Jingle Bell ......

At noon, someone called, and Wang Zifan was suddenly very interested, which one was so uninteresting.

"Hey!"

"Mr. Wang, I wish you a happy Chinese New Year!"

"Hmm!"

The voice is very special, it is the Frenchman Ma Shiming, Wang Zifan is not good at dealing with foreigners, and said with a smile: "Happy New Year to you!"

Ma Shiming didn't just call to congratulate, he waited for a while, and said what he meant: "Mr. Wang, at 2 o'clock this afternoon, there is a political and business salon meeting in the Central Building, do you want to attend?"

Wang Zifan shook his head and said: "I have other arrangements today, you can participate on my behalf, by the way, is there any progress on the Hongkong Land side?"

Ma Shiming said with a smile: "It's going well, although the Keswick family is still insisting on bargaining, but the situation will force them to make a decision early, I believe there will be a breakthrough after the New Year." ”

Wang Zifan reminded: "Now is the critical moment, be careful of others getting in the way!"

Ma Shiming's heart moved, and he pondered for a moment, and said tentatively: "You mean Mr. Li of the Changshi Department?"

Wang Zifan has no taboo about Li Jiacheng, he has always called him by his name, and said with a smile: "In addition to Li Jiacheng, there are other consortia, they are not capable of acquiring Hongkong Land, but it is still easy to say that it is easy to destroy our plan, it is better for us to negotiate in secrecy, and it is better to wait until the day of signing the acquisition agreement before announcing it, the later the time, the better it is for us!"

"I understand!" Ma Shiming nodded in agreement.

"Hmm!"

Wang Zifan knew that this person was more experienced than himself, so he groaned, and unconsciously chatted so much, and said with a smile: "Okay, let's do it for the time being, you work hard during this time, and keep an eye on the case of the Land Group!"

After hanging up the phone, Wang Zifan thought about the acquisition of Hong Kong Land funds, if Keswick agreed to sign the contract, and he had no money, then the fun would be great, and immediately called the manager of the Prince Fund.

"Hey, Wang Zifan!"

"Hello Mr. Wang, I wish you a happy Chinese New Year!"

"Hmm!"

The corners of Wang Zifan's mouth curled, if he remembered well, there was Manager Lin in the countless congratulatory calls he received in the morning, and he said straight to the point: "How many funds are in the company's account now?"

Manager Lin thought for a moment, and after confirming the authenticity of the call, he truthfully reported: "At present, there are about one billion yuan in liquidity, and this money will be transferred to the account of the Li family next month!"

Wang Zifan frowned and said, "That means there is no money?"

Manager Lin hurriedly explained: "This is the last amount of money we owe the Li family, as for the American dividends you mentioned, that is, the dividends of the movie "Home Alone" have not yet arrived, and the billion is still collected after selling some stocks, and the current company account in addition to the billion, there are also stocks and options worth 350 million, if it is considered an American investment......

"Don't move over there in the United States!" Wang Zifan shook his head and interrupted, whether it is Microsoft or Apple, they are all long-term investments, even if the market value rises, he will not sell, because the right to speak in it is more valuable to him.

Manager Lin hesitated for a moment and said tentatively: "Mr. Wang, I heard that you are planning to acquire Hongkong Land Group recently?"

Wang Zifan said lightly: "You also heard about it?"

Manager Lin nodded and smiled: "I talked to my friends, and now there are no secrets in the business, Li Jiacheng's acquisition is exposed to the public eye, and many media have tracked and reported, but to be honest, we can't eat the Hongkong Land Group at the peak of the stock market last year, and the market value of Hongkong Land once approached the 30 billion mark." ”

Wang Zifan laughed and said: "I understand, this time I am not alone, Chinachem Real Estate Group, the Guo family, and Mr. Li Zhaoji of Henderson Development will support the financing, that is to say, I will be responsible for the negotiation, and the majority of the funds will be paid by them!"

Manager Lin turned to worry and said, "Then our interests!"

Wang Zifan also wanted to hear the opinions of financial experts, so he did not hide it: "The distribution of relevant interests was set as early as a month ago, at present, Jardine Matheson Group holds 25% of the equity of Hongkong Land, and if it is acquired at a premium, the market value is about 3 billion, and I will come forward to take this equity, and then carry out financing, and subscribe according to the proportion, we can get half at most, that is, 12.5%!"

Manager Lin muttered: "Even if this is the case, we will have to pay 1.5 billion Hong Kong dollars!"

Wang Zifan smiled slightly, and the following is the fierce material: "No need to be so much, there is no free lunch in the world, once several major groups enter the game, they are obliged to borrow 500 million Hong Kong dollars from us!"

Manager Lin suddenly realized and said excitedly: "That means we only need to raise 1 billion!"

"What do you think?" Wang Zifan asked rhetorically, if he has the ability, of course he wants to monopolize this benefit, but unfortunately his background is too shallow, in exchange for Li Jiacheng, he can directly call Cheung Kong Industrial for financing, swallow it in one bite, and his Hong Kong Electric does not have this ability, the reason is very simple, most of the members of the board of directors of Hong Kong Electric are British-owned, once the financing is carried out, it is equivalent to pushing Hongkong Land to the British-funded side, if the time is a year late, after the spin-off of Hong Kong Electric, he can use the new group Wanda to operate, but after all, time waits for no one.

Manager Lin nodded like a chicken pecking rice: "Of course, this is the best plan, to control the Hongkong Land Group at the lowest cost, it can be said that it is another version of the snake swallowing the elephant, and when the transaction is completed, Hong Kong people should worship Mr. Wang!"

Wang Zifan shook his head slightly, although he crossed Hong Kong and achieved high achievements, his mind still could not identify with the world of capital, although controlling a listed company at the smallest cost could save a lot of money, but it was also very insecure, once it was blocked or betrayed, it would be devastating, and it would lose hundreds of millions or even billions of billions, and it would be driven out of the company.

So when he really wants to buy a company, he usually gets a controlling stake in the company, and if he is very optimistic, he will even privatize it.

"That's it!" Wang Zifan saw the servant enter the study with the group, and hung up the phone with a smile on his face.

"Okay, goodbye Mr. Wang!"

……

Xiao Ruoyuan, Shi Nansheng, Xu Ke, and He Guanchang came together, each carrying a bunch of gifts in their hands.

Prince Fan Waner smiled and said: "During the Spring Festival, you mentioned such gifts one by one, do you want to bribe me, the leader?"

He Guanchang was not used to the god of doom, Wang Zifan, joking, and stood in place in embarrassment for a while.

Xiao Ruoyuan said happily: "If you can really give us a promotion, I am willing to bribe you once a year in the future!"

Wang Zifan laughed, stepped forward and hugged Xiao Ruoyuan, then looked at Xu Ke and Shi Nansheng, and greeted: "Sit casually, don't be restrained!"

Xu Ke's eyes stayed on the luxurious decoration of the study for a moment, and he exclaimed in his heart, gold ornaments can really be seen everywhere, although he doesn't know whether it is true or false, he suppressed this strange idea, and joked: "I knew that Mr. Wang lived in such an expensive mansion, what supplements did we buy, we would have come to eat and drink a long time ago!"

Ha ha......

As soon as everyone's laughter passed, He Guanchang said: "Today, in addition to New Year's greetings, we also report our work by the way, if Mr. Wang doesn't have time, we will come back another day!"

Wang Zifan said: "It's okay, I'm worried about how to spend this Spring Festival, you guys are here just in time, and we'll have a meal together!"

Shi Nansheng smiled reservedly: "How embarrassing this is!"

Wang Zifan didn't care and said: "What's embarrassing, just now I called the heads of other companies to discuss decision-making, and also mentioned the dividends of "Home Alone", Miss Shi, you are in charge of the distribution of the film, how long will it take for you to see the dividends of this film to arrive?"

Shi Nansheng thought about it: "According to my experience, it will take about half a year!"

As soon as Wang Zifan heard it for half a year, his heart was half cold, and he frowned and said: "No, half a year is too long, is there a way to advance!"

Shi Nansheng thought about it for a while, and said in a deep voice: "It's no problem to be a month or two in advance, Mr. Wang, after all, it's the United States over there, it's impossible to divide accounts quickly like Hong Kong, and the initiative is in the hands of others!"

Xu Ke nodded and said: "I also understand the Hollywood blockbuster model, after the film is drawn, the box office is counted, as well as procedures such as tax declaration and tax deduction, plus the Sunday holiday time, it usually takes several weeks to make a decision, I suggest sending someone to participate, so that it is possible to get dividends in advance, otherwise the Yankees will make a ghost, and we will be at any time." ”

Wang Zifan nodded and said: "This is to remind Mecca that he is in charge of the United States now!"

Everyone nodded, as if they were going to take over this errand, Wang Zifan blinked, and personally said, "Miss Shi, let's have you to talk about it!"

"Okay!" Shi Nansheng nodded again.

He Guanchang said abruptly: "If I remember correctly, this movie is distributed by 20th Century Fox, and if it is in the name of Golden Harvest, it may be able to receive unexpected effects!"

Shi Nansheng frowned and said: "In the name of Jiahe, can this work, once it is debunked, what if the Americans deduct the dividends?"

He Guanchang sighed and added: "Don't worry about this, Golden Harvest will support it for another month at most!"

Xu Ke hurriedly asked, "Has the acquisition progressed?"

He Guanchang did not explain again, Jiahe's "Young Master Long", which has been brewing for a year, is no match for "Best Partner", and many investors are discouraged, and now Zou Wenhuai is still carrying 60 million gambling debts from his children, and he can't afford to hesitate and delay time.

Xu Ke frowned and said: "Then how to arrange the release of "The Legend of Shushan"?
