Tokyo Video Game Tycoon.

She herself had a good relationship with Lorenzo.

"Well, not that much. I have about 30 billion US dollars in cash on hand right now. As for my other assets, I haven't calculated them because I don't really need to calculate such things."

Lorenzo: ? ? ?

Is this not a lot?

Lorenzo was also a little confused.

Are video games really that profitable?

They have such terrifying earning power, holding more than 30 billion US dollars in cash alone.

If we also include the company's assets, there's also... Facebook's 30% equity stake.

This guy... is actually a hidden millionaire?

Simply outrageous.

Zhu Youxing is only in his forties, right? At most fifty.

Moreover, Zhuyouxing only relied on one type of business to grow and expand. In contrast, Morgan Group later developed by diversifying its assets rather than relying solely on the operating system business, which made it even larger.

But Yusei, that guy, has only ever focused on video games.

Lorenzo felt a pang of envy and jealousy upon hearing this number.

If only I had known.

Had Morgan Group known that it would have also devoted itself to video game development, perhaps it would have had an even better future?

No, not necessarily. No one in the world understands video games better than Takeyusei.

There is only one Bamboo Star in this world, and only one Youxing Electronic Entertainment.

No other company can rival it in the field of video games.

Wandering Star is the ruler of the world, and Bamboo Wandering Star is the god of the world.

These two sentences are widely circulated among players.

But it's not too late now, even though I'm already quite old.

But Zhu Youxing suddenly approached him, wanting to explore a new field.

Lorenzo thought about it deeply.

He quickly understood Zhu Youxing's intention.

He wanted to acquire the gaming division in Mickford, but a direct acquisition would definitely be rejected, and he wouldn't be able to circumvent the US government's regulations.

But with the support of a highly respected person like Lorenzo, the company's development path in the United States will surely be smooth sailing.

Lorenzo had that kind of influence.

"But if the two of us start a company, won't we be found out very quickly?"

Zhu Youxing said, "That's only a matter of time, but as long as we can hold on until we acquire the Mikeford Games division, there won't be any problems."

"So you plan to keep your identity hidden until then? But that's also very difficult."

Zhu Youxing smiled slightly: "This is where my alternate account comes in handy. People might investigate and pay attention to a game company that is suddenly established, but if the game company has a famous person in the lead from the start, few people will be willing to investigate other details."

"small?"

Lorenzo was puzzled; he suddenly realized that Zhu Youxing seemed to have many secrets about him.

Now that things have come to this, Zhu Youxing no longer needs to hide anything from Lorenzo, since the two will be close partners. He might as well let Lorenzo act as a new insider as well.

Ten minutes later, Lorenzo adjusted his glasses and carefully examined the Battle.net platform backend on the tablet.

That's the data from Zhuyouxing's alternate account: 'Nintendo is the fucking world ruler.'

"This alternate account... you've been cultivating it and keeping it a secret all this time? How could you keep it hidden for so long?"

Lorenzo found it utterly unbelievable.

"There are actually not many people in the world who know about this so far. In the Japanese government, only high-ranking officials in the tax department know about it, and within the company, only my closest confidants know about it. I think it was an unintentional act at first."

"Unintentional? I even think you might have been planning this for a long time, but then again, that doesn't make sense. Your alternate account has been around for a long time, back when Mikeford didn't even have a gaming department."

Zhu Youxing asked, "How about it? Using this alternate account to set up a company, and then using your influence to get the US government to keep this secret as much as possible, shouldn't that be a big problem?"

"Of course, they will still give me that much face."

Lorenzo spoke decisively, and at the same time, a sense of anticipation suddenly arose within him.

"A new company, huh? That's quite interesting, especially since it's in the video game industry, which I've never been involved in before. But I'm wondering if it's a bit too abrupt to acquire the Mickford Games division just by setting up a new company?"

"That's true, so I've already made plans for the future."

At this moment, Zhu Youxing took out a plan that he had prepared on the plane.

"This is……"

"A new game development plan. This new game will use a completely new team, a team that has nothing to do with Youxing Electronic Entertainment. It doesn't need too many people, less than a hundred people are enough to basically complete the game development. And I estimate that it will only take three or four months to complete the early development of the game content."

Lorenzo didn't know much about the gaming industry, but he knew that popular games these days all required significant investment of money and manpower.

Indie games can sometimes become hits, but they can never completely ignite a buzz.

Only games of a large enough scale can truly ignite a buzz.

Such a large-scale game requires ample time and manpower.

If someone else had shown him this plan, Lorenzo would probably have just walked away.

He's not stupid; no one can fool him.

But the person in front of me is Zhu Youxing, the world's top game producer, a man hailed as the god of games.

He said that a game of a certain scale could be made with a team of 100 people in three or four months, which is somewhat believable.

So he carefully looked through the plan.

The heading of the project proposal reads: Fortnite Game Development Project Proposal.

Chapter 1190 True Face

Lorenzo didn't quite understand game development.

However, he still thinks highly of Zhu Youxing's vision in the gaming industry.

If Zhuyouxing intends to make this the first game for this new company, then it must be quite capable.

However, he still had some doubts, wondering if this one game alone could really generate a big response.

Lorenzo actually wanted to suggest that if all else failed, he could just put up more money and buy out Mickford's gaming division.

But after thinking about it, he realized that Zhu Youxing was determined to acquire Mikefu's game division, and he obviously wouldn't agree to let Lorenzo pay for it directly.

He glanced through Zhuyouxing's project proposal and learned that it appeared to be an online multiplayer game.

One hundred people participate in each round, and a single winner is determined at the end.

He simply couldn't understand where the fun in this game lay.

There are movies and TV shows similar to Battle Royale in this world, but no one has yet successfully adapted Battle Royale into a video game.

Before Zhuyouxing, some companies had tried similar gameplay, but most of them were just ordinary and hard to remember.

Lorenzo agreed to cooperate with Takeyusei after reading the proposal.

He was actually quite looking forward to seeing how far this new company would develop.

Takeyusei himself will participate in the company's operation and investment under the pseudonym "Nintendo is the World Dominator," holding 51% of the shares. Lorenzo will hold 30% of the shares, and the remaining 19% will be temporarily controlled by Takeyusei, to be used to recruit talent and attract more capital when the time is right.

Zhuyouxing will invest $100 million in funds and game development capabilities under the guise of a secondary account, while Lorenzo will invest $300 million. In this way, the company's basic foundation will be established.

Not long after, it was announced that the world's number one independent game developer had opened a company in the United States, with Lorenzo himself endorsing it.

While it's unlikely they'll receive help or support from the Morgan Group, they certainly won't have to worry about money in the early stages.

This news has also sparked a lot of discussion in the gaming community.

The world's number one independent game developer has finally embarked on the path of capital, and has begun to develop even more top-tier games.

Some players who already like Nintendo's world-dominating games are quite excited, wanting to see what the world's number one independent game producer's first major game will be like.

Meanwhile, the gaming division in Mikelford was in a state of decline.

But this is only the surface.

At this moment, many employees in the Mikelford gaming division had a burning gleam in their eyes.

Because in just one week, Yuxing Electronic Entertainment secretly contacted all of them, including even those employees of the Mikeford Games division who were initially undecided but resigned early.

As the current head of the game department, this person had mixed feelings because the people from Youxing Electronics Entertainment came to him and bluntly said that he was not suitable for leadership.

But Youxing Electronic Entertainment will also give him a suitable position, and he will definitely be well-off.

The person in charge was somewhat disappointed because his leadership position was about to disappear, but at the same time he was also somewhat relieved that at least he would have a good job next.

What I need to do now is to stabilize the team as much as possible, while also trying to cover things up in Mikefu.

They should present the illusion of decline to Mikeford as much as possible, waiting for Yuxing Electronic Entertainment to launch a takeover offer.

But... how long will it take?

a year?

Two years?

Even three or four years?

If it takes that long, he's not sure those employees will really have the patience to wait.

He can only do his best to maintain the situation for now.

Subsequently, Nintendo officially announced the game company founded by Lorenzo and the world's ruler.

They simply named it Nintendo.

This can also be seen as leaving traces of the previous world's ruler in this world.

As the first game, it naturally required a large-scale promotional campaign.
