Chapter 2002: Cut off

After the Qiao leader left, Yin Jun first called Kolotti and asked him to help him deal with the Apple share transaction with the Qiao leader.

Prior to that, Krautti had helped Yin Jun to acquire 20% of Apple's shares, and this time let him continue to deal with it.

If you add 15% of Apple ’s shares in the hands of Qiao Gang, Yin Jun has 35% of Apple ’s shares, which is theoretically Apple ’s largest shareholder.

But Yin Jun does not participate in Apple's various decisions.

He even asked Kolotti, as before, the 15% of the shares had to be dispersed into more than a dozen accounts.

For the specific procedures, Krautti will certainly be able to do it properly.

The teenager also raised this matter with Qiao Gang, who only had to sell the shares to Yin Jun. He did not have any opinions about how Yin Jun operated.

As a result, 35% of the shares have been spread out so much that they are simply not visible.

In this part of the shares, Yin Jun directly entrusted Goldman Sachs to exercise the shares instead of taking care of himself.

On the one hand, the current Apple is not worthy of Yin Jun ’s fanfare to publicize its shareholding. Secondly, Yin Jun is also waiting for the opportunity to wait until the day they ca n’t hold on, and then enter the Apple company in an upright manner, and invite the Joe who has already fully understood come back.

As for the price issue, Yin Jun decided to give Joe 300 million in cash directly to Joe, and help him pay transaction tax and stock income tax, which can be regarded as a kind of compensation for him.

This money is nothing to Yin Jun.

Because Yin Jun is about to grab his industrial light magic animation team, he will always be a little embarrassed.

After finishing the call, Kolotti directly negotiated with Joe's personal financial advisor, and Yin Jun directly called George Lucas on the second call.

At seven o'clock in the evening, Yin Jun and George Lucas sat in an Italian restaurant.

George Lucas, who was eating gorge, was as if he had just been released from prison. He made Yin Jun look funny.

"George, don't you think the people next to you are watching you?" Yin Jun smiled. "The super-director and the big boss of the movie company are so rude. They must be thinking, are they wrong? "

"It's up to you!" George Lucas took another sip of red wine, and then continued to attack the lamb chops, "I tell you, Jun, I have been living a **** like this for a week, I have been three days I haven't had a good meal ... This woman is really offended! "

"What's wrong?" Yin Jun said in surprise, "Your new girlfriend is a violent maniac?"

"Not her." George Lucas sighed, "It's my ex-wife."

"How did you offend her?" Yin Jun smiled.

George Lucas ’s ex-wife was called Makaria, and was a photographer. The two had been married for 14 years and then announced their divorce the year before.

Both had no children, but because George Lucas was very rich, Makaria had given up his job and concentrated on his loyal help, so the judge ruled that George Lucas paid a large amount of support.

However, what is interesting is that after the two divorced, they ate together from time to time, which was more like a pair of old friends.

"Isn't it because of alimony?" George Lucas said. "I have a problem with investment here. The stock market and funds can't be drawn out for a while. Plus the large amount of money needed to make movies, so I wanted to tell her that she had to postpone the support for the past few months. As a result, she turned to me and said that if I did not pay it on time, she would apply to the court to freeze my company. "

"Isn't she crazy? How could it be so big?" Yin Jun frowned.

George Lucas's company is working on two movies, with an investment of more than 50 million US dollars. If it is frozen, it will definitely not be able to start construction in a month or two, and the money will be completely floated.

50 million US dollars of cash is definitely a huge amount for George Lucas.

After all, the wealthy rich people in the United States and China are not all in the hands of hundreds of millions of billions of cash. Most of them are placed on the stock market and funds.

If you sell the stocks and redeem the funds when the market is not good, it is obviously a very bad loss trading. No normal person is willing to do so.

In addition to the loss in cash, the production staff, actors, distribution companies, etc. involved in the movie will all suffer losses. If this part is really to be counted, it will be at least tens of millions of dollars.

Just because of George Lucas's face, it may just mean to make up for it in the end.

But if possible, George Lucas certainly did not want to do this. His face is consumed here, which is simply too cheap.

And to the extent that things are happening, it is also a well-known person in Hollywood, where does George Lucas's face go?

"Who said no?" George Lucas lowered his voice. "In fact, she wanted to remarry me, but I don't love her anymore, which is impossible. So she took the opportunity to rush and want to force Let me take a look ... These days, she called me every day, and even let me go at night, I almost collapsed! "

"So what are you going to do?" Yin Jun asked sympathetically.

"Look, if it doesn't work, I'm going to sell some properties." George Lucas frowned a little.

"Sell the industry?" Yin Jun looked unbelievable. "Is the news I heard recently true? I heard someone tell me that you want to sell Lucasfilm?"

"Fart! Who said that?" Lucas said furiously, but wondering, "Strange, who are you listening to?"

"Don't care who said it, George, what do you want to sell? Tell me what I want to hear?" Yin Jun shook his hand and started the conversation.

No one had talked to Yin Jun at first, he just knew the result, so he deliberately said this to cause a topic.

George Lucas did not hide, "I want to sell my industrial light magic ..."

"I buy!" Yin Jun said directly before he finished, "How much do you want to make a price! I like industrial light and magic!"

"Don't dream anymore!" George Lucas was funny, "You hear me say it's okay! I'm not an industrial light magic who sells the whole thing, I'm an animation production team that sells industrial light magic ... I think they The overhead is too large, and there is no good project for them to do, so I want to cut this department and see if anyone is willing to take over ... how are you still interested? "

"Animation team?" The interest on Yin Jun's face suddenly decreased by more than half. "I have a Disney animation team in my hand. There are more than 500 people, which is much more than your little animation team. Too much excellence. "

"You say that, I disagree." George Lucas said, "The animation production team I cultivated, but all of them are talented, not worse than you! Especially in terms of computers and special effects, they are absolutely better than others. Your group of old animators are much more powerful! It ’s just that they did n’t have a good project, and they did n’t have a chance to show it! ”

"Animation and special effects ..."

Yin Jun groaned for a while, and then said: "How much are you going to sell?"

"20 million dollars, no price." George Lucas said while eating.

20000000! ?

The teenager almost scolded people almost immediately!

Your little animation production team with only thirty or so people has no achievements yet, but dare to sell $ 20 million?

When you sell it to a layman, Joe, next year, it's only $ 10 million.

Old Joe, old Joe, you are slaughtering your friends like pigs!

Looking at Yin Jun's angry expression, George Lucas himself was a little embarrassed himself, and coughed a little: "This is my quotation from the outside world these days, hehe, if you really buy it, it will definitely not be the price."

"Say a real price!" Yin Jun said angrily, "George, your animation team is just a icing on the cake, not a gift from the snow. I am willing to buy it, it's just for the sake of friends, you can Do n’t let the lion speak up! "

"Um ... 15 million dollars?" George Lucas said tentatively.

Yin Jun waved his hand directly, "Hurry to eat, go home after eating!"

"Haha, Jun, you really can't talk about business! How can you hear that the price is not bargaining?" George Lucas quickly appeased Yin Jun. "Besides, my price is really not high. You don't know how poor I am every year The maintenance cost alone is millions of dollars, which forced me to work hard to make money. It ’s awful! You should help me, okay? "

He was really interested at this time.

Since Yin Jun mentioned it, it must be interesting to buy.

Otherwise, Yin Jun will not specifically invite him to dinner today.

It's just that what Yin Jun wants is Lucasfilm, or industrial light and magic, and now he only sells such a small working group. Of course, Yin Jun is not interested.

But Yin Jun has always been very generous. Maybe this animation production team can get a high price on Yin Jun?

"I will give you another chance to say the price you really want." Yin Jun shook his head. "George, if you shout at the price again, I will not buy it."

"Good!"

George Lucas' eyes kept rolling, and he began to think about it.

He even put down his knife and fork, thinking about it.

"Twelve million dollars!" George Lucas made a pitiful look ~ www.novelhall.com ~ Jun, I tell you, they are really talented, if I have encountered difficulties, I am really reluctant ... … "

While showing reluctance, his eyes were red.

Yin Jun's heart is funny, this guy is absolutely wasteful not to act.

Only 10 million dollars was sold, but 12 million was sold to myself.

But the teenager did not care too much about him.

Sometimes people get along with each other, and losing is a blessing.

If you care about it, it is not easy to have good relationships.

George Lucas has a high status in Hollywood. He has always been a good friend of Yin Jun, and there is no need to make trouble for $ 2 million.

"I'm really scared of you!" The teenager sighed. "If it's someone else, I'm sure I will only give 10 million at most ... You are crying in front of me, what can I do?"

"Yay!!"

George Lucas immediately rejoiced, "Thank you, thank you, Jun, you are such a good person! Rest assured, this is a good business! You can't lose money!"

The teenager smiled bitterly on the surface and shrugged: "Hope as you said, then wish us a happy business?"

"it is good!"

George Lucas quickly raised his glass and touched Yin Jun's drink glass. "Thank you!"

On his fat face, he smiled like a flower.

But if he waits to see Pixar in the future, I wonder if he will regret it?

Yin Jun was suddenly looking forward, looking forward to seeing his expression 30 years later.

At that time, this shrewd director and businessman must have a very interesting expression!

Therefore, taking advantage of a moment does not mean that you can always take advantage.

Sometimes eating a small loss, but in exchange for great benefits later.
