Chapter 461 Successful Acquisition of Apple Video

In a neatly decorated conference room.

A middle-aged man of medium build in a black suit sat at the conference table and said, "It's not that we don't approve of the merger of 'Youle' and 'Apple', but we have a concern."

The negotiating representative of "You Le" is Assistant Jin, "Speak, Mr. Zhu."

The middle-aged man called "President Zhu" by Assistant Jin was named Zhu Yong.

——Is the largest shareholder of "Apple Video". He himself holds 87% of the shares of "Apple Video" and is the big boss of "Apple Video".

Zhu Yong only started to get in touch with this gentle-looking young man in front of him in the last month.

A month ago, he suddenly came to the door through an old friend of his, saying that he wanted to talk to him about the acquisition of "Apple Video" by "Starlight Investment Fund".

The right-hand man of the boss of the "Starlight Investment Fund", and an old friend who made the bridge, Zhu Yong couldn't help but give him face.

But how to put it, he claims that he is more or less a figure in the mall, and an assistant won't make him treat him differently, if it's the one above him, it's almost the same.

But after a month of communication, he no longer dared to underestimate this young assistant.

Even with the continuous advancement of the acquisition project, the communication and interaction between "Apple" and "Starlight" deepened. When he was negotiating with him, he dared not relax his vigilance.

Openings are becoming more and more cautious——

"Your 'You Le' has absorbed and integrated our 'Apple' into its own business. Even if you 'divide and conquer' in terms of content, we still need to maintain the user base with matching quality and quantity of production works, and 'You Le' has It’s the big brother, so it is destined that the resources of 'Apple' will be continuously delivered to 'Ule' in the future, and the strategy of 'Apple' will also be directed by the overall strategy of 'Ule'."

Throughout the mergers and acquisitions of industry giants, there has never been a safe and equal transaction, and the strong have always been stronger, and the weak have been weaker or even disappeared.

This kind of lessons learned can be found everywhere in all walks of life.

"Apple Video" was created by Zhu Yong. It really needs the capital of "Starlight" and the resources of "Youle" to support it. The "apple" is gone.

After Zhu Yong whitewashed his words, Assistant Jin immediately understood his worries and worries, so he replied indifferently: "The development goal of 'You Le' is overseas streaming media."

His light words dispelled all Zhu Yong's hesitation and hesitation.

"That's good, that's good."

Zhu Yong smiled happily, "We have read the contract here. If there is no problem, let's sign the contract. It's getting late. After signing, we can go to have lunch."

As a person in the industry, he is too aware of how promising the overseas development prospects of "Ule" are now.

He has not seen the financial statements of "You Le", but according to gossip, last year's year-end financial report, "You Le" had 310 million global paying users in Q1.

Among them, Q1 increased by 27.57 million subscriptions in a single quarter, and is expected to add 13 to 15 million new subscribers in Q2.

...

After successfully signing the contract, the lunch can only be a celebration banquet.

At the celebration banquet.

As the signing representatives of the two parties, Zhu Yong and Assistant Jin sat side by side.

After drinking for three rounds, Zhu Yong had already blushed and put his arms around Assistant Jin's shoulders, calling him brothers and sisters, "Brother Jin is always convenient, can you make an appointment for me? I have admired his demeanor for a long time."

Assistant Jin smiled politely and kindly, "Mr. Zhu, we are all a family now, and there are always opportunities when we meet."

As soon as Zhu Yong heard this, he smiled, "This is this."

He lifted the decanter and refilled Assistant Jin himself.

Assistant Jin waited for him to add a little to his wine glass, and immediately reached out to cover the noodles in the tall crystal cup, "Mr. Zhu, I'm sorry, I have to go back to report our good news to Mr. Shi later, really Can't drink any more."

"Then let's drink less." Zhu Yong removed the flagon very simply.

A table of people surrounded the two of them.

Everyone seemed to be talking to the people next to them in a gentle and respectable voice, but in fact, everyone's attention was not less on the two of them.

Zhu Yong chatted with Assistant Jin again, and then, taking advantage of the wine, he leaned into his ear and asked, "Brother Jin, I heard rumors in the industry that our 'Youle Video' has been working in the past two years. As for the performance data of overseas growth, to tell you the truth, I am very impressed by the operation and management model of 'Ule', but I don't know if the news is reliable?"

Then, he lowered his voice and told him some specific data that he knew.

After Assistant Jin listened carefully, he nodded very calmly, "Previously, the management of 'You Le' expected an increase of 7 million."

...

"Weibo?" He Yuan, who was lying alone in the study of a villa on the outskirts of Beijing, drinking and reading, suddenly received a call from Ma Zhou, "Forget it."

While talking, she sat up from the sofa slightly drunk, "She is very weird, she doesn't play Weibo, doesn't watch TV, and usually only reads papers and books, it's easy to ask her to post on Weibo, the problem is that she always She has never used Weibo before, so she registered a new account just for the show, she doesn't have any fans, she looks like a troll."

"That's it..." Ma Zhou on the other end of the phone was rather surprised, "This Xiao Ning is really a cultured person, she is very casual."

He Yuan chuckled, "She's not like us. She has struggled for half her life and talks about freedom, but she still thinks about money and fame in her heart. She doesn't need to bow her head for these things. She only cares about the thing itself when she does something. Whether it has practical significance and value to society and others."

He Yuan has already talked about this, so Ma Zhou could only smile and sigh, "Okay then, I'll tell the program team to announce this, so don't bring Xiao Ning along."

"Thank you brother." He Yuan laughed heartily.

"Yuanyuan, why are you being polite to me?" Ma Zhou smiled, "The editor and director of our program group said that we will select more topics related to 'psychology' and 'education' in the future, then you have to help us please Xiaoning, come to our studio for tea."

He Yuan laughed loudly, "I can't do what the professor wants, let's talk about it when we have something suitable."

...

A lounge temporarily built by a domestic production crew.

Zhou Tang sat on the chair with his eyes closed, letting his personal make-up artist smear on his face.

In the corner beside him, Xiaoqian was half lying on the beanbag sofa in loose casual clothes and swiping his phone.

While brushing, he suddenly got up and walked over to Zhou Tang who was putting on makeup, and said, "Brother, "Old Friends Come" x-on:You, it seems that he wants us to help forward it to promote the show."

"You just turn around." Zhou Tang closed his eyes, nothing to do.

"But when we were on this show, the contract we negotiated didn't agree to help promote it." Xiaoqian scratched her head in embarrassment, "Will Sister Lin talk about us later?" 1314
