Chinese Entertainment's Shining Star
Chapter 1048 1148. Untitled
Old Buss passed away, just half an hour before Nie Wei received a call from Jenny. The news is still blocked and the media has not been notified.
This is Jenny inviting Nie Wei to Los Angeles to attend Old Buss's farewell ceremony. After all, Nie Wei is one of the major shareholders of the Lakers, and Old Buss may care most about the Lakers in his life.
Nie Wei accepted Jenny's invitation on the phone.
After hanging up the phone, Nie Wei shrugged helplessly at Shu Chang beside him and said, "Our trip may come to an end. Old Buss passed away. I promised Jenny to go to Los Angeles to attend his funeral."
"That's what I should do." Shu Chang has always been considerate in such serious matters.
In fact, as early as when Nie Wei bought 66% of the shares held by Old Buss and Jenny's brother, Old Buss's health was already bad. At that time, Nie Wei knew that the old man didn't have much time, otherwise he would not have been able to buy the Lakers' shares so smoothly.
However, this time going to Los Angeles to attend Old Buss's funeral was just a side trip. Nie Wei had more important plans.
Nie Wei was ready to sell the remaining 15% of the Lakers shares in his hand.
In mid-August last year, Howard, the happy beast who claimed to be able to trade for James, came to the Lakers, and Nash, the son of the wind, also signed a minimum salary contract with the Lakers. With the addition of Snail and Jiasao, the Lakers seemed to have returned to the luxurious four-star combination of the galaxy battleship in the 03-04 season.
And this time, Snail is more mature, and the beast is younger. Although Nash is old, fans think that Nash is best at passing the ball. Even if he is almost 40 years old, he still has the strength of an All-Star.
Except that Jiasao is still a little soft, all Lakers fans think that the Lakers have more than 80% chance of winning the championship this year.
The Lakers' ball market is also rising straight, and Nie Wei's shares in the Lakers are also very valuable.
Just two months ago, a Chinese-American Huang contacted Nie Wei through Jenny, hoping to buy Nie Wei's shares at a premium.
This made Nie Wei very excited.
The reason why Nie Wei chose to keep 15% of the Lakers' shares was that he hoped to build more connections through his status as a Lakers shareholder. Nie Wei himself was not sad about the Lakers. Since he took over the Lakers' shares, he has watched no more than five Lakers games so far.
In addition, the price offered by the rich man surnamed Huang was indeed very high, so Nie Wei wanted to sell his shares.
Anyway, Nie Wei no longer needs the status of a Lakers shareholder. With Max Films and Los Angeles Times as the foundation, Nie Wei has established his own network of contacts, and the Lakers' shares in his hands have become useless.
Moreover, Nie Wei, who foresees the future, knows very well that the so-called invincible four giants of the Lakers are just an illusion. Happy Warcraft really only plays happy basketball, but unfortunately happy basketball cannot win the game. Nash, the son of the wind, is really old. He can't run and can't be defended. He will become the biggest loophole of the Lakers.
On the contrary, the softer-looking Jiasao is really reliable. Unfortunately, Jiasao was injured just a month ago. I believe that at this moment, Snail can deeply appreciate the good of having Jiasao.
Therefore, before the exaggerated Big Four is completely exposed, Nie Wei should sell the stocks in his hands to maximize the profit.
The other party offered 720 million US dollars for 15% of the shares, which can be regarded as full of sincerity.
You should know that Nie Wei only spent 2 billion US dollars to acquire 66% of the Lakers' shares. The Big Four made the Lakers' market value too high, which is why Nie Wei was eager to sell, because at this moment he was one of the few people who knew how unreliable the Big Four was.
Sell, must sell.
A few days later, after attending the farewell ceremony for the old Buss, Nie Wei met with the rich man Huang under Jenny's arrangement.
"Mr. Nie, nice to meet you."
"Me too." Nie Wei smiled and shook hands with the elegant Huang Fuhao. After the two sat down, Huang Fuhao said to Nie Wei directly: "Mr. Nie, I am a fan of the Lakers, so I also hope to become a part of the Lakers. We have discussed before that we are willing to offer 720 million US dollars to acquire your 15% of the shares. What do you think?"
"Okay." Nie Wei pointed at the table and said directly.
Huang Fuhao was surprised. He didn't expect Nie Wei to sell his shares so happily.
"But I want cash, and I have to pay it all at once." Nie Wei immediately added. When Huang Fuhao heard this condition, his expression of surprise froze and gradually turned into embarrassment.
"Mr. Nie, you should know that 720 million is not a small number. I can pay it off in three years and give you a certain amount of interest every year. What do you think?"
"No, Mr. Huang, if you want my shares, then pay it off at your price in one lump sum. We can sign a share transfer contract at any time."
"If you can't do it, I'm sorry, this transaction ends here."
Nie Wei's unquestionable attitude made Huang Fuhao very embarrassed. Although he was worth nearly 10 billion, it was not easy to take out 720 million at one time. Like most rich people, his net worth was mostly industry and real estate, and the cash he could use was mostly for the company.
Now he couldn't take out such a large sum of money at one time. He could only afford 300 million at most.
But he also didn't want to give up the shares of the Lakers. As he said, he was really a fan of the Lakers. Of course, more importantly, Nie Wei looked down on the identity of this Lakers shareholder, but for Others, such as this rich man Huang, are very important.
"Mr. Nie, I understand your thoughts. Please allow me to think about it for a while."
"No problem, but I will return to China in three days. If you want to buy shares then, you will have to come to China to sign a contract with me." Nie Wei also knew that the 700 million deal could not be negotiated in half an hour. , and the conditions I put forward were so harsh.
"Don't worry, I will give you a reply tomorrow morning." Huang Fuhao replied. After saying that, the two shook hands again, and Huang Fuhao left with his team.
Nie Wei did not leave. After waiting for about five minutes, Jenny came into the conference room.
Nie Wei signaled his team to leave for the time being. After everyone left, Jenny immediately asked Nie Wei: "Why do you want to put forward such harsh conditions, 720 million US dollars? Even if it were Bill, he would not be able to do it for a while." I won’t be able to take it out.”
"Bill can't pay, but that doesn't mean Mr. Huang can't pay. This is my condition." Nie Wei replied calmly.
Jenny was very angry and felt that Nie Wei was trying to embarrass Mr. Huang, but as Nie Wei said, the shares belonged to him, and he could not interfere in selling Jenny no matter how he wanted to, especially since the other party was still his creditor.
"Why do you want me to sell my shares so much?" Nie Wei suddenly asked with a smile.
These words made Jenny's heart tremble, but she pretended to be calm and replied: "I just think you have never loved this team. You just treat the shares in your hands as commodities, so why not sell them when they are valuable?" It's a good price, and I'd rather have the shares in the hands of someone who loves the Lakers."
"A very good reason. Although I know this is not what you really think, I accept it." Nie Wei stood up with a smile and said.
These words made Jenny extremely embarrassed. She wanted to refute, but looking at Nie Wei's dark eyes made Jenny feel that the other person could see through people's hearts, and she couldn't say the words that came to her lips.
At this moment, Jenny felt like a child facing an adult. No matter how she tried to hide it in childish ways, in the eyes of the adults, it was all a joke and everything would be seen through.
“What a nasty guy.” After seeing Nie Wei off, Jenny returned to the office and thought depressedly.
When dealing with Nie Wei, she never took advantage.
And she was really told something by Nie Wei just now. She really doesn't like Nie Wei as a shareholder of the Lakers. The reason is very simple. Nie Wei has too much influence and too much wealth.
She was very afraid that one day Nie Wei would attack and take the Lakers away from her. Although Jenny had absolute equity in the Lakers, she didn't know why, when she was with Nie Wei, she always felt that she would be plotted by him.
In comparison, the rich man Huang was much harmless in Jenny's eyes. He was inferior to Nie Wei in terms of wealth and influence. The most important thing was that Jenny knew what the rich man Huang wanted when he bought the shares, but for Nie Wei, Jenny can’t see through it.
"I hope that rich man Huang won't back down from the battle." Jenny secretly prayed in her heart.
Maybe Jenny's prayers had an effect. Huang Fuhao called Nie Wei the next day, and the two parties started negotiations again. Huang Fuhao proposed to pay in one lump sum, but the price would be reduced from the original 720 million. to 680 million.
Naturally, Nie Wei could not agree to the price difference of 40 million. After an hour of ink-writing between the negotiation teams, Huang Fuhao raised the price to 690 million.
Thirty million was also impossible. Nie Wei still refused and insisted on a price of seventy-two million.
The negotiations all morning were still progressing slowly. After lunch, Huang Fuhao seemed to have exceeded his psychological bottom line and raised the price to 700 million.
"Mr. Nie, how difficult your request is. I believe you understand that if it weren't for my deep love for the Lakers, I would never have agreed to such a condition, because it would even affect our company's liquidity. 700 million is the most sincere price from my heart. As long as you agree, we can even sign the contract now and the money will be transferred to your account immediately," Huang Fuhao said sincerely.
700 million is his final bottom line, and this time he has made up his mind not to break it.
"A million more."
"Deal." Huang Fuhao replied impatiently after hearing Nie Wei's words, completely forgetting the bottom line he had just set for himself.
US$701 million, this is the final value of 15% of Nie Wei's shares.
Including the interest from Jenny, Nie Wei earned at least 600 million U.S. dollars from holding the shares of the Lakers.
The key is that with Huang Fuhao's 700 million cash, Nie Wei can continue to invest in some companies, or use it to develop theaters or invest in movies.
As expected, he said, the richer you are, the easier it is to make money.
At the same time, Nie Wei had this money, which also allowed Nie Wei to aim at a new goal, and his new goal was in Europe.
Just when Nie Wei signed the contract and reached this big deal of 700 million US dollars, far away in China, Lao Dong's family was still worried about the price of vegetables in Kyoto.
"What kind of supermarket is that? It's just a shady store. Cucumbers at our place only cost 80 cents per catty, but here they cost two yuan. Eggplants and potatoes are all expensive, especially garlic. Can you believe that garlic costs more than ten yuan? I almost thought it was gold-plated garlic.”
"The vegetables at the morning market are cheap, but the nearest morning market is two or three kilometers away from here." Luo Kai said.
When Su Fen heard there was a vegetable market, she immediately hurried to where Luo Kai was. While asking her, she said: "Two or three kilometers is nothing. In the past, we had to go to the vegetable garden more than ten kilometers away to buy cheap vegetables. These two or three kilometers are all considered as morning exercises."
"Dong Nini, did you hear that? Remember to go to the vegetable market your uncle Luo mentioned when you buy vegetables in the future. Don't always go to the supermarket for the sake of proximity. Do you understand?"
"Mom, you are old-fashioned. Now my brother-in-law's Fanxing Technology has launched a meal ordering APP. You can order any dish online. When the time comes, someone will come. Delivered to your door, why do I have to go so far to buy food, and I can't cook. "
"If you can't cook, can't you learn? I'll teach you a few dishes in the next two days. What's the point of ordering food? How can people eat takeout? I tell you, all the restaurants outside use gutter oil, and their vegetables are never washed. Anyway, you just buy food and cook for me honestly. I have calculated your living expenses for a month. If you want to order food, you will starve for the rest of the month."
"Why!" Dong Nini shouted dissatisfiedly.
"Because I am your mother." Su Fen's words made sense, and the two men watching on the scene agreed.
A few minutes later, Lao Dong ran to Dong Nini's room on the pretext of looking for his mobile phone, took out 500 yuan from his pocket and handed it to his precious daughter.
"Nini, keep it. Use the money to eat whatever you want. Dad will give you 500 yuan every month."
"Dad, you are the best."
"Shh, keep your voice down, don't let your mother hear."
Just when Lao Dong stuffed money into his daughter's pocket, Luo Kai finally found an opportunity, took out the bank card in his pocket, and put it into Su Fen's hand.
"Brother Luo Kai, what are you doing?" Su Fen was a little confused. She looked at the bank card in her hand and felt that it looked familiar. Then she thought, isn't this the bank card she gave to Lao Dong?
Just when Su Fen didn't understand why Luo Kai returned the bank card to her, Luo Kai had already explained the reason.
