Chapter 51 Funding Issues (II)
A publishing house that has existed for 20 years is now worth only 1.4 billion yen, which cannot but embarrass Yoshishi Kubo, a longtime employee. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info
At 1.4 billion yen, the investment in a slightly high-quality animated film is higher than this figure.
Yuki Miyahara saved up a family foundation for an animated film in one or two decades.
"I didn't take into account the copyright value of a potential comic like fate, otherwise the value of Hibiscus Society would definitely be able to increase some." Yoshishi Kubo defended again, in fact, he wanted to say that the rapid loss of Hibiscus Society's assets was only a matter of recent years, but the reality is that first, this kind of explanation is meaningless.
Fixed assets, copyright value, working capital, the approximate valuation of the entire Hibiscus Society is only 1.4 billion...... In fact, Miyahara Jing is quite satisfied with this figure, 1.4 billion yen is already a lot, there is a good starting platform, and there is a ten-figure start-up capital, which can completely become the basis for him to build a two-dimensional empire.
It is estimated that this starting point can outperform 87.6 percent of the time-travelers.
"Editor-in-Chief Kubo, I made the decision to take out a loan from the bank out of necessity, and you may not believe it, but at least I think that if Hibiscus Society wants to expand its scale and influence, it is best to start now, this is the last chance." Although Yoshishi Kubo had already been persuaded by Yuichi Miyahara, Shizuzu Miyahara decided to explain her thoughts to him a little.
"Last chance?"
Yoshishi Kubo repeated Miyahara's words, people of his age are not sensitive to the development of the medium, but he can faintly feel that the manga publishing industry is a little restless, and Miyahara Shizu's own actions also carry a sense of urgency, this sense of urgency can be reflected from the time he began to take charge of the affairs of Hibiscus Society, especially after the crisis of Simiel was basically resolved, Miyahara Shizune quickly invested limited funds in the animation industry, and for this reason, he "let go" the betrayal of Koyama Takama and his girls' high school, and now that the dust has just settled on the animation, he immediately started to borrow money from the bank.
There is also an increase in the circulation of the next issue of Simiel......
Yoshishi Kubo didn't ask Miyahara how she made this judgment, and the acting president's idea of the so-called last chance was right or wrong, but it does explain the urgency of his actions, and it is true that he is taking the Hibiscus Society to be aggressive, even if it is not the last chance, but now with high-quality comics, it is indeed a good opportunity for the Hibiscus Society to recover.
This kind of aggressiveness may be the reason why Yuichi Miyahara supports his son with all his might, even a little blindly.
Later, Shinji Miyahara sent another call, and tomorrow Kyosuke Fujiwara would come and meet them at Hibiscus Society.
The next morning, Miyahara met this Fujiwara-san.
Kyosuke Fujiwara is a middle-aged man in his forties, with a Chinese face, and with a certain aura, although he can't say "don't enter the living", but at least he seems to be a person who doesn't like to talk much.
In fact, he was really concise and to the point, from introducing himself at the door to getting the asset materials of the Hibiscus Society, he didn't say a total of ten words.
Then he left Miyahara there and began to look through the materials.
This made Miyahara very depressed, and he began to wonder if this person was still in the depressed period of unemployment.
"Fujiwara-san, is there anything wrong with the material?"
"Yes, very professional and detailed." Fujiwara said.
Here, I would like to thank Vice President Kubo for his preparation, otherwise Miyahara Shizune would not have been able to start with his first request to Fujiwara Kyosuke.
Since Fujiwara was introduced by Shinji Miyahara, Miyahara Jing didn't have any distrust problems, so he was able to generously hand over the financial details of the Hibiscus Society.
Besides, although the family left SoftBank, they used to follow Yasumoto Masayoshi, so they didn't have any intentions against a small family like Hibiscus Society.
And there is one thing that Miyahara Jing admires Fujiwara Kyosuke, that is, he has not questioned Miyahara Jing's age, since Miyahara Jing said that he is the president, then he treats Miyahara Jing with the attitude of the president, which is not intended to satisfy the latter.
This is the first time Miyahara has received this kind of treatment.
"There are a few more questions I want to know about."
"Please."
"First, how much money does the Hibiscus Society want to get?"
"The bottom line is 800 million yen, and the more the better." Miyahara Jing had already said this, and he opened his mouth to report the figure of 800 million.
Kyosuke Fujiwara nodded, then asked a second question.
"Second, I know that the main business of the Hibiscus Society is to run a semi-monthly magazine named Similil, and the information says that its circulation is 100,000 copies, is this circulation a stable circulation?"
Hey, don't you have any questions about the number 800 million? Looking at his resolute appearance, Miyahara Jing felt that the bottom line was set a little low?
But now he can't think about it, he immediately nodded, and then said, "Yes, 100,000 is a conservative number, starting from the next issue, we will try to increase the issuance." ”
"What about the additional issuance?"
"The tentative decision is to increase the number to 130,000 copies, and the specific details will be fine-tuned according to the situation."
Miyahara also roughly understands that Simari's current additional issuance may be a favorable condition for getting a large amount of loans, which at least shows that the business conditions of Hibiscus Society are rising.
"Third, do you have any deadlines?"
"The sooner the better." Miyahara said.
"Fourth, do you have any specific requirements on which bank to choose for the loan? The First Bank? Sakura Bank? Fuji Bank? ”
Miyahara Jing thought for a while, and then said: "No, we don't have any requirements for which bank to choose, it's all up to Fujiwara-san to decide, and even if the interest rate is a little higher, it's not unacceptable, but I only have one request, that is, to avoid the bank's monitoring of the flow of this loan, I want complete autonomy over the loan control, if there is ' in the bank loan conditions." The loan funds can only be used for the expansion of the Hibiscus Society's own operations', then the bank has to exclude it, because I may take some of the funds out of the loan and invest it in other ways. ”
This is crucial, and if the loan is not at its disposal, then more than half of the meaning is lost.
But he also knows that it is actually very difficult to get this kind of condition, since the bank is willing to lend, so in order to avoid enterprises abusing the loan and resulting in no repayment when due, they will naturally set the direction of the use of the loan gently, and will review it regularly.
How to avoid this condition Miyahara Jing didn't understand, so he would find a professional like Kyosuke Fujiwara.
After saying these words, Miyahara Jing was ready to be questioned in detail by Fujiwara Kyosuke, but the other party's answer was only one sentence.
"I see."
Miyahara Jing was stunned for a moment, this is not scientific, don't you have a little defense and no worries.
Well, he is only responsible for the loan, and it is his business whether the Hibiscus Society can repay the loan on time.
"I already understand the situation and requirements, so I'll go about it, and I'll take this material with me." As if he had learned everything he wanted to know, Kyosuke Fujiwara immediately stood up and prepared to leave.
To be honest, Miyahara Jing likes to deal with people who are so resolute in doing things, but he also goes too far, right? That's it all for a few words?
"Nothing else is needed?"
"Any questions? There will definitely be a lot of things going on after you get into the loan process, and I will keep in touch with you at any time. ”
Miyahara Jing felt that something very complicated, for a person like Fujiwara, was familiar with the road, or just a small matter like a loan, which was too difficult compared to the various mergers and investment cases he had dealt with before.
"One more thing, if the bank has a process for asset review, please let us know in advance." Miyahara Shizune hurriedly added, he had to speak faster, and Fujiwara's front feet had already stepped out of the office.
"Got it." Fujiwara stopped, and then, as if remembering something, said to Miyahara Shizune, "By the way, about my reward......"
Then Miyahara Jing heard a gratuity that made him vomit blood, if the loan can't get 800 million yen, of course Fujiwara won't get paid, if he gets 800 million yen, then Fujiwara's basic remuneration is 20 million, and every time the amount increases by 100 million in the future, his remuneration will increase by 10 million, and less than 100 million will not be charged.
This is a bank robbery, so Miyahara gritted his teeth and said:
"No problem!"
Well, he agreed.
First, with Shinji Miyahara as the introducer, he didn't think Fujiwara would cheat him; Second, through the personality analysis shown by Kyosuke Fujiwara who has just come into contact with him, Miyahara Jing doesn't think that he can bargain with Fujiwara on the matter of fundraising, if he has to insist, then the result is likely to be that the remuneration cannot be reduced, and it will only make people feel that it is not atmospheric at all, and third, Fujiwara Kyosuke is extremely confident, which makes Miyahara Jing feel that this kind of thing is just a matter of getting a mortgage for him.
In fact, Miyahara Jing can't help at all in the loan process, or this matter is not practical for him, and the things he can handle will be handled better by Yoshishi Kubo, as for what he can't handle, then Miyahara Yuichi, the legal representative of the company, needs to come forward, and it will not be his turn.
So Miyahara Jing has to admit that he is a character who moves his mouth and gives orders, and he has to rely on others to really implement it.
