Sprinkle coins every day

Chapter 423 Acquisition Suspicion, Zhang Shuo Wants to Spend Coins Again!
Friday, April 10.

Following the release of the new mobile game "Honkai 3" last month, in order to appease the players' emotions, Jade Bird Interactive Entertainment launched another mobile game masterpiece-"Royal War".

This is a strategic MOBA card game. The combat system belongs to the competition category. Both sides use their own cards to fight against their opponents.

Whoever knocks down the opponent's main tower first wins.

In the original time and space, once "Royal Clash" came out, it occupied the first place in the global mobile game revenue list for two consecutive months.At the craziest time, the turnover in a single month broke $2 million.

It is definitely another phenomenal mobile game that is popular all over the world.

Coupled with the strong player base accumulated in the previous game "Clash of Clans", anyone who has played "Clash of Clans" can easily get started with "Clash Royale", and will feel very cordial.

It's natural to be attracted.

Coupled with the golden signboard of Jade Bird Interactive Entertainment in this life, it can be popular in the circle with almost no need for publicity.

There is no doubt that with the launch of "Royal Clash", it will not only smash the rumors that Jade Bird Huyu is "exhausted" in one fell swoop, but also boost the overall profitability of Jade Bird Huyu in one fell swoop.

Revenue is expected to hit a new high!

Jade Bird Interactive Entertainment is also worthy of being the most stable and durable hematopoietic machine of the Germination Group.

It's bull beep! ! !

.........

Tenda Building.

On Friday again, according to the usual practice, the second master called Lu Jian and Yu Yu to the office for a meeting.

past month.

Tenda's internal management also changed. Lu Jian defeated Yu Yu and officially became the president of the group.

It is reported that.

Erye is even planning to step down as CEO of the group, and Lu Jian will also take over.

The reef fish failed miserably!

The root cause is that the two major business segments of the game and social business that Yu Yu is in charge of have been defeated again and again in the competition with the Germination Group, and so far, there is no sign of any revival.

Social is fine.

With the support of ICQ's background, it can be supported for another five to ten years no matter what.

But the game business is miserable. In the face of the completely unreasonable Jade Bird Interactive Entertainment, Tengda Games has suffered disastrous failures whether it is mobile games, client games, stand-alone games, competitive games, or game agency business.

There is no way to fight back.

The overall revenue of Tengda Games is not even one-fifth of that of Jade Bird Interactive Entertainment, and it is basically reduced to the same level as the online suppression game.

That's it.

They are still relying on the veterans of the three end games to support them.

Failed to create another glories in the field of mobile games, and missed Weixin, a super trump card of mobile social networking, Tenda gradually lost its luster in the era of mobile Internet.

This time there is really no dream.

Before, netizens would hate iron for being weak, but now they don't even bother to complain.

This is the deadliest.

Just like now, in the face of the "Royal Clash" turned out, both the fish and the second master have been completely numb, and they can't even think about competing with the blue bird for mutual entertainment.

What's worse is--

"Boss, at the end of this month, the three mobile games "Synthetic Big Watermelon", "Happy Xiaoxiaole" and "Candy Crush Legend" under the Jade Bird Interactive Entertainment that we represented three years ago will all expire."

"Jade Bird Interactive Entertainment has made it clear that it will not renew the contract with us."

The reed fish reported bitterly.

Although Tenda only obtained the overseas agency rights of these three games, and "Synthetic Watermelon" has long since ceased to be popular, it cannot hold back the continued popularity of "Candy Crush Saga" in overseas markets.

It is still the top three in terms of income in major overseas markets.

It can be said that the mobile game "Candy Crush Saga" alone has supported half of the overseas market of Tenda's games and created a lot of overseas profits for Tenda.

Unfortunately, the three-year period has come.

After losing these three mobile games, and "League of Legends" being strongly suppressed by "Dota 2", it is almost foreseeable that it will be difficult for Tenda Games to make any waves overseas.

Unless there are some explosive models that can be born.

This is obviously unrealistic, because Zhang Shuo "stolen" all the popular games in the original space-time.

Not even a chicken feather was left to Tengda.

From the perspective of the Germination Group, three years ago, "reluctantly" sold the overseas agency rights of these three mobile games to Tenda. Although it made Tenda a profit, it also supported the early development of the Germination Group.

After all, Germination is still making a lot of money!

When I think that it is the overseas agency fee paid by Tenda that has single-handedly cultivated such a competitor as the Germination Group, whether it is Yu Yu or the second master, it hurts my liver! ! !
Even more annoying.

Jade Bird Interactive Entertainment is still "turning their faces and denying people" and will not renew their contract with Tengda.

It's so cold! ! !

Of course, with the current relationship between the two companies, it is indeed not suitable for continued cooperation. Even with the thick skin of Yu Yu, he would not have the face to negotiate with Jade Bird Huyu for a contract renewal.

Can't hold back this face!

"Well, how is the contact with Miaomiao Bike?"

The second master was also expressionless. When we met, he didn't even mention the topic of "Clash Royale", and was directly concerned about the acquisition of Miaomiao bicycles.

This is related to whether Nomi Dianping can take the lead in this battle of sharing bicycles to burn money.

It even overwhelmed Ahri's comments.

"Yesterday, when we had the latest contact with Miaomiao Bike, the other party's attitude was obviously loose, but there is still a little difference in the purchase price."

The acquisition of Miaomiao Bike was led by Lu Jianzai.

"Oh?"

The second master was shocked, and then he showed doubts, and asked subconsciously: "Didn't Miaomiao's attitude towards bicycles be very tough before? Why did you suddenly figure it out?"

"I heard that the two founders of Miaomiao Bicycle met with Zhang Shuo alone the night before yesterday," Lu Jian said.

"so……"

Second Master had a weird expression on his face.

Since it was going to acquire Miaomiao Bike, Tenda naturally did due diligence on Miaomiao Bike before that, and it was easy to find out the relationship between Miaomiao Bike, Prodigal Fund and Jiawei Culture.

Including the relationship between founder Cai Miaomiao and Zhang Shuo.

Although the Prodigal Son Fund's reputation is not obvious, but with Tengda's supernatural power in the industry, he wanted to find out the roots of the Prodigal Son Fund, which was a matter of minutes, and quickly locked Zhang Shuo, the big boss behind the scenes.

As for Jiawei culture, Tengda is more familiar with it.

As a dark horse in China's film and television drama industry, Jiawei Culture, which releases at least two popular TV dramas every year, has long become a favorite in the eyes of the three major video websites.

Tengda expressed his intention to invest in Jiawei Culture many times, but was rejected all the time.

It can only be "slaughtered" by Jiawei culture every time.

As for the background of Jiawei's culture, it was no surprise that the Prodigal Son Fund was found.

Then he had a relationship with Zhang Shuo again.

The second master can even imagine who is behind the growth of Miaomiao Bicycle.

Invisibly, a little frustration will naturally arise.

"Look, Zhang Shuo cultivated such an excellent start-up company with just a few random calls, and it was even snatched up by giants such as Ari and Tengda."

The realm and pattern are not on the same order of magnitude at all.

How not to get frustrated?
"Zhang Shuo agreed to the acquisition of Miaomiao Bike. Is he not optimistic about the future of shared bicycles, or is he simply not optimistic about the future of Miaomiao Bike?" Er Ye held back his frustration and asked out his doubts.

For Zhang Shuo's every move, no matter how much he attaches importance to it, he can't take it too seriously.

There must be a deep meaning behind it.

"Uh, it should be the latter."

Lu Jian was obviously not confident, and subconsciously added: "Miaomiao Bike CEO Cai Miaomiao is only a sophomore, and the president Xu Jia has to take care of Jiawei's culture, and he doesn't understand the Internet."

"Such a combination is really hard to generate confidence."

As an "old man" who has worked in the Internet industry for more than ten years, Lu Jian understands the dangers of the Internet industry too well.

Take shared bicycles as an example.

Although giants such as Ahli Dianping and Nomi Dianping have failed, other entrepreneurs have flocked in. In just a few months, no less than a hundred bike-sharing start-up companies have been registered.

Everyone wants a piece of it.

In addition, there are also good and bad investment institutions. Those who do not have the resources of giants such as Scarlet Capital also choose to invest their funds in other start-up companies.

If a blind cat bumps into a dead mouse, maybe it will get it?
The Thousand Regiments War that took place two years ago is the best illustration of this situation.

Although Miaomiao Bicycle has the first-mover advantage, it may not be able to outperform other start-up companies over time. If it stumbles casually, it may be surpassed by latecomers.

This is a great test of the level of the founder team.

Obviously, both Cai Miaomiao and Xu Jia lacked a bit of enthusiasm.

It is precisely because of this that neither Nomi Dianping nor Ali Dianping, in the acquisition invitation for Miaomiao Bike, mentioned that the founder team of Miaomiao Bike should join together.

Obviously, Cai Miaomiao and Xu Jia are not very cold.

Lu Jian even suspected that Cai Miaomiao was simply a puppet pushed by Zhang Shuo, and the real decision maker behind it was probably Zhang Shuo himself.

But this cannot explain another question——

Since Zhang Shuo is the leader behind Miaomiao Bike, why did Zhang Shuo cultivate such a competitor for Qingcheng Group?
According to normal business logic, it is completely unnecessary!

"Is it possible to say that Zhang Shuo is verifying two paths at the same time, let Qingcheng Bike mainly play battery cars, let Miaomiao Bike mainly play bicycles, and have a horse race between them?" Erye's mind flashed.

This is very similar to the mechanism that Tenda usually hopes to adopt.

"If it's a horse racing mechanism, then Zhang Shuo agrees to the acquisition of Miaomiao Bike. Doesn't that mean that Zhang Shuo has come to the conclusion that in the field of shared bicycles, battery cars have more advantages than bicycles?"

The second master is still thinking crazy.

No wonder Second Master thinks too much, in fact, in the eyes of Second Master and other big bosses, Zhang Shuo is already an old fox.

cunning and cunning.

And if it is guessed correctly, then the problem will be big.

Don't say anything else.

Just the current subsidy war between Ari and Tengda will become a complete joke.

"Of course this possibility cannot be ruled out."

Lu Jian couldn't directly refute the boss's opinion, so he said carefully: "But I personally think that this possibility is not very big. The reason is also very simple. Since Zhang Shuo wants to race horses, why not engage in two activities within the Green Orange Group?" A team, do you have to make a whole family of Miaomiao bicycles?"

It doesn't sound good.

Zhang Shuo's move is a bit of a slap in the face.

"That's right."

Based on the second master's understanding of Zhang Shuo, Zhang Shuo is by no means a small-scale person.

Can't do it either.

"So, the birth of Miaomiao bicycle is very likely to be an accident?" The second master felt a little relieved.

"This should be."

Lu Jian nodded and explained: "I have also inquired from the side, and launching shared bicycles on university campuses should be an idea that the founder of Miaomiao Bicycles, Cai Miaomiao, suddenly had an idea."

"As Cai Miaomiao's cousin, Zhang Shuo just pushed him behind the scenes."

"The real purpose is not necessarily to make Miaomiao Bike into a successful company, but just to give family member Cai Miaomiao a platform to practice in advance."

"This can be seen from the fact that all of Cai Miaomiao's venture funds come from the prodigal son fund."

Lu Jian is still very meticulous in his work, and has obtained a lot of information on the investigation of Miaomiao Bicycle.Combined with these pieces of information, it deduced a lot of things, and then came to different conclusions and inferences from the second master.

"Nurture the next generation of the family?"

Second Master's eyes flickered slightly, as if he was touched by something.

With the continuous increase in the valuation of the Germination Group, Zhang Shuo's personal wealth has naturally increased. From the perspective of the second master, it is indeed necessary to cultivate successors for the family.

At this point, Zhang Shuo even went ahead of the second master.

And it seems to be doing pretty well.

To be able to develop Miaomiao Bike to the scale it is today, even if it is said that Zhang Shuo, the great god behind him, is guiding the maze, but it has to be admitted that Cai Miaomiao is indeed a good seed for running a business.

In order to cultivate Cai Miaomiao, it is really nothing to come up with a small goal.

Sprinkle water! ! !

Thinking of this, the second master became even more envious of Zhang Shuo. He nodded, accepting Lu Jian's deduction, "This can explain why Zhang Shuo agreed to the acquisition of Miaomiao Bike."

Since it is for Cai Miaomiao to practice, it is natural to accept it as soon as it is good, lest it will not be closed when the time comes.

"Then, the acquisition of Miaomiao Bicycle?" Lu Jian asked along the way.

"As long as there is not a big difference in valuation, we can give in a little bit, and we have to act fast. We must win Miaomiao Bike in one fell swoop before Ari Dianping."

The second master is also a very decisive person, once the doubts in his heart are cleared, he will act vigorously and resolutely.

"understand!"

With Er Ye's promise, Lu Jianjian was full of confidence.

Compared with Ali Dianping, one of the biggest advantages of Nomi Dianping is that the headquarters of Tenda and Miaomiao Bike are both located in Binhai City, which is close to the water.

Whether it is the contact of personnel from both sides or the collection of intelligence, we must take the lead.

This is why.

Qiandu will authorize Tenda to handle the acquisition of Miaomiao Bike.

.........

After Lu Jian and Yu Yu left, the second master looked tired and rubbed his forehead subconsciously.

Although Nomi Dianping seems to have successfully taken the lead in the acquisition of Miaomiao bicycles, but the second master is not happy at all.

The root cause, of course, lies in the Green Orange Group under the Germination Group.

In the two fields of food delivery and shared bicycles, Ahli Dianping and Nomi Dianping are fighting hard. Just in the subsidy area, the two sides have burned a total of no less than 5 billion funds.

But the Green Orange Group has been able to stand aloof and watch the fire from the other side.

It's really annoying.

Take the acquisition of Miaomiao Bike this time as an example. It is clear that Qingcheng Group has more connections with Miaomiao Bike, but they seem to be unmoved and let Ari and Tengda grab it.

No matter how you look at it, something is wrong.

Until now, the second master has not figured out how the Green Orange Group can maintain its market share without large-scale subsidies?
It's really evil!
The second master is still suspicious that there seems to be some conspiracy of Zhang Shuo hidden behind this bike-sharing battle.Especially after learning that Zhang Shuo agreed to the acquisition of Miaomiao Bike.

This feeling became stronger and stronger.

"Zhang Shuo, Zhang Shuo, what kind of big game are you playing?" The second master even had the urge to call Zhang Shuo to chat, but he could only give up after all.

If Zhang Shuo really had any plans, he would naturally not reveal anything on the phone.

It may even take the opportunity to release smoke bombs.

Zhang Shuo, in the eyes of the second master, has been covered with a veil of mystery.

You can't see through it at all.

.........

Of course Zhang Shuo didn't know that he already had such an image in Er Ye's heart.

It is true that he was wronged.

How can he have any big conspiracy, but he "sees through" the future prospects of shared bicycles, that is——

There is no prospect at all.

Not to mention Nomi Dianping, which started relatively late, even the mold group of Yuanshikong, except for the core business of food delivery, has never been successful in businesses such as shared bicycles and grocery shopping.

It's just burning money for nothing.

This has also led to the mildew group has been on the verge of loss, and the stock price has been diving again and again.

Until it was abandoned by investors such as Tengda!
The most fundamental difference is that Zhang Shuo's expectations for Qingcheng Group are not mixed with the ambitions of Ari and Tengda, so he can naturally take it calmly.

The pattern is different.

.........

Monday, May 10.

At about ten o'clock in the morning, Zhang Shuo accompanied Li Shilang and Tao Lao from the Ministry of Rites, who came from the capital, to visit and inspect the Eastern University of Technology under construction.

Although it is a private university, the Eastern University of Technology should also be included in the unified management of the Ministry of Rites.

Therefore, process assessment is necessary.

As a private university positioned to build a world-class standard, the construction of Eastern University of Technology has been on the right track, and busy construction sites can be seen everywhere.

Among the priority construction projects is the Chunmiao Library donated by the Chunmiao Foundation.

Others include the power rocket laboratory, satellite laboratory, artificial intelligence laboratory, intelligent driving laboratory, etc., which are jointly promoted by the Germination Group and the Eastern University of Technology.

Some of the completed laboratories even have researchers settled in.

They are also the first batch of teachers hired by Eastern University of Technology from all over the world. When there is no teaching task, they mainly participate in or host scientific research projects.

In itself, the Eastern University of Technology will also be a research-oriented university.

Therefore, there are many laboratories.

Even a giant like Tsingbei University, if they see the research plan and research budget initially drawn up by the Eastern University of Technology, they will probably be too greedy.

"The construction speed is very fast."

After walking around inside and out, and listening to the special report of the preparatory group of the Eastern University of Technology, Li Shilang was obviously very satisfied with the construction progress of the Eastern University of Technology.

"Actually it's fine."

In China, which is known as an infrastructure madman, as long as the funds are in place, the construction of the project will not be a problem at all.

Especially in a developed city like Binhai City.

In addition, although the construction area of ​​the Eastern University of Technology is very large, and the number of individual buildings is also very large, most of them are multi-storey buildings with less than six floors.

The only high level is the teaching community.

Therefore, except for super buildings such as gymnasiums and art galleries, the construction difficulty of other buildings is very low. For construction giants like Zhongjian Third Bureau, it is even easier to handle.

It is naturally fast to build!

When it comes to Zhongjian Third Bureau, it can be said that it is the most intimate partner of Sprout in the field of construction, and has undertaken less than half of the construction projects in the Sprout Industrial Park.

So that every year and festivals, Zhang Shuo must be sent warm greetings.

After having a working meal at noon, Zhang Shuo held another banquet alone that night, and personally entertained Li Shilang, Tao Lao and his party, as a kindness of the landlord.

Because of the small number of people, it happened to talk about some relatively private topics.

"Mr. Tao, the Chunmiao Fund wants to step up its support for China's basic science research. Do you have any good suggestions?" Zhang Shuo humbly asked for advice.

mentioned before.

For the research of basic disciplines in China, the Spring Sprout Fund was previously limited to the establishment of the Spring Sprout Scholarship, the Fertile Soil Award, the Young Sprout Award, and funding for the construction of middle school infrastructure across the country.

Others include donating books, funding Yanhuang Library, smart classroom projects, etc.

Then there is the routine donation to the Eastern University of Technology.

There are many projects, but when all these projects are added together, the average annual cost is about 2 billion.

For today's rich and powerful Germination Group, it is really nothing.

Zhang Shuo, who has not forgotten his original intention, is ready to increase his support in this area.

But how to support it specifically, and how to ensure that the funds provided by the Spring Sprout Fund can be spent in the right place and in the field where it should be spent is a university question.

Zhang Shuo didn't understand.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, I asked Mr. Tao, Li Shilang and others for advice.

"Chunmiao Fund, how much do you plan to increase?" Tao Lao really became interested.

Li Shilang over there also looked over curiously.

"How about supporting another 10 billion every year?" Zhang Shuo didn't dare to procrastinate.

"cough…"

Tao Lao choked on the tea, and Li Shilang's eyes widened.

"Absolutely enough!"

Tao Lao, who had recovered his calm, looked at Zhang Shuo, wanting to be more kind and satisfied, but looking at Zhang Shuo a little uncomfortable.

I don't know.

What does the tens of billions of research and development funds each year mean for the development of basic disciplines in China.

Definitely a blockbuster.

"With such a sum of money, it can be used to fund major scientific research projects in some basic disciplines, such as particle colliders, sky eyes and the like."

Old Tao couldn't hide his excitement.

"Then this matter has been decided verbally. I am an amateur and I don't understand how to operate. I have to rely on Mr. Tao and Li Shilang to guide you. Chunmiao Fund only pays for it."

Zhang Shuo is also a chicken thief. He took the opportunity to bond with Tao Lao, and wanted to use Tao Lao's prestige as a scientist in China to ensure that the funds donated by the Chunmiao Fund could be used in proper places.

As for bringing up Li Shilang, everyone would naturally carry the sedan chair.

Not to mention.

Which heavyweight scientific research project would not be able to do without the support of the Ministry of Rites?
"Okay, with my old bones, I can endure it a little longer." Elder Tao didn't delay this time, and readily agreed.

"The Ministry of Rites will also fully support it."

Li Shilang was even more excited, and regarded Zhang Shuo as his lucky star.
