Rebirth

With the combing of information about Polygram and the future of Universal Pictures, Li Feng suddenly realized that it is not worthwhile to spend a huge price to acquire it now. For example, the music albums of later generations are indeed in decline.

Today’s Polygram’s sale price requires tens of billions of dollars. With the rise of the Internet and digital music, the value of record companies is constantly depreciating. If you push yourself behind the scenes this time, it’s still like the historical acquisition of Seagram. However, if you participate in it yourself, such as reaching a future priority acquisition, the value of future acquisitions can be much cheaper.

I explained my thoughts to the two of them, noting that I am actually not optimistic about the future record sales. The rise of digital music is inevitable. Otherwise, why would giants like Siemens and Philips want to sell PolyGram? For such the world's largest record company, in the future, there are only so few records of the kings and queens who may still be able to sell, and most of the rest will be unsalable.

According to Li Feng's idea, he can obtain the coveted Yahoo shares for Siemens and Philips through multiple transactions, and he may directly obtain shares in the parent company of the Seagram Entertainment Division including Universal Pictures.

In addition, I hope to obtain the right of first refusal for the future company. In Li Feng’s view, this is the right model for his future development. Obtaining the shares of Seagram’s entertainment part through Yahoo’s shares will lay the limitless possibilities in the future. A foundation.

......

After all, it is about to enter 99 years, and the next year or so is about to enter the Internet winter. If you don't take advantage of this opportunity to quickly sell Yahoo shares, it will be more time.

Although today's Yahoo has not reached its peak market value, the market value of more than 70 billion US dollars is actually good. After all, it is not easy for such a large number of Yahoo shares to be sold at once.

Of course, I really want to say that the Yahoo shares in Li Feng's hand have not yet reached the lifting period, but Li Feng did not sell Yahoo shares on the stock market. This has almost no effect on Yahoo. It is just a change of shareholders. There should be no major problems through the transaction, of course, this also requires the financial experts under Li Feng to make a detailed plan.

"BOSS, then we will negotiate with Polygram and the global three parties according to this expectation. I think this is a good choice for the three parties. Seagram gets Polygram and establishes their own global Music, Siemens and Philips acquired Yahoo shares, and we became the major shareholders of Global, laying the foundation for our future mergers and acquisitions of Global."

"Yes, that's it, but in this case, I hope you will discuss with the Seagram Group and ask them to reorganize the company, including the original Seagram Beer Company and Universal Entertainment Company, and merge the entertainment parts of Seagram. Join the entertainment company, and we can become a major shareholder of Universal Entertainment."

"OK, we will propose according to the general plan, BOSS, this is not, it happens that the two major shareholders of Polygram are holding a cocktail party. I think as a Seagram company with ambitions for Polygram, I should not let it go. It just so happens that we can chat with others at this reception."

"Well, you call me when the time comes, and I will go around with you."

"understand...!"

"..."

......

"BOSS, let me introduce you to two hosts tonight. This is Mr. Heinrich Pier, Chairman and CEO of Siemens, and this is Kolbunes, Chairman and President of Philips. Mr."

"Oh..., fortunately meeting, both of you, I'm glad to meet you, welcome to Los Angeles!" Li Feng suddenly smiled when he heard Barry Diller help him introduce the two in front of him.

"Barry, you are so kind!"

"Mr. Li, hello, admiring your name for a long time!"

"..."

At this time, it is already in the Hilton Hotel two days later, and a cocktail party jointly organized by Siemens and Philips is being held.

"Pierre and Boones, since you started to sell PolyGram last year, it should be almost the same now. It is difficult to change the shares of Yahoo. You are also very interested. But to be honest, according to the current stock price and market value of Yahoo and its future potential, we are losing a lot.

But after all, PolyGram is related to the future layout of our Tianyu Media. This time Mr. Li personally participated in the reception and hopes to get in touch with the two. Our BOSS has a new proposal. Maybe you can consider it."

After the two parties found a place to sit down, Barry Diller, on behalf of Li Feng, proposed to two business leaders from Europe.

"Oh..., does Mr. Li have any good suggestions?"

"Now Polygram's situation has been basically determined. The two companies, Tianyu Media and Seagram, are the most eager, but we feel that instead of dragging it on like this, it is better for us to cooperate with the three parties."

"Tripartite cooperation?"

Looking at the two big men who were surprised, obviously, they were surprised by Barry Diller's proposal.

......

"Yes, it is a tripartite cooperation. We provide shares of Yahoo, while Siemens and Philips provide Polygram, while Seagram merges Polygram to establish the Universal Music company they want."

"Hi... Barry, what else can you get, cash?"

"Haha..., I think you should be clear that this share belongs to our BOSS, and our BOSS is not short of cash. He wants shares in the newly established Universal Entertainment Division, which means we can merge into Universal Entertainment at a discount. The new company becomes a shareholder."

"To be honest, Barry, Mr. Lee, I am very interested in your proposal, but I think we can call the people from Seagram, and then we can discuss a specific plan. How about?"

"Of course, this is a tripartite cooperation plan after all. Naturally, you need to contact others to try it out. I think this is an acceptable proposal for the three parties, and it can effectively meet the needs of the three parties."

"OK, I'm also looking forward to this. Let's do it for the time being. It's not the time to talk about business. I hope that Mr. Li and Barry will have a pleasant and wonderful evening tonight." Siemens president at this time Pierton smiled and interrupted the conversation between Li Feng and Philips President Cole Burns and said jokingly.

"Is that right? I look forward to our next meeting. Believe me, we have come with sincerity and hope that there will be further opportunities for cooperation in the future."

"Of course, this is what we want to see. I heard that Mr. Li has a general Chinese ancestry and has a Chinese name called'Li Feng'. What a coincidence, I have been responsible for Siemens China and Asia Pacific business a few years ago. I also have a Chinese name called'Feng Bi Le'."

"Feng Bile?"

"..."

......

"Yes, Feng Bile!"

"Hehe..., does Mr. Pierre know the meaning of "Feng Bile" in the words?"

"Hehe..., of course, it is precisely because I understand the meaning that I took it deliberately, which implies a positive attitude towards life."

The Siemens boss suddenly said a sentence in slurred Chinese, causing Li Feng to shake his head and laugh.

"Haha..., Pier, let's speak in English. Didn't you see Cole and Barry all looking confused?"

"Really, that's a shame!"

"Mr. Lee, what are you talking about to Pierre, so funny?"

"Oh, nothing."

"Wow... Pierce, do you want to keep it secret?"

"Haha..."

"..."

After a while of jokes, the relationship between the two parties became more natural and close. After a while, there was no name, Mr. or so, and they all began to match their names, and they looked very familiar.
