The United States is a free and democratic country.

Media outlets have free speech, are qualified to monitor and blame the government, and from the fairest point of view, they are the uncrowned kings.

They are fearless and unaffected by any force, and everyone has the right to freedom of expression and democracy.

But in fact...... It's all.

The fact that the actual controller of a media organization must be an American has already explained everything, the so-called free public opinion can only be issued under the supervision and management of the government, and as for the so-called right to pursue freedom and democracy, lawyer so-and-so was judged to be mentally ill and imprisoned in a psychiatric hospital because he opposed the government's temporary quarantine and control.

Of course, Shen Jiannan knew about the federal law on the media, but he didn't want a 50 percent stake in News Corp. Murdoch will not cede de de facto control of News Corp., and the U.S. government will not allow him to control the mouthpiece of public opinion as a Chinese.

But the business, the sky-high price is repaid on the spot. Murdoch pulled the terms of the law, but he was just looking for a reason to bargain.

Whoa—

Masako Shinkawa got up slightly, helped Murdoch's teacup fill with tea, and Shen Jiannan made a gesture of please and said.

"I think Mr. Murdoch you misunderstood. I'm not interested in the operation of News Corp. So, this question is not a big deal. You said yes. ”

Rupert Murdoch hesitated, looked at Shen Jiannan's eyes seriously, and after making sure that Shen Jiannan was serious, he picked up the teacup and took a sip of tea.

"No way. I will only give up to 15% of the shares. ”

"I can not interfere with your operations and decision-making power, and just need to enjoy the little convenience of shareholders when I need it. ”

Rupert Murdoch's eyes flickered.

If you don't interfere with his absolute power, just make some exchanges, this business will make a lot of sense.

"How much do you want to own in News Corp. ”

"Forty-five percent. ”

"No way. At most, I will sell 20 percent of the shares. ”

"Forty percent. ”

"Twenty-five percent, that's my bottom line. ”

The bottom line!

The bottom line is what is used to break it.

Shen Jiannan put down the teacup and spoke with an attitude that could not be refused.

"Thirty percent. ”

Rupert Murdoch didn't answer directly, he took the teacup and pondered repeatedly, and after a while, he looked straight into Shen Jiannan's eyes, as if he wanted to see through what Shen Jiannan's purpose was.

It took a long time before he spoke.

"So how much capital can News Corp. own. ”

Shen Jiannan smiled.

Communication between smart people often doesn't take much. Although Murdoch didn't say it explicitly, Shen Jiannan didn't understand what Murdoch meant.

Shen Jiannan silently stretched out a finger.

Murdoch frowned slightly, slightly dissatisfied.

"Ten percent?"

"No, one percent. ”

What's so ...... Murdoch quit.

He put the teacup heavily on the table and glared at Shen Jiannan angrily, his face full of dissatisfaction, he was really fed up with the black heart of this guy in front of him. Thirty percent of News Corp.'s market capitalization is worth nearly $1.2 billion.

But Shen Jiannan is good, and the 1.2 billion dollar only gives him 1% of the first capital.

This can no longer be described as black.

Murdoch's face darkened, and his eyes swelled with anger. He felt that Shen Jiannan didn't want to cooperate with him at all, and this kind of price reduction was a naked insult. In any case, News Corp. is the world's largest media company, but 30 percent of the shares can only be replaced by 1 percent of the shares of First Capital.

If it is known, it must not make people laugh to death.

Murdoch is a figure who has already become famous after all, and he suppresses his anger.

"Shen. I guess you're kidding, right?"

"No, no, I'm serious. ”

Rupert Murdoch's eyes shrank and looked at Shen Jiannan coldly.

"So you're insulting me?"

“NONO。 Mr. Murdoch, please don't get excited. I think you've forgotten that Capital One owns 15 percent of Standard Chartered Bank. ”

"Even then, that's not enough. ”

"What if Standard Chartered goes public?"

Murdoch's eyes moved.

Standard Chartered Bank is one of the Hong Kong dollar note-issuing banks, and if it goes public, 15% of the shares, under the capital operation, God knows how much it will be worth.

Shen Jiannan looked at Murdoch with a smile and added.

"In this market, Capital One also has First Industry Co., Ltd. under it. In the European market, it owns 51% of the shares of Nanbo Bank. ”

"First Industry Co., Ltd. now owns 51 percent of the shares of the Baltic Shipyard, 51 percent of the shares of the Volga Automobile Manufacturing Company, and 90 percent of the shares of the Neuer Nickel Company. ”

"First International Capital, in mainland China, there is also 100% of the shares of Jiuding Group, now, Jiuding Group is the largest beverage production company in the Chinese market, with tens of thousands of acres of land use rights, and has branches in Ukraine and Russia. ”

"In Hong Kong. Capital One also owns Yunji Trading Co., Ltd. ”

“......”

“......”

Plop, plop –

As Shen Jiannan talked about the scale of Capital One's assets, Murdoch felt a dry mouth.

He found that he did not seem to be at a loss.

To be precise, if these assets under Capital One are all together, then he will simply make a lot of money.

The Baltic Shipyard, the largest military-industrial shipyard in northern Russia, has dozens of military-industrial experts left over from the former Soviet Union, and each of those people is a treasure.

Standard Chartered Bank is one of the banks that issue Hong Kong dollars, and 15 percent of its shares are originally worth more than $700 million.

Yun Kee Trading Co., Ltd. has a monopoly on 70% of Hong Kong's fruit market, as well as a huge security system and thousands of professional security teams.

Daiichi Industry Co., Ltd., Jiuding Group, Nanbo Bank......

On top of that, Capital One has hundreds of millions of dollars worth of assets in global markets. ”

“......”

The anger on Murdoch's face was gone, replaced by confusion.

With so many trading companies, banks, and enterprises, if all of them are as Shen Jiannan said, the value of one percent of Capital One's shares has far exceeded the value of 30 percent of News Corporation's shares. So he didn't understand why Shen Jiannan's shrewdness was doing such a loss-making business.

Don't......

"Shen, I apologize for my attitude just now, and I hope you can forgive me. But I want to know, why are you doing this. ”

"Mr. Murdoch is polite. The only way to blame me is that I didn't make it clear. As for why I did this, you didn't already guess. ”

“......”

And so it was.

Looking at that young face, Murdoch had the feeling that he had lived in a dog all his life. At his age, it seemed that he was still fighting with people on the street for jealousy, but this guy in front of him had already embarked on a path he was trying to take now.

Demons, how can there be such demons in the world.

Even demons like Rockefeller and JP Morgan probably don't have such ambitions at their age.

At the same time.

In California, USA, a flight from Moscow landed smoothly at Sacramento International Airport.

Soon after, Marat Savage walked out of the airport hall with a leather bag and boarded a taxi. Soon, the taxi pulled into the bustling city center.

Sacramento was lit up at night, the car stopped in front of the Intercontinental Hotel, and Savage dropped a hundred dollars at random, striding into the hotel lobby amid the flattery and gratitude of the Mexican driver.

After opening the room, taking the room card, and under the leadership of the hotel waiter, it didn't take long for Savage to arrive at his room.

After taking a hot shower and getting tired of the car, Savage picked up the phone and dialed a number, chatted a few words, and then sat quietly in the living room, closed his eyes and pretended to sleep.

Bang bang –

There was a sudden knock on the door of the hotel room.

One long, two short and one long, Savage took out a pistol and wrapped himself in a bath towel and turned sideways behind the cat's eye.

From the cat's eye, it was clear that there was a blonde woman standing outside the gate, about thirty years old, with a strange and doubtful look in her eyes, and by feeling, Savage judged that the other party was not in danger.

Placing the pistol behind his back, Savage pulled open the closed door.

"Hello. Is it Mr. Asuka?"

"Who am I?"

"Someone asked me to give it to you. ”

A paper document bag.

Savage took it and rubbed it, making sure it was probably what he wanted.

"Thank you. ”

"The person who asked me to deliver something told me that you would pay me a hundred dollars. ”

“......”

Damn dirt dog, what a bastard.

Savage reluctantly returned to the living room, pulled out a hundred dollars from his jacket, and watched the woman leave before he closed the door and opened the file bag.

A few photos and a thin profile, the Asian woman, who looks to be in her early twenties, is tall and sexy, and in the eyes of Shavic, she is a rare and peerless beauty.

After flipping through the photos a few times, he picked up the information and looked at it.

Deng Wendi. Born in the third cave of Huaxia, he later met the fifty-year-old Kevin couple in the demon capital, and went to the United States with the help of the Kevin couple. He and Kevin are husband and wife, and they live at California University and live on Macon Street......

After reading the information, Marat Savage smashed his lip.

Although the woman in the photo is a peerless mistake, his boss asked him to travel thousands of miles from Europe to the United States, and he had to use the intelligence network left before, which is simply too much.

Could it be that this is love?

My boss, I hope you don't grieve too much, you probably, have been greened.

It's a pity that Shen Jiannan doesn't have clairvoyance and mind-reading skills, otherwise he would definitely squirt a mouthful of old blood onto the wall.

This guy was smiling and talking to Rupert Murdoch.

No one is disgusted with more money.

So, there are no surprises.

After determining that this strong alliance would bring rich returns to themselves, Murdoch and Shen Jiannan finalized a rough cooperation agreement on the spot. Murdoch exchanged a 30 percent stake in News Corp. for a 1 percent stake in First Capital.

Of course, finalizing the framework is only a temporary verbal agreement, and whether it can be reached or not still needs to be proved by First Capital.

The tension between the two was gone, and suddenly, it was like they had become old friends who had known each other for a long time, sitting together and negotiating happily.

"Rupert. My friend, I don't think long before you will understand what our cooperation will bring you in return. ”

"Finland's economy is already in serious trouble. ”

“......”

"If you're interested, you can also get a piece of the pie, and of course, I wouldn't mind you participating as an individual. ”

“......”

Short selling a country's currency and defeating a country's central bank.

After chatting with Shen Jiannan again, Rupert Murdoch was stunned in shock. He finally understood why Shen Jiannan would cooperate with News Corporation at any cost.

But...... Finland, a country with complete sovereignty, is economically strong enough to rank among the top 20 in the world, and its per capita wealth has even reached the top five in the world.

In such a country, some people actually say that they want to snipe their currency.

Her dark eyes shone with a powerful confidence, and looking at that face that was too young to be excessive, Rupert Murdoch felt like the whole world had gone crazy.

"Shen. My friend, are you serious?"

“......”
