Chapter 839 Two game companies (2)
Since agreeing to the acquisition, Zhou Shi more or less needs to understand the current game industry. Not to mention the domestic Penguin, NetEase, nor to mention game companies like Sony, Microsoft and Apple. The leader in the market is Activision Blizzard (not renamed now), and World of Warcraft is its ace. In addition to its own games, its gaming business also has an agency bank, with a market value of around 1.1 billion US dollars. Well, it's not bad, worth investing, but unfortunately it's controlled by Vivendi.&1t;/p>
The second place should be ea, this old game company, which has the most interests. It has always tried every means to pay from players' pockets through games, not to improve the quality of its own game. It has also destroyed countless well-known game studios, and each of them was once the benchmark in the industry, but after being acquired by ea, it was brutally abandoned because it could not make profits and had no commercial value. This is the worst game company in the United States...&1t;/p>
The Ubisoft and Ea that Chen Yifan wanted to acquire were actually half a dozen, and it was the worst European game company. His shortcomings were counted casually: many bugs, water lock in the screen, poor optimization, potato server, play your platform, swallow archives, formulaic sandbox, pre-order player faces, classic IP terminator.md, what kind of company is this? Zhou Shi looked at Chen Yifan in doubt.&1t;/p>
"This company always has all kinds of genius creativity. Every time everyone is disappointed with him, they can always come up with a large number of new ideas to surprise us. In this case, after we acquire Ubisoft, we can complement each other's advantages. Using Ubisoft's creativity and the meticulous time game, and in conjunction with Time Cloud services, Ubisoft's game level can improve Ubisoft's game level by a higher level, and can use China's human resources to reduce costs." Chen Yifan&1t;/p>
It sounds good, probably not a fool! Zhou Shi thought to himself. However, the French working environment is really a torture for enterprises. It is really not a good place for entrepreneurship. Even if a large company goes, there will be no good experience. Compared with the hard work of China, Europeans, especially French, are really lazy to the extreme. There are only about 30 hours of working hours a week, and later there are even only 26 hours of working hours. What efficiency can this situation be?&1t;/p>
What Zhou Shi didn't know is that Ubisoft actually has many overseas studios. Maybe they themselves know what the French are doing. Everything is concentrated in France, so there is basically no hope of opening the game.&1t;/p>
&1t;/p>
Of course, some people say that Europeans are highly efficient because they don’t play with mobile phones when they work and are very focused; my country’s overtime work is inefficient, and they play with mobile phones when doing experiments at work, watch news, and chat. It seems reasonable, but high work efficiency can only be individual elites. Such elites will not be fewer than them, and European elites will not be more than China, otherwise there will be no technological progress in China over the years. If human resources can be used to fill in the disadvantages in the field of high-tech, China will have already flown to the sky. Even if Europe discriminates against Chinese people, then scientific and technological achievements will never be unconvincing, right?&1t;/p>
Work efficiency can only be analyzed in detail. If you compare it across a large scale, the sales volume of Chinese companies is obviously much higher than that of European companies, and many people who do foreign trade imports and exports have a deep understanding. In China, they can delay problems solved by phone. So it is really unfair to say that Chinese companies rely entirely on demographic dividends when they travel to Europe and the United States. At this time, Chinese people who dare to fight and fight have too many commendable qualities like the Japanese who went to the world at the time. The efficiency of Chinese Internet companies is
Rate shocked the world. After all, technology has reached a certain level, and quantity is difficult to make up for the quality gap. However, how long this enviable situation can last is unknown. Japan's previous lessons give us great inspiration. An overly high welfare system is the biggest obstacle to suppressing the development of start-ups. Europe's high welfare is the silent blocking of vested interests from latecomers. The various benefits of the United States are not as good as Europe, but their innovation capabilities are world-class. From this result, we can reverse the reason.&1t;/p>
Startups are not able to pay such high welfare benefits. Once startups and mature companies have to pay the same labor costs, it is obviously blocking the possibility of latecomers. The high exhibition in the Internet industry is beyond the expectations of most people, and measures such as equity incentives have made up for the gap in welfare benefits to a certain extent. Therefore, there have been countless wealth miracles in Silicon Valley over the past few decades. Don’t think that high treatment and high welfare are good for companies such as Microsoft, Google, and this is their silent suppression of this society. It is equivalent to building an extremely high moat in the field they are best at. Unfortunately, Buffett cannot understand this, so he has never invested in high-tech Internet companies.&1t;/p>
"zyo can bring more publicity and promotion channels to R-Xinghe 2k games, and take-to's talents and IP advantages can bring more possibilities to zynga..." Chen Yifan&1t;/p>
Time Games controls this zynga. Although the company's stock price is not good, it still has a rich cash reserve. After all, zynga does not need to be offered like Time Games. If Take-to company can agree to zynga's acquisition, it will not be difficult for him. The difficulty is that Time Games acquires Ubisoft, not only a financial problem, but also a policy problem. France actually has many ideas for the acquisition of overseas capital. What's more, it is that he has offended France recently, and his financial strength has not spread to France, which has caused many additional difficulties for Time Games to acquire Ubisoft. In addition, Chen Yifan's acquisition of Ubisoft is really for the exhibition of Time Games. Will he have other ideas, such as time swallowing too much profit of Time Games, and want to take this opportunity to reduce support for Time?&1t;/p>
No matter what Chen Yifan has, his idea of acquiring a stand-alone game company and strengthening himself cannot be miscalculated. And if the prince is in trouble, it is the least difficult to acquire Ubisoft. Should we wait a few years later, Ubisoft will recover and even if we have money, we cannot acquire it? A few years later, Ubisoft turned losses into profits. With GTA making a big profit, they refused to acquire it at a premium. You should know that at that time, Vivandi sold Activision Blizzard's stock and had a large sum of money in his hand. So when Ubisoft and Ubisoft's investors were most desperate, it was the best time to propose an acquisition.&1t;/p>
Time Games has another advantage, that is, the mitimegames platform has defeated va1va's steam in many aspects in market and technology with the promotion of powerful social network channels and the assistance of Time Cloud, becoming the world's number one game platform today. Ubisoft and Time itself have cooperation and know each other's strength.&1t;/p>
