Heads Up Hollywood

Chapter 681 The style of the big boss

Sun Zhengyi is well-known in the field of Internet investment.

It's not about how high his investment level was or how much money he made.

It's that this guy has a gambler's mentality and likes to play stud!

This way of playing, winning is naturally very good.

Sun Zhengyi voted for Yahoo, Yahoo Japan, and Alibaba. This is a world-renowned success.

But, besides these, what else?

He has invested in more than 500 Internet companies, and as a result... 99% of them are operating at a loss.

When Alibaba's market value was 500 billion US dollars, Softbank still controlled 30% of Alibaba's shares, and these shares were worth 150 billion US dollars!

But what happened?

SoftBank's market cap...is only $100 billion.

That is to say, apart from Alibaba's shares, other assets under Softbank are completely negative assets in the eyes of investors!

Sun Zhengyi has a big heart. When investing, he likes to be ruthless, which will inevitably make investors panic.

It is now 2003, and Masayoshi Son has turned his career around by relying on Yahoo Japan.

For the Internet, he is as enthusiastic as ever!

"Although it's just a concept at the moment...but I think my concept is worth $1 billion."

Now that Sun Zhengyi was convinced of his gamble-like temperament, Tang En of course asked the lion to open his mouth.

"A billion dollars?"

Zhou Fang Yuxiong almost dropped his jaw in shock.

I'm about to kneel!

He also thought about taking 20% ​​or even 30% of the shares of the website "Netflix Japan".

However, Tang En's quotation was 1 billion US dollars.

His entire net worth is only more than 200 million US dollars, how can he afford it?

Sun Zhengyi was short and fat, and looked very kind, with a natural expression.

Internet projects, $1 billion... not much!

Especially projects operated by such a big man as Dunn Walker are even rarer.

Unlike Zhou Fangyuxiong, Sun Zhengyi's business circle is mainly in the United States.

He knows a lot about America.

I also found a lot of information about Netflix.

To be honest, after seeing it, I was very surprised!

New Universal spent huge sums of money to buy film and television copyrights all over the world, which already showed Tang En's importance to this website.

You know, not counting those bought out film and television copyrights, the rent alone would cost 100 million U.S. dollars a year!

How bold is this?

It is much more risky than investing in "Netflix Japan" worth 1 billion US dollars to start a business.

"Tang En, can you tell me about the relationship between Netflix and Netflix Japan?" After all, Sun Zhengyi has seen the world, and the funds in his hands are not comparable to Zhou Fangyu Xiong.

Tang En smiled, "What Netflix has, Netflix Japan will also have, not only the technology, but also most of the film and television copyrights. Of course, this is only the support at the start-up stage, and it is the capital of Netflix's 49% shares invest."

Generally speaking, when a company controls 25% of another company's shares, it can be taken care of as its own subsidiary. Netflix will own 49% of the shares of Netflix Japan, there is no reason not to support it.

Masayoshi Son’s work efficiency is extremely high. When he invested in Boss Ma, it took 6 minutes to get it done, and when he invested in the Saudi prince… 45 minutes, he got 45 billion US dollars.

Tang En's various legends in Hollywood and the large amount of resources invested in Netflix are enough to show that he is optimistic about this website.

"Is it the video industry?"

"oh?"

Tang En's eyes lit up and he glanced at him.

Sun Zhengyi said with a smile: "I heard that Netflix has signed a large number of online film and television copyright lease agreements with many American film companies. It is not difficult to analyze that Netflix's future key business will shift from DVD rental to online video. "

Tang En said frankly: "Yes, I am optimistic about the future of the Internet!"

Zhou Fang Yuxiong also understood, and said pleasantly, "Mr. Yasumoto, isn't this just right? Isn't Yahoo Japan in the past two years developing telecom operations business?"

Sun Zhengyi looked a little proud, "That's right, Yahoo Japan's telecom operation business has been in operation for two years, and the number of users is almost reaching 3 million."

3 million users, this is not a small number!

In Japan today, the total number of Internet users is less than 10 million.

Tang En blinked and said with a smile: "If that's the case, then it's a matter of course. In the future, Netflix Japan will have more cooperation with Yahoo Japan."

Sun Zhengyi asked a question he was very concerned about: "Excuse me, Netflix Japan...how will this company be managed?"

Tang En said: "With the successful case of Yahoo Japan, it is natural to follow suit. In the final analysis, this is a Japanese company, and Netflix will only occupy 49% of the shares. Of course, President Zhou Fang must take up an important position, and the film and television entertainment industry... cannot do without him network support."

Zhou Fangyu Xiongmei's snot was about to bubble.

Sun Zhengyi was also very satisfied.

Last night, Zhou Fang Yuxiong called him and told him about Netflix Japan. When he heard Dunn Walker's name, he was impulsive and wanted to respond on the spot and participate in the investment.

Today's meeting, Tang En's frankness and generosity impressed him very much, and he solemnly said immediately: "Mr. Walker, to be honest, no one in this world will miss the opportunity to cooperate with you. Softbank and Yahoo Japan, Will jointly participate in the investment, what do you think?"

Tang En certainly wouldn't say no.

Since he gave up 51% of the shares to a Japanese company, he must bring in the best partners.

Softbank is second, and Yahoo Japan is too powerful.

Yahoo Japan's status in Japan is equivalent to "Google+Yahoo+msn+Comcast" in the United States.

Is the giant of the Internet!

With such a huge resource advantage, are you afraid that Netflix will not become popular in Japan?

Next, the three briefly discussed the specific investment details. In fact, Tang En and Sun Zhengyi were making decisions, and Tang En led.

Tang En didn't like trouble, and Sun Zhengyi acted vigorously and quickly settled down.

Netflix invested in technology, copyright, and trademark, accounting for 49% of the shares;

SoftBank Group invested 100 million US dollars, accounting for 10% of the shares;

Yahoo Japan invested 70 million US dollars, accounting for 10% of the shares;

Zhou Fangyuxiong invested 30 million US dollars, accounting for 11% of the shares.

The remaining 20% ​​shares are reserved for the time being and are vacant for future options and further financing.

Zhou Fangyu Xiong got 11% of the share, which was lower than he imagined.

But look at Sun Zhengyi, he is balanced.

Softbank invested 100 million US dollars and got 10%; Yahoo Japan invested 70 million US dollars and got 10%; he only invested 30 million US dollars, and with Tang En's insistence, he got 11%!

You know, the concept of "Netflix Japan" is worth 1 billion US dollars, and 11% of the shares are 110 million!

Before this Internet company was officially established, he had already made a lot of money!

Who is all this coming from?

Dawn Walker!

Zhou Fang Yuxiong's restless heart could not calm down for a long time.

My heart was already soaring.

On the one hand, it was shocking Tang En and Sun Zhengyi's negotiations.

Sure enough, it was the style of a big boss. For a large project worth hundreds of millions of dollars, it took the two of them no more than 20 minutes from the meeting to the establishment of the investment ratio.

It's really not comparable to such a small amount of money in the entertainment industry.

On the other hand, he thought of what Tang En said to him yesterday.

If the development goes well, Netflix Japan is likely to have a market value of more than 30 billion U.S. dollars in ten years!

Then... 11% of the shares is a full $3.3 billion!

That's enough to put him in the top 30 of Japan's rich list!

Zhou Fang Yuxiong's heart was ups and downs, surging and restless.

He was sure that the most correct choice he had made in his life was to stay low and be small, which won Tang En's favor and approval!

Although this is the second "selection of girls", in order to select a girl who meets Tang En's requirements, he has searched all the entertainment agencies in Japan, consuming a lot of favors.

However, the hard work was not in vain! The hard work paid off!

Hugging Tang En's thigh, the future will only get better and better!

...

Tang En did not expect that it would be so easy to deal with Sun Zhengyi.

Probably because he is too famous.

Recently, news of fierce competition between Netflix and Blockbuster has been widely reported in the United States, and Masayoshi Son must have heard of it.

One is a rising Internet company, and the other is a traditional enterprise that is heavily in debt and forced to transform.

From Sun Zhengyi's perspective, he will definitely make the right choice.

Netflix didn't spend a penny, and it smoothly opened up its business territory in Japan.

This deal is really worth it!

Especially after monopolizing the Japanese streaming media market, Netflix Japan will have access to the big data of all Japanese people, which can even greatly help New Universal Group - such as Facebook's business expansion in Japan.

"30 million US dollars in exchange for 11% of the shares is already the greatest possibility. No matter how much more, Masayoshi Abe will not budge."

After Sun Zhengyi left, Tang En walked over and patted Zhou Fangyu Xiong's shoulder in an old-fashioned way.

Zhou Fang Yuxiong looked grateful, and said sincerely: "I know, 11%... is enough. To be honest, I thought I would only be a manager in my life, but I didn't expect that I would also meet noble people by fate."

Tang En smiled disapprovingly, "President Zhou Fang, you deserve this. I will never be stingy with my friends!"

"Yes, friend!" Zhou Fangyuxiong was about to shed tears of excitement, "I have limited abilities, I really have nothing to repay..."

Tang En smiled faintly, "I don't need to mention anything in return. As long as you can take good care of my girls, that's fine."

Zhou Fang Yuxiong patted his chest to reassure, and said with a serious face: "Don't worry, I guarantee that nothing will go wrong! If there is a mistake, I will apologize!"

Tang En let out a soft "Yeah", and was very satisfied with his attitude, "Don't tell me, your Japanese girls are so sweet, pure and well-behaved, they really suit my taste. This job will trouble you If there are girls like Aragaki Yui and Horikita Maki, remember to keep them for me, and don’t let those bastards spoil them. This kind of development game is not bad.”

Zhou Fang Yuxiong nodded again and again, and echoed: "Yes, yes, daughter, of course, the more the better. It is also their blessing to be filial by the side of a big man like you. Don't worry, Mr. Walker, this matter is covered by me. body!"
