Rebirth of Xiangjiang - 1978

It didn't take long for little Alan Ryder to rush over. When he entered the coffee shop, little Alan Ryder was surprised to find that sitting next to Mattie Lynn was Lin Daoqiu.

As soon as he saw this scene, young Alan Ryder immediately realized that Lin Daoqiu's meeting with Mattie Lynn must be to acquire her shares in Fox.

Fortunately, he arrived in time, otherwise once it was negotiated by Lin Daoqiu, the other party's shares would reach 50%, which would be a big bad thing for little Alan Ryder.

"Hello, Ms. Mattie, nice to meet you. I didn't expect Mr. Lin to be here too."

Little Alan Ryder walked to the seat and sat down, then greeted Mattie Lynn and Lin Daoqiu with a smile.

It seemed that the expression on his face was very relaxed, and those who didn't know it thought that little Alan Ryder was just here to drink coffee.

"Speaking of which, Chairman Alan and I haven't seen each other for several months. You two should be old acquaintances. In that case, I don't need to introduce you."

Mattie Lynn obviously didn't want little Alan Ryder to expose her little trick, so she had to take the initiative to lead the conversation elsewhere.

"More than just old acquaintances, Chairman Alan and I have been cooperating for almost ten years. Speaking of which, we are old friends."

Lin Daoqiu looked at little Alan Ryder and smiled.

In fact, he admired Alan Ryder Jr. and even told him before that even if he acquired Fox Film Company, Lin Daoqiu would still let him run the company.

But unfortunately, little Alan Ryder's vanity did not allow him to take this job. The best result for him was that Lin Daoqiu's acquisition failed, and it was best for the film company to remain as is.

But unfortunately, little Alan Ryder also knew that these beautiful ideas had turned into his extravagant hopes.

At this time, Lin Daoqiu already controlled 39% of Fox's shares, leaving only 11% that Mattie Lynn had not yet bought.

Even if Lin Daoqiu did not buy Mattie Lynn's shares in the end, he is now the second largest shareholder of Fox, and it is no exaggeration to say that he has become a person who works for him.

In fact, Alan Ryder Jr. had no chance of winning from the beginning. After all, Lin Daoqiu had money and people, and it would not be difficult for him to acquire Fox Film Company.

And now Lin Daoqiu's target seems to be not just Fox Film Company, because his shares own the entire Fox Company, including the TV station founded by Murdoch.

Little Alan Ryder thought to himself that Lin Daoqiu was so eager to acquire all the shares except Murdoch's, that he might be forcing the other party to make a swap with him.

If Lin Daoqiu once controls 50% of Fox's shares by then, and Murdoch still insists on not selling, then the fun is about to begin.

After all, at that time, with Lin Daoqiu's wealth, Murdoch would be unable to resist any attempt he made. In the final analysis, Murdoch was not as wealthy as Lin Daoqiu, so he was destined to be a loser.

"I have only heard people talk about this before, but I didn't expect that the relationship between the two of you is so good. Originally, I was thinking about asking Chairman Alan to help me advise on how to deal with the shares in my hand."

Mattie Lynn said that the person she was looking at was little Alan Ryder, because the purpose of bringing him here was very simple, which was to help her raise the price.

When Murdoch knew that Lin Daoqiu had started to acquire Fox's shares, he had already called Mattie Lynn and told him the price they were offering Lin Daoqiu.

If converted in this way, excluding debt, Mattie Lynn's shares are worth US$325 million at this time.

Of course, this was Murdoch's offer, and Lin Daoqiu did not accept it at the time, so the price was not actually established.

But Mattie Lynn was clearly attracted by the price, and she was in a very good position at this time.

As long as Lin Daoqiu buys the shares in her hands, the gap between Lin Daoqiu and Murdoch will no longer exist, and Lin Daoqiu will be able to take the absolute initiative.

But Mattie Lynn also knew very well that it would be extremely difficult to ask Lin Daoqiu to spend 300 million to buy the shares in her hands, so she asked Alan Ryder Jr. to help.

"In my opinion, these shares in your hands are now very valuable. If you want to sell them, I suggest you consider selling them to Mr. Murdoch."

"Mr. Murdoch? Well, your suggestion is good. Maybe I can have a good chat with Mr. Murdoch."

Seeing Mattie Lynn and little Alan Ryder singing together, Lin Daoqiu couldn't help but want to laugh.

If they didn't own shares in Fox, it would be useful for them to do this, but now that they control nearly 40% of Fox's shares, they have much more room for manipulation than before.

At this time, if you want to rip off, you can say that Mattie Lynn is taking it for granted.

"Before you go to Mr. Murdoch, would you be interested in hearing my offer?"

"Of course there is no problem. I will welcome anyone interested in acquiring my shares, but it must be at a price that satisfies me."

Mattie Lynn thought she was on top now, but she didn't know that her thoughts were actually completely wrong.

"You own a total of 11% of Fox's shares, and my offer to you is US$120 million."

When Maddie Lynn heard Lin Daoqiu's offer, the smile on her face suddenly froze, and then she saw Maddie Lynn slowly put her smile away.

"Mr. Lin, your joke is really funny, but we are talking about business now. I hope you can save your joke for later, okay?"

The price of 120 million was a full 200 million less than Maddie Lynn's expected price. How could she accept it?

Even little Alan Ryder next to him couldn't help but laugh, because he felt that Lin Daoqiu obviously didn't want to close the deal by raising such a price. Otherwise, how could he do this?

"Ms. Mattie, I am very serious about making this offer, and I believe that this price can correctly reflect the price of the shares in your hand. Of course, I have no objection to this being meaningful to you."

When Maddie Lynn's smile faded, it could be said that her mood suddenly turned very bad, as if she had suddenly lost 200 million US dollars for no reason. This feeling was not good at all.

Mattie Lynn really couldn't understand how Lin Daoqiu dared to offer such an outrageous price in front of her. But she had heard that the price offered by Lin Daoqiu when he purchased other people's shares was twice as much.

But when he got here, the price was suddenly doubled. What did this guy think of himself? A girl who was ignorant of the world?

"Mr. Lin, not only do I have strong objections to this, but I am in a very bad mood right now. I hope you can give your offer very sincerely and honestly, otherwise our negotiation will end."

"One hundred and twenty million, this is my offer, and it is also my final offer. If Ms. Mattie is not willing to accept it, then I have nothing to say. Please make your own decision."
