Resource Tycoon Reborn

Chapter seventy-ninth difficult to wish

Sony is a listed company, and its equity can be said to be quite dispersed. Therefore, although Citibank only holds less than 10% of the shares, it is already the largest shareholder of Sony. Among the top ten shareholders,

Goldman Sachs International Asset Management, the company with the smallest shareholding, holds only 1.24% of the shares.

Of course, this is only for the public to see on the surface. In fact, in today's era, only specific departments of the government know who actually controls Sony's equity. The intricate equity,

It is not only the wealthy who hide the real owners of the company in order to avoid taxes and avoid publicity. However, no matter how you say it, 3.4% of the shares is not a small amount, enough to allow Fang Mingyuan to join the board of directors

And he has a certain right to speak. Moreover, with Fang Mingyuan's current net worth and reputation, as well as the cooperative relationship between the Fang family's companies and Sony, his voice in the board of directors will be additionally strengthened!

Many thoughts flashed through Tsunao Tairatsune's mind. If Fang Mingyuan could become a director of the company... and with how busy he is, he might not have time to pay attention to Sony's affairs for a long time, and he would definitely entrust someone he trusts to represent him.

, as a senior executive of Sony, if he can get the support of a strong director... his power and voice in the company will undoubtedly expand astonishingly!

Although Sony has lost its former glory, it is still a world-renowned multinational enterprise. Its annual sales revenue can still reach tens of billions of dollars. As its executives, whether in Japan or anywhere in the world

The country can still enjoy the treatment of the upper-class elite. Moreover, for senior executives, the salary and benefits they receive every year are still very satisfactory to them.

However, Tsunao Taira has calmed down quickly. His father, Taira Jiro, has warned him many times not to play tricks in front of Fang Mingyuan. A person who can achieve his current status from scratch is definitely worthy of the title.

He is a genius. Even if he can hide it for a while, he can't hide it forever. When the time comes, he will lose the strong support of Fang Mingyuan, and may even turn against each other, which is not worth the gain.

"Fang Jun, although I don't know where your 3.4% of the shares come from, judging from your usual behavior, just serving as a director in the company will not make you

You feel satisfied." Tsunao Tairatsune said with a wry smile, "If you plan to control Sony step by step, then of course you need to hold shares. And if you don't plan to control Sony, then at the right time

It is undoubtedly more appropriate to sell, or exchange with Sony for something you are interested in."

"I heard that your company's LCD TV business has been losing money for the seventh consecutive year. The total loss exceeds US$5 billion. Does your company's board of directors intend to transfer it?" Fang Mingyuan asked directly.

Tsunao Tairatsune was surprised. Sony had dominated the TV business for decades. In the era of picture tubes, Sony had dominated the world with the excellent quality of Trinitron TVs. At that time, he probably never imagined that one day

, the TV business will become a heavy burden for itself. It is precisely because the quality of Trinitron TV is so good that Sony, which is unwilling to give up CRT technology, miscalculated the development prospects of LCD TVs. The result was that until 2005, Sony

Only then did we officially decide to give up the follow-up research and development of plasma TVs and crt TVs, and focus entirely on the research, development, production, and sales of LCD TVs.

However, the global market for LCD TVs has been divided up by its competitors, Sharp, Samsung, LG, Deguang Electronics and other companies. Every leader of Sony hopes that the TV business can once again copy Terry's performance under their direct leadership.

Despite the glory of the Long Era, Sony was unwilling to give up the TV business, which now accounts for less than 10% of the entire group company's total revenue. However, it backfired. Sony TV's performance has never improved, and it has become a part of Sony.

Big baggage.

"Fang Jun, I'm afraid the board of directors won't agree on this matter." Tsunao Tairasu pondered for a moment and said. Although the outside world has been speculating when Sony will give up its TV business, and Sony's TV business

Business losses have also continued to add fuel to this speculation. However, it is quite clear within Sony that the top management attaches great importance to the TV business. They may choose new partners or "downsize", but they will not give up.

"Oh...can you tell me the reason?" Fang Mingyuan asked with a smile.

"The TV business was one of Sony's most brilliant products in the past. Of course, Sony had many brilliant products back then, but with the changes of the times, many products have completely withdrawn from the market. If you want to see them, I'm afraid

It’s time to enter the collectibles market.” Tsunao Tairatsune sighed and continued, “As of now, although Sony still has many products, they can be placed in the living room and can be used frequently and attract attention.

There are only TVs and PS series game consoles left." Tsunao Tairatsune glanced at Fang Mingyuan covertly, some of Sony's classic products were terminated, and Fang Mingyuan also had a share of his "contribution"!

Fang Mingyuan nodded with understanding. Although the dominance of televisions in the living room has been seriously challenged with the rise of computers and mobile phones, for a normal family, televisions are still indispensable.

One of Sony's home appliances. This can be regarded as Sony's attempt to maintain its relationship with consumers.

"So, Sony will not sell out its TV business?" Fang Mingyuan clapped his hands and said. Although this result did not surprise him, he still felt very sorry. If Sony's TV business could be acquired

In the past, it played an important role for Deguang Electronics Group Co., Ltd. and Samsung Group in continuing to expand their market share in their own countries and even overseas.

Tsunao Tairatsune spread his hands and said: "Of course, nothing is absolute. If Fang Jun offers us a price that we cannot refuse, it may impress the board of directors, but I think you will definitely not accept it, Fang Jun."

"Fang Mingyuan burst into laughter. Of course he would not be taken advantage of. Samsung Group and Deguang Electronics Group now have the ability to produce LCD TVs. The acquisition of Sony's TV business is just the icing on the cake, not a timely help.

"That's a pity." Fang Mingyuan said with some regret. These 3.4% of the shares are an apology from the Yasuda family and the Iwasaki family. As Tsunao Tairatsune thought, although these shares are enough to make Fang Mingyuan in Sony's board of directors

He has a certain right to speak, but it is not enough to influence Sony's development direction, which is a bit useless.

"Ping Jingjun, please help me find out if anyone is willing to buy these shares." Fang Mingyuan stood up and said, "I think your company's board of directors doesn't want me to sell these shares on the stock market, right?"

Sony's stock price is still at a low level, but if it wants to digest 3.4% of its shares in the stock market, its stock price will definitely continue to fall. And in that case, the procedures will be too cumbersome and the time required will be too long.

It will be longer. Although it is naturally impossible to get a high price when selling Sony's shares at this time, converting the shares into cash and taking the opportunity to acquire other companies with greater potential, or investing in the construction of new production bases,

It's also a good choice.

"Hi, that's what Fang Jun said." Tsunao Tairatsune quickly stood up and nodded in response.

Tsunao Hiraike watched Fang Mingyuan's car drive away, but he felt a little regretful in his heart. Fang Mingyuan came and went in a hurry this time. He originally wanted to talk about whether there could be any cooperation between Columbia Pictures and Kumho Film Group of Hong Kong.

If there is any new cooperation, Hong Kong Kumho Film Group's gains in the global film market are really enviable. However, Fang Mingyuan did not give him a chance to speak.

Early the next morning, Tsunao Tairatsune went to Sony headquarters on time. As soon as he stepped into his office, his secretary had already stood up and bowed and said: "President, the chairman just called and asked you to report to him as soon as possible."

check in."

"Ah?" Tsunao Tairatsune was startled for a moment, then nodded, indicating that he understood.

On the 19th, these artists from **Entertainment Group conducted many rehearsals. Although they are all proven stage veterans, this charity concert can be said to be related to **Entertainment.

The face of the group company is also related to their future status and profits in the Japanese market. Although they have been able to get to where they are today, there are some people who are rich and beautiful, but most of them are still very transparent in terms of human nature and sophistication.

Naturally, we can understand that although these concerts will not get any money, they will give them an opportunity to significantly increase their popularity in Japan. Such an opportunity is not something that everyone can strive for. Although Japan is still in the aftermath of the

Continuously, but Fang Mingyuan and Li Xiuman have come in person, so what reason do artists like them have to hold back?

Moreover, they all heard the news that the concert's ticket sales department set a record of selling out nearly 170,000 seats in 21 hours and 41 minutes. They were also very excited. You can imagine that by then

These three concerts were grand events, so each of these artists rehearsed very actively in order to present their best side to the audience.

In the afternoon, the tired artists were divided into small groups, waiting for the logistics department to deliver meals. There was also the last rehearsal in the evening.
