My Age of Investment

Pamut tried his old trick again, but found that it didn't work!

Warner, Universal, Paramount, and Sony announced their withdrawal from acquisition negotiations after a wave of anger over their presence.

With this luck, Pamut almost vomited blood, but there was nothing he could do.

He concluded that these four companies were deliberately causing trouble and did not look good on Marvel at all, because these four companies had had trouble with Marvel in recent years!

But when Fox found out that Vision Capital really withdrew from the deal, they also withdrew. The sedan chair had already run away, so why did they have to carry the sedan chair.

Disney, the only buyer still insisting, insisted on an acquisition price of US$3.4 billion and refused to let go, and also asked Marvel to accept a "part cash + part Disney equity" acquisition method.

The situation took a turn for the worse, and Pamut began to miss the generosity of Vision Capital.

The financial tycoons on Wall Street are just rich, and they are much more impressive than a bunch of stinkers making movies.

Pamut shamelessly contacted Abel and Xia Jingxing, but both of them firmly rejected Pamut's request to meet.

The shameless Jew still refused to give up and began to have other ideas.

At night, Xia Jingxing was panting heavily and rolled off Ivanka's graceful body. The latter thoughtfully wiped the sweat from his forehead with a towel.

"Why are you so well-behaved and sensible today?"

Ivanka snuggled into Xia Jingxing's arms, "Didn't I think I was well-behaved and sensible before?"

Xia Jingxing slapped Ivanka, causing her hips to roll, "You must have something to ask me for."

Ivanka smiled slyly, "Guess!"

"Tell me, what does your father want to do? Didn't he introduce the cooperation between Hengtai Group and Friedrich Group last time?"

Ivanka shook her head, "Just because we signed a contract, we may not be able to enter the Chinese market."

Xia Jingxing stopped talking. It would be okay to ask him to introduce the cooperation. The Friedrich Group wants to enter the Chinese market. Let's find a way on our own!

He was trying to figure out how to deal with it.

Unexpectedly, Ivanka didn't mention this again, but asked about Marvel.

"I heard that you gave up on acquiring Marvel?"

Xia Jingxing nodded, "Yes, Pamut is too greedy and plays tricks on us again and again.

As the top capital on Wall Street, Vision Capital doesn’t want to lose face?

That idiot, just go and have fun by yourself! I'd like to see what Disney can offer him. "

Ivanka looked a little embarrassed, "Mr. Parmut and my father have been friends for many years. I want to call him uncle."

Xia Jingxing kept coughing, "Then why didn't you tell me earlier?"

"You didn't ask me? Uncle Pamut has a house in Palm Beach, Florida, right next to our Mar-a-Lago estate. Our two families often gather together and we have a good relationship."

Xia Jingxing vaguely remembered that Friedrich became the queen, and Parmut seemed to have been invited to board Air Force One. At the same time, this old Jewish man also donated a lot of money to Friedrich's campaign for the commander-in-chief. supporter.

"There is such a relationship. You should tell me earlier. We are all real relatives. The transaction is 100 million US dollars more and 100 million US dollars less. The money is not going to anyone else!"

Xia Jingxing looked like he was sighing, which amused Ivanka.

She said: "Let me explain first, this uncle is a famous miser. Except for my father who can take advantage of him, no one else can even think about it."

"Then your dad is still awesome!"

Xia Jingxing couldn't help but laugh. No wonder the two of them could become friends. They were equally stingy in their relationship!

Ivanka said: "Don't laugh. Uncle Pamut found my dad, and my dad found me. I want to ask if you are still interested in acquiring Marvel?"

Xia Jingxing had long expected that Pamut would come looking for him. He originally wanted to drag him out and wear down the old Jewish man's shamelessness, but the other party found Ivanka to blow pillows, which showed that he was really anxious. .

Xia Jingxing pretended to be embarrassed: "We all announced our withdrawal from the acquisition of Marvel, and now we are turning back. It's not good. We will be laughed at easily."

"You have never publicly announced the acquisition of Marvel, nor have you announced your withdrawal from the acquisition. You will not be laughed at. Give Uncle Pamut a chance. He is very kind. He often bought us candies when we were young."

Ivanka hugged Xia Jingxing's arms and kept rubbing her breasts.

"Hey, your request makes me very embarrassed! Why don't you talk to me if you don't eat less of my candies?"

After Ivanka came to her senses, she secretly spat, then smiled at Xia Jing Xingmei, and slowly crawled to the end of the bed.

…………

…………

Pamut, who got the chance to meet by blowing pillows, is no longer as tough as before.

As soon as the old Jewish man saw Xia Jingxing in the conference room of Building 85 on Wall Street, he held Xia Jingxing's hand and said with a smile on his face: "Darren, Mr. Friedrich was full of praise for you, saying that you are better than He was even better when he was young.

I know that Friedrich, he never praises others easily, let alone admits that a young man is better than him. "

Xia Jingxing smiled lightly and said, "We are all our own people, Mr. Pamut, there is no need to be polite."

Pamut immediately hit the snake and stuck it on the stick, "Yes, yes, one of our own."

Abel looked at this large-scale family recognition scene and was speechless.

After the two parties sat down respectively, Parmut said: "Darren, after my unremitting efforts, the Marvel board of directors has agreed in principle to Vision Capital's offer."

Xia Jingxing listened with a smile, knowing that the old man didn't recognize his relatives and only recognized US dollars, so he must have something to say.

Parmut changed the topic and pretended to be embarrassed: "However, after all, Disney has quoted a price of US$3.4 billion, which is US$200 million different from yours."

Abel immediately emphasized: "But we pay in cash, and we pay it in one lump sum!"

Pamut stopped showing off and nodded: "I know this, but some shareholders want to exchange it for Disney stock!

After all, Disney is an established company with stable stock prices and earnings. Becoming a shareholder of Disney is also a long-term investment method.

If you really take too much cash at once, in addition to considering tax issues, you also need to find a good place to invest the money. "

Xia Jingxing said, "This is simple. After Marvel shareholders get the money, they can subscribe to the hedge fund under Vision Capital."

Parmut's eyes lit up. Vision Capital's hedge fund has established a brand in the upper class of the United States. It made sixty times in three years, the Stanford University Endowment made billions of dollars, and Bill Gates invested in it. good……

The spread was so miraculous, as if the value of the investment would have doubled several times.

Parmut really loves money, otherwise he wouldn't have made all kinds of leaps and bounds when selling the company.

He suppressed the excitement in his heart and said calmly: "With US$3.4 billion in cash, Marvel is yours."

"You don't have to wait three days, can you sign the contract today?" Abel asked in a skeptical tone.

Pamut's expression remained unchanged. He only thought for a few seconds before saying, "No need to wait. I have obtained the authorization from the board of directors and can sign the contract today."

The old man has really figured it out these days. Even though each of the six major film companies has a market value of tens of billions of dollars, in fact, the stalls are too big and they don’t have much money in their pockets. None of them dares to offer an all-cash acquisition plan.

For someone like him who grew up through hardships, of course it would be safer to take cash.

And "Iron Man" is about to be released. Who knows what the situation is. Anyway, the acquisition bid has already regarded "Iron Man" as a successful project to calculate the valuation, and they don't need to take this risk anymore.

He estimated that Vision Capital and Darren would not give him a third chance. After all, Friedrich only had one beautiful daughter.

Abel looked at Xia Jingxing and asked his boss for his opinion. The latter nodded slightly to him.

Xia Jingxing probably remembered that in the previous life, Disney spent more than four billion US dollars to acquire Marvel, but it was more than a year later than in this life. At that time, "Iron Man" and "The Incredible Hulk" were both released. One made a profit and the other lost. It interrupted the upward momentum of Marvel Studios, but it paved the way for the Marvel Universe plan, and thus attracted the attention of Disney.

He definitely didn't want to risk delaying more difficult negotiations until after "Iron Man" was released. At that time, "The Incredible Hulk" hadn't been released yet and was on the market. Who knows what kind of offer the old man in front of him would make, and what Disney would do. We will not enter the market to compete for Marvel at all costs, and these factors need to be taken into consideration.

Then again, the US$5 billion of the Equinox Fund is not your own money. You can spend it casually, and it doesn't matter if the return rate is a little lower.

His purpose is to create a benchmark case that will facilitate the raising of larger PE investment funds in the future. For example, Lixia Fund's sixty-fold return in three years directly put Vision Capital on the altar, and also allowed Vision Capital to raise funds to short subprime mortgages. funds, and then jumped from small and medium-sized funds to large funds.

After getting the boss's instruction, Abel took Pamut to go through the formalities.

He had the door locked directly. In short, he would never let the cunning old Jewish man leave until the contract was signed today.
