Chapter 5 Sacrificing Nexon

The top floor of a high-end residential building in Jiangnan District.

This is where Li Yuanbin currently lives.

I have been living here since I moved out of home two years ago.

Enter the password and open the door.

A feeling of emptiness came over me.

Turn on the switch on the wall and the lights will turn on instantly.

Everything about this house is good, but it's not popular.

Li Yuanbin sighed slightly and walked to the bathroom.

As he walked, he took off the tie around his neck and threw it into the box at the bathroom door.

After I came out of the shower, I picked up a bottle of red wine from the wine cabinet, along with a glass, and went to the balcony.

Sit on a chair in front of the floor-to-ceiling windows, pour yourself a glass, and savor it.

I recall the experience of this day in my mind and watch the scenes play in my mind.

But somehow, Minnie's figure appeared in front of Li Yuanbin again.

Li Yuanbin quickly shook his head and secretly despised himself: "What's wrong with you? You can't walk when you see a beautiful woman, right?"

Pick up the wine glass next to you and drink it in one gulp.

His eyes became firm again and his thoughts became active.

Take out your computer and get ready to read the latest news.

When I open the search engine, the first thing I see is a piece of news about the gaming industry.

I saw that it was a well-known big shot who broke the news.

Peninsula gaming company Nexon acquired NCsoft shares and became its largest shareholder. The two parties officially launched a plan to acquire Electronic Arts, a large American game developer.

Seeing this, Li Yuanbin showed a smile.

They don't know yet that he is leading all of this.

I dug out my address book, scrolled down to find that person's name, and made a call.

"President, please give me your instructions."

Not long after, the call was connected, and a deep male voice came from the other end of the phone.

"Nexon is ready to sell out. We will contact Nexon Chairman Kim Jong-joo in the next few days to see if he is interested in taking up the shares in our hands."

"I see."

The person on the other end of the phone responded quickly without hesitation.

They obeyed Li Yuanbin's orders unconditionally.

"Then we are going to set up a team to be responsible for contacting NCsoft and Marble Group. We will be the bridge."

"I will arrange the specific time."

"Understood, I will complete it as soon as possible." The answer was still as clear and resounding as ever.

Hang up the phone, put the phone next to the wine glass, put his left hand on the armrest, and tap unconsciously.

My eyes looked outside through the floor-to-ceiling windows, looked at the streets, and looked at the people running for life.

At this point, planning can begin with the next step.

Nexon Game Company is one of the many companies invested by Star Capital.

Currently, Star Capital occupies many seats on the Nexon board of directors. It can be said that Nexon is controlled by Star Capital, and Kim Jong Joo is the puppet supported by Li Wonbin.

Originally, this puppet worked well, and Li Yuanbin didn't mind taking them with him.

However, Kim Jong Joo-cheon should not have had his own small thoughts and actually contacted other companies privately to prepare to kick Star Capital out of the game.

Then Li Yuanbin was not polite and allowed him to acquire NCsoft shares and become the majority shareholder of NCsoft.

Then let their target company EA reject the acquisition proposal.

But at this time, Nexon had become NCsoft's major shareholder. NCsoft founder Kanazawa wanted to fight against Nexon and did not want it to increase its shareholding to more than 15%, so he assigned senior executives to interfere with NCsoft's management rights.

They can only seek cooperation with Marble Group and Star Capital, which are weak in the PC gaming market.

Marble’s biggest advantage is that it has nearly 35 million members and is the largest gaming platform on the peninsula.

However, such an outstanding marble has mediocre qualifications in the PC game market.

As a major game company in Peninsula, NCsoft owns games such as "Blade and Soul" and "Aion", and has a large player base both locally and around the world.

Although NCsoft has made great achievements in PC games, it has not yet seen any improvement in the field of mobile games.

So, in order to deal with Nexon's next move, Jin Zechen's best way is to cooperate with marble.

This can not only deal with Nexon's interference in the company, but also make further progress in the gaming field, which is in the common interests of both parties.

In this way, Li Yuanbin has completed part of his commitment to Marble Group and entered the PC game market.

As for Nexon, it would be better to just give up.

Another use of gold fingers: asset sacrifice function.

You can sacrifice the assets you control. After the sacrifice is successful, you will get points that can be exchanged for things needed in the dormitory.

[Note: The assets that are sacrificed will always have bad luck and will go bankrupt quickly. 】

Dogs raised at home should be more obedient. Dogs that are disobedient will certainly have to suffer a little.

Li Yuanbin silently sentenced Nexon Company to death in his heart, and registered Nexon's name in the sacrifice function column.

After everyone from Star Capital withdraws, the big drama of Nexon can begin.

"Ding dong ding~"

A notification tone came from the mailbox on Li Yuanbin's computer.

He opened it and saw that it was an email from his secretary Park Seol-yoon about angel investors.

There are several documents inside, all about recently launched start-ups or projects.

There are companies or projects that Star Capital has evaluated and deemed to have development prospects.

Star Capital will act as an angel investor.

After reading a few copies, Li Yuanbin lost interest.

It's not that it's bad, it's just not that good.

Suddenly, Li Yuanbin discovered an interesting plan.

It is a mobile application about communication between celebrities and fans as well as fan club functions.

It allows users to receive messages, photos, videos, etc. sent by celebrities, and can also communicate with fans.

"Well... that means you can upload unpublished photos and videos to bring us closer..."

A good idea, the contactless platform allows people to be free from time and space constraints.

After replying to Park Seol-yun in agreement, Li Wonbin closed the computer.

After finishing all this, a long time has passed and half a bottle of red wine has been consumed.

I looked at the time, it was getting late, it was time to go to bed.

Lying on the bed, Li Yuanbin manually searched for (G)I-DLE.

A Korean female singing group launched by Cube Entertainment on May 2, 2018, with six members.

The name of the group means that girls with different personalities gather together.

"It's a bit like that cat, for a dream."

Speaking of that cat, Li Yuanbin hasn't seen her for a long time.

Speaking of that girl, she has some connection with Li Yuanbin.

Since sending her to JYP as a trainee in 2015, the two of them have met only a handful of times.

Then scrolling down, a report caught Li Yuanbin's attention.

(G)I-DLE will participate in CUBE Entertainment's family concert "2018 UNITED CUBE -ONE-" on the 23rd.

Li Yuanbin thought about it in his mind and realized that there were no work arrangements for the 23rd.
