Chapter 373： Investment concept (on)

The little gift for Audemars Piguet is of course related to Audemars Piguet. In fact, it is the Royal Oak concept watch that Audemars Piguet launched in 2002. All metal materials, Guo Tailai, will be made of titanium alloy and replaced with blue enamel hairspring. It has strong performance and can withstand acceleration and vibration. It is water resistant to 500 meters. On the dial, the tourbillon and power compel and power reserve display create an asymmetrical layout. when

However, this concept watch with a semi-hollow dial is just like the Panlong watch, showing a corner of the blue blood nobles used. Under the metallic luster of titanium alloy, it adds a beautiful blue color and half-display. A few exposed ruby ​​bearings match each other.

The overall style of the dial is the rigorous traditional octahedral style of the Royal Oak, which is exactly the same as Audemars Piguet. I believe this watch will definitely make Audemars Piguet happy.

This watch Guo Tailai does not have much glare, but the medium-sized rule is made with the highest precision that can be done by himself. Without any micro-carving, it is the normal production of parts, and then the normal assembly. . Of course, under the normal Audemars Piguet logo, he added a row of small ones, taylor g3, to show that this is his third work. Wait

When I finished this watch, it was already night. Lin Jiayi has returned to the hotel after negotiations and reported the results of today's negotiations.

Audemars Piguet has some swings in sub-brands and an independent series. After all, Audemars Piguet's more than one hundred years of history have never had a precedent for sub-brands. At the same time as the high-level negotiations with Lin Jiayi, the Swiss side of the board of directors is also meeting to study, which is the most appropriate to consider which method.

The high-rises on the London side all saw the real thing of the dragon watch, and also saw the micro-carving of the dragon with a high-magnifying magnifying glass, and saw the unique t-letter anti-counterfeiting mark, basically no doubt. Panlong watches also let them see Guo Tailai's ability in the design of watches and movements, and support the sub-brands. Now someone who needs a reason to convince the board, even though the board is a family member of the two founders, must also get their nod. temporarily

As a result of the negotiations, if it was Guo Tailai’s own watch, all watches were carried out in accordance with the highest level of auction process, and Audemars Piguet was responsible for the operation, charging a 10% processing fee. For design of watches and movements, intellectual property belongs to the taylor g sub-brand. If the sub-brand can be established, Audemars Piguet will also share 10%. After that, the same type of movement mass production and non-t Mr. limited edition were launched, and dividends were paid according to the proportion of shares. forest

Jiayi tried to cross-share with Audemars Piguet, but in this respect, Audemars Piguet is extremely strict and is not willing to accept new shareholders, but they are willing to pay $30 million in cash to get a sub-brand. Tenth of the shares.

Basically, it is in line with Guo Tailai's bottom line. It is a pity that he can't invest in Audemars Piguet, but Guo Tailai does not mean to force business. This requires him to consider whether he is willing to accept the $30 million 10% stake. "

Forget it. Guo Tailai pondered for a while, not much entangled in this matter: "We can designate Mr. Baker to be responsible for the operation of the sub-brand, 10% of the shares of 50 million US dollars in cash. If they promise, cooperate with this, if you don't agree, then change one. "forest

Jiayi nodded. Guo Tailai handed the royal oak concept table made today to Lin Jiayi: "Show them to them tomorrow, maybe the negotiations can be more enjoyable."

Royal Oak? Lin Jiayi took a look at the obvious octagonal bezel, but immediately recognized it, not any of the ones she had seen before. For today’s negotiations, Lin Jiayi and the company’s staff were also collected yesterday. One day's information, how should Audemars Piguet's housekeeping series be enough to understand."

A new design made according to their style. Guo Tailai explained it casually. Seeing that Lin Jiayi was looking around for a high magnification magnifying glass, she couldn’t help but shake her head: "This is only the t-letter with anti-counterfeiting marks, and the others are all done normally." Can't deviate from the style of the Royal Oak! ""

Very beautiful, very classic! Lin Jiayi carefully appreciated for a while, and then carefully put the watch back into the watch box: "I believe they will definitely be happy." ”

"If the cooperation is successful, then this watch will be the year-end reward for Mr. Baker." Guo Tailai looked at her after finishing all this and said with a smile: "If it is not successful, then give a gift to Mr. Baker, thank you. He helps."

Is it inappropriate to use such a blatant digging of the other person? Lin Jiayi saw Guo Tailai's small ninety-nine at a glance. Since even Audemars Piguet recognized Mr. Baker's ability to work, then the cooperation could not be achieved. Digging Mr. Baker to operate Guo Tailai's watch brand is the next step. As long as it is a person who loves watches, Lin Jiayi believes that no one can resist the temptation of Guo Tailai's hand-made watches."

Maybe it is a happy cooperation? Guo Tailai smiled and said: "You also know that I don't want to run a watch industry any more, it is very troublesome." When negotiating tomorrow, allow them to bring the two watches back to the people on their board. Also help me fight for the power of giving priority to investment once Audemars Pigueer needs financing. ”

"Boss, are you planning to invest in a suitable company and invest just less than 5% of the public, and then do the big boss hidden in the dark?" Lin Jiayi handled Guo Tailai's many investment projects and found that Guo Tailai always liked it. Holding a five percent stake. This time, the Audemars Piguet negotiations for the investment of shares is also the same number, can not help but laugh.

"Yeah!" Guo Tailai replied with a smile: "In fact, I don't understand many aspects. I don't know what other people do. Why don't you let professional people do good things, and then help me earn some money?" ”

"The boss is such a rare investor." Lin Jiayi said with a smile: "Other angel investors hate to directly control the companies that seek investment. The less money they invest, the better. Take as many shares as possible and let others Give yourself a lot of money. You are so different, too unsociable."

“But those entrepreneurs will work harder to develop the company and work harder to create value, instead of worrying about the company being out of control, fearing that one day they will be kicked out of the company they created.” Guo Tailai responded with a smile. "Don't worry about becoming the next Jobs to be kicked out by Apple, isn't it? I believe that those entrepreneurs will definitely prefer to work with me, not the angel investors you said."
