Chapter 2176: An Undeniable Chip

After Xiao Qi took away the shares of Alibaba and Japan's YAHOO, the market value of YAHOO naturally dropped a lot.

Although YAHOO has been privatized by Xiao Qi, there is still a valuation in general.

Everyone has not realized how valuable the assets that Xiao Qi took away are, and after going through the lowest point of the financial crisis, the value of YAHOO has rebounded a bit, so the market value of YAHOO has reached about 8 billion US dollars .

But taking advantage of the fire and looting has always been what the capital market is best at, and Xiao Qi often does this kind of thing, and now others have also used this trick on Xiao Qi.

Although Xiao Qi didn't care about the development of YAHOO, and was even willing to sell YAHOO earlier, but selling it at such a low price would really damage Xiao Qi's reputation as a genius boy, so he has been delaying.

How could Xiao Qi sell it to Paul Allen for $3.8 billion without even selling it for $5.5 billion?

Bloomberg obviously knew this too, but he still said leisurely: "Of course, Alan is only willing to pay 3.8 billion in cash, but he owns all the shares of AMC theaters and plans to transfer them to you for $1. All in all, what do you think of the price?"

AMC theaters?

Isn't this the second largest theater chain in the United States that Wanda will acquire in the future?

Regal, the largest theater chain in the United States, has 6,210 screens, and AMC, the second largest, has 5,010 screens, which is already very good.

It's just that in the past seven or eight years, because of the continuous expansion and the huge pressure of competition, they have been losing money and the benefits are not good.

In 2007, AMC planned to go public, but because of continuous losses, it withdrew it in disgrace; the second time it planned to go public was in 2010, but that time it was directly robbed by Wanda before the final IPO process bought it.

Wanda really picked up a bargain. Not only did it take AMC to the market, but also because of the increase in ticket prices for blockbuster 3D and IMAX movies. This has greatly enriched the theater's profits, making AMC a money-making tool in Wanda's hands. Although the income is not much, it is always stable and has a strong symbolic meaning.

Xiao Qi remembers that in 2012, Wanda spent a total price of 3.1 billion U.S. dollars to buy AMC.

However, Xiao Qi really didn't know that AMC was Paul Allen's property.

Of course, AMC theaters now don't count as $3.1 billion. But at least it is worth 2 billion US dollars.

3.8 billion plus 2 billion, that is 5.8 billion US dollars, which is equivalent to a price of 72.5% of the market value. Although Xiao Qi's goal has not been reached, the meaning is completely different.

The significance of AMC Cinemas to Xiao Qi cannot be simply calculated based on the amount of money. It is the same as the symbolic meaning of making Wanda Cinemas the world’s largest cinema chain after Wanda bought the second largest cinema chain in the United States. Kiwi Cinemas can swallow AMC. In that case, the Kiwi cinema chain no longer needs to buy European theater chains, and can directly become the world's number one theater chain.

Seeing that "Avatar" will be released at the end of this year, the era of 3D and IMAX is coming. The movie theater chain, one of the important links in the movie entertainment industry, is bound to reap great harvest.

Buy it now. It's not just about money, the status of the queen sister will be completely different in the future. Even Hollywood companies and superstars want to curry favor with her, just like domestic companies and stars now.

The properties that Xiao Qi bought for each of his wives are basically in place now, and he will not deliberately add anything, but if he encounters a good opportunity, Xiao Qi does not mind buying more properties for his beloved wives .

Look now. It should have been an unexpected surprise.

But, how did Paul Allen know he would be interested in AMC?

Xiao Qi asked Bloomberg this question.

"You think us old men only know how to spend time and drink?" Bloomberg replied with a smile. "The last time you entrusted Tong Wencong to acquire the Canadian IMAX company, it attracted the attention of many people. As a result, this company finally fell into the hands of a girl in Huaguo. At the same time, you also formed a company with more than 2,000 people for that girl. Movie theaters with multiple screens, let everyone know that you are very interested in it. Buying and selling should pay attention to what you like. Since Alan has this bargaining chip in his hand, why don't you use it? What a pity? After all, the United States is the largest film market in the world."

While talking, Bloomberg looked at Qian Niu, and found that Qian Niu didn't react with jealousy, thinking that Xiao Qi's tricks on women are really powerful.

Although Xiao Qi had already accepted the price in his heart, he couldn't let Paul Allen raise the price, he had to increase the asking price himself.

"The scale of AMC is good, but as far as I know, it has been losing money in the past few years, right? The loss in the past two years has reached as high as 100 million U.S. dollars?" Xiao Qi said lightly, "Mr. Getting YAHOO and a good reputation, and being able to dispose of the loss-making company in his hand, all the benefits have been taken by him, dare I be the fool who was taken in?"

"But no one dares to treat you as a fool." Bloomberg laughed dumbly. "You can bargain in business. I'm just talking about Alan's thoughts. If you have any requirements, you can ask him."

"Actually, I don't have anything I want, but I heard that Mr. Allen owns a ranch in New Zealand. I like Middle-earth in Lord of the Rings very much, so if Mr. Allen can give up his love, I want to buy it. It." Xiao Qi said, "In addition, I am also very interested in Mr. Cameron's 3D technology. I know that Mr. Alan has some shares in Cameron Pace Group. I also want to buy it."

"Okay, I will convey it to you." Bloomberg nodded slightly. He didn't know the value of these two things, but he thought Alan would handle it well.

Don't look at Alan as a playboy, but his abilities and contacts are very strong. It should be a very good harvest to be able to make friends with Xiao Qi through buying YAHOO.

After Bloomberg left first, Xiao Qi stood up, picked up the steak plate next to him, and with a fork, he ate the cold steak in two bites.

"Wow, why did you eat my food?" Qian Niu didn't know when she woke up, she stood up, pouted and stared at Xiao Qi dissatisfied.

"You stupid woman, you haven't even thanked me for saving you, and you're still struggling with me eating your food?" Xiao Qi was also dissatisfied with her, and slapped her plump place, "Look at you, how long are you?" How much meat did you eat? If you eat more meat, do you want fans to see a fat pig female star?"

"Who is fat?" Qian Niu was furious again when she heard the words, she turned around in front of Xiao Qi, "Look, I have a perfect figure, can Taylor's figure be as good as mine? Besides, there is no meat on the ass, then Does it look good? What is your appreciation level?"

In her rage, Qian Niu forgot that Xiao Qi had taken advantage of her again just now, and she only wanted to ask for an explanation for her proud appearance.

Xiao Qi laughed when he heard the words, "Miss Kasha, it seems that you are very energetic, and you don't look frightened at all! Originally, I planned to give you some of the 200 million US dollars in compensation from Simon, but it seems that you don't need it anymore. "

"you dare!"

Kaisha was shocked all over, her very pretty face was almost pressed against Xiao Qi's, and she said word by word: "This is my money! If you dare to be corrupt, I will fight with you!!"

okay.

Seeing her so excited, the two bodyguards who were standing at the door quickly retreated quietly, and gently closed the door.

These two bastards!

Xiao Qi didn't have time to swear, so suddenly, Qian Niu pushed hard, and pushed herself to the sofa to sit down.

Immediately afterwards, she threw herself down again and landed on Xiao Qi's body.

Qian Niu is a very expectant beauty, with such close contact, Xiao Qi, who has never tasted meat these days, reacted naturally.

However, Qian Niu didn't wear much clothes, so she felt it right away.

Originally, she was going to threaten Xiao Qi for a while, but when such an embarrassing situation happened, she was so frightened that she wanted to get up immediately, but she didn't grasp the strength well, slipped and fell into Xiao Qi's arms again.

"Ouch~"

When her head touched Xiao Qi's chin, she immediately cried out in pain, and tears came out in the blink of an eye.

Now, she didn't even have the strength to move.

"I said, I've never seen a woman as stupid as you." Seeing her tearful eyes, Xiao Qi didn't find it funny, so he helped her up and let her sit aside, "I said little Qian girl, Why do you want so much money? 200 million US dollars, you are not afraid to support it? Didn't you think of giving me half of the hero?"

"What is 200 million US dollars? If you buy a villa in Hollywood, a cruise ship, or a plane, you'll be gone!" When the money was mentioned, Qian Niu had no strength to refute Xiao Qi, and she immediately came up with another one. God turned around, "But I don't spend money, I keep all of it at home, counting money every day to play!"

Xiao Qi was shocked.

It took a while to wake up, "Qian Niu, you are a big singer, why don't you be so worthless?"

"You can manage it~~" Speaking of 200 million US dollars, Qian Niu regained her spirits, turned over and sat on Xiao Qi's body, and looked down at him, "I can tell you, it's really, really Don't take my money, or sister, I'll kill you in one go, let's see how you live the rest of your life! Do you know?"

"knew!"

Xiao Qi was speechless.

Dare to feel that this girl wanted money rather than life, so she escaped from the tiger's den and dared to threaten the world's richest man who saved her. I really don't know how poor this girl was a few years ago! (to be continued ~^~)
