Chapter 2467 Forever Disney
In fact, Musk himself couldn't believe it.
He originally thought Xiao Qi's "preferred investment option" was just a polite remark, but at the beginning of today's meeting, Lensing made Xiao Qi's request, which surprised him, the representatives of GOOGLE, and other shareholders.
After communicating with Xiao Qi on the phone, Masco sought the opinions of other shareholder representatives, and immediately agreed to Xiao Qi's request to purchase 10% of the shares.
He, shareholder representatives, journalists, and investors all thought the same thing.
Xiao Qi is so impatient to participate in the financing plan, doesn't this just mean that Xiao Qi is very optimistic about Tesla's future?
This is completely conducive to Tesla's further attention, and the financing is booming!
as predicted.
Within five hours after the press conference, Masco received calls from no less than 20 well-known venture capitalists, fund companies, and angel investors, and all of them are very important in the industry, and there are even more people who have no weight , Masco can only hand them over to his secretary to deal with.
Several private equity funds and angel investors were the craziest. After several hours of communication, they immediately came to Musko's office, and a group of people had a very heated discussion.
Finally, in the middle of the night, 10% of the shares have been divided up by five companies and individuals, and the speed is jaw-dropping.
Such a situation does not exist alone.
The next morning, Musk held another press conference on the financing plan of SpaceX Space Transportation Company, but this time Xiao Qi did not make any additional investment, so the originally prepared valuation of 3.5 billion U.S. dollars suddenly dropped to 3 billion U.S. dollars , worth 20% of the 600 million US dollars shares, it took two full days to sell all of them.
Even so, Masco laughed from ear to ear.
Now that so much funds have been encircled, I can develop steadily for a few years, and I have taken another step towards the realization of my ideals.
I don't know the shareholders who won't see the benefits by then. Will he scold Musko severely, or should he scold Xiao Qi?
Anyway, Masco doesn't care. As long as he can continue his ideal.
At the same time, because of Xiao Qi's investment and the pursuit of the investment community, the three major rating agencies finally pulled up the ratings of Tesla and SpaceX, which further made people marvel at Xiao Qi's status in the investment community.
Of course, Xiao Qi would not pay attention to what they thought.
Of these two investments, one will shine in 3 years, and the other should be a small success within 5 years, both of which are long-term investments. There is no need to worry about it.
Originally, Tang Mingxiang also called and asked the child's father if she could also buy some shares. Xiao Qi pondered for a while and told her not to get involved. It's best that a few projects in his hand are enough.
Little Meiji already knew how to use her own advantages to win favors. Listening to her slightly hoarse voice, and the babbling voice of Buer beside her, and looking at the two mother and daughter, she only talked for 10 minutes about the business. But when I hung up the video call, 2 hours had passed before I knew it.
I don't know if it's because Tang Mingxiang has enough milk, but Bu'er looks better than her sister Sophie. The chubby and indescribably cute, almost half year old girl looked at Xiao Qi. The way her eyes are wide open is indescribably cute.
Compared with Little Taylor's having a girl who is full of everything, Tang Mingxiang is naturally busier, because Chose girl needs to be taken care of by herself. Even with a team of shrewd and capable professional managers, she still likes to watch Chose girl go ahead.
If you want to say that little Taylor is not doing any business at all, that is also not correct.
The several singles she recorded before, and several fairy company product advertisements, have all been released in the past half a year. But for such a long time without showing her face, the paparazzi could hardly catch her. It still makes fans more or less confused.
So at Scott's request, Little Taylor could only attend several business events and hold two or three small fan meetings, which was considered to appease the emotions of the fans.
But the fans definitely don’t know that Little Taylor actually brought her daughter with her. When she was attending an event or holding a fan meeting, Sophie was pushed in the car by the Japanese aunts, under the secret protection of the bodyguards. , hang out on the street until mom is almost home, then get back in the big RV nanny van and go home with mom.
I don’t know if Americans are naturally extroverted, so that little Sophie also inherited her mother’s personality. Although she is not yet half a year old, she is full of energy when she goes out, looking around with great interest.
Sometimes when going out with Bu'er, she also knows how to climb on top of her younger sister and babble to say something to her younger sister. The two little girls often laugh in ways adults can't understand, which amazes both Taylor and Tang Mingxiang.
After hanging up the phone, Xiao Qi thought about it, and then called Blackstone Group CEO Schwarzman, "Steve, how are you doing?"
"I'm so busy, life is hard!" Schwarzman said with a wry smile, "I'm not as good as you. Recently, we are almost busy and divided into two people. If I knew it, I wouldn't take over the mess of the Black Rock Group." Already!"
With the help of Xiao Qi and others, the Black Rock Group annexed the Black Rock Group, which was originally the same as them, and became the largest asset management company in the world.
But unfortunately, just after the two companies merged, the subprime mortgage crisis broke out, and all the assets under management were hit hard and suffered heavy losses.
Although more than half a year has passed now, the situation can only be said to be improving, not recovery. If you want to fully recover, you have to wait at least two or three years.
Fortunately, the Black Rock Group is famous for its prudence. They are very cautious about all investments. The Black Rock Group has a little more problems, but if they are sorted out slowly, they will not reach the point where they cannot be rescued.
However, it is inevitable to be in a hurry. It is said that their top management has been working continuously for the past six months, and there is no time to rest.
Hearing Schwartzman complaining about his pain, Xiao Qi just took it as a joke.
If Xiao Qi told them at this time that he was willing to acquire the Black Rock Group, Schwartzman would definitely refuse without even thinking about it. Take it under your command, how could you just hand it over to someone else?
"You are so busy, it seems that I have to find someone else." Xiao Qi nodded.
Schwartzman quickly stopped the polite, "Wait a minute, what do you want?"
Xiao Qi said: "I have a big business to do, which requires you to pay a lot of hard work and hardships, if you think it is very difficult now, then forget it."
"No trouble, no difficulty, no problem at all."
Schwarzman immediately changed his tune, what a joke, even Xiao Qi said it was a big business, how could they not be tempted by an asset management company that specializes in serving customers?
Xiao Qi said again, "This time I want to control Disney, you have to think it over before you talk about it."
"Uh……"
Swarzman's heart skipped a beat, "Is your magic hand finally going to Disney? Do you want to buy all the symbols of America?"
In the hearts of Americans, Disney is not just a company, it has even become a symbol of American culture, rooted in every corner of people's lives, and it will never be replaced by Disney.
Everyone in the fund industry has heard about it. The two ladies who have a close relationship with Xiao Qi have each owned 5% of Disney shares. They have become Disney's second and third largest individuals in the way of family management funds. shareholder.
Many people guessed that these two ladies must be Xiao Qi's love interest, otherwise how could there be so many rich women who would dare to buy Dicini's shares directly with cash without blinking an eye? That's not 25 million, but a price of 2.5 billion US dollars!
Schwarzman knew a little bit of the inside story, but his tone was always tight, so naturally he didn't say anything.
Now he couldn't help asking, "Mr. Xiao Qi, your women already own 10% of Disney's shares, isn't that enough? Disney is very good, but as a symbol of the United States, it will always be Disney. I'm afraid that wanting to own all of them is a task that you will not be able to accomplish!"
"When did I say I want to privatize Disneyland?" Listening to his frustration, Xiao Qi smiled and said, "I just want to own 60% of the shares, and you can buy me about 50% of the shares, what? So, can it be done?"
"That's it..."
Schwarzman thought quickly in his heart.
Although in the past 50 years, Disney has not been fully controlled by others, but not one or two American companies have been controlled by others. Many large companies in the past were eventually acquired by others.
Although Disney will always be Disney, it is not IBM, Intel, Citigroup, Goldman Sachs, or DuPont after all.
Disney is just an ordinary commercial company. The U.S. regulatory authorities are very open to acquisitions and reorganizations in this area—they are more inclusive than Europe, which is why large U.S. companies can continue One of the important reasons why private enterprises in Europe can only shrink slowly in the face of rapid development.
Xiao Qi did not privatize Disney, but took full control of Disney, which would not arouse too fierce opposition.
The only difficulty is that Disney's stock is very scattered, and many people are not short of money at all and don't want to sell Disney's stock at all.
To complete this business, it will definitely involve a lot of energy. For the current Blackstone Group, it must be very difficult! (to be continued ~^~)
