Rebirth of the Tech Madman

Chapter 869: You lose me and get Softbank in place

...

People are too good to break, and there are troubles, like the richest man in Tang-with his knowledgeable and old eyes, he must admit that Cao Xingcheng does not work hard for public relations.

In fact, everyone knows that this kind of "mind" will never achieve the effect of determining the success or failure of things, but it can actually enhance personal friendship.

In order to do this, the richest man had to stay on Baodao for two more days, and from this, he paid attention to the living conditions of emerging singers such as Meng Tingwei and Zhang Yusheng, so as to avoid accidents because the Baodao circle is too dark. Tragedy of —— You know, after vcd, he still has big moves in the layout of the music industry.

At this time, Xiangjiang's secret negotiation on building a superstar also came to fruition.

Seeing that there was no unexpected name on the fax, Tang Huan shook his head straight, having to admit that under the current situation, there are really not many choices.

In addition to Liu Dehua, the "middleman", DreamWorks favored Zhang Xueyou and TVB favored Li Ming.

To be honest, these people's career has something to do with tvb.

Zhang Xueyou became popular as the successor of Guan Zhengjie. The sales of the first two albums were several platinum, and Lu Fang became a new generation of popular idol singers.

But because success came so easily, Zhang Xueyou was lost in the bizarre entertainment circle. In 1987 and 1988, his career fell to the bottom, causing people to be too decadent, soaking in Stormwind all day, drinking heavily.

It was at this stage that DreamWorks extended a helping hand and pulled Zhang Xueyou out of the abyss and put his career back on track. Music and film went hand in hand, so that he now has a distress, that is, he must start from the two. Choose one of them as the focus of your career and make every effort to develop.

Li Ming and Andy Lau have similar experiences. They won the third runner-up in the "Rookie Singing Contest" in 1986. After entering TVB, they were arranged to play supporting roles in TV dramas, including some villain roles. They were even hidden by TVB and went to the treasure island to develop.

Maybe the person is handsome and the chance will be delivered by himself. Li Ming's career is still developing. If he plays a TVB TV series, he can no longer be a supporting role. Last year, he played the role of Lin Yilong in "People on the Edge", which attracted much attention. It became popular because of the episode "If This Is Love".

Now, Li Ming and Andy Lau have similar idol styles, fascinating young female fans to death.

Tang Huan has no opinion on this plan that balances the interests of DreamWorks and tvb-except for the feeling that the "three kings" are really awkward, but it is too troublesome to add candidates and can only be dealt with in this way first.

tvb and DreamWorks secretly reached this agreement, which means that from now on, the resources controlled by both parties will be tilted towards these three people in an all-round way. One of the major performances is to win various awards.

Although such an arrangement will inevitably suppress other people's chances of getting ahead, on the whole, today's Chinese-speaking entertainment circle does need a leader in the banner.

Therefore, the idea that Tang Huan's counterpart Yihua came up with based on the interests of the tvb party rarely fully supports it.

At the same time, Cao Xingcheng arrogantly announced that UMC will introduce the world's most advanced 8-inch wafer technology, creating a precedent in the semiconductor industry of Baodao—the implication is that TSMC has the support of his father. I am not bad, with my brother as the backing, and once again pressure you.

...

The richest man stopped paying attention to the fights in the treasure island circle. He sat on his own Silicon Valley One, and went to rb. Because the schedule was slightly delayed, he flew directly to Fukuoka, the largest city in Kyushu, and attended the Fukuoka Dome Stadium. Opening ceremony.

The so-called "dome" refers to the arched roof of a building.

This is popular now, and Fukuoka Dome is the second egg of rb after Tokyo Dome, and it is a representative work of Tang Huan’s investment in rb real estate.

From the 38957.44 points on December 29 of the previous year, the Nikkei index has slumped all the way to the current 23,000 points, which has evaporated by about 40%. The bursting of the stock market bubble gradually began to affect the real estate market.

However, Tang Huan intends to keep the Fukuoka Dome first. The stadium, which costs 76 billion yen and can accommodate more than 35,000 people, was jointly developed by him and Daiei, the rb national supermarket chain group. Its deteriorating performance could no longer be covered in the second half of last year, so some non-core assets had to be stripped to save the emergency. The richest man took over the other party's rights and the baseball team.

Sun Zhengyi, who greeted Tang Huan, couldn't help but confirm with excitement: "The Fukuoka Dome and the Fukuoka Eagles of the rb professional baseball Pacific League really want to name SoftBank?"

Baseball is extremely popular in rb. It is known as the second largest national skill in rb sports after sumo. The degree of commercialization of professional games is also very high. Especially the rb professional football league has not yet been established to grab the audience-this is Tang Huan The main reason for deciding to keep the Fukuoka Dome baseball stadium is that he also has a major league baseball team in the United States.

The rb professional baseball league allowed the team to change its name due to the change of sponsors. Tang Huan decided to give this opportunity to expand its popularity to the rapidly growing SoftBank.

Sun Zhengyi, the founder, has undergone two major changes so far-he has recovered from chronic hepatitis, and he has been naturalized as an rb citizen. This makes Softbank's development a backbone, and it is also a veritable rb company.

In the beginning, the business scope of Softbank was in the media field. Now Tang Huan has taken the opportunity of privatization of the rb telecom industry to extend its tentacles into the communications field.

The rb Telecom and Telephone Commune, like its counterparts all over the world, has become a piece of fat that everyone covets by monopolizing the profits of franchise. After being privatized, it has become a golden mountain and silver sea in the rb stock market bubble, attracting all parties. The forces involved in it can be described as a shadow of a sword; in contrast, the rb state-owned railway, which is ill-fed, will not have so many fierce fights that everyone wants to take a bite into during the privatization process.

It was in this situation that SoftBank obtained control of the rb state-owned railway communication network and developed into one of rb's four domestic Internet access companies alongside rb telecommunications and telephone companies and other enterprises.

The rb stock market bubble has burst, and the real estate bubble is about to burst. I don't know if the current rb elites have realized that the "lost decade" has kicked off.

In the opinion of the richest man, it is time for SoftBank, which is ready to take its place, to become bigger, and brand management is essential.

Therefore, Tang Huan replied in a positive tone with a smile: "Of course, and after SoftBank goes public, this part of the assets can still be completely owned by SoftBank."

Of course, Sun Zhengyi understands the advertising effect of the rb major league baseball, but he is not satisfied with this, but took a short time, Xiang Tang Huan, who once had the opportunity to completely eat SoftBank during his illness, but not so much. As an important investor, he put his heart in the heart and suggested: "If SoftBank wants to develop into a star enterprise recognized by rb, some facade processes are still indispensable, such as an overseas acquisition with sufficient weight to prove its international status. ."

Tang Huan nodded his head when he heard it. The rb people’s love-to-see problem would not immediately converge because the stock market plummeted. SoftBank really needs to put gold on his face.

However, pragmatic and savvy people like Xiang Tang Huan and Sun Zhengyi will certainly not be so fake in their operation.

Sun Zhengyi added: "This overseas acquisition must not be acquired for the sake of acquisition. SoftBank is not comparable to Sony, which acquired Columbia Pictures, Mitsubishi Estate, which acquired Rockefeller Center, and Panasonic, which acquired Universal Pictures, so it has squandered capital. This acquisition should immediately bring opportunities and impetus to the development of SoftBank."

Such an ideal acquisition target is really not easy to find. It is estimated that top financial services companies such as Goldman Sachs and Morgan Stanley should be asked to help.

Tang Huan pondered for a long time, then slowly said, "What do you think of comdex?"

"Of course it's fine!" Sun Zhengyi, who heard it brightly, replied without thinking.

Sun Zhengyi knows how beautiful comdex is now, and what is even more impressive is the summit forum during the Las Vegas Autumn Fair. The big names in the IT industry talked and gave pointers, not to mention how impassioned.

However, Sun Zhengyi hesitated immediately, "With years of dedication to showcasing the latest computer hardware, software, peripherals, network products and the latest technology, Comdex is currently considered the number one event in the IT industry. Can its shareholders be willing to sell it? "

"You don't know about it." Tang Huan smiled slightly. "Comdex's absolute shareholder-Sheldon Adelson, established Las Vegas Sands Casino Hotel in 1988 after buying the famous Las Vegas Sands Casino Hotel. The Vegas Sands Group, and then built the largest privately-owned and operated conference center in the United States, the Sands Convention and Exhibition Center last year, is obviously shifting the focus of its business and doing business that is better at and more profitable."

Sun Zhengyi swallowed secretly, suppressed his excitement and asked, "I don't know how much money must be used to win comdex?"

"I really don't know this question. Wait for me to ask the consultant team." Tang Huan gestured to the assistant. Not long after, Tang's think tank gave the result-the current comdex value will not be less than 700 million US dollars. .

Knowing this result, Sun Zhengyi slapped his thigh with confidence, "As long as the size of the funds does not exceed $1 billion, I am sure that SoftBank will get a loan from the bank."

"The key to that question is how to persuade Sheldon Adelson to make this deal." Tang Huan smiled. "This new gambling tycoon has just gotten married for the second time and doesn't know his honeymoon. After all, we have to be patient."

...

While contacting Sheldon Adelson and waiting for a reply, Tang Huan came to Tokyo to handle some official duties.

The burst of the rb economic bubble will inevitably have a negative impact on the IT budget of various companies. It is completely certain that the scale of computer procurement will decline in recent years.

In the past, rb people only bought the most expensive ones, and rarely considered whether the computer performance was wasted, but now they must plan carefully.

However, the foundation of rb, after all, is there. As far as personal computers are concerned, the annual sales volume will not be less than 2 million units, especially the position of the world's second largest it consumer market after the United States. It will not be shaken.

Of course, the established Fangyuan computer standard has a stable position and firmly dominates the rb market.

The video game industry is naturally also an important part of the inspection by the richest man. In the current era of 32-bit game consoles, Nintendo and Sega, who are in the position of the younger brothers, want to turn over, it is unlikely.

One project that Tang Huan is interested in is the production of the video game "Tomb Raider", which he has created for Lin Qingxian with great interest.

There is no doubt that in this version of "Tomb Raider", the heroine and story background have been changed to the East~www.wuxiaspot.com~ Anyway, with the success of the previous "Phantom of the Tomb Raider" series of films worldwide, this Similar to the subject of Eastern culture, the audience has been established.

Looking at the 2.5d effect of the game that will be launched before Christmas this year, Tang Huan is very satisfied-his Lin Meiren. Something is busy now.

In addition, Tang Huan also visited the development of nec's supercomputer under the warm hospitality of the rb official.

These few years. rb and the United States have a sense of wrestling their wrists on supercomputers. They once sat on the throne of the world’s fastest computer, but soon the richest man who returned from the Arctic scientific expedition presided over the overall situation and used the Fangyuan supercomputer. .

rb is the virtue of kneeling and licking the strong, and he treats the richest man in every possible way, hoping that he can give some pointers during the visit.

In fact, after the successful research and development of the risc microprocessor used in the Fangyuan supercomputer, holder, Tang Huan deliberately divided it into two branches, one low and one high. The former is in Asia, through philosopher Xiangjiang and Sharp. The form of the richest man in China and rb looked at the results of nec, and could vaguely find the shadow of his own holder system. It was really easy to express an opinion, and the rb people scratched their heads.

After teasing these guys, Sheldon Adelson from the United States also gave a happy reply, willing to sell the shares of comdex-he is an absolute shareholder. This statement also means that comdex will be closed. Into the hands of Softbank.

The fact is the same. After Tang Huan and Sun Zhengyi arrived in Las Vegas on the Silicon Valley One, they successfully concluded the acquisition of comdex for US$852 million, which instantly became the focus of the industry.
