In the Wang family villa on the outskirts of Los Angeles.
Wang Wei took a cup of fragrant Longjing and took a sip gently: "Our Chinese tea tastes better." The tea Wang Wei drank was bought from the mainland by Li Zhengping from Hong Kong. Smuggled fresh tea.
Closing his eyes and taking a deep breath of the aroma of tea that wafted out with the steam, Wang Wei raised his head and said to Barry Diller, who was sitting opposite him: "How about it, Diller, have you decided? If so, I'll let him Peter started negotiating the acquisition."
Barry Diller, who was sitting opposite Wang Wei, frowned for a long time after listening to Wang Wei's words, and then said with twinkling eyes: "Wang, in fact, you don't have to buy ABC at a high price. If you set up your own broadcasting company, I I believe the cost will be reduced by at least half! This money is more than enough to invest in several big-budget movies!¡±
After listening to Barry Diller's words, Wang Wei smiled and shook his head and said: "Diller, this doesn't sound like you. Haven't you always wanted to return to ABC? Why are you now persuading me to set up my own radio and television network?"
In response to Wang Wei's rhetorical question, Barry Diller shook his head with a wry smile and said: "To be honest, as far as my personal feelings are concerned, I was very happy when I heard you said you wanted to acquire ABC. I can't wait to go back immediately and see those things. The old guys who bullied me are stunned. But from a business perspective, I think this is definitely a very uneconomical acquisition for you. Besides, the unpleasant things in the past are over."
"But you gave me a new life. Without you, I believe that I would be a high-level wage earner at best and would never become one of the owners of MGM. Let alone gain the respect of those business owners. You gave me I have so much, so I think I should express something instead of just selfishly thinking about my own little things!¡±
When Barry Diller said these words, he obviously went through a fierce struggle. After all, for a successful entrepreneur, money is not the most important thing. The important thing is to get revenge on those who have bullied him. If successful. But you can't feel proud. Doesn't this mean that the pearl is cast into darkness and the brocade clothes walk at night? Such success would be at least half the fun.
So making this decision was extremely difficult for Barry Diller.
Looking at the unnatural expression on Barry Diller's face, Wang Wei smiled slightly and said slowly: "Diller, I'm surprised that you can say such a thing. It makes me feel that my hard work has not been in vain."
When Barry Diller, whose mouth was already stiff, heard Wang Wei say this. The bitter smile on his face subconsciously worsened a bit, and at the same time he said sadly in his heart: "It seems that my idea of ??going back to avenge my shame is going to go to waste."
Who would have thought that just when Barry Diller was feeling sad, he suddenly saw Wang Wei smile mysteriously and said: "But Barry Diller, have you ever heard of the saying, you are affectionate and I am righteous?"
"What do you mean, Mike?" Inertial thinking has made Barry Diller, who has always had good adaptability, become a little slow!
In response to Barry Diller¡¯s question, the corners of Wang Wei¡¯s mouth turned up slightly. However, he did not answer, but turned his head to Peter Lynch beside him.
Counting this year, Peter Lynch has entered the third holding company for five years. During these five years, Peter Lynch is no longer the same person he was when he first entered the third holding company. An employee of a small trust company was stunned by Third Holdings Capital. In five years, the large acquisitions handled by Peter Lynch can reach at least double digits. There are countless investments, not to mention the near ones, but also the investment in Apple Computer Company, which is far away, which can be said to be a typical example of successful investment. Even on Wall Street, Peter Lynch is considered a big name. Some people have even ranked Peter Lynch and Buffett as the twin heroes of Wall Street.
And unlike the parallel space, Peter Lynch's name was listed in front of Buffett, and he won the title of stock god that originally belonged to investors to name Buffett, but Buffett only got the title of stock god that belonged to Peter Lynch in the parallel space. call.
So when he saw Wang Wei looking towards him, Peter Lynch immediately said knowingly: "Mr. Diller, the truth is, for a financial acquisition, not only its actual capital must be looked at, but also its actual capital. The potential value you just mentioned is just the price of setting up a national television network. As a commercial operating company, we not only have to build this television network, but we also have to find ways to make this television network profitable."
"As a media organization, if you want to make a profit, you must have enough visibility! And this visibility also requires us to spend money to do it, so these must also be included. More importantly, there are some things that can be bought with money. , and there are some things that money cannot buy, such as time, which means that even if we have money now, we can increase the popularity of our TV network.??But it also takes a certain amount of time, and these can also be counted as commercial value! "
When Peter Lynch listed the reasons one by one, Barry Diller frowned, constantly considering the reasons listed by Peter Lynch in his mind!
So when Peter Lynch stopped, Barry Diller asked: "But the cost of acquiring ABC is not as high as the total cost!"
After listening to Barry Diller's words, Peter Lynch glanced at Wang Wei subconsciously, and then said leisurely: "Yes, Mr. Diller, I have raised the same question before, but the boss said something that made me completely It changed all my previous predictions!¡±
After hearing what Peter Lynch said, Barry Diller couldn't help but asked, "What are you talking about?"
"Talent, the boss said, goods have a price, but talents are priceless, so as long as you can retain talents, no matter how much money you spend, it is worth it!"
At this point, Peter Lynch took a deep look at Wang Wei, and then said word for word: "So these so-called price differences are just a potential investment in talents by the boss!"
Peter Lynch¡¯s words stunned Barry Diller instantly!
After a long time, Barry Diller suddenly realized that this so-called talent refers to himself!
This is hundreds of millions of dollars! How could Wang Weiyun invest in him so lightly! At this thought, Barry Diller's eyes instantly turned red! There is an old Chinese saying that a scholar will die for a confidant. At this time, Barry Diller's heart was full of this feeling!
In Barry Diller¡¯s view, Wang Wei is his God. Since meeting Wang Wei, everything about him has changed, his life has changed, his status has changed, and his value has changed.
Holding Wang Wei¡¯s hand, Barry Diller babbled for a long time without uttering a complete sentence!
Wang Wei couldn¡¯t help but laugh when he saw Barry Diller, who was always eloquent, stuttering! Turning around and nodding towards Peter Lynch!
Peter Lynch knowingly took out a stack of copies of the equity transfer agreement from the briefcase he carried and handed it to Wang Wei!
After Wang Wei took the copy, he handed it to Barry Diller without looking at it and said: "Diller, don't be too happy here. I have acquired this TV broadcasting company. If it is not managed well in the future, I will But he wants to be prosecuted!"
