Chapter 52: Buying MGM?
At an altitude of 10,000 meters, Chi Mingzhe's mood was really happy! These two named Ellie and Rowling were named respectively...... Belch!...... The flight attendant is communicating with him very pleasantly, the figure of European and American women is really incomparable to Asian women, the breasts and buttocks are really smooth and full, and in order to please Chi Mingzhe, he has made a lot of difficult movements.
"These are the real eighteen postures......"
With extreme satisfaction and affirmation of the professionalism of the two flight attendants, Chi Mingzhe wrote a check for $200,000.
"Baby, this trip has been accompanied by you, so that my body and mind have been greatly relaxed! I think this has a good effect on my next work state, take it! This is my gratitude to you!"
"Oh...... Thank you, my generous William...... Horn ......"
"And me...... Horn ......"
Ji Mingzhe stood at the door of the cabin and said goodbye to the two flight attendants, pinched their mesmerizing buttocks, and then stepped down the gangway energetically amid their coquettish laughter.
"It's good to be rich!" Aili looked at Ji Mingzhe's back in a daze.
"Don't be in a daze, I'll go to the bank and cash the check, oh...... My beloved LV, Gucc, I'm here!" Rowling dragged Ellie and began to clean up the cabin.
"William!
"Oh, Perry, you don't have to come to pick me up, just send someone. â
Looking at Perry, who was waiting in the airport hall, Ji Mingzhe held his right hand.
"It's nothing, William, I just have something to report to you. â
"Okay! Let's talk as we go!"
Chi Mingzhe didn't bring any luggage when he returned to the United States this time, after all, he still has a home in Malibu Beach, of course, he just lacks a hostess. Once in the car, they drove towards the company.
"Say it, man, what's the matter?" Ji Mingzhe opened the window and teased a cigarette.
"William, you're young, don't smoke so much. Ji Mingzhe was noncommittal.
"Okay! Do you know MGM?"
Chi Mingzhe looked at Perry in surprise, how could MGM not know that this was a once glorious film company, founded on April 24, 1924, this company shot one of the best films in the history of cinema - "Gone with the Wind", as well as the enduring screen classic - 007, and also created the immortal cartoon character - cat and mouse. And the company's lion logo was once considered a symbol of the United States, and its star-studded superstars created the myth of ZĂ o releasing a movie a week. MGM also initiated the founding of the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences and launched the Academy Awards, the Oscars.
Unfortunately, due to successive losses, in 1970, MGM was bought by the American gambling tycoon Kirk Kercorion, who was the gambling king of Las Vegas, and he was keen on the casino and hotel industry, so MGM became more and more distant from the film industry. Since then, Kercorion has resold MGM twice and bought it back twice, leaving MGM suffering and MGM being completely broken.
Thinking of this, Chi Mingzhe seemed to think of something, and his heart trembled a little, he remembered that in 2002, MGM spent a huge amount of money to shoot the war blockbuster "Wind Whisperer" was a box office fiasco, resulting in the company's senior management being forced to resign, and MGM entered the ranks of being auctioned again as in history. In 2001 this year, MGM will rely on the performance of "Hannibal" and "Legally Blonde" to get more than 400 million box office revenue, but then the other films it launched are not profitable, so MGM put the treasure on "Wind Whisperer".
"Perry, what do you want to say?" asked Ji Mingzhe uncertainly.
"Before I came to your company, I worked for a lot of companies in Hollywood, you know. â
"Uh-huh, please continue!"
Perry held the steering wheel, his eyes fixed on the front, but his expression seemed to recall something.
"I've been at MGM the longest time, but I said that my youth was dedicated to it. But now it's going to collapse completely, and the other day I met my partner at MGM, and he told me that I'm now so happy that I'm completely crippled by that damn gambler. In 2000, they invested more than $100 million to shoot "Windwhisperer" in the hope of making a last-ditch effort, but many people were not optimistic about ......"
Perry abruptly stopped talking and pulled over to the side of the road.
"William, I want to ask you, what if...... I mean, if MGM goes bankrupt, do you have the ability to buy it?"
"You mean...... Buying MGM? That's MGM......" Chi Mingzhe sighed.
"I'm sorry! I know it takes a lot of money to buy MGM, it's too hard for a strong man, William!
"Let's go back to the office first! I'm thinking about it. â
Back in the company's office, Chi Mingzhe has been pondering, he still has 10 billion US dollars in cash on hand, which is intended to be used to speculate on "911", this opportunity he will not miss no matter what, you must know that "911" has more than 200 billion US dollars in various losses in the United States alone, and the global losses have reached more than 1 trillion US dollars......
Chi Mingzhe is a little entangled, he remembers that in 2005, Sony acquired Michael Plum for 4.8 billion US dollars, and now the acquisition is estimated to be at least more than 3.5 billion US dollars, and this is only the purchase price, it still has a lot of debts to repay, and it has to continue to invest funds to maintain, which is also a lot of money, but once the acquisition of MGM benefits are also huge, not to mention the reputation, just its film library and the copyright income of the film are considerable, and the relationship with the Oscars is needless to say.
Tapping his fingers on the table, he looked out the window in a daze, "Money!" "Money!" Niu B wrote a check for $20 to the two flight attendants in front of him, and he didn't care about it, and now Chi Mingzhe felt that his money was not enough. Turned on the computer and searched randomly, first looked at the YouTube website, his own song "low" reached more than 20 million hits, quite popular, this time he came to the United States Chi Mingzhe by the way to release this song single, and then browsed a lot of websites, he was hastily watched and closed, until ......
"Top 10 Treasures ...... the World"
"What if I could get to where these treasures are......? Treasure?"
Ji Mingzhe stared at the computer screen for five minutes before suddenly standing up.
"God help me, how did I forget this!"
He immediately searched the map of Chile in South America, and then looked at the location of the Juan Fernandez Islands and laughed, about 05 years a treasure company found more than 10 billion dollars of treasure planted by pirates on Robinson Crusoe Island in the Juan Fernandez Islands, but because there was no agreement with the Chilean government on the ownership of the treasure, it caused a lot of trouble. In the end, they didn't reveal the exact location of the treasure until the end, but they all knew that it was on Robinson Crusoe Island. In 1774, the famous British pirate George Anson buried more than $10 billion worth of treasure from Spanish merchants, which is also the largest batch of pirate treasure in history.
"Brother Zai Yong! It's me, Mingzhe! Seoul's operation is suspended, I have a new task for you......" Hanging up the phone, Ji Mingzhe stopped thinking about MGM's problem, he walked out of the office with a relaxed song.
When he came to Theskydisc, Chi Mingzhe directly found the company's general manager Dylan, and then took out a master disc for him and asked him to release it immediately. Then I went to see nine more young men studying here. also chatted with Park Zhenying for more than an hour, his English album is priced at $39 and has sold 11.6 million copies worldwide, which has brought his fame to a higher level, and by the way, it has brought a lot of profits to the company, and he himself has also earned more than $15 million there, Ji Mingzhe gave him a whole amount of $20 million with a stroke of his pen, and Park Jinying couldn't close his mouth with a smile.
Chi Mingzhe's generosity is obvious to all, he invited people from the company to have a meal together in the evening, and laughed with Ga Ga and Avril for a long time, and now Avril is also preparing an album, and she is very happy to leave two lip prints on Chi Mingzhe's face when she talks about the album.
Back in Malibu Beach, I called Katie, who was filming a commercial in the Eastern Territories and wouldn't be back to Los Angeles until a week, and walked around the mansion in her pajamas after taking a shower and feeling too lonely. So I went back to the bedroom and called Jun Ji-hyun, Kim Tae-hee, and Lee Hyo-ri in South Korea, telling them that they had arrived in the United States, but they were busy with things so they were only calling now, and then Yoona, so-yeon, and Mi-young all made safe calls, and he dialed the phone again.
"Oba, are you in the U.S.?" Taeyeon was resting alone in her dorm room when she caught a cold.
"What's wrong with you? Weird sound?"
"I've got a cold......! It's so uncomfortable!" Taeyeon pleaded to Ji Myung-cheol.
"Hey...... Heart...... How can I be so careless?" Chi Mingzhe asked with some distress.
"Huh...... Good meat...... It's okay! it's much better to get a good night's sleep, don't worry, Oba!" Kim Taeyeon's heart was sweet, and Ji Myung-cheol's words made her very happy.
"Oba ......"
"Hmm!"
"Oba ......"
"What's wrong with you, baby?"
"Not much......! It is...... I miss you!" Taeyeon was a little shy when she said this, and she covered half of her cheek with her hand and felt hot. Thinking of Chi Mingzhe's usual love for her, I felt that something called love overflowed my heart.
"Oba misses you too! Take care of yourself, you know?"
"Uh-huh......"
"Oba is waiting for you to come back...... I want to hear you sing to me...... Still...... Still...... Oba holds people in his arms and sings, okay!" Taeyeon's coquettish words made Ji Mingzhe feel a little crispy.
"Good...... My Taeyeon can sing whatever Oba wants, huh!"
"Uh-huh......"
Hearing Ji Mingzhe's words "My Taeyeon" made her feel that it could make her body weak more than calling her heart and liver, baby or something.
"Rest well!
"Got it! Oba ...... Love you!" Kim Taeyeon hurriedly hung up the phone after speaking, and then covered her head with the quilt and rolled on the bed.
Ji Mingzhe looked at the phone in his hand and smiled, his heart warm.
"Suzu ......"
The phone rang again, but he was a little complicated looking at the number.
