Chapter 583 Extremely ridiculous(1/2)
Although he agreed with Tao Yumo's idea, Tao Yushu still thought that his sister's idea this time was too erratic.
Yulang Institution has just acquired Sugar Games, and the cash flow in the account is not enough to support a acquisition of hundreds of millions of dollars. If the acquisition is successful, it must raise funds or borrow money.
When she talked about this issue with Tao Yumo in the evening, Tao Yumo said with confidence: "Didn't you just earned two sums of money before? You are idle and you can use it here."
After the Sugar Game was acquired, the two sisters each received a cash payment and Tao Yushu shared 110 million yuan.
After the acquisition case, Tao Yushu took advantage of the new high of Yulang Institution's stock price and reduced his holdings of some shares.
In the past few years since Tao Yushu acquired Yulang Institution, the company's performance has been booming and the development situation is gratifying. She has never reduced her holdings in her shares. For the first time, investors have not been disgusted.
In early August, Yulang Institution disclosed Tao Yushu's share reduction plan, and the share reduction accounted for 4.9% of Yulang Institution's total share capital, on the grounds that it was its own demand.
Yulang Institution emphasized in the announcement that the excessive concentration of major shareholders' shares is not conducive to the company's long-term development.
Tao Yushu's share reduction did not cause the Yulang Institution's stock price to fall, but many people were happy to see it.
The stock price of Yulang Institution has been rising steadily in recent years, which is a very good investment target for many investors.
In addition to various taxes, Tao Yushu has received another 240 million yuan of funds, and Tao Yushu has earned 350 million yuan of funds in the past three months.
Tao Yushu widened his eyes and said, "You can think of it? If the company's money is compensated, you still have to pay me?"
"Bao, babe, babe! Crow's mouth! Can you say something auspicious?"
Tao Yumo thought about it and said again: "Sister, think about it, the company has just acquired Sugar Game and has launched another acquisition case. The market may not be as much as before.
It is easy to be labeled as aggressive investment, causing stock prices to fall.
Now that we are taking out real money to support the acquisition, what else can those investors say? It is of great benefit to stabilizing the stock price!"
Tao Yumo thought very well, but Tao Yushu knew clearly that it was impossible to stabilize the stock price by this method.
What the capital market needs to see is not that you share the risks for him, but that you make money for him.
Seeing that she was still hesitant, Tao Yumo said, "Then like this, I borrowed this money from you. I personally paid part of it, the company paid part, and jointly acquired Pixar."
Tao Yushu didn't expect that his sister would have such great determination, "Are you sure?"
"Confirm!" Tao Yumo's attitude was firm.
"Oh, okay! You don't have to borrow it anymore. Can't I make a purchase?"
With Tao Yushu's approval, Tao Yumo received her "transfer task" from Yulang's organization to acquire Pixar Animation one by one.
"Wait for the good news of my victory!"
Before taking the opportunity to go to the United States, Tao Yumo put down his bold words and fully explained what it means to be a newborn Niu Xu is not afraid of a tiger.
The day after she left, Lin Chaoyang received news from Luan Walter from the United States that Ron Woodruff had passed away.
Since being diagnosed with advanced AIDS in 1985, Ron Woodruff and the disease, the FDA and drugmakers fought for 2557 days.
On September 12, 1992, this extremely arduous war finally ended.
At the last minute of his life, when the only Dallas Buyer Club, Ron Woodruff, will be released, and a warning to director Martin Scorsese:
"Don't find Hollywood sissy to play me!"
Listening to the retelling of Luan Walter, Lin Chaoyang couldn't help but laugh when he felt sad.
Because of the hot sale of "Dallas Buyer Club", Ron Woodruin's story has become a household name in the United States in the past six months.
Dozens of American media reported on his death, and the news was overwhelming, and to some extent it was a great honor.
If Ron Woodruff had a spirit in heaven, he should feel rest.
What he feared the most was to leave the world silently, and now the whole world remembers him.
Leaving without regrets, Lin Chaoyang felt that this was also a relief for Ron Woodruff.
On the phone, Luan Walter also talked about another situation. The news of Ron Woodruff's death led to another hot sale of the novel "Dallas Buyer Club".
Such a situation is also expected to develop, and people will always pursue hot news.
According to the current situation, the sales of "Dallas Buyer Club" in the United States are expected to exceed 3 million copies this year, one step closer to Lin Chaoyang's promise to Ron Woodruff's 5.3 million copies.
Two weeks later, Tao Yumo returned triumphantly from the United States.
Of course, this is just her own feeling, and Tao Yushu doesn't think so.
Previously, the two sisters communicated about the acquisition on the phone, and Tao Yumo cut the acquisition price of Pixar animation from US$180 million to US$130 million, and his words were full of satisfaction.
But in Tao Yushu's opinion, she is still too young.
Pixar's boss is called Jobs. Although that person doesn't like Chinese people, he will not be able to get along with money. He dared to call a price of $180 million before, just to test the acquisition intention of the acquirer.
He shouted high prices to almost every company that came to negotiate acquisitions, but the numbers were slightly different, commonly known as the one who took the opportunity to deal with the dishes.
Jobs bid $140 million to Microsoft, and his psychological price is likely to drop by about 10% to 20%.
That is, it is between about 120 and 140 million.
These days, Tao Yumo thought he had made contributions to the negotiations, but he didn't know that he had completely fallen into the other party's plan.
But Tao Yumo is stubborn and she is about to take over the company. She is participating in the company's major decision for the first time.
Tao Yushu didn't want to wipe out her face either.
Just spend some money in vain, I hope I can earn it back.
"Don't always be stern, spending money is to make money better."
Seeing that Tao Yushu was in a bad mood, Tao Yumo advised him.
"Can I be happy if you go out and spread the net profit of Yulang institution for almost five years? Pixar lost for several years, how different do you think it will be in your hands?"
Outside, Tao Yushu was afraid of shaking the morale of the army, so he kept silent about the acquisition led by Tao Yumo. When the two sisters were alone, she really couldn't speak up when she saw Tao Yumo's proud look.
"The acquisition of Pixar is of course very stressful for Yulang's organization, but I think the situation is optimistic.
Pixar and Disney—"
At the beginning of Pixar's creation, Dituni became their client, but not in collaboration with movies, but Pixar provided technical support for computer animation for Dituni.
That is, the computer animation production system. After the successful development of this software, it provided a lot of help to Dituni's animation development business, and also made Dituni turn its attention to Pixar.
The two sides have been negotiating before, and Dituni hopes to invest in Pixar to produce animated films, and they will pay the production funds, and the marketing and distribution of the film will also be handed over to them.
The most important thing is that Disney wants to obtain ownership of the computer animation production system.
But in this way, Pixar is selling out the company's core technology for the sake of an outsourcing business.
Pixar naturally couldn't agree.
The two sides had been tug at the war for a while before, but never reached an agreement.
Now that Pixar is about to change hands, Tao Yumo believes that this is a good opportunity. As long as he can reach cooperation with Dituni, Pixar can turn losses into profits.
And you think about it from another perspective. In the past few years, Jobs has invested nearly 70 million US dollars in Pixar, accounting for most of his wealth.
If it weren't for the failure of the sale several times, and if it weren't for negotiations with Dituni, would he sell the company to us?
Now Pixar's technical strength is even coveted by Dituni. If it weren't for the concern that this was a burden that would affect financial reports, would you think Disney wouldn't be tempted?"
Tao Yushu snorted coldly, "According to what you said, are we still getting a bargain?"
"It can't be said to be a bargain, but it does have advantages and disadvantages."
This girl said one by one, which made Tao Yushu feel a little headache. She waved her hand helplessly.
"I will not invest this money again after I pay it. You will be responsible for your own profits and losses."
Tao Yumo went to the United States and only completed the preliminary due diligence negotiations for Pixar's acquisition. This time he came back to report the situation to Tao Yushu, and the other was to bring the funds back to the United States, sign the contract smoothly, and take Pixar.
In order to acquire Pixar Animation, the sisters and Yulang institution have to pay nearly HK$1 billion. The key is that this investment will definitely not see any benefits in the short term, and the pressure is not small.
Lin Chaoyang, who had been a background board for a long time, spoke at this time, "Or else, I'll lend you some money 2
Hearing this, Tao Yumo's eyes lit up, "Brother-in-law, how much money do you have?"
"How much do you want to borrow?"
Mouth~ this tone!
Tao Yumo's expectation was almost overflowing.
"800 million?"
"You really dare to think about it."
Tao Yumo smiled guiltily, "I just asked casually. How about - 300 million?"
With HK$300 million, it is exactly 40 million US dollars. Tao Yumo is very confident that he can revitalize Pixar animation with these funds.
Seeing Lin Chaoyang thinking seriously, she couldn't help but be amazed. Can she really take it out?
The two of them were talking and the roadblock appeared.
"Don't you count my money, but you also need to count your brother-in-law's money? So, she spent 1 billion at once, and you also contributed to the fire!"
Tao Yushu scolded both of them, and Lin Chaoyang said with a slight slightest, "Didn't you pay her too? If you want to add fuel to the fire, you are the first one."
Tao Yushu was speechless, and Lin Chaoyang said softly again: "Isn't it because you two are under too much pressure? How can you see the benefits so quickly after acquiring the company?"
