    Uwah, with the whole Tencent controversy, I'm concerning for Tencent getting their hands on this.

    Hmm?

    On a separate note, they will release their Q3 earnings Nov 7.
    They've also starting a share buyback program this month, a move that most public companies have been doing this year to boost stock prices.

    The bid is long over, Tencent will not be getting Nexon.
    However, they are still open to any opportunities to talk business related to collaborations with Nexon.

    It's not at all concerning, as this is the world of business.
    Tencent makes lots of money in the video game industry, it only makes sense Nexon could collaborate with them sometime in the future.

    The only concern we should have are trade wars, economic and political instability in regards to Nexon.

    Since the official Peria Chronicles Youtube Channel was following Stadia on Youtube... here's an update on Google Stadia.
    (Uncertain if Nexon KR will invest in Stadia in the future.)

    Hong Kong hits a recession, via Twitter Moment.
    "Hong Kong's economy shrank 3.2% in the three months to September from the preceding period, according to official data. The government cited severe impacts of "social incidents" following months of anti-government demonstrations."

    Whelp, I guess Nexon KR dodged a bullet by cancelling that auction.

    Fires continue to take over California via Twitter Moment.

    BBC News covers a fire at Shuri Castle in Japan.

    Dark times are upon us.

    They're still investigating what started the fire at the castle.
    History dictates that it could have been either:
    A) It was a cow knocking over a lantern
    B ) Some numskull left a cigarette on the ground
    C) It was intentional (Unlikely, as it's a historical landmark with probable armed guards.)
    D) It was a numskull who started an accidental spark

    New legislation to prevent more intentional fires was an excellent step for Japan.

    Speaking of fires, 71 people in Pakistan were killed on a train when a fire broke out from a passenger's gas stove.

    Carry on gas stove?! In what universe would you presume that not a fire hazard?

    Welp, looks like some Artifacts were indeed lost to history. Twitter Link

    Also a Tweet from The Fire and Disaster Management Agency on current Shuri Castle State of Damage.

    Well, Japanese castles usually are wooden structurally, so it's not surprising. They'll be lucky to salvage some things.
    Interesting that so many sites with historical artifacts have been burned or threatened by fire this year. We had the fire at Notre Dame, a Brazilian museum burned to the ground, the fire at this castle, and in California the Getty Center was threatened by fire this past week, and the Reagan Library was threatened just the other day. And this zodiac year's element isn't even fire!

    I'm honestly hoping to see Nexon KR make a charity driven event for the JP branch, even if it's only to pump out a low class item like the charity wand I can't remember the name of.

    With the current political tension between Japan and Korea? That's a death wish.
