Chapter 268 Capital Operation
Audio!
That is, video discs and other things, but don't underestimate her value, maybe piracy is rampant in China, but it's different abroad, and big companies still rely on this thing to make money.
Michael Jackson still belongs to SO-NY, which seems to be a Japanese company's record label, but in fact, SO-NY has long been surnamed Mei, of course, it doesn't matter.
In the initial negotiations, the SO-NY side was a lion's mouth, they all wanted this copyright, and you Wu Xiang didn't want to get anything.
Can Wu Xiang agree?
If you guys play like that, then we won't have this concert yet.
Anyway, Wu Xiang is not stupid, he knows very well that he has dealt with American companies for so many years, these guys are just a bunch of scum, and they don't spit out bones when they eat people!
Americans may not have as many twists and turns in the business as our businessmen, but they are straight, like a stick, straight to the point. But don't be fooled by these guys' straightforwardness, they will also play tricks.
Let's just say that Wu Xiang often deals with the Miramax company, Wu Xiang was not fooled by these guys, but someone was fooled by them.
This person is none other than Feng Xiaogang.
At the beginning, the time was a little bit old, for example, Director Feng started filming a film, and this Miramax came to talk, of course, there are many other companies, such as Colombia, there is a competition, so Mira made a move.
This movie is mine, I bought it out. $1,000,000!
People not only talk, but also initialed an agreement because they came to negotiate. Director Feng's film has not been filmed, so this contract cannot be so complete, at most Mira will pay a deposit.
There is also a lot of deposit, and Director Feng was also poor back then, and the Wang brothers were also very thirsty, so they came over with dollars. Are you unhappy?
But what about when the movie is finished?
When Mira watched it, it didn't work, this film didn't work. Return!
People asked for a return, but they returned it, who did you sell this film to? The people I talked about before are gone, and they all think that you Huayi didn't sign a contract with Mira?
Returns are a threat. The purpose is to get you to sell the movie to them at a reserve price. The one who is good at playing this trick is Mira's Weinstein brothers.
These are all things that Wu Xiang heard from his brother Feng's mouth, and they are all bloody stories, so while he secretly called for luck, he was also more defensive against American companies, these guys are all masters who eat people and don't spit out bones.
Anyway, Wu Xiang's attitude is very resolute, since Michael has come to our country, and I am hosting this concert. Then you have to give Lao Tzu the copyright, otherwise we will break up!
This negotiation. In fact, it was already when Michael announced to the outside world that he was holding a concert in the East, and of course Wu Xiang chose this time, because Wu Xiang knew that as soon as the news came out, then SO-NY would be able to estimate the approximate return of this concert.
Let's put it this way, if the king of pop holds a concert in the United States, it will be a concert, really, maybe it will be full, maybe there will be a TV broadcast, but it won't have much international effect.
It's a fact, Michael's reputation is not very good, even if he is innocent, and SO-NY actually has nothing to squeeze Michael out of, really, the pop king is like a zombie, and for SO-NY, there is almost no oil and water.
However, when the king of pop announced that his latest concert was in the East, in our country, the influence and attention it could generate were completely beyond SO-NY's expectations!
When the news came out that day, not only the phone of 307 Company was blown up, but also the phone of SO-NY was ringing non-stop.
Yes, in such a situation, Wu Xiang chose such a negotiation time, SO-NY she herself does not have a lot of chips, although she is very awesome and tough, but if this concert is gone, then she can't bear this result.
50%!
Wu Xiang didn't kill everything, he just wanted to score half of it, and he also recommended Hualu Company as a producer, an old partner, so he naturally had to take care of it.
Of course, SO-NY itself got less than Wu Xiang because he had to pay Michael royalties.
And the reason why Wu Xiang can account for half of it is mainly because he also has to pay for local singers.
But give more and give less, it depends on whether Wu Xiang will be a man.
Can Sister Peng have less?
Everybody gets it...... However, Wu Xiang swore to heaven that this was definitely not a bribe to others, absolutely not, and he had no other purpose, absolutely nothing!
This time, the audio and video products are not only CDs and DVDs, of course, there are also VCDs that meet the national conditions, various sets of high, medium and low-end products, anyway, there are a lot of tricks turned out, and our talents in this area are still not worried.
A week after the concert, it was on sale, and until now, the international figures are relatively difficult to count, and the domestic ones alone have sold more than 2 million!
More than two million!
This is a domestic market where piracy is rampant, so Wu Xiang really made a fortune this time.
But the money-making business is not over yet!
The penguin side is on the market in the morning, and Ali's side has all kinds of funds coming in, and people don't have to worry.
Last year, Ali and Yahoo completed a merger, and this merger was that Ali received a $1 billion capital injection from Yahoo in order to buy Yahoo.
Historically, it should have been $1 billion for a 35% stake, but now it's different.
Because Wu Xiang is also a major shareholder, what he said to Ma Jun is that we will lose money on this matter. It's okay to spend $1 billion, but 35% is too much.
And Wu Xiang also gave a special instruction, that is, the payment guarantee. The plan cannot be moved!
As a result, Ma Jun's most difficult thing to talk about with Yahoo was a 35% stake. It's just Taobao.com's, nothing else.
This condition is good.,Anyway, it's the Taobao network to toss.,Although this shopping network looks huge.,But in fact,Its core is to pay insurance.,There's no such thing.。 Then Taobao is nothing, and the payment insurance has always been independent, and no one else has stepped in.
Hangzhou Lao Ma also understands it now. He is using all kinds of resources, all kinds of funds to strengthen himself, and if he doesn't do this, there is only one way. It's to go public.
But I have already said it. Listing is actually buying a company, and this thing is not much different from financing in essence, so Lao Ma did not choose to go public, he raised funds again, and used Taobao's fragrant dumplings to seduce others.
Speaking of listing, Wu Xiang also has an important investment, that is, Jiang Nanchun's elevator media.
Now it's called Focus Media. I also went to the United States to go public!
To tell the truth, Wu Xiang hopes that good domestic companies can be listed on the domestic stock market. This is the truth, although Wu Xiang did not speculate in stocks, but he also knew that domestic shareholders were too bitter!
Yes, these good companies have gone abroad, and most of the domestic listings are iron roosters, and after the listing, they have finished making money, and then they don't care about it, there are no dividends, and they are all day long thinking about how to suck the blood of shareholders!
This is definitely Wu Xiang's voice of justice for the majority of shareholders who have been crippled, but there is a reason why this is not listed on the domestic stock market, you can't blame these overseas listed companies, and you can't control the Securities Regulatory Commission!
This is not right! It is understandable not to blame overseas listed companies, but why can't the China Securities Regulatory Commission be blamed?
Quite simply, the reason why these companies are not listed in China is simply that they can't wait. The regulations in the domestic market are that listed companies should make a profit for at least three years, and the annual profit amount should be more than 30 million.
With such a regulation, many companies that are optimistic about the future cannot be listed in China at all.
Let's just say penguin, don't look at her development very well, but her profit is not good at all, 30 million? 04 years just didn't lose money!
In fact, if you don't look at her current U.S. stock price and stock price only look at the financial statements, a certain time to be listed in China is really far away.
But can we blame the SFC regulations? You really can't blame people.
Because this profit regulation is to let the majority of shareholders not be deceived by inferior listed companies, it is for the sake of the majority of shareholders. At least three years of profit, and more than 30 million every year, this regulation is really stuck in a large number of shell companies, which is actually a good regulation.
But it's also stuck with some promising companies that are still hard to make money right now.
In the past, Wu Xiang didn't know much about this aspect of things, and he also felt that it was a pit for the domestic stock market, but after really getting in touch, he found that in fact, this thing is really not so easy to do, and everyone is crossing the river with stones.
Originally, in history, Focus Media should have been listed in 05, but Wu Xiang was stunned to 06, he was just thinking about it to see if there was a chance to be listed in China, but it was a pity......
If you don't go public and don't raise money, the speed of development will be reduced, and sometimes you need to make some sacrifices for the sake of a general direction, as long as this sacrifice is valuable, that's fine. From the perspective of Wu Xiang, a reborn person, all these sacrifices now are worth it!
But in any case, the focus is on the NASDAQ listing, as the media industry, to put it bluntly, it is the first U.S. listed company in domestic advertising, her stock has risen well, and Wu Xiang's net worth has also skyrocketed!
Of course, it's still the same old thing, no one knows that it's his stock, and no one knows that he has something to do with this company.
Invisible rich, these four words can completely describe Wu Xiang, and Wu Xiang is not happy to do this, otherwise it is estimated that there will be no call for an interview or something.
The most financially strapped period has passed, and it is truly over...... (To be continued......)
