Chapter 1412: Buying Nikon

Only then did the people of the three major consortia remember that if this matter could not be negotiated, the 80 billion loan contract would be gone, and the tens of billions of dollars of infrastructure contracts would be gone.

"Guys, it's just a Nikon sale, and Nikon is just a good company in the camera field, do you think you will lose to a Chinese company in the camera field?" Mitsui Hideyi said with a smile.

"......" everyone stopped talking, Mitsui Hideyi was not wrong to say this, just because Daqian was going to enter the digital camera market, he was afraid to block others, it really looked a little too stupid.

Not to mention that there are tens of billions of dollars of business here, which is worth several Nikons.

"In that case, let's sell it!" The Fuji Foundation was the first to agree that their Fuji Foundation did not have much interest in the digital camera business, and even if Daqian occupied this market, it had nothing to do with the Fuji Foundation, and sold Nikon at a premium of 30%, but made a profit, so why not!

"We Mitsubishi agree!" Like Fujifilm, Mitsubishi also does not have much interest in the field of digital cameras, and it is the Mitsui Foundation and the Sumitomo Foundation that have really invested heavily in these two industries.

However, looking at Mitsui Xiuyi's attitude of helping Jia Yapeng speak, the Mitsui Consortium has obviously been persuaded by Jia Yapeng, and the only trouble left is the Sumitomo Consortium.

As for the Sumitomo Foundation, although they snorted a few times, they still agreed very simply, anyway, they only have 4% of the shares, and they don't feel distressed if they sell it.

In this way, the four major consortia and Daqian reached an acquisition intention, and Daqian won 38% of Nikon's shares at a premium of 30%, plus some shares acquired by Daqian piecemeal, Daqian won a total of 53% of Nikon's shares, occupying the majority of the entire company.

So, on March 4, Nikon issued a low-key announcement, that is, Daqian Group completed the acquisition of most of Nikon's shares, and Jia Yapeng of Daqian Group has now become the chairman of Nikon's board of directors and has gained control of the group.

That's not all, then Nikon Group issued another announcement, that is, the chairman of Nikon Group announced that it would launch the privatization process of Nikon Group, Nikon Group will delist from Nikkei and U.S. stocks at a premium of 30%, and at the same time launch a tender offer to acquire most of the company's shares and complete the privatization.

This acquisition has attracted huge attention around the world, and in the two countries of Huaxia and Fuso, it has set off huge waves.

Once upon a time, Huaxia enterprises were able to acquire a Fuso company, and it was such a famous company as Nikon.

All of a sudden, the whole of China was boiling, and Daqian's fame rose sharply, which greatly boosted the morale of the Chinese people, and the effect of Lenovo's acquisition of IBM in history was almost the same.

The reason why Lenovo was able to become the representative of the national PC for a time and almost monopolized the entire official computer market was because Lenovo acquired IBM's global computer business, which made Lenovo the glory of China and gained great prestige.

Of course, because Lenovo acquired IBM's business, and then made a joke that computers are cheaper than those in China, which caused even greater dissatisfaction and fell off the altar.

On the other hand, the Fuso people are a little desolate, Nikon is one of their former glory, and it was actually acquired by a Chinese company in this way, and many Fuso people are sour to death in their hearts.

But there is no way to do this, with the permission of the four major consortia, there is no obstruction from the government, and Nikon is not a company related to national security in Fuso, so there is no need to block it.

Therefore, the whole acquisition process was very fast, and the delisting procedures were completed at the end of April, and 87% of Nikon's shares were in the hands of Daqian Group, and there were some people who were unwilling to sell their shares.

It is about Daqian to invest in Nikon, and Nikon has a lot to do in the future!

However, Boss Jia is not used to them, and directly controls Nikon to split his business into two parts, of which the camera business remains unchanged and still belongs to Nikon.

The lithography machine business was directly spun off and then sold to Daqian Group, which completely became an asset in the hands of Daqian Group. Literature Great

During the whole spin-off process, the remaining shareholders did not know about the whole process, and when they knew, they did not have any ability to resist. Many people felt very bored, and finally sold their shares to Daqian Group.

Since then, Nikon has been engaged in digital cameras, tepid, and does not seem to have any desire to expand the market, but profits have dropped a lot, making many shareholders desperate again, selling their shares and leaving.

Until Nikon completely became a company in the hands of Daqian.

————————

By the way, it seems that the final performance of Daqian in 97 has not been mentioned, no way, Boss Jia is too busy, and today's performance report is also very chaotic, just a simple report.

First of all, it is still Daqian's old foundation, Daqian food.

First of all, the boss of Daqian Food Jia basically doesn't care anymore, and the old factory director has also retired, and now he is a newcomer who manages Daqian Food.

In 93, he entered the factory, and he has always been in Daqian Food, and he has become the successor of Daqian Food unconsciously, and he is still very young, only 29 years old.

And this young man does have an idea, and has launched more than a dozen snacks, although most of the results are average, but relying on the huge sales network of Daqian, the sales of these snacks are also huge enough.

And he launched the "Weilong Spicy Noodles" but unexpectedly became popular, coupled with the marketing routine of Daqian's snacks with cards, in less than a year, it actually made Weilong Spicy Noodles become a snack second only to Elf Crispy Noodles, looking at this momentum, it is also possible to surpass Elf Crispy Noodles in the domestic market next year.

In the end, Daqian Food created a total turnover of 780 million yuan in 1997, which is the well-deserved leader of the entire snack industry in China

Then there is Daqian puzzle, Xiaoyi continues to expand the market, and after the four-wheel drive, Yu-Gi-Oh and other ace products, he finally came up with a fist product, that is, the battle top.

Boss Jia was shocked when he first saw this product plan, and then directly approved Xiao Yi's application to make a special animation to promote the battle top.

In September '97, the animation and products of the combat gyro were in full swing, and although they did not have a huge impact like the four-wheel drive car back then, the sales were still quite good.

However, these are not the focus of Daqian Puzzle in 97.

The biggest success of Daqian Puzzle in 97 was to launch the "Good Remembering Star" electronic dictionary to the market in April 97.

This is actually a very backward product for Daqian's technology, but it is a dot matrix screen that is about to be eliminated, and then equipped with an electronic dictionary, as well as a sound function, etc., such a rough first-generation product, but the price has reached 599 yuan per unit.

As a result, such a thing, from April to December, actually sold 6 million units across the country, which had to make Boss Jia sigh that Huaxia's parents have always been the most willing to spend money on their children.

And these 6 million units also brought an astonishing profit of 1.2 billion yuan to Daqian Puzzle, which was much crazier than the primary school learning machine of the year.

It is said that the second generation of Haoji Xing, which is now more comprehensive, is already under development, and it seems that Xiaoyi intends to make this market to the end, so that children in China can fall in love with learning English.

As a result, the annual sales of Daqian Yizhi exceeded 5 billion yuan in the entire 97 years, and the net profit reached 2.132 billion yuan, once again hitting a record high.
