Chapter 505 MADE IN HEAVEN! Let Acquisitions Accelerate Here!

Things have been getting worse and worse lately.

Carter Walker, who had bloodshot eyes, looked at the latest financial report sent by his assistant this morning and fell into unprecedented panic and even confusion.

To some extent, he had been sleepless for more than 72 hours.

Perhaps he briefly squinted for two or three hours in the meantime, but now that he was so dizzy, he couldn't remember it at all.

Today, Fantasy’s market value has fallen below the bottom, with the latest valuation remaining at only $11.5 billion.

Moreover, it rained all night when the house leaked.

Judging from the latest report, a company based in Poland is frantically acquiring small and medium-sized shares of their dream with a huge amount of funds.

Obviously, this company from Poland is going to forcefully acquire them.

The company's market value has declined day by day, small and medium-sized shareholders have left the market, equity ownership has changed on a large scale, and there is even capital to conduct hostile takeovers of them...

All of this was within Carter Walker's expectations.

But what he didn't expect was that the person who launched the aggressive acquisition of them turned out to be an unknown company.

Poland?

When he first saw this territory, Carter Walker thought it was Aurora Games that was making efforts and was preparing to merge them under its banner.

But the problem is, after some investigation, this acquisition company has nothing to do with Aurora Games.

It doesn’t even have anything to do with the “game industry”!

According to the information they currently have, this is a technology venture capital company established ten years ago.

The company has never been large in scale. Most of the projects it has invested in before were in mobile communication technology. The overall investment projects are neither large nor small, and the company's business development is also tepid.

But it is such a little-known, mediocre company.

This time, they were targeted.

Although Carter Walker was dizzy, he was not completely confused.

This doesn't make sense?

He really couldn't understand it.

You know, generally speaking, hostile takeovers will only target companies that have made great progress in their own fields and have good room for development.

After all, the purpose of an acquisition is to make money. If a loss-making company acquires a company, it's too late to run away.

Of course, he could also guess that the Polish company acquired them in order to obtain the newly released Fantasy VI technology in their hands.

But the problem is...

Not to mention that the company that initiated the acquisition had never been involved in the gaming industry.

Just talking about the current reputation of Fantasy VI, it seems that it is not enough to make people salivate.

After all, everyone is now saying that their Fantasy VI and reality augmentation technology are——

…

"...garbage, garbage that can't be put on the table."

Neon.

Comella Chairman's Office.

"Originally developing in a direction where we already have a relative disadvantage is getting twice the result with half the effort, not to mention that the final effect is not satisfactory,"

As he spoke, Itosuke pushed the brewed oolong tea to the fat white man opposite him with a shiny face:

"Please, Mr. Cornick."

good!

Just when Huanmeng is in dire straits and exhausted!

Yunwei CEO Kao Nick, who originally said that the cooperation between the two parties has unlimited prospects and has a close relationship, has traveled across the ocean and arrived in Dongjin to start cooperation negotiations with Comella.

"Mr. Cornick couldn't have made the right decision,"

Itosuke smiled and said:

"It is better to get out of the mud in time than to lose more resources. Surviving with a broken arm is commendable for courage..."

Itosuke's words were very cool.

Even with a bit of sarcasm that adds insult to injury.

It is true that although Yunwei and Comela are both now affiliated with Vivendi Capital, they are theoretically "brotherly" companies.

But in fact, the overt and covert fighting between the two factions has never stopped, and they are always competing behind closed doors.

After all, both belong to giant companies and are leaders in Vivendi's gaming industry layout.

Whoever performs better will naturally win more awards and receive more resources.

Therefore, it is not surprising that Itosuke's face is like this.

It's hard on Kaunik.

I have spent half my life showing off my power, but I have been ruined by my "siblings".

Damn bastard, you found the opportunity to ridicule me, right...

Cornick cursed in his heart, secretly scolding Ito for helping the villain succeed.

But there is no good way.

Who makes Huan Meng, a loser, so disappointing!

The situation was originally great!

The blockade and price increase were implemented in one go. They could have covered the sky with one hand!

But in the end, it all fell short!

Nowadays, Fantasy has been abandoned by their true "prestige system".

As Carter Walker thought.

From the beginning, Fantasy was nothing more than a pawn in Cornick's hands.

Use it if you can, throw it away if you can't.

Although there was a loss, it was not considered a loss.

As for fantasy...

What does it matter whether we live or die?

"But it is said that some companies are now acquiring their equity, and the momentum is very strong,"

Hearing this, Itosuke said:

"Is there something fishy about this?"

A fight is a fight.

After all, the two are grasshoppers on the same line. Where there is concern, Itosuke will naturally show his keen sense of smell in time.

"Chairman Ito doesn't have to worry about this,"

After taking a sip of tea, Cornick waved his hand to indicate that there was no need to think too much:

"We noticed this when it started to appear,"

"After all, it stands to reason that investors would avoid such a company that is in the midst of a steep decline,"

"But after our investigation and understanding,"

"The acquisition is just a tepid ordinary investment group. It has never been involved in the game industry before and has no connection with game-related industries."

"Probably trying to find a big leak,"

"After all, Manhattan-based Fortis Capital missed out on the Terps Real Estate Group, which was on the verge of bankruptcy, and that's how it reached its current scale."

"In the capital paradise, every investor will think that he is the only one who is destined to be extraordinary,"

"The greater good and the stakes attract them like a lamp to a moth,"

"Maybe Chairman Ito is a little unfamiliar with this situation, but in fact, this kind of thing happens every day in the world of capital,"

"Countless moths perished in the sea of ​​fire,"

"As long as it has nothing to do with the gaming industry, we don't have to worry."

After listening to Cornick's words.

Itosuke shrugged in acquiescence.

Who is Cornick? What kind of group is Yunwei?

When it comes to hostile acquisitions and capital operations, looking at the game technology industry, how many people are more familiar with it than them?

This thing is Yunwei's specialty!

Now that Cornick has said so, there is no need for him to worry anymore.

Thinking of this, Itosuke nodded.

It was this nod.

Huanmeng's "Prestige Dis ally" has completely and ruthlessly abandoned him.

"In this regard, Mr. Kaunike is more professional, and I just worry too much,"

Saying that, Itosuke was relieved, waved his hand and said with a smile:

“It’s hard to imagine why a technology investment group would—”

…

"Information changed?"

Just one week later!

Carter Walker finally had a peaceful sleep.

Just yesterday, Laila Capital, a well-known game technology industry investment group, one of the major shareholders holding 12% of Fantasy shares, announced its withdrawal of shares.

The pretentious and mysterious Polish investment company finally took complete initiative with 30% of the shares and was ready to launch an acquisition offer for Fantasy at any time.

At that moment, all the anxiety and fear finally settled and turned into a sigh of helplessness.

Nine months.

A nightmare experience.

The Dream Engine, which was once all-powerful and prosperous for a while, and was called the "promising flagship" by many industry media, eventually fell into a sad end of being trapped in a cocoon.

It's dramatic, it's fast.

Perhaps when their market value reached 20 billion, no one would have thought that such a game technology group would fall into irreparable despair in less than a year.

He watched helplessly as his market was divided up, his flesh and blood was eaten away, and he eventually became a withered skeleton in a grave.

One day you are rich, the next you are ruined.

Wall Street never believed in longevity.

The so-called market value is all fictitious. Once the collapse begins, it will be like a building toppling over and it will be difficult to recover.

Perhaps it didn’t take too long for Huanmeng to seize the opportunity and increase its value wildly from the establishment of the group, but only a few years.

But once the illusory bubble bursts, collapse and disillusionment will obviously hit faster.

"A dream becomes a dream!" The stock price of Fantasy Engine continues to fall, and the rate of decline is jaw-dropping! 》

"The past is gone!" Fantasy's overall stock price collapsed, and Vivendi was silent on this! 》

"The major shareholder announced his departure!" Laila Capital withdrew its shares, making the dream even worse! 》

"The mysterious company takes over Laila Capital and holds more than 30% of the shares. What does it intend to do?" 》

"From Beloved to Rejected: Nine Months of Fantasy Nightmare"

"..."

There are reports and news that are negative one after another.

Oh no, it’s not “badmouthing” to be precise.

After all, Fantasy's dire situation no longer requires any exaggeration.

Carter Walker, who had nothing to rely on, finally chose to accept this irreversible situation.

After all, if he just doesn't accept it, there is no other way.

But that's strange to say.

When all hopes were dashed, as the helmsman of the company, he felt much more at ease.

Carter Walker, who had slept for a full twelve hours, now felt much better.

Wearing a formal suit is because the mysterious Polish company will arrive in the United States today and issue an acquisition invitation to them.

Soon, the secretary informed that the other party's negotiator had arrived in the conference room.

Carter Walker also nodded, took a long breath, stood up and headed to the conference room.

However!

Just as he opened the office door and walked towards the conference room!

An assistant ran over and informed him that just now, the Polish company had issued an announcement announcing changes in information!

The latest news brought by the assistant made Carter Walker feel a little dazed and slowed down a little:

"...You mean...the Polish company that is about to launch an acquisition invitation for us has just made information changes? What kind of changes are they? Shareholders? Or some high-level personnel changes?"

"Uh...neither,"

The assistant shook his head, looking confused, and handed the information to Carter Walker:

"They changed the company's slogan and...the name of the company."

Hear this!

Carter Walker, who received the information, frowned and muttered in confusion:

"Visual Rendering"

"Physical Calculus"

"AI"

"Sound echoes"

"network"

"Safe and secure"

"Augmented reality..."

Speaking of which!

The conference room door is open!

Carter Walker's eyes finally fell on the name of this mysterious Polish company——!

【MADE IN HEAVEN】

Made in heaven!

And the next moment!

The representative of Made in Heaven, who had been waiting for a long time, slowly stood up and said:

"Good morning, Mr. Carter Walker, our time is limited,"

"Let's speed up the acquisition."
