CTOnews.com, June 6 (Xinhua) Microsoft President Brad Smith (Brad Smith) held talks with the British Chancellor of the Exchequer on Tuesday and said he would work with regulators to seek British approval for its $69 billion deal to buy Activision Blizzard, the developer of call of Duty (CTOnews.com Note: about 490.59 billion yuan).

In April, CMA, the UK regulator, announced that it would block the acquisition, sparking strong opposition from the two companies. Microsoft subsequently appealed and its president, Brad Smith, met with British Chancellor of the Exchequer Jeremy Hunt in London on Tuesday, local time, without giving details.

▲ Touyuan: Microsoft Smith said at the techUK technology policy leadership meeting that he hoped the results would change, adding: "I am looking for solutions". "if regulators have concerns, we will address them. If there are problems, we need to solve them. If the UK wants to implement regulatory requirements beyond the EU, we hope to find ways to meet them."

Smith also reportedly plans to meet with officials from the Competition and Markets Authority (CMA) during his visit to London this week. He said he had always been "optimistic about the UK as a good place to live, learn and build".
