Chapter 145

Helipad next to Malibu sea view villa, in Black Hawk helicopter.

Tracy shook his glass in his left hand and put the phone in his ear in his right hand, listening to Bauer William report to him on the progress of the acquisition of blizzard.

"Well... Uncle Bauer, you can decide these things. If you can lower the price, try to lower the price. But it doesn't matter if the price difference between 100 million and 200 million. Just win Blizzard as soon as possible.

I won't go if I sign the contract. I'm going to Silicon Valley these days. I'll talk about it when I come back. I hope I'll hear your good news when I come back... Well, OK, bye. "

After hanging up the phone, Tracy smiled with satisfaction. Things went better than he thought, and Vivendi did intend to sell their game department as a whole.

Now Blizzard Entertainment has such a big problem, they are even more anxious. Bauer William took the team to propose the acquisition, and the other party immediately started the negotiations without much hesitation.

Bauer's offer is not high, only about 500 million, which is to test Vivendi's bottom line.

In the past, it was estimated that Vivendi immediately became angry and stopped the negotiation, but this time it was very calm. After a day's consideration, their team directly raised the price to $1 billion.

In the next few days, it entered the stage of wrangling. The price in Bauer's mind was about 700 million, and the other party was biting 800 million.

Both sides know how much Blizzard is worth. If it weren't for the overall acquisition of Vivendi's game department, the other party's offer would be a little high just for the acquisition of Blizzard Entertainment.

However, the price is not high in Tracy's heart. According to the development trend of Blizzard, "world of Warcraft" this classic online game is born, it will only take a year or two to earn back this money.

Not to mention the market value after the blizzard. After the merger with Activision, the value of Blizzard soared dozens of times, and the future market value was as high as 50 billion.

This deal, more than one or two hundred million, is really nothing. How can we make a steady profit without losing.

Tracy took a sip of wine and glanced at two girls who were chattering and excited.

Rossi and Alice "Silicon" represent local enterprises engaged in the semiconductor industry and computer industry for processing and manufacturing high concentration silicon. The word "Valley" is taken from the valley of San Clara.

At that time, silicon valley was the southern end of San Francisco Bay, along the No. 101 American aisle, from Monroe Park and palato through mountain view city and Sunnyvale to Santa Clara, the center of Silicon Valley.

Anyway, after the emergence of this term, it gradually replaced the original place name fruit forest here.

Tracy and his party set out at noon, about two or three hours of flight, and arrived at the parking airport in Santa Clara County at three o'clock in the afternoon.

The plane landed smoothly. Tracy slowly stepped off the plane. Joe green, who had been waiting here for a long time, came to him with a smile. Before he could speak, he gave him a hug.

"Man, you're here at last. Welcome to Silicon Valley."

"Thank you, Joe. It seems that you're doing well here." Tracy looked at Joe. He hadn't seen him for months. He was obviously a little fat and had a beard on his face.

Tracy patted his belly slightly bulging to the strategy with his hand and joked, "it seems that the food here is very to your appetite."

George rolled his eyes and said, "if you look at pizza, hamburgers, French fries and coke every day, you will get fat."

With that, George didn't wait for Tracy to continue to speak and put his arm around his shoulder. "Don't talk about me, man. You don't know how bad life is here. Tell me about you, I read your report every day. I'm curious. Has your girlfriend been confirmed?"

Joe's appearance has changed, but his character has not changed. He is still so gossip. As soon as I received Tracy, I couldn't help prying into each other's privacy.

Tracy pushed away Joe with an obscene smile. "You care so much about my private life. You should be a paparazzi. It's a talent to be the CEO of the new potato."

"Hahaha, you just know that working for you is my part-time job." Joe replied impolitely.

Tracy ignored him, turned to Chris Hughes next to him, came to him and hugged him. "It's hard for you, Chris. Joe praised you on the phone."

Tracy didn't have much contact with the Harvard senior, but he knew that the other party had made greater contributions to the new potato than Joe and him.

Chris is a little thin and looks very gentle with glasses. After hugging Tracy, he looked at Tracy with a smile, "it's not hard, but I'm riveted hard, waiting for the equity in the company's reward pool."

Pushing the glasses on the bridge of his nose, before Tracy encouraged him, he continued, "I'm as curious as Joe. Who is your star girlfriend? Did you come with you today?"

Tracy smiled bitterly. "Why are you as boring as Joe?"

Joe came over and put a hand on Tracy's shoulder. "Man, it's not boredom, it's envy. Chris and I envy your damn life. You don't know, it's hard to find a hot girl to talk to in Silicon Valley."
