Chapter Seventy-Six: The Transformation of the Image of Infinite Production
IMX is a Japanese actor agency, and there is nothing surprising about it, and what surprised Luo Junning was that SoftBank Group also had the action of entering the entertainment industry.
As a student of the Department of Economics, when Luo Junning is busy with the work of the entertainment industry, of course, he will also pay attention to some things in the financial industry, and usually under the guidance of professors, he will also discuss some related things with Lin Naen and Ha Changmin, and most of the well-known financial groups in the circle will also be included in their discussion scope, and SoftBank Group is among them.
SoftBank Group, the full name of Software Banking Group, is a comprehensive venture capital company, mainly dedicated to investment in the IT industry, including networks and telecommunications, this group was founded in 1981 and listed in Japan in 1994, to this year, that is, February 28, 2006, its total stock price is about 32.8 billion US dollars, with a majority of shares in hundreds of major IT companies around the world, is a venture capital predator that cannot be ignored, and has the basic prototype of a financial empire.
And the founder of the SoftBank Group, Masayoshi Son, is also a person with a rather complicated identity, and the complexity here is not that he has engaged in any espionage work, but refers to his origins, the president is currently a Japanese citizen, but his ancestors once lived in South Korea, and his ancestors can be traced back to the time of China's Northern and Southern Dynasties, when Liu Song, a group of Sun ancestors moved from China's FJ. Putian Ning to Daegu of the Goryeo Dynasty at that time, and finally moved from the Korean Peninsula to Kyushu in Japan.
Leaving aside Son's resume, which seems to displease Chinese with strong ethnic feelings, his fortune history is legendary, and it is also a classic case that every student of finance and economics cannot ignore.
In this information, Bae Yongjun's own brokerage company BOF has negotiated with SoftBank Group and IMX Corporation, and is ready to jointly invest 13 billion won to acquire the company's management rights in OTTOWINTECH, and in this financing, Bae Yongjun will personally contribute 9 billion won, and is expected to purchase 1.447 million shares or 37.5% of the company's largest shareholder.
It seems that SoftBank Group is interested in Bae Yongjun's influence in South Korea.
Luo Junning was at a loss and asked, "Didn't they already negotiate?" How did you get a kick in it?"
"Don't worry, it's a formal business method, you must know that although my family has some power in South Korea, there is no way to threaten a large venture capital company in Japan, right?" Cui Hancheng understood Luo Junning's worries at a glance. said it with a grin, "As for what happened, let me tell you, I ...... that day"
"Stop, you can handle this matter yourself. Anyway, you can handle the development of the company now, and I still only take care of the affairs of variety shows. Luo Junning raised his hand to interrupt Cui Hancheng's words, making Cui Hancheng, who was about to talk about his 'legendary' experience, blush.
"Really don't listen?" Cui Hancheng said unwillingly.
Luo Junning rolled his eyes, did not speak, but turned his head and began to work on the computer again, as long as he did not use any improper means to bury hidden dangers for the future of the company, now he does not want to meddle in the operation of the company, it is trust, but also to give himself some time.
Cui Hancheng glanced at Luo Junning resentfully, and then left. And once he left Luo Junning's office, his face instantly turned into a shrewd and capable smile, which was enough to make people ignore his age.
In the office, Luo Junning's mind was not on the computer screen.
As the largest shareholder of Infinite Production, Luo Junning can't be indifferent to the development of the company at all, and at this time, he completely handed over the development of the company to Cui Hancheng, in addition to trusting Cui Hancheng and himself and not having much free time, there is another reason, that is, because of Cui Hanmin's existence.
What will happen to the company in the future. Luo Junning didn't think about it, but the development of the company during this period was in his eyes.
In just over a year, although Infinite Productions is still a small shrimp in the circle, it also has a certain influence. It also has a team of more than 100 employees, half of whom are entertainment companies working behind the scenes, lighting, camera, props, writers, directors, etc., so even if you start producing a show on your own, even if you don't think about distribution, it's not a big problem.
But in addition to that, at last year's year-end summary meeting. According to the company's financial statistics, the company's net profit last year was 1.3 billion won.
At the beginning, the registered capital of Infinite Productions was 130 million won, and it was a miracle that it was not big or small to make a tenfold profit in one year, but this time, Choi Han-sung said that he wanted to use the company's working capital, but in fact he was ready to use last year's profits to make an investment.
In the agreement reached between Bae Yongjun, SoftBank Group, and IMX, Choi Han-sung stubbornly dug up an 8% share, and this 8% share was a concession made by IMX.
Thinking of this, Luo Junning couldn't help but board the official website of IMX, now on the Internet, the so-called official website is still a little rough, but the basic information is already there, after browsing the information of IMX, he focused his attention on IMX's artists, his eyes swept over, and he also found some candidates who surprised him.
IMX is a Japanese actor agency, and it does not have too many roots in South Korea, mainly a major choice for Korean actors when entering the Japanese market, and it can cooperate with Bae Yongjun because the two parties have had in-depth successful cooperation in Bae Yongjun's debut in Japan, and in addition, IMX has also supported a lot of Korean actors to successfully debut in Japan, one of which is Son Ye-jin, who became a well-known Asian actress in one fell swoop in the two movies "Going Out" and "The Law of Pick-up" last year.
Son Ye-jin?
Luo Junning opened the script he had just made, and the guest invited to the latest issue of the knee Taoist priest was Son Ye-jin.
......
There is never any secret in the entertainment industry, and the second time that the head of the Ministry of Culture, Sports and Tourism visited Infinity Productions alone, it has long been spread among the executives of major agencies and TV stations, and more people have taken up the existence of this exclusive production company that originally didn't care about it and thought it was MBC.
KBS and SBS also have a part of the proposal for Infinite Productions, the last time they decisively rejected Infinite Productions' program plan, not because they were not optimistic, but because of their identity and relationship, they felt that Infinite Productions belonged to MBC, and they began to want to leave MBC alone, so they made a gesture under the temporary 'same breath', but now it seems that things are not like that.
