Manufacturing Empire in the Valley

Chapter 2219 Mitsui Ryu's gift
This air journey was so enjoyable that time passed before I knew it.After the plane landed, the four of them felt unfinished.

After getting off the plane, the four saw a large group of people and a long luxury convoy.Standing at the front of the crowd was Ryu Mitsui. Before the four of them got off the spiral staircase, Ryu Mitsui came up with a group of senior managers and greeted the four of them very politely.

The two sides exchanged greetings on the tarmac for a while, and then Ryu Mitsui arranged for four of them to sit in his private car that he had flown in today.

This is an extended version of the car with the Rolls-Royce logo printed on it, but this model has never been made public for the market. It is estimated that Rolls-Royce should be a custom model specially made for the super rich.

In addition to the driver, the co-pilot also had a butler in this car.The cab and the rear space are separated by a baffle, and guests can communicate with the butler sitting in the co-pilot through the car phone.

The space in the back row was very large, besides Ryu Mitsui and the four guests, there were also two women in waitress uniforms kneeling on the floor inside the car.

These two women are both over 30 years old and look very calm.When Ryu Mitsui ordered them to bring wine to the guests through gestures, Niu Xiaoqiang and the others knew that the two middle-aged women were deaf-mute.

Niu Xiaoqiang had to secretly admire the carefulness of the Mitsui Consortium. Using deaf-mute people as waiters can prevent secrets from being leaked out. This arrangement is really ingenious and thoughtful.

A group of people were drinking and chatting in the car. In less than 10 minutes, the team came to a private villa on the mountainside.

This is the famous Beverly Hills. As soon as everyone got out of the car, Mitsui Ryu introduced with a smile: "Dear guests, I bought this villa with money some time ago. It is currently my only property in the United States. I usually I seldom come to live here, if you need it, you can come here to stay for a few nights at any time, Sasaki, take out the spare key."

The butler who was sitting in the co-pilot before immediately agreed, and took out a few keys from the briefcase he carried with him, intending to distribute the keys to everyone.

Everyone present knew Ryu Mitsui's intentions. He nominally asked everyone to stay temporarily, but in fact he wanted to give away this expensive luxury villa directly, so as to connect everyone's feelings.

Of the four guests, Ryu Mitsui was supposed to give the villa to Cohen Bush.But after thinking about it, he felt that Cohen Bush might not want it.Now that he is a senator, it is very unlikely that he would receive such a gift, otherwise it would be tantamount to making a mistake. Once someone finds out, his official career will be completely ruined.

Ms. Nidi definitely wouldn't want it either. She is the head of the Nidi family in name, so it would be too cheap to accept such a gift.

In this way, only Niu Xiaoqiang and Barbara are left. According to the information obtained by Mitsui Ryu, the relationship between these two people is very close, which has long gone beyond the boundaries of ordinary friends.Therefore, in Mitsui Ryu's view, it doesn't matter whether this villa is given to either of the two, as long as the gift is given out, he has achieved his goal.

The four of them were very shrewd, and they could see Ryuu Mitsui's intentions at a glance.Although Cohen Bush liked this villa very much, due to the restriction of his status as a senator, he had no choice but to decline the key handed over by Ryu Mitsui.

Ms. Nidi owns several properties in California, and she represents the image of the Nidi family at the moment, so naturally she would not accept such a small gift, so she politely declined Ryu Mitsui's kindness.

Niu Xiaoqiang and Barbara were left, and they looked at each other, and then Barbara said with a smile: "Xiaoqiang, you should take the key, it's the same as mine."

This is clearly declaring that the relationship between the two is extraordinary. Mitsui Ryuu thought to himself: Niu Xiaoqiang is really amazing, he can make Miss Barbara of the Bu family follow him so wholeheartedly. What kind of good thing?

Niu Xiaoqiang didn't refuse when he heard the words, and accepted the key handed over by Sasaki with a smile, so this super mansion worth tens of millions of dollars became Niu Xiaoqiang's private property.

According to Niu Xiaoqiang's estimate, Mitsui Ryuu would definitely send someone to go through the transfer procedures of the property rights of the villa, and then send someone to deliver the procedures to him.

Niu Xiaoqiang thanked him with a smile, and then a group of people walked into the gate of the villa under the greeting of Ryu Mitsui.

This villa looks luxurious from the outside, but inside, the decoration is still very luxurious.Even Niu Xiaoqiang, who has seen the world, was dazzled.

Mitsui Ryu asked everyone for their opinions, and then led everyone to drink coffee by the swimming pool in the backyard of the villa.

The coffee is freshly ground, and the two deaf-mute women are still responsible for providing the service.

Niu Xiaoqiang saw that the two women were skillful and well-behaved, so he couldn't help but take a second look.

Seeing this, Ryu Mitsui immediately offered hospitality: "Mr. Niu, what do you think of these two dumb girls? If you think it's okay, I might as well give them to you. They are all proficient in housekeeping and can help Mr. Niu Cooking, laundry, and housework will save you a lot of time and energy."

Niu Xiaoqiang knew very well that Ryu Mitsui was courting him only for the sake of the other three people. He was able to call the Cohenbush brothers and sisters and Ms. Nidi together, which fully proved his worth and was worthy of Ryu Mitsui This outsider is pleasing to the eye.

Niu Xiaoqiang nodded with a smile: "Then I would like to thank Mr. Mitsui. I am usually too busy with work, and I really need such a housekeeper to help me with some trivial matters in life."

Ryu Mitsui smiled and waved his hands: "It's just two service staff, so there's nothing to be grateful for."

Seeing that Mitsui Ryu was giving away a luxurious villa and someone else, Niu Xiaoqiang decided to reciprocate immediately.

He turned to look at Bush Cohen, and asked with a smile: "Cohen, didn't you contact the senior management of Columbia before you boarded the plane? I wonder if it's possible to call them here to discuss with Mr. Mitsui face to face?"

Cohenbush smiled and nodded: "Of course there is no problem, Nidhi, please give them a call and say that we are here waiting for them to come over to discuss business."

Ms. Needy, though not yet engaged to Cohenbush, was already a bit of a couple.She hummed lightly, took out the satellite phone and dialed a number on the spot, hung up the phone after giving a few instructions, and said, "They happen to be having a party in another villa in Beverly Hills, and they will drive away soon." Come."

The area of ​​Beverly Hills is still quite large, and all the people living here are rich people. If the distance is relatively long, it is better to drive more conveniently.

Hearing this, Ryuu Mitsui expressed his thanks repeatedly. Ms. Nidi smiled and asked: "Mr. Mitsui, I have already contacted several shareholders of Columbia on the phone before I came here and asked for their opinions. They have already In principle, it is agreed to transfer Columbia Pictures to Sony under the name of the Mitsui consortium, but their asking price is a bit high. I don’t know what price Mr. Mitsui has in mind? I can also make a comparison, so as not to cause trouble later because of price differences Not happy."

Mitsui Ryu didn't hide it when he heard this, and said honestly: "The psychological price of the Mitsui consortium for this acquisition is about 40 billion US dollars. Ms. Nidi, I don't know what the other party's offer is?"

Ms. Nidi replied: "Their quotation is 60 billion U.S. dollars, which does not include the relevant taxes that need to be paid. If taxes are included, the difference between the two parties on the amount is about 25 billion U.S. dollars. The difference is a little bit. so big."

Ryu Mitsui had sent someone to investigate the financial situation of Columbia Pictures. The annual net profit of this world-renowned film company is only tens of millions of dollars. In recent years, due to investment in the production of films that have not sold well, the profit is not enough. There was a loss.

Mitsui Ryu felt that the price offered by himself was already very generous, but he did not expect that the price offered by these shareholders was as high as 60 billion US dollars, and the price did not include taxes, which made him somewhat unhappy.According to his words, these shareholders are too greedy.

Mijing Ryu's self-cultivation is very good, he didn't show the unhappiness in his heart.He pondered for a moment, and then said: "The difference between our two parties is indeed a bit big. If possible, I think both parties should take a step back and take a middle price, and use 50 billion U.S. dollars as the final transaction price. As for The taxes that need to be paid will be shared by both parties in half, I wonder how many of you think my proposal is feasible?"

Mitsui Ryuming was obviously asking about the attitude of Niu Xiaoqiang and the others, but in fact he wanted these people to help him as lobbyists.

The four people immediately understood what he meant, and they all looked at each other, and then Cohen Bush said: "Mr. Mitsui has shown enough sincerity, but we are just introducers, not shareholders of Columbia Pictures. The transaction involves the fundamental interests of others, so we can only help to persuade a few words, as for the effect, it is difficult to guarantee."

What Americans pay attention to is that business is business, and favors are favors. Ryu Mitsui knows this.Therefore, he was not dissatisfied, and nodded with a smile: "Thank you for your kind words, no matter what the result is, I am very grateful."

Niu Xiaoqiang had already reached an agreement with Ryu Mitsui. Once the acquisition plan is successful, he will get [-]% of the shares of Columbia Pictures.In addition, Mitsui Ryu gave him a lot of benefits back and forth, which cannot be ignored.Since he was a party with a stake, he had to speak for Ryu Mitsui at this time.

He only heard him interject: "The business is all negotiated. I believe that with the joint efforts of everyone, the final agreement should be able to satisfy both parties."
