"Stephen, since you have a good relationship with Moduo, then I will negotiate with him, so there is no need to hurt your friendship."
Yi Xiaohai made a decision.
He bought Forbes just to prevent the magazine from exposing him.
Momoduo and Stephen are good friends, so there is no need for him to compete.
As long as Momoduo promises not to expose him again in the future, he can sell Stephen a favor and solve the problem without spending money.
Why wouldn¡¯t Yi Xiaohai do it?
night,
After the banquet started, Yi Xiaohai and Momo met more.
¡°This figure who often appears on the rich list does not have the arrogance of Americans, and he does not have so much prejudice against China.
Because he has a Chinese wife,
Probably because of this, he knows some Chinese and is able to communicate.
Momoduo seemed to be a straightforward person and asked Yi Xiaohai straight to the point what he thought.
Yi Xiaohai did not mince words and directly stated his purpose of acquiring Forbes.
Momoduo also said that as long as he can succeed in the acquisition, he will not disclose information about Yi Xiaohai without Yi Xiaohai's permission.
The two people reached an agreement easily.
Momoduo himself does not object to Yi Xiaohai not only because of his wife, but also for another important reason, because he is very interested in Yi Xiaohai's investment.
Americans don¡¯t like to save cash.
They invest money when they have money, and Momoduo is no exception.
The reputation of the Han and Tang Dynasties is not well-known among the people, but it is still very famous among the wealthy circles in the United States.
Momoduo is good friends with Stephen, so he naturally knows a lot about things in the financial world. He knows Yi Xiaohai's reputation.
So I want to find Yi Xiaohai for financial management.
Americans and Chinese people have different ideas.
If he were in China, Momoduo would definitely choose to give the funds to his friend, that is, Stephen.
But in the United States, you don¡¯t care so much.
Yi Xiaohai can help Momoduo make more money, and Stephen takes it for granted that Momoduo chooses Yi Xiaohai.
"Momoduo, I'm an investor. I help you manage your assets. Naturally, I didn't ask him. But I wonder if you are interested in joining Han and Tang?"
Yi Xiaohai now wants to gather all the forces that can be united. Momo Duo is in a good mood for him, and he also extends an olive branch.
If more wealthy Americans join the Han and Tang dynasties, the status of the Han and Tang dynasties in the United States will be more stable.
Momoduo obviously did not expect that Yi Xiaohai would propose cooperation when meeting him for the first time.
He also has some small differences.
???????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????? Since Han and Tang are so famous, it¡¯s a good thing to join, but the price is a bit scary.
The valuation of 10 billion US dollars is considered small, 5% is 500 million.
He heard from Stephen that Yi Xiaohai liked cash transactions, but he couldn't afford so much cash.
"Yi, I'm very interested in joining the Han and Tang Dynasties. I wonder how you want to cooperate?"
No matter what, Momoduo still needs to listen to Yi Xiaohai¡¯s specific thoughts.
His goal is the media, but the media also needs capital support.
¡°If we can establish in-depth cooperation with a wealthy person like Yi Xiaohai, it will be of great benefit to him personally and to News Corporation.
"Cross shareholding"
Yi Xiaohai¡¯s ability to adapt to changing situations is not to be underestimated.
When Momoduo expressed his interest in investment, he immediately thought about what Momoduo could bring to him.
Public opinion!
News media publicity can be used by old companies to consolidate consumer loyalty, and new companies can use it to build brand awareness.
Yi Xiaohai has always set his sights on foreign countries, especially the North American and European markets.
However, these two major markets have a high level of xenophobia against China. Longteng Group is a good example.
No matter how powerful you are, going deep alone is a taboo for military strategists.
Europe and the United States are both dragon's and tiger's dens for Chinese companies. If you enter, you will be a lone army and it will be difficult to survive, let alone open the market.
If you want to occupy these two major markets, you must learn to take root first.
To take root is to secretly expand your roots infinitely and intertwine them with the roots of other big trees until no one can separate them even if they want to.
At that time, it¡¯s time for you to sprout.
Why is Yi Xiaohai acquiring shares secretly instead of blatantly?
It is because he has not yet rooted his roots deeper and further, and the time has not yet come.
Moduo, Stephen, including Jones and Demian are all the people he took root in. He used Han and Tang Dynasties to pull them onto his warship and form a community of interests.
That way, all his future plans can be implemented.
Momoduo did not expect that Yi Xiaohai would propose cross-shareholding.
You must know that Yi Xiaohai is engaged in finance, and News Corporation does not have a big role for him.
But the Han and Tang Dynasties were very helpful to News Corporation.
News Corp. is a listed company and is the target of many financial oligarchs.
When the weather is calm, the water in the well does not interfere with the water in the river.
When there is any crisis in the group and there is a problem with the stock price, those people will come to bite the flesh.
Although Stephen is his friend, he does not have the final say in Dalmore.
If you run into trouble, it¡¯s just personal help.
But the Han and Tang Dynasties were different.
"If you slap the abundant funds on the table, you can kill those people with money."
The key is the prestige of the Han and Tang Dynasties in the financial world.
News Corporation cooperated with Han and Tang Dynasties. Those financial oligarchs who wanted to deal with him had to weigh their own strength in advance. Yi Xiaohai was famously stingy.
Hongsheng is an example,
Because of the quarrel with Yi Xiaohai, his vitality was seriously damaged, but he finally shook hands with Yi Xiaohai and made peace.
so,
If News Corporation and Hantang cross shareholding, it will be a very cost-effective deal for Momoduo.
"Yi, how many shares are you willing to take out for cross-shareholding, and what is the valuation of Han and Tang North America?"
The market value of News Corporation is obvious and clear.
Momo Duo is worried that Yi Xiaohai¡¯s valuation of Han and Tang North America is very high, so he needs to consider it.
"$10 billion"
Momoduo almost jumped up,
It¡¯s not because it¡¯s too high, it¡¯s because it¡¯s such a good deal.
The valuation of the Han and Tang dynasties cannot be measured just by how much money they have.
Because Yi Xiaohai is so perverted, he may have doubled his assets in just one month.
Momoduo also knows this.
He also knew that the last time Yi Xiaohai sold shares to Jones, the valuation was also 10 billion.
It has been such a long time and the price has not increased. It is simply not a good deal.
Momo suppress the thoughts in his heart and act calmly:
"How many shares do you want to exchange?"
"5%."
Last time, Demian and Jones gave very little because their main focus was on Morgan Stanley and could not play a good role in Yi Xiaohai's overall layout.
But the silent news group is different.
He owns TV stations and various newspapers in North America and Europe, and it can be said that he has a great power of public opinion.
Taking root is the first step for Yi Xiaohai to open up the two major markets. The second step is guidance
