Chapter 314: Amateur Actor (Revised)

The first course was delivered to Masayoshi Kishimoto and Kyoko Fukada by the waiters. What to eat was not important to him.

There was nothing more important than being able to say at the climax of the night that he would not be able to accompany the other party to watch the grand fireworks display in the harbor area.

Masayoshi Kishimoto had practiced more than once in front of a mirror in order to show his sincerity. It was really challenging for an amateur actor to act in front of a professional actor.

“Is the food here to your liking?” Justice Kishimoto asked casually.

Kyoko Fukada displayed her charming signature smile and said, “It’s good!”

“That’s good.” Masayoshi Kishimoto was afraid that if she didn’t like it it would lead to a sharp decrease in the effect later on and said.

“Do you have any plans for the New Year’s vacation?” Kyoko Fukada asked with a sense of purpose.

When Masayoshi Kishimoto was asked by her, he naturally thought that next year was the year 2000. Not only was there the computer Y2K, but it was also the year that the Internet bubble started to burst.

A lot of his own investments had been placed on this industry. However, he did not have any excessive worries, after all, they are all first-class quality companies.

Not only that, they are beginning to step into the right track, into the main business to realize the profitability of the stage. The market value of Yahoo’s stock in his hands alone has reached an appalling 8.4 billion dollars. South Korea’s three major game companies also needless to say.

Actoz Soft’s “Legend” online game has been officially launched in South Korea. Although the response was mediocre, but in the near future, that is, in September 2001 will officially land on the Chinese mainland market, thus triggering a phenomenal situation, as usual, will not let Kishimoto justice less money.

The same year of 1999, “Stone Age” in Japan’s local public beta. It also received a mediocre response. So Masayoshi Kishimoto took the opportunity to acquire the shares of the development company and publisher JSS at a low price.

After he took over JSS, he took the initiative and boldly put forward the strategic concept of going out in the high-level meeting, with the intention of not limiting Stone Age to Japan’s local market.

This proposal was immediately opposed by the elders of JSS. In their opinion, an MMO that couldn’t even catch fire in Japan would be like looking for death if it went out.

However, no matter how much they insisted on opposing, they couldn’t help that Masayoshi Kishimoto had a lot of shares in his hands. After all, it is not one vote per person that speaks, but the one with the most shares.

Kishimoto justice is not stupid, can not be too stimulate some of them. If they come to a collective resignation, and is not to let their own basket of water in vain.

He both in order to ease the internal contradiction between each other, but also be able to show that he is not bent on, as if to make concessions, it is selected Taiwan as a test bed for overseas distribution.

If it worked, they would then move into the mainland China market in one fell swoop.The seniors of JSS Company fully accepted this plan of his.

They mistakenly thought that Justice Kishimoto had made certain concessions and compromises, so their repeated insistence would be unreasonable. No matter what, the other party was the company’s largest shareholder.

The bursting of the Internet bubble was both a danger and an opportunity. Dangerous side is indeed let a lot of Internet companies in batches of closure. Once let the Internet wealth myth is beginning to burst.

In this cruel survival of the fittest, but also let Kishimoto justice saw a once-in-a-lifetime good opportunity. Otherwise, they can not be a large number of low-priced sweep, will not be able to become the future of mainland China’s Internet company godfather.

In the year 2000, Tencent entered the most difficult period, when facing financial difficulties, it nearly sold the ICQ software developed to the Shenzhen Telecom Data Bureau at a price of 600,000 yuan, but it finally collapsed because of the price.

In other words, what it lacks the most is money, even for the sake of a mere 600,000 soft dollars can sell its main business ICQ software. As for Shenzhen Telecom Data Bureau, on the contrary, Tencent’s ICQ software is not worth 600,000 soft dollars.

After the historical opportunity passes by, there will be no more. Kishimoto justice saw this opportunity to “take advantage of people in danger”, so that the name of Tencent’s shares.

He neither want to buy wholesale, nor absolute control. If it is less small horse and other people, they buy is a shell company. His primary concern was to leave these people behind.

Therefore, at that time in the negotiation above will have to grasp a good degree, can let himself satisfied, also can let them satisfied, willingly continue to stay and continue to work.

At the beginning of the new year, he also personally went to Hangzhou to find the horse father to chat, after all, 20 million dollars has been given to the other side early on ready.

Masayoshi Kishimoto in order to play a good game of chess, from 1997 onwards, involved in the Internet and telecommunications investment. He has on yahoo, netease, tencent, alibaba, fenzhong media, shanda network and so on began to implement the implementation of the beginning of a step by step fall.

“I don’t want to go there, just stay at home and play Paradise, an online game. Do you play it too?” Justice Kishimoto found an excuse and said.

“I really didn’t expect you to play Paradise, an online game?” Kyoko Fukada said in surprise.

“This company was my initial investment, and also the reason why we met inside the elevator in the first place, causing you to spill a juice drink all over me.” Masayoshi Kishimoto picked up a past memory and said.

“It seems that it was the online game ‘Paradise’ that allowed us to get to know each other.” Kyoko Fukada guffawed.

“Isn’t that so? I remember very clearly that myself and President Tatsu Kanazawa of NCSoft Korea happened to finish signing the investment agreement inside the room he was staying in.” Justice Kishimoto said without haste.

“Then you shouldn’t have made much money. I’m a player in one of these!” Not only did Kyoko Fukada play it herself in her free time, but quite a few people around her were also playing the Dao.

“Thank you for your support.” Masayoshi Kishimoto was already taking a lot of dividends from Paradise. This first year was 4 billion yen.

It was a golden chicken that would lay golden eggs. For the next twenty years, or even longer inside, this one big IP would bring itself a steady stream of profits every year.

“For the New Year’s vacation, I’m not going anywhere either, let’s just play online games together okay!” Kyoko Fukada said with a sweet smile spreading across her face.

Masayoshi Kishimoto felt that the hole he had dug himself into had once again buried him. He was not able to backtrack and say no nowadays, “Sure!”

“At that time, you come to my house! I happen to have two computers inside my house. This way, it will also be convenient for us to make exchanges.” Kyoko Fukada was very proactive and said.

Kishimoto Masayoshi was both trying to maintain her good mood, but also not without starting to swing a bit in his heart. How could he bear to refuse when he was faced with a beautiful woman, a star, or a Japanese star that he was quite fond of in his previous life?

“OK.” Masayoshi Kishimoto said with a firm resolve after a little bit of consideration.

Kyoko Fukada’s mood could be described as excellent. She felt like she was a huge step closer to the throne of Mrs. Zaibatsu. In her mind, no kind of star was as comfortable as being a plutocrat’s wife.

Besides, it wasn’t like she was marrying an old man. She also had feelings for Masayoshi Kishimoto. The main thing was that he was young and golden, and his future would be brighter. She willingly wanted to be the woman behind a successful man.
