Chapter 29 28. Decision plan

Hotel, conference room.

Gu Heng tapped the demo version behind him with the back of his fingers.

"I'm sorry to call you all over the weekend, but time is limited. We need to make corresponding judgments based on Kakao's latest plan as soon as possible and adjust our negotiation direction, so thank you all."

He looked at a man wearing gold glasses and said,

"Maoxun, please first introduce the consensus we have reached with Kakao Corp during this period."

"Okay," Li Maoxun spread out the documents and materials in front of him. "Under the pressure of the capital chain, Kakao Corp has made some initial reassurance. President Jin Fanxiu agreed to trade in a small number of common stocks and some preferred stocks, and we will be stationed as a standing officer. However, accordingly, the price of this transaction will also increase a lot compared to before."

"Have you determined the follow-up plan?" Gu Heng continued.

Kakao Corp's concessions were not unexpected.

Judging from the degree of threat to Kim Fanxiu's control of the company, the mixed capital in South Korea is more dangerous than the external Jingsheng.

"I have communicated with Kakao several times in the past two days. At present, President Kim Fanxiu has made a formal statement within the company. He is indeed planning to start with the game and find new profit points."

"What about the specific direction?"

"The plan is to first acquire and integrate an old game company to create a large online game at the fastest speed."

“Big Online Game?”

Gu Heng frowned almost subconsciously.

Lee Maoxun put on his glasses and added, "Yes, it's not without feasibility. Kim Fanxiu's starting work is an online game community website, which has a keen sense of smell for South Korea's game market trends."

Gu Heng thought for a moment and shook his head, "I don't doubt his ability in this regard, but judging from the production cycle of large-scale games, there will be a very long gap between acquisition and release."

After pausing, he sorted out his thoughts, Gu Heng continued,

"Profit is very important to Kakao now and needs to be achieved in the short term, but all of this needs to be based on the core of Kakao talk. Acquisition of a company to create large-scale games is absolutely not feasible, and the risk is too high."

"However, even if we reach an agreement with Kakao, Kim Fanxiu's shares still account for about 50%. He currently has absolute control over Kakao Corp, and we may have opinions."

"But the funds are in our hands at present. As long as we don't nod, what is the difference between his plan and the castle in the air?" Liu Chen, who had not spoken, slowly spoke, "Jin Fanxiu."

The meeting room was quiet.

After closing his eyes and thinking for a while, Liu Chen looked at Gu Heng, "Gu Heng, what are your thoughts?"

"The game business is indeed one of the life-saving straws that Kakao can grasp now, but the implementation path should not be to self-developed large-scale games or web-based games. This is a waste of Kakao talk's own advantages."

“Continue.”

"A light casual game with both social attributes should be the correct goal of Kakao Corp."

Gu Heng wrote down four words: [Mobile terminal], [Mobile game], [User], [Social platform] on the display board behind him.

"After the emergence of touch screen mobile phones, the era of mobile games has truly arrived. The popular products that have appeared from time to time in the past two years represent this trend."

"As the social platform with the highest share in South Korea, such a huge traffic portal is a dream for any mobile game."

"Centralized release of several games of this type will drive popularity through Kakaotalk's short-term centralized promotion, with less risk and greater possibility of commercial success."

"And, if one of the games can break the circle, then there is still a chance to feed back the number of users of the social software itself, thereby stabilizing Kakao talk's market position."

"Only in this way, Kakao has the opportunity to achieve a significant narrowing of losses within one to two years."

After a while of silence, Liu Chen knocked on the table, "Maoxun."

"Yes, Mr. Liu."

"If you communicate with Kakao, we should enjoy a certain right to intervene in the business decisions of new businesses. Only when this is guaranteed can we talk about other things."

"Okay, Mr. Liu."

After making some other explanations and arrangements, Liu Chen announced the end of the meeting.

Gu Heng was left alone.

The two of them came to the floor-to-ceiling window of the conference room.

"I'm a little worried." Liu Chen said.

"Are you talking about Jin Fanxiu?" Gu Heng looked at Liu Chen.

"Um."

"I'm afraid he thinks the same way for us." Gu Heng smiled.

Unlike emerging Internet companies like Kakao Corp, Jingsheng is closer to a traditional, semi-family diversified business group.

Before Gu Changzhi took the lead, Jingsheng's focus was always on commercial real estate, infrastructure, power, medicine and other real industries, and was known for its steady and steady management style. It was not until in recent years that under the leadership of Gu Changzhi, he began to extend his tentacles to other emerging industries.

"I feel very uneasy when Kim Fanxiu is a man," Liu Chen shook his head, "I'll keep an eye on what is being formulated in the new plan."

"good."

"If the negotiation is finally done, I will talk about this later."

Liu Chen swallowed the words and changed his tone, "Okay, you go too. Are you going to see the grandmother of the Li family today?"

"Yes, I'll pick up Zhien first."

"That little girl from the Li family" Liu Chen smiled, "Speaking of it, I called Lao Gu a few days ago and said that this little girl has become a celebrity singer now. He was shocked, but he also said that when the little girl yelled at him, her voice was very loud, and she was indeed a good material for singing."

Gu Heng laughed, "You two are still talking about this."

If Li Zhien knew Gu Changzhi's comment, she would not know how she would react.

After chatting with Liu Chen for a few more words, Gu Heng said goodbye and left.

After leaving the hotel, he stopped a taxi on the street.

After getting into the car and getting seated, he reported to the driver the address of the loen company where Lee Ji-en is.

During the days when they first arrived in Seoul, Li Zhien still stayed at home every day.

But it is obvious that it is impossible for her to let her take a long vacation in the agency, so recently Lee Ji-eun has become busy again these days, and sometimes she lives in the company directly.

After taking out the phone, Gu Heng dialed out Li Zhien's number.

He had never been to Loen Company. If Lee Ji-eun or her agent assistant came down to take it, he would probably be blocked from the door.

But the phone beeps several times, but it didn't answer.

"Strange, did you sleep until noon and haven't gotten up?"

After looking at the time on the phone, Gu Heng was a little confused.

If Li Zhien still didn't reply to him when he got to Loen, it would be a little troublesome

Or you need to contact Li Zhongxin and his wife for the contact information of Li Zhien’s agent.

Gu Heng's fingers unconsciously swiped back and forth on the screen.

"Sir, I'm here."

Before he could think about a result, the taxi had arrived outside the loen company.

"OK, thanks."

After getting off the car, Gu Heng looked at the six-story loen company building in front of him.

He took out his cell phone again and was about to call He Jingshu when his shoulder was gently patted.

"Gu Heng?" Someone called his name in a slightly awkward accent.

"Miss Liu Renna," Gu Heng was also surprised when he saw the woman with exquisite makeup behind him, "Why did you not see you for a long time?"

Liu Renna bent her fox-like eyes, "Yes, it seems to be very destined."
