Chapter 212 The conversation has gone off topic

"Shall we cooperate again in another field?"

Lin Yao was surprised to hear Zhang Jianghu's proposal.

In addition to graphics cards, what other fields can the two sides cooperate in?

Can't they open a restaurant together?

But on second thought, Lin Yao thought of what Zhang Jianghu just mentioned about Bushnell's bankruptcy and reorganization. She frowned slightly and realized something.

... No way?

"Well, Bushnell and we have hardware-level cooperation. The GPU on their Bushnell Stars II was customized by us this time. We are one of their suppliers and also one of their shareholders."

Zhang Jianghu first explained his relationship with Bushnell, and then said: "Due to the tightening of money supply this time, Bushnell's financial situation has encountered major problems, and the sales of the new console have been frustrated, which eventually led to a chain reaction and bankruptcy.

After our Reflecta lobbying, Bushnell finally agreed to our proposed asset restructuring plan -

officially withdrawing from the console market, selling its entire console business in a package, and then transforming to make games."

"So, Reflecta wants to take over the other party's console business?" Lin Yao was silent for a moment and asked.

"Not just Reflecta, we want to take over its console business with Linmu Studio, and then jointly develop or change the current Bushnell Stars II console."

Zhang Jianghu smiled and said, "The two of us will also operate it in the future. Linmu Studio will be responsible for the game business, and we Reflect will be responsible for the sales and production of the console platform. What do you think? Mr. Lin?"

"..."

Lin Yao did not answer immediately, but fell into deep thought.

Sure enough.

Reflect wants to expand its business.

It must have been waiting for this opportunity for a long time, right?

As shareholders of Bushnell, when Bushnell approached Linmu Studio to make an exclusive, they didn't say a word. If we talk about close relationship, they are closer to Linmu Studio than Bushnell.

As shareholders, they should also be very clear about the bleak situation of Bushnell's new console.

Why let it go?

There is only one possibility, they want Bushnell to fall into crisis. They

should have been waiting for an opportunity.

Now Lin Yao suspects that their lobbying process may not be very glorious...

Seeing Lin Yao fall silent.

Zhang Jianghu was not in a hurry. He just thought she was considering it and continued, "Mr. Lin, I know you have some concerns about my sudden proposal to enter the console market, but this is indeed a good opportunity. You have also seen the outstanding performance of "Journey" on the console platform, which proves that this path is indeed feasible.

With your production level, plus the conditions of our Reflecta, and if supplemented by the Greenlight program, the new console is bound to be very popular. In addition, Linmu Financial Holdings' Koli Electronics can actually produce consoles on a OEM basis... and get the opportunity to transform and expand production.

After all, we can't always be a graphics card OEM, right? The scale is too limited."

After listening to Zhang Jianghu's words.

Lin Yao finally spoke up. She asked in a joking tone, "Has Reflecta been waiting for this opportunity?"

"You can't say that we have been waiting for a long time."

Zhang Jianghu smiled heartily, "It's just that the game market has been surging recently. We at Reflecta have also seen the potential in it, so we want to invest in this area. In addition, we have also seen the quality of the Xingyao series graphics cards under Linmu Financial Holdings. They are very good. We discussed this plan internally and felt that it was feasible.

Mr. Lin, you see, the three of us have our own advantages. Linmu Studio has advantages in games. We at Reflecta can handle the upstream and downstream supply chain of hardware. The problem of insufficient production capacity can be made up by Linmu Financial Holdings. Linmu Financial Holdings can also make up for the problem of a single product line. We don't have to compete directly. If the game console is successful, it will be good for us. After all

, although we at Reflecta are jealous of the game market, we dare not compete directly with Linmu Studio."

Zhang Jianghu was not lying.

It was indeed not their original purpose to get involved in the game market.

This idea only came up recently.

As for why this idea came up, it was related to Linmu Studio.

As a partner of Linmu Studio, Reflecta has a deeper understanding of the speed at which Linmu Studio makes money than the outside world.

They are even more aware of how much the game can promote the graphics card market.

Especially after the overseas "Breakout" event.

But the money is earned by Linmu Studio. In order to let Linmu Studio promote the graphics card through games, Reflecta has also paid a lot of price...

After all, Linmu Studio is not their subsidiary, and it has a lot of ideas.

Under such circumstances, they naturally came up with the idea of ​​getting involved in the game industry.

However, Reflecta does not have any game genes, so it is a bit difficult for them to make games.

So in the end, under the proposal of Zhang Jianghu, who has an increasingly high status within the group, such a plan was proposed.

Don't make games, but make host platforms.

Games are not possible, but they still have the ability to integrate the supply chain at the hardware level, and they are very strong.

Of course.

Making hosts is just the first step. Zhang Jianghu did not say some subsequent goals.

It's hard to say.

"You are too flattering. Reflecta can definitely make games."

Lin Yao shook her head and said politely. During the conversation, she did not forget to think about the feasibility of the other party's proposal.

"I'm not flattering you, I'm telling you the truth. What do you think, Mr. Lin? Do you think our proposal is feasible? Can we cooperate?" Zhang Jianghu denied it, and then asked very sincerely.

"I'll think about it, but I'm more concerned about another thing now... Bushnell went bankrupt, what about the two exclusive games on their new console?"

Lin Yao still didn't give a definite answer, but suddenly asked about the exclusive games.

Bushnell was a bit miserable.

The game video at the press conference couldn't even last 20 minutes.

Compared with the other two companies, there are very few exclusive games.

But there are still some. There are

still two. After all, the current console strategy still relies on exclusives to attract users to buy consoles. If there are no exclusives, what's the point of making a console.

The two exclusive games on the Bushnell console platform are just not well-known by the producer, so they don't receive much attention.

It is precisely for this reason that Bushnell wants Linmu Studio to make exclusives.

In addition, although the sales of these two exclusive games are average, they have a good reputation, which is mainly limited by the weak platform.

Zhang Jianghu was stunned, not knowing why Lin Yao asked this: "Exclusive games? Oh, because Bushnell couldn't pay the sales deposit, the exclusive agreement was terminated, but we..."

"Oh?"

Lin Yao's eyes lit up, and then she interrupted Zhang Jianghu and asked: "Then can we put these two games on our Vaporwave game platform? Our Vaporwave game platform has a lot of traffic recently, and we can provide certain support for them to complete the porting..."

Zhang Jianghu: "..." "

We were talking about consoles, right?

Why did we suddenly turn to the Vaporwave game platform?
