This is Li Qingyuan's second time in Tokyo, and the last time he came, he set off a "firework" for Xu Zi, and two years have passed since he counted.

The last time Zhou Xingchi saw Li Qingyuan was more than a year ago, at that time, Helium Star Film and Television Company had only opened for a short time, and Li Qingyuan's reputation was not obvious, but now more than a year later, he found out that Li Qingyuan was a hidden Chinese super rich, and he naturally lowered his figure.

Not long ago, when he returned to Xiangjiang, he heard rumors in the rivers and lakes that the Xiang Gangster and his family, who had called him like a grandson, had all been killed, and the biggest suspect was Li Qingyuan, although this was just a rumor in the rivers and lakes, it also made him frightened, so he had to be careful.

successfully picked up Ling Yanran and Zhou Xingchi, Ling Yanran pestered him and muttered about the movie, it has been more than a year since she finished filming "Kung Fu", and if she doesn't find some movies to shoot acting skills, it will be wasted.

Li Qingyuan really has a headache, there are no good resources in the current domestic market, and the heroine's big IP movies are simply rare.

can only pin your hopes on Hollywood, but it is not easy to take advantage of Lao Mei, just with the international situation of Lao Mei beating the world, it is estimated that it is difficult to bite a piece of meat on it, but no matter how powerful the giant is, there should be no problem in being a little mosquito and sucking two mouthfuls of blood.

In Li Qingyuan's memory, there is an entertainment company in Hollywood that has just stepped into 05 years and is in dire straits, which is the giant entertainment company "Disney" that will dominate the entertainment industry in the future.

Since 2000, Disney's market capitalization has been 30 percent lower than the media stock index, first because of the threat of DreamWorks cartoons, a formidable rival, and secondly, after the acquisition of ABC in 1996, Disney not only failed to make a profit, but also lost tens of millions of dollars a year. After the "911" incident, the "Disney" park visitors dropped sharply, which made it unable to make ends meet, and the current CEO Eisner was autocratic, and important decisions directly bypassed the board process, making Disney infighting, all of which provided favorable conditions for Li Qingyuan to fish in troubled waters.

In addition to "Disney", there is another company that he covets, that is, the "Marvel" comic book company that will dominate the screen with a series of superheroes in the future. Since the early nineties of the last century, "Marvel", which was in debt due to the poor management of capital player Perelman, began to sell its character adaptation rights, and a large number of Marvel characters such as Fantastic Four, Men's Police, Iron Man, Hulk and other copyrights have been sold.

After selling so many sons and daughters, Perelman was not satisfied, and he planned to buy the remaining shares of Toybiz toys and merge it with Marvel to create a more powerful combination, an idea that was strongly resisted by "Marvel" shareholders.

As a result, Perelman came up with a "trick" to file for bankruptcy, so that he could reorganize "Marvel" without the consent of shareholders.

The contradictions within "Marvel" were completely intensified, and the shareholders took Perelman to court.

However, this "infighting" produced a shocking result: after a court trial, Toybiz Toys and "Marvel" finally successfully merged, but Perelman, the initiator, was kicked out of "Marvel", and the former Toybiz Toys executive Avi Arad became the head of "Marvel".

This old man in his fifties really loves "Marvel" from the bottom of his heart, and in order to get it on the big screen, Avi ran around Hollywood, trying to explain the movie value of the "Marvel" IP to film company executives but ran into walls everywhere.

A large number of "Marvel" characters have been sold, leased, and adapted, and the property rights are extremely complex, and Wall Street analysts believe that "Marvel" has no other way out than bankruptcy

Of course, it is biased, but it really works, and all those who are watching are discouraged.

These are all things of the past, and there is no need to mention them.

If the timeline is pushed back a little further, David Messer, the chief operating officer of "Marvel", will use ten comic book characters, Captain America, Thor, etc. as collateral to loan $525 million to "Merrill Lynch" as start-up capital, which can be regarded as gambling on his life to shoot the first work "Iron Man" after transforming into an independent producer.

Li Qingyuan knows very well that the later "Iron Man" movie won 580 million US dollars at the box office and opened the cosmic dream of the "Marvel" company, he doesn't want to do the stupid thing of "Marvel" to buy it again after it gets back on its feet, and the "Disney" that took a breath in 09 is after the outbreak of "Iron Man", and used 4.2 billion US dollars to acquire "Marvel" after the achievement of entertainment hegemony.

The current "Marvel" is a piece of stinky and hard carrion, and no one is interested in it, which has become the best entry point for Li Qingyuan, spending a small amount of money to do big things.

These two companies definitely make Li Qingyuan salivate, and now the market value of "Marvel" does not exceed one billion dollars at most, and it is relatively easy to become its owner, which is his key goal. But the market value of "Disney", a camel that is about to lose weight, is as high as more than 40 billion US dollars, and to acquire it Li Qingyuan will definitely have to break his muscles and bones and spend a huge price, it seems that without the support of Morgan's money bag, it will not work, and it is imperative to take a trip to the United States!

If you want to go to the United States, the prerequisite for everything to return to the development of things is whether Ling Yanran can accept the superhero who plays American comics, or whether she is willing to become an American hero in Western culture.

He told Ling Yanran about this plan one by one, the latter's willow eyebrows were upside down, his distant and clear eyes were slightly closed, and his thoughts were spinning: "It doesn't matter what kind of heroine you are or what kind of movie you make, what I'm worried about is that you are getting close to the people in the United States, will there be any opinions in China?"

"Haha!" Li Qingyuan laughed and combed her raised eyebrows, and replied: "Where do you want to go, I'm just a businessman, not a politician, if I can buy Lao Mei's company, it's too late for those people in China to be happy, how can there be opinions." I'm afraid now that the warmongers of the old United States can't buy American companies if they don't let go. ”

"Isn't it easy for a little uncle to buy an old American company, and there are still few companies acquired by investment companies!" Ling Yanran said disapprovingly.

Li Qingyuan took Ling Yanran's soft pancreas and walked to the porch, looked at the misty drizzle wafting in the sky, took a deep breath and said: "It's okay to say that other companies are good to say, involving news media, mass entertainment, and other companies that guide people's ideology, but it's hard to say, you see that even Murdoch, a pure Westerner, needs to join the United States to achieve a media empire, not to mention that we are Chinese." ”

"Then you don't come forward, let the little uncle go out of the horse, and turn the corner!"

"It's too early to say this, wait for me to go to the United States and talk to Morgan in detail ☆ If you're okay, find some 'Marvel' comics first, find a female character you like, and if you can buy it, I'll let you make a blockbuster." ”

Ling Yanran took his waist and leaned into his arms, and said affectionately: "Although I want to make a movie, you don't need to spend such a big price, go all the way to the United States to pave the way for me≡ from the moment I knew the existence of Yanxing, I knew that my dream of stardom would definitely not last long." ”

Li Qingyuan clasped his hands around the delicate body in his arms, kissed her forehead and said: "If you like me, I will support it, it has nothing to do with what I want to do, the development and growth of Helium Star Group is our capital and not an obstacle, you don't need to scruple, no one in this world can do anything to us." ”

"Hehe-hee!" Ling Yanran got his promise

Jumping out of his arms with a smile, he raised the mobile phone in his hand and said, "I recorded all your words, and what the manly husband said must be done!"

"Okay, you dare to trick me, see if I don't correct you on the spot!" Li Qingyuan chased her and rushed into the villa, and after a while, a different kind of shouting sounded in the villa, which made people red-faced.

The next day, Li Qingyuan took a flight from Huaxia Airlines to the United States, and the private jet was handed over to Ling Yanran for use, due to the excellent box office performance after the release of "Kung Fu", Zhou Xingchi was ready to go to Southeast Asian countries where the movie had not yet been released while the iron was hot, and Ling Yanran, who had missed a lot of publicity in the early stage, was embarrassed to refuse his invitation.

In Los Angeles, Li Qingyuan came to New York, where Helium Star Investment Company happened to be the headquarters of his first target, "Marvel" Comics Company.

When he came to Morgan's house again, Morgan's suite was much larger than last time, and he bought the upper and lower floors of the suite, connected them and changed them into duplex suites.

In the spacious and bright living room, Xiao Yiyi sat in the walker and waved her little arms to rush towards him, with a charming smile on her little face.

Li Qingyuan picked her out of the walker and held her high in the air, making the little guy "giggle".

After playing with the little guy for a while, Li Qingyuan handed her to Li Yunyang, who was watching the excitement on the side, but this little guy was addicted to playing, holding his neck and refusing to let go, so he had to hold it.

As Morgan entered the study, Li Qingyuan teased Xiao Yiyi, and asked without raising his head, "Morgan, can you help me remove the name from the investment company?"

"Why? Did something happen?" Morgan wondered.

"Helium Star Group will have a series of big moves in the future, which will have a huge impact on many companies in Europe and the United States, in order to avoid implicating investment companies, it is best to remove my name from the investment companies. Li Qingyuan explained.

Morgan didn't know anything about the business of the Helium Star Group, and in his subconscious, he never thought that any company could surpass the technology of the United States and a group of younger brothers, and if there were, he was waiting to be defeated or acquired by the American company. Now that Li Qingyuan suddenly said such a thing, then he had to face it squarely and asked, "Which aspect?"

"At present, it is temporarily concentrated in the semiconductor industry, electronic chips and electronic communications. Li Qingyuan put Xiao Yiyi on the floor, stretched out his hands to tease her to walk, and said lightly.

Morgan pinched his nose, this is difficult, the United States can't allow others to take a bite of the big cake of electronic chips, "That will be directly against 'Intel' and 'Motorola', they will definitely not give up if they don't knock you down." ”

"It's not so easy for them to bring me down, I just don't want to hurt the pond fish and make you bad in here. ”

"Semiconductor chip technology is accumulated from generation to generation, I don't know if your technology is reliable, you don't want to cause a fuss about nothing. Judging from the current situation, most of your net worth is invested in companies, is there any need to do such a thankless job?"

"Isn't this because you Americans are making trouble? If you don't engage in a technological blockade, won't there be nothing? Now that Huaxia can't get advanced chips, of course, it can only do its own research, and of course market conflicts are inevitable. ”

"Do you have so much confidence that you can break the monopoly of the European and American markets?"

"You'll see the day soon, so get ready early and save yourself the hassle. ”

"If it's just for this, you just need to give me a call, you don't need to come to the United States at all, and there are other things to talk about at all!"
