Hello 1983

Last night, Masao Mitsui and his team didn't close their eyes almost all night.

They repeatedly weighed the pros and cons, and finally communicated urgently with several domestic banks before deciding on the final plan: to retain a portion of the shares.

This is the best plan that Masao Mitsui can think of. Although the Mitsui consortium has to bear huge debts for this, it still retains hope.

After research, Masao Mitsui felt that Liu Qingshan seemed to have an outstanding talent in running a film company.

All the small Hurricane video companies were about to go bankrupt. In just over three years, Liu Qingshan became a middle and high-level film and television company worth hundreds of millions.

Every movie that was shot was a big hit.

It is conceivable that if he joined Columbia Company, wouldn't he be able to flex his muscles and lead the company to take off.

If that's the case, the Mitsui Consortium might be able to get a blessing in disguise.

Even if he pays about one billion in cash now, based on Masao Mitsui's intuition, it will probably take less than ten years to get his money back.

The rest of the time is earned.

Although there will be various difficulties in the short term, the future can be expected, so Masao Mitsui decided to take a gamble.

He didn't believe it anymore, Liu Qingshan took over a large company worth billions of dollars, could he still intentionally destroy it?

After hearing Masao Mitsui's plan, Liu Qingshan couldn't help blinking: It really wasn't that easy.

He immediately judged the other party's intentions. It was clear that he wanted to make a long-term investment, using Liu Qingshan as a long-term meal ticket.

In this way, Mitsui will become the second shareholder of Columbia Pictures.

Isn't it disgusting to have such a guy who follows the dividends? Liu Qingshan can't accept it no matter what, so he chuckled and said:

"Mr. Mitsui, it seems that in the contract, there is no such way of cashing out, right?"

Masao Mitsui nodded solemnly: "However, there is no indication that this method is not allowed to honor the bet."

No matter how tight the contract is, there are loopholes. What Masao Mitsui did is not a real breach of contract, but a suspicion of cheating.

This is also a good idea that he came up with after studying the contract for half a night yesterday, when he suddenly had an idea.

Seeing that Liu Qingshan had started to frown slightly, Mitsui Masao suddenly became a little happier in his heart.

In the confrontation with Liu Qingshan, he felt that he had finally won the initiative. Although it was only a little bit, it was also a kind of progress, wasn't it?

"Mr. Mitsui, I deeply regret your actions." Huang Yueming was also present, and she was a little angry.

Masao Mitsui continued to put on a serious posture: "Miss Huang, this just shows our company's cooperative attitude, as well as respect and trust for Liu Jun."

Huang Yueming really wanted to swear "shameless", but in front of so many people, he really couldn't swear.

Chen Dongfang also frowned, and said, "Mr. Mitsui, we cannot accept your proposal."

Of course, Chen Dongfang was well aware of the Mitsui consortium's plan, so he rejected it very simply.

Masao Mitsui seemed to be sitting firmly on the Diaoyutai these days, and he spread his hands lightly: "Our side has shown great sincerity."

After speaking, he turned to the notary team sitting in the middle: "You can ask a notary to make a ruling."

The notary is the most famous team of lawyers on Hong Kong Island. After carefully studying the contract signed by both parties, they have no claim.

Obviously, Japan is taking advantage of loopholes, but it is impossible to refute.

The lawyer's representative could only stand up and say, "I'm sorry, but we can't define it either."

The people of Mitsui Co., Ltd., on the contrary, looked like winners, with triumphant smiles on their faces.

Mitsui couldn't help but mocked: "One billion US dollars and 50.00% of the shares are enough to represent our sincerity. If you can't accept it, then we don't mind solving it through legal channels."

At this time, they are not afraid of going to court.

Even if it goes to court, if the public says that the public is right and the woman says that the woman is right, the Mitsui consortium will not be affected too much.

Chen Dongfang and the others were really itching with hatred: This little devil is like a toad jumping up to his feet.

Seeing this, Mitsuiki suppressed the anger and aggrieved for many days, and finally found a way to release:

"Haha, if it were me, I would be very happy to accept this great gift, a billion dollars, the vast majority of people will not be able to earn this wealth even if they spend their entire lives."

Suddenly, Liu Qingshan's cold voice came over: "Mr. Mitsui, looking at your appearance, it seems that you are not giving out one billion US dollars, but getting one billion US dollars."

The smile froze on Mitsui's face immediately, and he glared at Liu Qingshan bitterly: "Qingshan-san, let me give you a word, don't be greedy."

Liu Qingshan smiled and shook his head: "If Mr. Mitsui hadn't been greedy for my earth network, how could we be here today?"

Mitsui's face turned red in an instant. These words were too cruel. Although the final decision was made by the board of directors, the source was still with him.

It was Masao Mitsui who was experienced, knowing that his son was no match for Liu Qingshan, so he quickly took over:

"Liu Jun, we don't need to fight with each other. We will still be partners in the future. Peace is the most important thing."

"Who is your partner?" Chen Dongfang said angrily.

Mitsui Masao didn't care: "If we exchange positions, I will definitely agree."

In the battle of father and son, Mitsui Ki also gave his father a voice: "If you want to get all the shares of Columbia, you can, as long as you give us one billion US dollars, then all the shares in our hands will belong to you."

I've never seen such a shameless person!

The people on Liu Qingshan's side all became very ugly, and everyone was really angry.

And Mitsuki was even more proud: "Don't say one billion dollars, five hundred million dollars, as long as five hundred million dollars, no, even if it's only two hundred million dollars, are you willing to do it, do you have the courage, hahaha..."

In the conference hall, only this guy's wild laughter echoed.

"Mitsui-kun, can you count on what you say?"

Liu Qingshan's voice suddenly sounded, interrupting Mitsuiki's wild laughter.

"The members of the Mitsui family must do what they say." Masao Mitsui also stood up for his son. He did not believe that Liu Qingshan would be willing to spend [-] million US dollars for nothing.

And Liu Qingshan stood up resolutely: "Okay, it's a deal, I'll pay the two hundred million dollars!"

There was an uproar in the meeting hall immediately, and even the reporters felt incredible.

But the way they looked at Liu Qingshan didn't look like they were joking at all.

Of course Liu Qingshan was not joking, he calculated very clearly in his heart:

Putting aside the matter of betting, it only cost a total of [-] million U.S. dollars to acquire most of Columbia's shares. Isn't that cabbage price?

If the other party is really entangled, it is normal for a lawsuit to drag on for three to five years.

At that time, he can produce a few more good movies, which can double the assets of Columbia Pictures, and if he still cares about these three melons, he can just treat it as a beggar.

Mitsui Masao also quickly realized: Just now the lion should have opened his mouth wide!

Under the eyes of everyone, he really didn't have the face to go back on his word, so he could only give Mitsui a hard look: "It's not enough to succeed, it's more than nothing to fail."

However, Mitsuki was not convinced: at least getting back [-] million would relieve the company's tight finances.

Being greedy for small things and losing big things is talking about short-sighted people like him.

Liu Qingshan cut through the mess quickly and reached an agreement with Masao Mitsui on the spot.

All that remains is to immediately call the second sister from the United States to form a team and take over the Columbia company.

After the equity delivery is completed, the promised [-] million US dollars will be paid immediately, and the two parties will be completely settled.

After the agreement was signed, the reporters couldn't hold back for a long time, and stepped forward to interview one after another. Some surrounded Liu Qingshan, but more people surrounded the representatives of the Mitsui Consortium:

"Chairman Mitsui, what's the matter with the two billion dollars? Do you feel like you've been sent away?"

This is a reporter from Hong Kong Island, of course he is on Liu Qingshan's side.

"Mr. Mitsuki, right? Can I ask you a question, do you still have the courage to bet with Mr. Mountain in the future?"

This is a reporter from the United States. The question is rather tricky, and Mitsui's nostrils are so angry that he almost burst into flames: Baga, I will jump into the well if I bet again!

Mitsui and his son were bombarded indiscriminately by the reporters, and they were a bit battered. Although they got back [-] million US dollars, they lost all their face.

The reporters on Liu Qingshan's side had mostly normal questions.

A foreign reporter asked on behalf of everyone: "Mr. Mountain, why do you have to pay an additional [-] million U.S. dollars to Mitsui, which is obviously outside the contract between the two parties."

Liu Qingshan smiled: "This amount of money can be considered as my purchase of Columbia Pictures."

The reporter suddenly realized that, yes, the headline of tomorrow's newspaper will be there: Big deal, [-] million won the Columbia company.

Then I heard Liu Qingshan's faint voice: "It's only [-] million, it's not enough for me to earn from one movie."

The American reporter blinked his eyes twice, as if he wanted to refute, but thinking about the movies Liu Qingshan has produced in the past few years, it seems that he is not talking big.

Both Home Alone and The Matrix seem to have this qualification.

But these words were extremely unpleasant to Mitsui's ears, he couldn't help but snorted coldly:

"Hmph, don't think that you are complacent because of your achievements. Maybe your next movie will fail miserably at the box office."

Liu Qingshan was not angry at all: "Mr. Mitsui, if you don't believe me, let's make another bet?"

In one sentence, Mitsui Ki's face turned purple, he flicked his arms, and left the conference hall directly.

Bet you, go dreaming.

Behind him, the reporters laughed happily, as if there was a new headline: Who is the person who can help others quit gambling completely?

Mitsui Masao also led someone to leave. What Liu Qingshan said just now made him feel very heartbroken.

The two hundred million I got seemed to suddenly become unsavory, and I felt as if I had lost several billion.

The reporters also left one after another. Of course, before leaving, the employees of Longteng Company would definitely secretly give the reporters some money.

When only his own people were left in the living room, Huang Yueming applauded first.

Immediately there was applause and cheers. It is indeed worth celebrating to get Columbia Pictures at such a small price.

This is the first time for a domestic entrepreneur to win a well-known film company in the United States.

It is still Liu Qingshan who pioneered, and he now has several auras: the first Internet portal website listed in the United States.

There is also the acquisition of the WANG computer, making Liu Qingshan the first Chinese entrepreneur who owns a well-known company in the United States.

All kinds of titles are added to this young man, and people look forward to it even more, expecting that Liu Qingshan will definitely create more miracles in the future.

Just when everyone was cheering and celebrating, a group of people came in outside the meeting room, headed by Boss Huo, who was seen clasping his hands in a quack manner:

"Brother Qingshan, congratulations, brother, I really admire you!"

Boss Huo and the others have already arrived and have been waiting in another room. This is by no means a compliment. Even these tycoons on Hong Kong Island are mostly playing on their own territory on Hong Kong Island.

They have neither the guts nor the ability to climb to a higher stage.

Pan Mingpai also looked envious: "That's Columbia Film Company, brother, brother will depend on you from now on."

Over the years, Pan Mingpai started his own business and worked hard to create a huge family business, so he thinks highly of himself.

But the person who really convinced him, Liu Qingshan ranked first.

Pan Mingpai now also has its own film and television company, and has also made stars like Xingzi popular.

But there is no comparison with Columbia Pictures, which can enter the top five in the world.

Liu Qingshan's joy was also palpable: "Brothers, please don't flatter me, okay, I'll put on a show tonight, and everyone will be happy together."

Boss Huo waved his hand: "When I'm in my brother's territory, how can I use you? When I go to the United States and your company, don't forget to introduce me to a Hollywood female star."

This guy, what he said just now was good, but in a blink of an eye his true colors were revealed.

The other young and old naturally followed suit, and then surrounded Liu Qingshan together and went out to have a carnival.

Liu Qingshan also completely let go of his worries, and led Wu Tong to relax for a while.

In the past few days, his mind has been in a state of high tension.

When the dance was coming to an end, Boss Huo also handed Liu Qingshan an invitation letter.

At first Liu Qingshan thought it belonged to some tycoon in Hong Kong Island, and was about to refuse, but when he saw the name on it, it read: The First Chinese Entrepreneurs Conference.

The venue is the Lion City in Nanyang.

"Brother Qingshan, you are all from my father's generation who can participate in this conference. You are the only one who is as young as you."

Boss Huo's tone was a bit sour, because even he hadn't received a formal invitation, so he could only attend as his father's attendant.

Liu Qingshan reached out and patted Boss Huo on the shoulder: "Haha, keep working hard."

Boss Huo hated his teeth a little itchy: "No, you have to introduce me to two Hollywood female stars."

At this time, a gentle voice came over: "What are you talking about, so happy?"
