After Li Guangyu left the Governor's Mansion, he returned to Jiayi Building, told Liu Tianci and others about the results of the discussion with MacLehose, and ordered Liu Tianci to contact the Information Department to negotiate the satellite and spectrum expansion as soon as possible.
Shi Nansheng said from the side: "Li Sheng, which country's satellite channel are we going to rent?"
Li Guangyu said: "I am not planning to rent satellites from other countries. Our group will directly purchase a satellite to specifically serve the group. I will contact Mr. Yuan Tianfan and discuss this with an American company."
Liu Tianci and the others are naturally happy. It is very convenient for their group to have a satellite. No matter how many channels the TV station adds in the future, this satellite will be enough for their group to use.
After Li Guangyu arranged Jiayi's affairs, he came to Xingyu Group. Li Xuemei went to Japan in the past two days, so Li Guangyu wanted to come to the group to have a look. If the group had any urgent matters, he could handle it immediately.
The reason why Li Xuemei went to Japan in person this time was because Takara's Diamond Tornado toy came out, and her company's transforming robots. As long as they get the copyright of these two toys, Li Guangyu and his company can produce Transformers.
.
This time, in order to show that he attached great importance to the matter, Li Guangyu arranged for Li Xuemei to lead a team, Xiangyu Group President Zhou Liangshuyi and the general manager of the toy company to go to Japan to discuss copyright matters with Takara Company.
After Li Guangyu came to the company, he said to Wang Xinyu: "Ms. Li Xuemei is not in the group these days. You have to be responsible for the group's affairs. If there is anything that cannot be solved, please contact Ms. Zhang Ziyu at any time. He will report to me so that I can timely
Solve it for the group."
Wang Xinyu said: "Li Sheng, I will manage the group's affairs well."
This happened in the conference room of the Xiangyu Group branch in Tokyo, Japan. Li Xuemei and others were listening to the company's general manager Chen Weiqi's report on the situation of Takara Company.
Chen Weiqi said: "Ms. Li, President Zhou Liang, we have communicated with Takara about the copyright of the diamond whirlwind and transforming robot images. Takara also intends to authorize the copyright to us. We need you to negotiate with Takara about the price.
"
Li Xuemei said: "Sheng Chen, does Takara have any restrictions on us regarding the adaptation of toy images?"
"Ms. Li, Takara Company has not made any restrictions in this regard?" Chen Weiqi replied.
Li Xuemei was relieved when he heard this. He knew that what Li Guangyu wanted was this copyrighted adaptation. However, Li Guangyu had been unable to take action due to Takara's patent issues before. This time he came here to successfully obtain the use of these two toys.
Copyright and adaptation rights.
Although Li Xuemei didn't know why Li Guangyu valued the copyright of these two toys so much, Li Xuemei knew that Li Guangyu would only order her to do so carefully when he was particularly making money.
To be honest, these two toys are only somewhat well-known in Japan today, not even as good as some of the toys of Xiangyu Group. Xiangyu Group relies on various publicity in magazines and cartoons, and has a certain influence around the world, and the toys are also popular in various countries.
Best-selling regionally.
The next morning, Li Xuemei and others came to Takara Company to formally discuss the copyright acquisition issue with Takara Company.
Jiro Murata, the chairman of Takara Company, welcomed Li Xuemei at the entrance of the company. He had some knowledge of the identity of the person who was coming to discuss with the company today.
As for the number one person in the Li family in Xiangjiang coming to discuss with him in person, it can be seen that Li Guangyu still attaches great importance to his company. You must know that this is the first time that the person in charge of Xiangjiang has joined the Li Group and has been away from work due to official duties.
Leave Hong Kong.
After Li Xuemei and others arrived, Murata Jiro came up to them and said, "Ms. Li, Ms. Zhou Liang, welcome to your arrival. Please come inside."
After Li Xuemei and others followed Murata Jiro to the office, Murata Jiro said: "Thank you, Mr. Li, for attaching great importance to our company and sending two presidents to our company to discuss in person this time."
Li Xuemei said: "Mr. Murata, we are very fond of the partners of the group. The reason why we came to your company this time is because your company has outstanding capabilities and strength. Li Sheng asked us to say hello to you on his behalf and also warmly invites you.
Come to Xiangjiang as a guest."
Jiro Murata still knows his weight, and this is just a polite statement. Although his company is not bad, it is vastly different from today's Lee Group.
His current company may be similar to the toy company under the Xiangyu Group. If Li's executives hadn't taken a liking to the copyrights of these two toys, it would have been impossible for Li Xuemei and Zhou Liang Shuyi to come to their company at the same time.
Jiro Murata said: "Thank you Li Sheng for your kindness. I will definitely visit Li Sheng after I arrive in Xiangjiang."
Li Xuemei said: "Mr. Murata, regarding the issue of toy copyright, I think Manager Chen Weiqi has discussed it with your company many times. The framework has probably been finalized. Today we are here in person to discuss with you face to face. They cannot make the decision.
problem."
Currently, Xiangyu Group and Takara have major differences regarding toy copyright licensing issues, mainly on price.
Jiro Murata knows that the Xiangyu Group attaches great importance to the copyright of these two toys. Although he still does not know how valuable the copyright will be in the future when it is changed to Transformers, but judging from the importance of the Li Group, he has the confidence to shout like this
The price comes out.
This time Jiro Murata's asking price is 20 million US dollars, which is already more than 100 million Hong Kong dollars. Xiangyu Group naturally does not want to take advantage of this, so based on the situation of these two toys, it made an offer of 5 million US dollars.
Before Li Xuemei came to Japan, she had obtained authorization from Li Guangyu. Even if it cost 20 million US dollars, she still had to obtain the copyright authorization and adaptation rights for these two toys.
Li Xuemei said: "Mr. Murata, although we, Li Sheng, value the copyrights of these two toys more, this is not the reason for you to ask for exorbitant prices. If this is the case, I think we don't need to talk."
Jiro Murata also shouted out the price to Chen Weiqi. He mainly wanted to meet with Li's senior management in person to discuss the issue.
The Lee Group is also very influential in Japan today. Not only are its companies developing well in Japan, but they also have good relations with the Fujiwara family and the Sumitomo family. He does not want to offend the Lee Group by asking too high a price. He can earn a fortune.
A pen will do. If you order too much, you might not be able to eat it.
Jiro Murata said: "Ms. Li, if you give me a sincere price, if I think it is acceptable, we can draw up a contract. I very much hope to become friends with the Li Group."
Li Xuemei said: "Mr. Murata, Li Sheng told us before we came that we can also cooperate with Takara in the future. Our Li Group is willing to invest 10 million US dollars to acquire the use rights and adaptation rights of your two toys."
Jiro Murata immediately agreed to the price offered by Li Xuemei. This time he planned to transfer even if the Li Group invested five million. He just hoped to get in touch with the senior management of the Li Group and hoped to cooperate with the Li Group in the future.
, it would even be better to contact the Fujiwara family and Sumitomo family through the Lee Group.
Jiro Murata understands very well that only by relying on these big families can his company develop better, especially those like the Sumitomo family. With their support, his company will have a bright future.
Li Xuemei said: "Thank you, Mr. Murata."
Li Xuemei thought that Jiro Murata would be difficult to deal with. You must know that when Chen Weiqi negotiated with him, he insisted on a price of 20 million US dollars. If he wanted to ask the top management of Xiangyu Group to come and negotiate with him, Li Xuemei had already done it, but it was impossible.
, just give him 20 million US dollars.
Unexpectedly, he agreed the first time he made the offer. It seemed that the price in his mind was not very high. Li Xuemei even regretted that she had given the higher price.
