Chapter 846: Jos, who is extremely ambitious
Los Angeles is the capital of business and entertainment, the home of Hollywood, the world's film and television industry, and the ultimate dream of countless actors around the world who want to become superstars.
"Hi, Jos, long time no see. When he came to the overseas branch of Haina Entertainment, Yang Dongxu stepped forward with a smile and gave Jos, the little old man, a hug.
The Haina branch has gained a firm foothold in the American market, and the little old man in front of Lian Zhan Lianjie can be said to have made great contributions, especially in terms of cooperating with some well-known Hollywood directors and Yuanyuan blockbusters, which couldn't be better.
"Hello, boss, you're still so young. Joss said with a smile.
He has also enjoyed the past two years, although the work is much more tiring than before, but everything is worth it. Compared with the previous EI, the company's influence has been low year by year, and the market has been encroached upon by other music companies.
Now the job is tiring but more glamorous, and compared to most Britons, they like to keep it, or simply live in the glory of the past. Although almost 60 years old, Jos prefers to pioneer and squeeze the most drop of oil in his engine to rush forward.
"You're in better spirits than before, and it looks like we can add a little more work to your workload. ”
"Oh!no, boss, you can't do this, I'm very busy now, if you add more work to me, I'll sue you in court. Jos glared at Yang Dongxu fiercely, and the two of them looked at each other and then laughed instantly.
Attracted the company's insiders to keep looking sideways to this side, not knowing what good things their general manager and big boss had encountered, and Xiao was so happy.
"Let's talk about the recent situation of the company, I heard that after winning these movies, some people began to join forces to block us?"
"A group of moths who can't make their own achievements and can only lie on others and suck blood. Jos, who had a smile on his face, instantly turned disgusted and angry.
Obviously, the situation is more serious than Yang Dongxu knows, otherwise this old British man, who has always been a gentleman, would not put his anger on his face unabashedly.
"Tell me what's going on?" Yang Dongxu said.
"Haina Company has achieved good results in the past two years, whether it is variety shows, songs, or film and television, it has come up with dazzling masterpieces, so some people are starting to get a piece of the pie. Joss said.
"What do you think?" Yang Dongxu asked.
"We may have to add a few new shareholders. Jos said after a moment's silence.
"Compromise?" Yang Dongxu raised his eyebrows, he knew in his heart that it was a good thing to find influential shareholders in the United States for the Haina branch, which could accelerate the development of the company, but he might take the initiative to find shareholders to join, but he hated being forced to do so.
"Not looking for those nasty bugs, but looking for other beneficial partners. Now that the dot-com bubble has just burst, many bosses with capital have money in their hands and don't know how to invest. Some of them may not have much influence in Hollywood, but they can help us a lot in other ways. Joss said.
"For example?"
"For example, some big bosses say that the parliamentarians standing behind them have strong political capital, or for example, they have a way to make the bedbugs who have been looking for trouble lately deflated, but these bedbugs dare not offend them. ”
What Jos said was not very detailed, but Yang Dongxu understood. This is indeed a win-win option, the Haina branch allows the other party to invest in shares, and the other party doubles the money invested by the other party to feed back, while the other party helps them to come up and suck the blood of the bed bugs in the outside world.
"Is there a suitable target?" Yang Dongxu asked, rubbing his chin.
"Kennedy!" Jos exhaled in a deep breath and exhaled these three words, as if they weighed a thousand pounds.
"Huh?" Yang Dongxu's eyebrows instantly locked into a Sichuan character, and he slowly loosened it after half a sound, "How could you choose him?" and with the current assets of Haina Company, people can't look down on it, right? They took the initiative to contact you?"
No wonder Yang Dongxu reacted so much, the Kennedy family is one of the four major political families in the United States, in the eyes of such a big man, not to mention Haina's overseas branches, even if it is Haina Company, it is nothing in the eyes of the other party, right?
"It wasn't him who looked for us, I took the initiative to find them, and I didn't even need them to invest too much money, and promised a 15-year stake commitment once they cooperated. Not the shares of the Haina branch, but the shares of the entire Haina 15. Jos spoke.
Yang Dongxu frowned, looked at the old British man in front of him, and waited for the following.
"Do you know about the JFK Jr. plane crash?" said Joss about something he didn't want to care about with this collaboration.
Yang Dongxu nodded, he naturally knew about it, after all, this was just happened in July last year, and the whole world knew about it.
At one point, some people even speculated that this was another assassination of the Kennedy family, and to be honest, the fate of this American political family is indeed ill.
At first, the four brothers Joseph Jr. died in World War II, which was no way out, and finally John F. Kennedy became president, and the family was about to go further, and was assassinated.
Then there was Robert F. Kennedy, the third-in-line attorney general, who was another pillar that could revitalize the Kennedy family, and was assassinated.
One of the four brothers survived, Edward Kennedy, who lost the final presidential race and ended up serving as a Senate in Mazhou.
And last year, the son of former President John F. Kennedy, that is, Kennedy Jr., a talented man who grew up in the Kennedy family.
The chairman of George magazine, who was expected to become the second president of the Kennedy family if he ran for president, was evaluated by People magazine as "America's sexiest man", and finally left because of a plane crash.
This family, which stands at the top of the American political pyramid, is simply a sad family. It is even called a curse by many people.
"Some people say it's an assassination, some people say it's an accident, but in short, there is no judgment on what the matter really is. His death was a great blow to the Kennedy family, both politically and economically.
At present, the most capable of the Kennedy family is Edward Kennedy, but he is 68 years old this year, and the rest of the Kennedy family is difficult to take on the role of adulthood, and the small ones lack the time to grow up. Jos spoke.
"But what do we have to do with that? Regardless of whether Kennedy Jr.'s death was an accident or a murder, but the assassination of his father and uncle is a fact, do you think Haina can withstand the assassination of the president and the U.S. Attorney General?" said Yang Dongxu.
The death of Kennedy Jr. did have a tendency to bring the Kennedy family to a slump, after all, the resources invested in cultivating such a successor are absolutely amazing to unimaginable, and now that people are gone, all investment will be wasted, and there will be no return at all.
And this is indeed a good opportunity for some speculators to buy the bottom, take advantage of the weakness of the Kennedy family, and maybe get a rich report.
As for falling into the well, the injured lion is still a lion, and if he really wants to swallow the giant thing Kennedy, there are few people in the United States who can do it, and those who can do it are not easy to do it, after all, once it is related to the assassination, at least the skin is peeled, and it is not cost-effective to emerge at present.
But speculation is not something that everyone can mix, at least Yang Dongxu's little arms and legs can't be mixed up now, and any person who is related to the assassination comes out is a great threat to his life.
"Naturally, we can't make enemies of those people, but we're just doing some business with the Kennedys and not getting involved in politics. Jos spoke.
"This" Yang Dongxu couldn't help but fall into deep thought.
Politics is a sensitive thing in that country, especially when foreigners are involved, the light deportation is on the return list, and the heavy one directly leaves a small life.
But if it is just a simple business cooperation, the risk is much smaller, Hainer waved the banner of the Kennedy family to resist those red-eyed bed bugs, and the Kennedy family returned some profits from Hainer to ease his breath.
Whether it is politics or business, the final result is whether you have money in your hand. Kennedy Jr.'s death not only completely disappointed the Kennedy family's political expectations, but also undoubtedly became financially strapped in an instant. Although their family still has a lot of huge inheritance, but so many inheritances can't all be put in the bank and moldy, right?
"What do you think specifically?" Yang Dongxu asked after a moment of silence.
"Pure commercial cooperation, pure commercial cooperation that absolutely does not involve politics. Using the influence of the Kennedy family in the United States, Haina has completely established itself and has the opportunity to compete with several other giants in the same industry.
On the surface, Haina has indeed been steadily rising in recent years, and its profits have gradually increased. However, in terms of status and influence, Haina is inferior to several other entertainment giants even in Asia.
And if you want to compete, you should increase your influence by pulling in those small family shareholders, such as finding a boss-level in one step. And now there happens to be such a good opportunity, so it is natural to seize it. Jos spoke.
Yang Dongxu fell silent again, although Jos's words were vague, he already understood. If Hainer wants to become an international entertainment giant, especially on the American side, it must have a strong backer.
It's like Yang Dongxu has enough resources in China, and although Haina is so profitable, although many people are red-eyed, they can only look at it and dare not come up to grab a reason.
He must also find a backer on the side of the United States that makes those red-eyed people dare not rob openly, otherwise the capitalist face will make you doubt your life in an ugly way, and they will even make a separate legislation to make him legal for illegally robbing you.
Whether it is Universal or Warner, such a giant in the entertainment industry, it is only because it has become a giant and it is directly related to the consortium standing behind them.
Otherwise, these companies are estimated to die halfway through their growth, and the reason why Jos sought the Kennedy family was also to want Haina to become a giant.
