Chapter 66: Leigh's Change of Hands
After reaching an agreement with Qiu Degen's Far Eastern Group, Ranfeng Group officially withdrew from the pursuit of the shares of Li's TV held by the Australian consortium, and instead joined forces with the Far East Group to launch the final acquisition of Li's TV.
Because of Ranfeng's withdrawal, the Australian consortium was in a somewhat embarrassing situation, because at the beginning, there were two sincere companies competing with Ranfeng and Far East, and the Australian consortium excluded other companies that were not very aware of acquisition from the acquisition ranks, and now Jiang Ran and Qiu Degen joined forces, and the Australian consortium found that they had no other choice.
In this case, the initiative for the acquisition is already in the hands of Far East and Ran Feng. Although the Australian consortium is helpless, they don't want to waste energy on Leigh's TV anymore.
Now the economic situation in Hong Kong is very unoptimistic, there are not many companies that are really interested in Li, and Li's TV is still losing money, which means that Li's TV has been depreciating.
It is precisely because of this mentality of the Australian consortium that the acquisition process of Far East and Ranfeng went very smoothly, and on June 9, Qiu Degen and the Australian consortium formally reached an agreement.
Qiu Degen and Jiang Ran invested 120 million Hong Kong dollars together to obtain all the shares of Li's TV in the hands of the Australian consortium, of which Qiu Degen's to 50.2%, Jiang Ran also got 10% of Li's TV equity again, so far, Li's TV has changed hands again after a year.
A year ago, an Australian consortium took over Leigh's TV, which caused turmoil in the management of Leigh's TV and the loss of a large number of TV production talents.
Now the management of the TV station has just stabilized, but the Australian consortium has abandoned Li's TV, which makes the existing management of the TV station promoted by the Australian consortium completely uncertain, and everyone is worried about their fate.
The day after Li's TV equity transaction,Li's shareholders' meeting,Jiang Ran made two moves before and after in the process of this equity transaction,A total of 16.8% of Li's equity,It has become the second largest shareholder of Li's TVă
When Jiang Ran walked into Li's TV station, many Li's TV employees thought he was here to do other things, until they saw the manager of the TV station welcoming Jiang Ran into the conference room, and they realized that Jiang Ran was here to attend the shareholders' meeting.
"When did Mr. Jiang become a shareholder of our Liditai?"
"Jiang Ran actually came to attend the shareholders' meeting, and I saw that the equity in the stage changed a lot this time. â
"I've heard for a long time that Ran Feng is buying Li's platform, but in the end it seems to have given up, it seems that there is a deal between him and Mr. Qiu. â
After Jiang Ran walked into the conference room, Li's stage was full of discussions about Jiang Ran.
Jiang Ran walked into the conference room and saw that there were already a few people in the conference room waiting there before him, Jiang Ran didn't know these people, so he just nodded and smiled at a few people, then found his place to sit down, and waited quietly for the meeting to start.
Several other shareholder representatives looked at Jiang Ran with some curiosity, after all, it is still very rare for a young Hong Kong rich man like Jiang Ran to be born.
In addition to Jiang Ran in the conference room, there was also a very young man, although the others were curious about Jiang Ran and looked at Jiang Ran, they all withdrew their eyes after a few glances. But this one was a little presumptuous, he kept staring at Jiang Ran and couldn't help but look at him.
Jiang Ran was also a little annoyed by him, and he held back his anger in his heart, turned his head to the young man and asked, "This gentleman, am I rude?"
This young boy glanced at Jiang Ran a little arrogantly, and said, "No, I'm just a little curious, how did you become a shareholder of Li's TV? By the way, my name is Xu Jinheng, and I represent the Xu family today to participate in this shareholders' meeting." â
Xu Jinheng is a little unaccustomed to Jiang Ran, because the two are about the same age, after Jiang Ran was reported by the media last year, his father often compared Jiang Ran with him this year, hoping to use Jiang Ran to inspire him.
It's a pity that his father's motivational behavior not only did not have the desired effect, but also made Xu Jinheng have a very bad impression of Jiang Ran. Now that I saw Jiang Ran unexpectedly at the shareholders' meeting of Li's TV, I naturally wanted to kill Jiang Ran's sharpness.
Jiang Ran heard that this son's name was Xu Jinheng, and he thought, "No wonder it's a little familiar." â
Xu Jinheng He Xu Renye, the grandson of Hong Kong ship king Xu Aizhou, and the son of Xu Shixun. However, Jiang Ran knew her because Xu Jinheng would marry Hong Kong sister Li Jiaxin in the future.
Although Xu Jinheng was born in a wealthy family, he didn't seem to have any achievements in his career, Jiang Ran remembered that later generations seemed to see on the Internet that Xu Jinheng was nearly fifty years old, and he was still living on the family's living expenses.
Now seeing Xu Jinheng's somewhat proud look, Jiang Ran also saw that he seemed to have some opinions about himself, so Jiang Ran naturally stopped sticking to his cold ass, so he laughed, and then said flatly: "Oh, Xu Gongzi is lucky." â
After Jiang Ran finished speaking, he no longer paid attention to Xu Jinheng, nor did he care about Xu Jinheng's annoyed eyes, and closed his eyes to recuperate. Jiang Ran originally didn't want to offend people, but since others had prejudices against him, then he Jiang Ran wouldn't care about other people's feelings.
Jiang Ran sat in his seat and waited patiently for Qiu Degen's arrival, until Xu Jinheng next to him had begun to get impatient, and the door of the conference room opened again.
Jiang Ran and the others looked towards the door, and saw Qiu Degen, accompanied by his assistant, walking into the conference room without hurry, nodding to a few people in the conference room, and then came to the top of the conference table and sat down, before saying slowly: "I'm sorry everyone, I made you wait for a long time." â
Everyone didn't say anything, even Xu Jinheng, who was very impatient at the beginning, stopped making a sound at this time, and everyone looked at Qiu Degen quietly, wanting to see the attitude of this new beautiful TV controller.
"Ladies and gentlemen, the contemptible Qiu Degen, I think everyone will be familiar with it, yesterday I successfully acquired the TV equity of Li, which is controlled by the Australian consortium, and now I have more than 50% of the TV equity of Li. â
"In addition, I would like to introduce you to a young talent, Mr. Jiang Ran of Ranfeng Group, who will become a new partner in our board of directors and holds a 16.8% stake in Li's TV. Qiu Degen introduced this Jiang Ran to a few people.
After Qiu Degen's introduction, Jiang Ran stood up and said calmly: "I'm very happy to join Li's TV, I hope to cooperate sincerely with everyone in the future to make Li's TV better and better!"
After Qiu Degen waited for Jiang Ran to sit down, he glanced around at the shareholders in the conference room, and then said in a firm tone: "Today is the first meeting of the new board of directors of our Lili TV, and the chairman of the board of directors also needs to be decided today." I'm not modest here.,I'm hoping for someone to take over as chairman of the board of directors of Leigh's TV.,I don't know what your opinions?"
After Qiu Degen finished speaking, he quietly looked at the participants in the conference room, and saw that no one in the audience spoke against it, Qiu Degen nodded with satisfaction, and said with a smile: "Since no one of you objected, then this matter is decided." â
"Ladies and gentlemen, in the past year or so, our Li's TV has been turbulent, chaotic management, and has been suppressed by the wireless station in the ratings, and now our new board of directors has been established, and Li's voice is no longer a shareholder of the TV station, I think it is a bit inappropriate to continue to call Li's TV, I hope to change the name of the TV station, which also symbolizes the new atmosphere of our new board of directors. â
After Qiu Degen finished speaking, his eyes were firmly fixed on several people, this was his first proposal to control the TV station, if it could not be passed, it would be a blow to his prestige in the board of directors in the future.
Jiang Ran looked around, and saw that no one else had the intention of speaking, thinking of the agreement between himself and Qiu Degen, Jiang Ran had to respond to Qiu Degen first.
"I agree with Mr. Qiu's proposal, the TV station really needs a new atmosphere now, and the new name can reflect the determination of our new board of directors. â
After Jiang Ran opened his mouth to support Qiu Degen, others considered that changing the name of the station was not a big deal, and Qiu Degen and the two agreed on the same thing, so it would be useless to refute it, so Qiu Degen's proposal was successfully passed.
Eventually, after much discussion, Leigh's TV was renamed Asia TV, and history showed his strong inertia here.
