This time the US subprime mortgage crisis will be Li Zetian's last chance to make a fortune with the help of his past life memories, so this opportunity is extremely precious!
As long as he is rich, who cares if he floods~
At this time, American banks, securities, venture companies, and investors were all overwhelmed by the bubble of American real estate. The subprime mortgage crisis broke out, and they suffered the consequences themselves. No one could blame others.
No greed, no harm.
Li Zetian and Dongfang Yuqin were busy planning their arrangements. By the end of October, they had prepared US$750 billion, and there will be more in the future. In addition to buying CDS products from insurance companies and mortgage credit default swaps, these funds are also prepared to short the stock market and buy companies at low prices. In addition, it is Li Zetian's own company used to deal with the crisis.
…
This morning, Li Zetian came to Dongfang Yuqin's room. She was about to go out to do business when Li Zetian stopped her.
"Give yourself a day off today, darling!"
"The signs of the subprime mortgage crisis are becoming more and more obvious, and I still have a lot of things at hand."
"I'm not in a hurry for one day. I see that you are tired these days, and you are all haggard." Li Zetian stretched out his right hand and gently stroked Dongfang Yuqin's face. She is a woman in her forties, and her skin is well maintained. Mother, the charm is still there.
Dongfang Yuqin showed a smile. Under her long eyelashes, a pair of beautiful eyes were as gentle as water, very beautiful. She shook her head and said, "Dear, I'm not tired~"
"Have a rest if you are not tired!" Li Zetian said firmly, but Dongfang Yuqin really felt Li Zetian's concern from it.
"Okay." She nodded, and immediately kissed Li Zetian's forehead.
Li Zetian smiled at this time: "I remember that the epic movie "StarCraft: Uprising" co-operated by Blizzard and Disney is about to be released. I, you, and our daughter Yue'er went to the movie together, and then took Yue'er to the cinema. Go to Disneyland."
Dongfang Yuqin was moved when she heard the words.
"Well, whatever you say, I will listen to you!" Dongfang Yuqin rested her head on Li Zetian's shoulder like a bird. Since this family is different from ordinary families (Li Zetian has two wives), she does not spend much time with Li Zetian and their daughters.
At this time, as the chairman and charity ambassador of LY Charity Foundation, Yu Jingqiu was doing charity activities in Africa.
Speaking of which, if you don't do charity, you really don't know how many people on earth will starve to death, how many people will die of disease, and how many children will not be able to go to school in a year. This is a ridiculous world. The world is really chilling just thinking about it.
Star Wars is a Blizzard classic with tens of millions of fans. The movie has not been released yet, and the movie tickets for the first three days have already been sold out.
On the evening of November 1, Li Zetian, Dongfang Yuqin and his youngest daughter Li Yueer had dinner at home and went to a nearby cinema.
Of course, Li Zetian's home also has a cinema, but going to the cinema will give you a more movie-watching atmosphere, and at the same time, you can see from the side whether the movie is accepted and liked by the audience.
Wearing sunglasses, no one found Li Zetian's identity.
Walking into the cinema, it was dark inside, and no one knew his identity.
Xiao Yue'er sat between her parents, holding popcorn in her hands, her little face excited and happy. This was the first time she came to the cinema to watch a movie, and there were many people around.
"Dad, is the movie about to start?"
"Well, it's about to start." Li Zetian reached out and touched her little head, then nodded with a smile.
The screen suddenly lit up, and after a while, the movie was officially broadcast.
"The human colony Mar-Sara is in crisis in the Koprulu sector, far away from Earth. A group of alien zerg, controlled by the will of the mother hive, trying to devour all life, has invaded the planet on a massive scale..."
At the beginning of the movie, accompanied by a deep narration, a distant human colonized planet was ravaged by the Zerg, and an unprecedented war broke out between the two sides!
This amazing special effect, this magnificent scene, is simply an audio-visual feast.
The audience was instantly hooked.
Next, the human-colonized planet was invaded and the Zerg began to devour all life. In order to survive, human beings fought back and launched an uprising, and a magnificent story of uprising began, touching the heartstrings of countless people every moment...
By the end of the movie, there is no doubt that the old part is that the humans finally defeated the Zerg and won.
"Oh, it's so beautiful! Fabulous!"
"The special effects are shocking, the story is touching, and it's a classic!"
"Better than Star Wars!"
"Blizzard is really amazing!"
"… "
The audience applauded and were very satisfied with the film.
Seeing everyone's reaction, Li Zetian felt that he did the right thing when he proposed to let Blizzard and Disney co-produce the movie. The success of "StarCraft: Uprising" has allowed Blizzard to walk out a new path, which is of great significance. Creating and operating IP will be the key development direction of Blizzard in the future!
There is no empire on which the sun never sets.
For game companies, if they can't make excellent game works all the time, they will eventually decline.
Games developed by Blizzard can't be popular all the time.
In the previous life, at least in Li Zetian's view, Blizzard has fallen behind a bit. Compared with the popularity of Blizzard's development of games, "StarCraft 2" and "Overwatch" can only be included in the level of unpopularity. .
At this moment, a smile slowly appeared on Li Zetian's face, he took Xiao Yue'er's little hand, and Dongfang Yuqin quietly left the cinema with the crowd...
…
"StarCraft: Uprising" has a huge reputation, and critics and media have praised it.
A week later, the North American box office hit $210 million, shocking everyone and setting off a wave of game-based movies. Investors and film companies are very bullish on this.
This week, the market value of almost all game companies has risen sharply.
In mid-November, taking advantage of "StarCraft: Uprising", Blizzard released a new game "StarCraft Online", which is the second online game released by Blizzard after "World of Warcraft".
The game, as soon as it was released, was hugely popular, and it was a complete mess!
Overnight, the number of game downloads on the Battle.net platform reached 5 million, which is amazing!
"StarCraft Online" can carry out various activities in the game's sandbox universe, including mining, industrial manufacturing, scientific research, financial trade, exploration and archaeology. The types of activities that players can engage in increase with the learning of related skills. Even if the player is not online, the learning of skills in the game will continue at any time.
It is worth mentioning that this game is co-operated by Blizzard and the Cronos Industrial Artificial Intelligence Laboratory. The game has a large number of NPCs (non-player-controlled characters), and these NPCs all have super-high artificial intelligence, and they are working with them. When communicating, trading, or even developing wars, it is impossible to tell whether the other party is an NPC or a player.
This is the characteristic of "StarCraft Online", which attracts a large number of players.
The number of NPCs in "StarCraft Online" is much more than that of player users, but these NPCs can be bought or even subdued. If you are very good, you can even conquer many NPCs as your own army and dominate the game, such as when robbers rob merchant ships, even troops, or occupy NPC planets...
The map of "StarCraft Online" is very large, with countless planets, as well as Zerg and Protoss, players will not worry about getting bored.
Li Zetian has been investing in the development of the virtual helmets that are often written in novels. If the virtual helmets are applied to "StarCraft Online" in the future, it will be a great deal. Players drive a spaceship, lead an army to launch a war in space, or drive a mecha to fight, oh~~ This feeling is really hard to imagine!
Of course, virtual helmets seem impossible, but Li Zetian has money, so he makes the impossible possible! In Li Zetian's view, every human stimulus or response will generate brain waves, including taste, hearing, vision, touch, etc... The core technology of virtual helmets should be brain wave technology!
Regarding the research on brain waves, Koronos Hospital and Gene Technology have been researching, and they have also achieved good results. For example, wearing a brain wave device on the head can send a brain wave command to control a plane to fly.
