"It's not that I want to go back early, it's just that something went wrong. The last time Bill went back to the U.S., I assigned him two assignments, and now they are not going well, so I can't go back. ”

Zheng Yan's task is not about the creation of the venture capital department, but about Netscape and Longteng Entertainment.

Netscape is growing very fast, and it will be a few months before it starts to bear fruit, and at that point, Microsoft will naturally realize the crisis posed by Netscape. If Zheng Yan can't complete the layout before then, he won't be able to realize his plan.

As for Longteng Entertainment, Zheng Yan was indeed ready to let go completely, but the sudden appearance of Eiichiro Morita disrupted his plan and forced him to make some adjustments, which was the second task for Bill.

The first task just didn't go well, which was still within Zheng Yan's tolerance, but there was a problem with Longteng Entertainment, not only did it not progress, but Zheng Yan's optimistic cake was eaten by others, which was unbearable.

When Zheng Yan and Bill Miller were talking, Liu Wei and Larry Ellison were not present, so Liu Wei didn't know that the most important reason for Zheng Yan to return early this time was Long Teng, otherwise he would have been in a hurry.

"You don't have to be sad, now that we're back, there's always a solution to the problem. ”

How did Liu Wei know that this time the matter was not easy to solve, especially about Longteng. Originally, according to Zheng Yan's idea, as long as the plan is completed, Long Teng will have the capital to become a Hollywood giant, although it is still possible now, but the loss is inevitable.

However, Zheng Yan understood better that even if he told Liu Wei, he couldn't help, at most he was just worried about one more person, so he didn't speak. Liu Wei also saw that Zheng Yan was thinking about things, so he didn't say anything more.

Although it was still a flight of more than ten hours, because of the various supporting facilities and the fact that everyone had their own room to rest, no one felt that it was too difficult. As for Zheng Yanda's idea of being slept together, it still did not come true under the strong resistance of the four Enrons.

When the plane arrived in New York, Morry Wharton, the housekeeper of the estate, had already brought someone to meet him at the airport. For Zheng Ruoxue's pony and pet dog, a small truck was also driven.

After returning to the manor, Zheng Ruoxue was extremely excited, and was full of curiosity about the ancient castle she saw for the first time, so she took Liu Shiyu, Zheng Mingzhe and Li Zixuan to explore in the ancient castle. And An Ran and the others followed closely behind the buttocks, for fear that a few little guys would have an accident.

It didn't take long for Bill Miller, who got the news, to rush over, "Zheng Yan, I'm very sorry, you arranged two tasks for me in total, but I didn't complete any of them, and I asked you to run it yourself." ”

"Alright Bill, I was going to come back too, but this time just a little earlier. Besides, it's not your area of expertise in the first place, so you can't be blamed. You better tell me about the specific situation, how will Marvel reply?"

Zheng Yan knows very well that in normal investment comprehension, Bill Miller has a talent that is difficult for ordinary people to achieve, but if you want to say that like Zheng Yan, who makes all kinds of investments out of whimsical imagination, he will become constrained, and ten percent of his skills will not be able to play one percent.

Although Bill Miller did not complete Zheng Yan's entrustment, he investigated the various situations in great detail, and said directly: "Most of Marvel's shareholders agreed to sell Marvel, but because the other party's asking price was too high, I didn't agree." ”

"Actually, I think that if it's just to adapt the comic into a movie, we can directly buy out the movie rights of the comics. According to my research, Marvel's sale of "X-Men" to Twentieth Century Fox Films was only $4 million. ”

"And the current Marvel, although the market value is still about $100 million, has a debt of more than $200 million. According to Ron Pereman, if we want to buy Marvel, we can only buy it at a premium on top of all its debts. ”

In other words, for a Marvel that could go bankrupt at any time, we need to pay at least $300 million. If we have this money, we can buy the film adaptation rights of any comic book character we like. ”

"The current Marvel is not what it used to be, since it was acquired by Ron Perreman five years ago, in order to make money, he wantonly overdrew the value of Marvel's peripherals, bought various toy companies and small publishers, and left nothing for Marvel except for a butt of debt. ”

It can be seen that Bill Miller is not interested in acquiring Marvel at all. It's just that he doesn't know that what Zheng Yan is optimistic about is precisely the peripheral value of Marvel heroes.

The current Marvel seems to be worthless, but as long as various movies adapted from Marvel heroes are released, the peripheral value of those heroes will be re-reflected, and it will be ten times more than in the past.

If it is just the adaptation rights of the movie, Zheng Yan is confident that Longteng will make billions of dollars in profits, but as long as those peripheral values are added, this number will expand several times, or even more than ten times.

"Bill, let's not talk about whether Marvel has the value of acquisition. Since Ron Perreman is Marvel's largest shareholder, you might as well tell me about this person. ”

Whether in his previous life or in this life, Zheng Yan heard the name Ron Perreman for the first time. And Zheng Yan can see that Bill Miller's evaluation of this person is quite low, and it can even be said that he is disgusted, which is also the first time Zheng Yan has felt this emotion from Bill Miller.

"Ron Pereman? I don't have anything to say about this man. Let's put it this way, you are called the investment god of Wall Street by some people because of your investment in the crude oil market and your investment in the Internet, and Ron Pereman, if you give him a similar name, I think the wolf of Wall Street is the most suitable for him. ”

"Presumably, just by virtue of this title, you should also know what kind of person this is, he has no other characteristics except greed, and it is greed beyond your imagination. ”

"He started by buying companies, and almost all of them ended up bankrupt after his company, but he himself got a lot of benefits from it, which is why I don't want to deal with him. ”

Hearing Bill Miller's evaluation of Ron Pereman, Zheng Yan couldn't help but feel funny. In Zheng Yan's memory, there is a movie called "The Wolf of Wall Street", and I didn't expect Bill Miller to use this term for Ron Pereman.
