Chapter 544: Glorious Moments
MM can successfully counterattack, mainly because Pingguo Company has risen for five consecutive months this year.
Apple's stock price rose 8% in April, with a market value of more than $150 billion, which also made Apple replace Google in market capitalization and jump to fifth, and the iPhone is still hot, but the iPhone is obviously not all of Pingguo, and the iPhone, which has been on the market for more than 1 year, still accounts for only a fraction of Pingguo's revenue.
In the fiscal quarter of April ~ May this year, Pingguo sold nearly 2.5 million computers, iPod sales exceeded 11 million, and the annual target of iPhone was 10 million, and MM held 10% of Pingguo's shares, and the market value was 15 billion yuan.
MM is under the strong leadership of Mark to inject capital, at that time the media generally believed that this is MM to win over Pixar's partner, Mark one of the most failed transactions and investments, but at the beginning of 2007, the first generation of Pingguo mobile phone all the way to the year, no one dared to say that this is a failed investment, by the end of the year, the market value exceeded 100 billion, in May this year it exceeded 150 billion, becoming the fifth largest company in market capitalization, the entire Wall Street elite are amazed by Mark's investment vision, saying that this is enough to be included in the history of the five most successful investment cases.
One billion shares will become 15 billion in two and a half years.
The other is Viacom's Blockbuster filed for bankruptcy protection, and Nefi became an industry giant, which was vigorously sought after by investors, and the stock price rose 20% to exceed 12 billion.
Now Wall Street is saying that MM is the most dynamic and wealthy company, and there will be no money to buy TVB, which has a market value of less than two billion US dollars, which is also one of the reasons why Mark dares to throw silver bullets and is arrogant, others always say that he is very powerful, and he himself can't help but say to himself, I am very powerful.
Now technology is rising, not only Microsoft surpasses China Mobile and regains the first place in market capitalization, but the market value of Brother Gu has also risen sharply, only missing 2 billion to exceed 150 billion, the Wang family fund has 20% of Google's equity, is the second largest shareholder after Larry, this part of the market value is more than 14 billion, plus their family's 28% of the MM equity, Twitter, Amazon's equity, the family fund has more than 45 billion assets.
is not much different from Gates, the richest man in the world, except that Gates's money is all in his name, while Mark is a family fund, David, Sophia, Donald, Kayla, Giselle, Martin has a share, and the property is not so amazing after being divided into seven shares, as for the proportion of their property distribution, it is the secret of their foundation, they are not a listed company, and there is no need to disclose information to the public, but the outside world believes that Mark must account for a large share, and there should be about 30 percent, and so on, Mark's personal assets are about 12 to 3 billion, and he is not under the tycoons such as Mei Duo and Lei Shidong, so he is naturally full of confidence.
After the Internet technology bubble in 2003, a large number of floating capital had nowhere to go, so they flocked to the relatively stable real estate market, which made the housing prices of the United States go all the way up, and destroyed the monster of the subprime mortgage business, the market capacity of about 50 billion yuan, it was fried into five trillion, the bubble is amazing, so many are appalling, the collapse is a matter of time, after the collapse of housing prices, the mess can only be paid by the government and investors.
This large number of funds withdrawn from the real estate market, according to the profit-seeking nature, swam to the gradually warming Internet technology market, which makes the shares of those high-quality Internet technology companies rise all the way, Microsoft, Cisco, Oracle, IBM, Pingguo are all beneficiaries, and the stock price of Netefei has risen all the way to the edge of technology, and Mark has entered the era of making money lying down.
In the face of the doubts of these members of the Legislative Council, Mark was dismissive, because he knew that this product was intended to be disgusting, Mark could invest 1.5 billion US dollars in the non-profit Heung Kong International Rescue Center, and would he not be able to use the money to buy a profitable TVB?
So Mark decided to solve the matter in a rough and simple way, strength is the most important thing, and he ran all the way
In the past, he had face at the central and high-level levels, so there was no need to give face to these people, he was a media tycoon, and it was not easy to take him as a politician?
Mark went to the Legislative Council to speak, just to make a statement, the specific lobbying work, will be in charge of the professional team, this is basically a scene, in the political ecology of the relatively transparent and strict Hong Kong Legislative Council, everything has rules, members to get power is not much, the power of public opinion supervision is also great, if they dare to make ghosts, the media will also return color.
This TVB has been run by the Shaw family for more than 40 years, its development has reached the limit, backed by the relatively weak government of the Hong Kong government, its radiation scope and strength have always been limited, in Nanyue Province, it only has the right to land satellites in nine urban areas, such a big piece of fat in the mainland, they can only look at the meat and sigh, if you don't take advantage of the fact that there are still some advantages now, get the right to land on the satellite, sooner or later it will be marginalized and judged as a local station.
But MM's confidence is different, they are qualified to ask for the star, Mark and his team dare to promise Shao Yifu that they will be able to win the right to go to the mainland on the star, and the TVB satellite channel can be released in the mainland, which is equivalent to expanding their market N times at once, in the Southeast Asian market, with the support of the powerful and domineering Midi, they can also take a share of these markets.
When Shao Yifu and Mark attended the business party of the consulate of the United States, Mr. Mark Berger, who has always been arrogant, looked at Mark with watery eyes, and vigorously offered courtesy and flattery, as for the consul's wife, I don't know if she thought it was a prostitute soliciting customers, Shao Yifu deeply understood that Mark's status in the United States, these magnates are vying to please them, and it is self-evident that a media tycoon is of great help to politicians.
MM supports ***, from a little-known senator, to a big hit against the president, many people want to hug MM's thick legs? So Shao Yifu is very relieved that TVB handed over to Mark, and they Shaw Brothers still have 8% of the shares, which can also ensure their interests.
As for the new possible battle between wireless and ATV, Mark did not put forward any countermeasures, but said publicly: "What is there to fight between a TV network and a local station?"
Mark is his confidence, in Hollywood they can all compete for world dominance, will they miss here? Even if they miss, the failure of the local area, for the whole, it does not hurt the overall situation, and now MM is ambitiously building its own global television network, and they have ordered five artificial satellites from NASA in one go to send and relay their TV signals.
Anyone who knows a little about the situation knows that the disparity in strength between the two sides is not of the same grade, and there is no such thing as two tigers competing with each other.
And Chen Guoqiang calmed down, and also found this problem, on film and television resources, they are not opponents at all, there are only a few who are qualified to be opponents in the world, even if they can crush wireless, it is not enough to cause harm to MM, they have a TV network covering North Mi, and they are expanding the global TV network, and they also have a fight in Xiangjiang, in other places, they are ruthless rolling, ruthless slaughter.
Thinking of this, they are dead in this heart, no longer doing the work with MM, but concentrating on doing a good job in ATV, developing step by step, preparing to build this ATV into Asia's CNN, as for the anger between them and Mark, this is not a matter at all, they are all businessmen, pragmatic, this big boss is angry with the small boss, this is a matter of course, Mark has strength if he has money, and he will be respected if he has strength.
So after the Mark Legislative Council showed off its muscles, the Shell King and others immediately retreated, no longer high-profile against wireless, and unlike the previous old-timers, who held a few small amounts of money, every time they opened, they poached people from wireless in a big way, and finally they were defeated.
Since MM announced the acquisition news, their poaching operation is quite difficult, who doesn't want to take the big ship of MM, and the number of their self-made dramas will be expanded, several masters and Hua Dan have contracts, and some of them will be invited to Hollywood, participate in the filming of MM's ace series, and will also participate in the cameo of the super blockbuster that is being filmed, which is a great opportunity to go to the world.
Like Liang Jiahui, who took the line of Mark, shined in "The Hangover", received a salary of five million US dollars in the filming of "The Hangover 2", and is scheduled to participate in the filming of several blockbusters, and mixes quite well in Hollywood.
In the past, only those top celebrities could go to Hollywood, like Fang Long, Fa Ge, Li connects these bigwigs to go to Hollywood, and there is a place, but Hollywood is the most realistic and ruthless place, there is no box office to stand, this strikeout is the same for everyone, they have been beautiful, but they are all because of the incomparably sustainable, retreated back, mixed in this place, the backstage is equally important, although this Liang Jiahui has not been as popular as these big guys, but it has always been stable and rising, backed by the big tree of the Mark Gang, he has never lacked film contracts, with an annual income of nearly 10 million, converted into Hong Kong dollars, that is, nearly 100 million, very beautiful, even several big brothers envy his resources and backstage。
However, Mark is still the same now, quite short-guarded, not the one he admires or the Mark Gang, it is difficult to enter his eyes at all, he has always given priority to his own people, and good roles are always internal priority, his style has made him protest many times by the Actors Association, thinking that he is unfair competition, did not hold a public audition, and is unfair to other actors, but Mark laughed it off and still went his own way.
In the selection of actors for the new film, he gave 20 places to TVB-born actors in one go, and several of them are resident figures of popular dramas, which is undoubtedly an opportunity to go to the world, in this case, ATV's poaching will not have a little chance, everyone knows that TVB will take off on the aircraft carrier MM, and the stupid will leave.
With David Lee, Robert Downey Jr., Heath Ledger, Scarlett, Eva Green, Fat Zack, Handsome Zach Jr., Blake, Robert Pattinson, Kristen Stewart, Mason, Megan Fox and other Mark Gang descendants have become popular all over the world, MM has shown its strong star-making ability, and more and more actors want to join this group and become a part of it.
In 1967, the strategically minded Shao Yifu shifted his focus to the then nascent television industry, and the Hong Kong TVB Television Broadcasting Company, a media giant that was about to influence generations of Chinese, came into being.
In 1972, the wireless artist training class in line with the concept of the "Shaw Brothers" star system was established, perhaps Sir Shao himself could not have imagined that this star training base that was originally produced and used by himself would have supported Xiangjiang in the future, or half of the entire Chinese entertainment industry, it is hard to imagine that if there were no wireless artist training courses, there would not be this shining galaxy, and without these outstanding filmmakers, how would Xiangjiang films and even Chinese films be overshadowed, called " The Whampoa Military Academy of Xiangjiang stars is not an exaggeration, but Xiangjiang people prefer to call it Star Shaolin Temple, which is actually similar to the nature of the Mark Gang, except that it is more specialized, with professional teachers for guidance and training, and it is true that many stars have come out, and it is the last word that can cultivate star celebrities.
Zhou Renfa, Du Qifeng, Guan Jinpeng, Liang Jiahui, Zhou Xingxing, Andy Lau, Liming, Guo Vicecheng, Liang Chaowei, etc. are all from here, this is the weapon of wireless longevity, and ATV relies on silver bullets to poach people, which has never been long.
However, in recent years, the film and television market has become worse and worse, and this wireless artist training class is also a non-one-term training course, which has almost reached the point of stopping, taking advantage of this MM strong entry, Shao Yifu hopes to continue to engage in this training course, according to the agreement, he will serve as the chairman of the listed company until 2012, and he will retire smoothly after completing this term, but such a big thing is inseparable from Mark's support, but Mark is not optimistic and directly refused.
