Chapter 973: Buy or Not (Part 2)
"Little fish eat big fish? Or do you make a waste of money?" After so long influencing, Guo Tailai still knew some common sense about acquisitions, and couldn't help asking.
"It's fine no matter what you say." Lin Jiayi smiled: "It's nothing more than the kind of trick that capital plays. It's not a rare thing to buy your company with the money mortgaged by your company and make a time difference."
"No violation?" Guo Tailai couldn't help asking. Is this method too rogue?
"Anyway, it's not a good way to lose character." Lin Jiayi shook her head, neither saying it was a violation nor saying it was a violation.
Guo Tailai understood in a second, just to get the ball around, walking on the edge of the law, as Lin Jiayi said, it is not a good way.
"Boss, do you want to buy it?" Mr. Mi interrupted and asked. Lin Jiayi was also waiting for his answer.
"Let's understand the situation first." Guo Tailai thought about it for a moment and controlled his greed well: "Warner is not the resource we urgently need. If we can buy it all, then try to talk about it. If we still need to change stocks, then forget it. Now Yijiang Entertainment and Marvel are both low in valuations, and it's too much to exchange stocks with them. Let's wait until "Iron Man" is online."
Lin Jiayi agreed and stopped talking about this matter. We must always understand the situation clearly before talking about it. We cannot buy it when we see the opportunity. Who knows if it is a trap? Now Lin Jiayi is preparing for the arrival of the subprime mortgage crisis, and it requires a lot of funds. At this time, tens of billions of dollars were transferred to acquire it. Is this a contributing to the construction of the United States?
If you really want to buy it, why not wait until the subprime mortgage crisis breaks out and the stock market plummets? The cost will be even lower at that time!
Annie seemed to have really seen the opportunity and moved quickly. After dinner, Lin Jiayi received an email, and then printed it out and started to read and analyze it carefully with Mi Feifei.
Guo Tailai didn't care. He first made a phone call with Chu Fei, then chatted with his senior sister for a few simple words, and then lay on Mi Feifei's sofa in the living room while thinking about the work he wanted to do.
"Boss, Mr. Pagani sent an email today, informing you that the first T-supercar is about to be sold." Lin Jiayi saw a new email while checking the email there and quickly notified Guo Tailai: "He asked if you want to attend the delivery ceremony, and when will the watch you promised be completed?"
Guo Tailai, who was calculating whether he could work less, felt a little sad when he heard the word "watch". He forgot the watch he wanted to make for Pagani, and he hasn't started to do it yet!
"One week!" Faced with Lin Jiayi's inquiry, Guo Tailai gave Lin Jiayi a silent answer, as if he was in a pity: "Let them get it later in a week."
"Boss, you haven't started construction yet, right?" Mi Feifei asked with a puzzled expression beside her.
They wouldn't easily go to Guo Tailai's processing workshop now, and they didn't know what was done inside. Now the boss talked directly for a week, and the two women who were familiar with her guessed the fact that he hadn't taken action yet.
"I forgot this!" Guo Tailai replied honestly with a bitter face. For a long time, Guo Tailai was busy with big items, and he really forgot the little thing about watches behind his mind.
I thought I was doing one thing less, but I just completed a "oil storage tank" and I should have less work on hand. I didn't expect that there were more and more watches. Why did I do more and more of this?
Fortunately, this time it is a real limited edition, and after this time, you will basically not touch the car again, and you will not make watches again. You can see the future. After working hard for a few days, you can always do it well.
During a burst of lament, Guo Tailai could only accept this reality. The next day, he returned to the processing workshop and made a few watches obediently. Speaking of which, the studio has a lot of routine work every day, including engines and various limited edition watches equipped with supercars, which are always arranged in a period of time to complete in a concentrated manner. This time, another watch has to be added.
The last watch that matches the supercar is better to have a complicated one! Guo Tailai already had a concept in his mind, and it was actually quite simple to implement. Now the processing efficiency is extremely high, which hinders Guo Tailai's speed. Instead, assembly is assembling. After a day, several parts of the watch have been processed, and only assembly is left.
Back at the hotel in the evening, Lin Jiayi sat in Guo Tailai's arms and reported the results of the investigation to Guo Tailai.
"Warner Brothers is indeed going to sell, and I have confirmed it to their parent company Time Warner." Lin Jiayi is very efficient. She almost didn't sleep all night last night. Today, she analyzed the information for a day and seemed a little tired: "In addition, I also learned about Warner Brothers, or Time Warner, through other channels, hoping to complete the transaction by exchanging shares with the acquirer and adding a small amount of cash, rather than simply cash transactions. Boss, you know that no matter how bad Warner Brothers is, it is one of the top seven in Hollywood, and it is unlikely to take full advantage of this kind of resource at will. They revealed to me that if you are interested in the boss, they will first consider your acquisition."
"If I want to acquire it, it is actually they who exchanged some shares of Yijiang Entertainment and Marvel through part of Warner Bros., and bound our two companies, and provided Warner Bros. with part of their operating funds. Is that what it means?" Guo Tailai thought for a while and asked with a smile: "Even if I own a large share, I'm afraid that it will not be me or Anne, right?"
"Yes, boss!" Lin Jiayi nodded. The seventh Hollywood star is not that easy to deal with. It is really not like to make decisions just by paying money: "This situation is very likely."
While restoring Lin Jiayi's conditioning, Guo Tailai asked Lin Jiayi: "If we can't completely tell the truth, then what's the difference between the final result and their previous plan to invest in Yijiang Entertainment?"
"There is not much difference." Lin Jiayi closed her eyes and enjoyed the boss's thoughtful and meticulous conditioning service, raised her head and said softly: "It's just that last time they wanted to invest in Artists, they gave you some money to your boss, but now they are the boss, you give them some money to your boss."
"I had a good idea." Guo Tailai didn't know whether to laugh at himself or mock others, so he smiled and kissed Lin Jiayi's cherry lips: "You have a good rest, I'll deal with it."
He carried Lin Jiayi to bed, covered her with a quilt, so that she could have a good sleep. Guo Tailai didn't leave, but answered Xiao Finn's phone call next to him.
"Finn, do you know about Warner Brothers?" Guo Tailai and Xiao Finn said straight to the point: "You know I can't withdraw funds now, and I'm not particularly interested. I've been too busy recently. You can talk to several other film companies. If they are happy, they will divide Warner Brothers. If possible, just leave me a fashion magazine."
