Although in the previous life, there has been no conflict between MiHoYo's "Genshin Impact" and "Reincarnation".
But...there was no 'reincarnation' mobile game in my previous life!
And before the PC game of 'Reincarnation' was released.
MiHoYo's "Genshin Impact" was once popular all over the world, repeatedly encroaching on market share, and repeatedly topping a series of rankings, surpassing Honor of Kings and Game for Peace.
This also led to Tencent, which was in deep crisis, having to try every possible means to make the acquisition.
Even Tencent's boss Ma Huatian has repeatedly issued death orders that if miHoYo cannot be completely crushed, then the acquisition of miHoYo must be realized!
Under a series of long-term crazy output from Tencent, miHoYo, which had always maintained a rejection attitude and was disdainful of Tencent, finally had to bow to the super capital power.
It was precisely because of this humble attitude that this game company, which once swept the world and became the most profitable in the world, went into decline.
It's because soon after the acquisition of Genshin Impact by Tencent, Tencent took over the absolute right to speak. Although Genshin Impact has indeed entered a period of rapid development under the leadership of Tencent, and its profits have soared for several consecutive quarters, it is a pity that due to its ugly appearance, the life cycle of Genshin Impact has been shortened again and again. Three years after the acquisition by Tencent, its profits have fallen off a cliff...
In the end, Genshin Impact, whose lifespan was less than half of Honor of Kings and Game for Peace, fell, and was gradually abandoned by countless players.
Although in the three years after the Tencent acquisition, MiHoYo's revenue and profits did become the ceiling of the global mobile game industry, the price was that it overdrew the life cycle of "Genshin Impact" and cut off the space for sustainable development, resulting in such a mobile game masterpiece that people can't help but sigh and regret.
If it weren't for Tencent's acquisition, if Tencent's games hadn't intervened and taken the lead, "Genshin Impact" would never have fallen from grace so quickly. Maybe the profit in those three years would have been less, but at least the life cycle of "Genshin Impact" would have been much longer. In the extended life cycle, the revenue of "Genshin Impact" would definitely not be comparable to the three short years after Tencent's acquisition. Moreover, Genshin Impact would undoubtedly dominate the market share of the entire mobile game industry. Even if "Reincarnation" was released as a PC game, Genshin Impact would still be able to hold strong for a long time.
Unfortunately, a series of ugly and shameless operations from Tencent completely distorted the trajectory that "Genshin Impact" should have had, and it became the last phenomenal hit in the mobile game industry.
Now back to this life.
Ye Chen has regarded defeating miHoYo and "Genshin Impact" as an absolute necessity!
Because according to his understanding, 'Genshin Impact' will definitely impact the market share of 'Reincarnation'.
Even if we put aside the impact on market share, the 10 billion yuan in profit a year from "Genshin Impact" alone is enough for Ye Chen to ignore.
It is true that in the previous life, there was no "Reincarnation" mobile game, so "Genshin Impact" was so dazzling. In this life, with the emergence of the "Reincarnation" mobile game, "Genshin Impact" will definitely find it difficult to reproduce the glory of the previous life. As a result, it will inevitably fail to achieve the achievements of the previous life.
But no matter how inferior it is, the quality of "Genshin Impact" is there. Even if it cannot be compared with the highlights of the previous life, it will also beat all others except "Reincarnation". Even if the annual profit is halved compared to before, it is still billions.
However, compared to the profits, what Ye Chen cares about is that if miHoYo cannot be acquired or controlled by himself, it will inevitably fall into the hands of Tencent. Once Tencent takes over the relative equity of miHoYo, it will definitely bring a disruptive impact to "Samsara", and this impact will continue until the PC game of "Samsara" appears!
This is definitely not what Ye Chen wants to see!
Xu Yingjie, who had no idea that the 'original god' would be so ferocious in Mr. Ye's previous life, looked at Mr. Ye's rare serious attitude.
I couldn't help but be stunned.
If I remember correctly, "Genshin Impact" has just completed its public beta and has not yet been officially released.
Mr. Ye has concluded that MiHoYo's "Genshin Impact" will be a hit? Moreover, he even regards MiHoYo as the biggest competitor? This...isn't this a bit too much?
"Mr. Ye, are you so optimistic about 'Genshin Impact'? Although 'Genshin Impact' and 'Reincarnation' are of different types, they won't have an impact on us, right?" Xu Yingjie hesitated.
"Perhaps 'Genshin Impact' won't pose a threat to us, but according to my prediction and feeling, this will be a mobile game that beats all other games except 'Samsara'! I guess Tencent will definitely react to this. Tencent has always been interested in miHoYo. If they sense the potential of 'Genshin Impact', they will probably make a strategic acquisition of miHoYo at all costs to compete with us.
'Reincarnation', not to mention that we have a great grudge with Tencent Games! "Ye Chen said.
"Mr. Ye, are you saying that Tencent Games will initiate an acquisition of miHoYo?
attack?
As an industry insider, Xu Yingjie must know that Tencent wants to acquire miHoYo.
But I didn't expect Ye Chen to bring up this matter at this critical juncture.
"One hundred percent!" Ye Chen said without hesitation.
If I hadn't been reincarnated in this life, the "reincarnation" mobile game would not have appeared.
According to the trajectory of the previous life, although Tencent had always been eager to acquire miHoYo, it had been difficult to succeed because the two parties could not reach an agreement and Tencent could not offer conditions that would satisfy the other party. It was not until two years later that it broke through the board of directors of miHoYo and was able to take over.
However, the reason why Tencent could not offer conditions that satisfied the other party in the past life, which led to no significant progress in the acquisition, was ultimately because Tencent was weighing whether it was worth it or not. After all, Honor of Kings and Peace Elite in the past life are still the ceiling of the mobile game industry, and are still reaping huge profits.
But in this life, because of his rebirth, he had the mobile game "Samsara". Against the backdrop of the mobile game "Samsara" swallowing up the original market share of Tencent Games, and the previous setback of "Nirvana", Tencent Games paid a huge price. Just these two points, Tencent Games is undoubtedly in a situation of fighting a do-or-die battle. They urgently need a game that can fight against "Samsara". Whether it is independently developed or acquired, in order to fight against "Samsara" to save face and consolidate the dynasty, there is no doubt that they will be hysterical!
As for 'Genshin Impact' which has received a good response in the global public beta, Tencent will definitely acquire it at all costs, so as to fight against 'Reincarnation' to the end!
After listening to Ye Chen's confident statement that the probability was 100%.
Xu Yingjie was moved.
After all, he might underestimate miHoYo, but he will never underestimate Tencent.
Once "Genshin Impact" becomes really popular, and once the popular "Genshin Impact" really falls into the hands of Tencent, then "Reincarnation" will definitely be impacted to a considerable extent!
"Mr. Ye, then how do you think we should proceed with the acquisition?" Xu Yingjie said after swallowing.
