Chapter 218 Starbucks

Ordered a cup of caramel macchiato and sat next to the small round table in Starbucks Cafe.

Han Xuan found that there were not many such cafes that could be seen everywhere in later generations now, so he asked casually: "How is Starbucks now?"

"Starbucks? There seem to be several stores in San Francisco, and this is the first time I drink it." Thomas's butt was only half a chair, and he seemed to be ready to jump up at any time. His years of failure made him so cautious that he was paranoid.

"waiter."

Han Xuan waved, and they were the only one in the store, and the air conditioner was still on. It was extremely rare in 1994. It would be nice to have an electric fan in an ordinary small cafe.

"What's wrong, sir."

The service lady walked out from behind the counter, "Do you don't like the taste? Sorry! I just opened yesterday and I'm not familiar with it."

"No, I want to ask how many stores there are in Starbucks like this?"

“There is another one in downtown Providence, so is it okay to taste?”

Han Xuan glanced at the silver brand on her chest and said with a smile: "It's delicious, what about the whole United States, Miss Lily."

"Boy, are you from school too? You often see you when you go to the Sos convenience store to buy things."

Lily smiled and said, "I work part-time here. The last meeting seemed to introduce more than 1,000 branches across the United States. I don't remember it specifically. On average, seven stores open every day. Don't look at it as small, it was listed on Nasdaq the year before yesterday."

"Thank you, Uncle Gabriel is smoking outside. Please make a cup of coffee for him. You can know any of them. You can know the owner of the convenience store."

Lily looks very happy, and it is another good opportunity to practice, "Then let's latte coffee"

I took a small notebook to help me sort out my memories and found a note with Starbucks' name. This kind of coffee shop is so familiar that I have seen it and missed it.

After turning a few pages, he put it in his pocket and muttered: "The homeless man picked it up and bought it, and he probably could become a millionaire..."

Three Mercedes-Benzs were parked one after another at the entrance of Brown University. An extended Mercedes-Benz in the middle could be six meters long. Bodyguards scattered around and looked carefully. Lopez opened the door and asked the whole family to get out of the car.

It’s not that they are showing off. It’s that the US’s public security is indeed bad. Nine presidents have been assassinated in history, four of whom have died.

In a sense, the benefits that may be obtained by assassinating Mr. Han may be greater, so he has been equipped with eight-person bodyguard teams all year round, and there will be more additional places where there are many people. Now his son and daughter-in-law are also equipped with bodyguards. There is no way, and he is still a biological child if he is not successful. There is only one person, so he will hold it back if he is unhappy.

The posture scared many people. The students stopped and watched at the school gate. The school security guard came over to inquire. The old man dialed a number and handed him the phone. Then the security guard turned his head to disperse the students. It might be Principal Gregorian's order.

Han Xuan saw his parents and the others, put down his cup and walked to the door and shouted: "Here!"

When the boy heard this, he turned around and said to go to Starbucks.

"What are you drinking? Give me a drink, so you don't have to go to class in the afternoon?" the old man asked with a smile.

"School will start in a few days, and there are not many classes." Han Xuan said and looked at Lily, "There is business again, and you can do whatever you want outside."

"How about using this coffee in a franchise store? I want to buy some shares."

Raise the cup to show to my grandfather.

"Starbucks' expansion method is very interesting. It only sells directly and does not join. It is listed on Nasdaq."

"If it weren't for the large investment in convenience stores. I also wanted to open a store by myself. Centralized management can reduce operating costs, and the management is very smart. It tastes good, just buy it. If it's all, I can try selling it."

Mr. Han snatched his grandson's coffee and took a sip and said.

"Why are you all here?"

"Can't you come?" Guo's mother asked, "Hurry up and drink it. I've been to your school for a while. I haven't been here for half a year. You haven't washed your face in the morning and your mouth is dark."

"It's okay, I've been teased."

Han Xuan quickly changed the topic and said publicly: "I just met with Hasbro's CEO Mr. Allen Hassenfield. I want to acquire Hasbro and add to Marvel Comics' peripheral channels."

“He called me and seemed to be frightened when he heard the tone and asked me if it was true.

If you invest one billion to make movies at once, you won’t have that much money. Not only him, I was also shocked. If those superheroes made movies, they would be as profitable as you said, Hasbro would definitely be able to buy them.

I don’t know where this radical business method was learned, so college teachers will teach these things?"

Guo Muzhou laughed and scolded, frightened and seemed to be a little used to it now. He thought all the way, thinking about it, thinking at least it would not lose money. Hasbro itself has the ability to make money, and at most it will take back the cost a few years later.

"He helped you get through it. Hasenfield seemed to be interested in the proposal and said that he would come up with a discussion next time he held the board meeting and give me an answer later.

However, he wants Hasbro and Marvel Comics to cross-hold shares, which is probably uneasy. The market value of Marvel is 400 million US dollars, and Hasbro swaps shares with an equal value of 700 million US dollars."

"The abacus is pretty good. Marvel has not merged with Dimen Pictures, right?" Han Xuan asked. The two companies have similar development potential. After thinking about it, I didn't see the problem. Taking down the controlling stake is equivalent to changing the left hand to the right hand, and it is still his own.

"Dimen Pictures is the parent company and operates independently on both sides."

"That's telling him that it's not the copyright of the movie. The copyright of the peripheral products is left at Marvel, and the investment of another 100 million yuan in Marvel Comics will be invested in. The two companies will be exchanged according to the same market value, provided that they sell Hasbro shares to me before they can agree to let him get on our car."

"It is estimated that he will not sell 50% of the shares, at most 35% is about the same." Guo Muzhou said.

"Someone is on the way to Providence. Hasbro has invested all profits in acquisitions in recent years. The information shows that Hasbro's shareholders have not seen dividends in five years.

Not all shareholders like Berkshire Hathaway's compound interest investment method, and they can see premium cash. I believe many Hasbro shareholders will be happy to buy them for me."

Han Xuan smiled brightly, which is why he has confidence in controlling Hasbro.

“Good done.”

The old man praised the progress made in joining the franchise recently, the prospects are predictable, and his mentality has become more calm. Compared with those money, he values ​​his grandson's gradually mature thinking and business operation methods.

"I read the news and Chicago has also held an auction. How is the situation?"

Chicago's population is second only to New York and Los Angeles. It has a population of more than 2 million in the city, and more than 7 million residents in the entire metropolitan area and suburbs. Its status is self-evident.

"It's not bad, the economic level there is slightly worse than that in New York. This time, two hundred and eighty branches were arranged in Chicago.

Assistant Joseph called me and sold me more than $69 million, with an average of $247,200 per place, which is even more crazy than New York. With a deposit of 30,000 per company, I received more than $77 million.

Next, we will start across the United States, striving to end all within next month, let towns with too few populations or remote areas be spared first. The think tanks expect to accommodate 19,000 units in the United States, but transportation facilities are built at 8,000 units, so we can only wait for the next batch to increase and come again in two months.

There are not enough auctioneers at Fusubi and Christie's, so they can only be pulled from other auction houses, otherwise they will be faster."

"It is impossible for small towns to get such a high price. Based on the average of 150,000, which means that just joining, the company will get 1.2 billion US dollars?"
