China Entertainment: I became a capital tycoon

Chapter 657. Chairman Cao, do you want to become a chaebol?
"Glory of the King?"

When Lu Huateng saw the name of this new game, he felt it was very domineering.

He clearly remembered that Brother Cao had said many years ago that he wanted to become the strongest king of the Internet.

The king of the Internet world didn't do it himself, but the king of the gaming world did it.

"This is a good name!"

Lu Huateng excitedly opened the game settings. Although the battle mode settings are somewhat similar to LOL, it seems to be easier to get started, and it is estimated that it will attract many female players.

Moreover, the game characters are basically Chinese elements, which will make it more acceptable to domestic players.

However, after reading the general idea, he still said to Cao Yu with doubt: "Can this game really be popular for more than ten years?"

"At least ten years."

Cao Yu is naturally full of confidence in Honor of Kings.

"Okay, let's hold a meeting now to discuss it, and then start the project development!"

Lu Huateng immediately called together technical personnel and began to evaluate this project.

Penguin has a complete game development team. When everyone saw the design concept of this game, they all looked at Boss Cao with admiration.

The game setting is perfect, with absolutely no flaws, as if he had actually played the game.

No wonder the boss values ​​Mr. Cao so much. It’s not an exaggeration to say that this game alone is worth tens of billions.

On the same day, Penguin Entertainment established a studio specifically responsible for Honor of Kings, and plans to officially launch the game at the end of next year.

Lu Huateng also gave Cao Yu 30% of the profits generated by the game. Of course, this share was in addition to the dividends from shares.

"Brother, don't think it's too little."

Even so, Lu Huateng was still worried that Cao Yu would be dissatisfied.

"We are brothers, 30% is not less."

Cao Yu knew very well that in the future, King of Glory would have a profit of tens of billions every year, and this 30% of the profit could be earned without any effort.

However, Cao Yu is not satisfied with just making money from Chinese people. He said with a smile: "For this game, we will not only develop a Chinese version, but also English, Japanese, Korean and other versions. In the future, we will go abroad and let King of Glory go around the world!"

"Brother, I love you so much!"

Lu Huateng gave Cao Yu a hug in front of the employees.

Boss Cao owns the world's number one video website, a top La Liga football team, and is the second largest shareholder of Facebook, the world's largest social networking site.

With such an identity, wouldn’t it be easy to promote the overseas version of King of Glory?

If King of Glory has many players around the world, can WeChat also be promoted globally?
In this way, it is no longer a dream to make Penguin a global Internet empire.

The two wealthy men left the meeting room arm in arm, looking closer than brothers.

As for World of Warcraft, let the Americans play it by themselves.

After finishing the Penguin business, Cao Yu just returned to Yanjing when Wang Sicong came to him.

"Brother Cao, it's so hard to find you."

In the past two years, Wang Sicong has done a good job as Atletico Madrid's manager, but he feels that this is not the life he wants to live.

Before telling the purpose of looking for Cao Yu, he deliberately hinted that he wanted to recruit players for Atletico Madrid: "I heard from my father that you transferred billions of US dollars in the United States this time. Why don't we buy Ronaldo?"

The reason why Real Madrid is able to beat Atletico Madrid to win the championship this year is mainly because C is too outstanding. If they buy this player, no matter who leads Atletico Madrid to win the championship, there will be no problem.

Cao Yu raised his eyebrows: "Do you think Real Madrid will sell it?"

"It's hard."

Wang Sicong certainly felt that it was not easy, but he still said, "But you are so rich, you can buy it with money, right?"

"It's not worth it. Besides, our lineup is actually pretty good. We will definitely win the championship next year."

"Actually, I want to buy Cristiano Ronaldo and then stop being a football manager."

Seeing that Cao Yu, Cao's boss, seemed to have no interest in Ronaldo, Wang Sicong had to express his thoughts: "It's boring to stay in Europe. I want to return to China to develop. Foreign girls are not as good as those in China. Besides, live streaming is developing very fast now. I want to focus on live streaming and build a team at the same time."

"Are you attracted to those internet celebrities?"

"The one who understands me is Brother Cao."

"Get lost! You only know how to flirt with internet celebrities."

Cao Yu scolded the boy: "I originally wanted you to run the team for a few years and then come back to do live broadcasting or something, but you are so impatient."

"There's nothing I can do. Live streaming is developing too fast. If I enter the industry in two years, it will be too late."

In the past two years in Spain, Wang Sicong's biggest hobby, apart from managing the team, is watching live broadcasts, and he would give tips to his favorite anchors for tens of thousands of yuan each time.

He felt that if he got into this industry, he could not only save the money, but also date those beautiful internet celebrities.

Cao Yu said: "Live streaming is indeed developing very fast, but the industry is not formal yet, so it's meaningless for you to do it now."

Although live streaming has been popular since 2008, it is still in the exploratory stage. In addition, some online live streaming platforms are still skirting the rules and doing unhealthy things.

Two years later, the country will vigorously regulate the live broadcast business, and that will be the best time to enter the live broadcast industry.

Wang Sicong laughed and said, "Who would read the formal ones?"

Cao Yu couldn't help but scold: "Don't forget that you are a rich second generation, why are you acting like a loser?"

"Can't rich second-generations watch live broadcasts of beautiful women?"

Wang Sicong was not convinced: "You are a full man who doesn't know the hunger of a hungry man. You are surrounded by beautiful stars, and you won't let me see them? Anyway, I just want to return to China to develop. I have had enough of Europe."

"It's up to you. Come back whenever you want. If you run into any problems, don't blame me for not reminding you."

Seeing that Xiao Wang insisted on returning to China, Cao Yu stopped persuading him.

Anyway, this guy is known as the J Prosecutor of the entertainment industry. It doesn't seem to matter if he comes back and can beat the old master to death with random punches.

"Who will be the team manager then?"

"Give it to Fan Zhiyi."

"Then I will go back to hand over in the next two days."

Wang Sicong rubbed his hands excitedly and began to plan to do something big when he returned to China.

After getting rid of Wang Xiaomubiao, Cao Yu shook his head. He didn't know how many internet celebrities would be harmed by this guy.

“It’s not too late to launch the TikTok platform after the country regulates it, otherwise it will be hit when the country regulates the online environment.”

In fact, Cao Yu had already developed Douyin a long time ago, but it hasn’t been launched yet because the current online market is a bit chaotic and unregulated.

In addition, current live broadcasts are either singing or dancing, and he doesn’t think highly of the trivial things in current live broadcasts.

I picked up the documents on the table and found that the box office of "Wulin Waijia" has exceeded 200 million. The situation is not bad. It should not be a problem to get 700 to 800 million by the time the movie is released.

The first round of "The Legend of Zhen Huan" has been broadcast on Mango TV and received very good responses.

It is still being broadcast on other TV stations, including Mango TV. Although the ratings are not as good as the first round, they are not bad either, and still beat other dramas of the same period.

When the second round of this drama is almost over, the next one to take over will be "Zhu Xian".

Things are almost done here in China, and now we are just waiting for the official launch of "China Music Show" in August.

But before that, Boss Cao planned to go to Korea while he had nothing to do.

Lee Ji-eun’s new song “Go Down the Mountain” is probably almost done practicing, and it’s time to release Girls’ Generation’s “Send to the Bright Moon” and Seven Flowers’ second album.

For him, going to Korea now is almost like going home, and he can fly to Seoul on the same day.

Although the popularity of "Descendants of the Sun" was suppressed by "Joy of Life" and "The Legend of Zhen Huan" in China, the drama still achieved a maximum audience rating of 47% in South Korea, making it the most popular TV series of the year.

In addition, "The Moon Embracing the Stars" is the successor to "Descendants of the Sun" and its average viewership ratings are also around 28%.

At this time, "Joy of Life" has also been aired in Japan, and the ratings are also very good.

Now Koreans are very upset. Why can Chinese and Japanese watch such a good movie, but we can't?
Originally, given the arrogant nature of Koreans, they would definitely look down on Chinese TV dramas. But since Cao Yu is now the chairman of FNC and has permanent residency in South Korea, in their eyes, Cao Yu is also half Korean.

Therefore, during this period of time, the FNC website was filled with messages from people wanting to watch this movie.

Some people even said that they wanted to turn FNC Chairman Cao into a Korean. In response to this, Chinese and Korean netizens even started a war of words to snatch Cao Yu.

FNC Entertainment Seoul.

After finishing a day's practice, Yoona Lin left the company with Choi Sulli, planning to find a place to have a drink later.

Girls' Generation has already practiced the song "Ji Ming Yue" and will officially release it after the president arrives.

"Yoona, do you think the president is willing to stay in Seoul? There has been a lot of noise about this online lately."

Choi Sulli chatted with Yoona while walking.

Lin Yuner teased, "Sulli, how many times do you mention the president every day? You haven't done anything yet, but now all you can think about is him?"

Choi Sulli's cheeks were slightly red, and she explained embarrassedly: "No, I just hope that the president can stay in Seoul, which will be good for you."

"Don't use me as a shield. If you miss OPPA, just say it. There's nothing to be embarrassed about."

Since their last heart-to-heart talk in Japan, Yoona and Sulli have become better friends.

"I do want to meet the president."

Cui Xueli sighed: "I don't know when he will come again."

As he spoke, he couldn't help but look up at the sky, hoping that a plane in the sky would bring the handsome president here.

"Don't think about it. He has a music show in China. Maybe he will come after he's done with it."

In fact, Yoona also misses her man, but judging from the news, China's Feiyu Entertainment is currently organizing some kind of music show, so she must be very busy.

Choi Sulli also knew about this: "I don't know if he can do it."

"I hope it will be successful. Then we may be able to promote our songs in China."

Lin Yuner looked down at the time and suddenly said, "How about we not drink outside and drink while watching "The Moon Embracing the Sun" at home?"

"It's fine at your house. I can sleep with you at night."

Choi Sulli had no objection to this suggestion: "This movie is very well made, and Sooyeon's sister's acting is better than her sister."

The two drove back home. Lin Yuner opened the refrigerator and just wanted to get some wine, but found that her favorite sake was gone, so she had to go out again.

"I'm going to buy a drink."

"Then I'll take a shower first."

It is midsummer now, and Choi Sulli takes a shower before the TV series starts.

……

Cao Yu came to Seoul suddenly this time, and no one in FNC knew about it.

He got off the plane and saw that it was getting late. After thinking for a while, he went straight to where Yoona lived.

I opened the combination lock and found that the lights in the living room were on, but no one was there.

"Yooner?"

He called out, but no one answered: "Where did this girl go?"

As he was speaking, he heard the sound of water splashing in the bathroom.

"So you're taking a bath. It's just right for them to have a bath together."

Cao Yu took off his clothes and walked to the bathroom as if he was familiar with the place, saying, "Baby, let's take a shower together."

But when he pushed open the bathroom door, he found that there was someone under the shower, but from the back, it was not Yoona.

But this figure was also slender and had fair skin, which made her look particularly attractive under the water.

"Who is this?"

Although he didn't see her face, Cao Yu had already realized that this woman was definitely not Yoona, so he planned to leave first without being noticed by her.

At this time, the figure turned around and muttered, "Yun'er, why are you back so soon after you just went out?"

"Shirley?"

"President?"

When their eyes met, Cao Yu was stunned. How could it be Choi Sulli?
Choi Sulli was also surprised, and her pretty face instantly turned red to her ears.

Both of them were naked at the moment, and she never expected that she would be seen naked by the president in such a situation.

Fortunately, she did not scream like other girls, but covered her sensitive parts: "President, why are you here?"

Cao Yu came back to his senses, but as a normal person, he couldn't help but look at Choi Sulli.

The girl in front of him was as pretty as a flower, naked. The hot shower was on, and waves of warm water were pouring on her snow-white skin, which looked very beautiful with a rosy glow. Her hair was also wet and stuck to her skin, making her look even more seductive and attractive.

Cao Yu's eyes made Cui Xueli turn her head away shyly, and she called out "President" softly again.

"I came here to look for Yoona. I'm sorry."

Cao Yu apologized embarrassedly and was about to leave.

Choi Sulli suddenly remembered that the last time she was in Japan, her confession was rejected by the president.

Now that he has arrived suddenly, could it be that the previous prayers have worked?
If I miss this opportunity, I don’t know when I will have another good opportunity like this…

She turned around immediately and grabbed Cao Yu's hand as he was closing the door: "President, how about we take a shower together? I'll rub your back for you."

Cao Yu originally thought that Cui Xueli was very well-behaved, but now he discovered that this girl was actually very bold. She actually took the initiative to invite him to take a bath with her?
Looking at that charming figure, any man would be moved.

He paused, nodded and walked in: "Okay, I'll help you rub it first."

Coming under the shower, Cao Yu placed his hand on the smooth back and slid it gently.

Cui Xueli's body trembled. She had this feeling only in dreams.

She turned her head with blurry eyes and finally called out: "OPPA..."

"Shirley..."

Cao Yu agreed and pulled her, and with a cry of surprise, he held a wet body in his arms...

After selling a few bottles of wine, Yoona came home and found men’s clothes on the sofa.

"OPPA? Or someone else?"

She was stunned at first, and then she heard a familiar panting sound amid the sound of water dripping in the bathroom.

"Shirley finally got what she wanted, and I have a new sister..."

She opened a bottle of wine and drank a glass, then took off her clothes and went to the bathroom.

The next day, Cao Yu called FNC and asked for leave for Choi Sulli and Lim Yoona. It was not until the third day that the two girls came to the company together.

"Sulli, Yoona, where did you go yesterday? The album is about to be promoted, and you asked for leave?"

When captain Kim Taeyeon saw the two of them, she immediately came over to question them.

"I have some personal matters to attend to, so I have to ask for leave."

Of course, Yoona couldn't say that she had been living a ridiculous life with the chairman and Sulli all day yesterday.

Cui Xueli said openly: "We are with Chairman OPPA."

"Huh? Really?"

When the other girls heard this shocking news, they gathered around and asked, "Shirley, are you really with the president?"

"That can still be a lie."

Choi Sulli's face was full of pride and happiness, without any embarrassment at all.

"No wonder her face is so red, but the president is really something. When he comes, I will definitely ask him why he turned us Girls' Generation into fake girls!"

Kim Taeyeon, who was the most unhappy, blamed the chairman for making Girls' Generation impure.

Lin Yuner smiled and said, "Captain, the president can't come today. He was cleared away."

At this time, Cao Yu was having dinner with Li Jae-hyun in a hotel.

"Chairman Cao, CJ Entertainment wants to introduce Joy of Life. With our long-standing relationship, the price should be lower than that offered to Japan, right?"

When Lee Jae-hyun heard that Cao Yu had come to Seoul, he planned to introduce the popular TV series "Joy of Life" in Japan to South Korea.

"Of course it can be lower."

Cao Yu sold this play to Japan for 300,000 US dollars per episode. He thought about it and said with a smile: "I'll give you 280,000."

Li Jae-hyun laughed and said, "Haha, Chairman Cho is really just this low."

"I am joking. I can give it to you for free, but I want 40% of the revenue dividend."

"Xiba."

Of course Lee Jae-hyun was not happy. Two hundred and eighty thousand US dollars was the price for purchasing the copyright. From now on, the copyright in Korea would belong entirely to him.

As for the profit sharing, the copyright still belongs to Huaxia, and I still have to be responsible for dubbing and translation, as well as attracting investment, which is definitely not cost-effective.

He calculated and said, "How about two hundred and fifty thousand?"

"Two hundred and seventy thousand. It can't be any lower, otherwise Dongbao will have objections."

"Ok."

Lee Jae-hyun could only nod, then smiled and said, "Have you seen the movie "Eun-gyo" produced by our CJ Entertainment this year?"

"No."

Cao Yu had actually seen this movie, but it was before his rebirth. It was about a love affair between a young girl and a professor who were in a relationship of different ages.

The main thing is that this movie is the kind that is not allowed to be watched by people under the age of 18.

"I think it's good to have a look when I get a chance."

Li Zaixian said with a smile: "This movie has done very well at the box office. We plan to invest in an 18+ movie called "The Treacherous". The girl named Jin Zhiyuan from FNC is pretty good. I would like to invite her to play a role in this movie?"

"Forget it."

Cao Yu didn't want his artists to star in this kind of film and refused immediately.

"it's a pity."

In fact, Lee Jae-hyun has been coveting the actors under FNC Entertainment for a long time. Last time, he tried to get Park Hyo-min from T-ARA, but Cao Yu refused.

Unexpectedly, Cao Yu still refused to agree to this test.

He guessed that Cao Yu should regard all the female artists under FNC as his own private treasures.

However, as a chaebol, he was not short of women, so Lee Jae-hyun smiled and said, "Chairman Cho, how do you feel about being in Korea? Do you want to become a Korean citizen and become a new chaebol?"

Recently, there have been more and more calls from Korean netizens to bring Cao Yu to Korea. If I can convince him to join Korea, I might become a hero for Korea.

Boss Cao is so rich that bringing him in is like bringing in a mountain of gold.

“I don’t want to be a chaebol.”

Cao Yu certainly would not join South Korea. Although he lived comfortably here, he just liked to make money and pick up girls here.

"Ugh…"

Li Zaixian shook his head and finally advised sincerely: "I heard that you asked Girls' Generation to sing Chinese songs. If you are Chinese, this matter may have a bad impact."

Cao Yu said calmly: "Can they only sing in Japanese and not in Chinese?"

"Then you take a look at it. Consider the matter of joining. You should be aware of the status of chaebols in South Korea."

After saying this, Lee Jae-hyun started talking about the plan for "The Treacherous".

After dinner, Cao Yu was leaving the hotel, smiling in his heart: "I am not a chaebol myself, but I cultivate chaebols."

Now FNC has its own foundation and can produce a large number of beautiful stars.

In the future, we can also do live streaming in South Korea. Koreans are keen on live streaming, even crazier than China. Then, whether it is selling goods or something else, we can make a lot of money.

And aren’t I happier than the chaebol now?
