I returned to 704 in the evening, and Concubine Yue, who had played for a day, also returned.
"Sister Yue, you're going to get rich again."
"Really, you've got you set up a company?"
Her words made Xiao Yifei dizzy:
"What company?"
"That's what I told you a few days ago, invest tens of millions of dollars to buy a house in a Chinese area, and then set up an intermediary company to manage and rent them."
"Oh, you said that, I don't think that's a good idea."
"And what do you mean?"
"I want to buy a suite in Beverly Park, you can help me find it."
"Is that the neighborhood you went to that day? That Beverly Park where Lei Shidong lives? ”
"Yes, yes, there it is."
Concubine Yue grinned.
"The houses there are tens of millions of mansions."
"You want to inquire for me."
"That's right, you buy hundreds of millions of stocks now, and it's no problem to live in that kind of house."
On the second day of negotiations, everyone was more cautious, because everyone knew that either today or tomorrow, an agreement would be reached. Even the two people from the China Securities Regulatory Commission, who have not been on the road for more than a week, appeared in the conference room, which shows that this is not wishful thinking on Xiao Yifei's side, but a consensus that everyone has.
Today's CBS stock continued yesterday's decline, perhaps because Lei Shidong felt that his small actions were discovered, and he stopped, or maybe he stopped for other reasons. Anyway, due to the intensive smashing action at the end of yesterday, giving the outside world an illusion, it opened directly low this morning, and then the stock price has been falling steadily.
As soon as the stock market closed, Xiao Yifei calculated and finally spoke for the first time in so many days:
"In this way, 1.5 million A shares remain unchanged. Well, today's close is 13.55, so let's take the midpoint between it and the original quote of $12. $12.775 for it. After so many days, everyone is tired. Quote the price to Mr. Summer. ”
Andrew, who was on the other side, thought about it and didn't go out, so he took the phone from his seat and reported Xiao Yifei's offer. Then he was silent, probably waiting for Lei Shidong's thinking to give the final result. Everyone in the conference room stared at him, hoping to see something from the look on his face.
Soon he hung up:
Mr. Lei Shidong agreed to the offer.
His words made everyone in the room breathe a long sigh of relief, if it weren't for the wrong occasion, I believe some people would have started cheering. All of a sudden there was applause. Some people stood up and shook hands with each other, and some people even stretched their long lazy waists.
After a moment of commotion, the CBS personnel in Los Angeles left, and they had to urgently set up a conference room to come out as a venue for a small signing ceremony. The lawyers on both sides got together, filled in the amount and number of shares, printed out the contract, and began to nervously check the contract, waiting for both parties to sign and need them. And the others waited to relax. Some got together to chat, some sat in their seats to recuperate, and some smoked while just like Xiao Yifei.
Xiao Yifei was spitting fog with Galder. Andrew leaned in.
"Mr. Xiao, do you still need CBS shares?"
Xiao Yifei almost choked on the smoke.
"What do you mean?"
"For this transaction, the commission we received at Sherman Law Firm was not cash, but 10% of the volume. Now that the transaction is successful, our company has 2.6 million CBS shares. ”
Xiao Yifei sighed in his heart, this Lei Shidong is too picky, and the commission is actually given to stocks. Could it be that All-American Entertainment is really poor like this, he did a calculation, only to find that the 10% commission was actually more than 30 million. No wonder you don't give cash to stocks.
"It's all B shares?"
"That's for sure."
Xiao Yifei scratched his head.
"What price are you going to want?"
"The current price, of course."
Xiao Yifei didn't think about it, and directly refused:
"Then you'd better keep it for yourselves."
Isn't that a joke? Lei Shidong didn't sell the A shares at the current price, they actually dared to think so. It's a dream.
"That's 12.775 too."
Xiao Yifei still shook his head and refused:
"Nope."
"If you sell it at this price in the stock market, you can make 2 million."
"Then why don't you sell in the stock market and make the 2 million yourself."
Andrew has nothing to say, so he can only ask:
"And how much do you want to bid?"
"Anyway, you were supposed to be $12, so be $12."
"How is it possible, this price is too low, you can make 4 million just by selling, we are too lost."
"Then you guys can slowly sell in the market."
Andrew walked to the side to make a call, and after a while he came over again:
"Okay, $12 sold to you."
Xiao Yifei hurriedly called over Ryan and a few of their leaders.
"What's going on here?"
It was also strange to hear from a few heads. Later, I learned that in order to ensure the stability of the stock price, Lei Shidong signed an agreement with them that this batch of shares would not be traded in the secondary market for half a year. And now Xiao Yifei bought it from Sherman, which is an over-the-counter transaction, and it is no longer within the scope of contract restrictions.
"Then if I get this batch of stocks, will I not be able to sell them in the stock market for half a year?"
Ryan replied:
"It depends on how they sign the agreement, and if the restriction is against Sherman, then you can sell it on the secondary market. If the restriction is for this batch of stocks, then you can't sell it. ”
"This is a copy of the contract, and the restriction is that we can't sell it, so I'm looking for you."
Xiao Yifei thought for a moment and asked:
"Aren't you going to find a random company to change hands and lift this restriction?"
Andrew whispered:
"Yes, but it's too risky, and Mr. Summer can't explain it."
Oh, so Xiao Yifei knows. That's right, after the news of Lei Shidong's sale of shares is announced, the stock price will definitely fall, and if Sherman sells it again, won't this be a stone. Lei Shidong really wants to get angry and sever the cooperative relationship with Hillman, then Hillman's people will be depressed.
"That's good. Ryan is in charge of this, and I'll sign it. ”
Led by CBS staff, Xiao Yifei and the others came to another conference room. The meeting room is simply set up with a long table. Two chairs, a baffle tree full of CBS eye markings in the back, no other face engineering or writing at all.
Finally, Summerray Shidong, chairman and CEO of All-American Entertainment, and Sally Lei, president of All-American Entertainment, entered the conference room with lawyers and others.
Xiao Yifei hurriedly greeted and chatted with Lei Shidong and Sally. The signing ceremony after that was a good one, that is, the two parties signed 3 contracts. Later, the two CSRCs said that they would rush back to Washington overnight and send the three signed contracts to the headquarters for review, once the headquarters approved the review. Even if the contract is formed, both parties can settle and pay for the shares.
Xiao Yifei and Lei Shidong chatted a few more words, and when talking about how he likes to watch CBS's "NCIS Los Angeles", Lei Shidong spoke:
"Shaw, do you want to go to the set and have a look?"
"What?"
"Just to see how the TV series is filmed."
"Yes, of course, didn't they say that idle people can't go to the set to disturb the shooting?"
"You're a shareholder of CBS now, you're an investor, and of course you can go and see it."
"That's great, I'd love to see the little old lady."
He glanced around. Raising her hand, the lady in charge of the reception of the Los Angeles CBS who participated in the whole negotiation walked over.
"You seem to be from the Liaison Department, right?"
"Yes, I'm Jennifer. Liaison Department, assistant to Vice President Adam. ”
"Shaw wanted to see the NCISLA filming set. Are they still filming? ”
"I need to check the schedule for this."
"Then you can arrange to contact him directly."
"Yes, Mr. Summer."
After sending Lei Shidong and Sally away, everyone finally completed the negotiation.
Lei Shidong was forced to sell his shares by debt, and he himself would definitely rather give up some movie theaters than give up these shares, so he was not interested in holding any drinking parties to celebrate the signing of the contract.
Lei Shidong They don't celebrate, it doesn't mean that Xiao Yifei doesn't celebrate. Xiao Yifei invited a treat, and the entire negotiation team included Sherman's people. We went to a nightclub together and spent the night. Don't look at these people fighting over the negotiations, now it's time to relax. These Americans are so unrestrained. There are too many beauties here in Los Angeles, and after a while, they will slip away with the chicks one by one. There was even a guy who brought two of them, which made Xiao Yifei's eyes red.
At 11 o'clock, Xiao Yifei also left the nightclub with Tina, whom he called.
Xiao Yifei's investment products in his hands now, in addition to the stocks that are not sold now, are only spot gold. I don't know why today's morning trading, like other afternoon trading at other times, against the opening of the previous few days, there was a slight shock, compared with the high point of the previous days, it has fallen by almost $100, Xiao Yifei feels that this adjustment should be in place, the pressure of selling should be released, and he can no longer see the market outlook, so he decided to settle down.
In this operation, he actually created more than 300% of the profits, and the total profit reached 50 million. Xiao Yifei thinks that if he can really see through the future market of spot gold, or if he is a reborn person, then what other industries are higher, even if he speculates on gold, he can make the world's richest man. It's a pity that his two operations are just that he has a clearer view of the market outlook, and he took it out to speculate on the profits he earned some time ago, and he didn't feel distressed even if he liquidated the position. In other words, he maintained a normal mind, but once he really relied on this to make money, he believed that he would never be able to play those professionals.
The next step is to send the big team away. Although the contract still needs the approval of the CSRC to be established, the rest of the matter is no longer something that Xiao Yifei or the negotiation team can handle. Their mission is over, and they can finally go back to San Francisco. If there are obstacles in the CSRC, I believe that Lei Shidong will exert his influence to remove these small obstacles.
Before leaving, Xiao Yifei sent them a small gift as usual. Xiao Yifei, who has a child, attached an electric toy he bought that day. Of course, the most important thing in the gift is a check, which ranges from $2 to $40,000 depending on the location of each person. What's special is Catherine's one, which actually reached $100,000, which is because she told herself that she had CBS shares for sale, if it weren't for him, how could Xiao Yifei get this batch of shares. In addition, there is also the meaning of thanking her for her perseverance and recommending spot gold to herself. Spot gold made him a small fortune.
This gift really satisfies everyone, for Xiao Yifei, if he comes to negotiate by himself, he will definitely be bombarded by the other party, and spend hundreds of thousands of dollars to reward these teammates who have saved at least tens of millions for themselves, Xiao Yifei does not feel that this money is unjust at all.
They were joined by Ryan in San Francisco, who was going back to sign an amendment to the loan contract with Wells Fargo to add Sherman's 2.6 million CBS shares to the loan and make the loan amount 78% of the collateral. (To be continued)
