Chapter 74: Subprime Mortgages and the Crisis
In November, Zhang Zhao reached a cooperation agreement with UPN, and Mango also had employees to participate in the production of the American version of the talent show. The copyrights in other places have not been released, Zhou Shi and Zhang Zhao are not fools, the American Got Talent is hot again, and the copyright price will definitely rise. However, the loss is UPN, if the other four major TV networks will definitely not have the opportunity to be treated fairly, ABC has never agreed to the corresponding standard advertising sharing plan in the European and American industries.
Another gain of Starlight Film and Television is that Zhao Xiaodao was pushed to the top ten of Supergirl, which is really an unexpected surprise. Although Zhao Xiaodao has three songs by Zhou Shi: The brightest star in the night sky, we are different, in my song. But the comprehensive strength is really not as good as Li Yuchun, and the fan team is even inferior to corn, and Zhou Shi has no way to do it. Although the game is still going on, it is basically delusional to go further, and Long Danni also called to inform that there is no longer any special care.
Starlight Film and Television's two pioneering works are also underway, and Crazy Stone has invested 5 million, and the works and scripts are even more sophisticated. The staffing has basically not changed, and the soldier assault is the same, basically the same as those in the previous life. Starlight Film and Television does not have its own trained actor team, and the huge income from variety shows made Zhang Zhao decide to cultivate a few behind-the-scenes film and television production teams first. The early film and television investment is mainly to use other people's stars and actors, which can also reduce some conflicts and suppression. Of course, there must be descendants of his own actors, but he still has to start training from newcomers and powerful actors.
Sure enough, Zhao Xiaodao was quickly eliminated. Zhang Zhao threw her into the crazy stone crew and found her a training class next year. It is said that Zhou Shi also broke his heart for her, and as soon as the three original songs came out, netizens commented that three good songs were wasted. Fortunately, it is a pen name, no one knows that it was Zhou Shi, and few people even know the relationship between Zhou Shi and Starlight Film and Television. However, this very small number of people does not include Wang Xirui.
"The song you want to send me is" "In my song"?" Wang Xirui stopped Zhou Shi's further action.
"That's right!" Zhou Shi said calmly
"Why do you want to sing to her?" Wang Xirui
"No, I just know her as a star. "Zhou Shi
"When you knew her, she was a star, why didn't you sing to Yayun!" Wang Xirui
"You want your relatives to go out and show their faces, maybe you will be uncovered"
"Okay, it turns out that you want to uncover the rules Zhao Liying! I kind of understand, you rascal" said and kicked Zhou Shi down.
"Hey, can you be reasonable, I want an unspoken rule, how can it be a prosperous beauty like Liu Tianxian, how can it be an unspoken rule that a little girl like Zhao Xiaodao wants nothing!" Zhou Shi
"You rascal, you still want to uncover Liu Tianxian. Get out of here, get away!" He stood up and kicked Zhou Shi out of the bedroom door. No matter how Zhou Shi explained, he didn't open the door.
Fortunately, there are three bedrooms, a living room, and bed linen and bedding are prepared.
Poor Zhou Shi, there is no good life in the next few days, there is no place to need him, the current game company is fully staffed, and even people of Yao Xiaoguan's level are said to have come three or four, Zhou Shi has invested heavily in self-developed games, which still attracts some personnel. According to Zhou Shi's plan, which is the crossfire of the future fire, Yao Xiaoguan personally invited talents in this area, and when this side stabilizes, he will also go to South Korea to acquire a game studio. At present, domestic game development talents are still limited. In addition to consuming time, it is to ask for foreign help. Zhou Shi obviously didn't want to waste time, and overseas game development studios were a necessity.
However, after a few days of such hard days, Zhou Shi's explanation of Lu He was finally done. He had a whim and wanted to acquire Analysys International, but Ye Yang obviously couldn't agree, so Zhou Shi retreated and chose to buy shares. It was also a lot of entanglement before the other party agreed. Fortunately, Lu He's profound skills won the respect of the other party, and finally won this order. Galaxy Investment invested US$3 million, accounting for 30% of the shares. Zhou Shi's investment is not to make money, but to have more think tanks and discourse, Analysys International is obviously a collection of high-quality people. In addition to researching the TMT industry, Zhou Shi also asked them to gather people to go to the United States to conduct research on the real estate and subprime mortgage markets in the name of Galaxy Investment, and this part of the funds was naturally provided by Galaxy Investment.
"You should say your goals this time!" Lu He and Zhou Shi sat opposite each other, a high-achieving student with a doctorate degree, and he actually admired Zhou Shi deeply, this admiration is not only reflected in the financial market, but also he basically knows the composition of Zhou Shi's entire industry. If you don't accept it, Zhou Shi is simply a money-making machine, with hundreds of millions of dollars in assets at a young age.
"Do you know what I found last time I stayed in the United States for so long?"
"What, there is a problem with the mortgage market?" Lu He reacted suddenly.
Zhou Shi was deeply shocked when he saw this person's reaction speed so quickly. Damn, what kind of person is this, is there really a big difference between a genius and a mortal?
"Well, that's right. As soon as I arrived in the U.S., I was pitched a property, and I even saw a homeless man manage to buy a big house, which is incredible. "Zhou Shi is, how can anyone sell him real estate, let alone a homeless man. In less than a month, I visited Hollywood, how can I have so much time to hang out.
"If that's the case, then they're in serious trouble. Lu He pondered
"That's why I wanted to find someone to do the research. "Zhou Shi
"But you don't need to invest in them, just give money to cooperate," Lu He
"Uh~~ I also made a conscious decision, and I feel that they are very useful. Zhou Shi is embarrassed
Lu He looked at this boss who sometimes made two mistakes, and he couldn't say anything, and he liked to pretend to be false.
"Then what do you want to do through their real estate crisis?" Lu He
"I want to achieve leapfrog development through this crisis!" Zhou Shi was a little excited, this is a rare thing in decades.
"Do you know how much of their real estate market as a percentage of GDP? How much do you think the real estate crisis can have?" Lu He wanted to make Zhou Shi sober up.
When Zhou Shi heard this, he felt much more relaxed, even if he was a genius, there were times when he couldn't see it.
"Do you know Li Xianglin?" asked David X. Li. Zhou
"On Default Correlation: A Copula Function Approach" Lu He thought for a while and gave the answer.
Zhou Shi wanted to cry again, if he hadn't studied the subprime mortgage crisis in his previous life, he would not have discovered this person. Dr. Li Xianglin was one of the early pioneers of the credit derivatives market, and in 2000, he published a paper in the financial journal Fixed Income, "On the Correlation of Default: A Dependency Function Method", and the formula in the paper was later known as the "Li Formula". It laid the foundation for the rapid development of the global credit portfolio market. In other words, it laid the theoretical foundation for the global credit default swap (CDS), and it is irresponsible to say that the subprime mortgage crisis came after this paper.
"I seem to have seen data in a financial journal that showed that in June of a few years, the transaction size of CDS reached 10 trillion US dollars, which is not wrong, 10 trillion. Debt-backed bonds (CDOs), an asset securitization product based on CDS, have also reached a market size of 500 billion yuan. Zhou Shi had indeed seen such a journal, which he was looking for, otherwise he would not have been able to remember such accurate data.
