Chapter 382【Retreat to Second】

The next day, Wu Guangyao and his team came to the office of News of the World;

In fact, Wu Guangyao does not need to participate in this kind of negotiation in person, just let a private advisory group come to talk;

However, since I have time, I feel more fulfilling to participate in person. After all, this is the first step for Oriental Media to step out of Asia.

Since the appointment has already been made yesterday, everyone naturally met the master-the chairman of the "News of the World" Karl.

"Sir Wu, hello! I have long admired the reputation of the world's ship king, and I am finally lucky enough to see it today." Karl took the initiative to extend his hand and said enthusiastically.

It seems that among all Wu Guangyao’s names, only "World Ship King" is the most famous and loudest;

After all, with this status, Wu Guangyao is already a guest of leaders of various countries.

"Mr. Carl, you are polite!" Wu Guangyao also responded friendly.

Anyway, if the acquisition is to be successful this time, Carl’s happiness is the key thing!

Because I hold 80% of the "News of the World" shares, I am not afraid of any forced acquisition.

During   , Chris took the initiative to say hello to Carl: "Uncle Carl, hello!"

Carl was obviously taken aback. He seemed familiar with this beautiful girl, but he was not sure.

"This is Chris Buulvo Lytton, I have seen you with my father before!"

Carl suddenly realized, and finally realized that this is not the fourth Earl Litton!

This is much higher than his own jazz status.

After the two sides say hello, finally get to the topic.

"Sir Carl, we at Oriental Media want to buy the "News of the World" in your hands."

"Sir Wu, "News of the World" is not for sale by the Carl family, sorry!"

Not for sale, you still see us, isn’t this a contradiction?

"Sir Carl is joking, there are no non-sale items in the world! For 800,000 pounds, how about we acquire all the shares in Sir Carl's hands?" Wu Guangyao gave a premium of 17%.

"Sir Wu, the Carl family really has no intention of selling the shares in their hands!" After Carl's expression changed a little, he refused.

Wu Guangyao smiled, no longer speaking, Jonathan immediately took over the negotiation.

"Sir Carl, my boss really came here with sincerity, or you can say a price!"

Karl continued to shake his head, unmoved, in fact, his heart was already moved!

"Sir Carl, according to my investigation, the sales of "News of the World" are still declining, and your usual tricks (yellow content) are no longer valid. Rather than let it bury it, you might as well let us Eastern Media try it. You may not Knowing the strength of our Oriental Media on Hong Kong Island, I will give you a detailed explanation." Jonathan said, explaining how powerful it is. In summary, if you can't do it, why not let us do it too!

Kris finally knew that acquiring a company is not just about a bunch of numbers, but also has to clarify the relationship.

"1.6 million pounds, if you must win it, that's the price!" Carl finally let go, but the price was a full 120% premium.

If Dongfang Media wins this price, wouldn’t it be a joke?

Just this act of being taken advantage of can make British media colleagues laugh at it for a month.

Jonathan continued to bargain. For a little while, the price stayed at 1.2 million pounds, and Carl never let go.

Wu Guangyao and others had to go back to the house temporarily to discuss.

Back to the hotel, Jonathan said: "Boss, you don't want to participate in the next step, so that Carl thinks you are rich and wants to make a fortune."

Wu Guangyao nodded, and Jonathan made sense.

"You go and contact Carl again. If he refuses to give in, we will discuss with him to jointly run the "News of the World". In only half a year, our Oriental Media will be able to bring the "News of the World" back to life and sales. It's greatly improved. When the time comes, let him go directly, wouldn't it be more relieved!"

Everyone's eyes lit up, and they very much agree with Wu Guangyao's view!

As long as Eastern Media owns 40% of the shares, participates in the management of "News of the World", and then wins over other shareholders and makes trouble on the board of directors, Carl's position as chairman must not be handed over.

Of course, the key to this is to talk about the results, otherwise why do other shareholders support you!

At this point, Wu Guangyao is very confident. After Murdoch ran the "News of the World" in his previous life, he used a lot of shocking news to attract attention. After half a year, sales increased sharply.

Learned this trick by Oriental Media!

Time came to the third day, and things finally turned around. Carl was willing to sell 38% of the shares of Oriental Media at a price of 500,000 pounds. Oriental Media participated in the specific operation of "News of the World".

The two sides did not publicize the matter with much fanfare. Each has its own reasons and each has its own calculations!

Europe, Wu Guangyao is going to leave for the United States to meet with Buffett;

Before leaving, Wu Guangyao said to Yang Kang: "Let Qingshan Lv personally lead a team to catch this matter, remember what I said, if we want to change the status quo of the "News of the World", we must use the news that we have heard. The pictures are coded at three points and the violent pictures are slightly blurred. If these three tricks are used well, we will be eligible to let Karl step down in less than half a year."

Yang Kang said: "Boss rest assured, Lu Qingshan is a veteran of newspapers and periodicals, and he will definitely understand your truth!"

At this time, Wu Guangyao, in order to make money or increase his influence, can be said to be a bit radical!

But this is the case with businessmen. Naturally, they have to be aggressive for money, although this will be criticized.

After everyone left, Chris recovered from the shock and couldn't help asking: "Are you the kind of businessman who can do everything?"

Wu Guangyao said frankly: "If you don't use these strange tricks, how can you change the status quo of News World! Also, if I don't do this, won't others do it? At least I still know coding and blurring. Gram Reese, you have to remember that a businessman is a businessman. You can have your own bottom line, but you must first consider making money."

Chris seemed to understand, but Wu Guangyao could only shook his head, he didn't have a deep life!

If it is not for Wu Guangyao and other industries, I am afraid of being affected;

Then Wu Guangyao may have learned from Murdoch in later generations, and directly used fruit and violent pictures to render the attractiveness of the newspaper, instead of making a code, blurring it, and pretending to be a saint.

In fact, sometimes Wu Guangyao is thinking that if he hadn't received nine years of compulsory education in his previous life, then maybe he would be no different from Li Chaoren, and everything is based on interests.

At the very least, he will change his nationality to facilitate his own business.

In recent years, politicians in London invited themselves to become British citizens every year and gave many policy promises. Wu Guangyao was really tempted!

After all, if you become a British citizen and you are so rich, you can immediately acquire a large number of British industries, such as Rolls Royce and Bentley in the automotive field, such as entering the oil industry.

Unfortunately, Wu Guangyao couldn't pass that level in his heart!

However, my own mixed-race sons are about to grow up, so let’s do it in their name at that time!

For example, Wu Guangyao intends to allow himself, Kaila and Huixiang's eldest son to naturalize the United States, which will be much more convenient then.

Remember that the founders of the Rothschild family had five sons in total, and they operated businesses all over the world. Only in this way could the Rothschild family truly become a success.
