Chapter 653 557pokeni Has Become a Money-Eating Beast Again!

After the 1211 incident, the whole world was very nervous.

Son Zhengyi will call Qing Zhiyuan in a few days.

He just hung up here, and then Huang Renxun from the United States called in.

"Mr. Qing, the incident is very serious. Nvidia's stock has fallen a lot again."

There are quite a few. Qing Zhiyuan glanced at it and felt that NVIDIA was not just a problem of falling below the issue price, it had fallen by almost 90%.

Fortunately, during the special period, Milianchu suspended the stock market for a period of time, giving it a certain buffer. Otherwise, Nvidia, which had not risen much in the first place, would not know what it would become.

Therefore, during this period of time, Lao Huang's heart could be said to be in a state of ups and downs.

Listed companies have this trouble. They know clearly that it is just a number, but they are always led by the nose. The daily rise and fall can make people's hearts beat faster.

If you continue like this, you will definitely have a heart attack.

However, Qing Zhiyuan has also been through it, and he knows that this crisis is actually quite short-lived, lasting about 4 or 5 months.

And after this time, the U.S. stock market will rise strongly.

NVIDIA has been going higher and higher since then, and Lao Huang will also start his journey to the top of his life.

So Qing Zhiyuan acted extremely calmly, "It's okay, Lao Huang, I will buy back some Nvidia shares."

Although it is not much, it is a drop in the bucket. It is impossible to rely on pokeni to boost the US stock market, but it is still possible to buy some Nvidia shares.

Hearing Qing Zhiyuan's words, Huang Renxun was moved to death.

"Thank you so much. Being able to repurchase the company's shares at this time will definitely enhance the confidence of shareholders."

Lao Huang was almost moved to tears.

Shareholders like Qing Zhiyuan are really big angels. Not only do they invest in Nvidia and provide design ideas, but at critical moments, pokeni can always step forward and boost confidence by buying Nvidia shares.

Lao Huang himself knows very well that extraordinary times require shareholders to work together and show determination.

Things that were difficult to talk about were solved with just one phone call.

Qing Zhiyuan is really my great benefactor!

After thanking him repeatedly, Huang reluctantly hung up the phone.

…

As soon as Huang Renxun's session ended, the two founders of Google, Larry Page and Sergey Brin, called Qing Zhiyuan and expressed their predicament euphemistically.

On the one hand, it is really urgent, and it can be regarded as seeking comfort for its shareholders to complain. On the other hand, it also hopes to stabilize pokeni, an investor, and not to sell Google's shares easily at this time.

Who knew that Qing Zhiyuan was kinder than they thought, and the first words he said when he came up were:

"I will buy back some Google stock. You don't have to worry too much."

Waterfalk? !

Larry Page and Sergey Brin look at each other.

Good guy, I originally just persuaded Qing Zhiyuan not to sell, but I didn't expect that he would directly buy more?

What kind of angel is this?

The more critical the moment, the more we can witness the human heart.

Sure enough, there are not only capitalists in the world who are completely mercenary. There are also people like Qing Zhiyuan who value feelings and partners.

They were almost moved to tears.

But Qing Zhiyuan said, I'm sorry, although I also value feelings, but I am really just seeking profit in this matter.

Buffett makes a lot of sense: When others are greedy, I am fearful, and when others are fearful, I am greedy. If we don’t buy more shares of Google and Nvidia now, it will become increasingly difficult in the future.

After expressing their deep gratitude, the two founders hung up the phone.

Qing Zhiyuan looked down at his mobile phone and couldn't help but let out a bitter smile.

Good guy, I was ready to take action, but I didn't expect that they would come to my door one by one.

And also thank me.

Qing Zhiyuan said that he would wake up laughing even in his dreams.

At this time, the advantage of cash flow comes into play.

A rough calculation shows that the cash flow that the company can mobilize is close to US$4 billion.

Qing Zhiyuan's pokeni is not listed on the market, so the impact is actually not too big. And there is sufficient cash flow, which is conducive to him entering the market for harvesting at this time.

…

After hanging up the phone, Operations Director Kazuma Takahashi was a little worried, "Although I know that you are a kind-hearted person, President, wouldn't it be a bit too reckless to enter the market at this time?

It feels like the money we invested is likely to be wasted in the end. "

Anyone who still buys and buys even though he knows that the stock market is going to plummet tomorrow must be said to be a true warrior.

It can't even be described as a warrior, it can be described as an idiot.

Qing Zhiyuan smiled calmly and said that you have no idea how the stocks of these companies will rise in the future.

"Hey," Qing Zhiyuan shook his head and pretended to be sad, "Forget it, partners, who doesn't have difficulties?

If something happens to pokeni one day, others can also lend a helping hand, right? "

Woo woo woo...

Kazuma Takahashi was almost moved by the president.

President, you are truly an angel.

…

After sighing, Kazuma Takahashi reported on his recent work tasks at the end of the year:

"Regarding the previously determined release schedule, we are now carrying out the publicity and promotion work according to the plan.

By the end of the year, two Pokémon games will be available.

Just like the year before last.

The twin sequels of Pokémon 3D World.

This time they are "Pokémon 3D World: Dream Forest" and "Pokémon 3D World: Rainbow Kingdom".

Both are actually more illusory, and the results are actually quite good."

"Yeah." Qing Zhiyuan nodded, "Thank you for your hard work. You should pay more attention to this side."

"No problem, President."

Takahashi Kazuma responded.

However, after hesitating for a while, he mustered up the courage to ask weakly:

"Do we still need to release the game in the European and American regions at this time?"

"Hmm?"

Qing Zhiyuan was slightly stunned, and quickly reacted.

Takahashi Kazuma is worried that the consumption of American residents may be affected by the stock market, and it is still unknown how long the subsequent impact of the 1211 incident will last.

Maybe the Pokémon twin games released in Omit this time will not have a good effect in the end.

So Kazuma Takahashi asked tentatively whether the game should be postponed for a while.

Neon will release it as usual, and then postpone it for half a year in Europe and the United States.

"Of course it has to be released. If the stock market collapses, will people stop eating, drinking and having fun?"

Qing Zhiyuan rolled his eyes, "We have done the publicity and promotion, there is no reason to postpone the release."

"The collapse is also temporary, and it will definitely rise again in the future."

"Okay, President."

Although Kazuma Takahashi himself does not have such a long-term vision and cannot see when the US stock market will be boosted in the future, he has one biggest advantage -

trusting the president's words.

...

When the whole world is facing the financial tsunami, Pokeni's boat set sail again.

On December 2i released "Pokémon 3D World: Dream Forest" as originally planned.

It was not only released in Neon, but also in Europe and the United States.

At first, his colleagues in the United States exclaimed whether Pokeni was crazy.

Because Americans are still very different from countries like China and Neon.

In fact, a large part of their residents' wealth is placed in the stock market, which means that the proportion of financial wealth is higher.

China and Japan have a higher proportion of real estate and savings, and there are not many stock investors who really trade stocks.

This is also closely related to the different consumption and investment concepts of each country.

So after the 1211 incident, many Americans remained pessimistic. They didn't know where to invest the money in the stock market. If they put it in the stock market, they would definitely lose money.

At this time, even if you want to sell it, no one will want it.

The whole nation is pessimistic, and the disposable wealth is reduced.

Under such circumstances, there will inevitably be a wave of consumption downgrade.

The reason is actually very simple:

I have less money in my hand, so I will definitely give priority to my daily life, food, clothing, and other necessities. After all, living is the first priority.

After this foundation is met, higher-level consumer goods will be considered.

At this time, ordinary people will definitely not consider luxury goods. Some hidden gentlemen may even use the money for food to buy happiness.

For most ordinary people, how to spend money has become a very practical problem.

Therefore, many institutions do not believe that the game can still sell well at this time.

In the past, you could say that Pokeni's game was unreasonably strong, but this time it is not a question of whether the game is good or not, but whether the entire game market will shrink or even slump.

…

Just when everyone was watching and skeptical, waiting for the stock market to pick up, Paradox took action again.

And it created a miracle.

As soon as "Pokémon 3D World: Dream Forest" was released, it immediately swept the global game market.

In the first week, the game sales reached an astonishing 3 million copies.

Then it quickly broke through 10 million in three weeks.

There is a historical miracle.

Created by Pokeni again.

People were surprised to find that in such an economic setback, the game market could still maintain a high growth rate, which was incredible.

"What's wrong with this world?!"

"It's too weird, isn't it? Is Pokeni's boss God? If he wants the world to have light, there will be light?

If he wants the game to sell well, it will sell well?"

"I can understand that Neon can sell well, but why? Many people in Europe and the United States clearly predicted that consumption would be downgraded, so why can Pokeni still achieve such good results?

I don't accept it."

"This is simply a ghost."

...

Later, after investigation and research by relevant institutions, it was found that:

There is a history of economic setbacks and entertainment industry prosperity.

First, during the economic upswing, people are busy and have relatively less time for entertainment.

On the contrary, the more depressed the economy is, the higher the unemployment rate is, and the longer the holidays are, the more free time people have. Compared with learning, which requires brainpower, most people are more willing to spend time and energy on entertainment and leisure.

When you are busy, you have no time for entertainment. When you are free, you can't help but have fun. People with reduced income still have a strong desire to consume. They need to pass the time through entertainment. For example, those retired elderly people who are free, chess and card rooms have become a good place for them to pass their loneliness. For those housewives who are free, chasing dramas or shopping has become their daily leisure.

Second, it is so difficult to make money and the income is so low that it is difficult for us to save money to do some major things in life, such as buying a house, buying a car, traveling abroad, getting married, etc., all hopeless. We are in an economic dilemma, but we have some small money on hand.

What can this small money do?

You can't do anything, but you can buy beer and fried chicken, enough for a movie ticket, and buy some game equipment.

Although it is a "cheap non-essential thing", it can give us a kind of psychological comfort, temporarily forget the economic dilemma, and divert life problems.

When the unemployed man at home is desperate and painful, he will play video games all night to divert his attention. College students who fail to find a job will comfort themselves by eating a big meal. It's the same.

Third, people in European and American countries have been brainwashed by consumerism for a long time: enjoy life and enjoy life in time.

Driven by this consumption concept, people are willing to spend money on some [light luxury goods] and [light entertainment] that can be obtained.

…

In fact, Japanese people should have a deeper understanding of this. After the economic bubble burst in the 1990s, the game industry was one of the few industries that could rise against the trend. Not only was it not affected, but it was thriving.

It was also in such an economic environment that Uniqlo fought its way out with super high cost performance and extremely cheap prices, and became one of the largest clothing brands in Japan.

This time, the United States was affected by 1211, and the money invested in the stock market by residents did suffer losses, but it does not mean that their entertainment consumption will be reduced to zero.

Even many people's entertainment activities have changed from traveling abroad and high consumption to [playing games], which is the most enjoyable but cheap activity.

So under such circumstances, Pokeni's game decisively attacked, not only did not encounter the storm, but set sail and took off.

Especially the world-class IP such as Pokémon, which has a super high popularity in itself, and is also a family game. Having fun with family and friends during the Chinese New Year can provide people with warmth and emotional value.

In this cold winter, Pokémon has created a warm and healing atmosphere.

Even if it is an illusion, it can make people forget the disaster they encountered not long ago. Therefore, under such circumstances, it would be a miracle if it didn't explode.

In December, Pokémon: Dream Forest opened the situation.

In January, another Pokémon: Rainbow Kingdom was released.

As soon as the two Pokémon came out,

they continued to harvest New Year's money.

Money flowed into Pokeni.

And there was something very special about this year:

Previous games would be affected by physical production capacity, mainly because the burning of optical discs took a certain amount of time and cost.

But since Pokeni launched the Dandelion game platform and opened the era of digital games.

The carrier of the game has changed and become a virtual product with [unlimited] capacity.

In this case, the Pokémon harvester has become a gold-eating monster, which makes people feel extremely horrified just by imagining it.

Money can no longer be described as a simple harvest.

It is completely sucked in like a storm.

…

All the game manufacturers couldn't help but gasp.

"Fuck! Why is it Pokeni again?!"

"Is this going to squeeze the entire world's game market?"

"Too scary, I can't imagine this is really happening."

"Only a madman like Qing Zhiyuan can do this kind of thing."

"If it were any other company's game, it would face huge risks and failure.

There's no way, Pokeni's success can't be replicated."

"Oh my god, Pokeni is making a lot of money again!"
