Traversing the courtyard

Chapter 564 Autumn Rain Game Console
Fortunately, the grandpa and aunt lived downstairs. Weidong came out of Sophora's room in the morning and nothing happened. It was just that Sophora was teased by Xiao Dang in a low voice, and her shy little face was flushed, which was really cute.

Weidong had breakfast in the villa, and then he rushed to work contentedly, and there were still a lot of things to deal with.

First of all, I finished the work of Changjiang Real Estate. This simple matter was quickly approved by Wei Dong. The 6000 million shares were going to be put on the market, which alarmed Li Fuzhao, and he ran up to Wei Dong himself:
"Why did you approve all of this?"

Wei Dong smiled and said: "It's okay, I will buy these stocks later, and they won't flow to the market in a short time."

Weidong will not release it if he holds it. This is the original stock of Changjiang Real Estate, and it can be held for decades. No matter how profitable Weidong can make money, it is very good to buy shares at this time and let others make money for him. It's a good deal. After all, the market value of Changjiang Real Estate is only a few hundred million. Compared with the market value of later generations, buying it at this time is definitely the most cost-effective deal.

Only then did Li Fuzhao know that Wei Dong was planning this, he breathed a sigh of relief, and said with a smile: "You said it earlier, I was shocked, and the market can't fluctuate too much at this time."

"That is to say, these stocks have to be circulated in the market, and I bought them from irrelevant companies."

Of course, Weidong can't operate in his own name, lest people know that he has become a shareholder of Changjiang Real Estate. If Li Chaoren doesn't know, he can continue to absorb the company's shares in the future.

Li Fuzhao said: "Recently, there are some companies that want to increase or reduce their holdings. Do you want it?"

Now the stock market is in a downturn, so Li Fuzhao instructed to stick to some additional issuance and reduction of holdings. The most basic thing is not to operate directly through the secondary market, otherwise the stock price drop will drag down the stock index and cause panic.

It doesn't matter if it's the primary market, and it won't affect the volatility of the stock index.

Weidong didn't think of this before, and this is indeed a fast way to buy stocks, and it is more secretive than buying in the market.

"Alright, I'll send you the materials later. I'll see what company it is, and if I'm interested, I'll approve their application."

Li Fuzhao was very quick. When he returned home, he asked people to send all the application forms. Among the more than ten applications, there was Yihe's. Of course, Weidong passed it. Thinking about it, the Niubijian family only held the head office before. More than 57% of the shares, Weidong had to buy more than half of the shares, and later exchanged shares with Weidong, and now the stock in hand is as high as [-]%, the money for the increase is borrowed, and now it is necessary to reduce Part of the loan was returned.

Ordinarily, Li Fuzhao would give Yihe this face, but because the exchange was owned by Weidong, the application of Yihe Foreign Bank was blocked and was not approved.

Of course, Weidong applied for it, but this batch of shares only had 8% of the shares. Even if Weidong got it, Niu Bijian still held 49% of the shares. As long as he didn't reduce his holdings, Weidong still had no chance.

Other companies, Weidong, picked and picked, and basically passed them all. Only two companies were engaged in trading. Weidong was a little uncertain, so he didn't buy them.

In the end, the total amount was as high as 7 million yuan. It seems that this kind of acquisition is more convenient and efficient.

Mi Xiaozhou was recruited and said: "Send these to Mr. Li, and ask him to send me here for all those who reduce his holdings in the future. If there are good companies, we will eat them."

"Okay, that's right, our mainframe has finally been finalized, and the samples have already boarded the plane and will arrive tomorrow."

"Great, finally there is another blockbuster product, this one sells better than arcade machines."

Although the mainframe is cheap, only 199 US dollars, but the game card that comes with it can be sold for 9.9 US dollars, which seems to be a lot less than the arcade machine, but the sales volume is high, and many families will choose to buy one.

Mi Xiaozhou was a little puzzled and said: "Boss, why is it that the mainframes made by Atari are as high as 230 US dollars, and you all sell them for 199?"

Yes, this is the price for Atari’s mainframe to find Weidong as an OEM. Weidong gave a quotation of 230 US dollars after comprehensive consideration. The reason why it is so expensive is that there are as many as 17 chips of different specifications in the mainframe, and there is no other part. , If you find other companies to manufacture OEMs, it will cost close to 300 US dollars. Atari compared it and chose Xiangjiang's Yixin Technology Company.

As for Atari selling only 199 US dollars in the market, it is a low-price promotion. After all, this is a brand new product. At the beginning, it lost some money and wanted to open the market. The console is losing money, but the game card makes money. Ah, the production cost is less than 2 US dollars. Atari’s game cards retail as high as 14.9 US dollars. You can make money on this. If you buy a console, you need to buy more game cards. If you combine them together, you won’t lose money. Once the money is gone, there will be some profits.

Atari's console has been on sale for two months, and the market has gradually accepted the new idea of ​​the game console. It is said that Atari is preparing to increase the retail price of the game console to reap profits.

Weidong's console has just been developed in secret at this time, and it's not too late for a good meal. Weidong also plans to directly use the host's price of 199 US dollars, and retail the game card of 9.9 US dollars.

In this way, it competes with Atari for the mainframe market.

"This is their promotional method. Few people knew that there was a game console product before. Anyway, their game cards can make money, and they won't lose money."

"Oh, I see."

"Hurry up and send the materials, and those who pass will be bought for additional issuance in the future."

The airmail was received the next day, and Mi Xiaozhou delivered the package. After disassembly, there were two consoles, ten sets of chips, and of course many game cassettes.

These chips were all taped out on Intel's production line for small-scale trial production, and some of them were sent after testing.

Holding the streamlined red and white host, Wei Dong smiled and said, "Do you want to play?"

Mi Xiaozhou said happily: "Of course I want to, but there are only two of them, so you want to give me one to play with?"

"It's not impossible, go get me a cup of tea."

"It's the boss."

Mi Xiaozhou happily went out to make new tea for Weidong.

Weidong took advantage of this short time to put the game console, chip and game card into the space, and then copied several copies before taking out one.

When Mi Xiaozhou came in with hot tea, of course he wouldn't notice anything unusual. After putting it down, he smiled and said, "Boss, did I take one away?"

"Well, take all the game cards, but you can't stay up late to play games, and let Manager Ruan come over."

Before, I hated Qin Xia and Yan Jiedi for being addicted to games, but later I learned that each of them played for several hours at a time, and even reluctantly went to eat when they were hungry, so I understood Qin Xiayue's obsession.

Ruan Tao soon came over, and tried playing with Weidong for a while, saying: "Our machine is smoother than Atari's, and the gamepad is also easier to use, especially the invention of the cross button. These advantages Enough to give us a firm foothold in this market.”

Atari's game console has four buttons to control the direction. Weidong directly applied for a patent for the cross button of the later generations, and put it on the gamepad to use it. This will make it much smoother and more convenient to control the movement of characters.

Wei Dong licked his face and smiled: "Of course, it doesn't matter who invented it, as long as I want to do anything, there is nothing I can't do."

If other women would increase their admiration for Weidong, Ruan Tao already knew Weidong's little tricks. Those inventions such as signature pens and lighters are things of later generations. You can take it out as your own invention after thinking about it.

Ruan Tao also thought that Wei Dong himself invented it before, but after watching the short movie, she knew that Wei Dong was just an imitator, and said with a smile:

"Yes, you invented it all."

Wei Dong also didn't realize for a moment that Ruan Tao knew his details, so he said in a sarcastic way:

"You know how to tear down my platform, are you still laughing?"

Ruan Tao smiled and carried the sample away, leaving Wei Dong alone in the office.

Weidong sighed, took out a new game console from the space and plugged it into the TV to play Super Mario, not to mention, it was different than playing on a laptop, until Mi Xiaozhou came to ask Weidong to have lunch, Only then did I realize that I had spent half the morning playing.

A week later, the game consoles were produced and ready for sale. Weidong directly copied millions of game cartridges and filled a large warehouse, and handed over the rest to Ruan Tao.

Weidong also arranged to send a batch of consoles to friends in Xiangjiang, and soon the newspapers were full of reports of rich people playing games at home, which made Weidong's game consoles popular and quickly opened up sales.

Of course, Weidong's women are indispensable, and now no matter who's residence they can see playing games.

Atari protested within a few days, and Weidong directly dumped his own patent, and he didn't copy theirs. He had his own patented technology, and he didn't like Atari at all.

Now Atari is entangled, and intends to no longer commission production in Xiangjiang, but if it is replaced in the beautiful country, the production cost will directly increase to a level close to 300 US dollars, especially the delivery speed will be much slower. Wouldn't it be more of a loss if it was produced in a beautiful country?
The boss of Atari, Nolan Bushnell, is now entangled. Before the console was only sold for 199 US dollars, he wanted to promote it. Who would keep selling it at a loss? He just wanted to increase the price, and Xiangjiang also released his own game console in a blink of an eye. , All of a sudden, Atari was in a difficult situation, unable to carry out price increase sales.

Weidong ignored Atari's protests, he has patents and is justified everywhere. Although he is an OEM for Atari, he has his own technology, so why should he be afraid of him.

In the blink of an eye, the summer of 75 years has passed, the global economy is still tepid, Xiangjiang has not improved, and there are unemployed people everywhere.

Wei Dong looked at the report in front of him and was a little happy. Hutchison Company finally couldn't hold on anymore. Qi Dezun struggled for more than a year and still couldn't rescue Hutchison from last year's stock market crash. He is still in a state of loss. All of them have been mortgaged, and those who can borrow have also been borrowed, but the entire company is still on the verge of bankruptcy.

Ah Zhen asked: "Do you think there is still hope for Hutchison?"

Wei Dong closed the report and said: "After all, this is one of the four major foreign firms, and it also controls many companies and industries. There are more than [-] affiliated companies, and there are many properties and real estate under its banner. If all the debts are divested and those companies with serious losses are dissolved, Hutchison will still be a good company with high quality."

Ah Zhen said: "Ke Hutchison has a total foreign debt of more than 20 billion. The affiliated companies are intricate and complicated, and it is very difficult to rectify."

"No matter how difficult it is, it will be a matter after we get started. Right now, we are going to veto Qi Dezun's plan to let shareholders take money to inject into the company."

At present, Hutchison is no longer able to survive. Qi Dezun issued a resolution to all shareholders to hold a general meeting of shareholders, requiring all shareholders to provide 1.75 million Hong Kong dollars in cash in proportion to help the company overcome the current difficulties. When the resolution was made at the shareholders' meeting, Ah Zhen was called in to study the countermeasures.

Ah Zhen is rarely surprised to see that Weidong is still optimistic about Hutchison's future. From Ah Zhen's point of view, Hutchison has reached the point of nowhere. It may be a better choice to directly divide up Hutchison's assets in the name of creditors.

"You want me to veto the rights issue plan proposed by Qi Dezun?"

Wei Dongdao: "Of course, this 1.75 million can only solve the most recent debt dispute, so we can't let us pay for the 20 billion long-term debts at that time? How can there be such a reason in the world?"

Wei Dongse wanted to veto this rights issue plan, but he couldn't go out on his own, and he had to leave a chance for peace with Qi Dezun. This villain can only be handed over to A Zhen, and let A Zhen veto it on his own behalf. Go talk to Qi Dezun, maybe you will have some big gains by then.

Ah Zhen smiled and said, "This person asked me to do it, and then you will be a good person?"

"What you said makes me chill. Isn't it necessary to find a way to acquire Hutchison? I want to complete Hutchison and their holding company, not just a dismembered part of Hutchison."

"Okay, then I'll go for a walk and be a villain."

Weidong previously bought 5 points of shares from Flynn, and also bought 5 points of shares from Qi Dezun, plus a part of the scattered acquisitions, it is close to 5% of the shares, plus HSBC Bank Taipan Shen Porridge He had already talked with Weidong on the phone, and he also opposed Qi Dezun's plan. It was impossible for Qi Dezun to pass the 20 million rights issue plan at the shareholders meeting this time, so Weidong asked Ah Zhen to come forward and veto it.

Wei Dong said: "That's hard work, sister Azhen, I will treat you to eat mushrooms later in the evening."

"Bah, the dog can't spit out ivory, it's obviously Flammulina velutipes." Ah Zhen got up and ran.

"It's turned upside down, I won't show you how powerful it is."

A Zhen ran out of the office before she finished speaking, leaving Wei Dong speechless. However, Wei Dong severely punished A Zhen and A Hui at night, begging for mercy in the middle of the night before being let go.

The next day was the day when Hutchison held a general meeting of shareholders. Qi Dezun's last hope was vetoed by HSBC and Ah Zhen. If there is no cash injection of 1.75 million yuan into the company's account in the short term, the company will go bankrupt.
