Chapter 494 Mr. Wang, if you have any requests next time, you don't need to beat around the bus
“YG Entertainment, a South Korean entertainment agency,” Wang Xiucheng explained.
“I don’t know,” Arnaud continued, puzzled. “You know my children have many companies, maybe they’ve acquired or invested in them before, but I don’t recall any of them.”
“Mr. Wang, please continue.” Arnaud knew that if Wang Xiucheng suddenly mentioned this company, it would prove that Gerard was right; Wang Xiucheng’s target might not be LV.
This relieved him!
As long as it's not LV, everything is negotiable.
"Oh, it's nothing. A friend of mine is currently acquiring this company and said that you have shares in it. I just suddenly remembered it and wanted to ask."
“Mr. Wang, stop beating around the bush, what exactly do you want?” Arno continued to ask.
However, Arnault's tone was no longer as angry as before.
Because he knew what Wang Xiucheng wanted.
If there's something you want, then we can talk.
What he fears most right now is that Wang Xiucheng will suddenly sell his LV shares, which would cause LV's stock price to plummet, possibly even lower than it was at the opening this morning.
“Sell me the YG stock,” Wang Xiucheng said simply.
"No problem, wait a moment, I'll have someone check."
Arnaud hung up the phone.
For Arnault, nothing is more important than LVMH.
Wang Xiucheng shook his phone again and smiled at Mary, saying, "See, he's a smart man."
Mary laughed too, without saying a word, but her expression seemed to say, "You're the smartest."
Arnaud called very quickly.
“I found it. Ten years ago, a private equity fund under LVMH invested 8000 million in YG, acquiring a 12.38% stake in YG Entertainment.”
“If Mr. Wang needs it, I can have the shares transferred to you immediately.”
"Really? That's wonderful!" Wang Xiucheng exclaimed, sounding somewhat surprised, as if he had been flattered.
“Of course, but…” Arno seemed to hesitate.
Wang Xiucheng knew what he meant, so he continued, "Miss Mary and I are very optimistic about the development of LV, which is why we acquired LVMH shares."
"If we need money, we will slowly sell our shares over the next few months."
Wang Xiucheng brought Mary out.
Compared to Wang Xiucheng's own reputation, Mary from the Ko family was clearly more convincing.
Mary smiled at Wang Xiucheng without interrupting, thus tacitly accepting his actions.
Mary was even a little smug.
What she could give Wang Xiucheng was something no other woman could give him!
Sure enough, Arnault was very satisfied upon hearing this "guarantee".
“Mr. Wang, next time you have any requests, you don’t need to beat around the bush like this.” Arno seemed to be joking before hanging up the phone, not giving Wang Xiucheng a chance to speak again.
Wang Xiucheng looked at the phone that had been hung up, then looked up at Mary on the other end of the line. "Is this old man trying to sarcastic or sarcastic remarks about me?"
Mary smiled and nodded, then chuckled.
Seeing Wang Xiucheng happy made her happy too.
She had even imagined what it would be like many years from now when Wang Xiucheng sat in the Koch Industries office, commanding thousands of troops!
in the afternoon.
Arno was finally relieved to see that the market had closed.
Wang Xiucheng kept his word; he did not relinquish his LVMH shares, nor did he make any further acquisitions.
However, while Wang Xiucheng was not making acquisitions, other investors were making acquisitions like crazy.
This caused LVMH's stock price to rise by another 1 point in the afternoon.
With Wang Xiucheng's guarantee, even if the stock price declines in the future, it will only decline slowly and will not suddenly "die".
The phone rang, and Arnault glanced at it; it was his son, Frederick Arnault.
"Arrived in Paris?" Arnaud answered the phone.
"Dad, why did you sell your YG shares?"
Frederick had just been informed that, just hours earlier, his fund had sold all of its shares in YG.
The decision was made by his own father, which made him very angry.
He intended to give those shares to Lisa.
“For you,” Arno cursed.
If Wang Xiucheng targets them, even if he can handle it now, once he's gone, how will the children in the family possibly stand up to him?
Wang Xiucheng was only 20 years old when he boarded the Koch Industries aircraft carrier.
This doesn't even include people like Jassim.
If I'm gone, my children will be devoured by Wang Xiucheng sooner or later.
These prominent families had long ago said they didn't want to have anything to do with Wang Xiucheng.
But now that we can't avoid it, we should try our best to be friends with Wang Xiucheng.
That way, at least I can protect myself.
Arnaud's biggest regret now is not having a daughter in her twenties, otherwise he would definitely introduce her to Wang Xiucheng.
Just like how the Ko family introduced Mary and Wang Xiucheng.
Ultimately, Wang Xiucheng's most terrifying asset is not his network of connections.
But he's only 20 years old!
Wang Xiucheng has far too much time to wear down these current heads of the families!
……
May 27, 8 p.m., Barclays Center, New York.
The 2022-2023 NBA Finals will be held here.
As the two teams that made it to the Finals this year, whether it's the Nets or the Nuggets, whoever wins the championship will have made history.
Despite the rain that started in New York yesterday due to the hurricane, it did not dampen the spirits of Brooklyn basketball fans.
Traffic congestion started around 5 p.m. around Barclays Center.
The Nets' home games are usually played between 5 and 6 p.m.
Watching the game until after 8 pm, I can get home without affecting my rest.
But this season, most of the Nets' home games start at 8 p.m.
Sometimes, even in high-profile games like those against the Lakers or Warriors, the game would start at 9 p.m.
Sometimes the game ends after 11 p.m.
If you get stuck in traffic for a while, you often don't get home until late at night.
Nets fans protested, but the Nets' public relations department gave a very brief response.
"To cater to the viewing habits of Chinese fans."
The Nets only ranked sixth or seventh in viewership ratings across the entire network this season. Although they have players of Wang Xiucheng and Durant's caliber, neither their viewership ratings nor the number of games broadcast across the entire network can compare to teams like the Lakers and Warriors.
However, the Nets are undoubtedly number one in viewership ratings in China.
Whether it's an online platform like Penguin Migu or a traditional platform like CCTV Sports, as long as they broadcast the Nets' games, all other sports programs have to give way.
No comparison, absolutely no comparison!
According to statistics, the number of people watching the Nets' regular season games live on average in China this season has remained stable at 100 million.
What does it mean?
That means one in 14 people watched the game live at least once during the Nets' game.
If you include those who watch the replays and highlights afterward, the number would easily reach 300 million.
It's worth noting that the Super Bowl, which is held once a year and is known as the "American Spring Festival Gala," only has a viewership of around 1.2 million, which is already considered a "capital carnival."
The Nets' games always get this much viewership in China, so are you scared yet?
Along with other teams and star players, they also gained some popularity in China.
Nearly 20 active NBA players have already confirmed their participation in the "China Tour" this summer.
It's worth noting that there's a Basketball World Cup this year; otherwise, even more players would be going to China to make money.
