Chapter 564: An Olive Branch from Tata
Indians tried a little earlier in Hollywood than Huaxia Capital, and Reliance Entertainment was founded in '05 by Indian giant Reliance Group, and they have a partnership with Spielberg's Amblin Company. also invested hundreds of millions of dollars into the company, and the follow-up funds were allocated to many film projects, the overall investment should exceed one billion dollars, as for how much they made in the end, it is unknown, anyway, the box office rankings can't see their results, and then they couldn't hold it and chose to quit, and Huaxia's Ali Pictures chose to take over, that is, the company called Amblin, the film company that made "Ready Player One".
But the Tata Group, right? This is the pride of India, a national enterprise, and some people who are not confident still think that there are no Chinese enterprises in the country that surpass the Tata Group. Although Zhou Shi does not think that Tata is so great, and it is not such a difficult enterprise to surpass, it is undoubtedly a very good company. Soon he learned about his partnership with Tata from various sources. Chery Group and Tata Group's Jaguar Land Rover have cooperation in China, and Guoke and Nut Mobile have cooperation with Tata in India.
Hollywood is like a lit candle that attracts countless moths around the globe. There are no taboos to attract this global capital to participate in their game, and there are intangible or tangible restrictions on Arab capital and Chinese capital, as for Indian capital, there are basically not many restrictions, and the generation of Indian tycoons who got rich first to invest in Hollywood may have lost a lot. It is also Zhou Shi's good luck that the son of destiny who has made a lot of money from investing in several major projects in a row was accepted by Hollywood very smoothly. Sony's Universal Pictures paid billions of dollars in tuition before it was able to officially establish itself in Hollywood. Zhou Shi's success and this external financing is undoubtedly a very rare opportunity for companies that want to invest in Hollywood, and some state-owned enterprises can not care about Zhou Shi's sincerity.
This time, it was Ratan Tata, the head of Tata, who came to Huaxia to meet Zhou Shi, and a small voice actually alarmed their top leader, which is also very rare.
"It's a pleasure to meet you!" Zhou Shi took the initiative to greet him, the son of Tata is a very awesome person.
"I'm glad to meet you too!" Ratan Tata, although he doesn't know Zhou Shi's true net worth, his influence in Galaxy Capital, Sixiang Fund, and companies such as Time and Guoke is obvious to all. Even India, YouTube, friends, Twitter, and other frequently used sites are inextricably linked to him. Regardless of whether Tata wants to explore the international market or the Chinese market, at least in terms of publicity and promotion, Zhou Shi is a good partner. Not to mention that there are more opportunities for them to work together in India.
The two quickly got to the point, and although the cooperation in Miramax is a small matter, it must be done as soon as possible, which is the basis for the expansion of cooperation between the two sides. In fact, Zhou Shi doesn't really want to cooperate with Tata, although this company is awesome, but the succession problem in a few years will undoubtedly greatly hinder the development of the company. He didn't have the idea of taking advantage of the opportunity to make profits, and just wanted to do a good business. And in the Indian telecom market, Tata Telecom is not the most important partner of Guoke mobile phones. Like the UK, Vodafone is the first choice of Guoke, and Nut Mobile chose EE (EverythingEveryhere) telecom.
The five-percent stake obviously could not satisfy Tata's appetite, and Zhou Shi had no choice but to pick up other people's ideas, and the first thing that came to mind was Huatou. No matter how close the relationship between Huaxia and Pakistan is to the railway, it will not affect Huatou to make money in India. To be honest, India's development speed is about to replace China as the world's best, but it has not yet been regarded as an opponent by China. However, the complementarity between China and India is still okay, and Huatou is also more interested in entering the Indian market to invest.
"Haha, you've finally extended your tentacles to India?" Gao Xiqing
"You think too much, this time it's just a simple cooperation, and I don't know the future!" Zhou Shi, although there are several branches in India, and Nut Mobile is also preparing to build a factory in India, but a longer-term cooperation is not yet imaginable.
"With a beginning, there may be a future. "High festivity
"Forget it, don't talk about these unreliable, now Tata wants shares, what do you say?" Zhou Shi directly threw the question at him
"Let's take a look first, see if there is a chance to cooperate, otherwise forget it" Gao Xiqing obviously knew that if he didn't see a rabbit or an eagle, the benefits could not be given in vain. So Zhou Shi didn't go to Huaying for this, Huayi, etc., although Bollywood is not as good as Hollywood, but it is still much stronger than the current Chinese film market, especially in terms of external export, Bollywood movies are N times stronger than Chinese movies. As for importing Chinese into the Indian market, it is possible, but it should not be their responsibility now.
Zhou Shi waited for two days, and saw that Ratan Tata really had no other meaning, knowing that this time it might be more to get to know Zhou Shi, the young richest man in China, the person who is most likely to surpass Bill Gates in the world. It may also pave the way for future cooperation between the two sides.
To be honest, Zhou Shi's success surprised many people who knew him. For example, Robin Lee, and Sequoia China, Zhou Shi later heard that Shen Nanpeng even said on a semi-public occasion that Zhou Shi didn't understand any technology like this, and it was a miracle that only fantasy entrepreneurs had their current achievements, which was not in line with his insistence on investment logic at all. Then, Zhou Shi has grown up rapidly in recent years, and his fantasy has become a reality. Maybe a down-to-earth person like Ratan Tata doesn't think much of Zhou Shi. Zhou Shi can't be blamed, he has been busy monetizing knowledge (prophets) over the years, and he doesn't have much time to study, even if he finds time, he is more focused on management and personnel. He has always believed that as long as he finds excellent and suitable talents, he does not have to worry about the development of the enterprise. As for strategic issues, the future of the world, the future of the country, the future of business, he really didn't have much time to think about it.
The development of the enterprise needs him to master between the virtual and the real, he has seven or eight years of prophet in the world and the Internet high-tech industry, in the abundant funds, the talent organization structure is perfect, and all kinds of conditions are ready, enough for several of his technology companies to grow into the world's top companies. The most important thing he needs to do is to keep the company stable and stay on the right path.
Zhou Shi reflected again and again, and finally determined that he had done nothing wrong. He doesn't care what other people think, all he can do is be the best version of himself.
