Chapter 193 The Chrysanthemum and the Knife
“Mainland Company Acquires Nippon Bandai!”
“Bandai, Nippon’s largest toy giant, was acquired by Donglin Hi-Tech Company!”
"Overseas companies are buying up the entire Nippon Benzene. The Ministry of Finance of Nippon Benzene should introduce laws to restrict the acquisition of Nippon Benzene by overseas companies!" There was an uproar in various media outlets. Even though Tanglin Hi-tech only took away 17.7% of Bandai's equity, it still caused people from all walks of life to mourn, as if the entire Japan had been bought.
The media naturally likes eye-catching headlines. Coupled with the small size of the country, the Japanese people are arrogant and inferior. Frequent earthquakes have made the people on the island very worried, but with a few Very sensitive.
The character of Nippon people, coupled with the media’s fanning of the flames, has resulted in the rampant use of headlines. Many people who read Nippon media reports feel as if Tanglin Hi-Tech has bought the entire Bandai. ...
You know, more than ten years ago, Nippon Benz was clamoring to buy America, but now it is reported that Bandai, a local company of Nippon Benz, has become a major shareholder of a mainland company. This Many people in Japan who still think about Japan before the bubble burst are jumping to their feet.
However, in the future, it is estimated that Japanese people will become more and more accustomed to this kind of thing. In a few years, Sharp will be acquired, Toshiba will be split up, the TV business will be given to Hisense, and the home appliances and other businesses will be It was given to Midea, and the remaining Panasonic and Sanyo home appliances were bundled together and sold to Haier, and the Panasonic TV business was given to Changhong.
The same is basically true for other Japanese companies. Except for Sony, which relies on cameras to survive, the other businesses of Japanese companies such as TVs and home appliances have been taken away by mainland companies. By the way, The Japanese benzene market has also been occupied. As for businesses such as semiconductors, that is the territory of the Japanese benzene suzerainty America, and it does not belong to the Japanese benzene anyway...
It is estimated that by that time, Nippon people will be used to the acquisition of Nippon brand and company, but now, Dongling Hi-Tech suddenly becomes the major shareholder of Nippon Bandai, which is enough to shock countless Japanese people.
The news from Japan and Japan first spread to Southeast Asia, and the media in Hong Kong, Singapore, Malaysia, Siam and other places followed it.
Li Dongling has a good reputation in Hong Kong City. He is one of the mainland rich people that Hong Kong City media pays most attention to. From the original Microsoft lawsuit to the Mouse King, Telephone King, etc., Hong Kong City media are all following Report.
However, the previous media reports were far less violent than this time when Donglin Hi-tech suddenly became the major shareholder of Nippon Benefit Bandai. Historical reasons and the strength of Nippon Benefit in the economic field in recent decades have made The Hong Kong City Company is also at a disadvantage facing the Japanese Benzene Company, and Japanese Benzene goods are also very popular in the Hong Kong City.
But now, Donglin High-tech has become the major shareholder of Bandai. Regardless of Bandai's status as a Japanese company, what is its current situation? When the news came out, the entire Hong Kong media was immediately on the lookout.
"Donngling Hi-Tech, founded by Asia Telephone King Li Dongling, became the largest shareholder of Nippon Benchmark Bandai!"
"For the first time in Asia, it is the first time for a mainland company to invest in Nippon Benzene Corporation!"
“The world’s fifth largest toy giant changed hands, and Donglin Hi-Tech became Bandai's major shareholder! "
Think about what the domestic media scene was like when Lenovo acquired IBM. If there hadn't been all the trouble that followed, Lenovo would have been completely cleansed by the acquisition of IBM and became a domestically produced company. The pride of the brand is sought after by countless people.
When Lenovo acquired IBM, it was praised by the media. Now Tanglin Hi-Tech is also praised by the Hong Kong media, even more so.
In this era of lack of self-confidence, many people may not know that Tanglin Hi-Tech can become the major shareholder of Japan Benzene Company in a developed country. However, this does not prevent them from admiring Donglin Hi-Tech!
“Dongli Hi-tech invests US$300 million in Bandai!”
On the mainland, the media in Guangdong Province, which is closest to the Hong Kong city, first released the news, and then various domestic media began to cover the ground reported this matter.
Bandai, which was originally not very well-known in the country, was also reported by various domestic media at the same time. This caused Bandai's popularity to skyrocket in the country.
……
"I think this is an irrational investment. I admit that Tanglin Hi-Tech is a company that has repeatedly created genius products and has experience in developing electronic pet machines. However, Bandai is now in a very bad situation, with a huge loss of hundreds of millions of dollars. The biggest loss record since its establishment!
Is it really worth investing US$300 million in the stock of such a company that may go bankrupt at any time? ”
Shanghai TV Financial Channel, for Dongling? Hi-tech has become the majority shareholder of Bandai and is being debated endlessly. Huang Yajian, a guest invited on TV, is the boss of a toy company in Shanghai and is considered a veteran in the toy industry. Naturally, he knows the situation of the toy industry best.
At this moment, he was vehemently criticizing Tanglin Hi-tech's investment. His experience told him that Bandai was dead, unless Tanglin Hi-tech needed to spend hundreds of millions more dollars.
This move by Dongling High-tech is completely stupid. Apart from gaining a false reputation, it has no other use. Bandai is already hopeless. He really can't think of any way for Bandai to survive. "I believe in Tanglin Hi-Tech. I have interviewed Mr. Li Dongling, the founder of Tanglin Hi-Tech. Tanglin Hi-Tech is a company that can create miracles. Since he invested in Bandai, he must have his intentions!"
Sitting opposite Huang Yajian is a reporter from a financial newspaper. He once went to Hanxi and interviewed Li Dongling with other media.
In the past few years, as long as the domestic technology and financial media have basically reported the news of Tanglin Hi-Tech, and after reporting the news of Tanglin Hi-Tech many times, reporters from these financial and technological media , trust in Donglin Hi-Tech will become higher and higher. Just like this time, these reporters in the technology and financial industries are much more confident than Donglin Hi-Tech!
“Unless Donglin Hi-Tech allows Bandai to develop another project like an electronic pet machine, Bandai may be able to be saved.”
“But is it possible?!”
Huang Yuanjian looked at the reporter opposite, shook his head and said, as if the reporter in front of him was still too young.
As a veteran in the industry, Huang Yuanjian knew very well that projects like the electronic pet machine were full of chance. He did not believe that Li Dongling could do anything comparable to the electronic pet machine. , if he could really get it out, he would be willing to admit defeat.
Shanghai Financial Channel is not the first to argue about Tanglin Hi-Tech's investment in Bandai. After touting Tanglin Hi-Tech's investment in Nippon Bandai, many media began to raise doubts about the investment of hundreds of millions of dollars in a company. Is a company that could go bankrupt at any time worth it? !
……
“Dongli Hi-Tech acquired Nippon Bandai?!”
After seeing the reports in the media, Boss Liu of Yanjing and Lenovo asked around in surprise.
"It's an investment. Donglin Hi-Tech only got less than 17% of Bandai's equity, but it has indeed become Bandai's major shareholder!" Boss Liu's confidant Guo Wei said.
I browsed several financial channels in succession, all of which were filled with news about Donglin Hi-tech investing in Bandai. Boss Liu couldn't help but feel envious after seeing it.
“Three hundred million US dollars, Tanglin Hi-tech is really a big deal, but investing in Bandai is really not doing its job properly!”
Boss Liu shook his head, expressing his displeasure at Tanglin Hi-tech’s wasteful spending. Money is something that a person who is not doing his job looks down upon, but only he knows whether he is envious or not.
Watching the news on TV, Boss Liu couldn't help but think about what would happen if Lenovo acquired an overseas computer giant one day.
"I'm afraid it will be difficult for domestic companies to replicate this investment!"
Sitong Company is also discussing this investment. Although it has "missed" the opportunity to invest in Dongling, A skinny camel is bigger than a horse. Sitong is still one of the domestic giants, but it is getting worse and worse.
The person who spoke was Chu Zhong, who was in charge of Sitong’s finances. “This time, Tanglin Hi-Tech borrowed the money from overseas banks and consortiums. Other domestic companies do not have the reputation of Donglin Hi-Tech overseas. , It’s really difficult to borrow so much foreign exchange!”
Hearing this, Duan Yongji, the head of Sitong, sighed and just saw Dongling Hi-Tech and Bandai News! , he was really excited.
Now that Stone is in a bottleneck, Tanglin Hi-Tech's investment here gave him inspiration. If Stone can also launch overseas acquisitions and enter overseas markets, will it be able to increase Stone's stock price and performance? Of course, He was also able to cash out more shares.
But Chu Zhong’s words poured cold water on Duan Yongji. Sitong is not well-known overseas. It is really difficult to get dollars and yen from overseas banks and consortiums. I heard Duan Yongji suddenly lost interest because he had no chance to copy Dongling Hi-Tech's operations.
Domestic companies such as Domestic Stone, Giant, Nande, and BBK are all looking at Dongling Hi-Tech. This overseas investment is the first time a mainland company has invested in an overseas listed company. What is it? Success or failure is an experience and lesson for domestic companies.
Of course, if it succeeds, the value of domestic companies will be much higher for those overseas banks and consortiums. It will be much easier to borrow money in the future, and the chances of going overseas will be much greater.
……
"Blind box?!"
Nippon Bandai Company, Yamako Makoto, who was sitting in the president's office again, took the plan handed over by Ren Yuefeng, and he couldn't help but whisper the name of the plan .
