Chapter 213 We are optimistic about the prospect

At this moment, in Danone's Hong Kong office, everyone is clouded.

"Fakyu! Fakyu! There was a curse from the office, and he burst through the door and yelled at the assistant, "Fakyu! What happens to the funds in the account? ”

The assistant has a complicated expression: "Sorry ......"

"I don't want to hear anything, I'm sorry." Pierre interrupted flatly, "Give you ten minutes, you can find a way to solve the account problem......"

However, before he could finish speaking, he saw the door open, and a white-haired Westerner walked in: "Pyre, this is an order from the headquarters." All accounts here are frozen. This is me asking my assistant to freeze the account first. ”

There was some panic in Pier's eyes: "Mr. Sean, why are you here?" ”

That Sean sighed and shook his head: "Pyre, let you buy 10% of the shares of Yeshan Qingquan?" Now not only did I not buy any shares, but even the 35 million francs were left with less than 3 million? ”

】

"Sir, sir." Pierre quickly explained, "This time there was an irrational retaliatory backlash. If we continue to sell short, we still have a chance to ......"

Sean sighed again: "Alasβ€”β€”! Don't you know your mission, Pierre? Did anyone arrange for you to come over and trade stocks? ”

"Sir. I was wrong. Give me one more chance. I'm absolutely sure this time that I mortgaged all my house to the bank! ”

Sean smiled angrily: "Pier, leave each other some decency!" You go and write your resignation letter right away. Half an hour later, I don't want to see you again. ”

"You can't do that, sir! I didn't do anything wrong, really, I just had bad luck......"

Sean finally couldn't help but scold: "Soul! If it weren't for the old guys on the board, who were afraid of Danone's stock price plummeting, would you have survived so peacefully? More than 30 million francs lost! I want to send you straight to jail! ”

β€œβ€¦β€¦β€

When Pierre left in ashes, Sean calmed down and called a meeting of all the employees in the office: "Forget about Pierre's bastard thing. Now I'm in charge of the project. You need to find a channel as soon as possible to contact the top management of Yeshan Qingquan......"

β€œβ€¦β€¦β€

After the meeting, looking at this mess, Sean felt a headache.

Since Noyama Kiyosen suddenly became a World Cup sponsor, Danone's headquarters immediately raised the level. From "dispensable" to "as good as possible". In addition, the original 10% stake has been further increased to 20%. But how much does that cost HK$200 million? If you take into account the acquisition costs, you need to prepare at least HK$250 million? Where does this money come from?

And then there's the repair of relationships. The previous malicious short selling, Yeshan Qingquan is not always very happy, right? And it's impossible to be completely unaware. If you break up in one shot, how will you use the springboard of Yeshan Qingquan in the future?

This soul of Pier really kills people!

……

Just when Sean was worried, the stock price of Yeshan Qingquan slowly returned to stability. Due to the large number of sell-offs such as those in Neizhou, the price began to consolidate at a high level between HK$5 and HK$6.

Li Yuan and Ren Li were together, and the two of them were discussing the company's latest arrangements:

"Yuan Shao, you did a beautiful job this time, even the old lady praised the third lady and you."

Li Yuan said with a smile: "This time I have repurchased more than 36 million shares, and the current price difference is 4 yuan 8, excluding the interest of a month's short-term borrowing, as well as some other stock speculation costs, the profit should be about 160 million Hong Kong dollars." According to what was said in advance, Jiaojiao and I opened on a six-fourth day, and she could get almost 65 million Hong Kong dollars. ”

Although Ren Li did not take the initiative to ask, Li Yuan still needed to take the initiative to explain the situation. There is no need to worry too much between him and the eldest lady. But Ren Li is the big housekeeper sent by the Huang family after all.

Sure enough, Ren Li's smile bloomed: "That's fine." ”

"Uncle Li. There are too many stocks in your hands, and you may need to slowly put them out. Maybe there won't be that high price then? ”

"I know that. The accounts are clear. You don't always sell at a low price, everyone wants to make a lot of money. ”

"Huh."

"Yuanshao, how do you arrange the film company?"

"Is there anything going on there?"

"At home, a small amount of play is fine, but a big investment is very risky. After all, the entertainment industry is very chaotic, and it is impossible for a layman to get it in. Even Boss Pan and Boss Lei have all returned, including Boss Zou of Golden Harvest. With that capital, why don't you do something you're good at? ”

Li Yuans understood what Ren Li meant: "Uncle Li, all the money is from me." In the metaverse, I will give half of the shares to Jiaojiao. Give me the film library alone, and I will set up a separate copyright operation company. ”

Since Huang Jiaojiao doesn't have to pay for it, Ren Li has no problem here. He asked curiously, "How do you want copyright to work?" ”

"I will send it to the mainland TV station to broadcast, and by the way, I will advertise Yeshan Qingquan and Tangzun Liquor."

Since he is preparing for waste utilization, Ren Li has no problem here.

"After the establishment of the metaverse, do you have any shooting plans?"

"At present, there is only one art film, with an investment of only 2 million, and the follow-up publicity will not exceed 1 million."

"I'm not asking about the side." Ren Li doesn't care about such petty fights. Of course he knows that the art film is nothing more than a few little pot friends messing around, "After the merger of several companies, there are still more than 100 employees left. None of their contracts expired. Is it arranged to do a new project, or is it a direct severance pay? ”

"Now that Hong Kong films are so popular, it shouldn't be easy for those who stay to find jobs, right?"

Ren Li smiled and nodded.

After thinking about it for a moment, Li Yuan decided: "I don't like to be a black-hearted boss. It's still a new project! Shoot two sequels: the "Rich and Powerful" series and the "A Chinese Ghost Story" series. ”

"Rich and Powerful" is one of Debao's famous series, and "A Chinese Ghost Story" is also one of the famous series of New Arts City. It is relatively safe to shoot a series, and it can also make effective use of the resources of the Hong Kong area.

Ren Li nodded, this approach is more secure. may not be able to make a lot of money, but the probability of hitting the street is very small: "What should be the problem with "Rich and Powerful"." Is it "A Chinese Ghost Story"? Brother and Xiaoqian are both popular fried chickens, and their schedules may not be easy to arrange. ”

"If it's not easy to arrange, change the actors. It is completely possible to create a "Liao Zhai" universe. ”

"The universe of "Liao Zhai"?" Ren Li suddenly heard a new term.

"It's to build the story in "Liao Zhai" into an independent universe." Li Yuan is quite familiar with the big IP universe, and there will be superhero universes everywhere in the future, "For example, put the stories of "Painted Skin", "Fox Fairy" and so on together and adapt them into new stories. And it is connected by various clues. ”

"Is this going to work?" Ren Li was skeptical.

"How do you know if you don't try? Anyway, we are testing the waters, and a small loss is a gain. ”

"Oh well! I'll arrange it! ”

……

Regarding the making of movies, Li Yuan doesn't care much about it.

There is still a golden period of five or six years in the Hong Kong circle! What followed was a long ordeal, and decades later, it still didn't ease. The only thing that is commendable is this group of stars in the golden period. But now it's these familiar faces, and then it's still those familiar faces.

As for the new generation in the Hong Kong circle? As soon as Mr. Chen came out, the whole army was wiped out! (laughs and cries)

The situation in the interior is even more dire. It will take 15 or 6 years before mainland films will rise again.

And accustomed to the high box office of hundreds of millions and billions later, and now I have to open a champagne tower happily when I break 10 million? Brother Yuan, I can't afford to lose this person!

The reason why those two sequels were filmed was mainly to support workers. Anyway, the most important thing is the film library. Now that it's in hand, it's invincible!

"There is less fate, how should Liyuan be arranged?"

"What's the arrangement?" Li Yuan said strangely.

For her company's business, the eldest lady has always been more Buddhist. Li Yuan is a little better, he is a little bit of a Buddha. It's hard to be reborn, why are you busy making money?

"It's the company's strategy and future planning."

"Uncle Li, do you think Jiaojiao and I are the kind of people who are far-sighted and ambitious?"

Ren Li laughed and shook his head helplessly. He had long been accustomed to this kind of young master's style - everything was done as he pleased!

But then again, the third lady and Yuan Shao tossed apart from the world, and they didn't know if it was luck or ...... Luck? Maybe this is the blessing of fools!

In Ren Li's eyes, the success of Yeshan Qingquan's listing mainly relied on the support of the Huang family and mobilized a lot of network resources in business circles and financial circles. I just didn't expect the third lady and Yuan Shao to be so bold, they could toss such a big scene.

Actually, this is also true. said that he didn't rely on the influence of the Huang family at all? It's not very objective either. But if there is no Huang family at all, it is nothing more troublesome, more money is spent, and the delay is longer, and Yeshan Qingquan will still be successful sooner or later.

So Ren Li still has some misunderstandings here, the Huang family is really not a decisive condition.

Of course, in the general opinion of the people around them, they are basically similar to Ren Li, thinking that the Huang family is particularly important. On the contrary, for a certain "little follower", a lucky mainland boy.

There is indeed a lot of prejudice in this, but it is also because of Li Yuan's "indisputability". Even the CEOs of these companies don't care much, so what else do they care?

For Li Yuan, the Internet era is his real stage, and these are toys to kill boring events in front of him. It doesn't matter if you have it, or if you don't. So I don't want to bother with it at all.

In other words, the only thing that interested him was the film library. Because that represents traffic. Only the film library is not for sale.

"The fate is less, does the French Danone group know?"

"Yes!"

"They sent a representative and wanted to negotiate a stake in Noyama Kiyosen. Hope to meet you. ”

"Do you know their conditions?"

The introducer didn't say. I just said that I would make an appointment to meet and talk in detail. ”

"You don't have to eat. Then don't waste your time. I'll talk to them on the phone! If a preliminary intention can be reached, Jiaojiao can be allowed to bring the negotiation team to talk. ”

"Okay."

For Danone's shareholding, Li Yuan has nothing to do. Yeshan Qingquan was originally a listed company, and anyone could buy tradable shares on the open market. This kind of thing can't be stopped.

"Hello, I'm Sean."

"Hello, I'm Li, Chairman of the Board of Directors of Yeshan Qingquan."

"Lee, it's an honor to meet you. When are you available? ”

"Mr. Sean, there is no need to meet, let's talk about your conditions first!"

"Alright! We at Danone want to take a stake in your wild mountains and springs. We are a globally renowned multinational food and beverage group with a strong reputation all over the world. We have an excellent management team, a mature sales network, and we are committed to ......"

Sean said a long paragraph of the advertising slogan, and he was waiting for Li Yuan's reaction. In many cases, many people will be flattered by a large company like Danone, and may be able to reap a lot of unexpected benefits.

Unexpectedly, Li Yuan was not moved at all. After listening to the nonsense calmly, he asked, "Mr. Sean, what is the point of your Danone?" ”

"Ahem." Sean couldn't help but break the defense a little, "Okay! Plum! We want to invest no less than 20% of the equity of Yeshan Qingquan. I hope you can give us a satisfactory answer. We also need two seats on the board of directors and need to be part of the company's management. The overseas distributor of your products can be entrusted to us Danone. We hope that Wild Mountain Spring will become a new sub-brand of Danone. As a sign of good faith, we are willing to trade at the average daily closing price after listing. ”

After hearing this, Li Yuan was not even in the mood to talk nonsense. If nothing else, what exactly does "average daily closing price" mean? Yeshan Qingquan is indeed now at a price of more than 5 yuan, but there was also a closing price of 5 cents before, this average, isn't it the money grabbing of Chiguoguo?

"Mr. Sean, we can issue 40 million new shares to Danone for you, and you will have a 16.67% stake. Two board seats are OK, but you only have half of the voting rights. That's 8.89% of the voting rights. We will operate independently and will also retain our own brand. As a sign of our good faith, the allotment price of the new shares is HK$6 per share. ”

Since you Danone will talk about it, don't you know how to talk nonsense?

Sure enough, Sean seemed to have eaten 500 tons of rice fields, and he shouted aggrievedly: "Li, please don't joke." Is the allotment price higher than the market price? Won't we buy outstanding shares? ”

The truth is indeed the truth, but Li Yuan ...... Isn't it nonsense?

"Sean, I believe that Danone is not one of those ignorant investors who want to speculate, and you are optimistic about the bright future of the Chinese market. A completely blank market, more than a billion consumers, almost unlimited consumption. From the perspective of long-term investment, HK$60 per share is not an exaggeration. ”

"But none of you are in production now? How can you be sure that you will succeed? With our help at Danone, your chances of success are much higher. ”

"Hehe, Sean, do you have an office in the mainland? Do you have a sales network in the Mainland? ”

Sean was choked: "We have a sales network all over the world!" ”

"That means no." Li Yuan sneered, "You are not as good as our wild mountains and clear springs." Let's get to know one thing, do you need our help? Or do we need your help? ”

"But you still don't have a product?"

"We were the first to see this blank market and became the first listed company. You should have seen how famous we are. Even our products don't need to be advertised! ”

"So be it! Plum! The bank's valuation is HK$1.3, and we can show our sincerity at an appropriate premium. You don't think that the public valuation of banks is messy, do you? We at Danone also have a very strict internal evaluation process. ”

"So you explain, what do you say about the stock price in the open market? Do you need me to popularize the common sense of stocks for you? The price of a stock is made up of two parts – one is the actual value and the other is the long-term expectation. Otherwise, it is better to directly calculate the net assets per share as the stock price, does it need to be so troublesome? Now the stock price of Yeshan Qingquan shows that the market is quite optimistic about us, which is the best proof! ”

"Okay, okay! Li, I come with sincerity, and I hope you can negotiate with sincerity. Your conditions are too much, our board of directors will definitely not be able to pass it, can you give a real offer? ”

"I'm genuine about the price. But I can also take a step forward and give you a month to think about it. This gives you a chance to take another look at the stock price's performance. ”

"So be it!" Sean was slightly disappointed, "See you later!" ”

"Goodbye! Hehe. ”

……

As expected, when Sean sent these conditions back to Danone's headquarters, he was directly rejected - is China crazy?
