Fang Daddy is in hand, I have the world

Chapter 879 Sorry I Can't Do It!

Late night, Las Vegas, Pyramid Hotel.

Hall drank in a large suite with two people of similar age. Romanee-Conti, this is the red wine that Hall has treasured for a long time, and today he took it out to entertain two old friends.

"Hall, you should talk to Gao and let him express his support for Cabot," an old man said slowly, shaking the wine glass in his hand.

Hall slowly shook his head and said, "Portolo, it's difficult. He is very wary of us, which is inseparable from our continuous suppression of some Chinese companies."

"His small one-man attack submarine turned out, so our aircraft carrier can only wander around the port now. This grievance is not so easy to resolve."

"Within our group, and within Parker's group, there have always been voices to clean him up."

"This makes him very uneasy. If it were me, I would not be at ease either."

"The ecological system of renewable resources has been upgraded in China and Europe, but we have not done anything at all."

"I called Emerson, the general manager of the American region of Renewable Resources, and his reply was to wait for the notification from the headquarters. Without the approval of the headquarters, the upgrade will not be carried out for the time being."

"It can be seen that he is also on guard against us."

Hall said these words slowly. It is not so easy to further cooperate with Gao Jin. First of all, some people in the group do not agree.

"A bunch of people with no vision"

"Nowadays, there is no point in competing for hegemony. It is imperative to vigorously develop space technology and enter the starry sky, and focus on the earth."

"madness!"

Another old man said this very unhappily, and Hall and Portolo both nodded, approving the old man's words.

Now it is time to focus on the research and development of space technology at all costs. When the United States has mastered space, things on earth will be solved with a wave of hands.

Such a simple matter, but these people are entangled endlessly for personal interests.

"Daley, I think you need to take action. At least discuss with the elders of the other party to suppress the moths in our two groups."

"At this stage, we must suppress them and make it difficult for them to come on stage and speak out, otherwise, the good situation will be ruined!"

Portolo watched Daly say these words very seriously, and realized that some people in the team were out of order, so let them continue to make trouble.

Maybe it will cause new problems. At that time, a lot of energy in the United States will be occupied by these stupid things.

"Let's discuss this matter later. It is useless to expect one or two people to unite. Only when most of the two groups participate can this matter be resolved."

"Hall, is Gao still in San Francisco?" Daly looked at Hall and asked.

"I just received the news today that Gao has arrived in Irvine, Los Angeles, and is inspecting Activision Blizzard. I really don't know what a game company has to inspect."

Hall opened his mouth and came, very clear about Gao Jin's itinerary, including the news that Gao Jin hit Irvine today.

"Don't underestimate the game company, I got the news"

"The profit of the game company under the Protoss Group has increased significantly for two consecutive years. Last year, the profits handed over to the Protoss Group reached 26 billion US dollars."

"Sometimes I really admire Gao Jin. With so many companies under his umbrella, they basically maintain high profits. Is there anyone on earth who can play business better than him?"

Portolo said these words from the side, and Hall and Daly were taken aback after hearing it. They made so much profit. Are there any mistakes?

"What about Activision Blizzard? How much profit did it make last year?" Hall followed up with a question.

"Activision Blizzard did not turn over its profits last year. According to the organizational structure of Protoss Group, its subsidiaries must maintain sufficient cash reserves. Activision Blizzard's goal is 500 billion U.S. dollars."

"Until this goal is achieved, the profits cannot be handed over"

"Without profit, CEO Ruiz has no year-end bonus!"

Portolo said this with a smile. Last year, Activision Blizzard’s profit was more than 30 billion US dollars, but there was no bonus for such an achievement. Ruiz, the CEO, is also unlucky enough.

What's more, Activision Blizzard fired so many people, everyone who was fired needs to be compensated, and the cost of this alone is as high as 20 billion US dollars.

"You underestimated him, Portolo." Daly shook his head and said these words, Hall and Portolo both turned to look at Daly.

"Gentlemen, I got a piece of news from the Celestial Dynasty that the Protoss Group and its subsidiaries started secret layoffs the year before last."

"I couldn't see the reason at the time, so why don't you look at it now?"

"Gao Jin is young, but his layout is very far-reaching."

When Daly said this, Portolo and Hall stopped talking, and both understood Daly's meaning.

Protoss Group and its subsidiaries have secretly laid off employees for more than two years. Now, the world economy has begun to decline, and life is hard for everyone.

Many companies want to lay off employees but are organized by the government to force them not to lay off employees, and each of them has a heavy burden.

The Protoss Group does not have this situation. The number of staff has decreased and the cash reserves have increased. When the world economy collapses, it is estimated that the Protoss Group will start the rhythm of buying, buying and buying.

Portolo frowned and said, "Why do these international giants have such a sensitive sense of smell, even more sensitive than the government, this is unscientific!".

"It's very scientific!"

"All government departments are busy fighting for fame and fortune. No one cares about how the world economy is going. Anyway, they are guaranteed income in drought and flood."

"Another one, CAI, FBB, and other departments all have their own small treasury, to put it bluntly"

"Even if the federal government doesn't allocate funds, they can easily run for a month without collapsing!"

Hall is very clear about what the disadvantages are, but he is powerless to change this point. Anyone who tries to change will end up being stigmatized by the media and then investigated by the relevant departments.

Most of the energy is spent on ineffective internal friction.

"This kind of thing cannot be changed overnight, so let's not discuss it"

"I heard that the Panama Economic Forum purchased a batch of Protoss translators this time. Is it true?" Daly asked.

Portolo shook his head to show he didn't know, and Hall nodded, acknowledging that it was true.

"This was proposed by the Panamanian Organizing Committee. Protoss Group temporarily produced a batch for the Panama Economic Forum. At present, people from Starlight Research Group have set up servers in Panama."

"It can be completed before the official opening of the forum. The instant translator is also being produced in a certain factory in China, and it will be airlifted to the Panama Forum by then."

"Anyone who comes to participate in the meeting can buy it freely, you can buy it or not"

"I heard that there are two types of pricing. The basic version is priced at $350, and the deluxe version is priced at $[-]. I don't know the exact cost."

“The service charge is twenty euros a month”

Hall told everything he knew, and Portolo and Daly nodded slowly. Needless to say, Protoss Group made a lot of money this time.

"Hall, you can talk to Gao Jin when you participate in the forum, and you can promise him that we will protect his investment in the United States so that he doesn't have to worry about the future." Daly looked at Hall and said this seriously sentence.

"Daley, you can't promise this matter alone, I must get the authorization of the committee"

"You all know Gao's temperament. If something unpleasant happens after I promise, I will end badly, as long as he spends a mere million dollars"

"Many Americans will come to kill me and my family, the risk is too great, sorry I can't do it!"

Hall simply refused. He would not do anything without a clear statement about this kind of thing, otherwise, he would be finished.

Daly nodded with a smile after listening to Hall's words, and sighed secretly in his heart. Unexpectedly, now even Hall began to doubt his own words.

The integrity between people is really gone.

"Portolo and I will return to Washington tomorrow. You will be officially authorized by the committee during the forum. Our priority is to enter space"

"Everything else can be discussed!" Daly said these words very seriously, not at all joking.

Not only Daly, but many people have the same opinion as Daly. With the current level of countries on the earth, it is already very difficult for the United States to maintain its original domineering.

Even if it succeeds, it will drag the United States to hell.

There is only one way to save the hegemony, change the track and enter space. When the United States can dominate space one day, all the problems currently facing will no longer be problems.

The three of them drank red wine and chatted for a long time before it was over, and they went back to their rooms to rest.

After a night passed, Gao Jin got up and went to the gym to exercise. After the exercise, he took a shower, changed his clothes, went to the restaurant to have breakfast, and then set off with others.

Visit Activision Blizzard headquarters in Irvine.

Today's Activision Blizzard headquarters is different from usual. Ruiz has started to act since he learned that Gao Jin was going to inspect.

After the ground was cleaned, it was washed with water again, and the exterior walls of various buildings were all cleaned.

All kinds of sculptures have been cleaned and maintained by professionals, and the flowers, plants and trees have also been sorted out, which is very neat.

The parking lot has also been rectified, random parking is strictly prohibited, and all employees must be neatly dressed and wear professional attire.

After Gao Jin arrived in Los Angeles yesterday, Ruiz even notified the various departments to hold a meeting, clearly telling everyone that the boss will come to inspect tomorrow.

If there is a problem in that department and the boss is not satisfied, just leave!
The economy is not good at the moment, and no one dares to be careless. Today, all the staff arrived at the company on time, and no one ate, including Ruiz.

Knowing that Gao Jin's convoy would arrive at the company in about 10 minutes, Ruiz led the management team to the parking lot and waited. It didn't take long for everyone to arrive at the parking lot before Gao Jin's convoy arrived.

When Gao Jin got out of the car, Ruiz greeted him, shook hands with Gao Jin, and then introduced the company's senior management to Gao Jin, and Gao Jin shook hands with everyone one by one.

Then, they walked towards the office building together, and first went to the large conference room to listen to Ruiz's work report.
