Chapter 2 Golden State Warriors
Chris Cohan had already come down the stairs while Richard was communicating with his two half-brothers.
Richard hurriedly did it on the sofa, although he despised Chris Cohan's style on emotional issues, but after all, this old guy was the biological father of his body, so emotionally, Richard still respected Chris Cohan very much.
"Okay, we're all here, I'm here to announce a big event." Event?! Judging from Lao Kehan's tone and expression, what Lao Kohan was going to announce was indeed very important, so the three brothers immediately straightened up, and then waited for Lao Kohan to continue.
"I'm going to retire." Chris Cohan glanced at the three of them, and then said such a sentence word by word!
With a single sentence, the three of them were immediately shocked, retirement? Dad is only in his early 60s, and he has been controlling the family's cable TV business for decades, and now he is retiring? Could it be that something stimulated it? Or is it temptation?
As if seeing the confusion of the three of them, Chris Cohan continued to affirm: "I have already figured out, I have to retire, I have to enjoy life, play golf every day, drink coffee with old friends in my spare time, smoke cigars, go to Las Vegas once a month, and have a dashing lap, that kind of life is what I should live at my age." ”
Chris Cohan's words strengthened his thoughts, and Richard instantly understood why old Cohan had such thoughts, it is said that the NBA held a boss party a few days ago? Presumably what stimulated old Cohan?
Come to think of it, Richard was almost certain that the stimulus should have come from Jerichbus. Since 98 years, Jerry Bass has successively handed over the Bass family's property to his two sons and a daughter, and then the old Bass began to play around, appearing in Las Vegas and Hawaii from time to time, and life was not comfortable.
Maybe Chris Cohan thinks that old Bass's life is what he should live, so he thinks of retirement?
"Okay, this matter is decided, from today onwards, I will remove all positions in the family business, and only retain the position of chairman of the Kehan Group, as for the management of the company's various industries, I have to hand it over to you." Old Kehan looked at his three sons, thought for a while and said, "Ben, you have always been in charge of the family's real estate, and now that I am retired, you will continue to be in charge of this piece!" ”
The eldest brother Kehan will continue to be in charge of the real estate industry, which Richard has long expected, and the younger brother Dick Kehan must have also thought of it, after all, the new industry of the Kehan family has always been in charge of the eldest brother Kehan, and it is logical that it will continue to be taken care of by Benko Han.
Next, Richard and his younger brother Dick Cohan didn't speak, they were a little nervous in their hearts, this time the assignment to manage the family property, from the nature of it, is actually the distribution of the inheritance, if one day the old Cohan dies, there will definitely be no more wills, the current distribution is almost the future distribution of the estate, so Richard and Dick Cohan's nervousness is not surprising.
"Dick, Cable Group or Golden State Warriors, which one do you prefer?" Old Cohan then didn't assign it directly, but asked Dick Cohan's opinion, which made Richard touch his nose, obviously, it can be seen from here that Old Cohan's eccentric eyes, Richard can't do anything, he can only look at Dick Cohan, hoping that Dick Cohan won't have a brain twitch.
If Dick Cohan didn't have a brain, he would definitely not choose the Golden State Warriors, although the Warriors now have a market value of about 500 million, but overall, it is still a lot worse than the Cohan family's cable TV group, especially in terms of profitability, the Warriors almost do not make money, and even sometimes have to post money.
But even so, Richard still wants to get the Warriors, all the investments he made before, even if not all of them are for the Warriors, but it's almost, Richard will do his own investment business, on the one hand, he wants to fulfill a dream in his previous life, run an NBA team, and on the other hand, he hopes that through his own efforts, he can get out of the previous state of having to rely on the Cohan family.
Now, his second goal has been achieved, but the first one has not yet been, and he would have to wait a few more years until his venture capital industry is fully blossoming and then buy an NBA team himself. But now, it seems that as long as Dick Cohan doesn't choose the Warriors, Richard can have an NBA team!
Dick Cohan hesitated for a moment, and Richard's heart trembled rapidly, complaining in his heart about Dick Cohan's indecisiveness.
"Dad, I don't think I know much about basketball, so I'd better choose the cable TV group, right?" Dick Cohan glanced quickly at Richard, as if ashamed.
But Richard didn't notice, now! One of his hearts is about to jump out! It's exciting!
Warrior? Warrior!
Old Cohan approved Dick Cohan's choice, and then he looked at Richard.
Richard looked calm on the surface, and seemed to have no opinion on the old Kohan's partiality, but the old Kohan did not have any shame about his previous partiality, looking at Richard, the old Kohan said: "Then Richard, the Warriors will be handed over to you to be responsible, I know you are a basketball fan, I hope you can manage the Warriors well, by the way, how is your venture capital career doing?" ”
Old Kohan suddenly mentioned Richard's venture capital, which made Richard startled, from the heart, Richard was unwilling to link his venture capital business with the Cohan family, so the old Cohan's question made Richard pay attention, and he immediately felt that it was time to let the elements of the Cohan family disappear into his venture capital company.
"It's average, it's making and it's making money, and I'm preparing to withdraw recently, but I'm not going to do it." Richard said that he would not do it, and what he thought in his heart was to dissociate himself from the Cohan family.
"What about the 30 million?" Hearing that Richard didn't do it, Ben Kehan was anxious, but he opened his mouth and asked about money.
Richard was immediately annoyed, the most profitable real estate in the family was taken by you, do you have to worry about the 30 million you borrowed?
Old Kehan also frowned, the undergraduate Han's eating appearance was a little ugly, and he scolded: "What 30 million!" Keep this money, Richard! The Warriors also need money to run the business, and if the Warriors lose too much, you come to me, understand? ”
After all, Richard is also the biological son of old Kohan, even if he is a little eccentric, he will not completely care, so it is also expected that 30 million will not go back, but now, Richard is happy, he does not have to pay back the 30 million, his financial pressure will be much smaller, and then, the other 20 million funds in the venture capital fund will be returned, and this venture capital fund has nothing to do with other people!
But for Richard, it's more important to accept the Warriors as soon as possible!
