Chapter 968: Tang En wants to break the record
Don was really in the aisle, and taught Anne Hathaway and Sienna Miller a hard lesson, and coincidentally, Tosca Musk and Ella Fisher came to report to work.
Tosca Musk is talking about two parts of the Interactive Entertainment Division.
First, the total number of registered users of Facebook exceeded 3 million. And last night, the number of users who were online at the same time reached 500,000!
Such a remarkable achievement has naturally attracted the attention of some investment funds, including Sequoia Capital, five or six angel investment institutions, all of which are interested in raising funds to help New Global support and develop this network project.
According to normal business logic, New Globe should agree.
Facebook needs a lot of money in the process of development. Whether this project will succeed in the future is still unknown. In the same industry, Facebook still has at least 5 similar competitors, and some competitors are extremely strong!
Even if Facebook is backed by New Globe, it does not have an absolute advantage over some competitors.
In this case, it is feasible to bring in external funds, share risks, and use the channels of those venture capital institutions to further promote and expand the influence of Facebook.
Don is different, though.
He was prescient.
The future of Facebook is incomparably ambitious!
At this time, if you sell your shares, you will really be in the water.
"Tell them that New Globe is not short of money! and there is no shortage of marketing methods!" Donn replied simply, rejecting all funds that covet Facebook.
New Universal has the most powerful star resources in the world.
Now Facebook is just getting started, and Don has not yet used celebrity resources to promote it.
When the time is ripe, as long as Don En raises his arms, Hollywood stars will join Facebook in a high-profile manner, and at that time, no one can stop Facebook from taking off!
After receiving the instruction, Tosca Musk did not leave immediately, but watched the show with great interest for a while. It wasn't until Sienna Miller couldn't stand it a little and was about to pull her into the water that she turned away with a grin.
Although Tosca Musk is not his woman, as his first assistant, he has a closer relationship than many women who have had intimate contacts.
Don didn't mind letting her admire her majestic masculine body.
After a while, the secretary Ella Fisher also came over, and she reported not anything important, but a notice: "Don, there is internal news from Times Press, this time the person of the year selection, you seem to be about to fall off the list." ”
Tang En's active body stopped at once, slightly stunned.
Anne Hathaway, who was pressed by Donn against the wall to fight, finally had a chance to take a break, wiped a handful of sweat from her nose, wheezed a little heavily, looked back at Ella, and asked suspiciously: "Person of the Year?" Is it Time Magazine?"
Ira Fisher nodded repeatedly, "Yes, Time." ”
Tang En frowned, his expression unkind, "What's the matter?"
In front of outsiders, Tang En will behave lightly, as if he doesn't care about all fame and fortune, and looks like a master.
However, all of the people present are his own people, and these three women have had intimate contact with him, so there is no need to avoid anything.
This is Time Magazine!
It is the most influential publication in the world!
And the Person of the Year selected by Time Magazine will also be the most sensational person in the world in this era!
This year, Don has done a lot of great things.
took down Bill Cosby, took down Harvey Weinstein, took down Jimmy Saville, and exposed the sexual assault scandal in American sports. Not only that, he acquired Discovery Channel, Liverpool, Prada, launched World of Warcraft, and created Facebook......
In 2004, was there a more active and well-known figure in the world than Don Walker?
Ella Fisher said softly: "It seems that it was instructed by the high-level that the editorial department of Time Magazine wanted to evaluate you on the list, but the senior management of Time Warner seems to have some opinions...... However, there is no precise bill yet. Time magazine struggled for journalistic independence and didn't want to compromise. ”
Time Warner's top brass disagree?
Interesting!
Let's talk about it.
Was it a deliberate targeting by Time Warner?
There's no need!
Even if Time Warner and New Universal are competitors, taking Don out of the "Person of the Year" selection will not make Time Warner make more money.
On the contrary, it will interfere with press freedom, causing disagreements between Time Group, Time Magazine, and the top management of the headquarters.
couldn't think for a while, so Don waved his hand, "You call Time Magazine directly and ask clearly." Sienna, come here, get down on your knees......"
The interior of Donn's office, except for the swimming pool, is carpeted, so you won't get cold if you lie on the ground.
Ella Fisher said crisply: "Okay, you play first, I'll ask!"
After Don finished playing with satisfaction and the evil fire was vented, Ella Fisher also completed communication with Time Magazine.
Don was on one side, planning to take Anne Hathaway and Sienna Miller to the shower, so he talked to Ella Fisher as he walked.
Ella Fisher said quickly: "After I called, the president of Time magazine personally transferred my call and explained to me that it was not unintentionally aimed at us. The group's top brass is concerned about the political implications, saying that this is an election year and it is best to follow the usual selection process. ”
Don's heart jumped, and then it suddenly happened.
I see!
Time Warner wasn't targeting him.
According to Time magazine's selection criteria for "Person of the Year", the new president is usually chosen in the election year of the United States.
Unless there is a particularly important big man or event in that year, the president will be PK out.
For example, Peter Ueberroth in 1984, such as "The Concept of Endangered Earth" in 1988, such as He Dayi in 1996, such as Donn Walker in 2000.
That's right, that's the key point.
In 2000, Donn was named the "God of Stocks" and created a legend on Wall Street; his "Spider-Man" set off a wave of American heroism around the world, with a box office of $1.26 billion, and became the most popular friend of women by fighting "Barbie" and "Disney Princess" and promoting feminism......
In that year, Don made amazing achievements in the three major fields of finance, film and television, and ideology, defeating President George W. Bush in one fell swoop and becoming the man of the year.
Four years later, President George W. Bush was re-elected.
It was precisely this year that Tang En made a series of earth-shattering events!
Time Magazine has arranged for President George W. Bush to take down twice in a row, which is inevitably too ruthless.
Magazines can only respect the freedom of the press, but the executives of Times Group should look at the problem from a higher perspective.
Isn't this deliberately offending the White House?
Tang En hugged the two female stars with moist and full bodies and walked towards the bathroom, and he was already able to understand this decision of Time Warner's senior management.
However, he was not reconciled.
This year is his year!
In front of his bright moon, even the president is just a grain of light.
For?
Concession?
Go with the flow?
Many thoughts flashed through Don's mind.
To be honest, he was very tempted.
In the history of Time Magazine's "Person of the Year", the person who won the award twice was either the president of the United States or the political leaders who changed the world!
Like Stalin, like Churchill, like Deng, like Gorbachev.
No businessman has ever been elected twice!
Don wants to break the record.
This year, it's a good opportunity.
