Chapter 64

After Li Guangyu explained to the heads of various RB Group branches, he boarded a flight from Tokyo to Los Angeles on April 4th.

And when Li Guangyu arrived in the United States, it was still on the 15th, and he flew for more than [-] hours, and it is still the same day.

Li Guangyu didn't hold a high-level meeting of the American branch company with me today, but planned to hold it tomorrow morning. After all, it is already [-] pm in Los Angeles time.

After Li Guangyu washed up in the hotel, he asked Li Xuelan to book a few Lakers game tickets.

Li Guangyu liked to watch the NBA in his previous life, especially in junior high school, when the Lakers were in full swing, and the Lakers with Kobe Gasol won two championships in a row.At that time, Li Guangyu thought that if he had the opportunity, he must go to the Lakers' home court to watch a game.

But now Li Guangyu finally has such an opportunity, and Li Guangyu plans to buy a team.Based on his own understanding of the NBA, it is not enough to select some players and the team's performance is not good. Then Li Guangyu also plans to develop sports series and footwear products for clothing brands.

Today's Nike does not have Jordan, and has not yet flown into the sky, so he cut him off.Anyway, it was the American company that cut off the beard, and Li Guangyu didn't do it at all.In the future, if Nike enters a market as big as mainland China, it would be better for me to enter.

When Li Xuelan booked the tickets and came back, Li Guangyu learned that at [-]:[-] p.m. the day after tomorrow at the Great Western Forum Arena, the Lakers played against the Nuggets at home in Game [-] of the playoffs.

Li Guangyu lamented that it was a good thing that the Lakers entered the playoffs, otherwise there would be no hope of watching the Lakers' games at the Lakers' home court this year.

Li Guangyu slept long enough on the plane, although it was already night, Li Guangyu didn't feel sleepy at all.Li Guangyu thought about which team he could buy, preferably a California team.

In the morning of the next day, Li Guangyu listened to the reports from the branches of various groups in the United States, and made some arrangements, including asking him to cooperate with Li Xuelan in investigating the situation of several NBA teams in California.

……

"Sheng Li, the owner of the Lakers is currently discussing the sale of the team with Jerry Buss." After three o'clock in the afternoon, Li Xuelan hurried in and said.

Li Guangyu was overjoyed when he heard that the current Lakers did not belong to the Bass family.In his previous life, Li Guangyu always thought that the Lakers belonged to the Bass family, and never thought about buying the Lakers. Now that he has such an opportunity, how could Li Guangyu give up.

"Xue Lan, make an appointment with the owner of the Lakers for me. I want to discuss with him about the acquisition of the team." Li Guangyu ordered.

"Okay, Li Sheng, I'll contact you right away." Li Xuelan walked out after speaking.

Li Guangyu didn't care about how Li Xuelan would do it. He was looking at some information and important documents of the company in the American branch.

Li Guangyu is not very satisfied with the development of the United States. Although it is due to cultural and other reasons, such a large market is not as profitable as RB's. The profit per unit price of products here is much higher than that of RB. RB's, the result is that the total profit is far from RB.

Li Guangyu felt that it was necessary to station a high-level executive in the United States to take full charge of the business of all his companies. Moreover, he would also establish venture capital in Silicon Valley, which is where gold mines gather. Just wait for the money to be counted.

Li Guangyu thought all over the company's senior management, either they couldn't do without them, or they were inappropriate and lacked people.Li Guangyu can't help it, because the company's rapid development lies in this.

On the morning of April 4, Li Guangyu met with Lakers owner Wyvin Janis.

Li Guangyu said, "Mr. Janis, hello."

"Mr. Li, you are welcome to come to my house as a guest." Wyvin Janis said.

"Mr. Janis, do you have any plans to sell the Lakers?"

"Mr. Li is really well-informed. Why, you are also interested in my Lakers?" Huaiwen Janis certainly hoped that Li Guangyu would also participate in the acquisition of his team, so that he could sell it for a higher price.

As soon as Li Guangyu heard what he said, he knew that he must have not negotiated with Jerry Buss, which gave Li Guangyu a better chance to acquire the Lakers.

"Yes, Mr. Janis, I also like basketball very much, so I am going to buy an NBA team. I just heard that you have this willingness, so I came to visit you specially today." Li Guangyu said.

Huaiwen Janis did not immediately answer Li Guangyu's request, but said: "Mr. Jerry Buss is buying the Atlantic Forum from Will Mitty while buying the team from me, and the Los Angeles Kings ( NHL)”

Li Guangyu knows that it is not enough to just buy the Lakers now, and now he has to buy them together.However, it is not a disadvantage to buy at this time. Thinking about the market value of the Lakers in the future, Li Guangyu has made money. Not to mention that with him making some player selections, the team's market value will definitely be higher in the future.

"Mr. Janis, what price do you and Mr. Mitty plan to sell?" Li Guangyu asked.

Huaiwen Janis did not expect that Li Guangyu would still buy it after hearing this. Seeing that Li Guangyu was so young, he felt that he was the son of another big family in the East.

"Mr. Li, since you have plans to buy our team and stadium, I won't quote you a high price. You can invest [-] million in our two teams and stadium." Huaiwen Janis said.

Li Guangyu didn't expect Huaiwen Janis to ask for 5500 million US dollars, which is not a high price.I don't understand this, Li Guangyu has already inquired about Jerry Buss' offer and now it is only [-] million US dollars.It is because the bid did not meet expectations, so the deal has not yet been concluded.But even so, it would cost less than [-] million.

Li Guang said: "Mr. Janis, your asking price is too high. I heard that Mr. Jerry Bass' bidding is not too high."

After hearing what Li Guangyu said, Huaiwen Janis knew that Li Guangyu could not be fooled.So he said, "Mr. Li, how much are you going to invest?"

"Mr. Janis, what do you think of 6000 million? This is already a very high price." Li Guangyu returned.

"Mr. Li, you seriously underestimated the value of our two teams and the stadium. It is impossible for us to sell at such a price."

Li Guangyu asked: "Mr. Janis, how much is your sincere selling price?"

"Mr. Li, how about 9000 million? You must know that our Lakers are playing in the playoffs now. His prospects and market have a lot of room for improvement, and it is definitely worth this price." Waiwen Janis said.

Of course Li Guangyu knew the later value of the Lakers, but now they are not the later Lakers, so there is no need for Li Guangyu to give away so much money for free.

"Mr. Janis, I'm raising 500 million. How about I buy your two teams and stadiums for 500 million?"

Although this price has already reached the bottom line of selling, Huaiwen Janis knew that Li Guangyu could definitely go up a bit.

"Mr. Li, otherwise, we will sell you the two teams and the stadium for 8000 million."

……

In the end, Li Guangyu and Huaiwen Janis reached a deal at a price of 7000 million.Li Guangyu and Huaiwen Janis agreed to sign the contract in the afternoon, and after Li Guangyu finished talking with Huaiwen Janis, he immediately asked Li Xuelan to notify her sister to transfer [-] million US dollars from the group account.
