Chapter 1351: Idea
.,!
Chen Qing thought clearly: "The demand for oil will not fluctuate greatly in the short term, and is relatively stable. In comparison, if the oil price rises sharply, the volume of currency settlement will increase significantly, which is equivalent to giving the euro an opportunity. Oil prices plummet, and the demand for trading currencies plummets. It will be difficult for the euro to break through the dollar’s defense.”
Having said that, Chen Qing was still thinking about CNOOC's IPO, and suddenly felt that something might be more serious than she imagined.
It is well known that many industries have their own cycles.
If CNOOC's IPO happens to be at the lowest point in the oil industry, it may not be a question of how much money can be raised, but whether it can be raised. After all, global capital will be at a low point by then. The relevant industries in the period can't be avoided.
Not everyone dares to do this kind of thing, because you don't know whether the bottom-buying you think is on your waist or your legs.
Seeing a clear expression on Chen Qing's face, Simon turned a page of the information in front of him and said, "So, let's just be a spectator in this matter."
Chen Qing was still a little unwilling at first, but after thinking it through, she completely gave up some thoughts, but she still asked: "Boss, you just said that next year will be very lively. Besides the possibility of a sharp drop in oil prices, what else is there?"
Simon didn't want to be a prophet, so he shook his head and said, "Who knows, maybe it's not impossible for the third world war to break out by accident."
In fact, of course Simon knew.
Once in 1999, in order to stop the euro, the United States played a series of combination punches.
In addition to manipulating the plunge in oil prices and bringing the international oil price to an ultra-low level below $10 again, there is also the Kosovo war.
This local war not only exacerbated the tension in Eastern Europe, but also completely cut off the oil transportation pipeline from the Middle East to Western Europe via Yugoslavia, preventing the EU from buying oil from the Middle East directly and bypassing the US dollar settlement system more conveniently.
Then there is the eastward expansion of NATO.
Russia, which is also a major international energy country, has been trying to integrate into Europe for these years, and it has been stunned for this reason. With NATO's eastward expansion and pressure, Mao Xiong's illusion of integrating into Europe was disillusioned, and he had to start a confrontation again. As a result, the feasibility of energy purchase settlement between Europe and Russia directly through the euro was also cut off.
Add to this the various little tricks of the UK in refusing to give up the pound, and so on.
After such a combination of punches, the euro got off to a bad start, and it failed to threaten the status of the dollar until more than ten or twenty years later. Not only that, but the European Union, whose economic size is not inferior to the United States, will continue to accept the harvest of the dollar.
My boss didn't say much, and Chen Qing didn't ask any more questions. She looked down at her memo, and brought up yesterday's incident again: "Boss, Daewoo's semiconductor project, do I still want to do it?" Then she added: " I will do whatever my boss tells me to do."
Simon shook his head slightly: "It's useless for me to tell you what to do. Frankly speaking, if China wants to develop semiconductors, it must invest a huge amount of money in a state of continuous loss for more than ten years in order to have the possibility of catching up. According to that As the idiom puts it, we can only sink the boat.”
Chen Qing thought for a while, and said, "I think it's impossible to break the boat and sink the boat?"
Based on Chen Qing's understanding of related industries in the country, the chance of breaking the can is even greater.
Simon's expression was more meaningful, and he hesitated a little, but he didn't reveal the secret.
Rushing the boat is also divided into active and passive.
Back then, Xiang Yu took the initiative to burn the boat, not leaving himself a way out.
On the other hand, if you have no choice at all, you can only passively burn the boat.
In Simon's view, this is China's only option.
However, human nature tends to be comfortable. In the process of being passive, you must also withstand the temptation of drinking poison to quench your thirst when someone suddenly sends you a broken boat to take you on board temporarily.
Chen Qing still didn't want to use her own money for nothing, even if her boss wanted to pay, it would be a pity.
Since Simon was not reluctant, she lightly crossed her memo and turned to talk about the two upcoming games and e-commerce in China.
Simon had roughly heard Chen Qing's introduction, and said, "I've been thinking about this too recently. In China, Counter-Strike OL and StarCraft may not be very successful if they adopt the online point card charging model, even if I have emphasized the relevant upgrade system, but this is a turn-based game after all, which lacks continuity, and you can adjust it according to the specific situation. In addition, I suggest you start developing role-playing games.”
Chen Qing said, "Like "Legend of Sword and Fairy"?"
The first thing Simon thought of was actually the famous "Legend". Seeing Chen Qing talking about "Legend of Sword and Fairy", he suddenly became enlightened, and said: "Yes, it is just a role-playing in the online upgrade mode. Since you mentioned it, "Legend of Sword and Fairy" " is very popular in China now, and Jingxi is still making TV dramas, you can try to adapt this stand-alone game into an online game."
Simon briefly mentioned that Chen Qing already had an idea, and said: "In this case, boss, I should contact China as soon as possible to discuss the cooperation in the adaptation of the "Sword" online game in advance. I have watched the TV series samples over there. It’s very good, but it may cost a lot if it’s late.”
"I don't care about the details," Simon said: "In addition, I will give you some ideas, not just "Legend of Sword and Fairy", but many Chinese historical classics, myths and legends, such as "Journey to the West", "Romance of the Three Kingdoms", "Legend of the White Snake" " and the like, you can try to adapt it. In addition, in the West, you can take the time to read "The Lord of the Rings" for inspiration. Of course, Middle-earth
Don’t even think about the series of game adaptation copyrights. I mean, you can refer to them. In fact, the relevant settings of the popular real-time strategy games including Daenerys’s “Warcraft” come from Tolkien’s Middle-earth series. , you can also plan some western fantasy online games, set professional types such as mages, knights, and assassins, as well as camps such as humans, elves, dwarves, orcs, and so on. I believe it will be very popular in China too. "
Chen Qing quickly wrote it down in the memo, and raised her head after a while and said, "I'll get someone to come up with some plans for the boss as soon as possible."
Simon hesitated a little, and added: "China lacks the soil for game development. You can find teams in the United States and South Korea for development, and China is responsible for the agency."
"Boss, can Daenerys help?"
"Daenerys' game business has its own development plan, and will not take the initiative to cooperate with you, but you can talk about it."
"I will be the boss to endorse." Chen Qing hit the snake with the stick, and directly wrote down a few more notes in her notebook, and said again: "The boss said this, and I suddenly remembered that "Happy Farm", And "Happy Ranch", boss, can I directly transplant it to China this time?"
Simon also came to his senses: "Yes, I directly agreed."
In Europe and the United States, the "Happy Farm" series has passed its peak period. Before that, when there was no wall, China could actually play it, but because there was no special Chinese version developed, and there was no dedicated server set up, experience Not that good.
Now the wall has been erected, separating the inside and the outside. Then introduce this phenomenon-level casual game to China. If it works properly, it will not only make money, but more importantly, it will also attract a large number of users for the operator. Whether it is the PC era or the mobile era, users are fundamental, and traffic is king.
After sorting it out a bit, Simon instilled these ideas into Chen Qing.
After all, it is a small game, and the business environment is also different. Making money is secondary. Taking the opportunity to gather users is the key, including the promotion of Yifubao. All players who open Yifubao accounts will directly send some paid fertilizers in "Happy Farm". It is cost-effective.
One of the characteristics of the Internet economy is that you must first make users feel that you have taken advantage of it before you can make a lot of money.
In layman's terms, the free ones are the most expensive.
