 A few days later, Mickford officially disclosed the latest business transaction information.

Mickford's game division will be sold to Nintendo in a package, including its employees and all assets.

Nintendo will simultaneously launch its Fortnite and subsequent games on the Mickford platform, and promises to sell some exclusive items on the Mickford platform.

Myron Keys was very happy when he announced the news.

The day he returned, he gathered together several major shareholders to discuss the matter.

 At the beginning, they were not happy that the game department was being sold at a low price.

 But Myron Keys followed Zhu Youxing’s suggestion and got the group to play a few games of Fortnite, and they all acquiesced to the acquisition.

They may not necessarily like this game, but they must admit that the popularity of this game is really high.

 If such a game that can expand the user base does not land on the Mickford platform, this will be the biggest mistake of the Mickford platform.

Then when the news was announced, Mickford's stock price rose not long after, which was able to make up for the loss from the acquisition, and these shareholders no longer had any unnecessary words.

Nintendo is indeed a very good partner.

  On the day he successfully convinced shareholders, Myron Keyes excitedly called Zhuyouxing to announce the good news and informed him that the acquisition of Mickford's gaming department could be carried out.

 The overall acquisition needs to be reviewed by financial institutions after being proposed, and then undergo various reconsiderations, which may take a long time.

 At this time Lorenzo's role came into play.

 He used his connections to directly accelerate the pace of acquisitions.

Myron Keys was still a little confused as to why he was speeding up so much.

 But he didn’t think much about it, thinking that maybe Nintendo was in urgent need of talents.

 After all, there were less than 200 employees before.

Then at the end of Fortnite’s fourth month, the acquisition of Mickford’s gaming division was completed.

This is just a small game department acquisition, and it is an acquisition by a US-funded company. The scale is not large. Coupled with Lorenzo's connections, the acquisition efficiency is extremely high.

It just happened that Nintendo’s personnel information was stuck and the acquisition was completed before the official exposure.

 At this point, all the dust has settled.

 The speed was so fast that Suri Electronics and several other large game companies were caught off guard.

Suri Electronics was the first to protest, because suddenly there was a strong competitor, and it was also a game company with a strong capital background.

 But Suri Electronics’ protest had no effect. This was just a small acquisition. A few hundred million dollars sounds like a big deal, but it is nothing to a large company.

 There were many similar acquisitions in the same year, and many larger than this.

 “I’m finally leaving Mickford.”

In front of the headquarters of Mickford, a group of game developers looked at Mickford's building with some sadness.

 To be honest, they are still a little reluctant to part with Mickford.

But they also felt a sense of relief.

 This company is very depressing.

Must achieve enough results.

 Myron Keyes allows the hardware and system departments to fight for a long time, but he will not allow the game department to be unable to obtain the desired benefits for a long time.

“Let’s go, this place no longer belongs to us. All our things have been put in the car and moved to Nintendo’s new building. From now on, that will be our home.”

At this time, the middle-aged man who was still the head of the game department comforted him.

Then he took the lead to leave Mickford's gate position.     Some people may still have a little bit of emotion.

 But when one person made the decision first, the others no longer hesitated, turned around and left Mickford's building.

 From now on this place is no longer their home.

 Their new home is Nintendo.

Before they left the building, Nintendo had packed up and moved all the resources of the game department here.

IP, game-related technologies, etc. were all packaged and acquired together.

In order to keep things out of sight, Keyes even gave his half-year remaining rights to use the Unreal Engine to Nintendo.

Of course, the reward is that Nintendo promises to make another small Internet social game within a month to enhance the influence of the Mickford platform.

Zhuyouxing has already thought about it, just make an old-fashioned farm game. This game has long been ruined. Zhuyouxing can make some new ideas, but most of it is to fool Mickfu.

At this moment, these employees stayed at their posts until the last day as agreed. Even though everything in their offices had been emptied, they still stayed at their workstations all morning.

 At noon, they all got on the buses to Nintendo and went to Nintendo's new office building.

In order to welcome these new employees, Lorenzo deliberately spent his own money to build a new building and increased investment by 3%.

Zhuyouxing almost used all of Lorenzo's financial resources in vain, and he only proposed the game Fortnite.

However, the influence of Fortnite also proves that Lorenzo’s investment was correct.

 The capital can be easily repaid within three months, and the capital chain is now very healthy. This will also be a steady stream of cash cows in the future.

The new office is located on the outskirts of the city. It has been listed as a new development area by the local government. The building was built in advance to attract companies like Nintendo to move in, so the rent is also at the lowest price. Plus Lorenzo Giving money is almost like getting it for nothing.

 “I don’t know what will happen to the new company.”

“Speaking of which, will we be discriminated against? After all, we are considered lost dogs.”

"Definitely not." The middle-aged man who is now the head of the game department continued to comfort everyone.

 At this time, he no longer concealed it.

“In fact, the identity of the company that acquired us is beyond your imagination. It is also a strategy that I have been hiding from you until now, but there is no need to hide it now.”

 “Hide? What to hide?”

 Everyone was confused.

 “What else does Nintendo have?”

Someone said half-jokingly at this time: "Is it possible that their boss, Mr. Nintendo, has some very important status?"

“Haha, how is it possible? This is a relatively famous independent game producer.”

 No one really believes it.

The head of the game department just showed a mysterious smile: "His identity will really exceed your imagination. Oh, we are here. Our new boss is waiting for us. You should be able to see him by now. He is us. The new boss of the future.”

When everyone heard this, they all looked out of the bus windows, and then they saw a brand new building from far to near, and there were hundreds of people waiting in front of the building, all holding a bouquet of flowers in their hands. There are banners welcoming new employees in the distance.

 And directly in front of these people, they saw a person.

The man was not wearing a hood.

 When everyone saw his appearance, everyone's breathing stopped briefly.
