Reborn fashion designer

Chapter 973: Inside and Outside the Show (Part )

"Xiang, listen to me." Little John said confidently: "Given how much Mayhoola values ​​our cooperation, I think we can give it a try."

"Try what?" Xiang Yang asked in surprise.

Did you hear it right?

Little John finally agreed to take the meat that was handed to him?

This is really a miracle.

"Try to make some fuss about Mayhoola's acquisition of Valentino." Little John rubbed his hands in a mean way, and then said: "Look, Galavani and Jimidi came to us today just to cooperate with us to obtain some film and television resources to increase the brand's valuation, so why don't we..."

“.”Xiang Yang really wanted to curse.

It’s true that a dog can’t change its habit of eating shit.

The last second, he thought that Little John was going to borrow money to acquire Valentino.

But this guy started talking about raising money to cooperate with Valentino in film and television resources after it was successfully acquired by Mayhoola, so as to put this part of the profit into his own pocket.

They even put it in a nice way, saying that the two old guys have too much money to spend anyway.

No need to worry about retirement life at all.

Instead of letting them make the money, it’s better to make it yourself.

Mayhoola’s management will not ignore the help that film and television publicity can bring to the company. It would be great if both parties set up a company in proportion and each gets what they need.

Thus.

First, don’t waste the relationship that is gradually building between Xiangyang and Mayhoola.

Second, we can make more effective use of the resources at hand.

three.
Seeing that Little John had inadvertently shifted the topic back to Valentino, Ding Zhong was stunned for a moment, then he said thoughtfully, "What you said does make sense."

Although I don’t know what Xiangyang is planning, Little John’s idea cannot be said to be wrong.

Of course, he didn't think Xiangyang's choice was wrong.

As for interests, we always have to weigh and weigh them, and at least we have to see what we can do to maximize our benefits.

"You'd better shut up. There's nothing you can do but go see your son." If you don't stand up when it's time to turn your back on someone, then you will really become a fool who can be easily manipulated in the eyes of others.

Especially, in front of this guy Little John.

Do you really think I don't know what you think?

After glaring at his friend, Xiangyang took a deep breath.

"Xiang, I'm not kidding." Little John looked straight into Xiang Yang's eyes and said seriously, "Do you still remember "A Separation"? It's the movie that Abbas recommended and the director named Asghar Farhadi is currently filming. The executives of Mayhoola discussed it with me today."

"There is such a thing." Xiangyang frowned.

He didn't remember much about Asghar Farhadi, but Xiang Yang still had some impression of the project "A Separation".

The filming fee was $45, and the final signature was confirmed by him.

The money passed through several hands before it was finally deposited into the crew's account.

There is no need to state the reason explicitly.

"Of course, only you," Little John muttered.

"In fact, Mr. Xiang, to be honest, if your company's international film and television projects can provide resources for Anta, we are also very happy to cooperate."

Ding Zhong also quickly expressed his opinion.

Let’s put aside the issue of acquisition for now. He really wants to have a good talk with Xiang Yang about the movie placement.

Especially, about "Summer Joy".

During this time in China, Xiao Wuge came to visit again using his connections.

He met her because he couldn't refuse.

I didn't expect this guy to be so greedy.

Now that FILA has confirmed its sponsorship, we also hope that Anta can spend some money to do an advertising placement.

He was afraid of affecting Xiangyang's subsequent plans, so he didn't dare to refuse directly.

But he didn't agree.

"Ah, they looked for you?" Xiangyang's surprise did not seem fake. After looking at Ding Zhong intently, his brows furrowed even more.

Ding Zhong nodded, and then said, "Yes, from the tone of his voice, he has not only contacted me, but he may have tried all the people you have cooperated with before." Xiang Yang glanced at Ding Zhong, understood what he meant, and said in a low and serious voice, "Mr. Ding, please sit with Little John for a while. I'll go make a cup of coffee to change my mind."

After saying that, he stood up and glanced at Bi Shaffer behind him.

Seeing the two of them just getting up and leaving, Little John became unhappy. I said, "You haven't given me a clear answer about the matter of borrowing money."

How about we discuss it?

If you are worried, how about I mortgage my son to you?

Anyway, I don’t have anything valuable that you would like. If this doesn’t work, should I call my son “Xiao Xiang” from now on?
Bi Shafu, who was following behind Xiangyang, was not as aggressive as Little John. She pursed her lips awkwardly at Liu Qianqian and Laura who were looking at her, and then she said to Xiangyang:

"Boss, I'm really sorry. I was negligent in my job."

Xiangyang's attempt to acquire DMG Media to expand HYS's marketing system in China is a very important strategic layout.

As for what Xiao Wuge and his men did in China, we cannot assign someone to keep an eye on them.

But some important information was actually told to Xiangyang by other people, which showed that her work as an assistant during this period was indeed not up to standard.

Xiangyang nodded solemnly and said in a soft voice: "It's not entirely your fault. Please make me a cup of coffee first."

As he spoke, he forced a smile at Liu Qianqian, signaling her not to worry.

Looking into Xiangyang's eyes, Liu Qianqian's mouth twitched slightly, and a smile of sympathy appeared on her face. Because she was taking care of the children, she didn't hear the conversation between the few people too carefully, but she only heard that they were talking about Valentino and money.

If Xiangyang needs it, she has some money in her card that can be used for emergency.

If it takes a lot of money, she can sign
"Okay, Boss." Xiangyang's indifference made Bi Shafer feel a little ashamed. She said while making coffee: "Boss, if you want to criticize me, I will accept it humbly."

"Criticize you?" Xiang Yang withdrew his gaze from Liu Qianqian's face and couldn't help laughing: "Why should I criticize you? Others are not fools. To be honest, I also made mistakes in this matter."

"Hmm?" Bi Shafer looked up at Xiangyang.

"It's still not enough to scare others, right?" Xiang Yang said, pointing to the button next to the coffee machine. After Bi Shaffer pressed the start button, he leaned forward and whispered:
"Tonight, I want to see Valentino's exact net profit and EBIT (earnings before interest and taxes) figures, no matter what method I use. I also want to hear your mother's opinion."

"!!!"

For a moment, Bi Shafer thought she had heard wrongly.

"Don't act too surprised. Be natural when you leave. I don't want to be interrogated by my wife at night." After expressing his inner thoughts, Xiangyang took a deep breath.

He was also shocked by the idea that suddenly popped into his mind.

But think about it the other way around.

Little John, who had nothing, dared to ask him to borrow money to give it a try.

Ding Zhong was so attracted by the beautiful prospects that he had boasted about that he decided to spend a huge amount of money to acquire the FILA brand.

It seems that I have never shown such courage.

Well.
It’s not that it hasn’t happened before.

When pursuing Liu Qianqian, he seemed quite courageous.

Yes.

Even though he was a designer with nothing in the eyes of Liu Xixi's fans, he still mustered up the courage to take Liu Xixi away from Principal An's house.

Why are you hesitating now when Valentino is still going through debt restructuring?
"Boss, I want to remind you that..." Seeing Xiangyang staring at the coffee machine motionlessly, Bi Shafer said in a low voice after a brief shock:

"Mayhoola's offer is about 27 times EBITDA, which is much higher than the average European luxury brand valuation of 10-11 times EBITDA. This premium is too much.

With your current amount of funds, even with leverage, it would be difficult to compete with Mayhoola, as they still have the possibility of increasing the acquisition amount.”

Xiang Yang lowered his head and was silent for a moment, then said decisively: "Bring all the information here first, and I will decide the rest."

"Okay, Boss." Seeing that Xiangyang was very persistent, Bi Shafer had no choice but to nod.

However, she glared fiercely at little John on the other side of the sofa.

He was the instigator of everything.

Isn’t it?
"Don't just stare at him, be careful with my coffee." Xiang Yang smiled and patted his assistant on the shoulder, saying, "But he did give me some inspiration."

There wasn't enough cash to swallow Valentino.

But who said that he had to swallow it himself?

At least there are two people in front of me.

He and Liu Xixi.
