Chapter 53: All or Nothing, A Moment of Leisure
When he first arrived in the United States, Lin Yi's funds were less than $1 million. In the past month, the company and factory have been removed, and there is 2 million cash on the account. It was originally a happy event, but compared with 20 million, it was a bit of a trivial.
He was the first to ask Hong Kong: "How much money can the publishing house mobilize?"
Qiao Anbang is really powerful: "The Hong Kong dollar is about 1 million. In addition, the Japanese copyright of "Rogue Player" sold for $300,000. Combined, it equals $500,000. ”
It took six months from the Hong Kong Book Fair to the sale of the rights! As for English copyright, there has been no movement. However, this is normal. Casually pasted patents, that's an opportunity.
Qiao Anbang has not finished speaking: "The "Rogue Player" comic, the Japanese side introduced it at the same time, and signed an 8% sharing agreement. However, the money had to be paid in installments, and it was not possible to get it for a while. ”
After encouraging his subordinates, Lin Yi put down the phone. The United States and Hong Kong, the two places combined, the money is still too little! Lin Yi can't help but hope that it would be great if all customers paid without delay!
Continue to call, this time to the securities company: "Senior Brother Jin, how is my stock?"
"Equities have been mostly weak in recent times. And your stock has been rising steadily, congratulations!"
Lin Yi scratched his ears and cheeks: "What about the specific number?"
"Remove the leveraged borrowing, just 10 million Hong Kong paper!"
The news is very good, another $2 million! Immediately, Lin Yi wanted to sell his shares.
However, Senior Brother Jin reminded him of the reminder: "Li Ka-shing is a bull stock, and many investors have found it." So, it's not a problem to sell! But you have to be careful, if you want to buy it back in the future, I'm afraid it won't be so easy! If you're short of money, you can try a mortgage. ”
Lin Yi flipped through his notebook and found the HSBC phone number.
However, as soon as he reported his name, he didn't wait for the request to be said, and the other side grabbed the conversation: "Lin Sheng's customer level has been greatly improved." Please provide your address and our account manager will provide door-to-door service. ”
Lin Yi said helplessly: "I'm in the United States." ”
"Rest assured, there is an HSBC branch over there. ”
In the evening, HSBC's relationship manager came to the door to complete the formalities. This kind of VIP treatment, Lin Yi is really the first time!
"Mr. Lin, your liquid assets have exceeded $1 million. We, at HSBC, will provide private banking services. ”
After asking clearly, Lin Yi learned that bonds, stocks, and cash are all liquid assets. If he hadn't found someone, with his current value, he would have been able to upgrade his level a long time ago.
"Later, we will send an advisor. Whether it is a loan or a financial management, he will provide you with professional services. “
"I'm afraid I can't wait, the loan is more urgent. ”
"If that's the case, this service can only be done by me. ”
The financial environment has improved, coupled with the strong cash flow, so the company's valuation has skyrocketed. Also, it's easier to get a loan and the interest is lower. It seems that all of a sudden, good things have come to the door.
After urgent negotiations, Xiaoxin Food Company, Qiao's Publishing House, and Cheung Kong Stocks pledged $4 million. A credit loan of 1 million, with a short term and high interest, Lin Yi didn't ask for it. The customer's final payment note was sold to Fu Fei Yan and received $500,000.
The funds raised, all combined, amounted to $7 million. It was only one-third of the goal of 20 million! The joy of soaring assets was washed away in an instant.
At this moment, the account manager reminded him: "You took out a loan to expand the factory. Your company's products are now selling hot in the market. As long as the order is presented, we can provide another loan. ”
Lin Yi explained: "In order to seize the market, we first burst production capacity and then carry out marketing. It seems that we can only wait for the order to arrive and then solve this problem!"
Sending the banker away, Lin Yi fell into deep thought. The current situation is really desperate. Once the capital chain is broken, it is bankrupt!
However, for both games, he is full of confidence. That's why I dare to bet on all my net worth. Everything has been done, no matter what the outcome, there is no need to be annoyed and regretful.
After all the effort, it is inevitable that you will be exhausted. Lin Yi picked up his girlfriend and went on a spring trip together.
Mountain View is small, just a few streets. The population is also small, probably less than 50,000. Such a place, if it were in China, could only be called a town.
However, the scenery is really great because it is surrounded by mountains and seas, and when the spring flowers are blooming. In the distance, the Santa Cruz Mountains are filled with pale blue clouds. San Francisco Bay, dotted with white sails, is stunning!
In the 70s of the 20th century, the bikini storm was sweeping the United States. The environment is like this, and the girl is no longer shy and changes into a glamorous swimsuit. The charm of the environment opened the girl's heart. Even if you are intimate in public, you can accept it with a red face.
The water temperature in San Francisco Bay is around 15 degrees all year round. So, even in spring, it is not difficult to go to the sea.
The mermaid-like girl not only surrounds her boyfriend, laughing and playing flexibly, but also dives underwater from time to time to get some new and interesting gadgets.
It's a pity that Lin Yi can't fight back. He wasn't flexible enough to catch the Little Mermaid. When diving, I always can't hold my breath and can't keep up with the slender figure. The two fought and quarreled, and their relationship became more and more harmonious.
How can you not go up the mountain after getting off work? Spring is full of joy, and the scenery on the mountain is more pleasant.
Climbing up a hillside, it's a bit like Badaling, but without the Great Wall. The slope is not steep, and the green and tender grass makes people lie down unconsciously.
Hugging, deep kissing, everything is so natural.
The love for each other is conveyed to each other through the breeze and through the grass blanket.
At this time, there is no sound, but there is a spirit in the heart. Exhaustion, swept away.
It's a pity that the wonderful time is not always long!
The company is in a critical period, and it is okay to take a moment of leisure, but it is not possible to fish for a long time.
After solving the production capacity, it's time to find an order, and now it's the advertising time.
Phelan reminded: "Brand promotion also has a scale effect. Concentrating propaganda resources is better than dispersing firepower. You see those big companies, why do they chase the big stars, instead of distributing their resources to 10 small stars?"
Lin Yi said that he understood, and then spent a huge amount of money to sign a large advertising company. Although the money is like water, the whole marketing plan is definitely much more effective than thin advertising.
In addition, Lin Yi took a camera, visited bars, casinos, and filmed game areas everywhere. These hot scenes were sent to advertising agencies and cut into a documentary. Compared to beautiful ads, the picture quality is much worse. However, after the dealers saw it, the effect was much better than the advertisement.
He joked with his girlfriend: "The beautiful picture is disdainful by the businessman, and the small money in it is worthy of their attention." ”
