"Two young reporters dared to come to our house, and the US federal government's control over the media has become weaker and weaker over the years. ”

Bentley back.

Guo Muzhou said to Han Xuan, who was drinking juice next to him: "I advertise for movies, and I have to find them, and the price can't go down."

Those who write film reviews also want to give gifts, and it must be bad if the money is not in place. ”

Han Xuan replied: "The federal government advocates freedom of speech and has never restrained the media.

It's not that the control is weak, but the moral bottom line of the media industry is constantly decreasing, and everything is on par with the material.

In the past, we still paid attention to the authenticity of some news, but now how to attract people and how to come, without investigation, dare to publish it in newspapers and television.

For example, last year's Michael Jackson child molestation incident, in the 80s, he also said that he bleached his skin because he hated that he was black.

The fact is that it is because of the loss of melanin. ”

It wasn't until after Michael Jackson's death that the truth about the child molestation incident was revealed.

The child said that it was because of the family's embarrassment that his father forced him to say so.

Han Xuan knew the truth, but others didn't know, and because there was no evidence, he could only feel powerless about it.

"I've heard about it.

Michael Jackson just got married to Elvis Presley's daughter, and I'm still going to the wedding, how could it be!"

Guo Muzhou pointed to the signboard of the ABC building outside the window, "If you can buy ABC, then you don't have to worry."

Our family now lacks a platform that can bypass the media and go directly to the public. ”

Han Xuan asked in surprise, "You mean that this company is going to be sold?"

ABC?"

As one of the three major commercial radio and television companies in the United States, ABC has the widest fixed viewing group in the United States, covering 96.26% of American households.

It has 225 affiliated television networks.

8 domestic TV stations, 6 of which are in the top 10 in the U.S. market.

In addition, ABC owns 80% of ESPN, the world's largest sports media outlet, and 21 radio stations.

The business includes TV program production, broadcasting and sales, newspapers, magazines, book publishing, etc.!

His grandfather sighed and said: "Recently, the government is drafting the New Telecommunications Law, which intends to completely remove the limit on the number of TV stations directly under the television network and relax the regulation of the entertainment industry in 1996.

Experts say that the economy has begun to recover in recent years, and that the companies that are the first to recover will promote a new wave of mergers and acquisitions, and for the fifth time in this century, it will be easier to have a government encourage mergers and acquisitions.

I heard that Disney is tentatively approaching the ABC board, and the purchase price is estimated to be around $20 billion. ”

"20 billion!"

Han Xuan gasped.

This is not a small amount of money anywhere, and the careful thinking that has just emerged was instantly washed away by this number.

Then it began to coalesce again, because the benefits of having a TV station are too great!

It will take more than ten years for its own Internet media empire to rise, and the gap in the middle will be subject to other media.

"Grandpa, Disney doesn't have such a large amount of cash, is it, and it's an equity exchange, plus a small amount of cash?"

"Definitely not, Disney has more cash flow than other companies, but at most it's only about $2.5 billion, and its market value is now nearly $30 billion. ”

"That's ......"

Han Xuan's mind quickly calculated the possibility of eating ABC.

Disney itself has a television network, which is now regulated by the U.S. federal Telecommunications Act and cannot acquire ABC.

If you want to complete the acquisition, you will have to wait until the new regulations come into force, that is, at least until 1996.

Today, the development trajectory of Dimen Pictures is in accordance with the path of the rise of the Disney Empire in memory.

For example, the acquisition of Pixar Animation Studios, Marvel, and Lucasfilm, which is in tentative contact and has not made progress.

If the entire development process of Disney is divided into four stages, then these acquisitions now are the acquisitions that will only be carried out in the fourth period, pushing Disney's market value to nearly $200 billion in one fell swoop!

ABC TV is an important move in the third period, developing markets for news, TV dramas, variety shows, etc.

Han Xuan has countless ideas for TV series and variety shows in his head, but there is no broadcast channel that can turn them into reality.

Said to himself: "Grandpa's side is squeezing cash flow, and if you take out a loan, you should be able to come up with about 10 billion."

I'm here...... When the stocks I bought two days ago appreciated, it was almost 1.5 billion.

With more than 700 million in securities dealers, if the Mexican financial crisis really breaks out, it should be able to earn between $1.8 and $3 billion

Starbucks' stock can't be sold, Hasbro isn't listed, HOPE Technology can't be counted on, and it's still short of money......"

Guo Muzhou saw his grandson leaning his head against the car window and muttering, he didn't understand what he was saying stupidly, shook his head funny, and took out the company's business data report from his bag to watch.

Han Xuan knocked on the glass with his head, whether he bought it himself or the old man, it was the same, anyway, it was his own family.

If the SOS Group mortgages more shares, it may withdraw funds again, but in this way, the company's capital chain will be dangerous.

Although he knows that with his current strength, the acquisition of ABC is a move to swallow an elephant, and if he is not careful, he will kill himself.

But this kind of opportunity is so rare that it causes the heart to pound and beat non-stop, and I haven't felt this kind of stimulation for a long time.

Take a deep breath, make up your mind to go home and discuss with the old man, contact ABC in advance, maybe you can find a way in the remaining year or so?

Grandpa's side...... Forget it, if you nag up, you won't be able to live the rest of the day.

Passing by the Burbank Dimen Pictures headquarters building, we came to the door of Time Warner's studio.

The doorman came to see it and let him go directly, it was still the same security guard he saw when he came over in the summer, and he waved to Han Xuan: "Hello, here you go again." ”

"Haha, is "Friends" still filming?" Han Xuan asked as he opened the car window.

"Yes, but now the actor is not here, and he may come in the evening. ”

"Well, thanks, goodbye sir"

Bentley slowed down and continued to drive on.

Guo Muzhou seemed to remember something, and said: "I plan to teach those two reporters a lesson, and I won't kill them."

You're still young, and it's not good to have a reputation for being ruthless.

How about getting CBS out there?"

"Whatever. ”

Han Xuan didn't care about it, they didn't work as reporters, and it was estimated that the good days would come to an end, and it would be too embarrassing to chase them and beat them hard.

"What if you don't give up?"

"Then don't blame us.

How do you say it often?

By the way, I can only help them get here. ”

Han Xuan smiled when he saw his grandfather playing treasure.

The studio with the words "Fast and Furious" has been set up, the small bar and the film warehouse are connected, and the actors have not yet arrived.

Got out of the car and looked around, there were several movies being filmed not far away.

An actor dressed in a World War II-era costume walks by with a mobile phone, and no matter how you look at it, you feel that the picture is not in harmony (to be continued). )
