Giant of the times

When the four people playing cards heard this, they all looked at Ma Yun in astonishment.

At this moment, Ma Yun wanted to find a hole in the ground and crawl into it.

It's embarrassing and embarrassing!

…

…

It was an accident that Li Zetian met Ma Yun. He actually didn't want to meet Ma Yun so early. Ma Yun is just a freshman and has nothing outstanding. Everyone needs to grow. Li Zetian didn't want to encourage the young people to grow. Therefore, in the following days, although Li Zetian knew where Ma Yun was, he did not contact him, and even did not contact him for a long time in the future.

Li Zetian stayed in Hangzhou for a week. In addition to sightseeing, he also inspected Hangzhou's investments.

Hangzhou is a tourist destination, so Li Zetian's investments are mainly related to tourism, such as hotels, resorts, supermarkets, department stores, amusement parks, cinemas... The specific content is left to Chinese Real Estate to negotiate. Li Zetian communicated with the Hangzhou government and reached a preliminary agreement. intention to cooperate.

If nothing else, Chinese Real Estate will soon build a Chinese Plaza similar to Wanda Plaza in Hangzhou. This will be the largest investment project in Hangzhou.

"Chinese Plaza" is a key project launched by Chinese Real Estate in mainland China. Nowadays, channels are king and theater chains are king. Li Zetian plans to monopolize Chinese theater chains and establish huge influence in China's entertainment industry. If you watch a movie or a star that you don’t like, block it. Celebrities may seem awesome, but in front of Li Zetian, they are all scum. Which star Li Zetian wants to support has to be extremely popular. Li Zetian had to unofficially decide which celebrity he wanted, and he had to just wash his hands of it and sacrifice himself voluntarily. Of course, Li Zetian was very innocent and infatuated, and he never broke any unspoken rules.

The entertainment industry is very important to the development of all walks of life, especially the fan economy, which can create huge value. Otherwise, what celebrity endorsement would be needed? Just find a passerby...

Monopolizing theater chains is only the first step. With theater chains, film companies can naturally dominate the industry and quickly dominate the industry.

After the trip to Hangzhou, Li Zetian took his wife and children to travel to South Korea.

I haven’t relaxed for a long time. No matter how busy I am at work, I still need to relax.

This Christmas vacation is just for fun.

After getting off the plane at Seoul Airport in South Korea, and then checking the passport at the airport customs, an old Chinese man in line in front of Li Zetian searched for his passport for a long time but still couldn't find it. The Korean female customs officer glanced at the old man and asked sarcastically: "Have you been to Seoul?" ?”

The old man nodded: "Been here once."

The female customs officer glared at the old man: "Since you've been here once, why didn't you know to get your passport in advance?"

The old man shook his head and said blankly: "I didn't check my passport last time I came here."

The female customs officer looked in disbelief: "Impossible! Chinese people have to check their passports when they come to South Korea! When was the last time you came here?"

The old man said calmly: "In January 1951, when I arrived in a tank, no one dared to check my passport."

As soon as he finished speaking, the surroundings were so quiet that you could hear a pin drop, and the Korean female police officer's face suddenly became very ugly.

Li Zetian felt happy immediately. Damn it, this old man is so domineering! ! !

Because South Korea is developing faster than China, South Korean female police officers look down on the Chinese a little, and their words reveal contempt for the elderly. But who is the old man, a soldier to resist U.S. aggression and aid Korea? He knocked back the Korean female police officer with a simple sentence!

The Korean female police officer was so angry that she was speechless.

"Here, I found the passport!" the old man said calmly, and handed the passport to the female police officer.

The female police officer took the passport angrily, checked it, and found that there was nothing wrong with it. Then she returned the passport to the old man and let him pass.

This incident was just a small episode when Li Zetian's family came to Korea, but it was quite interesting and left a deep impression on Li Zetian...

The trip to Korea only lasted three days. I went to Gyeongbokgung Palace, Bukchon Hanok, Blue House, and Insadong to experience Korean traditional culture. I also went to Hongdae, Sinchon, Ewha University, and Myeongdong to experience Korean food and shopping. To be honest, South Korea is worthy of being one of the "Four Asian Tigers". It is developing very fast, with busy traffic and numerous high-rise buildings.

During this period, Li Zetian also contacted the South Korean government and briefly discussed some cooperation. I also attended a business banquet and met with the presidents of large group companies such as Samsung, LG, and Hyundai. I won’t go into detail about these trivial matters.

At the beginning of the new year, Nintendo’s annual financial statements for last year came out, and they were shocking. In 1984, Nintendo suffered a total loss of US$125 million, and Hiroshi Yamauchi was immediately kicked out of the company. As soon as the new president Ikeda took office, he immediately flew to the United States to negotiate with Nolan Bushnell.

Li Zetian also happened to return to the United States.

"What to talk about! There is nothing to talk about except Nintendo being acquired by Flamingo."

Nolan Bushnell asked Li Zetian for instructions, and Li Zetian replied like this.

President Ikeda's purpose in going to the United States is naturally to hope that Nintendo will become a third-party game developer for Flamingo Company and save the company from disaster.

However, Li Zetian was determined to bring down Nintendo.

News of the failure of negotiations between Nintendo and Flamingo spread quickly, causing Nintendo's stock price to collapse!

Right now, almost all home video game developers rely on Flamingo.

Nintendo is a family game development company. It has given up on its FC game platform. If the games it develops cannot be sold on the Flamingo platform, how can the company survive?

The Flamingo Company is now trying to ban Nintendo, and Nintendo is on the verge of death. At this moment, people inside Nintendo are panicking, and shareholders are meeting every three days to discuss whether to sell Nintendo. As the stock price plummeted, Nintendo's value became smaller and smaller, and everyone was anxious.

This lasted for a week, and the stock price had plummeted. Nintendo's shareholders couldn't hold on and finally decided to sell the company.

Therefore, President Ikeda then came to Flamingo Company to discuss the acquisition.

Of course, Flamingo Company wants to take advantage of the situation and lower the purchase price to the lowest. It is not Flamingo Company that is anxious now, but Nintendo. Nintendo is losing huge money every day. If it continues, Flamingo Company will continue to lower the price.

A week later, Nintendo had no choice but to finally accept Flamingo's acquisition of 74.5% of its shares for US$1.28 billion.

With Nintendo on its knees, Flamingo Company has no rival in the video game console market.

Li Zetian is very proud now. When he thinks that the company that was so awesome in his previous life is now his, he feels extremely proud.

However, Li Zetian began to think about another issue - computer games.

With the popularity of computers, computer games have become more and more important, so Flamingo Company naturally needs to make early plans.

In the video game market, as long as you master the game console platform, it is equivalent to mastering the cash cow. In the same way, in the PC game market, as long as you master the PC game platform, you will have a huge say. In the previous life, the Steam game sales platform was popular all over the world. The sales data were astonishingly good, crushing retailers and leaving company personnel sitting around counting money.

At present, Flamingo Company is taking advantage of its dominance in gaming to get involved in PC gaming. Once the Internet becomes popular, it will take the lead in establishing a PC gaming platform. From now on, it will be able to enjoy hot drinks and count money at home...
