Lei Liquan, the chairman of Kowloon Jianye, was not an idiot. He quickly remembered that on Jia Yapeng's business card, the words "Daqian Group" were written.
"Is this a company?"
"It's unlikely. Although the name is the same, there can be two companies named Daqian in Fusang and Hua Xia!" Lei Liquan muttered in his heart, but finally decided to call a friend of his in Fusang, and this friend's name was Sakaguchi Hironobu.
"Mr. Sakaguchi, how have you been?" Lei Liquan asked with a smile. He and Sakaguchi Hironobu were old friends. When Final Fantasy was doing marketing in Hong Kong, he borrowed Kowloon Jianye's shop. The two sides also established a certain relationship at that time.
Although Sakaguchi Hironobu didn't know why Lei Liquan suddenly called him, he couldn't lose this friend, so he greeted him warmly.
"Mr. Sakaguchi, have you heard of the Daqian company? It's the company that sells Yu-Gi-Oh cards! "Lei Liquan finally couldn't help but ask after a long polite conversation.
In Fusang, perhaps other companies didn't know about the Daqian, but Sakaguchi Hironobu was definitely the person who knew the Daqian best.
Sakaguchi Hironobu was an honest person. After selling 5 million sets of "Pokemon", Sakaguchi Hironobu had just published an apology letter in an unknown computer magazine. He only used three words to apologize to "Pokemon".
The so-called person who knows you best is often your enemy. Naturally, Sakaguchi Hironobu couldn't let go of the Daqian company. He used all kinds of means to collect Daqian information crazily. He knew a lot about the Daqian company.
"Of course, this is a very shameless company!" Sakaguchi Hironobu gritted his teeth and said.
"Oh!" Lei Liquan's eyelids twitched. "I heard that the boss of this company is actually a Hua Xia. I wonder if it's true!"
"Yes, I didn't expect Lei Kun to be so well-informed. Outsiders have always thought that the president of the Daqian is Ichiro Honda, but only a few people know that the real chairman of the Daqian is actually a Hua Xia man called Jia Yapeng!"
"Thunder Monarch, why are you asking me these questions? Did this Jia Yapeng come to you? "Sakaguchi Hironobu reacted quickly and asked immediately.
"That's right. He gave me his name card and said that he was coming to find me!" Lei Liquan said.
"No!" Sakaguchi Hironobu immediately said, "He is a greedy villain. Rei-kun, you must reject him, or you will be deceived by him. He pretended to be a secretary and deceived me!"
Sakaguchi Hironobu sincerely persuaded Lei Liquan. Lei Liquan immediately promised on the phone that he would not see Jia Yapeng.
After hanging up, Lei Liquan immediately asked his son, "Do you know about Pokemon?"
"Of course I know!" Lei Liquan's son immediately said, "This is the most fun game in the world. I have already caught more than 150 Pokemon. I just don't know about the three mythical birds …"
"Wait, I don't want to know about these things. I just want to know how the game is selling."
"How would I know? But it seems that Nintendo said in the magazine that the total sales last month had exceeded three million copies. Now it is estimated that it has exceeded five million copies! "The little guy said.
"Five million copies! Doesn't that mean that you have earned 20 billion yen? " Lei Liquan immediately reacted. He didn't know much about the game industry and didn't know that Boss Jia's share of the profits from the five million sales was not much.
However, Lei Liquan had hit the jackpot. After all, Boss Jia had a few 20 billion yen.
So Lei Liquan immediately threw Sakaguchi Hironobu's words and asked the secretary to invite Boss Jia up enthusiastically. Then he changed into a decent set of clothes … Looking at his dirty son, Lei Liquan also rushed his son to change clothes.
"I'm not changing!" The little guy was unwilling at first.
"This Jia Yapeng is the boss of Daqian. The Pokemon and Yu-Gi-Oh are both his. Whatever you want, as long as he agrees, it will be something that you can get!" As soon as Lei Liquan said that, the little guy immediately rushed into the chairman's office to change clothes in the lounge.
"Phew! I hope there will be a turnaround this time! "Lei Liquan took a deep breath.
It must be known that Lei Liquan had a very difficult matter recently, and he also had a very big opportunity. However, after asking everyone, no one was willing to help him. This made Lei Liquan very worried.
So when the confused Boss Jia met Lei Liquan and both sides greeted each other, the first thing Lei Liquan said shocked Boss Jia. "Mr. Jia, are you here to buy Kowloon Jianye?"
— — —
"What's going on?" Boss Jia was a little confused. He was only here to buy New Arts City. How did it suddenly become Kowloon Jianye, a real estate company in Hong Kong?
On the other side, Lei Liquan said to himself, "It's a bit shameful to say it out loud. I didn't expect that news about me would spread to the mainland and make Mr. Jia come all the way here. Sorry for troubling you."
"Ahem!" Jia Yapeng coughed and interrupted Lei Liquan's muttering. Then, he said, "Mr. Lei, did you misunderstand something? I'm not here to buy Kowloon Jianye."
"What?" Lei Liquan was stunned for a moment, then asked, "Didn't you tell my secretary that you're here to talk about the acquisition?"
"You seem to have misunderstood. I want to buy your company's Princess Jin Entertainment Co., Ltd., not Kowloon Jianye!" Jia Yapeng shook his head.
"What?" Lei Liquan's expression was a little awkward. He didn't expect Jia Yapeng to be here to buy Princess Jin. This was because Princess Jin was created to control New Arts City.
Now that New Arts City was finished, there was no need for Princess Jin to exist. The entire company was basically dismissed. There wasn't a single person left. Only the capital was left. Lei Liquan didn't expect Jia Yapeng to be here to buy Princess Jin!
"I wonder why Mr. Jia wants to buy Princess Jin?" Lei Liquan asked curiously.
"To be honest, I've been investing in Hong Kong's movie market recently, but it hasn't been very smooth. So, I want to buy a local company. I think Princess Jin is more suitable. The price should be very cheap!" Boss Jia said with a smile, making Lei Liquan depressed.
Yes, Princess Jin had nothing left except for some copyrights. Of course, it would be cheap.
In this era, movie copyrights were extremely unimportant. This was because once the movie left the screening period, there was basically no other opportunity to earn profits.
After all, there were no online video websites in this era. There were also no video rental shops. At most, there was only the income from video cassettes. However, the production cost of video cassettes was high and the price was expensive. Ordinary people wouldn't buy video cassettes. They would only choose to rent video cassettes from specialized rental shops. This led to the video cassettes not earning much profit.
Moreover, the copyrights of video cassettes were usually sold to major film companies. Now, they weren't in Princess Jin's hands. So, in everyone's eyes, movie copyrights were basically worthless.
In Lei Liquan's mind, Boss Jia was really aiming for Princess Jin's brand and license.
So, Lei Liquan asked straightforwardly, "I wonder how much Mr. Jia wants to spend to buy Princess Jin?"
"I remember that there was a film company deal before. It was similar to Princess Jin. It was sold for 5 million HKD. I won't let Mr. Lei suffer a loss. It's the same 5 million HKD!" Jia Yapeng said.
"Sure!" Lei Liquan felt that this price was very suitable. It was even a little high. Because he had sold a film company before, there were still two movies that hadn't been released yet. In addition, he had some professional staff. So, he could sell it for 5 million HKD.
Princess Jin was just an empty shell. It was very lucky to be able to get 5 million HKD.
However, Lei Liquan was still a little worried that Jia Yapeng would go back on his word, so he added, "There's something I have to make clear to Mr. Jia. All the copyrights of Princess Jin's video cassettes have been sold. The copyrights of the sequels have also been sold."
"Especially the True Colors of Heroes series and the Happy Ghost series. The copyrights that can be sold are basically sold. If Mr. Jia wants these two copyrights, I'm afraid that he won't be able to get what he wants!"
"It doesn't matter. As long as the main copyrights are still in the hands of Princess Jin, there's no problem!" Jia Yapeng said lightly.
"Of course, all the main copyrights are in our hands!" Lei Liquan laughed. So, the transaction between the two sides went very smoothly. Soon, they settled the purchase of Princess Jin.
"Right!" Boss Jia changed the topic, "I just heard that Mr. Lei wants to sell Kowloon Jianye. I don't know if it's true or not? If the price is right, I'm a little interested! "
