The world of film and television started from that year in a hurry

Chapter 1440 Longitudinal Theory 2
"I think Mr. Carlos is a bit alarmist, and it's been a long time, but you haven't gotten into the subject yet. You've been telling me about the crisis in the real estate industry. Are you putting pressure on me and building up a sense of crisis?"

Carlos said apologetically: "I'm sorry Mr. Wang, I just want Mr. Wang to understand your situation, so that we can reflect the sincerity of our Blackstone.

We Blackstone can help Mr. Wang get out of the current predicament and let Mr. Wang get rid of those burdens in the shortest time. Although the colleagues of Shanshui Group are also very experienced in this area, after all, there is no such pure investment company as Blackstone. . "

Wang Zhisu: "I'm curious. You said it yourself. There are no opportunities for development in the country. So what is the purpose of helping us in this way? I can't see the possibility of you gaining benefits from this?"

Carlos said with a smile: "If you only look at the country, of course it's impossible, but what about developing outward? I don't think Mr. Wang has thought about developing outward, right?"

Wang Zhisu: "Of course I have thought about it. This is the highest ideal of every practitioner in the real estate industry - to go abroad, but our industry pays great attention to regionalism. After going out, I am afraid that we will not be acclimatized!"

Carlos shook his head and said: "If you still think about traditional thinking, then you must not go abroad, but you can change the way of thinking, you give up the core industry, and fully develop the hotel industry and film and television industry. After all, every shopping mall in Shanshui They all have their own theater chains, so it can be said that they naturally control the downstream channels, and are most likely to become one of the giants in the film and television production industry.

There is also the hotel industry, which is also the industry you have been engaged in before Mr. Wang. I think you are most familiar with it, but the focus of Shanshui was obviously not on it. The development of the past few years is not because of your good ideas. It's because that industry is booming.

Shanshui has a large number of shopping malls. Since theaters can be located in its own shopping malls, why don't hotels be located in each shopping mall?To know how many hotel practitioners, the dream is to open a hotel in the commercial center of each city. This can be built into a mid-end and light luxury level. The cost is less than one percent of a five-star hotel, but the profit It is not smaller than it, which is what I have been unable to figure out. "

Carlos' words were like a hammer, instantly cutting through the wall of traditional thinking in Wang Zhisu's mind, allowing many inspirations to come out.

Yes, although Shanshui has also developed these two aspects before, they have never paid much attention to them. The reason is that the profits of these two industries are not the same as those of commercial real estate, so none of the senior management of Shanshui Pay attention.

Do you think, if you have a core industry that brings in money very quickly, will you focus on other industries?

The most you can do is to get involved and get a share of the pie. For a service-focused industry like the hotel industry, it’s impossible to develop well if you don’t cultivate it carefully.

Seeing that Wang Zhisu listened to his own words, Carlos continued: "Mr. Wang, the era of huge profits in the real estate industry has passed, and you have to change your thinking now. Although the two industries I mentioned just now are not as profitable as real estate, But it can be done with concentration and deep cultivation.

Moreover, these two industries are most likely to go abroad after becoming bigger and stronger, especially in the hotel industry. If the initial funds are not enough, you can start with mid-range and light luxury brands. After you have accumulated enough experience and a team, you can vigorously develop five A star hotel, to use your great man's words to describe it, is that the countryside surrounds the city. "

Wang Zhisu also felt his sincerity through what Carlos said just now. This kind of suggestion can be said to be at the strategic level. If he is not really optimistic about their landscape, there is no need for him to say these words in front of his face.

Wang Zhisu also apologized for his previous attitude.

"Mr. Carlos, I apologize to you for my previous attitude. Your suggestion is indeed very practical and has guided the future development of our company. I am very grateful. Now you can talk about your requirements Well, there are specific operations."

"Of course, before expressing our request, I need to ask Mr. Wang a question."

Wang Zhisu made an attitude of all ears.

Carlos said: "Shanshui's external debt is high now, or is the market value in the stock market high?"

Wang Zhisu: "Of course the debt is high, but we also have a lot of assets."

Carlos: "That's it. Then I don't know why Mr. Wang should focus on dealing with those liabilities instead of thinking about re-listing on another platform?"

After hearing this, Wang Zhisu smiled bitterly: "Mr. Carlos, it's not easy, let's not talk about the huge amount of money we need to repurchase the stock. Even if we repurchase the stock and go to other platforms for listing, there is no good news. The possibility is too high, and we dare not take such a risk.”

Carlos said with a mysterious smile: "Could it be that Mr. Wang has forgotten what I do?"

Wang Zhisu instantly guessed why Carlos was looking for him.

She guessed uncertainly: "Could it be that Mr. Carlos asked me to meet for this reason?"

Carlos nodded and said: "Of course, in fact, the brand crisis of Shanshui some time ago is the best time for us to implement this plan. At that time, it can be said that the right time and place are perfect. If you cooperate again, the price of repurchasing shares will be very low then. , so that we can save a lot of money, and then you follow the previous processing method. We are releasing some good news through the relationship. No matter which platform it is listed on, the results will not be too bad. After raising a large amount of funds, I can also take advantage of the transformation. However, I was negotiating a business in Europe at that time, and I didn’t have time to come back. I entrusted others and I was afraid of messing up the matter, so as soon as I finished dealing with that side, I immediately I'll come back and meet you."

Wang Zhisu also thought about it at this time. If Carlos really followed Carlos's idea at that time, it is not to say whether the transformation can be smooth, but the possibility of raising a large amount of funds is still very high, which can relieve the pressure on Shanshui. All they paid was some equity.

Carlos: "But it's not too late now. After Shanshui experienced the death of the former chairman, the imprisonment of the acting chairman and the brand crisis, the stock price of Shanshui has fallen to the lowest level. Although your previous public relations have saved some, it has not yet recovered. On average, if we artificially create some negative news, we can make it fall partly in a short period of time, and the money for repurchasing stocks does not need to be paid out by us, Blackstone, but these stocks obviously belong to us Yes, and the Shanshui Group and you have to sign an agreement with us, otherwise it is impossible for us to spend such a huge amount of money with confidence."
