Chapter 1179: The Last Piece of the Puzzle and Walking on Thin Ice
This summer in the capital is like a child's face, changing without warning. Before, the sky was still clear, the blue sky was like washing, the sky was high and the clouds were light, and the sun was like fire, but just a few hours later, the sky was low and dark, and the clouds were dense.
In the study, Andy was holding his mobile phone, humming a little perfunctorily, looking at the rain outside the window, hazy, trees, and wings seemed to be shrouded in light smoke, and the raindrops hit the glass windows, and the horns sounded, splashing water splashes.
Click-
Tori, who was holding coffee, wearing a white small round neck chiffon loose shirt and a black tube skirt, walked in, Andy stretched out his hand and signaled, Tori's color changed slightly, but he still obediently closed the door, walked to Andy's side and put down the coffee, and sat in the arms of the big devil.
“。。。 Miles, the traditional method of ratings statistics doesn't mean anything, "Gossip Girl" has tens of millions of fans around the world. ”
Andy changed his mobile phone to his left hand, and his right hand turned into the claw of Lushan and began to feel the wonderful feeling of the pressure of the wind outside the window of the car at a speed of 60 kilometers per hour, while the little assistant stared at the door with a nervous expression, and the red glow on his pretty face was unusually gorgeous.
"Hehe, everyone hopes that this youth idol drama can be applauded and popular, and besides, the ratings you think are not ideal, then it also depends on the comparison with that TV series, isn't it... ”
"Greed is insufficient. Andy hung up the phone a little impatiently, and said with a sneer on the corner of his mouth, for C TV stations, there is no use value, and he naturally will not be willing to waste time on them.
For the American drama "Gossip Girl", the two heroines have become popular and have tens of millions of fans, but the ratings are not satisfactory, C TV is quite unwilling, no, in the warm-up period of the second season, C TV is bloody this time, and I hope that Andy can also help promote it on his Facebook and photo wall.
It's a bit ridiculous, not to mention that the purpose of making Blake Cleverly and Leighton Mester popular has been achieved, even if they are not popular, it is impossible for Andy to help other TV stations promote it, and his own American dramas under AMC TV station do not have this kind of treatment, and the CEO of C is also thinking about it.
"Old, boss, this is the financial situation of the second quarter that has just been reported... The assistant picked up the mobile phone that had just gotten the email prompt with a slight red face, opened it and looked at it, and handed it to Andy.
"Oh~" Andy took his phone and looked at the email, because there are two box office blockbusters "Iron Man" and the summer file "The Incredible Hulk", which ranked second in the global box office in the first half of 2008, even if the box office of "The Incredible Hulk" is a little unsatisfactory, however, Marvel's net income in the second quarter of this year still increased by 60%, and led to the growth of the company's other businesses and the increase in the expected revenue for the whole year.
A faint smile appeared at the corner of his mouth, the Marvel Group has completely reversed the decline, and then as long as he shoots it step by step, he can lie down and make money with peace of mind without any care.
Marvel's broad road has been paved, and it's time to put in the last piece of the puzzle for your entertainment and media empire.
Andy patted Tori, who was already winning, and teased: "You little sao, you've been hungry these days, haven't you?" But even if you're hungry, you have to endure it first, okay, let's go out first." ”
Tori's eyes were a little resentful, but also a little helpless, since the bad queen came, there was still her chance, left Andy's arms, stood aside and neatly sorted out his BRA, walked to the dressing mirror and patted his rosy cheeks, took a few deep breaths, stroked the hair on both sides of his cheeks, and then opened the door and walked out after confirming that it was okay.
Andy just shook his head and smiled, picked up his mobile phone and sent a text message, waited silently for a while, and soon had a text message reply, after reading it, he shook the mouse a few times, and clicked on the avatar of Alvitatre on MSN.
"Good morning boss. ”
"Al, didn't disturb your rest, did you?" Andy chuckled and looked at Alvitatl in the video and asked.
"No, I'm just checking the materials re-reported by the two rooms, boss, what do you command?"
"Hmm. Andy looked at Al, and the smile on his face became brighter and brighter, you must know that he stuffed Alvitatre, the chief think tank, into the rescue team of the Ministry of Finance, in addition to hoping to get first-hand information, the most important thing is to have the idea of training Al.
You must know that the Smith family is a political family, and the person who will be pushed up to replace the old Smith in the future is undoubtedly his cheap father, and as his cheap son, whether Alston wants to continue the political tradition of the Smith family in the future and stay behind the scenes, or hope to go further to the forefront, it requires a lot of resource support and talent reserves.
Political resources, the Smith family is not lacking, but financial talents are the shortcomings of the Smith family, and Alvitatre is one of Andy's favorites and values, what other good opportunity to personally participate in the government's decision-making level in this financial turmoil can exercise him?
Wall Street's infiltration of Washington can be said to be almost all aspects, and the position of US Treasury Secretary has almost become the exclusive throne of Goldman Sachs, and even Warren Buffett, the current senior economic adviser of the Black Bull, is supported by Goldman Sachs, and it is conceivable that the next candidate to take over as Treasury Secretary still cannot jump out of this category.
If Goldman Sachs can penetrate to this extent, then he Andy Smith's Gaia can do the same.
"Al, let someone sort out the information of AMC Cinemas in the United States, I am ready to acquire it, complete the last piece of the puzzle of my media and entertainment, and by the way, complete the group integration and integration of entertainment media, and the people in the think tank can also start to prepare, I don't want to waste too much time. ”
Andy looked at Al in the video and said his purpose, the stampede and chaos brought about by this financial turmoil can allow him to save a lot of money in the continuous annexation, which is definitely a once-in-a-century opportunity.
Even in the continuous annexation, mergers and acquisitions will make his liabilities skyrocket, but it is undoubtedly worth it, now many companies and assets in the United States are undervalued, as long as he survives the financial crisis, then, his total assets will also skyrocket, what are those liabilities, as for losses, tsk, even if you make money, you have to make a loss, otherwise how much tax you have to pay。。。。。。
Alvitatre was not much surprised when he heard the purpose of the big boss, which was also expected by him, and also in the expectation of many well-intentioned people, after all, Andy Smith's idea of wanting to build an entertainment media empire is not a secret, just look at his entertainment industry and media industry layout.
Originally, many people thought that Andy was holding back his big move, ready to complete the feat of swallowing the elephant in one go, and attack the three major public television networks, but he didn't expect that he could come out with a cable network, and after several rounds of hype and operation, AMC TV actually caught up behind, catching up with the merged C TV network, and there was a big situation to compete with FOX.
It is impossible to say that there is no covetousness for the three major broadcasters, the problem is that CBS, ABC, and NBC are not assets that he can swallow without breaking his muscles and bones, and may even shake his already not very solid foundation, he doesn't think that no one is eyeing him this piece of fat, he can even think that in the shadows, I don't know how many pairs of eyes are staring at him, waiting for him to make a mistake, and then jump out and tear him apart, divide and annex him.
Before completing the initial accumulation and laying a solid foundation, Andy will not expand wildly, stability is what he has always needed to insist on, so although his assets have a lot of liabilities, he has enough cash in his hands, enough to pay off most of the debts, so that he doesn't have to worry about breaking the capital chain and smelling a trace of blood by the sharks around him.
