Mr. Merck looked at the three major shareholders with a serious face, and beat them with words;
"I hope that you will treat this closed-door private negotiation with a professional attitude. Goldman Sachs leads hundreds of mergers and acquisitions every year because of our expertise.
In the name of Goldman Sachs, the boss king specially invited to Los Angeles to participate in the negotiations. This is an important meeting between king and king. I hope everyone can cherish this precious opportunity.
Now that you have sat at the negotiating table, it means that you have the willingness to reach a deal, now is the time for you to show your determination.
The Playboy brand transfer is valued at 163 million US dollars. We will discuss this based on this. Please share your views. "
"Uhlet me talk about it."
With the consent of the other two, Mr. Madoff said: "Playboy brand authorization can bring stable cash flow to the group company, including glasses, bags, clothing, sporting goods and toys. The annual brand licensing fee can reach 6.8 million US dollars.
So we think the Playboy brand is worth $260 million, which is a good price. "
"Are you crazy? Mr. Madoff, the Playboy brand that owns Playboy magazine is worth more than 300 million. The Playboy brand that has lost its soul is not worth that much. 163 million US dollars is an objective valuation. Our Goldman Sachs Stick to that again."
"Mr. Merck, it takes time to measure the intangible value of the Playboy brand. Let us look at it rationally. He is worth at least 220 million US dollars."
"According to what you said, Boss King acquired the Playboy brand, with a yearly income of 6.8 million U.S. dollars, and it will take more than 30 years to recover the investment. This is still on the premise that the bank interest is not calculated. The Chanel brand will not be sold so expensive. Our most It can be offered for $1.75, which is a very sincere price.¡±
"200 million US dollars, really can't be less, otherwise I can't explain to investors."
"Be professional, don't let emotions replace reason, 175 million US dollars, you can't give it any higher."
"190 million US dollars, we hope to reach a deal, but we will never sell our brand cheap, I insist on this."
On the negotiating table, two people were at war with each other, bargaining like vendors in a vegetable market.
The only difference is that a "100 million" dollar unit is added after the price, which makes the price look much taller.
When the price was cut to 180 million US dollars, Mr. Merck saw Wang Yaocheng lightly nod his head, and happily extended his hand; "Bingo, I have to admire Mr. Madoff's professionalism. He strives for the interests of investors. He has a noble character and The most professional brokerage spirit is the toughest opponent I have encountered."
Good words are worthless anyway, as long as the deal is concluded, the cunning Mr. Merck will hand over two baskets.
According to the calculation;
Group founder Hugh Hefner owns 35% of the Playboy brand
Mr. Pierce, the second largest shareholder of the Playboy Group, holds a 22% stake in the Playboy brand.
Mr. Madoff, Chairman of Madoff Company, represented small and medium-sized investors holding a 31% stake in the Playboy brand and participated in private closed-door negotiations.
Adding up the three, they own a total of 88% of the equity of the Playboy brand, and can get a total of 158.4 million US dollars, and the remaining 12% of the scattered equity is worth about 20 million US dollars.
Collected on behalf of Mr. Madoff, which requires a commission of 3% of the total transaction amount.
? This acquisition transaction was concluded, and everyone was very happy, and finally they all gained.
Wang Yaocheng plans to put the acquired Playboy brand under the private Caribbean holding company, and continue to maintain the current brand licensing structure. This investment will take a few years, and it will not have an immediate effect.
After tense negotiations, we entered the stage of relaxed chatting.
"Hi! Boss Wang, are you interested in NBA basketball?"
"I like sports very much. I like both Major League Baseball and NBA basketball. This season, I also bought a package ticket for the NBA Lakers. If I have the opportunity, I will go and cheer for them."
"Hehe, I'm afraid you don't know yet. The Houston Rockets are now looking for buyers everywhere. Its owner is going to sell the team. The owner of the wnba Houston Comets, Leslie Alexander, has a strong interest. I heard that the offer is 85 million US dollars. A deal is close."
"Well, this is also a shrewd Jew."
Hearing this news suddenly, Wang Yaocheng's heart beat almost a beat slower;
Ma Dan, in the 1993, when money was flowing everywhere, it was everywhere.?? Going to pick it up!
I am a hard-working porter who is tired and happy.
"Cool, Houston Rockets? I'd be very interested in buying a team for fun."
One sentence from Wang Yaocheng made Mr. Merck's eyes brighten, and the business came again; "Boss King, as long as you are really interested, this Houston Rockets belongs to you."
"Oh! How do you say this?"
"Leslie Alexander's wealth will not exceed 100 million US dollars. Buying the Rockets is a big gamble for him. More than half of the huge sum of 85 million US dollars comes from the bank. We can easily crush him. I think Plus $1-2 million, a phone call to a local bank friend is enough to make the other party change his mind, and if it¡¯s safe, the price of $8,800 is enough to snatch the team over.¡±
"That is to say, including your commission, it will not exceed 90 million U.S. dollars."
"Very correct."
Wang Yaocheng said plainly; "Then buy it."
As soon as this remark came out, the attention of the crowd was really stunned. What is embarrassment?
They didn't really understand until today that buying an nba team is as easy as buying a hamburger. The whole consideration process took less than a minute, and they bought it with a twist of their mouths.
This is the real force, the awesome kind.
Mr. Merck smiled happily, and millions of dollars have entered the account. It is a lie to say that he is not happy; "Please wait a moment, I will make a call."
after awhile
Mr. Merck came over beamingly and said, "King Boss, the deal is fine. I'm afraid you have to go to Houston yourself."
"Do you have to go there?"
"should be."
"All right!"
Wang Yaocheng was far from being as ordinary as he appeared on the surface, and he was already very happy in his heart, secretly thinking that luck is really good, this is really a very good investment.
In the original history;
In 1993, Alexander bought the Rockets for $85 million. The Rockets soon won the 1994 season championship under the leadership of Hakeem Olajuwon and others. This was the first time the Rockets won the championship in history.
They completed the defending title in the 1995 season. The Rockets were able to win consecutive championships in 1994 and 1995, and there was a lot of luck in it.
Because, Michael Jordan announced his retirement for the first time.
In 1993, the king of nba basketball, the flying man Jordan led the Chicago Bulls to win three consecutive championships and established a brilliant Bulls dynasty.
However, the joy did not last long. Jordan received the bad news that his father had been murdered. This made him discouraged and retired from the basketball court, preparing to fulfill his father's and his long-cherished wish-to enter the American Major League Baseball.
The Houston Rockets' two championship victories were based on the disappearance of their most powerful enemy, the flying man Jordan. The championship team, the Bulls, had no leader, which can be said to be very lucky.
Air Jordan retired three years for the first time, and the Rockets won two championships, which is the biggest beneficiary.
Alexander, the owner of the Rockets, also picked up a big wallet because of this, and his net worth skyrocketed. He was called the lucky "Alexander" in the league.
Now it seems that the lucky hat will be worn on Wang Yaocheng's head. According to his strong financial resources, Leslie Alexander couldn't even think of competing, and was completely crushed without any accident.
In a highly developed commercial society like the United States, the thickness of the wallet is always what determines the status and confidence of the rich.
Back to Hilton Hotel
? Wang Yaocheng was about to explode with joy, and successively included the Playboy brand and the Houston Rockets. This extreme sense of success kept him awake at night.
He paced back and forth in the hotel, raised his wrist to check the time, it was 12:20 midnight, not too late.
Wang Yaocheng took out a phone number from his pocket, hesitated to call it;
"Julia, please forgive me, I am very sorry to disturb you so late, I was wondering if you would like to come out for a drink?"
A woman's lazy voice came from the other end of the phone; "Oh, it's really late, is it just a drink?"
"Yes, I made two good deals today, and I'm so excited that I don't feel sleepy at all. I really want to talk to someone."
"Well, let's meet at the Pine Tree Town Bar, the owner is a friend of mine."
