In the private room of the teahouse, Li Hanxiang beeped at Shi Zhijian for a while. After finally finishing blowing the water, he felt his mouth was dry, so he picked up the tea and took a sip, and then looked at the young man Shi Zhijian.
Speaking of which, Li Hanxiang despises Shi Zhijian and thinks that young people can't be honest in their work. He used to cooperate with big shots and tycoons like Lu Yuntao, and he also dealt with super tycoons like Shao Yifu, and "little guys" like Shi Zhijian.
"Character" was not something he noticed at all before.
But now the situation is stronger than others, and his Guolian company is in danger, so he can only take one step at a time.
"Mr. Shi, I am not praising Haikou. There are only four major theater chains in Hong Kong now, Shaw Brothers, Lydia, Shuangnan and Cathay Pacific."
"Shaw Brothers Cinemas is run by Mr. Shaw. Traitors like you and me can't get in. Li's has money injected by ghost guys, so it's never short of money. Shuangnan is also a left-wing cinema. If your and my movies are in their
Once it is released, don’t even think about entering Baodao and other markets.”
Li Hanxiang analyzed Shi Zhijian.
Of course Shi Zhijian knew what he was talking about. After all, Shi Zhijian had done a lot of homework to acquire theater chains.
There are now a total of 03 movie theaters in Hong Kong, and Shaw Brothers occupies 22 of them.
Li's cinema chain has a home, which is actually the future Golden Princess cinema chain. Now it is controlled by the capital controlled by Gui Lao, and Chinese people cannot squeeze in.
There are 6 Shuangnan cinemas in the Shuangnan cinema chain. They have political backgrounds and only play left-field movies, which is in great conflict with the Baodao market.
There are 2 Cathay Cinemas in total. In addition, there are 0 cinemas located in Taiwan and Southeast Asia.
In other words, what Shi Zhijian is most likely to win now is Cathay Cinemas, which owns two cinemas.
After Li Hanxiang finished speaking, he took another sip of tea, "To put it bluntly, I was very familiar with Cathay Cinemas. After all, this is the Lu family's property. Mr. Lu Yuntao, who passed away, was just like my eldest brother. We had a close relationship. Now
Lu Boping, who is in charge of Cathay Cinemas, even calls me Uncle Li."
"So Mr. Shi, as long as I am willing to take action, we can take down Cathay Pacific together. You will provide the money and I will provide the strength, and then we will sign an agreement to cooperate together. Then we can fight against Shaw Brothers together."
Shi Zhijian sipped his tea and smiled.
This Li Hanxiang is not very good at negotiating. He exposed his base in just a few words, and just like that, he still imitates others and plays the game of "empty wolf".
Shi Zhijian immediately said: "Mr. Li, I don't know how much it will cost to buy Cathay Pacific?"
"Two movie theaters cost at least 2.4 million!"
Shi Zhijian glanced at Zou Wenhuai, who was sitting next to him. Of course Zou Wenhuai understood what he meant. Now Jiahe's total working capital is only 300,000. Even if the other party gives a discount, it is estimated that there is still 2 million short.
"So how much money can you spend to cooperate with us to win Cathay Pacific this time?"
"Um..." Li Hanxiang sipped his tea in embarrassment. He was here with nothing. Where would the money come from? If he had money, he wouldn't look for a good guy like Shi Zhijian.
"It's a shame to say that our League of Nations is now based on the construction of movie theaters, and a lot of funds have been used in this area, so..."
"So you can't get the money, right?"
Shi Zhijian's question made Li Hanxiang embarrassed, "It's not that I can't get it out, it's just that I don't have much for the time being."
"It doesn't matter, I want the theater chain!" Shi Zhijian said boldly, "But I also ask Mr. Li to help negotiate the price with Cathay Pacific."
"How much to cut?"
"half!"
"Pfft!" Li Hanxiang was drinking water and almost choked on the tea. He doubted whether Shi Zhijian could count. How could he get half of it taken away no matter how hard he bargained for something like this?
"I know this bargaining is a bit excessive, but we, Jiahe Startup, really can't afford that much cash right now. To be honest with Mr. Li, we only have 300,000 in cash, and we just picked it out from between our teeth!"
Li Hanxiang glanced at Zou Wenhuai, who was nodding beside him, then looked at Shi Zhijian, and said shamelessly: "Don't you still have a soda factory? I heard that you mortgaged the instant noodle factory and there is still one left.
Soda water factory, then the soda water factory is worth at least two million, right?"
Shi Zhijian looked at Li Hanxiang with admiration for the first time, and he had done a lot of homework.
Seeing Shi Zhijian's surprised look, Li Hanxiang felt a little proud in his heart. He proudly picked up the tea cup and took a sip, "Mr. Shi, we are all businessmen and we know each other well. I don't think there is any need to play too many tricks."
It’s true that Cathay Cinema is very popular. Besides you, there are many people interested in it. I took the initiative to contact you because of Mr. Zou’s face and wanted to cooperate with you.”
"Mr. Li misunderstood, I am very sincere." Shi Zhijian said, "So I ask Mr. Li to discuss with Cathay Pacific. Even if half price is not possible, a 40% discount will be fine. If 40% off is not possible, a 30% discount will be fine."
"Mr. Shi, please understand the situation. This is a theater chain, not selling sugar cane on the street. You can bargain at any discount." Li Hanxiang was angry and felt that Shi Zhijian was not sincere enough.
Shi Zhijian sighed, with a rich expression on his face, as if he was very frustrated.
"So what suggestions does Mr. Li have?"
"Suggestions? What suggestions can I have? If you are willing, I can help you take the lead in talking to Cathay Pacific, but the price must not be less than 2.4 million! This is already a friendship price! If I hadn't known Lu Yuntao, his descendant Lu
Bo Ping treats me as his own uncle and will not sell it at this price!" Li Hanxiang spoke righteously and directly showed his unique identity.
"I understand! In fact, Mr. Li and I hit it off, especially since I also need an uncle. Why don't I call you uncle, and ask you not to take any kickbacks, but to give you a honest price!"
"Ahem!" Li Hanxiang was shocked. How did he know that I wanted to take kickbacks? I didn't tell anyone!
Zou Wenhuai looked at Shi Zhijian with admiration. He was so shameless! He was no better than me!
"The rebate is usually 20%, which is about 40,000 for 2.4 million, so subtracting this amount and 2 million for it should be no problem!"
Shi Zhijian spoke very quickly without giving anyone a chance to think.
Before Li Hanxiang could react, Shi Zhijian grabbed his hand again and stared into his eyes: "How about it, is it a deal? If it's suitable, you can contact Cathay Pacific. You will be my uncle from now on, and I will buy it.
You can use Cathay Pacific as you please! Don’t be polite!”
Li Hanxiang was stunned for a long time, feeling that Shi Zhijian was just a roundworm in his stomach. How could he know everything?
This time, he originally came over to work as a "middleman" to earn the price difference. Unexpectedly, he recognized a nephew and the price difference was gone.
After all, Li Hanxiang is a scholar, and he is fundamentally different from a profiteer like Shi Zhijian. After thinking for a moment, he finally had to reluctantly shake hands with Shi Zhijian and said: "Deal!"
Next to him, Zou Wenhuai looked dumbfounded and said, "Uncle, I saved 400,000. He never thought this thing was so valuable!"
