Reborn Cultural Empire

Yang Yi thought for a while, and thought that the other party was willing to give up decision-making and voting rights, and even not even send observers. This condition can indeed be considered. Although the current Yangyi Culture is really not too bad, but More funds means more possibilities for development.

At least in Yang Yi's plan, apart from taking advantage of the full-scale outbreak of online games in the domestic market in a year's time, he can take advantage of the opportunity to make a fortune, and there are no very good historical opportunities left.The current layout of Yangyi Culture is mostly traditional, and there is still a lack of commercialization. In the future, besides games, the most profitable and most influential film and television industry, he lacks sufficient funds to intervene.

And once with this sum of 2000 million US dollars of funds, Yangyi Culture can set foot in more cultural industry markets, start more profit-making methods, and enjoy... at least a little bit of indulgence, let go of your hands and feet, go to Sketch the embryonic form of a cultural empire as you like.Entering the film industry, gathering more publishing houses to integrate into a group, or grabbing the biggest cake in the coming era of online games, no matter what you do, you can do it with ease.

Therefore, if the other party can still satisfy his last request, it is not impossible to overthrow the strategy of never accepting investment. After all, this kind of investment is different from investment in the usual sense, and the control of Yangyi Culture will not cause much damage. Influence.So after the consideration was made, he looked up at Stephen who was waiting for the result: "Joining ihg can satisfy my last condition, which is also the most important condition, so I think. I will make an exception and accept the investment from ihg."

Hearing that Yang Yi gave it away, the foreigner was also excited.However, he has experienced a lot of investment negotiations, and he is very clear before the other party's conditions are stated.Any intention is just a wonderful soap bubble, which cannot withstand drastic changes in the external environment, so after nodding, his expression became serious: "Mr. Yang Yi, please tell me."

"Even if our Yangyi Culture accepts investment, we will never go public, no matter in the future or in the infinite future."

"What?" It seemed that Yang Yihui did not expect such a request, and it was almost a direct refusal of their investment intention, given Stephen's sophistication.I can't help subconsciously asking back, wanting to know if I've heard it before, or if there's something wrong with what the other party said by mistake.

In this world, there may be truly selfless and good people, but they never exist in the group of capitalists. If it is not for the benefits brought by those investments, how can there be such a thing as a fund?As an objective existence of exchanging early investment for later return, all venture capital funds have only one purpose when they take out funds—that is, to get back the money ten times and a hundred times later.

As for how to get it back.Listing of invested companies is the best choice, not one of them.

ihg is willing to spend 2000 million US dollars this time, which is close to 5000 million RMB, to invest in Yangyi Culture.Naturally, they are also interested in the huge expected income in the future, and going public is the best way to realize this income.As a result, the other party said now.Yangyi Culture will not be listed, and their ihg cannot make any demands on Yangyi Culture in this regard.This is undoubtedly equivalent to telling him that your investment may be profitable, but it will definitely not be realized in just two or three years.

What is the current market value of Yangyi Culture?It may only look like more than 3000 million US dollars.Nearly two-thirds of the company's market value is invested, but the investment will eventually be recovered and the return will be enjoyed, but it will take five, ten or more years. This is undoubtedly an unacceptable condition for ihg.

So after taking a deep breath and trying to calm down his inner embarrassment, Stephen couldn't help but asked Yang Yizhengyan: "Can't go public? So when can we get back the more than 2000 million US dollars we invested in ihg?" , Mr. Yang Yi, can you answer me?"

"It may be three years, or it may be five years, but in short, it will not be too long. Maybe many people think that there is no need to invest in companies that are not listed, but in fact this view is obviously not the truth. If we Yangyi Culture If the operation is in good condition, then ihg can get about 600 million in terms of share income every year, and with the official launch of our company's various businesses, this number will only continue to increase without any decrease."

"But even if it is a share income of 1000 million yuan a year, it will take us 15 years for ihg to recover the cost." Stephen couldn't help interrupting the other party, not because he didn't understand the most basic business etiquette, but because he heard Yang After Yi's suggestion, the anger in my heart was really unbearable.

He couldn't help but began to speculate about the boy in front of him, wondering whether he regarded this contact as an after-work adjustment, whether he was actually planning to accept IHG's investment, or whether he had made achievements that were obviously inconsistent with his age. But the guy who loves whimsy every now and then?Stephen now suddenly felt that the fat man on the opposite side was better, but the other boy who owned a promising family and said the astonishing words just now in front of himself as an investor was indeed something he couldn't see through .

"I'm just a proposal, and I don't think ihg will accept my condition." Seeing the other party's uncontrollable annoyance, Yang Yi couldn't help laughing in his heart, secretly thinking about killing all parties in the capital market Many successful people are actually aroused by him to a rare anger, which shows that his ability to ridicule and hate has improved again.But he smiled in his heart, on the surface he still wanted to clarify his meaning, so as not to be treated as a psychopath and a lunatic: "Actually, in the final analysis, I made this condition just because of luck. The investment is determined to win..."

"Okay, you've made a good judgment on this point. After getting the support of most of the partners on the fund's board of directors, our CEO, Mr., told us before leaving that we must win this investment. But This doesn't mean that I, the negotiator in charge, will agree to such a ridiculous request." Stephen obviously has endless resentment towards Yang Yi's mention of not going public, and he can't help but bring it up again and again until now.

Seeing the annoyed look on the other side, Yang Yi shook his head in a good mood: "But the problem is, this is also one of the necessary conditions for me to accept ihg's investment. If you can't agree, then I can only express my gratitude to you for your visit. Sorry, if there are other aspects of cooperation other than investment in the future, then we can sit down and talk."

After taking a deep breath, Stephen could already see that although the boy on the opposite side said the above words with a smile on his face, it was obvious that he did not accept his own investment. .

Now that the matter has come to an end, the person in charge of the investment department of ihg, even though he is depressed, still can't help but try his best to try to convince the young man in front of him: "Well, don't you two really think about it? Is it? In fact, I think you can also see the sincerity of our ihg from the three different investment plans before and after. If you are not willing to give up the control of Yangyi Culture, then Yangyi Network is also possible.”

"Also require independent packaging, and then go on the market?" Yang Yi asked.

Hearing the boy's question, Stephen fully understood the bottom line of the other party, not just a means of bargaining: "Then, I think I have understood the requirements of the two of you. It is a pity that we cannot further cooperate with Yangyi Culture. If Yihu has the opportunity, hopefully it won’t be like today.”

As for what Martin explained in advance, if there is no way to invest in Yangyi Culture, then it is necessary to find the request of the person who came up with the idea of ​​a navigation, not to put it into practice. He didn't even mention it at all—— The person who came up with this idea and made it into an Internet product to promote it was none other than Yang Yi, the hard-headed person who gave him a headache.It's just that the company founded by the other party has no way to get involved in it, let alone him himself.

Therefore, after saying goodbye to Yang Yi and Rogo in a superficially friendly manner, Stephen was quite annoyed and angry when reporting to the company headquarters. He wants to get a huge amount of investment, but he is unwilling to pay the slightest price: "It's really a contemptible existence. I dare say that the relationship between that kid's business IQ and his EQ is simply inversely proportional. Martin, you know he brought it up." What request? On the basis of the last investment plan, you must agree to their request that Yangyi Culture never go public? Fake!"

Yang Yi didn't know what Stephen would think of him when he was behind his back, so he said that he valued IHG very much, but he didn't even have the courage to take the risk, so he also sneered: "To be honest, if it weren't for me, I still have There are many projects that can be invested, but they are just short of money. I will not agree with their investment plan at all. Do you think that we are the lions who have spent two-thirds of the market value of the investment and cannot be listed? If they wait until the end of next year, they will definitely not so."

At the end of next year, the "Legend", which was popular in the north and south of China in the previous life, and has been continuously popular for more than ten years, will be officially registered in China. Boys dare to guarantee their happiness after rebirth. After reading the financial report of Yangyi Culture in the first quarter of 2002, the investors of ihg decided to regret it till night.
