When I got up in the morning, the editor saw such a news

According to the latest reports from the network, Microsoft plans to complete <五千零一十六亿一千零五万>the proposal to acquire Activision Blizzard for $68.7 billion (501613050000) by next Friday.

I was shocked to see this, in fact, I personally still have a good understanding of the game, and I know the copyright and its high value, but I didn't expect it to be so high, and the most popular game for Blizzard certainly belongs to: Warcraft, Diablo, StarCraft, StarCraft and other classic games, and for Blizzard, there is such a saying that Blizzard must be a good product.

And Microsoft's strength is definitely not to be underestimated, as the originator of computer programs, Microsoft's revenue in 2022 is: 211.9 billion, and its net profit is: 72.738 billion US dollars.

According to a relevant source, this plan has already been launched, and in January 2022, Microsoft announced the acquisition of Activision Blizzard for $68.7 billion. If the deal closes, Microsoft will also become the world's third-largest gaming company, behind Tencent and Sony.

Seeing this, I believe everyone can also have a deeper understanding of the status of mainland Tencent, right? In 2022, Blizzard's net revenue is: $1.78 billion and 368 million monthly active users. Tencent's revenue is: $760, WeChat monthly activity is 1.313 billion, QQ monthly activity is 572 million, while Tencent Games' revenue in 2022 is $23.4 billion, and the scale of Chinese game users is 664 million. In 2022, due to the downturn in the domestic market, Tencent Games pointed to overseas manufacturers as many as 11 of the 13 game investments in the year, which also proves the strength of China's Tencent Games.

Even with this comparison, Microsoft's acquisition of Blizzard was $68.7 billion, completing the largest deal in the gaming industry. The deal has already been approved in 40 countries, pending only permission from the UK. To await licensing and scrutiny, Microsoft and Activision Blizzard also agreed in July to extend the deadline for the deal from July 18 to October 18.

Among them, everyone knows that the biggest benefit of Tencent is actually WeChat and QQ, so you can imagine how strong the real Tencent company is.

Microsoft's acquisition of Blizzard is expected to be due on Friday, October 13, when Microsoft will announce to the world that the 20-month acquisition process for Blizzard is coming to an end.

Of course, whether Microsoft can announce the news by then depends on the British antitrust regulator "Competition and Markets Authority"

Authorities blocked the deal earlier this year, but Microsoft recently resubmitted an acquisition proposal, which led to preliminary approval.

In this regard, although it is the third largest game company in history, it still completed at a price of 68.7 billion US dollars, which is also the largest transaction in history.

For the vigorous development of Tencent, relevant data shows that in addition to the elderly over 80 years old and children under 6 years old, the use rate of its mainland is as high as 98%, Xiaobian personally contributed great strength, in use, from QQ to now, and Tencent's game Xiaobian has basically played, as for the revenue contribution, although not much, but not too low.

I don't know how you contribute to the world's No. 1 Tencent?
