Chapter 434: The Way of Self-Preservation
If it weren't for this retreat to plan for the future, Liu Ruoyi would not have thought of these deep-seated things at all, and many things would not have the possibility of happening at all, but once they jumped to a certain level.
No matter what way Liu Ruoyi achieves it, she will eventually face such a big situation that she needs to find a way to protect her interests.
For Liu Ruoyi, I'm afraid there is nothing more frustrating than this.
Although this is just a deduction, after Liu Ruoyi put forward such a hypothesis, he believes that in the future, even if he uses the foresight of the market to develop to an astonishing stage of wealth accumulation, he will not become a giant calling for wind and rain, but may become a "fat pig" chased and divided by the world's powerful people.
Thinking of this, Liu Ruoyi couldn't help but be shocked, fortunately she was not blinded by the glitz in front of her, and left a lot of time to think about the future.
If you really bury your head in your own affairs and make a fortune quietly, even if your career has been developing very smoothly, accumulating a huge amount of wealth in the future will not necessarily be a blessing, but a big disaster.
For example, the provocation and interference from Sun Yuan now originally thought it was just a trivial matter, just avoid it. Now that I think about it, I am not "guilty of it", although I am not here for my wealth, and now I only covet my peerless appearance, which is aimed at myself.
But with the development of Penguin and Ahri, and the expansive growth of the Aurora business that changes every day, the accumulation of wealth around Liu Ruoyi is too fast and evil.
This kind of wealth accumulation, which is unprecedented in the world, will become very dangerous for Liu Ruoyi.
Even if Liu Ruoyi has designed a series of complex related third-party offshore companies in advance, a large part of the wealth is buried in this complex transaction.
However, in several major sources of wealth, whether it is the development of Aurora Culture, or the investment of future world-class enterprises such as Penguin and Ahri, none of them can erase the deep footprints left by themselves.
Now I want to participate in the future wave of world-class resources and cattle market to get a piece of the pie, harvest the fattest part, and try to pull up a world-class financial company.
These things are mysterious things for ordinary people, and for those real predators, once they enter their field of vision, how many secrets will be preserved where, and sooner or later they will become targets in broad daylight.
When that time comes, whether it is Zhao Shaodong and Chu Luo's family background or personal ability, it will be very difficult to keep their share, let alone protect Liu Ruoyi's interests.
With the current energy of the Zhao family and the Chu family, it is true that they can hold tens of billions of wealth, but in the face of hundreds of billions of wealth, what about trillions of wealth? Can one or two families swallow it alone, so that the entire Chinese wealth ecosystem is unbalanced?
When Aurora Culture and Network Gathering and Aurora Venture Capital really begin to show a huge wealth effect, I am afraid that the two of them together may not be able to protect themselves!
For this stage, a 100-billion-level consortium is a large group that ranks first in the Asian circle, and if there is a stable foundation, it is enough to call the wind and rain in Xiangjiang.
But if the foundation is shallow, it will be a big cake coveted by some forces with huge backgrounds!
As for the trillion-level enterprise empire, if there is no deep background support, even if it is put in ten or twenty years, it will definitely be a lamb in front of the world's major forces!
Even if the richest man in the world in his previous life was self-made, or the richest man in the region, he was up and down, Liu Ruoyi didn't study it carefully back then, and he didn't feel anything wrong.
In this way, Liu Ruoyi found that she had to change some of her thinking.
Through the outline of the future, Liu Ruoyi has become more and more clear about the evolution of the future situation, that is, the more money you make in the future, the stronger your ability to protect yourself must be.
If you shrink into the jungle of local predators in the mainland and Xiangjiang, at best, after developing to a wealth of 10 billion, you can seek how to protect yourself, and if you can rely on the strength of Zhao Shaodong and Chu Luo, it is relatively easy to survive at this level.
Of course, it depends on the fact that the Zhao family and the Chu family don't have too many ideas about this "cake", and the character of Chu and Zhao is strong enough.
If any of the Chu and Zhao families had moved their minds, Liu Ruoyi would find that all these things that he had worked so hard to plan for Aurora Culture would eventually be wedding clothes for others!
And the assumption that his future is based on the character of his partner is dangerous enough for Liu Ruoyi, although he came up with such a three-person holding structure in the early stage, it seems that only one person needs to stand with him to deal with it and occupy an absolute controlling stake in the company.
But relatively speaking, the other two can also join forces to kick themselves out!
Don't test human nature with huge wealth, for an elite like Liu Ruoyi, who has been in a top investment bank for ten years, everything is unknown in the face of huge wealth.
Family can be torn apart, let alone friends?!
Although Liu Ruoyi has made some preparations before, such investments as Penguin are completely independent investments through offshore companies controlled by themselves, and at the same time, in order to facilitate operations in financial markets such as stocks and stock index futures, Liu Ruoyi also has its own independent offshore investment company to start operating to put personal funds into it.
But after all, this is only a small part of her investment, and among the other investments handled by Liu Ruoyi, a large part of her wealth is placed on the two platforms of Aurora Culture and Aurora Venture Capital.
In other words, Liu Ruoyi has at least 70% of her future wealth in a condition that tests human nature!
Whether it is a nominee holding or a joint venture, Liu Ruoyi is an out-and-out non-controlling shareholder in these platforms, and the shares he owns are far from enough to control a company.
Therefore, the current design of this structure is already maintained by friendship for Liu Ruoyi, if human nature can't withstand the test, then Liu Ruoyi's position on these two platforms is very dangerous!
Liu Ruoyi looked at the current investment holding structure she had written down, and couldn't help but smile bitterly, she still studied finance, and she didn't plan at all along the way, digging countless big pits for her future to bury herself.
Aurora Culture, established out of righteousness, did not think about so many far-reaching things from the beginning, although the operation still maintains an efficient momentum today, but the risk has begun to be highlighted, this simple equity structure for the further development of Aurora Culture, is not very adaptable!
If Liu Ruoyi wants to go further with the Aurora culture in the future, the Aurora culture must be transformed.
As for the super bull market in the resource futures market that will occur in the future, Liu Ruoyi completely dispelled the original idea and no longer considered putting it on the Aurora Culture Platform to operate. However, Liu Ruoyi, who has already put in the oil futures trading department, is not ready to be laid off.
As part of a diversified source of funds, the Aurora system has begun to show signs of a consortium, and maintaining ties with the Zhao family and the Chu family is also a very important thing for Liu Ruoyi.
At least until now, the development of the aurora system is still under control.
Next, Liu Ruoyi will carry out a drastic transformation of the Aurora joint-stock limited company, so that it has a listed equity structure, and introduce a group of strategic investors and partners. With the good development momentum of Aurora Culture, it is a good choice to be the first to be listed on the Xiangjiang Stock Exchange.
In order to solve the problem of competition in the same industry, Liu Ruoyi plans to reintegrate Aurora Culture into a comprehensive media group, and put all the businesses except movies into the future Aurora Media Group, and part of the film business will be spun off and set up an independent Aurora Pictures to operate independently.
With Xiangjiang Aurora Culture as the main body, Aurora Media Group integrates ATV, Jinhai Aurora's mainland music and film and television drama businesses to build a media group listed on the Xiangjiang stock market, making it a public company.
In the future, Liu Ruoyi, Chu Luo and Zhao Shaodong will set up an offshore company to own the shares in the Aurora Media Group, and at the same time, Liu Ruoyi is ready to release 15 to 20 percent of the shares for the first strategic financing.
In terms of valuation, the newly integrated Aurora Media Group will be valued at 12 billion to 15 billion Hong Kong dollars for strategic investors, in other words, Liu Ruoyi hopes to raise 2 billion to 3 billion funds to solve the capital needs of Aurora Media for the next 2 to 3 years of great development at one time, and get rid of the capital dependence on Aurora Venture Capital!
The funds invested in Aurora Culture by Aurora Venture Capital in the early stage will be gradually and orderly withdrawn in the future.
In this way, after the first financing and the first phase of the option of about 5% to the management is cashed out, Aurora Media will have 20% to 25% of the outside shares, and the remaining shares will still be divided equally between Liu Ruoyi, Zhao Shaodong and Chu Luo, each of which will be about 25%.
According to Liu Ruoyi's plan, when the first strategic financing is completed and developed for 1 to 2 years, the minimum valuation of Aurora Media Group's listing will exceed 30 billion Hong Kong dollars, and then 15% of the shares will be taken out as public shares, and the shares of Liu Ruoyi, Zhao Shaodong and Chu Luo will be further reduced to about 21%.
In this case, if the three of them go their separate ways, then the battle of Aurora Media will have to be played, no matter who it is, it is impossible to simply control the lifeblood of Aurora Media, and truly become a joint-stock enterprise that needs to consider public shareholders.
Liu Ruoyi doesn't have to worry about Zhao Shaodong and Chu Luo joining forces to be directly kicked out of Aurora Media, for Liu Ruoyi, who has no background, there is still an opportunity to unite other shareholders to fight, and the situation has obviously been greatly improved.
If the three of them still work together, then everything is as happy as ever, and the three of them together have enough shares to pass any shareholder resolution they want!
Such a structure is a feasible plan for Liu Ruoyi to protect herself in the Aurora Media Group in the future.
Drawing this plan on scratch paper, after some deduction, Liu Ruoyi felt that this was a new structure that she could rely on in the future.
There is no need to test human nature, and there are no longer too many opportunities for the giant crocodiles watching from the sidelines, and the two financing of more than 6 billion Hong Kong dollars is enough to promote ATV to the entire Asian satellite TV market in 5 years.
At that time, it is difficult to say whether Aurora Media Group can reach a valuation of 100 billion Hong Kong dollars, but there is no problem at all with a valuation of more than 50 billion Hong Kong dollars.
Imagine that in the future, ATV satellite TV stations will be all over Asia, among which the coverage of the mainland market will at least exceed that of Xiangjiang Firebird Satellite TV in the previous Liu Ruoyi era, and in terms of programs, variety shows have Liu Ruoyi's open hand to guide in advance, there is no doubt that it will far surpass Mango Channel and Shuilan Channel, and overturn the national TV station!
In terms of TV drama channels, it is obvious that they will not miss the top hot dramas in Liu Ruoyi's memory! At least there is no suspense in becoming the top three in the ratings list of mainland TV dramas.
has such a terrible killer, and is about to go public, casually making a fuss about the concept, it is really not too much to value 100 billion!
This is the first conclusion that Liu Ruoyi came to after redesigning and deducing the Aurora culture.
Obviously, Liu Ruoyi's new structure can unconsciously eliminate the huge drawbacks left over from the early share design at the implementation level.
At the same time, it can also eliminate the potential threat of the two partners without bloodshed, so that they are more willing to continue walking together. Use the system design to make everyone more cooperative, so as to lift the time bomb of the rights and interests competition that tests human nature!
As for the process of changing shares, a part of the benefits will be distributed to the partners of previous financings, which is a normal business operation.
Through this successful operation, Liu Ruoyi still has a great possibility of really standing in the foreground, and in the future, she can step into the spotlight step by step and become a business tycoon who cannot be ignored.
If you are blindly low-key, people will think that you are weak and deceitful, and the only combination of strength and softness can make some people give up unrealistic goals.
This world is so cruel, when you are doing nothing, you may not feel much of the cruelty of jungle-style jungle law of the jungle.
But once at the top of the future wealth, staring at this place is no longer a herd of docile sheep, but a herd of ferocious jackals, tigers, leopards and crocodiles!
If you want to protect your future interests and not turn yourself into a "lamb" that is eaten by a world-class giant crocodile, Liu Ruoyi must have a suitable way to protect herself.
Only with the right ability to protect herself, Liu Ruoyi can let go and obtain more wealth, although this world is not yet within reach for Liu Ruoyi.
But with the memory of the early stage, compared to the vast majority of competitors, it is equivalent to having seen the future ending hole cards, and there is always a seven-point chance of winning, under such conditions, as long as Liu Ruoyi is not stupid, it will basically not lose.
Originally, she was afraid that Mu Xiu would be destroyed by the forest wind, and Liu Ruoyi wanted to hide behind the scenes as much as possible.
But now it seems that it is not possible to show no muscles at all!
This world, after all, is still more kind to the strong.
