Top of the big era

Europe's development in the Internet field is relatively backward, but they do not want to give up, and then they uniformly chose a very similar IT development path.

The UK is focusing on promoting the development of the game industry, and the same is true in continental Europe, including Germany, France, Italy, Denmark, Portugal...

The most important gathering place for game R\u0026D in Germany is Hamburg, the first location of Ziweixing’s cloud data center in continental Europe.

The work here in Munich is over.

Very smooth.

The valuation of Ziweixing Digital Media is US$3.5 billion, which is irrefutable!

Allianz Investment Fund stopped struggling and reached a preliminary verbal commitment, saying it might invest about US$220 million. However, in order to formally sign the contract, they have to wait for their investment team to go to London to conduct a detailed and careful investigation of the project.

Allianz Group has sponsored the football industry for decades and they are very interested in Ziweixing Digital Media.

Another investment company from continental Europe that has been selected is from France. A French strategic investment fund held 51% by French credit institutions and 49% by the government. The fund was established in February this year and gives priority to investing in strategic industries.

Zhou Buqi has no plans to go to France. Under Tang Binchen's suggestion, Ziweixing will promote new strategic businesses and prioritize the gaming industry.

I just happened to go to Hamburg for a walk.

Hamburg's local political and business circles formed a reception group to assist him in conducting research on the local game industry, hoping that Hamburg's game industry could be deeply integrated with Ziweixing's business and develop in a mutually beneficial manner.

Definitely.

There are more than 500 local game companies in Hamburg, among which there are only 7 "large companies" with more than 100 employees, and the vast majority are small companies with a few or more than a dozen employees.

There are more than 500 game companies with only more than 8,300 employees, an average of less than 17 people per company.

Zhou Buqi is an expert, and he can basically tell the direction of these game companies based on their company size, and there are three types of them.

First, game agency companies help foreign game companies distribute and produce products in their own countries;

Second, the light game company produces some online web games and social games on the Facebook open platform;

Third, mobile games.

At this time, whether it is a feature phone or a smart phone, the performance of mobile phones is very poor, which results in mobile games can only be small games with simple gameplay and simple design.

This fully shows that the development of the IT industry in Germany is very poor, and even when it comes to games, the level is very low. It is not as good as China, Japan and South Korea, and it is not as good as its competitor in the EU, the United Kingdom.

Now, the wave of mobile Internet is coming with great vigor, and the times are changing a lot, one day at a time. If Ziweixing wants to make games, it will be too slow if it cannot start from scratch.

We can only use some simple and straightforward methods to buy, buy, buy!

Buy some good companies with potential, and then set up the game business group of Ziweixing International.

There seems to be little to explore in Germany.

Zhou Buqi's interest dropped sharply and he could only turn his attention back to the direction of cloud computing and gave a speech——

“According to statistics, 90% of companies around the world are unable to resist hacker attacks. To take a step back, all information placed on the network may theoretically be stolen. This is a dilemma. Because it is convenient to communicate and obtain accurate information. It's part of the reason why the Internet makes companies run more efficiently. But the more stuff you put online, the greater the risk of being hacked."

"Large companies are better off, but small companies have the greatest hidden dangers. Too many small and medium-sized enterprises have gone bankrupt because of hacker attacks, which have hindered their business. Cloud computing projects can effectively solve this problem. Ziweiyun has reached an agreement with Allianz Insurance After signing a preliminary agreement, Allianz will guarantee Ziweiyun. Once users purchase Ziweiyun’s services and are hacked, they will receive corresponding compensation.”

"Hamburg is the game capital of Germany, but I found that there are too many small and medium-sized game companies here. Operations with meager profits have weak risk tolerance. Ziweiyun's mission is to help large companies improve operational efficiency and provide small and medium-sized enterprises with Protect your survival!"

"Ziweixing and the German SAP Group have a good cooperative relationship, and both parties are also willing to carry out further cooperation in the field of cloud computing. In the future, customers can use cloud-based SAP software services on Ziweiyun's platform, and there are many Lots and lots of middleware, integration algorithms and database services.”

"The times are changing, and cloud computing is the infrastructure of the Internet under the new situation. With Ziwei Cloud, the spring of small and medium-sized enterprises has arrived! Ziwei Cloud will conduct comprehensive and in-depth business cooperation with the German IT industry to find common progress and promote development A new direction!”

"In the future, I believe that the German IT industry can..."

The next day, Germany's well-known Bild, Die Zeit, Die Welt, Sueddeutsche Zeitung, and many online platforms reported on this blockbuster news in the technology world.

Many media even published the full text of Boss Zhou's speech.

In this summer of panic when hackers are raging and attacking all over the world like mad dogs, Zhou Buqi's speech undoubtedly points the way forward for many worried small and medium-sized enterprises.

It's like the clear rain in summer.

…

Manchester, Old Trafford.

Zhou Buqi attended an important summer transfer window meeting.

Because of the blind box business, Zhou Buqi requires that all transfers in the summer be completed before August 1st. So by mid-July, the transfer work in the summer window was basically completed.

Players introduced:

Beckham, loan;

Robben, transferred from Real Madrid for 30 million euros;

Bastian Schweinsteiger, transferred from Bayern Munich for 35 million euros;

Lahm, 40 million euros, transferred from Bayern Munich;

Bale, £13.5 million, transferred from Tottenham Hotspur.

All five transfers have been completed.

There are also Robin van Persie who transferred from Arsenal for 20 million euros, Yaya Toure who transferred from Barcelona for 30 million euros, Baines who transferred from Everton for 8 million euros, and Tito who transferred from AC Milan for 25 million euros. Yago Silva.

All three transactions are also close to completion.

That's pretty much the end.

This summer, Manchester United will introduce 9 new players and spend 210 million euros in transfer fees. Including signing fees for players and commissions for agents, the total expenditure is as high as 240 million euros!

With the introduction of so many new players, many people in the team are destined to leave.

One transfer transaction has already been completed.

Ronaldo moved to Real Madrid for 80 million pounds, Tevez moved to Manchester City for 25 million pounds, Fletcher moved to Everton for 8 million pounds, Anderson was spotted by Manchester City for 18 million pounds, and Brown moved to Manchester City for 4 million pounds. Price went to Sunderland.

Hargreaves went to Arsenal on loan and Manchester United paid 50% of his salary, and Nani went to La Liga strong team Valencia for a transfer fee of 20 million euros.

Zhou Buqi originally planned to sell Berbatov and Nani together, but Ferguson insisted and did not agree. Manchester United did not buy their favorite center this summer, and Berbatov cannot sell him.

So far, Manchester United has signed 8 people this summer, with a total expenditure of 240 million euros; it has transferred 7 people, with a revenue of 175 million euros.

As for Manchester United Women…

European women's football is still in the semi-professional and semi-amateur stage. Manchester United has invested 800,000 euros in the women's football transfer market and plans to buy 13 people, each of whom is currently the top female football player in the world.

Women's soccer girls are too cheap, but men's soccer players are too expensive.

At this point, Manchester United's 23-man first team roster for the new season has basically been determined.

No. 1, Edwin van der Sar;

No. 2, Neville;

No. 3, Evra;

No. 4, Ram;

No. 5, Ferdinand;

No. 6, Thiago Silva;

No. 7, Beckham;

No. 8, Schweinsteiger;

No. 9, Berbatov;

No. 10, Rooney;

No. 11, Ryan Giggs;

No. 12, Bynes;

No. 13, Park Ji-sung;

No. 14, Yaya Toure;

No. 15, Vidic;

No. 16, Carrick;

No. 17, Robben;

No. 18, Scholes;

No. 19, Robin van Persie;

No. 20, Gareth Bale;

No. 22, O’Shea;

No. 23, Evans;

No. 29, Kushchak.

Zhou Buqi is very satisfied with this lineup transformation. Although Ronaldo has left, the overall strength has been greatly strengthened!

In the era of Messi and Ronaldo, no one can compete with them.

Manchester United can only make a fuss about being "third in the world".

Potential No. 3 players in the world in the future include Rooney, Ribery, Robben, Bale, Ibrahimovic, Modric, Neymar, Hazard, Lewandowski, etc.

Now, Manchester United has recruited the third one!

The world's No. 1 and No. 2 players are both in Real Madrid and Barcelona, ​​so there's no way to grab them.

But it doesn't matter. Manchester United can recruit a group of "third players in the world" to come over and compete with the top two in La Liga through stronger overall strength.

Last year, Manchester United's lineup was very thin, with many old and young players. They suffered a lot in multi-line operations and suffered many injuries. This season is different, with so many outstanding players introduced.

As long as it's done well, it's very possible to reach the Champions League final next season.

Of course, there are more expenses.

Last season, Manchester United's total player salary was only 85 million pounds. Next season, it will grow to 110 million pounds, plus 60 million pounds of losses in the transfer market, plus many contract renewals...

The team's budget expenditure for the coming season will be 90 million pounds more than this past season.

You know, this past season, Manchester United's profit was more than 90 million pounds.

In other words, based on past business revenue capabilities, even if Manchester United can reach the Champions League finals and win the Premier League championship this season, it will break even at most!

Once the performance is a little worse, you may suffer losses.

After the meeting, David Gill found Zhou Buqi and said: "Next summer, Old Trafford will renovate the South Stand, which will require an investment of at least 50 million pounds. And the renovation of the South Stand will take at least 6-8 months. It will start at the end of May next year and may last until January 2011. The revenue from ticket sales will also be reduced by 20 million pounds. We may face a funding gap of 70 million pounds."

"It doesn't matter!"

Zhou Buqi waved his hand, not feeling much pressure.

Manchester United has a long-term cash flow of 100 million pounds on its account, and its finances are very healthy. There is no need to worry at all. The Manchester United management led by David Gill is too cautious, fearing that cash flow will be cut off, resulting in wage arrears and penalty points from the Premier League.

David Gill said meaningfully: "If Manchester United's business can make profits as soon as possible, instead of the headquarters constantly injecting funds, then the problem will not be serious. Manchester United's own hematopoietic ability can make up for this gap."

Zhou Buqi knew that he was passing the blame, and his expression was calm, "You can rest assured that Manchester United's business will definitely succeed!"
