Chapter 1320 Excellent Lobbyist

"I think it would be a bit difficult under such conditions." Honda said carefully, not daring to make Yin Jun angry: "The current 7% of the total income share is indeed less. Take a look. How about increasing this number to 20%? That’s almost three times the original amount! You also know that Disney Japan will definitely make money, and such a large amount of income is enough to make up for the losses of Disneyland in the United States."

He was reminding Yin Jun that the two Disneys in the United States are still losing money, so don't go too far and destroy the cash cow of Japanese Disney.

Yin Jun shrugged, "Actually, Mr. Honda, you also know that I am not very interested in Disneyland. What I want to do more is movies and TV stations. Disney happens to be doing well in these two areas. It should be enough for them to operate smoothly.”

Honda was stunned.

He immediately smiled bitterly.

Too.

Since the Kirin Group took over Disney, Disney has indeed only focused on movies and TV channels. It has not paid much attention to its own park business and has maintained the status quo.

If they hadn't taken action this time and surprised Disneyland Japan, many people might have ignored that Disney also has a theme park business.

"Then 30%!" Honda Makoto quickly raised the conditions, "It's four times the previous amount, and the annual profit can reach at least hundreds of millions of dollars. This is definitely a good condition. If it's more, their Oriental Paradise can It is completely unsustainable.”

"If the gap between us is still that big, Mr. Honda, I'm afraid we won't be able to talk about anything today." Yin Jun shook his head, looking like he didn't want to talk to Honda.

But for Honda Makoto, it is impossible for him to accept 60% of the price. Even if Masato Takahashi committed suicide by caesarean section to apologize, he would not be able to accept it.

By that time, things would become a big deal.

Perhaps Yin Jun would not be greatly affected, but he would be nailed to the pillar of shame.

For the first time, Honda Makoto's face turned serious.

After thinking for a moment, Honda finally reluctantly threw out his bottom line.

"Master Jun, do you think this will work?" Honda Makoto said word by word, "20% of the income from Japan Disneyland belongs to the Disney Company. The Disney Company will invest another 1 billion US dollars into the operation of Japan Disneyland. Among them, you can get another 20% equity... Of course, this fund is loaned by Sumitomo Bank Xiangjiang Branch, and you only need to use the equity of Japan Disneyland as collateral.

As for the interest on this fund, you don’t have to worry about anything morally. We can refund the interest. The repayment time is 5 years, and you can repay it every year with the proceeds from Disneyland Japan. Of course, you can also choose to make a one-time repayment after 5 years. Are you satisfied with these conditions? "

Yin Jun was slightly surprised, "If we invest 1 billion US dollars, will we have Disney shares in Japan Disneyland?"

It is worth mentioning that when Disney was discussing Disneyland cooperation with Japan, considering the huge cultural differences between the East and the West, it was not so optimistic about Disneyland Japan.

Therefore, they adopted the method of letting Japanese franchises and full management. They did not invest any money at all, and naturally they would not occupy any shares.

As a result, later facts proved that Disneyland in Japan has become the most profitable Disneyland in the world, making so much money that Disney and the others regretted it.

Now that Honda has asked Disney to invest 1 billion U.S. dollars, it is certain to obtain profits, but if we can further obtain shares of Disney Japan, it will really not be a small gain.

Honda hesitated for a moment and gritted his teeth, "If it's only 10% of the shares, I think there's no problem."

"10%?" Yin Jun flatly refused, "Is there 10 billion US dollars invested in Disneyland? I invested 1 billion US dollars in real money, but I can only get 10% of the shares. Do you think too highly of yourselves? ?”

"That's not the case." Honda Makoto said quickly, "There are many factors involved in Disneyland. In addition to money, there are also various management and operation costs. They cannot be calculated purely in terms of money."

"Okay, we at Disney can also provide managers." Yin Jun pressed forward step by step.

Honda Makoto was speechless.

A very important part of Masatomo Takahashi's request to him is that the interests can be given away, and even some shares can be given out, but Disney must not interfere in the operation of Japan's Disneyland, which will cause great trouble. !

So this is also Takahashi Masaichi's bottom line, and it is even more important than monetary interests.

Operating alone and controlling the main operating body of Disneyland is the biggest guarantee that Japan’s Disneyland will always be in the hands of the Japanese!

"If you own shares, you can dispatch supervisors." Makoto Honda quickly explained seriously, "But when it comes to operations, Chairman Takahashi feels that it should be done in accordance with the previous contract. The Disney delegation also admitted that, What is stipulated in the contract is the basis for cooperation between the two parties. So there is no need to change it."

Yin Jun smiled and said, "Then what's the use of these shares that we get? Just to sell them after the development of Disneyland is complete?"

Honda smiled and said, "I know that with your foresight, you will definitely not sell it. This is a very high-quality asset. For the Kirin Group, it can be considered a good one."

What he said is also true.

The future valuation of Disney in Japan, if Yin Jun remembers correctly, will probably reach 60 billion U.S. dollars. A 10% stake would be worth 6 billion U.S. dollars, 6 times the current value, which is very impressive.

What’s even more impressive is that Disney Japan began to make money from the first year of its opening. After a new Disneyland was built around 2000, it became even more profitable, with annual profits of more than 1 billion U.S. dollars. It provides a steady stream of profits for Oriental Paradise Co., Ltd., allowing them to make a lot of money.

Now Yin Jun's biggest advantage is that he knows that Disneyland Japan is the most profitable theme park, but the Japanese themselves don't know it.

Although all the tickets for the first fifteen days were sold out, who knew this wasn’t the reason why it was a novelty in the first place? What should I do if I get cold all of a sudden after being so energetic?

Takahashi Masaichi is very confident in Disneyland, but he is not as confident as Yin Jun.

Therefore, the extent of their concessions is quite large.

If they knew, let alone 30%, even 20% of the income would definitely be very difficult.

Not to mention letting Yin Jun invest 1 billion US dollars and enjoy another 20% income!

According to this condition, Disney invests 1 billion U.S. dollars, and then has a total of 40% of the income. In one year, it will be about 400 million U.S. dollars... Well, it may not be that much at the beginning, but there is still 200 to 300 million U.S. dollars.

Where can I find a business that can earn around 2 billion Hong Kong dollars a year and doesn’t have to worry about profit decline for 40 years?

For Kirin Group, this is already a very good result, much better than the previous life.

Moreover, Yin Jun did not have to pay for the 1 billion US dollars himself. Sumitomo Bank helped with the loan and did not charge interest.

In terms of interest alone, even if it is calculated at the most favorable interest rate of 5%, it will be an interest subsidy of US$250 million in five years. This is another hugely profitable business.

But Yin Jun felt that he could still strive for more.

Anyway, the Japanese money is nothing if not earned.

"Invest 1 billion US dollars and occupy 15% of the shares." Yin Jun knocked on the table and said calmly: "I want 45% of the profit share. If such an agreement can be reached, then this time the matter will be considered over. Japan. We will not send people to participate in the management of this Disneyland, it will always be Oriental Land Co., Ltd.!"

Seeing that Honda still wanted to speak, Yin Jun raised his hand, "This is my most sincere decision, and it is based on the fact that Sumitomo Bank is willing to match up and provide funds to Disney. If Takahashi If the president still doesn’t agree, then I think there will be nothing left to talk about. Mr. Honda, please convey this intention to him."

When Honda Cheng's words came to his lips, he swallowed them back abruptly.

Sighing, he knew that this was all he could say today.

This condition cannot be said to be very good, but it is actually not the worst.

The bottom line is slightly better than that of Takahashi Masaru. At least Takahashi Masaru did not expect that Disney would be willing to invest another US$1 billion. This is also a good thing for Oriental Park, which has taken out countless loans in the past two years. .

It is worth mentioning that the idea of ​​​​loaning 1 billion US dollars to invest in Japan's Disneyland was not Takahashi Masato's at all, but Honda Makoto's own idea.

Now it seems that the effect is not average.

If it weren't for such a strategy that lubricated the company, it would have been impossible for Yin Jun to accept a 20% profit share, and it would have been impossible for Takahashi Masaru to accept Yin Jun's request for a 45% profit share.

At first glance, it seems that Sumitomo Bank suffered too much. Not to mention acting as a lobbyist, it also subsidized US$1 billion in funds and paid more than US$250 million in interest.

But things cannot be viewed simply that way.

Sumitomo Bank was able to solve things that no one else could do well. How quickly and decisively is this ability?

The domestic business community must have a high regard for Sumitomo Bank.

As for Yin Jun, Sumitomo Bank loaned another US$1 billion to Yin Jun. Doesn't that further strengthen the relationship with Yin Jun?

Isn’t Sumitomo Bank’s plan to tie up Yin Jun another successful step?

If you can spend 1 billion US dollars in interest-free loans, you can achieve such a good goal of killing two birds with one stone. No matter how you calculate it, it is very cost-effective!

And Honda Makoto is not a fool.

Although Yin Jun said today that he would not talk about it again, how could the business be settled just like that?

No matter how tyrannical a businessman is, he will always make a slight concession in negotiation.

Honda estimates that after going back and forth a few times and discussing with himself, Yin Jun is likely to accept 43% or even 42% of the profit sharing, as well as 12% or 13% of the shareholding conditions.

In this way, it is the best result for Oriental Paradise.

Who told them not to notice such a huge flaw in the first place, which forced them to let others take advantage of them?

If he is not satisfied even if this condition is met, Honda Makoto feels that Takahashi Masatomo can really abdicate and give way to others, so as not to be tricked by others next time.

Of course, this breach of contract also served as a wake-up call to clubs across Japan.

When everyone goes out to buy things, acquire companies, or cooperate in the future, they will be more cautious and pay attention to the issue of liquidated damages. From now on, they will never suffer big losses from this.

Therefore, the lesson learned this time is very painful for Oriental Paradise, but it is a good wake-up call for the entire Japanese business community.
