My name is Colani

Chapter 155: Meet the Strong Woman 2

"This price is good?!" Hugo sneered, "I say Ms. Berlusconi, even if it is an acquisition, your offer is too insincere. Do you know how much this website will be worth in a few years, hundreds of millions of dollars or even It’s worth US$1 billion, and now you’re paying US$50 million to buy it! Do you think I’m short of money or do you think you’re treating me as a fool?”

Hugo always talks about future value in everything. A hen can lay many, many eggs and hatch many pullets, so the price of hens is an astronomical figure.

"Mr. Colaney, it's meaningless for you to talk about this business like this! Who of us can say clearly what will happen in the future?! This way of calculation is not the correct way! According to your valuation, my price has been greatly exceeded. "No!" Marina wasn't angry either and shook her head with a smile.

"Forget it, I won't talk nonsense. Your time is precious, and my time is equally precious! I will only give you a way. We cooperate. I can sell part of the equity to you, and the management rights are still under our control. , we can have substantial cooperation in many aspects! If you are selling this Internet company, then your offer must be at least somewhat sincere! If it is less than 100 million, don’t talk to me. I would rather sell it abroad. buyer!" Hugo said.

"Oh, by the way! I finally know why you want to acquire it!" Hugo suddenly stood up from his chair.

"Haha, you are afraid! You are worried that his rise as a new media group will affect your status!" Hugo pointed out clearly.

The media industry in Italy is both private and state-owned. However, before the 1980s, Italian law only allowed the state monopoly RAI to broadcast programs nationwide, while the programs of a large number of private commercial TV stations could only be broadcast in the local area. Lusconi took advantage of this loophole and purchased a large number of TV programs from abroad, especially American Hollywood movies and soap operas, and sold them to regional television stations at low prices. Berlusconi made profits from the advertisements for these film and television programs.

This was the rise of Berlusconi Media Group. Later, Italy introduced anti-monopoly laws and national television stations could not monopolize. Berlusconi took the opportunity to acquire Italian TV Station and started his own monopoly because he operated Well, it occupies a large share of the Italian domestic market, once accounting for 80% of the commercial market.

This is very scary. Since then, the Feninwest Group has become the target of repeated harassment by the antitrust department. However, in order to protect his own interests, Berlusconi established the Forza Italia party and openly ran for election and became prime minister. If it succeeds, Feiningwester's troubles will naturally be eliminated.

Marina didn't know much about Internet communication, but the development speed of new sports was quite fast. They soon had a large mass base. With their rise in the future, who can guarantee that Hugo will not continue to expand his What about the media landscape? ! At least it looked like a real threat.

Marina really didn't expect Hugo to know so quickly that Feiningwester's true intention was to drive Hugo away.

"Since you know, you should know our sincerity!" Marina said coldly, it is always embarrassing to be seen through.

Sincerity, I think it’s more of a bad intention, Hugo thought to himself, this sports website is dispensable to him to a certain extent, and Marina is also a fool, does she think she can avoid the Internet in this way? The impact of the wave on traditional media? ! So stupid and naive!

"I won't sell it! I think it's ridiculous for your purpose. Today there are new sports, and tomorrow there will be foreign websites challenging the Italian media industry. You want to use acquisitions to eliminate this threat. It's simply ridiculous. Ridiculous! You know what’s most important for you is to change your attitude towards the Internet,” Hugo laughed.

"We can still cooperate. We can make New Sports a good job together and compete with foreign websites. No one knows the future better than me in this regard. You acquired New Sports today! Okay, I will go to the United States to register tomorrow An Internet portal, let me see how you deal with it! Continue the acquisition or let it go?" Hugo said in a threatening tone.

But this is nonsense. The most important thing in the Internet age is speed. The reason why so many Italians watch New Sports is because the server is in Italy and access will not take long. However, if the server is abroad, haha, then there is We have to wait, who has the patience to come and visit? !

How did Marina know this? She thought what Hugo said was true. She fell into deep thought. Cooperation was not a bad idea. She was not familiar with the emerging field Feiningwester, and they had just begun to get involved in this field.

"Okay, I agree that we won't adopt the acquisition model. We can cooperate. How about Feiningwester paying to buy 40% of your new sports equity?!" Marina thought for a while, and she felt that this was okay. Okay, Hugo and the others know better how to run a website, and they can even provide experience and help to Feiningwester in the future.

"How much are you going to bid?!" Hugo asked.

"It depends on the outcome of everyone's negotiation. Why, you want to know my low price?! I haven't discussed it now, so I can't give you the answer!" Marina smiled charmingly.

"I want to know, but it doesn't matter if I don't know! The purpose of my coming today is to make you give up the idea of ​​acquisition. If New Sports is sold to you, you won't be able to run it! It's better to be in my hands! I won't get involved with you Miss Julia Bonaparte is the CEO of Hugo International Investment Company, and she will be responsible for negotiating with you!" Hugo shook his head and said.

Hugo was about to leave, but Marina invited him to dinner as an apology to him, and she ignored Hugo for three days.

"We little people, just let it go. I don't care anyway. I didn't take it to heart. I'm very busy. My team is now fighting for the league championship!" Hugo said jokingly this time.

"I always feel bad if I don't treat you to a meal. You are a celebrity, so it's normal to have a temper! So let's do this. I invite you to watch the Milan derby at San Siro on May 12th. You won't refuse, right? !" Marina said.

"Well, your idea is a good one! I'm very satisfied. My brother Victor Colaini is a loyal fan of Milan!" Hugo thinks this idea is indeed a good one.

"Well, let's meet again then! I think you are really good! You are young, handsome and full of ideas. You have a great future! If I were not married, maybe I would fall in love with you!" Marina actually started teasing you. Hugo.

"Come on, come on, what's the use of talking about that?! Let's do something practical and take our cooperative relationship further!" Hugo began to take off his coat, looking like a gangster. Fortunately, there are only two people in Marina's office. And the door is closed, otherwise there will be a large crowd, which would not look good.

Marina exclaimed, "I'm just joking!"

"I know you were talking about it for fun, and I was also taking off my clothes for fun. Damn it, it's actually a bit hot!" Hugo scolded with a smile.

It is not easy to convince this strong woman. Hugo felt baffled even after leaving her company. He felt that he had convinced Marina Berlusconi inexplicably. When Garlando asked him about the situation, Hugo Guo said, "Get ready to meet the new boss!"

Garlando was immediately anxious. He also had shares in New Sports, which Hugo gave to him, but if Hugo wanted to sell, he couldn't resist. It was best to sell along with him. He didn't want to, this website was all his hard work. ah.

"Don't worry, I convinced her and I plan to sell 40% of the shares to her! From now on, we have the final say in New Sports!" Hugo laughed and stopped joking.

Garlando breathed a sigh of relief and grimaced, "I'm afraid I'll be unemployed again!"

"Unemployed?! Hahaha, something like this won't happen to Paul. Even if I can't keep New Sports, I still have other jobs for you! If I lose New Sports, I will set up a local TV station to fight against them. You will do it when the time comes. General manager! What can’t you do with money?” Hugo patted Garlando on the shoulder.

"Next, you wait for Miss Bonaparte. She will work with you to negotiate with the Feiningwester Group and try to sell the 40% of the shares at a good price. Once we get the money, we will You can divide it and put it in your own pocket! The new transfer period is about to begin again, and I am very poor!" Hugo said.

"You're not financing?!"

"No, it's a sale. I'll sell part of the equity to them! The website needs funds that can be obtained from advertising revenue, and we won't pay dividends on that part of the money." Hugo said.

"Oh, by the way, you have to make a fuss about the advertising contract and resolutely avoid long-term contracts of several years. This is simply the behavior of fools. Website advertising requires short-term contracts, and advertising fees will rise. Signing long-term contracts is stupid. This is not a traditional place. Advertisements in newspapers and media are different! You have to remember!" Hugo ordered.

Hugo knew that many popular websites in later generations had very good advertising revenue, which was the main source of website profits. The experience of making money came from later generations.
