Just as Huaying Han Shantong learned the news and rushed over, Prudential Insurance still objected to the price of acquiring AIA. He hoped to reduce the acquisition amount to about 300 million US dollars. If the CEO Robert Benmerch was responsible for this matter, it would be easy to say. As long as there is a suitable reason, the price will be reduced. Anyway, the government is waiting to collect the money. Unfortunately, there is another chairman of the board of directors, Harvey Globo, who restricted him. He refused Prudential's request without any room for negotiation.

Similarly, AIA's direct refusal to let the Prudential board reject the acquisition. The day after the acquisition failed, Prudential's former president, who had been in charge of Prudential's Asia business for 11 years, chose to resign. Things are moving in a direction that is beneficial to the Four Elephant Fund.

Although the matter became clearer, Zhou Shi could not pass immediately. He negotiated with Gao Xiqing for several consecutive days. After Han Santong arrived, he also learned about Miramax in detail. At the same time, Wu Kebo from Orange Sky Jiahe also took the opportunity to come to the door and seek opportunities for cooperation. Huayi and Bona were unwilling to fall behind, and they even knew the news.

"This time, Miramax sold part of its equity at a valuation of one billion US dollars. In addition to the corresponding equity acquisition funds, we also have to provide me with a loan according to the investment amount one to one. This is the basic condition. If we are willing to accept this condition, we will continue, and if we are not willing, it will be fine. In addition, I want to retain the controlling equity, that is, transfer up to about 45% of Miramax shares." Zhou Shi

"No wonder so many people know the news this time, so that's it!" Someone muttered to himself, although he was dissatisfied with such conditions, he did not directly refute it.

"Mr. Zhou, are you or Xingguang Film and Television retaining the controlling stake?" Bona Yudong

"This has nothing to do with Xingguang, they have no preferential treatment. It is not directly controlled by me, but I control an industrial fund, but I basically don't care about the specific operations." Zhou Shi

"Since that's the case, how can we guarantee his value?" Wu Kebo

"This is the matter of all shareholders and the company's management, so there is no need to ask me! I only guarantee that Miramax is worth the money now, as for the future," Zhou Shi did not say, mmp, do you still need your mother-in-law to guarantee to have a child after marrying a wife? Isn't this your own business?

"Mr. Zhou, your conditions are too harsh. We buy this share at double the price. Can the loan ratio be less?" Wang Zhongjun

"Yes!" Zhou Shi

"Can you only have half the loan?" Wang Zhongjun

"You can go find other companies to cooperate." Zhou Shibafeng said calmly without moving.

"You can see Miramax's performance last year and the first quarter of this year. If it weren't for me, who would have the opportunity to invest in it at a valuation of one billion US dollars. As long as Miramax is promoted to go public, I think a valuation of $1.5 billion should not be a problem!" Zhou Shi

"In addition, domestic investors, except Huaying, only have one place." Zhou Shi

"What if Huaying doesn't invest?"

"TV parent company), Shanghai Film and Changying can be both, and the important thing is that the status of a state-owned enterprise is to prepare for the next thing!" Zhou Shi, these companies are the only two shareholders of overseas film importers and banks in the country.

"What's the matter?" Han Santong

"Huaying can designate a company to cooperate. You two have no more than 15% of the shares. After calling the margin, you can know our next action plan! But if you do not cooperate and there is no leak, the margin will not be returned until this time next year. Of course, in that case, we will compensate for the interest loss." Zhou Shi

"You don't say anything, how can we cooperate?" Han Santong

"Huatu prepared billions of dollars for me without asking anything. Isn't my personal reputation worth billions of dollars?" Zhou Shi

"It's not that we don't believe in Mr. Zhou, it's mainly because there is no precedent for such things." Yu Dong

"It's there now, forget it, I've said everything I should say, you can choose it yourself!" Zhou Shi didn't say anything nonsense and left the conference room directly

Seeing Zhou Shi leave, everyone sighed, and it was difficult to do what they thought.

"If Mr. Han doesn't want to invest, can he help me win these shares? I am willing to pay a service fee to Huaying." Zhang Zhao

"You can't be a double act, right?" Wang Zhongjun

"Haha~~" Zhang Zhao didn't explain, pretending to be profound and smiled. Only such a fool would think like this. A billionaire with a billionaire with most of the industries in China, and he deliberately called the bigwigs in the domestic film and television industry to fool him. Does Zhou Shi have any brain problems?

"Does Mr. Zhang know what Mr. Zhou has plans?" Han Santong

"I really don't know this, but after Mr. Zhou returned to China, he went to Japan and then returned to the United States. Moreover, he has many industries, so it's too difficult to guess what exactly." Zhang Zhao honestly said that no matter what they were worried about, Zhang Zhao had great confidence in Zhou Shi.

"Does he have no money?" Wang Zhongjun

"Maybe, maybe it's because I'm short of money." Zhang Zhao said without sincerity, but he was at the core. If it weren't for the lack of money, Zhou Shi wouldn't have used such a troublesome routine.

According to Miramax's results last year, the box office in Twilight will not be much worse. Next, there will be a series of movies such as "The Hunger Games", "Source Code", "The Legend of the Demons", and "Body". As for small and medium-sized costs and agency stores, there are also many, and they are still seeking cooperation with Christopher Nolan. By this year, as long as they go public, the market value will be at least 1.5 billion and 2 billion US dollars.

Zhou Shi's success overseas has stimulated a large number of ambitious people in China. Not to mention projects with high probability of success, even if there are high risks, there will still be investments. Unigroup has confidence in investing in Hynix, which is beyond Zhou Shi's expectations. He did not have much confidence at first, but now it seems that Zhao Weiguo's probability of success is still very high. The assets merged by Miramax and Dingfeng Entertainment are a high-quality asset, or Zhou Shi believes in Robert Freman's ability, and the success of Dingfeng Entertainment in his previous life is a proof. A person who does not lack publicity channels and has excellent production abilities cannot run this film company well, so it can only be said that he is not lucky.

Zhou Shi soon received good news. Huaying Korean Santong decided to invest in Miramax, but the partner he chose was Huayi Brothers. He did not choose Starlight Film and Television, probably because he was worried that the two parties would cheat Huaying together. If this is true, I have to say that he was thinking too much.

"Mr. Zhou, I worked so hard and I have gained nothing. Do you want to compensate me?" Zhang Zhao joked at Zhou Shi's company.

"Okay! You allied with Disney!" Zhou Shi

"Ah~Really?" Zhang Zhao

"Fake it, I can't decide on such a thing." Zhou Shi threw him down and started his next action.
