Wang Xiaocong also stopped smiling and his expression became serious.
Yang Mi had worked with Zhou Xing last time, so she knew something about his straightforward character... and it wasn't a surprise.
After she pondered for a moment, she said: "I need 500 million."
"500 million?"
Wang Xiaocong was a little shocked when he heard this.
This amount is insignificant to his father, but considering the assets in his hands, it is indeed a large sum.
"Mimi... what is the situation of your company? Even if something like this happens, it is impossible to need 500 million to fill it. How much is the total valuation of your company?"
Wang Xiaocong asked with a frown.
Yang Mi smiled helplessly: "After Jiaxing Media landed on the New Third Board last year, it raised a financing plan of 228 million yuan with a valuation of 1.5 billion. Later, it introduced Shangshi Pictures at a price of 300 million, but the signing was
You must all know about the gambling agreement, right?"
Zhou Xing and Wang Xiaocong nodded slightly.
Last year, Jiaxing Media borrowed money from Changan Tongda and landed on the New Third Board.
This capital operation on the New Third Board can be said to be textbook level.
People still talk about it to this day.
"Originally I thought it was just ordinary financing and betting, but later I discovered that this was luring wolves into the house. Their appetite was very big, and their goal was not shares and profits. They wanted to swallow up my company completely."
Yang Mi started to explain.
She has always been a very sober and smart person. She wanted to take the initiative into her own hands, so in 2012, she decided to be her own boss and established her own studio.
But there are so many studios in the entertainment industry, and Yang Mi Studio only has one female star, and the others are staff.
Despite this, she insisted on opening her own studio.
It wasn't until 2015 that Yang Mi's idea changed again. She realized that the studio could not just serve her. She should start a company and sign other artists, so that she could truly transform from a traffic star to a capital investor.
So Yang Mi took her agent Zeng Jia and assistant Zhao Ruoyao to start her own company, Jiaxing Media.
It was originally a drama between three women. During the development period, they found Li Juan in the investment circle.
Li Juan worked at PricewaterhouseCoopers for ten years, first as financial director and then as secretary of the board of directors, helping Jiaxing Media accurately control the pace of financing.
From the establishment of the company in Jiaxing, to the completion of industrial and commercial registration, to the borrowing of Changan Tongda to list on the New Third Board, Li Juan has been responsible for everything.
Although the company has... except Yang Mi, there are no other stars.
The whole company looks like an empty shell, light and airy...
If you want to sign contracts with other celebrities, you will need financial support.
In order to revitalize the company...she made a bold decision, that is, she chose to sign a famous gambling agreement with Shangshi Pictures, and planned to sell 20% of Jiaxing's shares to Shangshi at a price of 300 million.
The condition is that the company's net profit in Jiaxing reaches 310 million within three years from 2015 to 2017.
Otherwise, Shangshi will repurchase the Jiaxing shares at an annual interest rate of 15%.
In other words, if Yang Mi fails, she will face huge compensation and will spend her whole life working for Shangshi.
This is a life-threatening gamble. Few people in the entertainment industry dare to sign a gambling agreement, and even fewer people succeed.
But it is precisely because of this.
This made her status in Jiaxing shaky.
Shangshi Pictures never thought about letting Yang Mi complete this bet from the beginning to the end.
as capital.
After investing 300 million, they want a greater return.
Not only do they want to swallow up Jiaxing Media completely, but they also want Yang Mi to stay as a cash cow for them.
So they not only blocked Yang Mi's gambling plan in every possible way.
They even joined forces with other shareholders in the company and began to use insidious, co-opting and suppressing methods, which they used with great proficiency.
Li Juan himself has great ambitions. With the support of Shangshi Pictures, he began to rise to prominence and gradually controlled the company's voice.
Zeng Jia and Zhao Ruoyao are two close partners of Yang Mi.
In the face of interests, he chose to betray Yang Mi without hesitation.
The three of them are in a line of their own.
There are three pillars within the company.
As the founder of the company, Yang Mi is also the backbone...but she is the weakest party, and she gradually begins to lose control and voice over the company.
There is a wolf in front and a tiger behind.
Yang Mi's position is in jeopardy.
Now that the divorce scandal has suddenly broken out, the shareholders will not miss this excellent opportunity. They choose to sell their shares because the company has been damaged, cash out and leave, leaving Yang Mi to bear the loss.
This move turns retreat into advance.
Yang Mi was completely forced into a desperate situation.
The bet has not yet been completed, and she simply does not have the ability to spend such a large amount of funds to repurchase their shares.
Besides, if they chose to leave, how could Yang Mi complete the bet on her own?
There is now only more than a year left before the three-year period of the gambling agreement.
These people also know it very well.
Then, Yang Mi had to sell her shares to fill this vacancy.
As Yang Mi reduces its holdings... its shares are getting smaller and smaller.
Then she will eventually change from a shareholder to their wage earner.
The bet cannot be completed.
Yang Mi will be played to death by them, and will end up being kicked out of Jiaxing Media, and will bear all the debts and losses alone.
She herself knew the outcome...but she was helpless.
This is a conspiracy, and it can't be fought without bloodshed!
Yang Mi had no choice but to ask Wang Xiaocong and Zhou Xing for help.
Even if the shares are sold, it is... impossible to give them to the company's shareholders. Once it gets into their mouths, it will be a piece of meat that will never come back.
It will only make her situation more difficult.
"The company's market value this year is 3.5 billion, which has more than doubled compared to last year, so I am prepared to take out 17% of the shares in exchange for this 500 million investment."
Yang Mi confidently said: "Once this capital is filled in, I will have a lot of movies and TV dramas coming online next year. By then... the company's shares will only be more valuable than now. You choose at that time
I can accept cashing out and leaving, or continuing to hold shares."
Holding shares in Jiaxing Media is indeed a sure-fire way to make money without losing money.
Otherwise, those shareholders would not try their best to continuously expropriate shares from Yang Mi.
"Seventeen percent..."
Zhou Xing spoke up at this time: "As far as I know, the total shares you hold are less than 10%..."
On the way to pick up Wang Xiaocong at the airport.
He called Deng Haoyang and asked him to obtain information about Jiaxing Media and the proportions of each shareholder.
Investing is a science.
No matter how rich you are, you can't just listen to Yang Mi's words. You also need certain information to support it.
According to the investigation.
Yang Mi's shareholding ratio is very low among the team, less than 10%, while Zeng Jia, Zhao Ruoyao and Li Juan continue to hold a total share of 70%.
Has absolute controlling interest.
"Although I only have a few shares in my personal hands, the shares in my name are more than these."
Yang Mi smiled slightly: "Twenty of the shares held by Zeng Jia, Zhao Ruoyao and Li Juan came from me, but I did not choose to give them to them, but only let them hold them on their behalf."
She is not Yang Bailao. She has dedicated herself willingly and has been able to stay in the entertainment industry for so long. She also has countermeasures.
Although they are as close as sisters, she also left behind a backup plan.
Just to meet this situation.
Now it seems... her move was indeed just right.
Zhou Xing's brows widened, it was reasonable to say this.
Otherwise, with less than 10% of the shares, how could Yang Mi have persisted in Jiaxing for so long? It was before he was reborn that the news of her being kicked out came out.
"Mr. Zhou, principal... I wonder if you can accept this investment?"
Yang Mi asked.
Wang Xiaocong looked at Zhou Xing and asked: "Old Zhou, what do you think?"
He was really moved.
It's not because of Yang Mi, it's just this business, the profit is extremely objective. No matter if Jiaxing Media stabilizes next year, he cashes out and leaves, making a huge profit.
Or you can directly hold this share and use it as a springboard to directly enter the entertainment industry.
Wang Xiaocong is obsessed with the entertainment industry. From the beginning of his banana project, he made no secret of his intentions.
Zhou Xing did not reply, but looked at Yang Mi and asked: "Excluding the shares in your hand and 20% of Shangshi Pictures, it means that there are still at least 100% in the hands of other individual shareholders.
Fifty percent of the shares?”
"That's right."
Yang Mi nodded: "To be precise, it's fifty-two percent."
“Are they currently thinking of selling their shares?”
Yang Mi hesitated for a moment and then said: "Not yet. Li Juan has always wanted to cash out part of the money and make other investments. However, she doesn't have many shares in her hands. She will not act until she can get the shares from me.
."
"Old Zhou... do you have any thoughts on the shares held by those shareholders?"
Wang Xiaocong asked in shock.
"Um."
Zhou Xing did not hide it and admitted it frankly.
Compared with this small amount of shares... he invested hundreds of millions back and forth, and he and Wang Xiaocong invested money together, so he really couldn't arouse much interest.ъìqυgΕtv.℃ǒΜ
What he wants more is to eat up the entire Jiaxing and get a controlling stake.
It is precisely because of this that he appears here today.
"But... what those people said about cashing out and leaving is all false."
Wang Xiaocong reminded: "It is not that easy to get shares from them."
"They did this just to make me give in."
Yang Mi also echoed.
Zhou Xing, however, looked calm, but there was an unquestionable tone in his voice: "If it's fake...then find a way to make it real."
