Chapter 279: Follow-up

Several times of perfect solutions to the troubles and turmoil they encountered, so that everyone has a deeper understanding of Zhou Shi's ability. Zhou Shi came to Seattle for the annual meeting, and the people on Amazon's board of directors were much more enthusiastic about him.

Since the acquisition of YouTube, Amazon's financial pressure has not become smaller, but much larger, which is also expected. Bond issuance or targeted financing can solve this problem. It is an indisputable fact that Bezos's ability to raise funds is far stronger than that of Zhou Shi. He came to Amazon this time because he felt that it would be a great waste to rely only on his own funds for future development, and how to borrow money or steal from Bezos, and by the way, create some small troubles for him.

Bezos still warmly entertained Zhou Shi, no matter what, if you do something, you have to be mentally prepared, he is not so easy to mess with. Small contradictions are inevitable, big contradictions are difficult to produce, and two smart people are carefully testing each other's bottom line. Giving Bezos a few minor troubles, Zhou Shi made a real request to add Shirley and Chad Hewley to Amazon's board of directors. As the majority shareholder of the company, this is the right thing to do, and it is impossible for YouTube to be the only one who becomes a director of Amazon. Even if three people joined, that would only be about a quarter of the seats on the board of eleven.

"It can't be!" Bezos roared

"Nothing is impossible, and we deserve it. Zhou Shi was unmoved

"There aren't so many seats on the board. Bezos suppressed his emotions

"YouTube's development deserves such a seat. Zhou Shi said expressionlessly

After a few rounds, Zhou Shi finally got his wish, and he didn't cause trouble for Bezos in the subsequent meetings.

The Dark Knight's influence continues to spread, and the '08 Olympics are finally about to begin, and Zhou Shi is invited to attend the opening ceremony. That's right, he was invited to attend the opening ceremony. Not only him, but also Lu He received the same treatment.

"What's the matter, so excited!" Zhou Shi teased Lu He

"This Olympic Games is a centennial event for our country, and it is an honor for us to be able to participate in such a grand event. Lu He was so excited that he couldn't speak.

"Oh!" Zhou Shi didn't feel too much, ten years later, Huaxia was more powerful and rational. He didn't think that such a sports would be of much significance, after all, he didn't buy tickets for the opening ceremony in his previous life, and he didn't go to Yanjing at all that year. Although I watched the live broadcast of the opening ceremony, I also felt that it was beautiful, but Zhou Shi has always been far more rational than emotional, and beauty is beautiful, without the support of spiritual soul. Even ten years later, the blood of the Chinese people has been suppressed by the government, and under the pressure of life, most of them are a group of sheep who have been kept in captivity and have no spirit of resistance.

Ten years later, although China was rich and strong, the Chinese people were extremely weak. There are many reasons for this, the biggest of which is that Huaxia does not have a legal provision for "legitimate defense". Some researchers obtained 226 judgments from the cases of justifiable defense publicized by courts at all levels across the country, and the vast majority of them were found to be not justified or excessively defended, and only 6% were found to be justifiable. It is worth noting that these samples are already considered cases in which there is a certain degree of controversy over the determination of legitimate defense, and more cases of defensive acts have not been considered at all due to the failure to meet the legal conditions.

Even most people think so: the current justified defense, when you stab you, the counterattack does not count, it is an attempt, it does not count if you have already stabbed in, it is considered to stop the damage, the knife comes out does not count, it is considered to stop the damage.

Although Zhou Shi was in a complicated mood, he still took Wang Xirui to participate in this centennial event, and Li Ying and Lu He acted together.

"We've all left the United States, nothing will happen here, right?" Zhou Shi

"It's okay, it's all arranged. "Lu He

"Oh, that's right, by the way, there is a Chinese on my side, he is from Goldman Sachs, you see if you can arrange for the Vermilion Bird Fund. Zhou Shi said casually

"Okay, let him come over and I'll take a look. Lu He was stunned for a moment and said.

"Well, he's outside, you guys talk, I'll go to Marvel to have a look. After Zhou Shi finished speaking, he walked out. It's just normal staffing, it's nothing.

The two blockbuster movies in a row ignited everyone's confidence, and the huge amount of borrowing overwhelmed everyone, so they joined in from time to time, giving them more room to maneuver. The success of these two films shows that they have come out of their current predicament. However, under the influence of the subprime mortgage crisis, Wall Street's investment in the film and television industry is much smaller, Kevin has not found a suitable investor, and Marvel's third movie has not been decided.

"Iron Man, Captain America, Thor, S.H.I.E.L.D!" Zhou Shi didn't worry too much, he wasn't interested in how many heroes Marvel had, anyway, he acted like this in his previous life.

"So which one are we going to choose for the next movie? or both?"

"When will my funds arrive. Zhou Shi thought that the investment in these two movies is Marvel's, and in addition to the distribution costs, there is no need to share the account with others. According to the general rule, they can receive $500 million to $600 million, and after deducting the cost of $300 million, they will have enough money to start shooting the next movie. And there is follow-up copyright income, so it is impossible to be short of money.

"The arrival of the touchstone may take half a year. "Kevin

"Do you want to borrow money again?" Zhou Shi

"It's very difficult to borrow money from the bank right now. "Kevin

It's all caused by this subprime mortgage crisis, and even a successful company like Marvel is in difficulty, and I don't know what treatment other companies will get.

"Try to urge them to hurry up!" Zhou Shicai didn't believe that the touchstone was so eyeless, there would be more cooperation in the future, and they couldn't afford the money.

"Well, but is the current market environment really suitable?"

"What's inappropriate, let Captain America save the subprime mortgage crisis!" Zhou Shi said irresponsibly.

Captain America, Steve Rogers is a fragile young man born in a poor family during the Great Depression, he struggled with **, the current situation is very similar to the Great Depression, Captain America came out to fight against Wall Street, think about this style of painting is still very strange.

Jack Dorsey became the CEO of Twitter again, and began a difficult expansion during the financial crisis, making great strides towards the mobile Internet with Friends.com. There were also changes in the Android system, and Nokia suddenly decided to buy Symbian and gave up negotiations with Time. However, Samsung is very interested, but they want too much, Zhou Shi originally wanted to refuse directly, but thinking that there will be many people who ask for them in the future, he is not willful.

Three days before the start of the Olympics, I returned to Yanjing.
