888 introduction of foreign capital
"Yes, I can exchange the shares of the domestic cinema company for your shares in the Akesen cinema company. Zhou Qiang said.
"How many shares do you have in that cinema company in China?" Conley asked.
Although Zhou Qiang is not in China, the two cinema companies under his name are still fully acquiring the cinema line, and the same is true for Hongyuan Group, these three companies will eventually be reorganized, Zhou Qiang can account for about two-thirds of the shares, and at the same time, during the acquisition, there are some small independent cinema chains, and they are not willing to sell directly, but hope to join the new cinema company and obtain a part of the shares.
After discussing with An Ningya, Zhou Qiang and An Ningya are ready to select some high-quality cinema resources and join the new cinema company in the form of shares, which is equivalent to about one billion yuan.
In this case, Zhou Qiang invested 6 billion, which can account for about 60 percent of the shares, An Ningya invested 3 billion, which can account for 30 percent of the shares, and those small shareholders who invest in independent cinemas can account for 10 percent of the shares.
Of course, this is only an approximate estimate, and the specific data may fluctuate a little.
"I have about 60 percent of the shares in the cinema chain company in China. Zhou Qiang said.
"With such a high stake, you have complete control over this company. Conley was surprised, which is equivalent to saying that Zhou Qiang controls 20% of the domestic theater chain.
"Conley, if you want, I can exchange ten percent of the shares of the domestic cinema company for four percent of your shares in the Akesen company, what do you think?" Zhou Qiang asked.
Conley shrugged his shoulders and said, "In terms of price, it's very reasonable, but Zhou, it's not a trivial matter, I need to think about it." ”
"Of course. Zhou Qiang raised his glass and said, "For the dream." ”
"For the dream. Conley raised his glass as well.
A business involving a billion people is not a trivial matter, and it is impossible to negotiate it with a single meal.
Zhou Qiang has already told Conley what he should say and what he should express, and as for whether this business is cost-effective, it depends on Conley's own ideas.
Next, everyone was not talking about business, but Conley introduced some local things about Dr. Don, and Erin seemed to be very interested in China, and asked Zhou Qiang a lot about domestic affairs.
The meal lasted two hours, and the five people drank two bottles of red wine, which can be described as a joy for the guests and the hosts.
……
After sending Zhou Qiang and the others off the yacht, Conley and Erin did not get off the yacht, they had already asked the people to clean up the room, and they were going to live on the yacht tonight.
Erin was showering in the bathroom, while Conley was sitting on the sofa, browsing the web on a shielded computer, with a slightly solemn look on his face that was different from his previous cynical expression.
After a few moments, Erin came out of the bathroom, defenseless, raised an eyebrow, and said, "Hi, baby." ”
"Hi. Conley answered, still looking at the tablet.
"Baby, look at me. Erin posed.
Conley raised his head, glanced at it, showed an exaggerated look, and said, "Oh Maiga, my baby, you are so beautiful." ”
"Yay. Erin pursed her lips, seemingly dissatisfied with Conley's attitude at first, and pulled a bath towel to cover her body.
"Oh no, you're so beautiful, let me admire it. Conley said with a look of regret.
"You should keep looking at the tablet, it's more attractive, isn't it?" said Erin, shrugging her shoulders.
"I see, you're jealous. Conley laughed.
"I, how is it possible to eat the vinegar of the computer?" Erin snorted and went straight to bed.
"Oh baby, don't be angry, I was at work just now. Conley also walked over to the bedside.
"Would you be so diligent?" questioned Erin.
"See for yourself. Conley handed the tablet over.
"You're browsing movie information in China. ”
"Yes, I found that the box office growth rate of China I has been very rapid in recent years, and it has become the second largest box office market outside of the United States, and the gap with the United States is getting smaller and smaller. Conley said.
"You are saying that the box office market of China I in the future is likely to surpass that of the United States. Erin asked.
“no。 Conley shook his head and said, "There is still a gap, I just said that it is not that big, whether it can be exceeded, no one can say." ”
"And what do you mean?" said Erin.
"The market share of the Octon Cinema Company in the United States is about 20 percent, and the market share of Zhou's Cinema Company in China I is also about 20 percent, and I have 4% of the shares in the Axon Company, worth about 150 million rice yuan; if I exchange it at the same price, I can exchange for 10% of the shares of Zhou's Cinema Company, which is very cost-effective in terms of income alone. Conley said.
Erin frowned, followed Conley's train of thought, and analyzed: "If the box office market of the United States and China I is about the same, ten percent of the shares are indeed more profitable.
"What do you think?" Conley asked.
"I don't understand a little bit, since the same price, the return of China I shares is higher, why does Zhou want to exchange with you?"
"This company's market share in China I cinema line has reached 20%, which is enough to affect the entire market, which is what Zhou really values, Zhou's stake in this company is very high, even if I give me 10% of the shares, I can still achieve the purpose of controlling the company, and it will not reduce Zhou's influence. Conley said.
"In this way, this week is also a figure in the Chinese film market. Erin asked.
"Of course, with the resources of the cinema chain, without that film production company, it will refuse his investment, and that is the real benefit. Conley said.
"And what was his purpose in acquiring the shares of Axon?" asked Erin.
"For the dream?" said Conley laughed.
"Do you believe it?" said Erin.
"No, the Chinese are mercenary, just like those at Sanyo Real Estate. Conley snorted.
"Zhou, will you also want to get a controlling stake in the Octon Cinema Company? Erin guessed.
"Sanyo Property wouldn't agree. Conley snorted.
"The Chinese like to fight in the nest the most. Erin said.
"Then let them fight on their own. Conley said.
"Conley, what do you mean, are you planning to exchange shares?" said Erin, surprised.
"Don't rush yet. Conley shrugged his shoulders and said, "Beautiful Miss Irene, do you want to travel with me to an ancient and mysterious country?"
"China?" Erin guessed.
"Of course. Conley said.
"Of course I do. Erin looked very happy, put her arms around Conley's neck, and kissed the other cheek fiercely with her broad lips.
……
Seaton Hotel, inside Zhou Qiang's bedroom.
Zhou Qiang was lying on the bed, and Xu Ruyun was sitting on top of him and was helping him massage.
"This is the technique I just learned, how does it feel?" Xu Ruyun asked.
"It's very comfortable. Zhou Qiang said.
"When I go back to China in a few days, I will find a professional massage teacher to teach me, and when you are tired of massage, I will help you relax. Xu Ruyun said with a smile.
"Assistant Xu, why did you think of stammering me?" Zhou Qiang said with a smile.
"I don't work much now, I still have to rely on you to support me, how dare I not scold you. Xu Ruyun said.
Zhou Qiang patted her little hand and said, "Housewife, it's not an easy job, if you don't take care of the family, I can't work with peace of mind, I should be grateful to you." ”
Hearing Zhou Qiang's words, Xu Ruyun was still very happy in her heart, and said, "Dong Zhou, how did you remember that you are going to exchange shares with Kangli?"
"Isn't that good, because you can save money on buying shares. Zhou Qiang said.
"In this case, after the reorganization of the domestic cinema company, your shareholding will be less. Xu Ruyun said.
"Fifty percent is enough. Zhou Qiang said.
Xu Ruyun suddenly understood Zhou Qiang's thoughts, and said, "Isn't fifty-one percent more secure?"
"Isn't there another Everbright shopping mall in Fuding County? There is also a cinema, and I plan to let it join the new cinema chain company in the form of an independent cinema chain, so that it can also get some shares, although it is not much, but the shareholding is more than 50%. Zhou Qiang said.
"It's still thoughtful. Xu Ruyun said.
"Actually, the reason why I asked Conley to join the new cinema company is not only to save money, but more importantly, I want to use Conley's identity. Zhou Qiang said.
"He has any special status in the United States?" Xu Ruyun said in surprise.
"He's from the United States, and that's enough. Zhou Qiang said.
"What do you say?" asked Xu Ruyun.
"The more complex the company's shares and capital, the more sources, the less easy it is to be picked, especially when it comes to foreign investment, those above will be more fearful, not only cinema companies, but also Everbright Company, Baichuan Company, etc., I will continue to introduce some foreign shares to ensure that the company will not be targeted. Zhou Qiang said.
