Chapter 146: Acquisition of Shueisha
Wealth and power are not the same thing. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć ļ½ļ½ļ½ļ½
Mitarai's fortune is about 100 billion yen, but through the company, the wealth that can be directly controlled is as high as nearly one trillion yen. That's the difference between wealth and power.
If you want to roughly analyze, his power comes from three parts, one is the assets of the real estate company, the second is the assets controlled by the Soga consortium, and the third is the assets of his own scattered investment.
A share like Kabayakiya can be given away to repay other people's favors, and Mitarai is still happy to do it, after all, his life is more valuable; But the other party asked Shueisha, which is a subsidiary of the consortium, so it was a bit troublesome.
Li Shanhe shrugged his shoulders and said, "Although it is difficult, I believe you can solve it." ā
Not a big sycophant, Mitarai looked up to the sky and smiled: "Ha, that's right, it's just a few hundred million, no matter how troublesome it is, it's nothing more than a restructuring of assets......"
As he was talking, the gold wire glasses brought the Shueisha asset list, and Mitarai just took a look at it, and couldn't help blurting out: "Why are there so many!" ā¦ā¦ā
Li Shanhe looked at him curiously, wasn't he still full of confidence just now, why did he change his mind in the blink of an eye?
Sighing, Mitarai just handed over the list of assets, and said with a complicated look in his eyes: "You made Shueisha swell too much......"
In his impression, Shueisha is a waste wood nursing home, although in the past few months, the company has developed rapidly, but it will not be too much......
Who would have thought that a closer look would reveal that Shueisha's valuation has now exceeded 3 billion yen!
The gold-wired glasses explained on the side:
"Shueisha's profit mainly comes from "Shonen Jump", and the sales volume of each issue has reached 1.1 million, the profit of a single volume is about 12 yen, and the annual profit is expected to be 500 million; With the sales of Shogakukan's "Shonen Sunday" plummeting, the consortium may not be able to easily hand over Shueisha's shares. ā
Damn, it seems to be clumsy!
Looking at the black "3 billion" typing on the asset list, Li Shanhe had a feeling of lifting a stone to shoot himself in the foot.
Who would have thought that one day he would have the opportunity to join Shueisha...... I wouldn't have played so big if I knew it wouldn't have been! Blow up Shueisha's balloons too hard!
"Now, Shueisha is still eager to increase the price, and it can be doubled to 78 yen, which would be an annual profit of 1 billion; If your single comic book is released and listed, it will soar again, and it is likely that the overall price will reach 10 billion in the end. ā
There is a simple formula for valuation, multiplying the annual profit by 10. Not very accurate, but it can be used to estimate such a low-risk volume as the printing industry.
The entire Soga consortium is only a few hundred billion, 3 billion is already close to their bottom line, and 10 billion is absolutely impossible to give away in vain!
Li Shanhe secretly glanced at Mitarai Gang's face, which was as black as the bottom of the pot. There will be no problem with him just letting go, and then he will be slapped in the face, it's strange that his face can be good!
After a long time, Mitarai sighed just now, and suddenly laughed out loud, and said, "It's really amazing, Li Jun!" I didn't expect you to be able to leverage such a huge industry, I really underestimated you before. ā
"Then you see ......"
Mitarai shook his head and said frankly, "Ten billion, which is beyond the scope of my power as the head of the Soga family. Even if it's 3 billion now, it's unlikely, it's not a secret, I wanted to buy this company and give it to you, but the available liquidity in my personal hands is only about one billion. ā
Corporate property and personal property are not the same thing, while property and liquid cash are not the same.
The richest man admits that he doesn't have enough financial resources, what else can Li Shanhe say?
"Well, then, let me make another request."
"Say it. As long as I can, I'll do my best to make it up to you. ā
"I heard that you only see Apricot three or five times a year?"
Mitarai's eyebrows jumped suddenly, and his face immediately sank.
The golden wire glasses were keenly aware of his boss's unhappiness, he raised his glasses and looked at the young man in front of him gushing.
I knew that this guy was stupid, and he wanted to use the opportunity of hundreds of millions of yen to discuss other people's family affairs? Sick in the head?
"I hope you can spend more time with Apricot in the future. Well...... 1 day a week is fine. No matter how busy you are, it's easy to take this time, what do you think? ā
It's only 50 days a year, and it's really a problem to shirk it again.
This guy really said it!
The gold-wire glasses felt as if the air in the room was condensing, and there was a feeling that a storm was coming. He swallowed and spat, you want to die yourself, don't drag me! A sucker!
"I gave you a generous contract to take care of Apricot. It's not for you to teach me a lesson! Young man, don't be too arrogant! ā
Li Shanhe looked at him without showing weakness: "I'm doing this for the good of apricots!" Nothing can replace my father. Do you have time to meet women in the office of the Tokyo headquarters and have no time to take care of your own daughter? ā
"Bastard! What are you talking about? ā
"It's not what I said, it's Kyoko who saw it with her own eyes."
"Humph!"
Mitarai stood up violently, and just when Li Shanhe thought he was going to be angry, who thought that he would come over and take back Shueisha's asset list and slapped it in front of the gold wire glasses.
"The Shuei Society is under your name, Hibiki, you go to divide the Shuei Society and force the acquisition, and you are responsible for this matter!"
"Hey!"
Wait a minute!?
Would you rather spend a lot of money to divide Shueisha than spend a little time every week with your daughter?
What kind of daddy are you?!
Mitarai just strode away, and opened the paper door to leave.
Li Shanhe hurriedly shouted: "Mitarai!" Is Apricot really your real daughter? Why are you so cold-blooded! ā
He shouted!
Really shouted!
The gold wire glasses shrunk their necks, and some people had laughed at them behind their backs before, the difference between the appearance of their father and daughter was too big, who would have thought that it would reach Mitarai's ears, and the next day the whole family would evaporate!
This guy who doesn't know the height of the sky is dead!
Mitarai just paused, his back was restless, he turned his head slightly, and glanced at Li Shanhe.
Li Shanhe felt his body stiffen, as if he was being targeted by a beast, what kind of eyes were they, full of bloodshots, full of irrepressible anger, hatred, and a little ...... Sad?
It wasn't until the gold wire glasses pushed him that he shivered and recovered from his stiffness, only to realize that Mitarai had been gone for an unknown amount of time.
The ...... just now Is it the aura of a big man? I really asked a question that shouldn't be asked......
Golden Wire Glasses Says:
"Mr. Li, you are amazing."
"What did you say?"
"Keep asking questions about the relationship between Mr. Mitarai and his daughter, and successfully force the president to spend a lot of money to compensate you financially." He shook his head and admired, "You have really reached the peak of my people's heart, and I am deeply impressed." ā
Li Shanhe frowned: "I really want to make Apricot happy." ā
The gold wire glasses smiled and said nothing, come on, hundreds of millions of yen for the smiling face of a little girl, unless you are Lolicon.
Forget it, it doesn't make sense with this guy.
"Mitarai-samai asked me to help you buy Shueisha, can I explain it now?"
Li Shanhe nodded: "We've met many times, what should I call you?" ā
"My name is Xiao Dong Tai, you can just call me Xiang Tai." The gold wire glasses didn't care, and took out the list of assets, "I take the liberty of asking, how much cash can you take out now?" ā
"Twenty or thirty million...... If it is a loan, it will probably be more than 100 million. Li Shanhe thought for a while and said, "If you spend too much money, forget it, I will need to spend a lot of money after a while." ā
"It's all the same, Shueisha has a valuation of 3 billion at worst, and tens of millions are no different from 100 million."
Golden Silk Glasses thought for a while: "There are two ways now, one is to seize Shueisha's weakness and knock down its valuation. ā
"Weakness?"
"The weakness of Shueisha is that it relies on you too much." Golden Wire Glasses analyzed, "Without your work, "Shonen Jump" is not to be afraid. You just have to find an excuse to pause the update for a few months, and let out the rumors that you will change jobs and wait for the sales of Shonen Jump to drop back...... However, this may be a legal sideshow, suspected of insider trading. But as far as I think, the law only takes care of the operator, and you should be able to get out of it. ā
Li Shanhe frowned, although this method was immediate, it was too unprofessional.
There is no morality in front of the capitalists, and he thinks for a moment and says, "What about the second method?" ā
"The second way is financial operation. First split Shueisha normally, and then have each shareholder sign an unconditional mandatory repurchase contract. After the board of directors has done a bit of work, you can get more than half of the shares, which is for the purpose of control. ā
Li Shanhe nodded, this looks more reliable, the disadvantage is that he makes less money, but his influence has not decreased.
"And how many shares do I get?"
"Mr. Mitarai is the largest shareholder, and he will get about 16% of the shares, and he will transfer all this part to you."
16% is too little. Although he is the largest shareholder, Li Shanhe, as an outsider, has no right to speak at all.
"16% is just the basic handicap, and if you combine some people, you can get another 20%, but you need to spend money to buy it...... If you threaten to stop the update, you should be able to bargain to less than 300 million. ā
Li Shanhe smiled bitterly: "Money is not a problem...... The problem is that there is no money. ā
Moreover, 36% is too little!
"36% is not a lot at all." Golden Silk Glasses shook his head, "Shueisha's profits are amazing, you can use the company's funds to carry out a forced share repurchase after a year, and the total outstanding share capital is less, and the proportion of each share increases...... This will allow your stake to rise above 50% and you will succeed in winning the majority. ā
Oh? And this trick?
Li Shanhe's heart moved, it sounded good.
"The key is to get the position of chairman, otherwise you don't count what you say about the company's operation. 36% is a very strong number, and I will guide you during this period, and in a year's time, you will have Shueisha. ā
Li Shanhe thought about it for a while, and finally nodded, and decided to take a chance: "Then please, Mr. Xiaodong." ā
"Don't thank me, that's the president's order." Jinsi Glasses raised the beam of the glasses, "You don't have to worry about the 300 million funds, I will help you raise it, a three-to-ten-year loan, as long as you repay it on time." Come to think of it, this money will be easy for you at that time. ā
What a good assistant!
Li Shanhe couldn't help but sigh, this is a senior talent! I lack such a person to assist!
"Oh...... By the way, please cancel the game between you and Shogakukan. "According to the agreement, "Young HereWeGo! If you merge into Shonen Jump, you will be digging up half of the foundation of Shogakukan and increasing the variables of acquisition. Now what you want to do is get Shueisha as cheaply as possible, instead of making it more expensive, what do you think? ā
Li Shanhe nodded: "That's fine." I'll talk to the editor when I get back. When did the partition begin? ā
"It's going to be a couple of weeks, after you win."
Even so, Li Shanhe made up his mind that in the end, he still had to win the other party first, and then when the other party cried and begged for mercy, he generously waived the merger clause and brushed himself with a wave of favorability.
Hmm, if only I could fool these fools in the future...... It can also be acquired cheaply, and it can merge with each other's magazines......
It's a pity that there is no such thing as a double world.
After the discussion, the two shook hands, and at this time, the proprietress of the restaurant took the packaged food, and the sound of plastic bags rattling was placed in a large pile.
Li Shanhe knew that he should leave, he got up and suddenly said, "Mr. Xiaodong, can you tell me, why does Mr. Mitarai obviously like apricots very much, but he doesn't often look at her?" ā
Xiao Xiangtai raised his gold-rimmed glasses: "This is Mr. Mitarai's family affair, and I can't tell you without his permission." ā
Tut.
Li Shanhe nodded goodbye to him, and then left with a large bag and a small bag.
Returning to "Silver Paris" the same way, two stupid black bodyguards closed the door, and a golden nightclub scene came into view, returning to the civilized world.
When the enchanting proprietress saw Li Shanhe come out, she came over with a smile and gave a card: "Mr. Li, you are here again." Do you want to call someone to accompany you for a drink? ā
Li Shanhe shook his head with a smile and refused: "No, I'm just passing by." I can't afford such an upscale place. ā
The proprietress chuckled, "It is the honor of our store that Mr. Li can come." This is the VIP card of our store, with the card consumption is free, please come to the party often in the future. ā
Free of charge?
Li Shanhe was confused, there was such a good thing? Kakuei Tanaka is such a big person, and I have to hang the bill, even if I am handsome, I won't have this qualification, right?
Forget it, think about it for a long time.
He put the card in hand, and the extended Bentley was still outside the door, and sent him home the way he came.
This time the harvest was very big, and the beans of the Kabayakiya were eaten and taken home, and they were brought home to a large company.
It's a pity that the problem with the apricots hasn't been solved yet.
In his previous life, Li Shanhe had also seen reports on left-behind children in rural areas in newspapers. Unexpectedly, there was also a left-behind child in the family of this rich man.
Apricots, it's so pitiful, even if it's very beautiful and cute, but it lacks normal fatherly love. Growing up under the care of bodyguards and female classmates, Li Shanhe asked himself, if he was in this situation, he could only become more bearish.
He took out the key and opened the door, and Apricot, who was bored reading the newspaper on the sofa, immediately pricked up her ears and pounced with cheers.
Fortunately, Li Shanhe has practiced, otherwise he would definitely fall on all sides this time.
"I hate it, why did you come back so late, Apricot is so scared alone." Apricot rubbed hard in her arms and said coquettishly.
"Isn't Jiro here?"
Jiro didn't speak at all, he couldn't even chat, he was bored to death. Apricot just misses you, don't you dare to miss apricots? ā
Li Shanhe touched the head of the apricot, and smiled apologetically.
It's not her fault that she's naughty, she's still young and has the possibility of correcting herself.
I'm going to get her back on track, he thought.
