After meeting Anthony, Li Mochen signed a share transfer contract with Dacia Rockefeller, transferring 3% of his shares in Xuri Electrical Appliances Retail Company to her.
Although Li Mochen was stingy and greedy, he was a man of his word. Since he had agreed to this, he would not go back on his word.
However, Dacia took the initiative to raise the purchase price and decided to buy Li Mochen's shares at a valuation of 50 billion, which was 1.5 billion federal dollars in cash.
The transfer contract was set in year 3989 of the Radiant Calendar, which was the end of February next year. It would take effect after Dacia Rockefeller made the payment.
This was not because Dacia had no funds, but to avoid taxes, the income from stock trading in America was subject to capital gains tax. Since it was short-term capital income, which was capital income with a holding period of less than one year, it had to be calculated at the ordinary income tax rate.
Although the tax rate was capped at 35%, it was still a few hundred million gold duns, which was very distressing.
Next February, after the tax filing season, the transaction would be completed, and Li Mochen would be able to use a whole year to handle the tax avoidance and exemption matters.
"Actually, it is still profitable. Father and I are very optimistic about the future of Xuri Company. It will be a listed company with a market value of trillions in the future."
When the two parties exchanged the contract, Dacia smiled and held Li Mochen's hand. "Father asked me to tell you that if you have any problems with your business, you can look for him. You don't have to be polite with us. You saved my life this time. You are our friend, and the door of the Rockefeller Family will always be open to you. "
"I will. Send my regards to your father. But Dacia, are you really going to leave now? Are you not going to stay in Atlanta for a while? I haven't done my duty as a host. If it is for your safety, you can rest assured. I can guarantee that you will not encounter any danger in this city. "
Li Mochen was very enthusiastic about the son of the Minister of Finance.
His father, Lawrence Rockefeller, was only 45 years old. His future was far beyond the Minister of Finance.
Since the beginning of the current presidency, Lawrence had made remarkable achievements in the two years he had been in office. He had pulled America's bad economy out of the quagmire after the financial crisis.
Therefore, the current president had a high chance of being re-elected, and Lawrence Rockefeller's reputation among the people and the business world was also rising. In the future, he was likely to hold the position of Secretary of State.
And the Rockefeller family, starting from their ancestor, John Davidson Rockefeller, had been in the political world. By now, he had formed a huge network of connections — which was even enough for Li Mochen to rely on in the political arena.
Dassia shook her head with a wry smile. "Forget it. I'm not in the mood to continue playing after something like this happened. Now, my mother and grandmother were also worried that if we didn't hurry back, our manor would be hit by a tornado. Also, I can see that you are very busy right now, right? I can imagine how many things you have on your hands, so let's talk about it in the future. Maybe when you come to Manhattan one day, I'll take you to experience the magic of the world's largest city. "
Li Mochen was just saying some polite words, but he didn't insist after Dacia firmly rejected him. But that afternoon, he still took time to personally send her to Hartsfield-Jackson International Airport.
Due to the continuous activation of the anti-magic field in Atlanta in the past few days, the operating speed of the international airport had been greatly reduced. It was necessary to strictly implement security checks to exclude all magic professionals above level-5.
So when they arrived at the airport, there were a large number of tourists there, and all the flights for today and tomorrow were full.
But for Dassia, this was not a problem. The Rockefeller family directly sent a private plane over, then cut the queue and took off to pick up Dassia and her entourage.
Shortly after sending Dassia off, Li Mochen was on his way back to the Unicorn Apartment when he received a call from Ms. Drew.
"Mandiwen Ferguson? Ferguson Culture and Media Company? "
Li Mochen could not help but narrow his eyes. "Are you sure he attacked us?"
"That's right. Just today alone, we've lost three advertising sponsors."
Ms. Nannet Drew sighed. "Boss, I'm not blaming you, but I think your style of 'if people don't attack me, I won't attack' should sometimes be flexible. You clearly have the strength, so why don't you take the initiative to attack? Do you know? He doesn't even intend to let your comics go. Not only does he block the sellers, but he also intends to sue in court on the grounds of excessive promotion of violence. Of course, this is only a small problem, and I have a way to solve it. The problem now is that he is very greedy, and has already set his sights on the Georgia Post. "
"I understand, Ms. Drew. I will resolve this matter as soon as possible."
Li Mochen rubbed the space between his eyebrows, suppressing the rising anger in his chest. He knew that he had been treated as a soft persimmon by the guy named Mandiwen Ferguson.
But he really could not be blamed for being soft-hearted in this matter. He had been so busy recently that he did not have the time to care about this guy.
At this time, Li Mochen remembered something. "I forgot to say, Ms. Drew, I have now fully acquired Firefly Media. You can start building a team now. Tomorrow, you will be my representative to enter Firefly and help me take over this media company. In my plan, Firefly Media will merge with Rising Sun Publishing to form a comprehensive media company, and you are my natural choice for CEO. "
Nannet Drew was very surprised, and then exclaimed, "You've already acquired Firefly Media? That Mr. Richest Man is so fast. It's done so quickly. "
"Yes, it's done, but it cost more than a hundred million. Of course, I didn't pay for it. Ms. Drew, this is a satellite phone. We can talk about the details later. "
"Understood, but to be honest, I have not heard of a case of a satellite phone being leaked or being bugged."
After Ms. Drew complained, she asked tentatively, "Boss, I guess you won't let me go to Firefly Media empty-handed? That Southern Cable Television Station is very expensive. "
Li Mochen also knew that this pay-per-view television station had to use more exciting programs to maintain and increase its subscribers. At present, Southern Cable Television Station only had three million paying subscribers, which was simply not enough to support this television station to achieve a balance of payments.
Flag Hunt Group had already spent more than two billion gold duns in two years, but in the end, Firefly Media was transferred to him for less than 600 million. From this, it could be seen that this television station still had a long way to go.
However, this time, Li Mochen still pondered for a moment. "Within half a year, a total of one billion gold duns will be increased. You can announce this on my behalf at the board meeting. Of which, I can transfer 300 million gold duns to the company's account within a week. The remaining 700 million will be set after the tax reporting season. In addition, you can also help me announce a cash incentive plan. If the television stations and newspapers under Rising Sun Media can achieve a subscription growth of more than 30% next year, I will personally take out 100 million gold duns as a bonus for the relevant personnel. "
"Boss, you are so generous!"
Ms. Drew's words were full of praise, but then her tone changed. "However, Boss, since you are rich in funds and have a new relationship with the higher-ups, I have a new idea. Now, I have a new idea. I might not even need to use violent means to make Mandiwen Ferguson go bankrupt. "
