Morning No. 6, Seoul, SM Company

At this time, Seoul had not yet been renamed Seoul.

What a nice name, but it was changed by Bangzi...

As soon as Li Xiuman arrived at the company, he received a report from his secretary that someone from China [Chaoyang Company] was visiting.

When he heard the name [Chaoyang Company], Li Xiuman immediately realized, wasn't this the Ye Fan Company that was banning his artist?

Li Xiuman frowned and asked, "Did they say they had anything to do with me, Smecta?"

The secretary replied: "If anyone comes, tell me it's something that interests you, President Smecta!"

Li Xiuman's frown deepened. During this time, he went out of his way to get to know Ye Fan's personality.

Judging from Ye Fan's temper and the things he did, it was obvious that he was not an easy person to get along with. The person he sent here this time would not be to make peace, and the person who came was definitely not a good person.

"Then you arrange for him to come to my office. I want to see what tricks Ye Fan wants to play!"

"Okay, President, I'll make arrangements right away!"

Looking at the secretary's leaving figure, Li Xiuman thought for a while, then returned to the office and looked at the information on Ye Fan and [Chaoyang Company]...

"Hello, President Li, I am Cao Fuzhen, manager of the Korean business department of Chaoyang Company."

Hearing Cao Fuzhen's fluent Korean, Li Xiuman nodded and said, "You speak Korean well. Does your company have anything to do with me?"

Cao Fuzhen smiled. Before that, he was just a middle-level manager at [Chaoyang Company], but he spoke the best Korean and had good business skills.

That's why Wang Jinghua sent him to South Korea, and the position of [Korean Affairs Department Manager] cannot be obtained until he can settle matters with SM Company.

Of course, this does not prevent Cao Fuzhen from using a big banner to deceive Li Xiuman first. After all, he is also the chairman of a company with a market value of more than 100 million. Even if there is a conflict between the two parties, it would be too insulting to send someone with a too low level.

"We, Mr. Ye, want to make a Korean movie. Let me come over and talk to you, Mr. Li, about cooperation."

Hearing that Ye Fan "asked" for him, Li Xiuman's attitude suddenly became arrogant. He leaned back and sneered:

"Your company dares to ban my artists in China, and now you still want to cooperate with me? Do you think it's possible?"

Cao Fuzhen didn't take it seriously and said with a slight smile: "It's impossible, President Li, what you say doesn't count, what we, Mr. Ye, say does."

"To put it nicely, I'm looking for you to cooperate. To put it bluntly, you have to cooperate even if you don't want to. Our President Ye has said that you have no room for bargaining with him!"

"Axi! What did you say? How dare you say it again! How dare Ye Fan be so arrogant when he asks me for help? There is absolutely no way I can cooperate with you! Get out of here!"

Seeing Li Xiuman becoming very angry, Cao Fuzhen felt very happy.

A young man dares to grin at their great Mr. Ye. No wonder Wang Jinghua told him not to be too polite to Li Xiuman. [Chaoyang Company] is his most powerful backer.

"President Li, what are you so anxious about? You should first look at these documents and tell me."

Cao Fuzhen ignored Li Xiuman's burning eyes and took out a stack of information from his briefcase and handed it to Li Xiuman.

When Li Xiuman saw this, he was even more angry. He didn't want to see any documents at all. He just wanted to teach this ignorant person in front of him a lesson!

Lee Soo Man just wanted to call security, but when he saw the eye-catching [SM Company Equity Transfer Contract] on the document that was written all over in Korean, he was startled, and then quickly calmed down.

He quickly took the document and looked at it, and found that all the shares of SM Company that had been bought by others were in the hands of [Chaoyang Company], which surprised him greatly!

After all, Ye Fan had previously purchased SM shares through many channels and flowed out of Korea. There was no connection between Hong Kong, Taiwan and the Mainland. How could Li Xiuman be able to trace the flow?

"You, you, you...it was actually Ye Fan who bought my company's shares?"

Li Xiuman never expected that his company's shares would be bought by his enemies, and Ye Fan would suddenly become SM's largest shareholder after him.

This made Li Xiuman both shocked and angry. Someone had stolen his home! Ye Fan was really Assi!

Looking at Li Xiuman, whose face was turning blue and white, Cao Fuzhen smiled and said:

"The procedures are complete, honest and in compliance with legal procedures, so today I am also making a request to you, President Li, as a shareholder representative."

"In addition, Mr. Ye also said, President Li, whenever you finish filming the movie, the Chinese market will be reopened to you."

"If you still don't agree, Mr. Ye advises SM not to go public. He can use his money to knock you out!"

These words made Li Xiuman even more angry. He originally thought it was Ye Fan who came to "beg him", but he didn't expect that he was the clown!

But with the equity certificate in his hand and Ye Fan's threats, even though he was very frightened and angry, he still tried his best to stay rational.

He just read the information, not to mention that [Chaoyang Company]'s market value is more than twice that of SM Company, Guang Yefan's personal assets are more than SM Company, and all of them are cash flow.

Compared with his ability to attract money and cash flow, Ye Fan could definitely crush him. Coupled with Ye Fan's methods and connections, Li Xiuman had to calm down.

However, as the president of Da Bangzi Entertainment Company, Lee Soo Man's pride made him ready to be tough.

But Cao Fuzhen had already taken the initiative, so how could he give him a chance? The two of them started to quarrel again.

Cao Fuzhen was both soft and hard, leaving Li Xiuman, who was unprepared, with no way to do anything.

But going too far was not enough, Cao Fuzhen found a way out for Li Xiuman, and then he made him accept the reality and choose to compromise.

"Ye Xi... what movie is the president planning to make? What kind of help does he need from us?"

"He wrote a script, and you guys filmed everything else, so this can be said to be a Korean movie."

After Cho Fuzhen finished speaking, he took out "The Day the Country Bankruptcy" and handed it to Lee Soo Man. After taking it, he read it for a while and was shocked by the content of the script.

He raised his head and said angrily: "What is President Ye doing? Why would he write such a script? I will never film such content!"

Then Lee Soo Man started to talk a lot about the impact and tragedy caused by the financial crisis on South Korea. He was so patriotic!

After Cao Fuzhen let him finish explaining the reasons why he couldn't make the movie, he began to analyze the benefits of making the movie.

For example, the financial crisis has only passed not long ago. Filming this content will definitely generate high buzz and box office, which will allow SM to gain a foothold in the film industry and help it expand its influence.

Moreover, the content of "The Day the Nation went Bankrupt" mainly focuses on the portrayal of human nature, which will make the Korean people empathize and avoid some sensitive content. As for whether to launch anti-American propaganda at that time, it depends on Lee Soo Man's wishes.

.

What's more, if the domestic market can be reopened to him, Ye Fan will also help him if SM goes public, etc...

For a capitalist, so many practical benefits are enough to shake Li Xiuman's attitude.

After he calmed down, he thought for a moment and said he wanted to think about it.

Upon seeing this, Cao Fuzhen said nothing more. After all, it was indeed a big deal. He was about to get up and leave to report the situation to Wang Jinghua, leaving some space for Li Xiuman...

After Ye Fan received Wang Jinghua's report, he was not surprised by Li Xiuman's change of attitude. On the contrary, if he really loved his country so much, Ye Fan would still look up to him.

Since Lee Soo Man said he would consider it, it basically depends on whether the interests of both parties can be reached. If they can negotiate well, there will basically be no problem.

Thinking of South Korea, Ye Fan called Zhongsheng Company again and asked Li Yaozong to learn about the situation of Korean game companies.

"Legend" has been officially in operation for more than five months, and the current number of online users has exceeded 500,000.

With version updates, the game is becoming more and more stable, the point card fee is also increasing, and the monthly revenue has exceeded 50 million RMB.

Including the revenue in the previous few months, the total revenue has exceeded more than 140 million RMB, which is really a huge profit!

Seeing that the time was ripe, Ye Fan asked Li Yaorong to arrange for Actoz Company to send someone to contact [Target Software] and let it act as an agent for the domestic operation of "Legend".

Because [Target Software] reported to Ye Fan this morning that the main game of "War of the Three Kingdoms" has been almost completed, but the funds have also been exhausted.

Only after Ye Fan has finished testing it himself can they officially release it to the public.

After all, the core creative ideas of "War of the Three Kingdoms" all came from Ye Fan. Without his nod, Zhang Chun would not dare to say that it was done.

Moreover, the employees at [Target Software] are eager to test "War of the Three Kingdoms" later so that they can use the name of testing the game to play games at work.

Because the competitiveness and gameplay of 5V5MOBA games are too strong, and there are too many addictive game elements.

"War of the Three Kingdoms" is a Three Kingdoms theme that most Chinese people like. It has not yet been released, but it has already exploded in the [Target Software] company.

Zhang Chun then informed Ye Fan, hoping that he would complete the test as soon as possible so that the company could sell the game and make money.

But Ye Fan asked him to send someone to bring some game CDs to Hengdian. He didn't have time to return to the capital, so he could only test them in Hengdian.

Moreover, Ye Fan still has to consider in detail whether this game should be sold in China. Regardless of the factor of piracy, if he wants to quickly promote the 5V5MOBA game, free is definitely the best way.

Moreover, later "Skin Glory", even "DOTA2" and "LOL" made Ye Fan understand that for such games, promotion and market share are the most important.

As long as there is market share, there are many ways to make money in the game, especially the domestic game environment is very suitable for this model.

If this is done, "War of the Three Kingdoms" will definitely not make much money in the early stages of operation, so it will have to rely on other games to replenish its blood, and "Legend" is undoubtedly the best choice.

In addition, eowiz has established operating subsidiaries in South Korea and the United States to begin official sales and operations.

Of course, the main executives of operating subsidiaries are all appointed or recruited by [Zhongsheng Company], while other employees are recruited locally.

A copy of "CS" is priced at US$50 in the United States and US$30 in South Korea. As for other countries, it is priced separately according to local conditions.

As for "CS" in China, Ye Fan considers operating it on the same model as "War of the Three Kingdoms", for the same reason as "War of the Three Kingdoms".

After these two games are cracked, they can be played on a local area network, and with the stand-alone mode, piracy will definitely not let them go.

Instead of cheap piracy, it is better to promote it for free to increase market share and facilitate the development of its domestic game battle platform.

In the future Internet era, for most industries, the platform will be the first party! Just like game consoles!

And Ye Fan’s goal is not only that, his ultimate goal is to build the battle platform into a domestic or even Chinese version of STEAM!

After arranging the game, Ye Fan glanced at Jiao Enjun and others who were acting. It was hard to do anything with children. These stars were rich, famous and well-connected.

Instead of turning them into the first generation of Internet-addicted stars, it would be shameful for him to act with such a low salary. How could Ye Fan take advantage of the Hong Kong and Taiwanese people in the crew of "Little Li Fei Knife".
