Chapter 460: Acquisition

"Don't be impulsive, Mr. Williams, we're just doing business......" Officer Laurie Samson beckoned.

"Okay, I just want to say, I didn't kill Yakoro Iwasaki, and I didn't send anyone to kill him!

"Yes, Mr. Williams. We don't have any more questions to ask, sorry for the interruption!"

Laurie Samson and the other four immediately got up and said goodbye to Henry.

"My dear, I think we'd better get back to California as soon as possible, right?" said Princess Ulysses as she watched the police leave.

Henry stretched out his hand, and Princess Ulysses obediently slipped into his arms. "Well, I'll get it done as soon as I can, and then I'll go back!" Henry kissed her on the forehead and comforted, "Don't worry, it's okay!"

"Helen, call Corkrian, let's talk to him. ”

"Hmm. ”

After a while, Corkerian arrived.

After taking a seat on the sofa in the hall, Henry said straight to the point: "Mr. Corkrian, I came to Las Vegas this time, in addition to vacation, I am also going to invest here. But this is different from other cities, this is a well-known gambling city, and I don't know the place here, so I want to find a 'local' as my partner!"

"Mr. Williams, do you think I'm suitable?"

"Of course," Henry laughed, "you're the person I know best in Las Vegas!"

A hint of joy flashed on Corkerian's face, and he couldn't help but ask, "Mr. Williams, how are you going to invest?"

"I'm going to build four big casinos in Las Vegas! We're working together and investing a total of $10 billion, with me accounting for 6 percent and you accounting for 4 percent. ”

Hearing this, Corkrian smiled awkwardly, "Mr. Williams, this, I don't have such a cash ......"

"It doesn't matter if you don't have money," Henry said with a smile rolling his eyes, "Mr. Corkerian, don't you have MGM Hotels...... Since we want to cooperate, we simply cooperate to the end. I invested $15 billion in MGM Hotels & Resorts and held a 60% stake in the MGM Hotels & Resorts Group, how about it? With this money, MGM Hotels & Resorts has a lot of power, and it can definitely monopolize Las Vegas!" "MGM Hotels & Resorts not only owns one MGM Las Vegas hotel, but also owns many resorts, hotels, casinos......

Corklian was very moved to hear this, but such an important decision was not up to him alone, "Mr. Williams, I will contact the other shareholders and inform you after the board of directors is convened." ”

"No problem, but hurry up, because I'm planning to leave Las Vegas in the near future!"

"I'm calling the board for a meeting this afternoon!"

"Well, that's for the best. Henry nodded and said, "In addition, in addition to this matter, I am also more interested in MGM Pictures, as the big boss of MGM Pictures, please make a price!"

"For the sake of our soon-to-be-partnered partners, I'll give you a little cheaper, $7 billion!"

"Isn't $7 billion too high, Mr. Corkerian? MGM Pictures is terminally ill, losing money year after year, making movies without even having its own studio, and its strength is far behind the eight major Hollywood studios!" Henry shook his head and said, "A fixed price, $6.5 billion! After selling, you can also worry about it." Otherwise, if the company continues to lose money, it won't even be worth $6.5 billion! If you make a mistake, there will be no such store in this village, and if you want to sell it next time, I may not want to buy it!"

When Corklian heard this, he couldn't help but ponder, he had always wanted to sell MGM Pictures, but he couldn't find a buyer, because others thought he was selling it too expensive. In recent years, as MGM Pictures has been losing money year after year, as Henry said, its market value has become lower and lower.

Corkrian took a deep breath and finally made up his mind.

"Well, Mr. Williams, $6.5 billion is $6.5 billion!"

Corklian holds 80% of the shares, and his words basically represent the will of the company!

Henry happily stretched out his hand and said, "This is a wise decision!"

"I think so, huh......" Corkery smiled as he shook Henry's hand.

After continuing to talk for a while, Corklian took his leave and left.

In the afternoon, Corkrian called all the members of the MGM Hotel Group to the board of directors, he is the chairman of the group company, and he is also the largest shareholder, holding 30% of the shares, and has the right to convene the board of directors.

When the people were all together, he told Henry what he meant. No matter what others think, he prefers to cooperate with Henry, and with the help of Henry's huge funds, it is enough to fulfill the dream of the Las Vegas giant!

And once the MGM Pictures deal is completed, he has enough funds to increase his stake and ensure his voice in the company as much as possible.

The board meeting was hotly discussed, but with the support of Corkrian, it was finally agreed that Henry would take a stake in MGM Hotels.

The next day, Corkrian approached Henry, and instead of talking about the hotel group, he brought a contract for the sale of MGM Pictures.

"Mr. Williams, the MGM Pictures contract has been drawn up, you see, if there is no problem, we can sign it!" Corkerian said with a smile, handing over the papers.

Henry took the document and read it, with his current level of distinguishing contracts, he was better than most lawyers, and there was no need to hire a lawyer.

In less than a minute, Henry was able to browse quickly, faster than flipping through a book.

Corkrian couldn't help but smack, "Mr. Williams, we have time, you might as well take a closer look at the contract!"

Henry waved his hand and said with a smile: "It's okay, I've finished reading it, and it basically meets the conditions we have negotiated!"

"Mr. Williams, the contract says that the purchase price will be paid on the day the agreement takes effect......" Corkrian cautioned.

"No problem, I can write you a check at any time!" Henry laughed.

Corklian was overjoyed when he heard this, "Since the contract is fine, then we will sign it now?"

"Of course!"

Henry signed the contract as the chairman of Galaxy Films, which meant that MGM Pictures was officially merged into Galaxy Films. However, the matter of the press conference will have to wait until I return to California.

Corklian took the check and carefully slipped it into his pocket. That's when he started talking about MGM Hotels.

"Mr. Williams, MGM Resorts has been decided by the Board of Directors to accept your investment. However, I will continue to increase my stake......"

Henry immediately understood the little ninety-nine in Corkerian's heart, but Henry didn't mind, and smiled: "No problem, how much do you plan to invest?"

"$3 billion!"

Henry roughly calculated that even if Corkrian invested $3 billion, his own shares would reach more than 50% and he would have an absolute controlling stake in the company.
