Rebirth of Hong Kong - 1978

After realizing that he had finished asking, Arisawa Asai suddenly showed a surprised expression on his face. Lin Daoqiu could probably guess that the other party must have misunderstood what he meant.

In fact, what Lin Daoqiu said just now were just polite words. After all, it is impossible for him to tell Arisawa Asai directly how much you plan to sell for "News Daily", just ask for a price. As for where you should go, it is up to you. Where to go, I'm not interested in receiving you.

Even if Lin Daoqiu really had such an idea, he couldn't say it in front of Asai Arisawa. Neon people like to speak in euphemistic and vague terms, and words that are too direct will make them feel very abrupt.

As for Lin Daoqiu's sudden statement that he wanted to recruit him, Arisawa Asai was quite surprised, but after thinking about it, Arisawa Asai shook his head quickly.

"Mr. Lin is too polite. As far as I know, you have Mr. Takahashi and Mr. Guqiao under your command. Even if I pass by, I can't help you. Let's forget about it."

Arisawa Asai is very aware of how much money he has, and if he sells the "News Daily" to Lin Daoqiu, with such a large sum of money, Arisawa Asai no longer intends to continue working, and he plans to use the money Enjoy the rest of your life.

Let others do the work, after all, his "News Daily" no longer exists, and Arisawa Asai is obviously not a person who is willing to work for others.

"Since this is Mr. Asai's intention, of course I completely obey it."

Lin Daoqiu was just being polite, and Arisawa Asai immediately recalled it when he heard it.

The two of them fought and walked, and the topic of conversation naturally revolved around the "News Daily" transaction, but it was not very obvious.

However, Arisawa Asai was most concerned about not only the price of the newspaper, but also the placement of those employees.

"I want to know if Mr. Lin bought the "News Daily", how do you plan to arrange the original employees?"

This is what Arisawa Asai is most concerned about now. After all, some of those employees are old employees who already existed when "News Daily" was founded. If they lose their jobs because of this acquisition, Arisawa Asai definitely doesn't want it. do not want to see.

"Mr. Asai, do you think I should do better?"

Lin Daoqiu asked with a smile.

Asai Arizawa looked at Lin Daoqiu with a serious face, and then replied.

"Mr. Lin, some of these employees have worked in "News Daily" since its inception. They have very rich experience in the newspaper industry, and if "Readers Times" wants to take root in Neon, it will naturally need The help of such excellent people, so I hope you can let them continue to work in the newspaper."

Asai Arisawa looked at Lin Daoqiu sincerely, this was his request and entreaty to Lin Daoqiu.

It should be known that after the conclusion of the transaction in this kind of acquisition, the buyer will have a certain degree of layoffs, depending on the extent of the layoffs.

Asai Arisawa naturally didn't want too many employees to be laid off. If it was best, he hoped that Lin Daoqiu could keep all the staff of "News Daily".

Of course, this idea is simply an extravagant hope. If he were to acquire a newspaper or company, he would definitely make some adjustments in personnel, which is unavoidable.

"If I remember correctly, including the Osaka branch, the total staff of "News Daily" is 59 people, right?"

Arisawa Asai nodded. He was not surprised that Lin Daoqiu knew so much about "News Daily", because Lin Daoqiu, as the buyer, would definitely have done some research on "News Daily" before the transaction.

But Arisawa Asai is concerned about what Lin Daoqiu's decision is. If it is only a small layoff, Arisawa Asai can still accept it. After all, the other party can't accept all of it.

However, if the layoffs are too large, Arisawa Asai may not be able to accept them. Negotiations must be carried out to ensure the future life of those laid off employees, even if it is better to give more compensation.

"If they can prove their ability, then I will continue to let them stay in "Reader Times", but if their ability is not enough to stay, then I'm afraid I can only let them go."

Lin Daoqiu's words did not give Arisawa Asai any promises, because how to judge the abilities of these people, the right to judge is all in Lin Daoqiu's hands. Inappropriate, there is no clear standard for judging.

Asai Arisawa thought that Lin Daoqiu was really a businessman, and he considered the problem from the perspective of a businessman, but he didn't have anything to complain about the other party, because this is the common sense of the capital market, whether to keep those things How many people stay depends on Lin Daoqiu's personal will.

"But if I can't even guarantee their jobs, I'm afraid it will be difficult for me to proceed with this deal."

Since Asai Arisawa wanted to protect the interests of the staff of "News Daily", he had to make a stronger statement in this regard, so as to change Lin Daoqiu's attitude and make him make a promise.

"Before meeting with you, I sent someone to do a simple pre-investigation on "News Daily". I believe that you should know more about the current situation of "News Daily" than me."

The benefits and income of "News Daily" have been declining year by year, and Asai Arizawa is naturally more aware of this than Lin Daoqiu.

If it weren't for the fact that "News Daily" had no future in his hands, Arisawa Asai would not have considered or planned to sell this newspaper.

"You are right, but this is only temporary. At least so far, "News Daily" is still profitable. Although the profit is not a lot, compared with other peers, our situation is still very good."

Naturally, Asai Arisawa would not show the negative information of "News Daily", and what he said was not a lie.

If compared with other newspapers, the situation of "News Daily" is indeed at the upper-middle level, and those that are worse than "News Daily" are either operating in a miserable state or have closed down, but this does not mean that What a bright future for Newsday.

"I believe you know more about the facts than I do. We don't need to argue about this matter. This is the price I offered to News Daily. You can think about it."

Lin Daoqiu took a piece of paper from Fang Jinsheng, and handed it to Arisawa Asai.

Asai Arisawa took a serious look at the quotation that Lin Daoqiu handed over, and then his eyes began to widen slightly, as if he saw something that shocked him.

"The price is too..."
