Chapter 499

Last year, Xueleshan invested in three game companies, Nexon, NCsoft, and Actoz, and obtained more than 45% of the equity of the three Bangzi game companies, which is close to controlling.

   Nexon alone cost 12 million US dollars. This amount of money, not to mention the Bangzi game industry, even the entire Bangzi technology industry is definitely a big deal.

  Bangzi's current situation, the game and Internet industries that have just emerged, are basically wiped out, and even Samsung is in danger, let alone them.

  However, fortunately for Nexon, Xue Leshan, the father of the big benefactor, did not withdraw his investment and run away. Instead, he was willing to invest another dollar in Nexon, which is worth more than gold in the current stick.

   It seems to be a good thing, but Kim Jong-joo can't laugh. Xue Leshan's meaning is very clear, that is, to get a controlling stake in Nexon.

   This made Kim Jong-joo a little hesitant, he didn't want to hand over Nexon's lifeblood to Xue Leshan, and he was afraid that Xue Leshan would abandon Nexon.

But at this time, it's not about whether Kim Jong-joo wants to have a problem, but it depends on Xue Leshan's face. If the overlord really wants to force his bow, Kim Jong-joo dare not refuse, otherwise Xue Leshan will withdraw the funds backhandedly, and Nexon will stop immediately. .

   Not only Nexon, but the other two game manufacturers NCsoft and Actoz are basically similar. They are also facing the bottom line from Xue Leshan, but they dare not directly refuse.

   "President Kim, the people from the American headquarters have arrived in Seoul!"

The assistant came in and said to Kim Jong-joo that Marcus and Collison had notified Nexon and other companies when they came to Seoul. This time, the North American Global Investment Foundation also needed Kim Jong-joo and others to come forward and do something to Marcus and the others. It's not very convenient to come forward.

  Knowing that it was people from the parent company of the parent company Sierra Mountain, Kim Jong-joo did not dare to neglect. He didn't know why Marcus was here at this stall, but Kim Jong-joo also smelled something unusual.

The current stick is almost full of wind and rain, and there is a little turmoil, and it is estimated that it will be blown up. As a Ph. , Seize the most popular game industry in Bangzi.

   Kim Jong-joo brought people to the hotel where Marcus was staying. When he entered the hotel, he was checked before being let in.

   When going upstairs, Kim Jong-joo also saw two "old acquaintances". When the two saw Kim Jong-joo, they also looked at each other with Kim Jong-joo, then reluctantly nodded, and then turned their heads away.

  Seeing this scene, the assistants behind the three of them all lost their eyesight as if they hadn't seen anything.

Colleagues are enemies, and it's even more obvious when it's placed here in Bangzi. Bangzi's territory is so big and the population is so large. It's no problem for an industry to support a company, but if there are too many, then it's time to involve. It's the kind of fight to the death.

  Not to mention the game industry, besides Kim Jong-joo, the other two people here are NCsoft founder Jin Zechen and Actoz founder Park Guan-ho.

  The colleagues are already enemies, not to mention that the three of them are still eating in the same trough, let alone the one who rolled.

  The parent companies of the three companies are Xueleshan, but no one wants to be favored by Xueleshan alone. To get the beauty and resources of Xueleshan, now Xueleshan has to share the beauty of Xueleshan with three companies.

  Compared to Kim Jong-joo and Jin Zechen, Park Guan-ho stood aside, much more pleasing to the eye. Compared with the other two game makers, his Actoz was far smaller in scale.

   Even Park Guanhao himself is not quite clear why Xue Leshan favors him and is willing to invest in his Actoz game company.

   Facing the tit-for-tat Kim Jong-joo and Jin Zechen, Park Wan-ho stood aside and remained silent.

   "President Jin Zechen, I don't know what the people from the headquarters want to do this time?"

  After getting out of the elevator, Kim Jong-joo was the first to ask Jin Zechen, trying to test his tone.

  Jin Zechen just shook his head and glanced at Kim Jong-joo, but he knew that Kim Jong-joo had a lot of thoughts and always wanted to kill his NCsoft company.

According to the current form of the Bangzi game industry, with the support of Xueleshan, the big benefactor, in the future, the three game manufacturers of Nexon, NCsoft, and Actoz will basically dominate the game in Bangzi, and the most likely to become the number one game manufacturer in Bangzi is Born between Nexon and NCsoft!

   "President Kim Jong-joo was joking. You are well-informed. Who doesn't know that you have a close relationship with the Xuele Mountain headquarters. How can I hear the rumors that you don't know!"

   These words sounded like they were saying that Kim Jong-joo had a good relationship with the headquarters of Xueleshan, but in fact, in a place like Bangzi, the implicit meaning of these words was to call Kim Jong-joo a **** of Xueleshan.

  Hearing this, Kim Jong-joo's face darkened, and he glanced at Jin Zechen with an unfriendly expression. He said that he did not curse at others, nor did he expose others' faults. Jin Zechen pointed at Kim Jong-ju's nose and scolded.

Just when he was about to curse back, he had already arrived at the place. Kim Jong-joo had to straighten his clothes and prepare to meet Marcus. It was the first time he met someone at the headquarters. No matter what Jin Zechen said, he needed to make a good impression on Marcus. All right, a few words of scolding are nothing compared to his worth.

  The suite where Marcus lived was not small in size. In addition to the lounge, it also included a study and a living room. After passing through the living room, the three of Kim Jong-joo saw Marcus who was writing with his head down.

   "Manager Marcus!"

  After seeing Marcus, the three immediately greeted Marcus. When Marcus saw the three, he raised his head and said to several people, "Please sit down!"

   "I'm in a hurry this time, I'll let you have a hard time!" Marcus said to several people, his attitude was very kind, without the slightest contempt, which greatly benefited the three of them.

On Bangzi's side, there have been countless foreign-invested companies over the years, but their attitude towards Bangzi is very arrogant, especially American companies, which have always regarded themselves as suzerain countries, so Bangzi's feelings towards these foreign companies are naturally contradictory .

   "Manager Marcus is serious, this is what we should do!" Jin Zechen said to Marcus.

   Seeing Jin Zechen's attitude towards Marcus, Jin Zhengzhou glanced at him, and just now scolded himself as a dog's leg, Jin Zechen was not much better than himself.

   "Manager Marcus, I have always regretted not having the opportunity to go to the headquarters to report on the status of Nexon. It is Nexon's luck that you are here this time!"

  Kim Jong-joo remained calm and stole the right to speak from Jin Zechen, "Now Nexon is developing the online game "Kingdom of Winds", which is expected to be put into trial operation this year..."

   Kim Jong-joo turned to Marcus and talked about Nexon's plan. Jin Zechen, who was on the side, did not expect that Kim Jong-joo moved so fast, and he was already preparing to start releasing a new game.

Marcus nodded after listening to Jin Zhengzhou's words. He only knew about Xuele Mountain. When Song Yang asked ICQ to buy Xuele Mountain and several game studios under it, Song Yang I thought it was a loser, but as a result, Blizzard's "Diablo" made ICQ a lot of money, and the pre-sale of "StarCraft" made this game the most anticipated game in America this year. top of the list.

As for whether the game developed by Nexon makes money, Marcus is not sure, but he knows that Song Yang regards the game business as a channel for ICQ traffic to be realized. I am very looking forward to it, and I wonder if it can become another cash cow of the North American Global Investment Fund like Alcatel's mobile phone business!

   "I will report the status of Nexon and other companies to director Bruno Song. I think he is very happy with the game business here."

Hearing Marcus mention Song Yang, Jin Zhengzhou and others, their expressions changed slightly. Although they haven't met Song Yang, they also know about this upstart who resounds through the Internet. During the trip, the Bangzi media also reported the news about Song Yang.

  From an unknown person, to becoming famous overnight with the help of the Internet, and now to become one of the richest people in the world, Song Yang's name can also be called a "legend" in Bangzi!
