Vcd sales are booming in major shopping malls.
5,000 units were sold in 10 days, and this was only in Hong Kong City. Dilu sent a sales team to start distribution throughout Asia, and at the same time asked the factory to speed up work.
It can be said that vcd has definitely become the most eye-catching product this year.
After eating and clothing, the greatest pursuit of human beings is entertainment. VCDs can listen to songs, watch movies, and sing karaoke, which can meet the needs of different groups of people. The family can enjoy playing together.
Naturally, sales are booming.
The hot sale of vcd has naturally attracted the attention of other major electrical appliance manufacturers. Many major electrical appliance manufacturers, such as cherry blossom Sony, Hitachi, and beauty best buy, also have the production and sales of video recorders. Because of the appearance of vcd, their video recorder business is booming The magnitude has shrunk.
In the headquarters building of a certain Ni Group in Japan, in the vice president's office, an old man in his sixties is listening to a middle-aged subordinate's report.
"Vice President, it has been investigated clearly. The vcd manufacturer is Lianying Electric Appliance Company, a subsidiary of Lianying Group Company in Hong Kong City. Several founders of this company are members of the Triad Society in Hong Kong City. The current chairman is named Zhang Xiaoshan is a well-known gang member in Hong Kong City."
"Lianying Group is involved in the four fields of hotel, entertainment, electrical manufacturing, and security. The total assets are about 3 billion Hong Kong dollars. In addition, the chairman Zhang Xiaoshan also independently owns an investment company with assets of about 3.5 billion Hong Kong dollars."
"Zhang Xiaoshan went to the United States to participate in a broadcasting exhibition some time ago and bought this technology. After returning, Lianying Electric Appliance Research Institute developed VCD. Now Lianying Group has the patent of 'video decompression' technology and all patents of VCD."
The old man tapped the table with his fingers regularly, "People from Hong Kong City, members of gangs, own all patents."
"How is the sales of vcds now?" the old man asked.
"About 40,000 units were sold last month, and it is estimated that there will be more this month. Their sales methods are very powerful and have attracted many young people." The middle-aged subordinate said.
"How do you analyze the prospects of the VCD player?"
"The prospect is very good. It is estimated that Sakura Grasshopper can sell about one million units per year, and about ten million units in Asia. If it enters Europe and the United States, it is estimated that this number will double."
"And because of this, it can also drive the CD business. The songs and movies in our company's hands before can be re-produced and sold. We estimate that the profit of this item is no less than the profit of VCD player sales, or even greater."
"If VCD players and CDs are all counted, it should be able to reach a sales market of about 1.5 to 2 billion U.S. dollars per year."
"1.5 to 2 billion, find a way to buy that electrical appliance company." The old man said.
The middle-aged subordinate paused, "President, I'm afraid it will be difficult. After all, with such a good market prospect, Lianying Group will not sell it easily."
"Then find a way!"
…
This kind of dialogue didn't just happen within this company, many big groups were eyeing the VCD business of Lianying Group.
In the office of the chairman of Lianying Group, after reading the sales report, Di Lu picked up a cigar and lit it, when the phone rang.
"Dilu, I'm Lao Chen. In the past few days, many big companies have sent people to visit our company. Some of them are here to seek sales cooperation, and some are planning to buy shares or acquire electrical appliances companies under the group."
"Who would buy our company?" Di Lu asked with interest.
"Sony from Cherry Blossom, Panasonic, Toshiba, Best Buy from Beautiful Grasshopper, and two investment companies want to invest in us, Goldman Sachs and Softbank. We have discussed these before, so I will receive them in advance, but they all want to see you very much. Talk face to face."
"Did they make an offer?"
"No, it's just an intention. As for the price, I'm afraid it won't be announced until I see you."
Whether to sell it or not, and how to sell it, is a big question.
Compared with Di Lu, he is planning to introduce investment. After all, the group's strength is limited. VCD is not only a problem of selling machines, but also involves the issue of film and television copyright and distribution. If you want VCD to continue to sell well, you need more Sales channels, purchase more song and film copyrights, and make them into CDs, so that the entire ecological chain can be built.
And this part of resources is in the hands of large companies, which may involve the whole world, and it is simply not something that a small emerging company in Hong Kong City can handle.
"In this way, according to the countermeasures discussed by the board of directors in advance, you send a circular in the name of the company, and we are going to hold a small meeting. Anyone who is interested in purchasing the shares of Lianying Electric Co., Ltd. can attend. Of course, you have to choose After a while, small companies will not come here, and only those big groups with strength will be invited."
On the same day, several directors of Dilu Group held another conference call to unify their thinking, and Dilu was fully in charge of the meeting.
Three days later, at the Peninsula Hotel in Hong Kong City, this time in the small conference room on the 10th floor, more than a dozen business representatives came to participate in the meeting.
As soon as Di Lu came out, he attracted everyone's attention. Although people had already understood his situation, they still couldn't believe it when they saw such a young man in person. In a short period of time, a remarkable company has developed.
Dilu sat down, glanced around and said: "Everyone, I think the purpose of everyone coming here is basically the same. Now that VCD is developing rapidly, it will definitely replace the original video recorder market, and CDs will also replace old-fashioned video tapes. This market is Huge, the market size can reach $20 billion.”
Hearing what Dilu said, many people frowned, because Dilu saw it very clearly, so for them, the price would definitely exceed expectations.
"So I think $120 million per 5% share is a reasonable price for the electric company's share price."
"Oh my God, he's crazy."
"How is this possible, you think your company is worth $2.4 billion, it's ridiculous asking price."
"He must be crazy about money."
Everyone shouted and made all kinds of ridicule, but Di Lu was unmoved, "Everyone, you are the ones who want to buy shares in my company. If you didn't see his value, would you come here?"
"We can do a simple calculation. Only counting Asia, I estimate that it can reach 10 million units per year, and how many countries in the world can sell each year? 30 million or 50 million units?"
"There is also the optical disc market. Basically, the sales volume is equal to that of VCD machines. Moreover, this is a long-term business with a broader market prospect."
"If calculated in this way, the annual market will be billions, and the profits will be hundreds of millions. Everyone, let's see if my stock price is still high now."
Dilu said with a smile.
The representative of Best Buy shook his head and said: "No, the price is definitely not calculated in this way. Your data is only an estimate of the future. Who knows what the sales volume will be in the future. Global sales are 30 million to 50 million a year. You know this is What an unattainable number."
Best Buy is now the largest seller of home appliances and electronics in the United States, and in a few years will become the largest in the world, and they have a say in this regard.
Sony's representative went on to say: "You just mentioned the CD business. You should know that the copyrights of those songs and movies are now in the hands of companies like ours, but not yours."
His point is self-explanatory, if we don't sell you the copyright, what you say is useless.
Di Lu's asking price of 2.5 billion for his company is indeed a bluff, but that's how business is, who doesn't want to sell at a high price, asking for a price and paying back the money is the basic means of all businessmen.
Today is just the first meeting. The two sides first expressed their attitude. Dilu intends to sell, while the other party intends to buy. As for the price, that will be a matter later, and it may be a long negotiation process.
After the group meeting, several companies met individually with Dilu. For example, Goldman Sachs wanted to buy 30% of the shares of the electrical company and offered 120 million US dollars. Softbank also sent people and offered 170 million US dollars to buy 40%. Sony The highest bid, bid 350 million U.S. dollars, want to buy electrical companies and all patents.
Naturally, Di Lu would not agree to such an offer. He thought the other party's offer was too low, and he could earn this amount of money in a few years by doing it himself.
Dilu also showed his bottom line to these companies. 51% of the electrical company's shares must be held in the hands of Lianying Group. It can barely supply the whole of Asia.
The general direction has been determined, and the rest of the wrangling and negotiation, Di Lu handed over to Wang Defa, the general manager of the investment company, and Chen Ge.
In the office of a certain Ni group company.
"Hmph, a small gangster spent 1 million US dollars and was lucky enough to invest in a technology. Now he can exchange for hundreds of millions of dollars. The income of hundreds of times is not enough. How greedy." The old man said coldly.
"How are the sales of VCDs now?"
The middle-aged subordinate Xiahui reported: "VCD sales are still very good during this period. According to estimates, the monthly sales in Asia can reach 600,000 units. If they expand to the whole world, this number may increase by five times."
"The sales of VCDs have greatly affected the sales of our video recorders. We used to sell about 100,000 units per month, but now they have more than doubled."
"Has the technical department cracked the vcd machine? Can we produce it ourselves?" the old man asked.
"Yes, it has been cracked. In fact, it is not complicated. It is mainly a decoding chip. Others are components on the market. The biggest problem now is the patent. If we produce it, the other party will definitely go to court. We are sure will lose the case and pay a huge sum of damages."
"Can't the patent be bypassed?"
"Technical personnel and patent personnel have analyzed it, and there is no way around it."
"What a jerk",
The old man cursed softly, "How can I get his patent here?"
The middle-aged subordinate bent down, lowered his voice a little and said, "I asked the lawyer, the first is to buy a patent, and the second is,"
The middle-aged man paused for a while, and then said: "The second is the death of the patent owner. Now the patent holders are in the hands of five shareholders of Lianying Group, and Zhang Xiaoshan holds 55%."
The old man looked out of the window with a cold light in his eyes, "Then let Zhang Xiaoshan die, and the remaining shareholders will know how powerful it is."
"But this will break the default rule that all forces abide by and cannot assassinate important personnel of the other party. Do you really want to do this?" the middle-aged man asked.
The old man stared at the middle-aged man, and said slowly: "He is a gangster, and he is not a member of any big company. If you ask the local gangsters in Hong Kong City to kill him, no one will hold him accountable."
"Yes, Your Excellency the Vice President!"
...
A flower shop opened on Canton Road, Tsim Sha Tsui, and many guests were surrounded by drums and gongs at the door.
Dilu took his elder brother and Xiao Jieba to thank the people around him, lit the firecrackers with incense, and the sound of the cannons sounded, the lion dance team jumped out, and the whole scene was very lively.
This flower shop is not small, the proprietresses are Adi and Xiaojieba, and the four women in Dilu are not the kind of people who can live at home leisurely.
Yao Yao and Liang Xiaorou had already left the police force. No matter what kind of relationship Di Lu had with the police force, it was impossible for a woman with a husband from an association to continue working as a police officer. The two little girls are now studying business administration courses, and they agreed only after Dilu persuaded them. After all, such a large family business requires two trusted people to guard it.
For making money from women, Dilu enjoys life and has experienced two worlds. Dilu is already very experienced in this set of operations.
Adi and Xiao Jieba didn't want to listen to Dilu's advice and went to continue their studies. Instead, they wanted to open a flower shop.
Although they are seven months pregnant, the two little girls are still busy with their big bellies.
After the ribbon-cutting, Di Lu said to the two little girls, "You guys go into the store first, there are so many people outside, it's not good to bump into each other, Brother Chen and I are waiting outside for Sister Hua and Sha Qiang."
Xiao Jieba and brother happily entered the flower shop.
Looking at the two pregnant women, Han Chen said enviously, "Di Lu, you are lucky. Three of the four women have given birth to you. Your Zhang family has a child."
"Brother Chen, you are not very old. If you find a few women, you can still have a baby. You can't always think about your sister-in-law. I believe that your sister-in-law is down there. I also hope that Brother Chen can get married again and have children." Di Lu said with emotion.
Before Han Chen answered, Di Lu saw Shaqiang's car coming and was about to go up to meet him.
At this time, a white van suddenly flashed out from behind Shaqiang's car.
The bodyguard captain next to Di Lu stood in front of him. Before he could speak, two AK rifles stretched out from the white van and fired continuously in the direction of Di Lu.
Suddenly, gunshots pierced the air on the long street, and the street was in chaos, surrounded by running and howling pedestrians and guests.
The captain of the bodyguard was shot three times in a row, and Di Lu was also staggered by the captain of the bodyguard, and fell to the ground.
"Protect the boss!" Two bodyguards stood in front of Di Lu again, and one of them was also shot.
The rest of the bodyguards also quickly drew out their pistols and started firing back at the van.
Boom-boom...
Boom-boom...
The two sides exchanged hundreds of bullets, and the killer in the van saw that the best opportunity had been missed, so he drove away quickly.
The entire assassination process was only a short ten seconds.
"Boss, it's all right, the killer has already escaped." A bodyguard helped Di Lu up.
With a sullen face, Di Lu looked at the captain of the bodyguard's eyes, and another injured bodyguard lay on the ground uncertain of life or death, and the anger rose in his heart.
The captain of the bodyguard is a security soldier who has been specially applied by Dilu to the Dongguang government and has defended senior leaders. From Dalu's perspective, Dilu invested more than a billion Hong Kong dollars in one go with the foreign exchange that is in short supply in the country, and it is specially allocated to Dilu's personal guards.
An hour later, in the meeting room of the Lianying Group, Dilu's friends and younger brother leaders gathered together, the door opened, Dilu walked in with a dark face, and said angrily:
"Everyone, the police have taken over the scene. The killer's vehicle has been found. From the blood on the vehicle, it can be judged that at least one killer was shot, and the killer responded. It should be someone on the road who helped the killer.
Brother Chen, you have a wide relationship. Send messages to fellow Jianghu, whoever provides information on the killer, I will give a bonus of 5 million Hong Kong dollars, and whoever provides information on the employer behind the killer will get a bonus of 20 million Hong Kong dollars. "
"Okay, I'll do it right away!" Han Chen said.
Sha Qiang shouted: "I'm going to call the brothers from the United British Press to find out who is behind the scenes, and I will peel off his skin."
Brother Chen looked at Di Lu and asked suspiciously, "Is this related to the VCD patent?"
"Don't think about it, it must be one of those companies who messed up." Sister Hua said.
"Okay, I, Dilu, thank you all here, no matter who it is, I want him to pay with blood!"
As the rewards and bonuses offered by the United British Press spread to various associations in Hong Kong City, the young and Dangerous people in the entire Hong Kong City became a sensation. Bonus club people.
At night, a man with a hat came over with a satchel on his back. Looking around, no one noticed, he stepped into a dark alley next to him. Not long after, another man appeared, and the two met in the alley.
"Ayun, how are things going?"
The man patted his purse, "Brother Feng, everything is done, board the boat at 2:00 in the morning, Brother Kun gave 200,000, how is Ah Cai?"
The man on the opposite side took the bag, opened it for a brief inspection, and quickly pulled it back together: "Okay, Ah Cai is undergoing surgery in the clinic."
After finishing speaking, he put his satchel on his back and waved his hand, and was about to leave, but at this moment, a sudden change occurred, and a group of people walked in from both ends of the alley, blocking the two of them in the middle.
The two of them were taken aback by this change. Knowing that something was wrong, they already put their hands on the guns at their waists.
The guy named Ah Yun pretended to be calm, put on a smile and said, "I'm sorry, big brothers, I didn't know you were going to work here, we'll leave immediately."
As he said that, he bit the bullet and walked forward.
"Wow~"
A large piece of white lime fell, and the two were immediately fascinated.
Before the two of them took out their pistols, another seven or eight crossbow bolts hit their hands and feet.
"Ah~"
The two guys fell to the ground screaming.
Dongxing smiled, looked at the two guys, and said aloud: "Haha, brothers have a chance to make a fortune. Say hello to your two friends. Whether it's five million or twenty million depends on whether their mouths are enough." hard."
Following the Laughing Tiger's order, the little brother behind him immediately rushed out, surrounded the two guys in an instant, searched for their pistols, and started punching and kicking, the two guys screamed again and again.
Several younger brothers grabbed the two men by their hair and dragged them to the smiling tiger. At this moment, their faces were swollen and bruised, and there were bloodstains at the corners of their mouths.
"Say, who ordered you?" Smiling Tiger asked.
Ah Yun lowered his head, shivering all over his body, Brother Feng stared coldly at the smiling tiger, and spit at him, "Haha, our brothers do this business..."
Smiling Tiger didn't wait for him to finish, he slapped him in the face with a stick, and said, "Keep beating until they reveal the mastermind behind the scenes."
The younger brothers on both sides began to torture the two killers again.
"Ah..." The shrill scream echoed in the alley.
The two of them were just killers, not tough fighters, and they confessed within five minutes. Ah Yun said, "Hong Xing Liangkun ordered us."
"Who else is behind Liang Kun?"
"We are only paid to work, how can we tell us what happened behind the scenes?" another said.
Smiling Tiger sneered coldly, and said to the younger brothers: "Give the two Gods of Wealth a good bandage, don't send them to the local people and die, and by the way, take the one who was shot in the clinic with you, these are evidences."
"Brother, the one inside is undergoing surgery, so I don't think he can last." A younger brother said.
"Hey, it's okay. It's okay if there is a body that was shot. Dilu can find someone to verify whether it's the bodyguard's gun. Let's go for the unlucky one who got shot!"
…
Inside the cc bar in Tsim Sha Tsui, Dilu was smoking a cigarette, silently waiting for the news.
Boom, the door of the bar opened, Han Chen walked in, and said to Di Lu:
"Dilu~www.readwn.com~ The killer was caught by Smiley Tiger in a black clinic, and one died. The bullets on his body were also verified by a gunsmith. It was your bodyguard who shot him."
"Who is the mastermind behind it?" Di Lu's eyes were cold.
Han Chen frowned and said, "It's Liangkun, but there is no news about who is behind Liangkun."
At this time, the door of the bar hall was pushed open again, Sha Qiang walked in with a person,
To Dilu's surprise, this person turned out to be Liangkun's champion named Ah Yi.
Ah Yi came to Di Lu and said, "Brother Di Lu, I came today because I have a piece of news that I want to sell to you."
Di Lu sneered, "Is the news you sold me the news that Liang Kun asked someone to kill me?"
Ah Yi shook his head, "I don't plan to hang out in the club anymore. The underworld doesn't end well. I'm going to go abroad after I get the bonus. Brother Dilu, I know you have a reputation for keeping your word."
Unexpectedly, he still had such a reputation, Di Lu asked, "Then what news are you going to sell me?"
"Brother Dilu, I know that Liangkun wants to kill you, but this matter is not only about Liangkun, there is someone behind him, and this person found the mastermind behind Liangkun. I want to do a good job now and need money. I I don't want to get 20 million, 5 million bonus is enough for me for a lifetime."
"No, I agreed to say 20 million, and I'll definitely give you a lot of money. Who is it?" Di Lu said coldly.
"It's Ryosuke Yamada from the Sakura Grassroots Yamaguchi group. He and Liang Kun are good friends. A few days ago, Ryosuke Yamada suddenly found Liang Kun and said that Sakura Grasshopper's Sony company wanted Dilu's life. Ryosuke Yamada I gave Liangkun 10 million Hong Kong dollars, and let Liangkun come forward to find the killer." Ah Yi said.
Di Lu's eyes became more and more stern,
Liang Kun! !
