It is worth mentioning that Warner Bros. and MGM were the first to initiate the acquisition invitation, but they were suspicious and felt that there was no treasure found inside, so they half-spoken and wanted to refuse.

Huasheng Group is also an arrogant person. You just swear by it. Then, Warner Brothers and MGM were anxious and finally begged Huasheng to accept this mess or seek mortal enemies. I am afraid that only the parties involved can know how frustrated it is, but this is business competition.

Originally, Huasheng Technology didn't want it, but he took a fancy to the phenomenal IPs such as the DC series Batman and Superman under Warner, and then "barely" took over Warner's plate.

When the news of the acquisition was confirmed, the media also reported it heavily many times, especially the Western media, who called the Chinese people occupying Hollywood, and the words and lines in the foreign media's articles were reported with a sad tone. For this reason, CNN also produced an interesting short video.

In the video, there is a well-known sign "HOLLYWOOD" standing on a small hill. It was then hit and collapsed by a huge peanut falling from the sky. Instead, it was replaced by a sign "PEANUTNET" again.

No matter how the media attracts attention, this three-month acquisition ended perfectly, and the packaging of Hollywood by Washing Technology has also achieved fruitful results. Since then, the well-known "Star Wars Series IP", "Marvel Series Superhero IP", "DC Series Superhero IP", "Avatar Series", "Transformers" series, "Pirates of the Caribbean Series", "Hunger Games" series, "Harry Potter" series, "Hobite" series, "Lord of the Rings" series and other well-known film and television IPs have become the things of Peanut Network.

If it were the case before, more than 30 billion US dollars would be like buying these, which would be a fool, but now all these IPs are sold at a low price, and Huasheng Technology obviously made a fortune because in the near future, a virtual plane platform called "Fantasy Dream" will bring these IPs back to life.

At that time, companies that sold these IPs at a low price were regretful.

Of course this is a later story.

As Huasheng Technology made such an incredible comeback, the outside world was speculating about its purpose. Following closely behind, CSO, the chief strategic officer of Huasheng Group, personally led the team to reach out to the game field, and led the acquisition team to launch mergers and acquisition invitations to many world-class game developers including R Star, who has developed "GTA5", World of Warcraft, Starcraft, Activision Blizzard, who has produced "Call of Duty", Ubisoft, which has produced the "Assassin's Creed" series.

At the same time, Peanut.com has begun to recruit many professional positions in the game fields, including game architects, etc. on a large scale.

The whole world was shocked. Huasheng Group was really not playing according to the routine. Wall Street analysts lost all their hair and failed to analyze reliable conclusions.

Boss Li, where are you going to play and what are you going to make a fuss?

Why is your high-tech, heavy asset giant suddenly causing trouble in the field of gaming and entertainment?

As soon as this happened, the global game industry ushered in a huge shock. Such a giant suddenly reached out and caught all game developers off guard. Their methods were super simple and crude, and it was obvious that you had to do whatever you wanted if you had money.

How rich is Huasheng now?

It doesn’t mean profits, nothing else, and more so, it’s a bit scary to say that Huasheng Group’s current cash reserves have exceeded US$370 billion in cash reserves.

As soon as the news came out, the entire game industry became uneasy. Huasheng Technology's move really scared many industry insiders. They just packaged Hollywood. Is it possible that they have to package the global game industry?

Not to mention, in theory, Huasheng Group has the ability to continue to eat.

For a while, major game developers, especially Ubisoft and Blizzard, were even more panicked.

There is a reason for this.

Because these two famous game developers have been maliciously acquired and hurt by capital, that is, the notorious "Vivendi" in the game industry. The history of this company can be traced back to Napoleon III. The reason why Vivendi is notorious in the game industry is because he acquired a game developer. This company is basically the end, because after Vivendi's acquisition, it is not for the company to grow healthily, but to squeeze out the value as quickly as possible, and then continue to find the next target, and repeat this.

The early Blizzard was acquired by Vivendi, and the result was also very miserable, which directly led to a partial break in the company. The North Blizzard, the developer of the game "Diablo".

Overall, Blizzard was relatively lucky. In the end, it got up and completed the "redemption", repurchased the stocks controlled by Vivendi and regained autonomy.

But most game developers are not as lucky as Blizzard. Whoever Vivandi acquires is GG. A few years ago, Vivandi extends his claws to Ubisoft, which sells "BUG". If it weren't for finding Penguin's father to block Vivandi, Ubisoft would have been tortured.

Although Vivendi is notorious for gaming consoles, it makes developers shudder, but Vivendi's size and Penguin Empire with a market value of 500 billion are no longer on the same level, and compared with Huasheng Group, it is even less on the same level.

So when Huasheng Group extended its capital to the industry, global game developers were panicking, as if they were facing a big enemy.

The ones who play high-tech in Huasheng Group are all heavy-asset technology giants, without any gaming genes. When you suddenly play like this, this is definitely not good news. The first idea of ​​game developers is to reward Huasheng as the next label of Vivendi.

If Vivendi is only notorious, then a super giant like Huasheng Technology will enter the market, which is simply a Satan-level existence and is definitely a disaster in the global gaming industry.

Game developers are now panicking!

Faced with the developer whose strength is so strong that he doesn't even want to resist, he can't sleep or eat every moment as the news comes out.

...

Anaheim, California, USA.

This time point is holding this year's Blizzard Carnival. Anaheim has gathered thousands of Blizzard game fans, and it is now a lively scene.

However, at this critical moment, Mike Mohan, one of the founders of Blizzard, and currently CEO of the company, canceled the attendance of the carnival and was receiving a group of "uninvited guests" in a VIP room inside the company, which was Hu Lin, chief strategy officer of Huasheng Technology, and the acquisition team members he brought.

For Blizzard, Hu Lin and the others are "uninvited guests". Now the entire game industry is in panic, especially those who are named by Huasheng Technology one by one, who have the intention to acquire the company, and everyone wants to die.

Faced with a super giant like Huasheng Group, if the other party wants to initiate a malicious acquisition, you will have no way to deal with the other party and you can kill you with money.

Obviously, Blizzard is also on the list of key acquisitions of Huasheng Group, and is even sure to win.

In the VIP reception room, Huasheng CSO Hu Lin smiled and said to Mike in fluent English: "Mr. Mike, you must have known the visit to your company, so I will just say it bluntly. Huasheng Group is very optimistic about your company, and the future business of your company and our group company will be of great help. Our company decided to initiate a merger and acquisition invitation to you at a premium of 35% of the existing stock price of your company."

Blizzard's current market value is US$56 billion, and a 35% premium is equivalent to US$75.6 billion.

Mike looked at the Chinese in front of him and sighed in his heart. Judging from the situation, the other party was determined to win. Blizzard had no ability to fight against a giant like Huasheng. It took more than 20 years to complete the redemption from Vivendi. He had just escaped from the Dragon Pond. Could it be that he would jump into the tiger's den again?
