Chapter 1269: Winning The Polish Jackass At A Cabbage Price
Future Group acquired 50% of Take-Two's equity and completed its absolute control of Take-Two.
It has attracted widespread attention and heated discussion at home and abroad.
at the same time.
G Fat from Seattle made the final decision after thinking about it for a few days.
agreed!
He is willing to sell himself to Future Group.
It turns out.
Even the stubborn G Fat can't escape the law of true fragrance.
Three days later.
The news that Future Group controls Take-Two has not yet subsided.
The latest news has once again come out of the gaming world.
Another well-known game developer has been acquired by Future Group.
Gabe Newell held a media conference that day and announced that Valve Corporation would be merged into Future Group and become a subsidiary of Future Group.
Future Group's acquisition of V will be completed through investment.
With a financing amount of 770 million yuan, it won 78% of the equity of V.
As soon as the news came out.
America's side exploded.
[News: V Agency falls into the hands of Future Group! 】
[The New York Times: In just one week, Future Group acquired two well-known American game developers!]
[Fox News: America’s game industry has completely fallen into the corporate star of Dragon Country!]
[The Sun: EA will be the last bastion of the American game industry!]
A large number of American media organizations reported the news of Valve being acquired.
And the alarmist said that America's game industry has been controlled by the Future Group and has reached the most dangerous time.
The Future Group will lie on the player America and suck blood crazily.
Although the titles of these media organizations are very targeted.
But the game industry is not a high-tech enterprise after all, so America's official government did not take care of it.
the other side.
Lu Yi naturally saw the news reports released by America's news media.
In this regard, he disdained medical treatment.
After completing the acquisition of Valve, Lu Yi's trip to North America has basically come to an end.
And the results.
It also made him quite satisfied.
Two well-known game developers, Take-Two and V, have fallen into his hands, which will definitely bring the future group's game business to a higher level.
After settling on V Agency, Lu Yi flew directly to Europe without stopping in America.
His first stop in Europe was Gaul.
Because Ubisoft's headquarters is here.
Ubisoft, as a veteran game developer, produces games that are world-renowned and have many fans around the world.
For such a high-quality game developer, Lu Yi naturally wants to win it over.
Facing the acquisition invitation from Lu Yi, Ubisoft's head iron is even worse than G Fat.
No matter how Lu Yi tried to fool him, Ubisoft just refused to agree.
To this.
Lu Yi can only threaten.
Lu Yi directly used Vivendi as an example, saying that if Vivendi acquires Ubisoft's shares maliciously, Ubisoft will end up very miserable.
on the contrary.
If Ubisoft sells itself to Future Group, Lu Yi will not interfere in Ubisoft's operations. Ubisoft still has full autonomy. With the support of Future Group's resources, Ubisoft will develop better and become the largest game in Europe. The developer's position is unshakable.
However.
Faced with Lu Yi's "tell the facts and speak the truth", the person in charge of Ubisoft remained firm.
Instead, he mocked Lu Yi for thinking too much.
Vivendi’s hostile takeover of Ubisoft?
This is just a figment of Lu Yi's imagination, and it is impossible to happen in reality.
Faced with Ubisoft, which is unable to make progress, Lu Yi has no choice.
That being the case.
Just wait and see again in a few years.
Sometimes Ubisoft comes calling.
After being frustrated at Ubisoft, Lu Yi immediately flew from Gaul to Eastern Europe.
Because there is a young video game developer here——CD Projekt RED, nicknamed "Polish Stupid Donkey" by the people in the world.
The company started in 2002 with the establishment of a video game development studio in Bolanńdz.
It was the first time I made a game demo, but it was redeveloped because it didn't get approval from the publisher.
A new demo was released at E3 in 2004 and received favorable reviews.
The final game was not officially released until the fall of 2007.
Even now, CDProjektRED can only be regarded as a small workshop compared with those big-name third-party developers.
For CDProjektRED to really become famous, we have to wait until "The Witcher 2" is released next year.
As a cheater, Lu Yi is very aware of the future development of CDProjektRED.
This small workshop will soon usher in a rise.
Its "Witcher" series and "Cyberpunk 2077" are both masterpieces.
Among them, the huge success of the "Witcher" series has established the Polish Jackass' status as a top developer in the gaming industry.
10 years later.
CDProjektRED will completely surpass Ubisoft to become the largest game manufacturer in Europe.
Compared with Ubisoft, the acquisition of CD Projekt RED will be much smoother.
After all, it is a small workshop and is severely short of money.
CD Projekt RED was in financial difficulties because the first game demo it produced could not be released. Therefore, CD Projekt RED moved the studio to its headquarters in Warsaw.
Now faced with the olive branch from Future Group, Marcin Ivensky, the founder of CDProjektRED, immediately took it.
He knelt down on the spot to express his welcome to the sponsor's father.
With the capital investment from Future Group, CD Projekt RED will not have to face financial difficulties and can better complete the development of "The Witcher 2" (Zhao Wanghao).
and.
In the future, we can also use the resources in the hands of Future Group to attract traffic to our own games.
Such a good thing.
For CDProjektRED, which is short of money, there is no reason not to accept changes.
therefore.
The founding team of CDProjektRED decided on the spot to package themselves and sell them to Future Group at a price of 50 million meters.
Of course.
CDProjektRED also put forward conditions.
That is, the CDProjektRED team must be retained and can continue to make games. The Future Group cannot interfere with CDProjektRE.
Team operations.
Naturally, Lu Yi would not refuse this small request and immediately nodded in agreement.
after all.
The most valuable thing about CDProjektRED is this team. .
