Wang Jie arrived in New York in mid-August, and he spent a whole month and a half hiding in an apartment building in Manhattan, before he had transferred about 120 million US dollars, and asked Jim Sr. to hire 15 traders to start opening positions on September 10. Wang Jie is ready to make a big profit on oil futures.

On September 22, 1980, the Iran-Iraq war broke out, and the price of oil in North America also rose, Wang Jie did not dare to bet much, but used ten times the leverage, stirring up the wind and rain on oil futures for a week and immediately withdrew, because Wang Jie knew that it would not be long before OPEC released the news of increasing oil production.

This time, after deducting commissions and principal, Wang Jie earned a total of more than 900 million US dollars, which happened to prepare sufficient cash for Wang Jie's next moves.

On November 19, 1980, "Heaven's Gate" was officially released, and Wang Jie also came to Los Angeles at this time. With the screening of "Heaven's Gate", Luen Mei Company also officially started its bankruptcy journey.

Luen Mei was founded in 1919 by C. Chaplin, D. Van Punk, M. Bikfu, and D. W. Griffith. The purpose is to get rid of the shackles and exploitation of big film companies, and strive for more creative freedom and greater profits. Originally, it was conceived to produce and distribute the works of the four founders. After Griffiths withdrew and the limited number of works by Chaplin, Van Punk and others, the company made it a priority to fund independent filmmakers to make and distribute their films. Unlike other film companies at the time, Luen Mei did not have its own studios and had to rent space for filming, did not have its own hired movie stars and directors, and made films by investing in independent producers, and did not have its own cinemas, and distributed films on a film-by-film basis with distributors. Luen Mei was one of the first major companies to adopt the production and distribution methods that were prevalent in the United States in the 60s. This mode of operation and the relative independence of the director have enabled Luen Mei Company to shoot and distribute some films with certain influence and artistic achievements in addition to producing entertainment films. For example, C. Chaplin's "Gold Rush" (1925), "Modern Times" (1936), "The Great Dictator" (1940), "Stage Life" (1952), D.W. Griffith's "Destroyed Flowers" (1919), "Towards the East" (1920), "Scarface" (1932), "Peachy Apartment" (1960), "West Side Story" (1961) and so on.

Founded as a small company in New York, Luen Mei gradually grew into one of the eight major companies in the American film industry from the 20s to the mid-30s. In the 50s, when the American film industry entered a period of depression and recession, Chaplin and Bickley successively sold their shares to financial capitalists. In 1981, Luen Mei was bought by K. Kecorian, the owner of MGM, and renamed MGM-Luen Mei Entertainment.

Wang Jie wants to play a time difference and snatch Lianmei from the hands of this casino tycoon in advance.

"Heaven's Gate" was screened less than a month after the theater was painted by theaters, but the investment of 36 million US dollars was only exchanged for 4.2 million US dollars at the box office, Wang Jie took this opportunity to let the old housekeeper contact the shareholders of Luen Mei, after some ridiculous negotiations, finally completed the acquisition of Lian Mei on the day before New Year's Day, and spent Wang Jie 450 million US dollars before and after, if it was not for the big profit from oil futures, Wang Jie may have to take out another loan.

The reason why Wang Jie tried his best to want Lianmei was mainly for the copyright of the "007" series, one of Hollywood's super IPs, and Lianmei also owned the film and television rights of "The Lord of the Rings" and "The Hobbit", but as early as 1976, Wang Jie bought it back at a high price, and at that time he was not sure whether he could get Lianmei Pictures in the future.

Wang Jie had a very busy Christmas this year, as soon as Luen Mei was acquired, Wang Jie poached Shirley Lansing from Fox to be the president of Luen Mei Pictures, Wang Jie did not have the idea of merging Luen Mei into other companies, he was ready to divide his company to the women of the family in the future, Wang Jie is only interested in and hobbies in the entertainment industry, and his first pursuit in life is to practice and wait for immortality.

Time passed quietly, and in a blink of an eye, it was 1981, and Wang Jie's height had grown to 1.60 meters, looking like a teenager who was already fourteen or fifteen years old. At the beginning of January this year, Wang Jie led his family to Xiangjiang.

Since Wang Jie's acquisition of Jiayi TV Station, Jiayi has followed the example of wireless to recruit two artist training classes, and the third session was held in mid-January this year.

Because Jiayi had just experienced turmoil, the preparation was not sufficient, and only a few people such as Chen Min'er, Xu Weixin, and Li Chengchang were recruited. In the second session, Liang Shuyi improved her salary, and recruited many good seedlings such as Huang Rihua, Miao Qiaowei, Li Yumin, Wang Jingyi, Lao Xiangning, Wu Huichang, Wu Zhenzi, Li Huiran, Liang Shuer, Tan Yuying, Wen Wanyi, Hu Baohua and so on. The registration started before the third Spring Festival, purely to compete with the other two TV stations for good students.

After nearly a week of selection, Liang Shuyi left Andy Lau, Wu Jiali, Qi Meizhen, Liang Jiahui, Xu Jinjiang, Huang Yaoming, Pan Hongbin, Lian Weijian, Zhu Xiaobao, Lin Shufen, Liang Liyan, Li Li'e, Su Qianying, Hu Meiyu, Zeng Liping, Wen Shaofang, Chen Guoguang, Zhang Zhiliang, Deng Jinquan, Deng Lecheng, Xie Mingzhuang, Zhang Nanyan, Cai Liwei, Ma Zhiliang, Yu Weizhong and others.

As soon as the Spring Festival passed, Wang Jie came to the mainland of China again, and this time he was ready to negotiate the matter of the theater. With the spring breeze of reform and opening up, Wang Jie should lay out the cultural industry of mainland China as soon as possible and try to lay a foundation.
