just a piece of cake.

《The reason why the IP value of”Pokémon” is so high is actually because the sales of its derivative peripherals are so good.

Such as comics, animations, movies and various game IP adaptations, and then there are prototypes, pillows, toys, etc.

For example, Pikachu in”Pokémon” has become one of the most famous cartoon characters in the world because of its cute appearance.

Take another example, Marvel!!

In fact, before Marvel adapted it into a movie, Marvel once reached the point of bankruptcy and relied on selling characters to make a living.

But after the success of the”Iron Man” movie, the comic company became the most valuable IP company in the United States, and Walt Disney even spent $4.24 billion to buy it.

You know, a year ago, before”Iron Man” was released, Marvel was so poor that it was about to go bankrupt, and its major shareholders were planning to sell the company and leave.

At this time, the movie”Iron Man” was released and grossed US$580 million at the global box office, shocking Hollywood and even the global film industry.

As the company behind the copyright of”Iron Man”, Marvel, a comic company with 5,000 characters, has attracted global attention for a while.

Movie giants such as Warner, Sony, Paramount, and Universal have joined in the battle. Marvel’s value has risen rapidly like a rocket. In the end, after a fierce competition, Walt Disney finally defeated all competitors, with 4.24 billion U.S. dollars. At a purchase price of , he won the Marvel Company.

A company on the verge of bankruptcy grew 40 times in just one year, becoming one of the largest acquisitions of the year.

After acquiring Marvel, Disney launched a bunch of special-effects Marvel movies, setting off a global craze for the Marvel Cinematic Universe.

Indirectly, Disney became the largest company in Hollywood.

Another example is the domestic”Ghost Blows Out the Lamp”》、《”Tomb Raiders Notes” are all well-run IPs, and the film and television copyrights alone are worth tens of billions.

I say so much, mainly because I want to say the importance of IP. If you play it well, it is a gold mine. If you play it poorly, it is worthless.

Jiang Feng positions New World Holdings Group as a comprehensive company integrating media and entertainment. It has both Murdoch’s news media empire and entertainment business.

The two complement each other.

The media provides a channel for entertainment to speak out, and entertainment collects money for the media.

A perfect match.

The most famous comic magazine in the island country is undoubtedly”Weekly Shonen Jump”》

《”Weekly Shonen Jump” magazine is one of the magazines published by Shueisha, and its IP is”Dragon Ball”》、《slam dunk》、《Saint Seiya》、《Chibi Maruko-chan” and so on.

In addition,”One Piece”, which will become a big hit in the mainland in the future,》、《Anime such as”Naruto” are also produced by this company.

Shueisha is also owned by the Japanese manga giant Hitotsubashi Group.

Hitotsubashi Group owns three major publishing houses, namely Shueisha, Hakusensha and Shogakukan, which can be described as strong strength.

In addition to Hitotsubashi, Jiang Feng also took a fancy to Sega, a major game company.

Of course, Jiang Feng is more interested in Nintendo.

Unfortunately, this was Nintendo’s heyday, so it was not cost-effective to buy it at this time.

Nintendo, which relied on the FC red and white console to win the game industry, is extremely arrogant. Its second-generation handheld console GameBoy has sold 200 million units, making it the most popular game company in the world.

The market value is as high as 20 billion US dollars.

Buying a gaming company for $20 billion? Is it worth it?

Jiang Feng felt it was not worth it.

If it were a later Penguin game, it might be worth it.

But spending 20 billion to buy a game company in the 1990s was just crazy.

What’s more important is that Nintendo’s myth is about to be broken by Sony.

Jiang Feng remembered that Sony launched the SP1 in 1994. With its strong performance and quality, it surpassed Nintendo and left it behind. It sold one million units that year.

Therefore, it is totally not worth spending a lot of money to acquire a company that is destined to be unlucky now.

If it really is an acquisition, why not wait until Nintendo is suppressed before acquiring it?

Of course, in Jiang Feng’s view, Nintendo’s handheld consoles and FC game consoles are not technically difficult. What he is interested in is Nintendo’s”Pokémon”》、《Super Mario” and other IPs!!

These two were a gold mine and he didn’t want to let them go.

As for Sega’s game production, it happened to be that Sega had not taken off yet. Jiang Feng hoped to acquire it and complete his plan to launch a game console.

The game is a golden phoenix that can lay eggs. How could Jiang Feng miss it?

Xiangchuan is the leader of the island country, and he will definitely get twice the result with half the effort.

Therefore, Jiang Feng left the acquisition of Sega and Shueisha to him. Instead, Jiang Feng supported Kagawa Shuo.

Between the two choices of surrendering to Jiang Feng and surrendering to Mitsui Taro, Kagawa Shuo chose to surrender to Jiang Feng without even thinking about it.

At least Jiang Feng won’t bully him like Taro Mitsui.

What’s more important is that Shuo Kagawa is unwilling to delegate power and does not want his property to be taken away by Taro Mitsui.

If he was willing to sell it, he would have sold it long ago, and there would be no trouble for Mitsui Taro to trouble him.

Therefore, after deciding to join Jiang Feng.

Xiangchuan Shusheng worked very hard to handle the tasks assigned by Jiang Feng.

And Jiang Feng was not idle either.

We inspected the operations of Jinxiu and Lanshan companies here.

Finally, we visited the Tokyo branch of Umbrella Company.

Not to mention, under the premise of the legalization of island country associations, the Umbrella Island Country Branch has done a great job and is somewhat famous in Tokyo, known for its powerful firepower.

There is nothing you can do. When you are waiting for a samurai sword, someone else will shoot you with a submachine gun or a machine gun.

It’s useless no matter how many people there are.

To put it simply, the Umbrella Island Country Branch is deeply accustomed to the concept of having fewer people but capable people. There are not many people, but their skills are very good. Coupled with the firepower support, basically no one is willing to antagonize Umbrella, not even the four major associations in the island country. willing.
