"The price is great?!" Hugo sneered, "I said Ms. Berlusconi, even if it is an acquisition, your bid is too insincere, you know how much this website will be worth in a few years, hundreds of millions of dollars or even a billion dollars, and now you are giving a price of 50 million dollars to buy it!" Do you think I'm short of money to spend or do you think you're taking me for a fool! ”

Hugo always has a future value in everything, a hen can lay many, many eggs, can hatch many hens, so the price of a hen is astronomical.

"Monsieur Collaney, it's not interesting for you to talk about this business like that! Who of us can say what the future holds?! That's not the right way to do it! According to your estimates, my price has been greatly exceeded! Marina wasn't angry, she smiled and shook her head.

"Forget it, I don't talk about it, your time is precious, and my time is also precious! I will only give you one way, we cooperate, I can sell part of the equity to you, the management rights are still in our hands, we can carry out substantial cooperation in many aspects! If you are selling this Internet company, then your bid must at least be a little sincere! If it's less than 100 million, don't talk to me, I'd rather sell him to foreign buyers! Hugo said.

"Oh, yes! I finally know why you're buying it! Hugo suddenly stood up from his chair.

"Haha, you're afraid! You are worried that his rise as a new media group will affect your position! Hugo figured it out and pointed it out to the point.

In Italy, the media industry is both private and state-run, but before the 80s, Italian law allowed only the state-monopolized RAI to broadcast programs throughout the country, and a large number of private commercial television programs could only be broadcast in the region, Berlusconi took advantage of the loophole to buy a large number of television programs from abroad, especially Hollywood movies and soap operas in the United States, and sold them to regional television stations at a low price. Berlusconi, for his part, profited from the placement of these films.

This is the rise of Berlusconi Media Group, and then Italy introduced an anti-monopoly law, and the national television station cannot monopolize, so Berlusconi took the opportunity to buy an Italian television station, thus starting his own monopoly road, because he is well managed, and occupies a large share of the Italian domestic market, once occupied 80% of the commercial market.

This is very terrifying, and the Fenningwest group has since become the target of repeated attacks by the anti-monopoly department, but in order to ensure his own interests, Berlusconi established the Forza Italia party, and went to run for election and become prime minister.

Marina doesn't know much about Internet communication, but in terms of the rapid development of new sports, they soon have a lot of mass base, and with their rise in the future, who can guarantee that Hugo will not continue to expand his media territory?! At least it really looks like a threat.

Marina really didn't expect Hugo to know so quickly that Fenningwest's real intention was to drive Hugo away.

"Since you know, you should know our sincerity!" Marina said coldly, it's always embarrassing to be seen through.

Sincerity, I think it's almost the same as bad intentions, Hugo thought to himself, this sports website is dispensable to him to some extent, and Marina is also a fool, does she think that this way she can avoid the impact of the Internet wave on traditional media?! It's so stupid and naïve!

"I'm not going to sell it! I say it's ridiculous for your purpose, today there is a new sport, tomorrow there are foreign websites challenging the Italian media industry, and you have to resort to acquisitions to remove this threat, it's just ridiculous! You know what the most important thing for you is, is change! Change your attitude towards the Internet, pay attention to it! Hugo scoffed.

"We can still cooperate with each other, we can do a good job of new sports together, we can fight foreign websites, no one knows the future better than me in this regard, you acquired new sports today! Okay, tomorrow I'll go to the United States to register an Internet portal, and I'll see how you guys deal with it! Go ahead and buy or leave it alone?! Hugo spoke in a threatening tone.

But this is his nonsense, the most important thing in the Internet era is fast, the reason why so many Italians watch the new sports is because the server is in Italy, and the access will not wait for much time, but if the server is abroad, haha, then there is a wait, who is impatient to visit?!

How did Marina know this, thinking that what Hugo said was true, she fell into deep thought, and it was not impossible to cooperate, she was not familiar with the emerging field of Fenningwest, and they were just beginning to set foot in this field.

"Well, I agree that we don't take the acquisition model, we can cooperate, how about Fenning West invest in the purchase of forty percent of the new sports equity in your hands?!" Marina thought about it for a while, she felt that this would be fine, Hugo and they knew better how to run a website, and they could even provide experience and help to Fenning West in the future.

"How much are you going to bid?!" Hugo asked.

"It depends on the outcome of the negotiations, what, you want to know my low price?! I can't give you an answer without discussing it right now! Marina smiled charmingly.

"I want to know, but it's okay if I don't know! The purpose of my coming today is to dispel the idea of acquisition, and you will not be able to operate the new sports if you sell it to you! It's still in my hands! I'm not going to be involved in the negotiations for your stake, Julia. Miss Bonaparte is the CEO of Hugo International Investments, and she will be in charge of negotiating with you! Hugo shook his head and said.

Hugo was about to leave, but Marina invited him to dinner, which was an apology to him, and Hugo was left to dry for three days.

"We little people, you just hung it, I don't care about it anyway, I didn't take it to heart, I'm very busy, my team is now attacking the league championship!" Hugo was joking this time.

"I don't invite you to a meal, I always don't want to go, you're a celebrity, it's normal to have a little temper! So let's do it, the Milan derby on May 12th, I invite you to the San Siro to watch the game, you will not refuse, right?! Marina said.

"Well, you're a good idea! I am very satisfied with my brother Victor. Colani is a big fan of Milan! Hugo thought it was a good idea.

"Well, we'll meet again! I think you're really good! Young, handsome and thoughtful, you have a great future! If I hadn't gotten married, maybe I'd have taken a fancy to you! "Marina actually teased Hugo.

"Come on, come on, what's the use of talking about those?! Let's get a little practical and make our partnership go further! Hugo began to take off his coat, and he really looked like a rogue, but fortunately there were only two people in Marina's office and the door was closed, otherwise it would not be nice to be in public.

Marina exclaimed, "I'm joking! ”

"I know you're talking about playing, I'm also taking it off to play, damn the weather, it's actually a little hot!" Hugo scolded with a smile.

It is not easy to convince this strong woman, and Hugo feels inexplicable, and he feels that he has inexplicably persuaded Marina. When Gallando asked him about the situation, Hugo said, "Get ready for the new boss!" ”

Garlando was in a hurry immediately, he also had shares in New Sports, which Hugo gave him, but if Hugo wanted to sell him, he couldn't resist, it was better to sell it with him, he didn't want to, this website was his hard work.

"Don't worry, I convinced her that I was going to sell forty percent of the shares to her! From now on, we still have the final say in new sports! Hugo laughed, stopping the joke.

Garlando breathed a sigh of relief and forced his face bitterly, "I'm afraid I'll lose my job again!" ”

"Unemployed?! Hahaha, Paul's will not happen, even if you can't keep the new sports, I have other jobs for you to do! If I lose the new sports and Lao Tzu sets up a local TV station to fight against them, you will be the general manager at that time! What can't you do if you have money?! Hugo patted Garlando's shoulder.

"Then you wait for Miss Bonaparte, and she will be in charge of the negotiations with the Fenningwest Group with you, and try to sell the forty percent of the shares at a good price, and when we get the money, we can divide it and put it in our own pockets!" Anyway, the new transfer period is about to start again, and I'm so poor that I can't do it! Hugo said.

"You're not financing?!"

"No, it's a sale, I'm selling part of my stake to them! The website needs funds to obtain from advertising revenue, and we do not share that part of the money. Hugo said.

"Oh yes, you have to make a fuss about advertising contracts, resolutely avoid long-term contracts for several years, this is simply stupid behavior, website advertising has to be short-term contracts, advertising fees have to rise, signing long-term contracts is stupid, this is not traditional newspaper media advertising, it is different! Remember! Hugo commanded.

Hugo knew that many popular websites in later generations had very good advertising fees, which was the bulk of the website's profits, and the experience of making money came from later generations.
