Rebirth of Hong Kong - 1978

Chapter 2182 Expensive Price

Ron Perelman was a little surprised when he received a call from Lin Daoqiu to meet him, but he was also very happy.

Putting everything aside, Ron Perelman went to meet Lin Daoqiu at the coffee shop he had made an appointment with with excitement.

In a coffee shop in LA, Ron Perelman saw Lin Daoqiu who was sitting in it drinking coffee, and he immediately put on a smile and walked towards him.

From Lin Daoqiu's point of view, Ron Perelman looked energetic and seemed to be in a good mood.

But as far as Lin Daoqiu knows, Marvel's business has not been good this year, so Ron Perelman's current appearance can be said to be just pretending to confuse himself, just to get more in the negotiation benefit.

"Hello, Mr. Perelman, we haven't seen each other for a long time."

"Mr. Lin is right. I thought we had to wait a long time to meet, but I didn't expect to see you again so soon. I feel very honored."

Lin Daoqiu got up and shook hands with Ron Perelman, and then invited him to sit down.

After Ron Perelman ordered a cup of coffee, the smile on his face was wider than before.

"Actually, I invited Mr. Ron Perelman over today to continue our conversation last time."

Ron Perelman nodded as he listened. He felt that he was occupying the absolute upper peak at this time, so he was not at all worried that Marvel would not be able to sell it at a good price.

But Ron Perelman is also very clear that it will be bad for him if he continues to delay, so while asking for a high price, he also hopes that the transaction can be concluded as soon as possible.

Because the prices offered by other buyers were far lower than Ron Perelman's psychological expectations, and Lin Daoqiu was obviously a great buyer. After all, he was a very rich owner. It is simply a piece of cake.

"Actually, I think Mr. Lin and I hit it off very well, and I also think our conversation should have a good result."

The last conversation was naturally about Marvel. Ron Perelman thought that this time he must sell Marvel as soon as possible. The price of [-] million US dollars is his bottom line.

"It can be said that Marvel has been operating poorly in the hands of Mr. Perelman this year. I am deeply sorry, so I asked you out just to take over this mess from your hands."

"Dismal business? Mr. Lin really knows how to joke. Last year, Marvel made me a lot of money. Even if there are difficulties, it is only temporary. I am very optimistic about the future of Marvel, and so is the market."

What Lin Daoqiu said was true, but Ron Perelman was obviously unwilling to tell the truth to Lin Daoqiu. He pulled out a bunch of things that didn't exist at all, which made Lin Daoqiu frown.

But it's normal to think about it. After all, the other party is a financier from Wall Street, and it is almost impossible to take advantage of him.

These people can say that the dead are alive, and they can say that a healthy person is about to die. It is common for them to reverse black and white, so it is not surprising.

Lin Daoqiu had already prepared to negotiate with Ron Perelman before he came, so although he was dissatisfied with Ron Perelman's dishonesty, it was understandable.

"It's better to put the facts in front of you when negotiating. If it's too nonsense, it's unfair to both buyers and sellers. What do you think?"

Ron Perelman just smiled slightly at this, but he didn't feel any embarrassment. Anyway, lying on Wall Street is a matter of course, and someone who doesn't lie is an outlier.

"Although I have a lot of affection for Marvel, if it can find a good buyer, I personally support it."

Ron Perelman's attitude has begun to loosen, but this is not because of his kindness, but because Marvel is indeed at a loss.

Because there are no popular film and television works, even if Ron Perelman makes Marvel's IP into peripherals, he can't make much money.

Now if Lin Daoqiu can be allowed to take over, it is the best result for Ron Perelman that he can realize it as soon as possible. Of course, the price must satisfy him.

"Mr. Perelman, don't worry, I believe that Marvel should not be too bad in my hands, so let's talk about the price next."

At that time, the New World Film Company controlled by Ron Perelman spent 500 million US dollars to buy Marvel, and Lin Daoqiu also knew that Ron Perelman would never be satisfied with doubling the price.

He thought about it, and then offered a price that Ron Perelman was not very satisfied with.

"I think the price of [-] million US dollars should be a very reasonable offer for Marvel."

Hearing what Lin Daoqiu said, Ron Perelman shook his head vigorously. The price of [-] million is indeed not bad. If it were someone else, they might have already seriously considered selling Marvel to Lin Daoqiu.

But he, Ron Perelman, doesn't just want to make more than $1 million from Marvel.

Moreover, the losses in the past two years have cost him tens of millions of dollars, so his low price will naturally not be only [-] million dollars.

"Mr. Lin, stop joking. In terms of Marvel's influence in North America, I think a minimum of [-] million is a reasonable price."

Lin Daoqiu did not expect that Ron Perelman would actually dare to ask for a price. The price of [-] million was the price when Lin Daoqiu bought MGM. Now he wants to buy Marvel for [-] million.

You must know that Marvel is just a comic book company, but there is no film copyright, let alone any big movies or technology.

Although Lin Daoqiu also knew that Ron Perelman was making a wild offer and hoped that he could counter the price on the spot, but he was obviously not interested in engaging in a tug-of-war with the other party.

"Since this is the case, I think there is a big gap between our ideas, so I withdraw my offer."

Lin Daoqiu smiled slightly at Ron Perelman, and immediately took back his offer.

Ron Perelman originally thought that after he offered a price of [-] million, Lin Daoqiu would give a price higher than [-] million immediately after being shocked.

But what he never expected was that Lin Daoqiu didn't continue to bid, but directly withdrew the offer.

When meeting him last year, Ron Perelman naively thought that Lin Daoqiu would have a second meeting with him immediately, but Lin Daoqiu appeared after a year, and this time he withdrew his offer.

Is it possible that the next negotiation will have to wait until a year later? If this is the case, then Ron Perelman feels that the negotiation with Lin Daoqiu should not be able to discuss anything, because this guy's patience is the worst he has ever seen. scary one.
