Chapter 22 Settled
To be honest, 15 million is a bit stressful for Lei Yunrong now.
Lei Yunrong had previously borrowed 60 million from HSBC, but after purchasing the Lu Haitong Building and several other theaters and establishing New Art City Pictures, plus some of the company's own expenses, the 60 million was already left. Not much more.
The total adds up to less than two million, which is a drop in the bucket compared to fifteen million.
Therefore, Lei Yunrong thought of Shen Bi again.
Now the international gold price has risen again. Compared with less than 90 US dollars per ounce when I first bought it, it has increased by at least 50%.
You should be able to loan out some more money by using this gold as collateral, and this does not pose much risk to HSBC. I believe HSBC will readily agree to the loan.
It just so happened that I could communicate and exchange feelings with Shen Bi, a ghost guy. Although Lei Yunrong rejected this person in his heart, in the adult world, interests come first, and no matter how unhappy people are, they must still greet them with a smile.
Otherwise, if you want to gain benefits from others later, why will they care about you?
Lei Yunrong specially bought a Longines watch as a gift and had a good exchange with Shen Bi.
Shen Bi was indeed very happy and agreed to lend Lei Yunrong another 20 million, using that batch of gold as collateral.
In fact, HSBC is not afraid of risks. Even if the international gold price drops to a loss later, the remaining money will be repaid to the bank first, not to mention that the Lei family has an industry like Kowloon Construction.
The reason why Lei Yunrong borrowed 20 million yuan was because he was afraid that he would need money for something else in the future, so he simply borrowed more to save trouble.
As a high-end customer of HSBC, the loan can be disbursed in a few days, just waiting for Liu Dong and his wife to discuss it.
As for whether his father Lei Juehua will agree to Lei Yunrong spending 15 million to buy a record company, Lei Yunrong is not worried at all.
In the past few months, Lei Juehua has not gone anywhere. He has always stayed in Xiangjiang and occasionally went to the company. He witnessed Lei Yunrong handling the company in an orderly manner.
Moreover, Lei Yunrong has already explained his plans for culture and entertainment to Lei Juehua, and with the support of that batch of gold, Lei Juehua will definitely not object.
Now that the money has been received, we are just waiting for the results from Liu Dong's side.
Within three days, when Lei Yunrong was a little anxious, Liu Dong suddenly asked Lei Yunrong to meet.
Lei Yunrong knew that this meeting would determine whether Lei Yunrong could acquire entertainment records. If Liu Dong and his wife disagreed with each other, Lei Yunrong would not agree no matter how much he pestered others in the future. .
This time we were not at Liu Dong’s house, but at the Peninsula Hotel.
The Peninsula Hotel is indeed the most famous hotel in Xiangjiang. Many people will meet up at the Peninsula Hotel to discuss matters. In addition, Shao Daheng also likes to have afternoon tea here, so many celebrities also like to go here. This also makes the Peninsula Hotel The popularity and popularity have reached a new level.
It made Lei Yunrong want to buy this hotel if he had money in the future, although it was not easy.
After the two met and sat down, they chatted with each other for a few words. Liu Dong went directly to the topic, his face became more serious, and he said:
"Ah Rong, we as a couple also had a detailed discussion, and after careful consideration, we decided to sell the entertainment record to you."
When Liu Dong was about to speak, Lei Yunrong looked at Liu Dong nervously and expectantly. As soon as he finished speaking, Lei Yunrong continued excitedly:
"Thank you so much, Uncle Liu, I will definitely develop Entertainment Records."
"Arong, don't be too happy too soon. In business or in business, the price of 15 million mentioned last time cannot be less than one penny."
"No problem, Uncle Liu, I have prepared the money in the past few days. I will transfer the money immediately after signing the contract."
"That's no problem."
Speaking of this, Liu Dongyou paused and said:
"Arong, I also have a merciless request. You should also know that entertainment records are our hard work, so I hope that after transferring the company to you, my wife and I will still want to work in the company for a few more years.
, I don’t know if you agree with it, Ah Rong.”
Lei Yunrong was a little surprised, but it was a good thing for Lei Yunrong. Historically, entertainment records began to take advantage of wireless this year and began to reach their peak.
"Of course it's no problem, Uncle Liu. It would be great if you and aunt could continue to stay. Whatever I ask for, it's because you are helping me."
Hearing what Lei Yunrong said, Liu Dong's expression softened significantly.
In fact, Liu Dong was a little reluctant to sell his entertainment records, but this was the only time his son asked his family for support when he grew up.
In the past, Liu Dong and his wife had always been very satisfied with their son. He had excelled in both essays and studies since childhood, received a full scholarship from a prestigious American school, and worked in a large company after graduation.
My only regret is that I am not interested in music and do not want to come back and continue my career.
So this time his son really needed money to talk to him, and Lei Yunrong could give fifteen million, which was a lot. In the end, he was indeed moved by Lei Yunrong's sincerity, and Liu Dong was talking to him
After discussion with his wife, he decided to sell the record company to Lei Yunrong.
As for the last request, it is true that Liu Dong and his wife cannot completely give up on entertainment records, not to mention that they think they can still do it for a few more years.
Now hearing what Lei Yunrong said, Liu Dong felt relieved.
After the business was settled, Lei Yunrong was in a good mood and listened with great interest to Liu Dong talking about the glorious history of entertainment records and the hardships of starting a business.
During this period, Lei Yunrong also learned why Liu Dong relented and transferred the company to him.
Although the computer industry is still a blue ocean in terms of both hardware and software, Lei Yunrong has never heard of Liu Dong's son's name, so obviously his business venture must have failed.
But Lei Yunrong's heart moved, and he secretly remembered Liu Dong's son in his heart.
Liu Dong seemed to feel that he was really going to lose the company, so he kept talking to Lei Yunrong all morning, and Lei Yunrong also listened patiently all morning.
Until it was almost time for lunch, Liu Dong and Lei Yunrong had lunch at the Peninsula Hotel and got very drunk before going home.
Liu Dong was also a decisive person. Since he had made up his mind to transfer the company, he did not hesitate to contact Lei Yunrong the next day to discuss the company's acquisition.
With the big framework already decided, the negotiations between the two parties were progressing very quickly, and Lei Yunrong was able to let go of some innocuous minor issues.
So within three days, the two parties reached an acquisition agreement.
When Liu Dong and his wife signed their names, the stone in Lei Yunrong's heart finally fell, and he immediately ordered the finance department to transfer 15 million funds to their account.
