"Can you really kill everyone within a hundred miles when you unsheathe your sword?" After coming out of the club, Boss Jia looked at his apprentice with a curious and complicated expression and asked.
"If Master wants to, I can kill everyone within a thousand miles in an instant!" Gu Fan replied calmly. From his tone, it was as if killing people was as easy as killing ants.
"Cough … I am not that cruel!" Boss Jia coughed a few times.
"Actually, I wouldn't do it even if Master asked me to. My father spent a lot of effort to protect the forty million people in Yuzhang City. How could I just kill the people that I've spent my entire life protecting?" Gu Fan sighed.
"Oh, then your father is really awesome!" Boss Jia grinned. There are 40 million people in Yuzhang City, and they were protected by a man. How come he did not know about this? Was he too ignorant?
Boss Jia took a closer look at Gu Fan. He felt that this guy was probably still a teenager with an unparalleled talent in golf.
"Why don't you stop drawing comics and go play golf instead?" Boss Jia smacked his lips and said.
"No. I want to draw manga!" Gu Fan was determined. Boss Jia shrugged and returned to the company.
The moment Boss Jia returned to the company, he ordered Daqian Entertainment Group to place an order for 10 million RMB decoding chips from Sony.
It was not the total order of 10 million. It was the total order of 10 million. Boss Jia wanted to buy 10 million decoding chips from Sony.
This was only one of the orders. Boss Jia also ordered Daqian Entertainment Group to place an order for 10 million decoding chips from Toshiba.
"Chairman, 20 million decoding chips will cost 1 trillion Yen. That's equivalent to 40 billion RMB. Where are we going to get the money to buy so many chips?" The entire Daqian Entertainment Group was shocked when they saw Boss Jia's order. Many people called Boss Jia to check if Boss Jia was crazy.
"It's fine. Do as I say. I only want to see if Sony is crazy!" Boss Jia said.
Soon, Nobuyuki Idei received this order. 10 million decoder chips, and based on the price of 50,000 yen per chip, the total order was 500 billion yen. Sony could earn at least 450 billion yen from this order. When Nobuyuki Idei saw this amount of profits, he was trembling in fear. He had the thought of giving up on Sony's original plan to sell VCD players and not do anything stupid.
But Nobuhiko Ide was not a fool. He soon realized that no company would do such a thing. Daqian Entertainment Group does not have 500 billion Yen to pay for this order.
Therefore, Nobuyuki Ide began to read the entire order carefully. He found out that this order was actually an order with a total time limit of 10 years. This meant that Da Qian would order 10 million VCD decoding chips gradually within 10 years instead of ordering them all at once.
Of course, if he were to pay, he would pay each order separately, not all 500 billion yen at once.
This cunning Hua Xia Entertainment Group had found out about Sony's plan!
Nobuhiko Ide was deep in thought. He soon understood Boss Jia's intention.
Boss Jia was using this order to tell Sony and Toshiba that Jia Yapeng knew about Sony's intention. This order was a sign of Daqian Entertainment Group's sincerity and a bargaining chip to bribe Sony.
As long as Sony gave up on entering the VCD market and continued to supply Daqian Entertainment Group with decoding chips, then Daqian Entertainment Group will give Sony and Toshiba 10 million VCD decoding chips within the next 10 years.
Sony does not need to produce complicated VCD players and do not need to expand the market. Sony only needs to supply Daqian Entertainment Group with decoding chips and they will make a huge profit. This was equivalent to Sony's annual profits. Even a fool could see that this was a good deal.
"This Hua Xia Entertainment Group is really smart. He is fast and ruthless. Also, he is willing to invest. Even I am tempted!" Nobuhiko Ide looked at the order in his hands and thought for a while. He then shook his head and smiled bitterly.
If Sony accepted this order, then Sony will make a lot of money. But Sony's future path to entertainment will be blocked.
Most importantly, although this order was huge, the content of the order was very general. It was only an order of 10 million VCD decoding chips within 10 years. But the price stated in the order was the current market price. That means Sony will have the priority to sell the chips at the same price in the market.
In the future, if someone were to offer a cheaper VCD decoding chip, then Daqian Entertainment Group will immediately switch to another company. After all, Sony was offering a higher price than them!
Although Nobuhiko Ide was conceited, he did not believe that Sony could monopolize the VCD market for 10 years. It would not even take 10 years. At most, it would only take 1 to 2 years. As long as the United States and Europe saw the profits from VCD decoding chips, they will surely enter the VCD market. At that time, this deal would be a waste of paper to Sony and Toshiba, and Daqian Entertainment Group will not need to worry about anyone choking them.
But everyone was greedy. Faced with an order worth 500 billion Yen, who would not be blinded by greed? They could not see the dangers and traps in this deal!
This Jia Yapeng was indeed an extremely powerful person. He was able to manipulate the desires of the people. It was no wonder that he was able to develop the Great Thousand World to such a powerful state in just a few years.
"It's a pity that you met me, Nobuhiko Ide!" Nobuhiko Ide raised his head proudly and threw the order in his hands aside. He then requested for another board meeting.
At the board meeting, many of the directors were moved by this order. They felt that selling the VCD decoding chips was a good deal. At the same time, it was a profitable deal.
But during the meeting, Nobuhiko Ide told the directors about Jia Yapeng Entertainment Group's plans. He told the directors that this was only Daqian Entertainment Group's plan. The Daqian Entertainment Group's order would only last for 1 to 2 years. When other brands of VCD decoding chips appeared in the market, Sony would have to lower the price of the VCD chip. If that happened, Sony would lose the chance to dominate the VCD market forever.
Nobuyuki Idei's words won the applause of the directors present. The directors were very emotional that they had such a discerning and wise director.
In the end, under Nobuhiko Ide's persuasion, the board of directors issued a notice to Daqian Entertainment Group. They stated that if Sony wanted to order 10 million VCD decoding chips, they would have to increase the price to 200,000 Yen per chip. At the same time, Sony had to guarantee that they would buy the chips at the same price for the next 10 years. If not, they would have to pay 100 billion USD.
After that, Sony and Toshiba increased the price of the VCD decoding chips to 200,000 Yen per chip.
Obviously, this order was a failure.
Daqian Entertainment Group did not reply to Sony. At the same time, they did not place any more orders for VCD decoding chips.
At the same time, Sony announced that they will start manufacturing VCD players. At the same time, they will set up a new VCD production line in China. After this announcement, Sony's share prices shot up. In just one afternoon, Sony's market value increased by 470 million USD. The stock market was indeed the most mysterious place in the world!
