Zhang Qingxue's service efficiency is very high. After the intention agreement was signed, Zhao Chen called Zhao Chen as soon as possible.
"Signed." Zhang Qingxue's voice came from the receiver, with a hint of exhaustion, but more of excitement.
"The premium is 500%, Copyright is bought out, and it is exclusive to regions outside the mainland. After the mainland authorization of Bubble Mary expires, the reservation rights are also in our hands."
Zhao Chen tapped his fingers on the armrest of the chair twice. "How much?"
"Thirty million Hong Kong Dollar."
Zhao Chen ran through the numbers in his mind.
Mololoy's overseas authorization, the normal market price is about 5 million Hong Kong Dollar.
The premium is 500%, 30 million.
Is it expensive?
Expensive.
Is it worth it?
value.
"Arrange financial transfers immediately."
Zhao Chen said, "Ask Wantang to use Henglong's overseas account and the money will arrive within today."
"It has been arranged." Zhang Qingxue paused.
"Zhao Zong, Wang Xin's Side has a detail - in his contract with Bubble Mary, there is a priority cooperation clause.
If there is a bid from an overseas authorized buyer, Bubble Mary will have priority in matching."
Zhao Chen's brows moved slightly. "What do you mean?"
"In other words, in this agreement we signed, Wang An has the right to redeem it under the same conditions within thirty days."
Zhao Chen was silent for two seconds.
He had not mastered this detail before.
"I understand." He said, "You come back first. Bring the original agreement with you."
After hanging up the phone, Zhao Chen put the phone on the table and looked out the window.
Priority matching rights.
Wang An can redeem Mololoy's overseas authorization within thirty days under the same conditions.
In other words, the card in his hand is only valid for thirty days.
But thirty days is enough.
Early the next morning, Zhao Chen flew to Beijing alone.
He didn't bring Chen Xi, or anyone else.
This is the first meeting between him and Wang An. There are some things that are not suitable for a third person to be present.
When Capital Airport Terminal 3, Zhao Chen walked out of the arrival hall, a black Mercedes-Benz S class was already waiting at the roadside.
The driver held a sign with "Bubble Mary".
"Mr. Zhao?" The driver greeted him, "Wang Zong asked me to pick you up."
Zhao Chen nodded and got in the car.
The car drove out of the airport and got on Airport Expressway.
The winter in Beijing is gray and the poplar trees on both sides of the road are bare.
Zhao Chen leaned on his seat, closed his eyes, and went through today's negotiation strategy in his mind.
Forty minutes later, the car stopped in front of a quiet teahouse.
Not an office.
Zhao Chen raised his eyebrows slightly - Wang An chose to meet here, indicating that he wanted to put the meeting in a more private and relaxed environment.
This is a good sign.
Zhao Chen got out of the car and pushed open the teahouse door.
Facing the Chinese screen was a Chinese screen. Around the screen, a young man wearing a dark blue sweatshirt was already sitting by the window, with a pot of tea in front of him.
"Chairman Zhao." Wang An stood up and stretched out his hand.
Zhao Chen held his hand. "Wang Zong, I have admired you for a long time."
The two people looked at each other.
Wang An is more than ten years older than Zhao Chen, but he doesn't look older at all.
He has a round face, small eyes, and a gentle smile.
But his handshake was strong and his eyes were steady - he was a man with a soft appearance and a hard heart.
"Please take a seat." Wang An pointed to the seat opposite, "I don't know what you like to drink, so I ordered a pot of Longjing."
Zhao Chen sat down, picked up the tea cup and took a sip. "Longjing is very good, Wang Zong is thoughtful."
Wang An also sat down, leaned on the back of the chair, and looked at Zhao Chen.
The two were silent for a few seconds.
There is a soft Guqin Music in the teahouse, and the gray sky is Wangjing outside the window.
Wang An spoke first, "Chairman Zhao, to be honest, I was quite surprised when I received your call."
Zhao Chen said, "Because I'm in the real estate industry? Is it too much to boast about being inter-bank?"
Wang An smiled, "Not entirely. Mainly - you are too young."
Zhao Chen also laughed, "Wang Zong is not old either."
Wang An shook his head. "I'm more than ten years older than you. And I've been doing Bubble Mary for seven years.
You... are twenty-two years old and already Listed Company Chairman. You just finished investing in the pig breeding track and now you are investing in Designer Toys.
To be honest, I really don't understand you. Why do you dare to invest in Bubble Mary with such confidence?"
Zhao Chen put down the tea cup. "Wang Zong doesn't need to understand me. If you can understand Bubble Mary, it is the biggest benefit to investors."
Moreover, when I invested in Designer Toys, it was only after I understood Bubble Mary that I dared to place my bet."
Wang An stared at him for two seconds. "Then tell me, what did you understand?"
Zhao Chen was not in a hurry to answer.
He looked at the sky outside the window and said:
"Wang Zong, what did you do before you became Bubble Mary?"
Wang An said, "Selling lunch boxes."
Zhao Chen nodded:
"This is consistent with the information I have received.
In 2010, you started with a small store called Zhongguancun, selling everything - cosmetics, stationery, and accessories.
The losses were so severe in the first three years that the store manager and his staff resigned en masse."
Wang An's expression changed.
Few outsiders know these things.
Zhao Chen continued, "In 2015, you discovered that a Japan doll named Sonny Angel was selling very well.
You start to wonder - why do adults buy this thing?"
He paused:
"I think you should have figured it out by now.
What adults buy is not toys, but companionship and emotional projection.
Then you did one thing - cut down all other categories in the store, leaving only Designer Toys."
Wang An didn't speak, but his fingers stopped on the teacup.
Zhao Chen said, "In 2016, you launched Mololoy Blind Boxes and it sold out in 4 seconds.
In the first half of this year, the company turned a loss into a profit. The annual revenue was about 150 million and the profit was more than 1 million.
Nearly fifty stores have been opened, and Robot Shops has also started to be launched."
He looked at Wang An: "Wang Zong, am I right?"
Wang An was silent for a long time.
Then he said, "Chairman Zhao, your research is the most thorough among the investors I have ever seen.
This shows that your investment is not impulsive."
Zhao Chen said, "Because I am really optimistic about this track."
Wang An picked up the tea cup and took a sip:
"Since you understand the current situation of Bubble Mary so well, what do you think is the biggest problem with Bubble Mary?"
Zhao Chen knows that this is Wang An's inspection of him.
What the other party wants to confirm is whether Zhao Chen really understands or pretends to understand.
And Zhao Chen's answer is also the key to winning Wang An's favor.
