Chapter 227: Go Back

Lee Jae-min, Choi Hae-jong, and the Siblings Senberg returned to Hong Kong from the United States, and this trip to the United States finally completed the transaction of Nine Trees, and when he returned to the Peninsula Hotel, it was already more than 9 o'clock in the morning on the 22nd.

Throwing the briefcase on the coffee table, Lee Jaemin lay on his back and fell into the sofa, the pressure and anxiety were everywhere a few days ago, and recently he was highly nervous because of staring at the target company, and the transaction of Jiushu Company was completed, as if he was going to draw an end to this trip to Hong Kong, and he could finally relax a little.

The rupiah was drained by speculation, and under the leadership of the two major funds, international speculators and those who traveled capital attacked the stock markets of various countries. The remaining $300 million in the stock market has been rolled into more than $750 million after the end of the siege of the Indonesian rupiah. Three days ago, the two major funds rushed into Singapore, AA and a small team to follow up, but this time the Singapore authorities were exceptionally well prepared, after a day of fierce stalemate, in the end, it was the two major funds that led many speculation to retreat, and TTS's speculation also shrank to 600 million US dollars.

The worst stage of the economic crisis has passed, and the economies of all countries have a tendency to rise, and the International Monetary Organization has followed up in a timely manner, even if there is oil and water, he will not be able to make anything at all with only $600 million in speculation, and it is easy to be sniped by a large-scale counterattack organized by the authorities of various countries.

Lee Jae-min turned around and took a pen and paper to sketch on it, starting from the replacement of $1.6 billion in speculation with $1.5 billion in normal circulation.

The acquisition of Jiushu Company, which mainly involved four four-star hotel chains in Seoul, Busan, Gwangju and Gyeongju, cost US$350 million, and the acquisition of 20% of Yoshida Shipping cost US$400 million.

It also acquired a 10% stake in Japan's Yamabara for US$150 million, and Zuihou and Aihui Group reached a swap agreement to exchange these shares for a 21% stake in S.M, which is worth far less than 60 billion won (US$6,000W). Although Choi Hae-jong, Senberg, and Alya all shook their heads at this deal, Lee Jae-min was very satisfied, and the development prospects of S.M Company were very good. Very few shareholders will be willing to sell their shares, the founder of S.M, Li Xiuman, is not only the largest shareholder of S.M, but also the chairman of the General Assembly, and the shares will not be sold, in order to make the company continue to develop well, he often holds shareholders' meetings to determine the stability of the company's shares.

Whether the feelings in the dream are real or not, Lee Jae-min would never want the feeling of powerlessness in the face of the pressure of S.M. Company, and now he is dating Taeyeon. You need to plan ahead. The 21% stake was not easy to come by.

If it weren't for the severity of the financial crisis, it happened that the two major funds led the capital to hit the Japanese economy, resulting in the bankruptcy of Japan's Daiwa Life Insurance Company, which led to the sale of Yamawara, a veteran Japanese music publishing company, and it happened that Ai Hui Group urgently needed to acquire this music publishing company to make up for its own shortcomings. If it weren't for the combination of these factors, Lee Jae-min believed that the share swap contract would not have been achieved at all. Even if it's worth more than twice as much. With the scale of Ai Hui Group, it is not worth looking at this difference profit.

If he can't get the 21% stake of S.M Company in the hands of Ai Hui Group, even if Lee Jae-min has more money, he can't buy many S.M shares when he returns to China. With a 21% stake, it is the second largest shareholder of S.M. He has no interest in influencing S.M's decision-making, let alone deliberately acquiring S.M's company to play, he just needs to ensure that the second largest shareholder has the right to speak, once it involves Girls' Generation. It's enough to make those high-level people unable to intervene.

In addition to the 21% stake of S.M, Lee Jaemin's most satisfying trip to Hong Kong was the acquisition of Xia Jinya Company. It took $500 million to buy all the shares, and now the market value of Jinya has shrunk by less than $400 million, which means that in just a few days, $100 million has been evaporated. In Choi Hae-jong's words, this is a full 100 billion won, which can buy the previous LTF.

The reason why Jinya Company shrank so much in a short period of time is that when it acquired 40% of the shares in Han Peiyong's hands, Lee Jae-min repeatedly bought and sold the company's shares here, and this strategy accounted for a lot of "credit". However, he felt that it was worth it to successfully acquire Jinya Company in full with such losses.

Lee Jae-min is very optimistic about the development prospects of Gmarket shopping network after the financial crisis. Online shopping is becoming a major trend and will become more and more popular. As the largest shopping site in South Korea, Gmarket has huge potential, but he also knows that it will be a long process, and in this long process, the investment required will be astronomical, as can be seen from the bankruptcy of Lehman Brothers, which caused the third investment to go down in the red, and the rapid decline in the market value of Jinya as a result, shows how eager it is for money.

Acquisition of the above series of companies or shares, TTS account under the normal circulation of funds only 100 million US dollars, after returning to China to repay part of the loan, in addition to half of the investment into Gmarket, according to Cui Haizhong Jinya company sorted out the financial report, Gmarket's profitability is still very weak, in order to ensure market share, in order to maintain website exposure, awareness, as well as the investment of jishu, as well as software and hardware maintenance and upgrades, etc., plus the stock price plummeted, There is also a sluggish economic environment, and the $5,000W can only last for a few months. That is to say, in the next long period of time, he needs to use the profits of other companies to support the healthy and sustainable development of Gmarket, and this amount will be amazing.

Lee Jae-min took out a stack of documents from his briefcase, one of which was Choi Hae-jong's preliminary budget for the development of Gmarket shopping network in Jinya Company in the future, looking at the long string of numbers, the good mood that had just arisen became much worse. It is a bit difficult to have LTF alone to support this expense, as Yoshida Shipping and S.M are both part of the shares acquired, and the dividends will be a drop in the bucket for the funds Gmarket needs.

Nine Trees? Lee Jaemin opened another document below, which was Alia's development plan for the four chain hotels under the Nine Tree Company, and he saw that he had another headache, and if he came to this plan, it would be another expenditure that required a large investment.

There are also 600 million US dollars under the TTS account, this money will be handed over to Senberg to operate, the last time I did 100 million US dollars in handling fees, it was a last resort, and now it is stupid to go to the dealer to replace the funds, this money can be operated slowly, and strive to achieve no loss, it doesn't matter if it takes a long time.

Earlier, TTS was used to borrow money from the Indonesian government as a shell company operation, and the circulating funds from the speculation operation will be returned to the Indonesian government in the collapsed rupiah, and according to rough estimates, until all the loans are repaid, zuihou will not even use 100 million US dollars, and all the money from the subsequent operation will be accumulated under the TTS account.

Alia's proposal to Lee Jae-min is that part of the funds from the speculation operation will support the development of Nine Trees, and the other part will be used for the investment business of TTS.

Lee Jae-min agrees with Arya's proposal, but what about the expenses of the Gmarket shopping network development budget, it is too difficult for LTF to support it alone, even if LF agency is added, it will not work, unless it can continue to release multiple albums like "One Day at a Time", which may make LTF easier. But I am a normal person, and "national songs" and "divine comedies" are not Chinese cabbages bought in the supermarket, where is it so easy to make. Do you want to get rid of Yoshida Shipping's shares, no, this is a hard thing to get......

"Ah~~" Lee Jaemin was so distressed that he almost had to learn Yuna to roll around on the sofa, taking advantage of the financial crisis, coupled with the collapse of the Indonesian rupiah's encirclement and suppression, he endured so much suffering to get out of such a large amount of money, and as a result, it seems that he is more short of money than before he came to Hong Kong. Break your fingers and do the math, and find that you need a lot of money to support everything.

At this moment, there was a quick knock on the door, and Lee Jae-min shook his head and got up. In the past two days, I flew to the United States and flew back, and I spent most of my time on the plane, and I didn't sleep very well. When he opened the door, he found that it was Cui Haizhong standing outside with an anxious face, and he asked in amazement, "Brother Haizhong, didn't you go back to rest, what happened?" ”

Cui Haizhong said anxiously, "Your phone is not turned on?" The phone in the room is also busy all the time? Shen Jing is in a hurry to find you, and you can't find it, so you hit me! ”

"I forgot, I haven't slept well for the past two days, and my head is foggy." Lee Jae-min patted his forehead, turned around and looked back, he seemed to have touched some line when he came in just now, "Shen Jing is in such a hurry to find me, what's the matter?" ”

Cui Hae-jong glanced at Lee Jae-min, "I don't understand it too well, you turn on your phone, or let Shin Jing talk to you!" ”

Seeing Cui Haizhong's face so serious, Li Zaimin was stunned, and then went back to the sofa and took out the mobile phone from his bag. Before he could pull out Park Shenjing's number, a call came in, it was Park Shenjing. Could it be that something big happened in Seoul, and he pressed the answer button, "Shin Jing?" ”

As soon as the phone was connected, Park Shenjing said quickly, "Thank God, you finally turned on your mobile phone in Min oppa, the mobile phone can't get through, and the hotel phone can't get through, fortunately, I just contacted Haizhong oppa, I almost flew to Hong Kong to find you." ”

Lee Jaemin's brows furrowed, "What's the matter?" ”

Park Shin-jeong's voice was a little low, "In Minoppa, you turn on the computer and search for the Black Sea of Girls' Generation!" ”

Girls' Generation Black Sea. Hearing this, Lee Jaemin's brows jumped, and an ominous premonition enveloped his heart, he quickly turned on the computer in the room and searched according to Park Shin-jeong's prompts. Soon, he searched for a video of Girls' Generation performing at the Dream Concert last night, and then clicked the play button.

At the end of the video playback, including the following message, he hurriedly glanced at it, he looked at the number that his subordinates quickly turned out, thought about it and put away the mobile phone, he hurriedly walked out of the room and said to Cui Haizhong who was waiting in the living room, "Brother Haizhong, call AA to stop, no need to sweep the tail again, let Arya settle the payment for him and the small team, just leave the things behind the TTS to Arya, let's go back to China!" ”

"Good!" Cui Haizhong did not hesitate, he also watched the domestic news with his mobile phone in the living room just now, and understood Lee Jaemin's mood at this time, after all, his relatives are this one sister. (To be continued......)
