Chapter 133 Empire Group Is Going to Acquire Taito Corporation!
Office of the Chairman of Empire Group.
When Mai Lisi and others held a press conference in the conference room, a person that Yang Ming had been waiting for came back from Japan.
More than half a month ago.
Xu Qingsheng and Barro led a team to Japan to acquire Taito Co., Ltd.
After Xu Qingsheng and Barro arrived in Tokyo with their members, Xu Qingsheng, Barro and their members stayed in a hotel in Tokyo. They did not immediately issue an acquisition contract to Taito Co., Ltd.
Instead, they assigned tasks first.
Xu Qingsheng investigated Taito's information.
Barro was responsible for investigating Taito's boss Mikhail Kogan, as well as Nakanishi Akio, Nishikado Tomohiro, Matsushita Masato and others.
Knowing yourself and the enemy will lead to victory in every battle.
The two sides assigned tasks, first finding out about Taito Co., Ltd., as well as Taito's boss Mikhail Kogan, and key members Nakanishi Akio and others.
Xu Qingsheng and Barro decided to meet Mikhail Kogan.
Mikhail Kogan is a Jewish businessman born in the Soviet Union.
Speaking of Jews, Yang Ming has to be careful, not to mention Xu Qingsheng and Barlow. After they knew that Mikhail Kogan was a Jew, they knew that it would be difficult to deal with him.
Today, Mikhail Kogan, who is 58 years old, basically stays in Japan all year round. Except for his white appearance, his other living habits and so on are not much different from those Japanese.
In addition to being good at Russian, Japanese, and English, Mikhail Kogan himself was also very surprised when Xu Qingsheng and Barlow found him.
Mikhail Kogan was even more surprised when he learned that the two people were from the Hong Kong Empire Group.
"Mr. Barlow, Mr. Xu, your company just swallowed up the British-owned Wharf and Hutchison Whampoa some time ago?"
Wharf and Hutchison Whampoa are not only large-scale British-owned foreign companies in Hong Kong, but also large-scale in the world.
The Empire Group that can swallow up the two foreign companies is indeed not simple in Mikhail Kogan's view.
Now Taidong and Empire Group are simply incomparable.
"Yes, our Empire Group did acquire Wharf Holdings and Hutchison Whampoa some time ago."
This represents the strength of the Empire Group, and Xu Qingsheng and Barro did not hide it.
Mikhail Kogan thought that the Empire Group came to them for cooperation.
Facing such a powerful group company, Mikhail Kogan knew that if Taidong could cooperate with the Empire Group, it would certainly be good.
"You two, do you want to cooperate with Taidong Co., Ltd."
"No, we want to acquire Taidong Co., Ltd."
Xu Qingsheng said directly.
Empire Group wants to acquire Taidong?
When Xu Qingsheng said it, Mikhail Kogan was a little bit unbelievable.
In this era, there are cross-border and cross-regional acquisition companies.
For example, many foreign companies in Hong Kong often acquire some companies in Southeast Asia.
There are really not many companies from Hong Kong that want to acquire companies in the East.
However, later, the Jianing Group in Hong Kong acquired many companies in Japan. Basically, many of the companies acquired by the Jianing Group were worthless or seriously loss-making.
This kind of acquisition has no meaning at all.
"You two, Taidong Co., Ltd. will not be sold."
This is not a matter of money, but it involves his own company. Mikhail Kogan would never sell it unless he had no choice.
Historically, Taidong was acquired by Square Enix of the United States in 2005.
At that time, Taidong had already declined seriously, and the gap with other game giants in Japan was getting bigger and bigger.
At this time, in Mikhail Kogan's view, his company was steadily rising, so how could it be sold?
"Mr. Mikhail Kogan, you don't have to rush to refuse. We can evaluate the value of Taidong and then acquire it at twice the assessed value."
Acquire at twice the assessed value?
This acquisition price is naturally not low.
With this money, Mikhail Kogan can not only retire early, but also continue to invest in other industries.
If it were someone else, they might be willing to sell it.
However, he is a Jew, and a Jew who has lived in Japan for such a long time. His character not only has Jewish, but also Soviet and Japanese characters.
He will not sell Taidong easily.
Unless Taidong has no value in his eyes, he may sell it.
Xu Qingsheng and Barro have been investigating and understanding Mikhail Kogan for some time, and they know that it is probably the same.
When they came, the boss Yang Ming also reminded them that Mikhail Kogan is likely not to sell Taidong.
If they can't acquire Taidong.
Then they can only settle for the second best, acquire "Space Invaders" developed by their company, or dig out some game staff from Taidong.
"Space Invaders" Taidong Company has not yet been listed.
It has been secretly developed by Nishikaku Tomohiro, and many Japanese people don't know it now.
Xu Qingsheng and Barro have long known that when they came to Japan and started with Taidong game staff, they knew more clearly to what extent "Space Invaders" has been developed.
They still want to try to see if they can acquire Taito Co., Ltd. as a whole?
If they can acquire Taito Co., Ltd. in its entirety, then of course they will have accomplished a great feat.
If you can't acquire it and can only win "Space Invaders", then coming to Toyo this time is not too much of a failure.
this day.
Xu Qingsheng and Barlow met Taitong boss Mikhail Kogan and talked with him for a while.
When Xu Qingsheng and Barlow left.
Mikhail Kogan walked around in his office.
After a while, he picked up the landline phone and called his two most powerful men and confidants Nakanishi Akio and Matsushita Masato to come to the office.
Both of them are Japanese.
They have followed Mikhail Kogan for so long and have always been loyal. He likes these two Japanese subordinates very much.
Akio Nakanishi and Sanato Matsushita came to the office and greeted their boss Mikhail Kogan respectively.
Mikhail Kogan said: "Do you know who I just met?"
Akio Nakanishi and Sanato Matsushita looked at each other. How could they know who the boss had just met?
"Boss, I don't know who you just met."
Akio Nakanishi said.
"Boss, I don't know either."
"Just now, I met two people sent by the Imperial Group from Xiangjiang. The Imperial Group wants to acquire Taidong."
The Imperial Group from Xiangjiang?
Akio Nakanishi and Sanato Matsushita reacted quickly.
Didn't Xiangjiang's Imperial Group just acquire Wharf and Hutchison Whampoa some time ago?
This is a very powerful and huge Xiangjiang consortium. How could it reach out to the East?
