Tokyo: Being coveted by my wife, I just want to play games

Dongchuan Che attaches great importance to the balance of interest distribution within and outside the company, and the employee benefits of Shengguang Society are among the highest in the world.

But the main reason why Dongchuan Che did this was not because he was a "conscientious entrepreneur", but because he wanted to make the Holy Light Society a century-old enterprise. If he wanted to make the company a century-old enterprise, the distribution of benefits must be as balanced as possible.

Only by doing this will more talents be willing to join the Holy Light Society and more talents be willing to stay in the Holy Light Society, allowing the Holy Light Society to produce more excellent works and ultimately extend the life of the company.

This is true for both companies and industries.

Although in his opinion, the e-sports industry is unlikely to become a century-old industry like football. After all, compared with football, e-sports not only has a lower penetration rate and a higher threshold for acceptance, but also

The e-sports industry's monetization capabilities are indeed far behind football.

Not to mention the broadcasting fees, just in terms of ticket prices, football can crush e-sports.

E-sports games are not inherently very suitable for watching live, but for football, top European teams like Barcelona and Real Madrid sell more than 50,000 tickets for a single game.

Without considering scalpers, the highest price of a ticket for a top team match, not counting VIP boxes, is close to 500 euros. In other words, for one match, these clubs can earn tens of millions of euros from tickets.

This number is very exaggerated, and ticket sales are only basic income for the European football industry. In addition, the players' various advertising endorsements are also a big source of income.

Unlike the e-sports industry, the football industry can also drive the development of industries such as footwear, clothing, and beverages.

The interest chain involved in European football is large enough, so the capital that does not want European football to fall is large enough. When the capital behind the European football industry is large enough, the life of the European football industry will be longer. What is interesting is that if this logic is reversed

The reason why these investors are willing to stand behind the European football industry is that the European football industry has shown strong potential. The reason why European football has great potential is that European football clubs and football management agencies have planned a relatively reasonable profit distribution mechanism and talent training mechanism, which has led to countless parents willing to let their children try to follow the path of football. The influx of more talents will play better games and attract more audiences, thus making the prospects of the entire industry more open.

The big capital that has made the most profits in the entire industry is willing to reinvest the money into the market to expand reproduction, allowing ordinary practitioners at the grassroots level to earn more income and allowing more talents to flock to this industry. This is the real virtuous cycle.

There is no doubt that from the current perspective, the future of the e-sports industry will not be as large as football, and even basketball cannot touch it. But this does not prevent Dongchuan Che from hoping to make e-sports a "50-year industry" with a virtuous cycle. And his idea just hit the hearts of President Bao and Executive Director Kuriyama.

"Brother Dongchuan is really amazing! I didn't make a mistake about you, brother! So, as long as the e-sports game of your company becomes popular, I will take care of everything in China for you!"

Night Tokyo, a membership-only luxury club in Ginza.

In the private room, the senior executives of Shengguang Society, Shanhe Group and SATE were singing and drinking. In the middle of the sofa, Bao Zong, who was sitting on Dongchuan Che's right, picked up the wine glass and clinked it with Dongchuan Che's in a heroic manner.

He had drunk quite a bit of wine tonight and his face was flushed, but at this moment his eyes were full of excitement and anticipation!

Yes, excitement and anticipation.

To be honest, as the second in command of Shanhe Group and a "red seedling" born and raised in Yanjing, the e-sports industry was not considered too important in his eyes. But that was before.

Things are different now.

On the one hand, he really thinks that Dongchuan Che is a very capable young man. He is optimistic about Dongchuan Che's future to [rectify] the e-sports industry. He also thinks that the e-sports industry can be expanded in Dongchuan Che's hands. But the other more important reason is

When he met Dongchuan Che, Dongchuan Che was only twenty-five or twenty-six, and he was less than fifty years old.

Now, four or five years later, Dongchuan Che is already thirty years old and ready to become a father. And his father Baozong has also gone from being fifty years old and knowing his destiny to being an old man who is almost sixty and ready to retire.

People of different ages think and care about different things.

It's like when young people in their early twenties talk about marriage, they all have an indifferent attitude, as if it doesn't matter whether they get married or not. But if they are in their early thirties, even if they still say "it doesn't matter whether they get married or not", the pressure in their hearts is definitely different from when they were around twenty years old.

This is the change in thinking that comes with age.

Mr. Bao is over fifty years old this year. When he first met Dongchuan Che, he was less than fifty years old.

This age may seem old, but in fact, for the top executives of a large enterprise with a red background like Shanhe Group, it is actually a golden age, in the prime of life, with great potential. But now four or five years have passed, compared to the ambitions he had when he first met Dongchuan Che, he is now more concerned about the future of his children.

In a few years, when Mr. Bao retires due to age, how will their family maintain influence within the Shanhe Group? Or to put it bluntly, how will they let their children take over? This is what he is most concerned about at the moment.

Although Mr. Bao's family owns a large number of shares in Shanhe Group, Shanhe Group is a listed company after all. As a major shareholder, he only holds more than 10% of the shares, unlike Dongchuan Che who has the final say in the Holy Light Society.

Of course, Mr. Bao still has great power within the Shanhe Group, and it is easy for him to arrange for various relatives and friends to work in the company, but his position is the second-in-command of the group.

There shouldn't be too many people eyeing his position, as the competition would be too fierce.

Therefore, even if he is one of the major shareholders, if he wants to promote his son to this position, he still needs his son to have enough achievements, not to mention that Mr. Bao has more than one child.

In his opinion, if Dongchuan Che can really develop the e-sports industry, then he can just let his children enter this industry and be responsible for the e-sports business of Shanhe Group in China. This will be an important bargaining chip for their family when negotiating within the Shanhe Group, and their family members will also be able to rely on this industry to obtain performance within the company.

Paving the way for their children and future generations is what most parents care about the most, and so does Bao Zong. Therefore, when he heard Dongchuan Che talk about the grand blueprint in his mind, Bao Zong also became excited.

but.

Things are not that simple.

Shanhe Group is indeed one of Dongchuan Che's most suitable partners in China, but

On the one hand, Dongchuan Che is no longer the potential stock that had to fly to China in person and be [assessed] by others. The Dongchuan family is now a wealthy family. In addition, Dongchuan Che has outstanding abilities and talents. He can make money in almost any industry. There are too many companies that want to cooperate with the Dongchuan family.

On the other hand, Dong Chuan Che's cooperation with Shanhe Group does not mean that he must cooperate with Mr. Bao's family. Therefore, if Mr. Bao retires and his power and influence weaken, even if Dong Chuan Che does not change the cooperative company, he can find other stronger partners within Shanhe Group.

Thinking of this, Mr. Bao was excited and a little worried at the same time.

Knowing what the old man was thinking, Dongchuan Che raised his glass and clinked it with him, then clapped his hands and winked at Mito Yohei who was waiting on the sofa next to him. The latter understood and quickly brought a few exquisite packaging boxes.

Putting down the wine glass, Dongchuan Che handed the box to Mr. Bao, then looked at Mrs. Bao who had just returned from singing next to Mr. Bao, and said with a smile: "Mr. Bao is doing things, I, Dongchuan, am naturally at ease. By the way, Fujiko called me a few days ago and told me that when she went to China last time, she felt very comfortable using the skin care products that your wife gave her. But she is in the United States recently to help Xiaokui deal with the concert, and she can't come back, so this time she also specially asked me to hand the gift to your wife."

"Oh~ President Fuyukawa, you are so polite."

"Haha, brother Dongchuan, you are so polite! Come on, let's have another drink! We won't go home until we are drunk tonight!"

After receiving the gift box, Mrs. Bao, who was already a little tipsy, showed a look of surprise on her face. Next to her, Mr. Bao smiled even more. He picked up the wine glass and laughed and drank another glass with Dong Chuan Che.

Both parties are super rich, so it is not difficult for them to give each other a plane or a yacht, let alone skin care products and jewelry. But the gift is not important, what is important is that the gift itself is a statement of attitude.

Unexpectedly, Dongchuan Che did not "take advantage of his own illness to kill him". Mr. Bao was in a very good mood and drank faster and faster.

Looking at Mr. Bao, who was a little drunk and was trying to force him to have sex, Dong Chuan Che didn't know whether to laugh or cry.

"Having a child really does give me a soft spot. Is this what they call being too concerned and becoming confused?"

He clinked glasses with Mr. Bao again, and Dong Chuan Che, with the microphone stuffed into his hand by Mr. Bao's wife, smiled drunkenly and shook his head.

Honestly, Mr. Bao's concerns are reasonable. Dong Chuan Che now has the confidence to refuse to continue cooperating with Mr. Bao and look for a more powerful partner. But the problem is.

Is it necessarily a good thing for Dongchuan Che to abandon Mr. Bao's family and look for a more powerful partner?

Not necessarily.

Mr. Bao's family is very influential in the Chinese region and also holds a large number of shares in the Shanhe Group.

Therefore, even if Mr. Bao retires due to age, resulting in a decrease in the voice of Mr. Bao's family within the Shanhe Group,

On the one hand, a lean camel is bigger than a horse. Even if the power of the Bao family in Shanhe Group is reduced, they can still ensure the stable and efficient operation of Shengguang Society's business in China in the future. They are just temporarily at a disadvantage in the current stage of the internal struggle of the group.

On the other hand, Dongchuan Che's current financial strength and influence can help Bao's family gain the right to speak in this area.

Nowadays, there are too many people who want to cooperate with Dongchuan Che. In recent years, Shanhe Group has made a lot of money by acting as the domestic agent for projects such as "FGO", "World of Warcraft" and GOGO platform. Even if other shareholders of Shanhe Group want to squeeze out Mr. Bao, they certainly do not want the group to be separated from Dongchuan Che.

Therefore, as long as Dong Chuan Che continues to cooperate with the Bao family, even if Bao retires, he Dong Chuan Che can still make up for some of the Bao family's lack of influence and voice in the Shanhe Group. This also means that the Bao family has a certain degree of dependence on Dong Chuan Che, and as long as there is dependence, it will be the passive party in the negotiation!

In the future, Dongchuan Che will be able to gain a stronger negotiating position when negotiating with the Bao family!

The company's business in China will not be affected, and at the same time, the company will be able to gain more voice. For Dong Chuan Che, this is a hundred benefits with no harm.

Thinking of this, Dong Chuan Che, who had just taken a big gulp of beer, looked at Mr. Bao with some emotion. Mr. Bao, as a man who has been in the business world for so many years and has been in society for so many years, Dong Chuan Che doesn't believe that he, a shrewd man, can't see this not-so-obscure interest. But it is obvious that once a person has a soft spot after middle age, it is indeed easier to be manipulated.
