Chapter 776: Success in sight

Doing things in the United States sometimes can be delayed for a year and a half, sometimes it can be very efficient.

For example, in the financial industry, the emphasis is on timeliness. Sometimes, not to mention one day, one hour can change dramatically, so they especially like high efficiency.

Goldman Sachs and Yin Jun's sales negotiations have been almost three weeks from the 10th to the present. In addition to the negotiations between Yin Jun and them in the previous ten days, their opponents then became Le Yiling.

Le Yiling gave full play to her woman's strengths, arrogance, stinginess, prudence, detailing ... These character traits put together, making Goldman Sachs's Krautti and Lee White big.

Of course, it is not that they have no way to take Le Yiling. It is really that Le Yiling belongs to the kind of "no desire is just". She doesn't like the expensive Disney company that is not easy to manage, so no matter how threatening and Asking for soft words doesn't help her much.

Only by writing more about the price, it is possible to promote good business.

Talking about the price, can Le Yiling lose to them when the relationship is equal or even slightly higher?

After several days of intense negotiations, everyone finally arrived at a more suitable price.

Yin Jun entrusted Goldman Sachs to purchase Lianyi Film Company and Disney Company at a price of US $ 2.8 billion. Kirin Group did not pay Goldman Sachs additional compensation.

On the day of signing the entrusted purchase contract, Yin Jun paid the first USD 1 billion deposit.

The second $ 1 billion was paid after the two companies transferred to Yin Jun ’s name.

The last 800 million will be settled within six months of paying the second sum.

This price is not cheap at first glance, which is only a narrowing of the gap of 200 million US dollars compared with the negotiations between Yin Jun and Koloti.

What's more, Lianyi Film Company's account has no money. After Yin Jun bought it, he immediately had to pay an operating sum of up to 170 million US dollars, otherwise Lianyi Film Company's score would fall apart.

Even more exaggerated is Disney.

As a listed company, Disney's actual value including debt is US $ 2.2 billion, and the market value of the stock market is around US $ 1.5 billion, but their debt is as high as US $ 1 billion. This debt is not included in the purchase price.

This means that Yin Jun has taken over $ 1 billion in debt from the day he acquired Disney, and the annual interest is as high as $ 80 million!

Previously, Disney ’s financial situation was so bad, most of the reason was the high interest paid every year, but its own profits did not increase significantly.

But there is no way.

Lianyi does not talk about it here. If it is not to the point where the mountains and rivers are exhausted, they will not sell their shares, so the price of about 400 million yuan is still appropriate.

Disney is different. People don't want to sell at all. Goldman Sachs wants Yin Jun to buy it.

In this way, the price must not be low.

On the surface, Yin Jun was fooled and bought a large vase that was not worth buying. In fact, only Le Yiling knew how Yin Jun was eager to win Disney.

Therefore, even if the price is a bit high, Le Yiling finally agreed.

Accompanied by Le Yiling, Yin Jun went to the Goldman Sachs Xiangjiang branch, signed a trust purchase contract with Li Huaite, and entered a $ 1 billion deposit into Goldman's account. This business was on the right track.

Li White didn't dare to tell Yin Jun that although Lianyi Films was done, Goldman Sachs was only actively contacting Disney. With some temptations, there were no Disney shares in his hands.

But their courage is so great, they will say it after receiving money.

Anyway, as long as it is a company in the stock market, as long as it is not a super giant such as IBM or General Electric, Goldman Sachs has the ability to win them.

Goldman Sachs ’profit is conservatively estimated at $ 400 million in this deal with Yin Jun. This huge profit makes Goldman very satisfied and will inevitably lead to the completion of this transaction as soon as possible.

In fact, the reason why Goldman Sachs could think of selling the packaged project to Yin Jun was due to this era.

In 1980, the United States and China started a wave of mergers and acquisitions.

In this decade, more than 360,000 companies in the United States and China have been merged and acquired, thus forming large group companies one after another.

The same is true for entertainment media. There were hundreds of companies that originally engaged in entertainment media in the United States.

But by 2020, you see, it's just six Hollywood media groups.

Under such a general environment, the approval of the US Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) to acquire listed companies has also become much more convenient than before.

You should know that before this, the SEC was notoriously strict and demanding. Few foreign companies can acquire companies in the United States.

It is also at this opportunity that Colombia will be sold to SONY at a high price, otherwise you will be one day. The company wants to acquire the Hollywood Big Seven?

Ha ha, you go to see if it is dark, otherwise it is not easy to dream!

The Colombian company was acquired, and Yin Jun's current acquisition of Lianyi Film Company is completely different.

Lianyi Film Company says that it is the seventh largest in Hollywood, but it is the bottom one of the seven major Hollywood. In many cases, it is not as good as some independent second-tier film companies, but it is just a big brand and an old senior.

Even their trump card "007" has lost its appeal over the years, showing how lonely they are.

Colombia is a serious Hollywood giant, and the momentum at that time was still very strong.

SONY spent a total of 5 billion in cash and 1.6 billion in debt, plus a part of the intermediary fee, a total of 7 billion U.S. dollars to win the Colombian company, almost double Yin Yin now buy Disney.

You should know that movie companies, especially large companies, generally do not have much price fluctuations.

In fact, the Colombian company is now worth about 6 billion-of course, including about 800 million of debt.

U.S. companies rarely have non-debt, including Apple Inc., which is in full swing in the future. It's not that there is no money to pay off debts. People have more than 200 billion US dollars in working capital. It's just that Apple likes to borrow money to use it. What can you do with it?

That is because Lianyi Film Company encountered the pit goods of "Gate of Heaven" and was almost closed down by the pit, otherwise Yin Jun couldn't even catch up with it.

As for Disney?

Ha ha!

In this animation production company, which one in the film and television industry can watch?

Goldman Sachs doesn't look up to them, and thinks it's just a child's play.

Otherwise, they would not recommend it to Yin Jun, but instead recommend it to more wealthy people.

Yin Jun did n’t know much about Goldman Sachs ’minds, and he did n’t know much about capital operations.

But he knew that this contract had been signed, and in the status of Goldman Sachs, he would definitely not be able to do things that could not be entrusted.

For them, it was a huge blow that was harder than losing money.

If this is not possible, then someone will mention Goldman Sachs in the future and will say, "Oh, Goldman Sachs, that is the investment bank that collected the money from Kirin Group, but in the end it was impossible to complete the acquisition commission? What use do they have?"

What does Goldman Sachs dominate?

Hasn't it been through 100% completion of the commission from the beginning to the end, giving customers the idea of ​​"let me rest assured with Goldman Sachs"?

You promised but couldn't do it. This is a big fault in the financial industry.

Therefore, after signing the contract, Yin Jun began to take out a thick stack of scripts in a safe that had not been opened for a long time.

The first script that starts with three words on it

"The Lion King".

That's right!

This is the super classic that brought Disney's animation department back to life.

Also from this animated movie, Disney's animation is once again famous in the world and became the industry's first.

This is also known as the final glory of 2D animation.

Yin Jun is ready to use it as his first signature work after the acquisition of Disney.

Before he developed to be more powerful, Disney's road should be the same as in the previous life, slowly accumulating energy, and finally flying into the sky.

After Disney took over from Michael Eisner in the 1980s, the most important aspects of development were two aspects. The first was their Disney TV channel, and the second was their peripheral product stores.

Facts have proved that it is these two correct steps that brought huge profits to Disney, and also allowed Michael Eisner to make more animated movies and acquire more and better companies in the 1990s. .

Since it is the right path, Yin Jun does not intend to change it.

But on this basis, the teenager decided to add the peaks of the Disney animated films of the 1990s to let it develop together in the three aspects of animation, television, paradise and surrounding areas.

The first to make a name is naturally this "Lion King".

To Chinese people, "Lion King" is actually a typical routine bridge section: the prince's father was killed, he was forced to escape from the territory, after a series of tribulations and solidarity partners, and finally killed to revenge Regain his throne.

However, this bridge was applied to animation, combined with exquisite production and perfect music effects. At that time in 1994, "The Lion King" caused a global sensation and became a classic in the hearts of countless people.

Even today and today, there are small theaters such as "The Lion King" in every Disneyland performance venue, which often makes a group of children scream and cheer.

The success of "The Lion King" is not only on word of mouth, but also on the jaw-dropping box office.

If inflation is not counted, as of 2017, "The Lion King" is the third place in the global cartoon box office rankings, after "Frozen" and "Toy Story ~ www.novelhall.com ~" is $ 987 million.

But if you count inflation, the box office of "The Lion King" is as high as 1.57 billion US dollars, far surpassing "Frozen", it is well-deserved first.

This is only the movie box office of "The Lion King".

Based on Disney's peripheral product development capabilities, in the next 20 years, the sales of derivatives around "Lion King" has exceeded 2.7 billion US dollars, and will continue to make such profits in the future!

Such a big global animation box office gold mine, given to Disney as the first gift after the change of ownership, that is perfect!

As long as Disney ’s animation department is stabilized, it is a victory at this stage.

Not to mention Pixar's soul character John Lasseter, the director of their animation studio, but the famous Jeffrey Kasenberg!

Speaking of Kasenberg, many people may not know him well.

But when he mentioned that he left Disney in 1994, another company created with two old friends, everyone will suddenly understand.

DreamWorks!

And the famous DreamWorks animation was also built by him!

If it were n’t for the six big Hollywood giants at that time, DreamWorks might really rise and become Hollywood ’s seventh largest giant.

DreamWorks finally suffocated and failed, but DreamWorks animation has always been strong!

Knowing that such a giant is here, can you say that Yin Jun can let him leave?

...

(I have been so busy recently that I saw the fee for manuscripts today and found that the reward income has increased a lot. Looking back, it turned out that the second "Zhai m one second" leader was born. I'm really sorry. on!!)
