To Feng Yu's satisfaction, CCTV had removed 6 advertising slots, and one of them was a primetime slot. Station Chief Jia had told Feng Yu that he would be buying all the advertising slots at once, and he had to give Feng Yu a discount. Feng Yu calculated that based on the initial purchase price, the price he was paying now was less than half of the original price.
Station Chief Jia also hinted to Feng Yu that next year's auction might still be closed bidding. But he promised Feng Yu that he would be able to win more advertising slots. He could also write a special column for Feng Yu's designated unit.
Old Jia was very generous!
This time, there were enough advertisements. Feng Yu had wanted to advertise on the radio if there were not enough advertisements. After leaving CCTV, Feng Yu headed towards the airport. Masao Kameda had arrived in Beijing, and Feng Yu had instructed him to do some work.
… …
"Boss, please come and fetch me personally. I can just take a taxi." Masao Kameda was terrified that Feng Yu would come to fetch him personally.
In Japanese's mindset, the hierarchy was very clear. It was always the superiors giving orders to the subordinates. Approachable? That was not a good boss!
"Alright. Stop bowing. Are you afraid that others do not know that you are Japanese? Hurry up and get in the car. We still have work to do. "Feng Yu scolded.
On the way, Masao Kameda was telling Feng Yu about the Sixth Sense Company's operations. All his initial targets had been achieved, and he had an idea to get the company listed!
Tokyo was the world's second biggest financial city. The Sixth Sense Company's profits had increased by leaps and bounds in the past two years. In the future, it will be the world's sex toy industry leader. Of course, it should be listed.
After it was listed, the company's share prices would rise along with the market. Also, the taxes on the shares were too high. If it was a rights issue, then the taxes could be waived.
Also, Masao Kameda wants to give some equity incentives to those who started the business with him. Before the shares are listed, they can buy a portion of the shares internally. The price of the shares will be much lower than the market price. This is also an incentive for the employees, and it is a common method used by many big companies.
Masao Kameda had spoken to Feng Yu over the phone. Feng Yu did not object to the listing, but he felt that it should not be listed in Japan. Japan's stock market had not recovered from the crash. Even if Feng Yu got listed, there will not be any profits. Because the Japanese have no money now, how much can the stock price rise?
Feng Yu's idea was to list the company in the US and earn money from the Americans. The Americans are rich now, and the US stock market is in its slow bull phase. Also, there were no sex toy companies listed in the US, and this was a good thing for the Sixth Sense Company.
As long as Feng Yu controlled the number of shares, he will still own more than 50% of the company's shares. He will still be the company's major shareholder and have the most authority over the company.
But after the company was listed, Feng Yu will no longer be the controlling shareholder. He will not have any say in the company. But the company's main shareholders were still him and Masao Kameda. Feng Yu had nothing to worry about.
Feng Yu had only set up this Sixth Sense company for fun, and the total investment was not a lot. Now, he had already recovered his investment. Under Masao Kameda's management, the Sixth Sense company was surprisingly successful. If it got listed, it would be beneficial for Feng Yu.
Feng Yu could cash out a portion of the company's shares in exchange for a sum of money. He can continue to invest in other companies' shares or use the money to acquire other companies he is interested in.
At the hotel, Masao Kameda took out some documents from his luggage. The documents were written in Chinese and showed them to Feng Yu.
Feng Yu only looked at the types of products, sales volume, market share and profits in different regions.
"Kameda, our inflatable dolls are the world's top seller now?" Feng Yu's eyes opened wide. Kameda Masao had also settled the European market so quickly. Kameda Masao is too cool!
Masao Kameda was proud of himself and immediately changed to a humble look. "It's all because of your guidance that our company can achieve what it is today. The luckiest thing that happened to me in my life was meeting you, Boss. "
Feng Yu looked at Masao Kameda. Hmmm … … This flattery is good!
"Sigh … … Don't say that. It's because you are capable that you can achieve these results." Feng Yu was also "humble".
"Without your investment, the Sixth Sense company will not be what it is today. Without your guidance, the company will not be successful. Without your support and trust, I, Masao Kameda, will not be who I am today!"
"Ok, ok. I know." Feng Yu was grinning from ear to ear.
Even if he did not make much profits from his previous investments, he could only break even. With Kameda Masao's bootlicking skills, Feng Yu felt it was worth it!
"Tell me your thoughts on the listing of the company." Feng Yu patted Kameda Masao's shoulder to stop him from praising him.
"Our company had been operating since the 1990s. There is nothing much to say in the first year. Based on your request, our fiscal year is different from other Japanese companies. Our fiscal year ends in December. That's why we have two years of good revenue. After the third year of profits, it should be easy for us to get listed. That's why I want to start preparing now and get listed on the Tokyo Stock Exchange early next year. "
Feng Yu shook his head. "Tokyo's stock market is not good. Let's change to New York. I think New York is a good option. Japan's economy is not doing well, and we will not be able to make a lot of money after we get listed. Most importantly, those employees who had bought the company's shares will be the ones suffering losses. Let's get listed in the US. The US stock market is doing well now, and we will be able to make profits quickly after we get listed. Based on our company's revenue, the share prices will rise, and it will be more suitable than getting listed in Japan. What do you think? "
"What Boss said is the same as what my consultant said. Seems like I still do not know much about the capital market. But luckily, Boss is around. If not, the company will suffer losses! "Masao Kameda said.
"After we get listed, how many shares should we issue?" Feng Yu asked.
"Around 30%. Let the company's employees buy 2.5% of the shares. Is it okay?" Masao Kameda asked.
Masao Kameda was more inclined to issue more shares. But he knew Feng Yu will not agree.
"It doesn't matter if it is more or less. Since you said so, then it is settled. What's the initial price you're going to set?
"10 USD per share. Is this okay?" Masao Kameda calculated in his heart and gave his answer.
"10 USD per share? Based on our company's scale and business development, this price is too conservative. 10 USD per share should be the company's share price, and it should be at least 20 USD to the public! Don't think that this price is too high. Our company's profitability is right there, and I can guarantee that there will be people who will buy our shares. I can also guarantee that our share prices will rise! It will not be a problem to double or even quadruple our share prices! "Feng Yu said confidently.
20 USD per share? That means if the company got listed, the company's market value will double? If he could double or quadruple it, wouldn't he become a millionaire with a net worth of hundreds of millions of dollars? Kameda Masao's eyes flashed with two large "$- $" signs.
