Chapter 437: Tangled and Peaceful

Snapton drove to a building and said to herself, "This is it!" She had been stuck in traffic for nearly half an hour.

She drove the car into the underground parking lot.

In fact, she complained a little about Link asking her to come and contact Meiya Culture Media. The case of Springs Pharmaceutical, which she has been working on for more than half a year, has reached a critical moment, but Link insists that she personally convey a meaning. She thought that such a small thing could be done with just a fax. As a result, she wasted nearly an hour to arrive in person.

However, Link took it and told her: "The Chinese are quite face-conscious. "If you send a fax, it seems insincere.

She found a parking space, parked her car, and took the elevator directly from the parking lot to the floor she was going to.

When she got out of the elevator, she saw the signs of American Chinese TV and American Chinese Network. That's a Chinese sign.

She walked over to the Chinese female front desk and said, "I'm Teresa Snatton." I made an appointment with Chairman Jiang to meet at 10 o'clock. ”

The front desk asked her to wait, and then dialed the phone and asked the president's secretary to confirm that there was indeed an appointment before pointing her the way.

She walked into the president's office and saw a Chinese man in his fifties, who was the chairman Jiang she wanted to meet.

After the tea, Chairman Jiang asked her, "Miss Snatton, you said on the phone that you were entrusted by Mr. Hans to talk to me, and I don't know what Mr. Hans wants to talk to me." ”

Snapton smiled and said, "Mr. Jiang, Mr. Hans asked me to ask if he has the possibility of taking a stake in Meiya Culture Media Group." If he could, he would like to get 10 to 15 percent of the group's shares. ”

Jiang Dong's brows moved slightly, and he said, "May I ask, did Mr. Hans say why he thinks we will sell the shares?"

"I don't know about that. Snathorn said with a smile. Perhaps Mr. Chiang had also heard that Mr. Hans had sought to cooperate with Chinese television on the West Coast. As a result, the negotiations were unilaterally terminated by the other party. I think he still wants to make a difference in Chinese-language media. ”

Jiang Dong nodded with a smile at her explanation and said, "I already understand what Mr. Hans means. However, I will need to discuss with the Board of Directors whether I can accept Mr. Hans as a member of our group. ”

"That's the way it should be!" both Snapton and Link knew that the other party could not give an answer right away. She nodded. "Then I'll wait for Mr. Jiang's good news!"

After Snapton left, Jiang Dong frowned and pondered. He didn't know if Link suddenly came to the door and said that he wanted to become a shareholder of Meiya Culture Group, whether he got the news that Meiya Group wanted financing. If so, who leaked the news to Link?

In the eyes of the Chinese, Link belongs to the western Chinese.

Of course, the western Chinese and the eastern Chinese cannot be said to be hostile, but the competition with each other is still obvious. There are so many Chinese in the United States. In fact, many Chinese businesses are mainly aimed at Chinese. In particular, these Chinese TV stations are mainly oriented to Chinese.

The Chinese in the west are mainly immigrants in the early days, while the Chinese in the east are mainly immigrants after the sixties of the last century.

It can be said that there are differences between the Chinese in the East and the West in many ways.

For example, in the unreliable coming to power, there is the credit of the Chinese in the west. They believe that they have lived in the United States for generations, have American citizenship, and that the newcomers have indeed robbed them of their opportunities – including the growing number of Chinese immigrants. So they feel that unreliable immigration policies can protect their interests. So they voted for unreliable.

The Chinese in the east, on the other hand, do not think so. Many of them even only hold green cards, which is unreliable and should be denied entry. And other Chinese, even if they have obtained American citizenship, still have obvious immigrant marks on their bodies. So they are concerned about unreliable immigration policies.

Of course, that also made some leading people in the Chinese in the United States pay attention to the ideological split between the East and the West, and they have been calling for unity among the Chinese people in recent years. It just doesn't seem to have much effect.

And some perceptive people are certainly aware of this, or they are also deliberately distinguishing between the Chinese in the East and the West.

Although Jiang Dong did not have a clear distinction between the eastern and western Chinese, he thought that Link wanted to buy the West Coast Chinese TV station before, and he wanted an absolute controlling stake. It was Link's ambition that made the Huang family intervene in it.

Now that he wants to take a stake in Meiya Media, will he also have the goal of ultimate control?

Meiya Media was founded by his father, and it took more than 30 years of hard work by the Jiang family to develop to this scale. Meiya Media has not only become the largest Chinese-language media group in the East, but also has a faint trend of becoming the No. 1 in the United States. This is the core business of his family, if he loses the leading position of the group. Their family's status in the Chinese community will definitely decline a lot. That's not something that money can make up for.

He certainly didn't want to see it fall into the hands of someone else.

However, if Link is allowed to take a stake, it can also give Meiya Media greater confidence to expand.

Link has a bank and is well-funded. If Link becomes a shareholder, it will be much easier for Mayer Media to take out a loan when it needs money. Of course, if Link is too ambitious, he may have fallen into Link's trap.

So Jiang Dong wanted to refuse.

It's just that in the financing plan he formulated, he contacted many Chinese, and they were not eager. The main reason is that those option shares have no decision-making power, and if Mayer Media continues to expand, there may not be a dividend for five years. Some people who want to invest also have to think carefully about it.

In fact, he has already formulated a financing plan, but it has not been implemented so far, mainly because the board of directors has not yet reached an agreement.

Some shareholders believe that expanding the station's distribution network is too risky. They believe that not only will they not be able to pay dividends in five years, but they are more likely to increase operating costs and cause losses.

To put it bluntly, those shareholders know that Meiya Media belongs to their Jiang family, and they hold the shares of Meiya Media just to get dividends, and at the same time, they can use this channel to do publicity when needed.

Judging from the current situation, Meiya Media Group really does not need to expand.

But for the Jiang family, if they do not expand American Chinese television, they will always be a local television station. For the Jiang family, not making progress is regressing. The main influence of the Jiang family is this media company, and the biggest influence of the media is still television. If they want to have a higher status in the United States, they must let their sphere of influence continue to expand.

In Chiang's plan, within five years, the television station should gradually expand its reach to six states in the northeast, and then Meiya Media can try to reach the white market. But that would require money, and there has never been a precedent for a Chinese-language television station to successfully open up the white market, and the directors will certainly have an opinion.

At this time, the Chinese market alone simply cannot make TV stations profitable. To make a profit, shareholders would have to agree to increase white-oriented programming. So this financing is just the first step in his plan.

It's just that difficulties arose in the implementation of his plan in the first step. This is a conflict between the interests of their Jiang family and the interests of other shareholders. And he's at a disadvantage.

Of course, that financing plan does not mean that it will not be approved. He and his supporters were still able to grudgingly get the plan through. The problem is that even if it is reluctantly approved, the shareholder who holds about half of the shares does not contribute to the purchase of the newly issued shares, and his plan will still fail.

And now Link suddenly appeared, and he grabbed another opportunity. It's just that he is worried that Link's capital will leave Meiya Media behind.

He wasn't sure if it was worth the risk. This made him hesitate.

Link, who made Jiang Dong entangled, flew back to Mora Manor early in the morning. He is now playing in the yard with Hannah to make up for not being with her for the past few days.

Hannah had a cold today, and although it wasn't serious, Link still called the school to ask for leave, and also told Alyssa that Hannah wouldn't be going to her today.

He didn't dare to let Hannah play for too long, and seeing that she was starting to sweat on her forehead, he told her to hurry to the shower. lest you catch a cold. Then sit directly on the grass next to Jessica's chair.

"The sun is so nice today!"

Jessica glanced at the sky and said, "It might be raining again." The water vapor in the air seems to be very thick. "The water vapor filters out some of the ultraviolet rays and makes the sun less scorching.

Link sat up straight and reached out to touch her belly, and said, "Are the two little ones okay these days?"

"It's good, I can feel them moving a lot. ”

"In more than four months, they will come out. It's a little incredible to think about!" He didn't participate in Hannah's birth, which was a lifelong regret for him. It was an indescribable satisfaction to be by his side now to be by his children as they grew up in their mother's womb. "I wonder if they'll be more like you or more like me?"

"I'll love them anyway. Jessica said as she gently shook his hand. "Mom called me yesterday. ”

"Huh?"

"She asked us when we planned to get married!"

Link looked up into her eyes and noticed that her eyes were a little dodgy. The corners of his mouth slowly opened and said, "So you want to get married?"

Jessica said in shame, "I just told you that my mom asked." I told her there was no hurry. ”

Seeing that she was still stiff-mouthed, Link stopped teasing her, and said, "Didn't you say that I was going to give you a marriage proposal that would satisfy you before you agreed to me?" I'll think of that soon. He said and gently rubbed her belly. "And, now that you're like this, I don't dare to make you tired because of marriage. ”

Jessica pursed her lips and smiled slightly, revealing a little happiness that could not be concealed.

They laugh in the sun.

After a while, Hannah took a shower and ran out again. She saw Link touching Jessica's belly and ran over and said, "Daddy, is my brother and sister moving again?

Jessica pulled her to her side and smiled and said, "Hannah is here to talk to her younger siblings!"
