Chapter 289 【Acquisition of Sony! 】(Ask a monthly pass!)

Keswick, who returned to the headquarters of Jardine Matheson, immediately turned gloomy. I never thought that the Chinese boy was not only strong, but also very cunning!

"Hong Kong Island is still not our British territory, why did such a monster of Chinese businessmen come out? Even the consortium and the royal family in London are optimistic about him!" Keswick said to himself.

It’s not that Keswick didn’t think about the trouble with Wu Guangyao. The key is that when Wu Guangyao and Jardine Matheson had conflicts, Wu Guangyao had grown up and had a good relationship with the Hong Kong government and HSBC.

Many officials in the Hong Kong government have received the kid’s belongings, so Yihe has no way of starting.

And now, Wu Guangyao is the key to the stability of Hong Kong Island, and it is even less likely that the Hong Kong government will deliberately trouble Wu Guangyao.

So, Wu Guangyao is really not afraid of these foreign firms now.

Of course, there is no way to clean up others, otherwise the Hong Kong government and London will suppress Wu Guangyao in minutes.

Normal business competition, everyone has nothing to say. After all, both sides are the forces that the Hong Kong government and London need to win.

The first thing Wu Guangyao did when he returned to Cheung Kong was to summon the Three Musketeers.

"This piece of land is immediately ready to establish a project to build a building. It is better to invite American design institutes and builders to participate; as for the property rights, it belongs to Cheung Kong Real Estate!"

"Yes, we will arrange it right away! We will show you the drawing as soon as possible!" Shi Jun said.

"Well, it's not particularly urgent! This project has at least 40 floors, and it is also very difficult to build. The construction time is set within four years!"

So I put the property rights of this building on Cheung Kong Real Estate, because the development of this building also requires a lot of cash investment. Cheung Kong Holdings is obviously not suitable, so I just invest it myself;

In the future, even if this building has family fixed assets, Cheung Kong Real Estate will continue to exist.

A message from Dongying made Wu Guangyao decide to set off immediately and rush to Dongying.

Wu Guangyao’s private advisory team has repeatedly contacted the two founders of Sony Corporation-Tai Shen and Akio Morita. The two finally let go and expressed their willingness to accept the acquisition of Lenovo Electric, but they needed to have an interview with Wu Guangyao.

Good thing!

Wu Guangyao became excited, he was not after Sony, but these two talents;

If they can join Lenovo Electric, Wu Guangyao will be as powerful as a tiger, and with two wings.

They hope to have a face-to-face meeting with them. Wu Guangyao seems to know what conditions to make, but as long as there are not too many, Wu Guangyao thinks he can agree.

The temporary prosperity of an enterprise does not mean that it will continue to flourish!

But with these two, Wu Guangyao believes that Lenovo's 50 years of prosperity will be no problem.

As the saying goes, a thousand soldiers are easy to get, and a general is hard to find; this is the mood of Wu Guangyao at this time.

The flight attendant on the plane saw that Wu Guangyao was in a good mood, so she immediately gathered up for all kinds of courtesy. Needless to say, she just wanted to be on top!

Wu Guangyao is a torment every time he takes his own plane. After all, these stewardess have no appearance and temperament!

I heard that many wealthy people on Hong Kong Island are proud to marry a flight attendant of Island Airlines;

I want to come to think that the appearance and temperament of these flight attendants are not worse than those of the rich ladies, and more importantly, they are full of allure.

When he got off the plane, Wu Guangyao's crotch was obviously bulging, which made Wu Guangyao embarrassed for a while, but fortunately, he quickly picked up his mood and got in the car to pick up his own Haruko.

"Brother, I want to go to work at Lenovo Electric. I want to learn more, and I want to start my own business in the future." Haruko’s first words gave Wu Guangyao a glimpse!

Did Haruko and Keika Hisano have a contradiction?

"Tell me the reason!" Wu Guangyao said calmly.

Haruko graduated less than a year ago, and she was all in the management of Huixiang's jewelry store. I don't know why she was unhappy.

"I'm pregnant, sister Huixiang is also pregnant!" Haruko said shyly.

"Well, good thing, let me arrange it! I'll wait for my reply later!" Wu Guangyao quickly realized what Haruko's worries were.

Wu Guangyao once told these women that they wanted them to create a family for themselves!

So Haruko and Huixiang, if they jointly own Dongying's jewelry company and electrical chain store, they are obviously not a big family.

Naturally Haruko wants to be independent and own her own business!

Of course, she doesn’t have ambitions to want Lenovo Electric, she just wants a career!

But Lenovo is obviously not suitable for her to go to work. Sony, which is about to get it, is quite suitable for her!

In the future, Sony will develop music, movies, games and other careers, but it is quite suitable for a girl to work.

If Sony develops arcades, red and white consoles and other game equipment in the future, and then establishes record companies and film companies, this business will be big.

However, Sony will definitely become a subsidiary of Lenovo, and Haruko can only use cash to acquire shares in the hands of some retail investors with the help of Wu Guangyao;

Whether it is the stock market or the acquisition of a part of the equity from Lenovo Electric, it can only become a second shareholder at most.

The next day, Wu Guangyao and his private advisory team (Ei Bensheng is not there), met Ino Fuka Tai and Morita Akio in a box of a hotel.

Humbled each other a bit, and everyone returned to the topic.

"Mr. Wu, can you please clarify something?" Morita Akio said.

"Well, just ask, I must know everything."

"As far as I know, the layout of Lenovo Electric is complete, why would we still look at Sony?"

Wu Guangyao smiled and said: "No company has a complete map. As long as the company still exists, it will continue to merge; think about it, once a competitor has become his own assistant, what a wonderful thing. Of course, the real reason why Sony deserves to be acquired by Lenovo is the two of you!"

"Us?" Jing Shen questioned greatly.

"Yes, it's you!"

Isukayama and Morita Akio looked at each other, still don’t know why Wu Guangyao valued them, but it’s hard to keep asking.

"We do not accept cash acquisitions. We require that the shares in our hands be exchanged for shares in Lenovo Electric; at the same time, after we assist you in the acquisition of Sony, the positions of the two of us remain unchanged; and as the parent company of Lenovo Electric, we have to invest in our Sony , Just like treating other subsidiaries, don’t be partial!” Jing Shenda said.

The reason why the two are willing to be acquired is because they want to continue their business, so they put forward such demanding requirements.

"You two might as well listen to my opinion!" Wu Guangyao said relaxedly.

"You say!"

"There is no problem with the merger and acquisition. We will discuss the value of the two companies later; but I have different opinions on your arrangements. That is, you come to Lenovo as the vice president, one in charge of technology, one in management, and four Like the general manager, he reports directly to me. Sony’s arrangement is that Lenovo will transfer the radio business to Sony, and later mainly develop radios, tape recorders, video cameras and other equipment."

They couldn’t help being shocked after hearing this. How could this one consider them so much!

At this time, the value of Lenovo Electric is at least US$50 million, while Sony is just a small listed company with a market value of US$5 million, with a size difference of ten times.

More importantly, the two directly became the vice presidents of Lenovo Electric, and this one really valued them.

In fact, the reason why Wu Guangyao has such a heavy responsibility for two people is that he has not been in Lenovo Electric for a long time, so he needs two more people who can coordinate the overall situation.

Of course, in order to keep the four ministers from disagreeing, Wu Guangyao will try to match them up, and their status is also given equal, and they all report to himself; later, Tai Shen Tai and Akio Morita proved themselves with their strength, but they can be half-spaced. Above the four heads.

In short, everything depends on strength!

Three days later, Sony announced the suspension of stock trading on the grounds that the company needed major reforms.

In the conference room at Lenovo’s headquarters, everyone is also signing a contract.

The approximate content of the contract is: "Yi Shen Dai and Morita Akio will hold 65% of Sony's shares, at a price of 3.25 million U.S. dollars to buy shares in Lenovo Electric, in exchange for 6% of the shares, Sony will become a subsidiary of Lenovo Electric."

This time, Wu Guangyao’s shares have been reduced again, probably less than 55%!

But Wu Guangyao is not worried at all!

Lenovo Electric is more like a complicated consortium in the later period, and Wu Guangyao will never lose his dominant power.

After the contract was signed, Wu Guangyao said to everyone: "Everyone may know me a little bit, I am a very ambitious person! Dongying Electric Co. I want to fight for the first place, and the world electric giant is also my goal. Therefore, you must unite. Otherwise I will tell you, this company can lack anyone, but I can't be without me!"

Everyone trembled one after another, and they were so young and powerful!

Then Wu Guangyao said: "Two vice-chairmen, recently I will get acquainted with the company environment first, and then I have an important task to entrust you two!"

"It is the chairman, I will get acquainted with the work as soon as possible, and live up to the chairman's trust!" said Akio Morita.

Jing Shenda also made a statement later.

The next day, when Lenovo Electric acquired Sony Electric, it once again shocked Dongying for two political and business terms!

Wu Guangyao is not afraid of the Dongying government's black hand, because Dongying dare not at this time, they are developing the economy, they will never treat a foreign investment like this; when they dare in the future, Lenovo Electric has become a world-class company, and they are even more so. Dare not!

After the opening of the market, Sony’s stock did not plummet, but soared. This is something that everyone did not expect!

Many investors are thinking that Lenovo Electric wants to hand over the radio business to Sony, so they feel that Sony should not be worth 5 million US dollars; but they don’t want to think about how long it will take for Lenovo to hand over the radio business to Sony!

Shareholders will not consider these. Of course, from the long-term value point of view, Sony’s stock is very valuable.

Just after Lenovo Appliance acquired Sony Appliance, Lenovo Appliance held another media conference and announced the production of Dongying's first color TV.

For a time, there is no difference in the limelight!
