Rebirth: Japanese investor

   Chapter 3 Shares

   The two chatted speculatively, and the more they talked, the closer they got, which caused Jin Zechen to not only have a feeling of seeing each other late, but also sincerely admire Masayoshi Kishimoto.

   When Jin Zechen didn't get in touch with the man in front of him, he already felt that he had a vision for the development of online games. However, what Kishimoto had instilled in him was that this way of playing could change the world in the future.

  The reason why Masayoshi Kishimoto is able to impress the other party and even listen to the teacher's lectures like a primary school student is usually because he has more than 20 years of understanding, feelings and experiences of the development trend of online games.

   These things don't feel much to ordinary people, but they can have a strong impact on Jin Zechen.

   The other party has never even thought about it, but it is not science fiction. After all, it is a possibility that exists under the premise of current computer network technology.

   When Jin Zechen met such a like-minded person, he was naturally very happy. Not only did he raise money, but he also developed a huge feeling with the other party that he wanted to use online games to change the world.

  Jin Zechen said bluntly: "I agree with your investment. How many shares do you plan to ask for?"

  Kishimoto Masayoshi unhurriedly raised his left arm, stretched out four fingers and said in front of the opponent: "40%."

  Jin Zechen was immediately stunned. After all, he never expected that the ratio that the other party wanted would be so huge.

   In addition to being surprised, he also began to worry that if he agreed, the operation and management of his company would also be restricted by the other party in the future.

  Kishimoto Masayoshi understood the happy and sad expression on his face. He smiled lightly and said, "I know what you are worried about. I can tell you responsibly that these worries of yours are completely unnecessary.

   Even if I acquire 40% of your company's shares, I will not interfere or interfere with the daily operation and management of the company. Not only that, but I don't want any one-vote veto.

   Furthermore, even if I become a major shareholder, you still have more than 51% of the company's decision-making power. To put it bluntly, I just wait for the annual profit dividend. As for the rest, it's up to you. "

  Jin Zechen was even more surprised. Although the other party requested a high share of the shares, it did not require actual company control, which meant that his company could continue to advance and develop according to his personal business philosophy.

   Such favorable conditions are really attractive. What he is most afraid of is meeting a rich man who doesn't understand anything, but the other party has all kinds of so-called future development plans that are completely unrealistic.

  Jin Zechen's whole body began to tremble with excitement: "Aren't you kidding me?"

  Kishimoto Masayoshi knew that he had to be very serious at this time to be convincing: "If you don't believe it, we can sign the contract immediately. The contents of the contract are written with the terms I just told you."

  Jin Zechen believed him. After all, his company was about to go bankrupt due to lack of funds, so what else could be deceived? It's just that, in my heart, I can't understand why the other party would offer such generous conditions to me?

   When Jin Zechen didn't get financing, he was thinking about how to raise money. Now, the financing has arrived, but it is difficult again.

   "I'm optimistic about you, and I'm also optimistic about the development prospects of this industry. That's why I invest." Kishimoto Masayoshi said with confidence.

   "Can you give me some time to think about it? After all, I still need to call back to Korea to discuss with a few other key personnel." Jin Zechen said solemnly.

"No problem. If you think about it, give me this call at any time. Let's make an appointment." Masayoshi Kishimoto remembered the business card, so he took out a card box from his pocket and pulled out a card of his own. It was delivered to the opponent's hand with both hands.

   At the same time, Jin Zechen did not forget to take out his business card, and then exchanged it with the other party. Although he is Korean, he can also speak fluent Japanese.

  The whole process, they were communicating in Japanese. After the two bowed to each other and said goodbye, Kishimoto Masayoshi left the meeting place without turning around.

   He knows best that his money is only enough to invest in the current project. In addition, even if there is a good project, it is difficult for a clever woman to cook without rice. It's better not to know better than to look at it with unpleasant eyes.

  Kishimoto Masayoshi is not afraid that Kanazawa Chen will go back or find another investor. Right now, only a "fool" like him would invest in the online game industry.

Furthermore, the Asian financial turmoil is still continuing, and financing difficulties are not only in South Korea, one of the hardest hit areas, but even in RB, in the second half of 1997, a series of banks and securities companies in RB were affected and affected, and they all started. successive bankruptcy.

   Kishimoto Masayoshi expected that Kanazawa Chen had no choice, and the final consideration was to agree to cooperate with himself. What's more, the investment conditions proposed by him are not only not harsh at all, but also exceptionally generous.

   Masayoshi Kishimoto knew in advance that NCSoft Online Game Company would launch the currently under development "Paradise" in September 1998.

After    "Paradise" went public, its first-year profit exceeded $100 million. In this regard, NCSoft online game company is famous in the game industry.

  Jin Zechen was also very satisfied with this, and very high-profile said in public that it is enough to learn his company's "Paradise" for online games.

   As a result, follow-up online game works came into being. This also includes "Legend of Blood" by ActozSoft Software Co., Ltd. established on October 29, 1996.

Kishimoto's plan is to earn the first pot of gold in his life from investing in NCSoft online game company, and then he will invest in ActozSoft Software Co., Ltd. in the future. After all, the influence of "Legend of Blood" in China is right and wrong. In general, it has also achieved unprecedented success.

   However, ActozSoft Co., Ltd. at this point in time is really not that good. Even the game works released later, the quality is not very good.

   Even if it started operating "Legend of Blood" in South Korea in November 1998, it is only a second-rate online game work in South Korea, and it cannot be compared with the popularity of "Paradise" at all.

Before Shanda Online Game Company successfully obtained the exclusive agency rights of "Legend of Blood" in China from ActozSoft Software Co., Ltd., its other online game "Millennium" will be launched in China in March 2001, earlier than "Legend of Blood" market.
