Myron Case had once again broken his own rule.
That was to give up more of his shares in exchange for the opportunity to take a gamble.
If.
If he could make a breakthrough in the video ga industry, then his smartphone industry might at least be able to maintain its base.
And there was also his personal PC business.
In the past, he had always insisted that his PCs focus on productivity and style, dismissing video gas entirely.
With this attitude, coupled with the fact that Mickford's PC sales were not great, no one was interested in porting their ga titles to Mickford's PC operating system.
But now, he was about to make a complete reform.
The price for this reform was that he would have to sacrifice so of his shares.
When the news ca that Myron Case would personally cover all the funding for this venture and was willing to give up more shares, the shareholders imdiately stopped objecting.
So even began to think about how much money they could offer to acquire more shares from Myron Case.
Myron Case naturally knew what they were thinking.
But he didn't care anymore.
At the sa ti, the other shareholders also heard the news.
And they, too, didn't object but instead began considering acquiring more shares of Mickford.
Although Mickford's product sales weren't great at the mont, they had at least built up a loyal fanbase.
And these loyal fans still had quite decent spending power.
However, these loyal fans had often complained about the lack of video gas for Mickford's products, but to the shareholders, that didn't seem important.
But now, since they didn't need to pay any extra costs, trying out video gas didn't seem like a bad idea.
"Good, it looks like the shareholders have no objections to my suggestion. Next, I want to say that I will be increasing investnt in the video ga departnt. This ti, we will make top-tier gas, just like Gastar Electronic Entertainnt's high-end gas. I rember Gastar once promoted a type of industrialized, mass-production ga, which they said was a standard answer. Does anyone here know about this?"
"Boss, I know a bit about that because I participated in Gastar Electronic Entertainnt's industrialized ga developnt course."
An employee, who had always been a small leader in the ga developnt departnt, stood up.
He looked a little excited.
The boss was planning to increase investnt in video gas, which ant that they would be getting more attention and, in turn, more opportunities for promotion!
If they didn't seize this opportunity now, it would be the biggest regret!
"Good. After the eting, we can discuss the industrialized ga developnt in detail."
Myron Case was very pleased.
At least now, there were so people who could be of great use.
"Boss, I believe we shouldn't limit ourselves to industrialized mass-production gas. I an, the gas we make can try to be on a bigger scale."
At this point, another person stood up. He was also from the ga developnt departnt, but he had led a team of over a hundred people in charge of mid-to-small-scale ga developnt.
His team had always struggled with limited funds for ga developnt, which had stifled his ambitions in the field.
Of course, he could consider going to a bigger ga company to fully utilize his strengths.
But as the saying goes, it's better to be the head of a chicken than the tail of a phoenix.
That's the kind of person he was—if given a chance in this position, he would be the biggest beneficiary.
Seeing soone already stepping forward, he no longer hesitated.
"A bigger scale? How big?" Myron Case asked.
"A thousand-person developnt team, with ga developnt funding starting at $100 million. Of course, this doesn't include the costs for ga engine licenses or marketing expenses."
Everyone imdiately looked back at the team leader in shock.
Starting with $100 million? That was insane.
"Do you have the confidence to surpass Gastar Electronic Entertainnt?"
"Of course not." The team leader answered bluntly. "How could we surpass Gastar's status with just one ga? But boss, don't worry. If the direction I'm envisioning is correct, at least we will be able to establish a solid foothold in the video ga industry. And at that point, we will have more followers. Isn't that what you want, boss?"
His words were very honest. To try to surpass Gastar was indeed a fool's dream.
Gastar Electronic Entertainnt was an almost insurmountable giant.
It had been said that unless Gastar ssed things up themselves, they could survive on their past achievents for at least forty years.
Not to ntion Gastar's top-tier ga developers and one legendary figure: Takayuki.
"Alright, we can discuss the specific details after the eting. As for the funding you want, that's negotiable."
"Thank you for your trust, boss!"
The team leader was extrely excited.
It seed that he had made the right bet.
The boss truly wanted to make a na for himself in the video ga industry.
He had finally realized that the products themselves weren't the key—what mattered were the contents.
There were many forms of entertainnt.
Video entertainnt, literary entertainnt, music entertainnt, and so on.
But according to market research, the global video ga industry was estimated to be worth hundreds of billions of dollars over the next decade.
And over the next fifty years?
It was estimated to be worth trillions of dollars.
Such a massive market, no one would want to miss a piece of it.
It was just that Myron Case had always been too proud to touch video gas.
Now, chasing after the top-tier ga companies seed impossible, but Mickford was still a company with money. As long as there was enough ti, and with bold people willing to take risks, it wasn't impossible to carve out a place.
After that, several people continued to voice their ideas during the eting.
Of course, Myron Case didn't directly approve their requests but suggested discussing them individually after the eting. He needed to carefully review each person's basic approach, as he didn't want to waste money.
At this mont, Myron Case had felt a surge of passion he hadn't experienced in a long ti.
Of course, he still didn't fully understand the allure of video gas.
What he needed to do next was to figure out how to understand the charm of video gas as much as possible.
Starting with the top-tier gas, he would dive into them.
