Allen was not surprised that Huanyu Games would be listed.
It was normal for Huanyu Technologies to be short of money as they had been suppressed by Microsoft.
It was a good idea to release Microsoft's pressure by getting listed.
However …
When Allen saw the profits of Huanyu Games in the third quarter, he could not stay calm anymore.
Five billion.
This was the profit of Huanyu Games in the third quarter.
If the first to third quarters were added together, it would be 15 billion.
Allen almost thought that this profit was fake, but after looking at it carefully, it was not fake. It was real.
"Oh my god …"
Allen was excited.
They knew that Huanyu Games was profitable, but they did not expect it to be so profitable.
If there were no accidents, it would be 20 billion in profit if the fourth quarter was included.
20 billion …
What did this mean?
Almost three billion in profit.
Let alone Blizzard, even some of the internet giants couldn't compare to this kind of profit.
"Mike, I have an idea."
Excited, Alan called Mike again.
"What idea?"
"We don't need them to represent us. We can operate it ourselves."
"Operate it ourselves?"
Mike was surprised. "Allen, although we have proposed this idea before, it is not the best plan."
"I know. Although finding a local agent can save us a lot of trouble, Mike, do you know how much profit Huanyu Games made this year? "
"How much?"
"15 billion RMB. The year is not over yet. If we include the profit for the year, it is estimated to be 20 billion RMB, which is about 3 billion USD. "
Like Allen, Mike was also shocked by the profit of Huanyu Games.
"Allen, is this figure real?"
"It should not be a big problem. Recently, Huanyu Technologies in China released the news that Huanyu Games will be listed. Some media exposed the financial report of Huanyu Games."
"Okay, I will ask the finance department to check it."
After putting down the phone, Mike called the CFO of Blizzard over.
They were not experts in finance, but they had people in Blizzard who knew about finance.
After some research, Blizzard's CFO said, "Mr. Mike, there isn't much of a problem with this financial situation. However, there might be some water in the profits. Here and here, some of the profits were included in the profits of the year in advance. Of course, this was not impossible. What if they were to use the most realistic data?
Huanyu Games' profit for the first three quarters of this year was about 13 billion RMB?
It's not 15 billion yuan. "
A professional was a professional. Blizzard's CFO quickly discovered that there was a problem with the financial data.
However …
Even if there was a problem?
Mike was still extremely excited.
Although 13 billion RMB was 2 billion less than 15 billion RMB?
However, this was also an extremely attractive profit.
Immediately, Mike called for a meeting with the Blizzard executives.
Did the meeting reach a unanimous decision?
If they didn't find an agent in China, they would do it themselves.
There was such a huge profit?
Why did he have to give it to others?
My research and development capabilities are very strong?
Their operating standards were not necessarily worse than others.
Moreover, China was such a huge market. Once his operation was successful, not only would Heroes of the Storm make money, but all the games that Blizzard launched in the future would be a huge source of profit. Moreover?
The China market was far from being fully explored. Think about the population of more than a billion people in China.
When the time came, if everyone was online, their country would be equivalent to a European market.
"Mike, have you decided?"
Receiving another call from Mike, Allen scratched his fist.
"No, it's not me who decided?
This is the company's unanimous decision. "
"That's great."
Allen shouted.
"Allen, don't get excited. Although we don't need an agent anymore, right?
After all, we're not very familiar with the China market. All the future business, Allen?
You have to hurry up on the China side. "
"Don't worry, Mike?
We'll definitely conquer the China market. "
A wonderful feeling swept over him.
Confirmed by the headquarters?
Allen gently opened the window.
Looking at the skyscrapers that appeared in front of him.
He knew?
This was a place filled with gold.
…
"Mr. Ding, I think we don't have to talk anymore?"
"Mr. Allen, do you have any misunderstanding about NetEase?"
"No."
"Mr. Allen, actually, we can consider your 70: 30 split."
"No need."
"Mr. Allen …"
NetEase Ding Yingfeng was dumbfounded.
He didn't expect that although the negotiations were at a stalemate, there was still room for discussion.
But early this morning, Allen ended the negotiations with them.
…
"Mr. Allen, I believe you know that we, Cities 9, are very sincere."
"We can see that."
"As for the agent, we can talk about it again."
"I don't think it's necessary."
"80: 20, you get 80, we get 20."
"Mr. Zhu, I'm sorry, but I don't think it's necessary to talk about 80: 20."
"Do you want 90: 1?"
Zhu Jun couldn't believe it.
But Allen didn't explain too much to them.
In the end.
Allen replied to Shengda.
"Boss Chen, it's really not about the split."
"Mr. Allen, you can ask for anything."
"Boss Chen, I don't think it's necessary for us to cooperate anymore."
"91: 1."
Shengda's Vice President Chen Danian said 91: 1.
Of course.
This wasn't because Shengda was willing to accept 91: 1.
He just said this to test Blizzard's reaction.
Because …
As far as he knew, Blizzard rejected NetEase and Cities 9 this year.
Cities 9 even offered 92: 2, but Blizzard still didn't agree.
At this point, Chen Danian basically knew that it was impossible to cooperate with Blizzard.
As a well-known domestic game company, if they accepted a 91: 1 partnership, they would be the laughing stock of the game industry.
That being said, Chen Danian really wanted to know what Blizzard wanted.
Unfortunately …
Allen didn't tell Chen Danian the answer.
The final result …
Like NetEase and Cities 9, Blizzard ended the negotiations with Shengda.
"Mr. Ding, what's the situation with Blizzard?"
"I want to know too."
"Mr. Zhu, Blizzard isn't thinking of giving the agent to Huanyu Technologies, right?"
"Impossible. If they give the agent to Huanyu Technologies, Huanyu Technologies will definitely freeze Heroes of the Storm. "
"What else can they do?"
Facing Blizzard's abnormal reaction, NetEase, Cities 9, and Shengda sat together and exchanged information.
They really didn't understand. What was Blizzard trying to do?
"Could it be that Blizzard wants to …"
At this time, Zhu Jun suddenly thought of something and said.
"Want to what?"
Chen Danian was stunned and seemed to have thought of something.
"Could it be that they want to operate it themselves?"
Ding Yingfeng couldn't believe it and said softly.
But after saying that, the three of them understood from each other's eyes.
Yes.
Blizzard rejected NetEase, Cities 9, and Shengda … Could there be a better agent than them?
Since there wasn't.
Then what was Blizzard trying to do?
Didn't they want to operate it themselves?
But …
If Blizzard were to operate it themselves, the three of them couldn't help but gasp. "Blizzard, you're courting death!!!"
