Rebirth of the Entertainment Master

However, with Xiao Yunhai's shrewdness, wouldn't it be possible for him not to think of what he thought of?Are things really as simple as he said?

Thomas was skeptical.

After being fooled by Xia Yunhai once, Thomas was very careful with Xiao Yunhai, for fear that if he was not careful, he would make fun of him again.

Thomas thought for a while and said, "Are you really willing to buy my shares for 1000 million dollars?"

Xiao Yunhai smiled and said: "Of course. However, I will only give you this chance. Later, I may have to negotiate with Mr. Tony. Once you sell Magic to him, you probably won't have this chance."

When Thomas heard it, he suddenly realized: "I understand. You want to buy back the 1000% shares from me with 20.00 million U.S. dollars. When you negotiate with Mr. Tony, you can use a higher price Sell ​​it to him, right?"

Xiao Yunhai was stunned, and said with a smile: "Thomas, I haven't seen you for so long, you really have become a lot smarter. But, unfortunately, it's useless even if you know. Because you have no choice. Hmph, if you don't Seeing that Mr. Pippen offered [-] million US dollars, I wouldn't even pay [-] million US dollars. Tell me, will you sell it or not?"

Thomas snorted, and said coldly: "I won't sell. I would rather lose 1000 million US dollars, and would rather sell to Pippen than sell to you and let you make money."

Xiao Yunhai said with a smile: "There is a saying in Huaxia called harming others and benefiting oneself. Your behavior perfectly interprets this sentence. Unfortunately, you are wrong. Once I sell 50.00% of the shares to Tony, do you think he is still Will you buy your 20.00% two? Don’t be naive. At that time, he is already a major shareholder, and he also owns most of the magic special effects patents, your shares are no longer so important. I even doubt that he will Magic hollowed out and directly added to his special effects team, hehe, you can imagine what will happen to you? Three hundred million dollars, are you kidding me?"

Thomas said angrily, "You guys are really calculating."

Xiao Yunhai said: "Forget it, since you are so determined, then I won't buy it. Let you finish with the 20.00% shares. Daniel, send Mr. Thomas out for me."

Daniel nodded and said, "Mr. Thomas, please."

Thomas turned a deaf ear, stared at Xiao Yunhai for half a minute, and then said: "You won. When will you give me 1000 million US dollars?"

Xiao Yunhai said: "Right now. We need to sign the contract before Tony and I negotiate. Daniel, go find a lawyer to make a contract."

Daniel nodded and said, "Okay."

Half an hour later, Xiao Yunhai looked at the transfer contract and nodded in satisfaction.

Thomas asked, "Where's my money?"

Xiao Yunhai smiled slightly, and said, "Leave your bank account. Before five o'clock in the afternoon, I will call you for 1000 million U.S. dollars."

Thomas grimaced, snorted, left angrily without saying anything.

After Thomas left, Xiao Yunhai suddenly looked at Daniel, and said, "I said I'm going to sell Magic, why aren't you worried at all?"

Daniel smiled and said, "Boss, if you really wanted to sell magic, I'm afraid you wouldn't waste your time talking with Thomas."

Xiao Yunhai laughed loudly, and said: "You, you are really a mature person."

Daniel asked suspiciously: "Boss, the situation is so severe now, what are you going to do?

"Severe? Daniel, you are wrong. In my eyes, the situation has never been severe. After a while, Magic's stock price will definitely plummet, and the company will definitely cause panic. But it doesn't matter, this gust of wind will soon In the past. Daniel, during this period, you told everyone that their salaries would not be less than a penny. If so, there are still people who want to leave, so don’t stop them. We don’t need this kind of employees who can’t share the company’s troubles. Only four words to them, never hired. Understand?"

Hearing Xiao Yunhai's words, Daniel was completely relieved.Since the boss dares to say that, it means that he already has a way to get through this crisis.

"Boss, you're testing their loyalty. Okay, I know what to do."

Just then, Daniel's office phone rang.

"Hi, hello, I'm Daniel."

"Okay, wait a minute."

Daniel covered the microphone and said, "Boss, at eleven o'clock, Mr. Tony treats you to coffee. Look..."

Xiao Yunhai said: "Promise him, I'm just going to meet this great man."

Daniel nodded, and said into the phone: "Our boss will make an appointment on time."

At this time, it was already ten thirty in the morning, and Xiao Yunhai and Daniel rushed to the agreed cafe together.

At 55:[-], the two walked into a small box under the guidance of a staff member, and there were two people sitting in it.

One is a well-dressed middle-aged man in his 40s, and the other is a young man in his twenties.

Seeing Xiao Yunhai, the middle-aged man did not get up, but made a gesture and said, "Mr. Xiao, please sit down."

Xiao Yunhai didn't expect the boss of Columbia Pictures to be so impolite, he couldn't help frowning slightly, and said, "Mr. Tony, don't you know what you want me to do?"

Tony smiled and said, "Mr. Xiao, I think you should know about our Colombian affairs, right?"

Xiao Yunhai nodded and said, "I know a little bit."

Tony said domineeringly: "New technology replaces old technology, which is inevitable for social development and progress. Our Colombian special effects team only has more than 100 people, which has seriously affected our development. However, your company has a team of thousands of people. Once the two are combined, the explosive power is absolutely earth-shattering. Therefore, I would like to buy 50.00% of your magic shares and all the special effect patents in your hand."

Xiao Yunhai asked: "How much money is Mr. Tony going to pay?"

Tony stretched out his middle and index fingers, and said, "US$20 billion."

Xiao Yunhai chuckled, and said, "Are you kidding? Not to mention anything else, the advertising effect of the word magic alone has exceeded one billion dollars. If it were you, would you sell it?"

Tony said confidently: "Mr. Xiao, the magic can become the number one in the world. The most important thing is that the magic special effects patent restricts the entire Hollywood. Now that we have a better one, its desolation has become inevitable. Once we release the news to All over the world, its stock price will inevitably plummet. At that time, you may not even be able to sell [-] million U.S. dollars."

Xiao Yunhai said: "I won the magic itself, without spending a penny. Even if it is to be finished, I will destroy it with my own hands. However, I will not let go of its special effects patent no matter what. Because Huaxia There will be many companies interested in it. Although your technology is advanced, the price will definitely not be cheap. I only need to be 50.00% cheaper than you, and I believe that the annual patent fee of [-] million US dollars is not a problem."

Chapter 561: Turning Passive into Active

Hearing Xiao Yunhai's words, Tony's pupils shrank slightly, and he said, "Mr. Xiao, I think it's very irrational for you to do this."

Xiao Yunhai smiled and said: "This is my worst plan. In fact, I have a better way to deal with this crisis. As long as I move the whole magic to China, all problems will be solved. The development of China's film and television industry The speed is astonishingly fast, and thousands of film and television dramas each year are enough for us to earn magically. What do you think?"

Tony took a sip of coffee, relieved his emotions, and said, "Mr. Xiao, if I want to buy Magic, how much do you think is appropriate?"

Xiao Yunhai shook his head, and said: "Magic is the foundation of my foothold, and I have no intention of selling it at all. In fact, there is one thing I still don't understand. Why did you buy MGM's Magic shares? "

Tony was taken aback, and said, "Of course it's for the magical technicians."

Xiao Yunhai shook his head, and said: "Mr. Tony, there is an old Chinese saying that people who are bright do not speak dark words. If you need special effects technicians, there is no need to pay such a high price. I thought about it for a long time, and finally I think it will make you so aggressive I’m afraid it’s my patent for special effects. It’s not true that you bought Magic Magic, but the idea of ​​using my patent for special effects is true. Mr. Tony, Magic has spent ten years developing new special effects technology and hasn’t done it. Your so-called new The technology will not be based on magical special effects. If so, then we have to discuss it."

Tony's heart skipped a beat when he heard that.

Columbia's new special effects technology only changes one direction of magic special effects, making it more realistic and faster. To be precise, it should be an improved or enhanced version of magic special effects.

This matter was a top secret of Columbia Pictures, and Xiao Yunhai did not expect to know about it.

Could it be that there are traitors in our company?

Although Tony had already sensed that things were out of his control, his expression remained unchanged, and he said, "Mr. Xiao, you really know how to joke."

What kind of eyes did Xiao Yunhai have? After he finished speaking, he kept staring at Tony's face. Although the other party hid it well, Xiao Yunhai still noticed the sudden shock.

"It's not the best. Mr. Tony, since things can't be negotiated, let's forget it. Thank you for your coffee. Goodbye."

Seeing that Xiao Yunhai really got up to leave, Tony hurriedly said, "Slow down. Mr. Xiao, how did you know?"
