The wind is calm, the protests of the outside world have nothing to do with Takuhisa, he is not a saint, he is just a member of the mole beings, just taking care of himself is already the limit. There has been good news and bad news these days.

The good news is that the local bigwigs who were originally interested in him let go after following him for a while, especially Takuhisa's movements are not big, whether it is the acquisition of Marvel or Sony shares, it is just a small fight, and it has not yet touched their bottom line.

All kinds of decision-makers only regard Takuhisa as a visionary neon young man who has taken advantage of good fortune and do not pay too much attention to it.

This was their mistake, and it was Takuhisa's luck.

If he is targeted by jackals, tigers and leopards, his life will be much more difficult.

The good news is followed by the opposite bad news.

Unexpectedly, Disney, which was supposed to be eyeing Marvel until 2009, had the idea of acquiring Marvel in advance, and their negotiators arrived yesterday.

He didn't do anything to prepare, at least for now.

Rejecting Disney is also an unrealistic idea, with the power of Disney, Marvel's road after rejecting Disney will be too difficult. In this case, I had to deal with it.

It's not necessarily a bad thing to face it earlier, and you don't have to worry about it now that it's settled.

Despite the Great Depression, the gathering between the upper echelons will never stop.

The meeting with Disney's current chairman and CEO, Robert Iger, is scheduled to take place at the top of a glittering 50-story building, with invited guests, politicians, chairmen of well-known companies, and celebrities who have made a name for themselves in the entertainment industry.

Ignoring these people, under the guidance of the waiter, Takuhisa walked into a room about twenty meters away from the party center.

"Sir, please stop. "Nagaaki Saito was stopped outside by the waiter," Mr. Egger only invited Mr. Takuhisa. The meaning is obvious, Saito Nagaaki is not a person who will be angry about these little things, and he waited outside after Takuhisa signaled.

After entering the room, the comfortable heating spread throughout the room, contrary to the cold air outside, and Takuhisa's body relaxed for a while. A soft orange light filled the small room. In the center of the quiet room is a table that can accommodate several people, and Robert Iger sits on a chair and sipes coffee.

Egger, who had a slightly rough face, had noticed Takuhisa since he entered, but he pretended not to notice and didn't get up to welcome Takuhisa.

Dismounted?

Takuhisa, who had such a guess in his heart, walked over unhurriedly and greeted Egg.

"Hello, Mr. Egger. With a hypocritical business smile on his face, Takuhisa sat down across from Egg.

"Oh, you're the neon boy who bought Marvel, what a young man. Egg made a surprised expression, as if he was really shocked by Takuhisa's age.

Hey, old fox.

Secretly cursed in his heart, Takuhisa naturally couldn't take this seriously, before he came, it was estimated that Egger had already read all the information from his origin to the present, maybe even a few of his friends knew.

"You don't think you're too old, right, you're in your twenties?" Egg wasn't in a hurry to talk about Marvel, but chatted with Takuhisa about other topics.

"I'm exactly twenty years old. Takuhisa pursed his lips and said neither humbly nor arrogantly.

"What a nostalgic age. Iger sighed, "I remember when I was my age, I was just an ordinary weatherman. Oh, if you really want to talk about it, at that time, your neon was shining internationally, and you came to New York with a lot of money to buy companies and buy land, and the newspapers at that time were publishing this, and I was really envious at the time, if I had so much money, I would also buy land. ”

"That's just the glory of the past, the era of neon rise has long passed, in fact, we in the Heisei era did not keep the world that Showa predecessors worked hard for. Takuhisa said modestly, and there was no lack of self-deprecation.

After World War II, the neon economy developed steadily rose for a time, especially after the appreciation of the yen, the neon people who had money found that the dollar was not expensive, and the people of the whole island rushed out to buy it aggressively, and the individuals were crazy, and the same was true for the enterprises, as if the neon people wanted to buy the whole of America and make the United States the forty-first county of neon.

The most classic is Sony's purchase of Columbia Pictures, one of the cultural symbols of America, Mitsubishi Group's purchase of Rockefeller Center, the national symbol of America, and so on...

Most of the real estate is bought by the Neon Man, as if they don't know when the Neon Man will buy the Statue of Liberty.

But after the bubble economy baptism in the 90s, Neon realized how serious its mistake was, and the acquisition of Columbia Pictures was originally Sony's consideration for transforming into an entertainment company, but it was deceived in the middle of the property transfer and other matters, spending extra time and money, also known as Neon's largest loss-making merger and acquisition case.

Mitsubishi is the same, after buying the Rockefeller Center, Mitsubishi suffered huge losses due to poor management, and had to sell the Rockefeller Center back to the original owner at half price.

After the bursting of the bubble economy, most of the older generation's increasingly conservative young people lost the spirit of the Showa period, and became lifeless, without a great leader.

It's completely downhill.

So what Takuhisa is saying so far is also true.

"At least for now, your performance has given me a glimpse of the neon scene at that time, and maybe you can lead the neon to rise again. Egger was kind not like a chairman, and kept praising Takuhisa.

"It's too humble, I don't have that much ability. When Takuhisa heard this, his heart was as calm as a mirror, and he did not lose his mind.

Not to mention personal ability, even the situation will not make Takuhisa the one who leads Neon forward.

Inside, the new generation is green and yellow, and there is no one to take over, even outside, the country of the dragon on the side of the leader is rising, and there is no possibility to compete with them for hegemony.

So to sum up, Takuhisa's ambitions will be put down, and it is enough to have enough money for financial freedom.

After the business exchanged blows, Egger stopped discussing the problem of unnutritious neon with Takuhisa.

"I think you also know that we at Disney want to buy Marvel, Mr. Hara. Egger's hands were together, and the sound of bones jumping was quite loud in the quiet room, "Since I've said so much, I'm sure Mr. Zhihara will agree, right?"

"Mr. Hara, you should be a smart person, knowing the benefits to Marvel after our Disney acquisition, whether it is the distribution of the film, or the licensing of affiliated peripherals, as well as our legal capabilities, I can't imagine the reason why Marvel will not accept our acquisition. Iger leaned back and leaned back in his seat, his voice as steady as before, but inadvertently more arrogant.

Yes, arrogance, Disney's ability is so powerful, that is, it can do whatever it wants.

With such a huge company, their reason for buying Marvel is also very simple.

Although Disney has become the exclusive favorite of girls, Disney has never thought of giving up the boys' market.

How to fight for it?

It's very simple, isn't it okay to buy Marvel?

Marvel, the superhero that boys love, basically occupies half of it, which is an early proposal, and the success of Iron Man's release has made Disney take this proposal seriously.

Listening to what Egger said, Takuhisa was unmoved, and only after sorting out his thoughts did he speak.

"It's a very tempting offer, and if I were Isaac, I'd be happy to accept your offer, Mr. Iger. Speaking of this, Takuhisa paused for a moment and cocked his legs, "What I want to know is that after being acquired, my stake in it, Mr. Egger, how will you solve it?"

It's like a cold and indifferent room, and it's obviously a warm room.

Iger tilted his head and suddenly laughed.

"Does this need to be said? Mr. Zhiyuan, since we at Disney plan to buy Marvel, we will naturally take over all the shares in your hands, Mr. Zhiyuan. Oh, Mr. Zhiyuan, you don't have to be afraid that our price will be unfair, it will definitely be higher than the price you paid to buy Marvel. Are you satisfied?"

It's really unprovoked arrogance, if it's an uneducated person, I'm afraid I'll just get up and beat Egger hard, right?

I worked so hard to buy it, and then you just want to sit back and enjoy it and just grab it all?

How can things be so good in the world?

"If that's the case, Mr. Egger, I think we can end our conversation for today, I don't think we have much to talk about. Takuhisa ended the topic neatly, "I won't say anything too deceitful, I can only say that no one can do such a deal, right?"

As he spoke, the coffee was close to cooling, and Takuhisa ignored it, waiting for Egg's next answer. Takuhisa's words are not true, in fact, they are just ordinary business negotiations.

Just like he didn't think what Iger said was true, the two sides were just testing their own bottom line.

"If this opportunity is missed, we will have to become enemies between us, Mr. Zhihara. Marvel will be Disney's enemy, is that really good?" Iger threatened Takuhisa.

"Then I have no choice but to resort to the last resort. Hearing Egger's words, Takuhisa's words seemed to turn into a sigh of regret, "I don't want to do this." ”

"What is the so-called final step?"

"Then Marvel can only invest in Sony's Columbia Pictures, although the treatment is certainly not as good as Disney, but there is no way, we don't have the capital to fight against Mr. Iger, your Disney. Takuhisa smiled and counter-threatened Egg.

In addition to the shares of Marvel, he also took this opportunity to acquire more shares of Sony's head office, consolidating his position in Sony. So it's not impossible for Marvel to defect to Colombia.

Marvel has also cooperated with Sony, and the little spider that Marvel sold to Sony has won a lot of profits for Sony. There are good prospects for cooperation ahead, and Sony itself will definitely not mind.

Egger was silent for a while, and finally had to sigh helplessly, "Ah, Mr. Zhiyuan, I really underestimate you." Well, Akito doesn't talk in secret, and if you do that, it's not good for either side, and I want both of us to be clear about each other's needs. So Mr. Fingerhara, what do you need to let go?"

Although he was not sure if Egger's gesture was true, Takuhisa had at least survived the dangerous situation just now, and turned the other side in his favor.

"What I want to get," Takuhisa said in fluent English, tapping his hand on the table, "In addition to controlling Marvel, I want to acquire a stake in Disney, that is, to trade it in a stock swap." ”

The atmosphere froze.

Takuhisa's request is quite bold, and a careless one will touch Egger's bottom line.

But he did have a request that Iger accept.

The reason is that in 2006, when Disney acquired Piges Animation Productions, it also used a stock swap, and after the transaction was completed, Jobs' 138 million Disney shares made him the largest shareholder of Disney.

That's right, it's the Apple Jobs.

The lesson from the past is here, and there is no reason for Takujiu to be afraid that Egger will refuse, at most it is just whether the shares that can be replaced are more or less.

This is also the most appropriate method he chose after much thought.

After listening to Tuo Jiu's words, Egger frowned at first, and then relaxed, he smiled wryly and said: "I knew that I wouldn't accept Jobs's stock swap method, and I made a bad start..."

Then he made up his mind.

"Mr. Zhihara, congratulations on our successful cooperation. ”

"Yes, I hope that after Marvel merges with Disney, it can develop as soon as possible. ”

Two hands clasped together on the tablecloth.

The deal that could alarm the industry was decided in such a resting room.

The next thing is the issue of the distribution of shares, at least both parties are happy, and that is enough.

After walking out of the room hand in hand with Egger, the cold wind made the two of them shiver.

"I still have something to do, so I'll go back first, and if Mr. Hara is okay, he can stay at the party for a while, feel free. Speaking of this, Egger winked at Takuhisa, "There are also many well-known actresses at the party, if Mr. Hara is interested, you can also talk to them more." ”

With that, he left the meeting.

Looking at the old guy who left, Takuhisa was also helpless in his heart.

Although Neon itself is open enough, it is still much more conservative than the United States.

I'm hungry too, so let's have a casual meal here.

However, Takuhisa did not refuse his kindness, his stomach was indeed hungry, and it was not bad to have a full meal at the party.

After signaling to Saito Nagaaki, he went to get the plate and prepared to go to the center to pick up some dishes and find a place to sit.

"What a coincidence, Mr. Zhihara, I ran into it again!"

Someone patted Takuhisa's shoulder from behind, and there was a crisp sound of joy like a bell ringing.
