Chapter 304: The Goddess of China's Household
Leave Sally Redstone's home.
Abel ignored the grudges and revenge that would happen to the Thunderstone family next.
That's not his business.
As long as the other party is willing to sell, he is willing to buy it. If he is unwilling to sell it, it doesn't matter. To be honest, these 20% shares cannot affect the overall situation. He can only disgust Lei Shidong himself.
In addition, it gives the market or other shareholders a feeling that the situation is hopeless, which will be of better help to Abel's next behavior.
But this 20% stake is indeed worth US$2.2 billion. This is Redstone's lifelong effort, and National Entertainment controls more than 70% of the voting rights of CBS and Vilcom.
Master the National Entertainment Company.
You can only spend a small amount of money and control giants like CBS and Viacom.
This method was invented by the entrepreneurial teams of startups in order to maintain control of the company. Split the stocks and raise more money to use for the company's development.
But this can easily lose control of the company.
What to do?
Class A stocks and Class B stocks were invented in this way. Class A stocks own the ownership and dividend rights of the company, but their voting rights are much lower than Class B stocks. However, Class B stocks have no difference between dividend rights and ownership and Class A stocks.
However, his voting rights are better than Class A stocks. It allows entrepreneurial teams and management teams to occupy a large part of the company's control with a very small number of stocks.
There are many companies in the world that have developed from childhood to adulthood. The reason why founders can use a small amount of stocks is to control an entire company.
In addition to their own prestige in starting a business, the biggest reason is the different control rights of stocks.
Some people may say, I bought your stock, why is my voting rights so much lower than yours?
hehe……
During a period of a company's booming development, if the market value is predictable, you can make money by investing in it. At this time, their founder said, you can buy our stocks at the market price.
But if you want to buy our stocks, you only have ownership and dividend rights, and you have no share in the management and control of the company.
If you don't agree.
I won't sell the stock to you.
In this case, if the company is really a popular era, more than 70% of buyers will be willing to accept such stocks. Because they are not in the mood to manage the company, as long as the company belongs to them, they can pay dividends as usual every year, then it will be fine.
Leishidong and the bosses of large groups and large enterprises in the world rely on this method to occupy an entire company with very few stocks compared to the total share capital of the company.
National Entertainment has a market value of only about 10 billion, but it controls nearly 77% of Class B stocks in CBS and Viacom.
And the actual value of these controls and the stocks of the two giants is more than US$8 billion.
Spend 2.2 billion US dollars to buy 20% of its stock, which is absolutely worth it!
I just don’t know whether Sally Redstone is willing to sell it. This is the real problem.
Putting aside Viacom and CBS for the time being, Abel wants to go back to No. 67 Beverly Park Community to take a look.
On the way.
I received a call from the president of Time Warner, which is Abel's "old friend" Jeff Bicks.
The other party invited him to have dinner together in the evening.
Abel hesitated for less than a few seconds.
Just agreed.
This time Time Warner helped him a lot. Not to mention his communication with Sally Redstone, let alone help him in just a few days, he introduced many sellers who were willing to sell Viacom and CBS stocks.
This was of great help to Abel to increase control over the two companies.
Now Jeff Bicks seems to have something to ask for in his words, so let’s go and have a look!
Abel agreed to Jeff Bicks' request for a meeting.
Time is at night.
The location doesn’t have to be too far away, anyway, the whole Hollywood is near Beverly Hills. There is no need to look far away and go to a place that is too far away to meet.
There are not too many high-end hotels and high-end occasions around Beverly Hills.
However, Jeff Bicks didn't choose any high-end occasions, and directly held a hotel where Time Warner and Wells Fargo jointly held a premium cocktail party.
Central Hilton Hotel on Beverly Hills.
After agreeing to the other party's invitation.
Abel first returned to No. 67, Beverly Park Community.
In broad daylight, he teased two smart and a little too intelligent parrots for several hours in order to make it easier to get married.
After chatting with Gornetti and Eve for a while, I was concerned about the learning situation of the more beautiful and cute Eve who was falling out.
Time passes slowly.
At eight o'clock in the evening, Abel arrived as promised.
To his surprise, Jeff Bicks actually came to pick him up at the hotel gate.
Abel smiled like a thoughtful smile.
As the saying goes, if you show your diligence, you will either be a traitor or a thief. It is impossible for the head of a media giant like Jeff Bicks to run to the door to greet him without any request.
"Mr. Seifrosa!! Good evening!"
"Good evening! Mr. Bicks!"
The old and the young held their hands.
"I have heard about some things today. It is said that the old guy from Redstone was furious in his daughter's villa!" Jeff Bicks laughed and deliberately blinked at Abel. "He is not afraid of being angry with his body. He is not the media emperor when he was young!"
"Haha... I did nothing. Arguing is also a matter of their family."
Abel laughed back.
"Please inside!"
"please."
Abel followed Jeff Bicks into the hotel, and a group of people walked together, inevitably attracted people's attention.
Everyone in the hotel looked at the group of people.
They were a little excited to see Jeff Bicks, who was famous in Los Angeles and in Hollywood.
This is the president of Time Warner. After At&T took over Time Warner, he still holds the highest power! Even because of the board of directors, he now has higher power.
This is Hollywood, this is Beverly Hills. It is the place where the most young people pursue their dreams of celebrities in the world. Sometimes, the one who washes dishes in a hotel is the most beautiful or handsome young people in a certain place.
They came here just to find a chance to reach the sky. There is no doubt that Jeff Bicks is definitely such an opportunity to reach the sky!
If you can be taken by Jeff Bicks and then taken by Time Warner, then your future star journey will definitely be open!
Everyone looked at Jeff Bicks with a hot look.
However, there are so many bodyguards around, and they want to go up, they are afraid they will be driven away.
They could only watch from a distance, watching Jeff Bicks walk side by side with a young man, talking and laughing, and couldn't help but be surprised and secretly guessed who it was.
Some people think Abel looks so familiar, but they can't remember it.
In more than ten seconds, Abel, Jeff Bicks and other groups soon disappeared under the leadership of the hotel manager.
They are both regretful and a little regretful.
However, some people took a cell phone to take a picture and recorded a video, either posting photos or tweeting.
The media boss has a strong aura...
The young man next to him was so handsome, and his momentum even surpassed the media boss next to him, giving people the feeling that Jeff Bicks was trying to please him.
Not to mention these onlookers, some of them later recognized Abel's identity, which was even more surprised.
His eyes continued to return to Abel.
Under the leadership of Jeff Bicks, Abel came to a private room where a woman sat in the private room.
This woman stunned Abel slightly.
Because he knew this woman, he might not have a reputation in the United States, but if it were put in China.
It's a household name.
