Evening supper is Japanese style.

Traditional grilled skewers, oden and okonomiyaki are the main ones, but they are naturally different from those eaten outside, which is why Nobuyuki Matsuhisa, a famous chef in the Japanese cuisine industry, is interested in this.

Yan Ruxin was not interested in the content of the two men's discussions about cooking, and as a brainless foodie, she carried the plate to the yard, and chatted with Catherine about the next work plan while eating delicious food.

Her tongue is indeed a lot more sensitive to food, and she can easily tell the difference between food at home and food outside.

But if she was asked to comment, she would probably only say "delicious", and at most add some adjectives to this "delicious", and she couldn't say anything else.

"How much money do we have in our books?" Yan Ruxin asked.

Her next plan needs a lot of funds. If the funds of YA Capital are not enough, she will consider other ways of financing.

"After the capital injection into Xin Kepi, there are 3387.5 million left on the book." Catherine replied.

Yan Ruxin thought for a while, then shook her head: "Not enough, I plan to buy a platter investment fund, but now I can buy it at a high price if I vomit blood, so we have to make a good plan."

The platter investment she refers to is the Hollywood film fund platter investment, which has already emerged in Hollywood many years ago.

The investment in the film industry is very large, and the risks are also high. Even a large film studio with strong funds often has to borrow money to make a film.

However, Hollywood is still able to produce "big scene" and "big production" movies every year, and they are becoming more and more sophisticated. The test is not only the production company and individual investors like Yan Ruxin, but the platter fund from the Wall Street financial consortium .

To put it simply, a Wall Street investment bank cooperates with a major Hollywood studio to set up a film investment fund. Investors can invest in the fund and get returns in the form of debt or shares.

The platter refers to the inclusion of different film projects of the same company into a financing platter, and one fund can invest in more than dozens of film titles.

After the financial turmoil, the crisis put Wall Street's platter investment in Hollywood into crisis.

At present, many investment banks are forced to sell their shares in the film investment plan at a discount of 3-7%.

What Yan Ruxin wants to buy at this time is these platter funds that have been sold at a high price.

She got the film catalogs of different platter funds, and after reading the script, she divided these platter funds into upper, middle, and lower according to her sensitivity to the film market.

The best is a favorable price, and from the filmography, she has a hunch that they can all earn good funds.

Moderate means that the price is reasonable. There are some titles that she thinks will be big sellers, but there are also some titles that she thinks may lose money. But overall, those titles that sell well are enough to offset the losses and make a fortune.

The bottom line is that the price seems to be acceptable, but she doesn't like the titles.

Naturally, her goal is the two types of mixed funds of the upper class and the middle class.

"Now our funds are already in various film projects. The recent "The Hangover" and "The Weakness" will not be profitable until they are released in June. Now the environment is not good, and financing is not easy." Catherine analyzed.

"How much did you bid for the shares of Summit?" Yan Ruxin asked.

One after another, Hollywood and overseas capital have become interested in the shares of Summit Entertainment. Although Yan Ruxin is not in a hurry to sell, if the price is right, it would be a good choice to cash out part of it.

"The highest price was around $6 per share, but the companies making the bids were not very well capitalized."

"It hasn't reached the price I expected, and it doesn't make much sense if the quantity is small." Yan Ruxin shook her head and gave up the plan, "First buy as much as you can in the upper class, and spend all the money now It's all spent first..."

Since March, the financial market has gradually recovered, but financing is still several times more difficult than before the financial crisis broke out. Yan Ruxin doesn't have too many resources. Billions of dollars of funds are transferred by mail, so the operation is not smooth.

This is the difference between working alone and relying on a big tree. Although the investment bank has undergone a round of reshuffle, a thin camel is bigger than a horse. The resources owned by the big investment companies and investment banks are the same as Yan Ruxin's current individual investors. Can't compare.

After her own money was spent, she became penniless and only held a bunch of shares in companies and movies.

Usually such capital allocation is very risky, but Yan Ruxin believes in her vision for film investment, so she is not afraid of such risks.

"Lack of money?" A soft voice rang in Yan Ruxin's ears, and the hot wind caressed her ears, making her goosebumps ache.

When Catherine saw Marcos appear, she automatically and consciously cleared the dishes, leaving only two people at the scene.

This made Yan Ruxin wonder if Mr. Shen Jingbing did something threatening when she didn't know it?

Otherwise, why does Catherine, who is a foodie, want to take a detour when she sees Marcos, who is full of cooking skills?

In theory, shouldn't you hug your thighs?

Yan Ruxin said angrily, "Don't blow my ears, it's so itchy~ Can you walk without sound?"

"I've always walked like this." The gentleman dressed as abstinent said innocently.

The top button of his shirt was dangling in front of her eyes, and the thought of tearing it off couldn't help but arise in her heart.

Yan Ruxin swallowed, only saw his Adam's apple rolled up and down, and said, "I recently negotiated a deal with Buffett."

Buffett is naturally the stock god Buffett.

"Hmm~" Yan Ruxin raised her eyebrows, subtext "What does your business have to do with me?".

She wasn't very surprised. In order to find out his whereabouts, Miranda's investment in Goldman Sachs was involved, and some clues revealed in his words, she knew that he had a lot of control over Goldman Sachs' equity, and Buffett's investment in Goldman Sachs some time ago was exciting news, so it is not surprising that they have an intersection.

"We talked about your company during the meal, and he seems to be interested in your investment company." He said with a deadpan expression, but there was a lot of information in his words.

"When did you eat, why don't I know?" Yan Ruxin questioned.

She basically had three meals a day with him, so why didn't she know when he had dinner with Buffett.

However, she also realized that her focus seemed to be a bit off.

"Tonight, he came to the house, and I cooked the meal." Marcos replied subtly with the corners of his lips hooked.

All that was left on Yan Ruxin's face was embarrassment in capital letters.

She went to dinner with Leonardo and missed dinner with Buffett!

Ok……

I feel a little sorry to Leonardo for saying this, but Yan Ruxin is still looking forward to having dinner with the stock gods in the financial world.

To put it bluntly, Buffett's lunch can be auctioned for millions of dollars, and the value of dinner is of course the same, which makes her feel that she has lost a lot.

Yan Ruxin said with a depressed face: "... Hurry up and tell me some good news. For example, he will inject capital into my company, or he will exchange Berkshire Hathaway's stock for me or something."

"That's not true. I talked with him about Miranda's equity replacement. As for you, he doesn't seem to be very familiar with the film industry and doesn't plan to get involved. He just thinks your investment is interesting." Marcos didn't apologize at all. The ground made another knife.

"..." Yan Ruxin could only stare at this person with a negative EQ speechlessly, "Then you still ask me if I'm short of money? It’s dangling in front of my eyes, but I don’t have money to buy it, can you give me money?”

He watched Yan Ruxin tilt her head, conjured a document from behind, and handed it to her.

It seems that he really gave her money?

"What?" Yan Ruxin took the document suspiciously, flipped through it, and within a few minutes, she sneered calmly and said, "You are taking advantage of the fire! You want to exchange 3% of YA's shares with a capital injection of 49 million?"

So the two seamlessly switched from the family chat mode to the business war confrontation mode. She leaned against the tree in the yard, calm as water, and looked at him very gently.

But those who are familiar with her know that this state is the state in which she is most serious about fighting the enemy.

He is naturally familiar with her state, and the two had a lot of confrontations back then.

Marcos calmly sorted out the folds on the shirt, looked at her leisurely and said:

"Is this price unreasonable? Counting the holding of Summit, the investment in the film, and the capital injection in Xin Kepi, these investments add up to no more than 2 million. I spent 3 million, but only 49% of the shares. "

"Of course it's unreasonable. If buying something is only at the cost price, who can make money? The 2 million you said is the cost. The current valuation is more than that, let alone the potential for future appreciation." Yan Ruxin didn't take a step forward. Let, she said, "3 million can give you a maximum of 20% of the shares."

"Of course, Wall Street valued your company at 5.8 million, so I paid the price according to the market price, with a slight discount. The 20% you mentioned is really too much..." He said coldly Face, expressionless, and said mercilessly: "And you are short of money now, I don't think anyone else will pay except me."

"Then you are wrong. My lack of money is not because the company is facing a crisis, but because I want to buy cheap equity. I don't have the money to buy it. If it doesn't work, I won't buy it. The risk is even smaller. It's better than diluting my shares at a low price." Well done." Yan Ruxin shook her head softly, "I am very confident in every investment I make. When the funds return, I will invest in the next cycle. It will only make less money. There is no need to step into it. your trap."

"This is also what makes people feel strange. Things like movies ultimately depend on the subjective consciousness of the public, and no one can predict them in advance." Marcos raised the corners of his lips and said a little coldly, "Even a big producer There is no guarantee that every step of the film will be a hit, your company has only two people, and there is no market research department, where does it come from such strong self-confidence?"

"Business secrets, I'm sorry I can't tell you." Yan Ruxin frowned and smiled, her trump card couldn't be easily revealed.

Marcos narrowed his eyes slightly, put his hands on the tree trunk behind her head, and looked directly into her eyes like this, and she did not avoid looking at him.

Those who didn't know it would think it was the lingering gaze between lovers under the tree.

Catherine held her bag carefully, and took Nobuyuki Matsuhisa winkingly away, just not wanting to disturb the boss's affair.

Unexpectedly, there was a flash of swords and swords in the eyes of these two people, and they had already confronted each other for several rounds in silence.

But it has nothing to do with Fengyue, no, maybe there is such an ambiguity, but it is more about the game of interests.

"35%, I also want to hold a press conference and be responsible to shareholders." Marcos said.

"25%, as long as you have 2 million, but I have the right to buy back, you can use 1% of Miranda's equity to replace YA's 5% equity, and eventually hold 30% of the shares." Yan Ruxin said.

She has seen Miranda's financial statements, the capital is several times that of YA, and she holds a lot of companies. The ratio of 1:5, she is a little bit cheap, but let him buy 2% for 25 million, here she made a little bit Concession, no matter how you look at it, is a fair deal.

He lightly tapped the tree with his fingertips, thinking for a while.

After a while, the whole person approached her, locked her cold eyes, and finally approached her ear and said slowly and softly: "Deal."

Her breathing was stagnant, such a distance was too foul, as if her breath was caught in the breath of the other party, and the different temperatures on her body were also entangled with each other.

When she came back to her senses, her face was already flushed.

D……

It's obviously about business, why are you still here?

Fortunately, when she faced business, her will was firm enough, otherwise, after being forced to stare at Shu Dongjia by such a handsome man, it would have been messed up by someone else.

"Are you alright? Still not getting up yet." She pushed his chest uncomfortably, because of her height, she seemed to be nestled in his arms.

Just hearing him chuckle, the next second, she felt her earlobe being licked lightly, and the tingling sensation went straight to her forehead.

"Hey!" When she complained with wide eyes, he took another bite on her face, and then drifted away.

This star with no common sense and negative EQ just took advantage of it and disappeared into the yard without saying anything.

Yan Ruxin, who was left in a daze, stayed for a while, then shook her head and went back to the room.
