Chapter 185: Genius and Idiot

"A million dollars?" Jing Jian smiled at Billy. It's so miserable that I sing in the hotel, and I don't need to look at the report to know that the company is not worth anything.

And Jiang Zhijiao said in English in a timely manner: "Bramble, if you really like those artists, I can talk about it later, just a hundred thousand dollars, and I should definitely be able to get it." Besides, you really like to play, and if you pay that little money, you just want the symphony orchestra to accompany you, and you can do it. ”

It was an undisguised face-to-face poaching, and Billy felt a little feverish in his face. Although there is a high liquidated damages clause at the time of signing. But as soon as the company went out of business, the liability for breach of contract was activated, and Billy didn't even get a penny. And the company was already running in dismal shapes, and even Billy himself didn't know how long it would last, maybe just a few months. If someone really came up with $100,000 now, maybe even Billy himself would be tempted.

However, it was already difficult to ride the tiger, and Billy could only bite the bullet and say: "Sir, in addition to these artists, our entertainment company also has a film department, which has successfully produced five movies and has the rights to these films. We also have full-fledged film and pop teams. And ......"

"Huh. "It's better for Jing Jian to speak," Mr. Billy, let's sit down and have a drink. I'm not interested in the rest of your company. If you want to sell, it's $800,000. Of course, there are several other conditions. If not, then have a glass of wine and we'll go our separate ways. ”

"That'...... Thank you. Pretending to be reluctant, Billy sat down. How could he not be interested?" "Excuse me, Mr. Bramble, what are your conditions?"

"First of all, I want to ask you, how is the company's financial situation?

"Surely not. Our company's accounts are in surplus and there is not a single bit of loans and borrowings. Billy quickly replied. He just added in his heart, and the account had a surplus of more than 10,000 US dollars, and he didn't even know where the next month's employee salary was. Moreover, in such a small company, which bank and which investor are willing to lend and borrow? All of them are the investments of a few of its own shareholders, and all of them have burned money and burned over.

"And what about the current ownership of this company?"

"Exclusive to the contemptible and private. ”

"That's good. Let me tell you about my conditions. ”

"Listen up. ”

"First, after I buy the company, I will set up an entertainment group. Under the entertainment group, it will be divided into two major branches: film and music. You only have 20% of the shares of the music branch plus 10% of the annual profit dividend, and the salary is calculated separately, and the music branch is managed by you, and I do not interfere. ”

Billy is actually already excited, not to mention the empty gloves white wolf, he can still have 20% of the shares of the music company and 10% of the dividends. As for what film company, it has long been an empty shell. However, for the sake of their own interests, they still have to fight for it: "Mr. Bramble, 20% is too little, right?"

"What about a 10% dividend?" Jing Jian did not back down, "Mr. Billy, if you think it is less. Of course, you can also choose 10% of the shares, 25% of the dividends. ”

"That's still a 20 percent stake. Billy hurriedly agreed, for fear that Jing Jian would regret it. Although the latter option, if the company is profitable, the annual dividend can be 5% higher, but in case ...... And Jing Jian is the boss, if one day, suddenly arrange one of his own people to sweep Billy, a small shareholder, out of the house, even if there are more dividends, then he can only watch?

"That's good. Jing Jian nodded, "Second, the 800,000 I bought the company, of which 400,000 is the capital injection into the company, do you agree?"

Billy thought that his $400,000 private investment had finally come back, and the company really needed to inject capital again. So he agreed very cheerfully: "I have no objection to this." ”

"Third, there are only a few artists in the company now, right?"

"Yes, just the elf birds, these ten artists. ”

"Well, these artists have all changed to the head office of the group. There is such a possibility, I want them to develop their song and shadow amphibious. ”

"That's fine. Billy agreed. If Jing Jian can really toss up some fame, it will also be of great benefit to the development of these artists. Besides, what year has it been that Hollywood hasn't had a few ambitious young people invest in movies that they might not even see?

"Excuse me, Mr. Billy, what are their liquidated damages and contracts. Jing Jian asked with a smile.

"It's all unified. They signed a contract a year ago, both for 15 years, with $1 million in liquidated damages. Billy replied. It's no secret about these. It can be seen that the United States' oppression of new debuting artists is equally ferocious.

"$3 million! The new contract is also 15 years. Jing Jianjian decided.

"But ...... sir?" As soon as the liquidated damages are raised, the corresponding guaranteed weekly salary and appearance bonuses will also be increased. Billy was a little distressed.

"That's all. Jing Jian said it all.

"That'...... Alright!"

"If it's all right, Mr. Billy, go and sign a legally binding memorandum now, and fix our commitment. After returning to Los Angeles, the audit is passed, and a formal contract is signed. Of course, in order to prevent fraud from each other, Mr. Billy, I would like to be reminded in advance that the liquidated damages will be as high as $200,000. My lawyer and accountant are expensive. My time is even more precious. "Of course, Jing Jian will not be very reckless and believe that the specific acquisition will definitely be arranged for professionals.

"Absolutely. Please believe that what I say is all true......"

……

Billy led the boys and girls and introduced them to Jing Jian, the new boss. Jing Jian gave each boy and girl a $500 gift and left. Until Jing Jian and Jiang Zhijiao were left, suddenly, Jing Jian showed an excited expression: "Brother Jiang, how am I doing? This is the first company I acquired." I'm amazing, right?"

Jiang Zhijiao was already speechless. The negotiation just now was quite good, and it really scared Jiang Zhijiao a lot. But now that I think about it, just for those accompaniments, or for those beautiful girls, I didn't even lift my eyelids, and threw away $800,000?

"Ahem. It's amazing. Not that powerful. Jiang Zhijiao smiled against his will, "Xiao Jian, you are quite good at negotiating." Who did you learn it from?"

Jing Jian smiled proudly: "I went out with my uncle a few times, and I learned it by listening to it on the side." They also taught me a lot, so I knew a little bit. But they told me that if there was anything, I just had to ask a lawyer or an accountant for help. ”

Jiang Zhijiao remembered again that the person in front of him could be admitted to Huaqing. It's not uncommon to have a bit of a memorable ability. But...... Is he a genius, or an idiot?
