Chapter 372: The Capitalist (I)

Li Mo went in and watched them one by one. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

He must have the right to go in, and after reading it, Li Mo put forward some valuable suggestions.

Li Mo can't be regarded as completely ignorant, although he is in the dark in Seoul and walking around Huang County, but when he has time, he continues to read with all kinds of books, including books related to all aspects of lithium-ion batteries.

Combined with some advanced knowledge that he remembered, combined with the theoretical knowledge he had learned, and combined with the insights he had learned from this inspection, some of the suggestions he put forward were very pertinent and practical.

These experts, along with some researchers, wrote them down one by one.

In fact, up to now, more and more people have known a lot of details about Li Mo, especially the international students who Hao Like poached from the United States, who have brought back more news about Li Mo. The experts listened...... One by one I don't know how to say it.

Therefore, they are becoming more and more cautious about Li Mo's attitude.

It's just that they are circulating internally, and they know the importance and don't dare to publicize it publicly, after all, this is 88 years, and with today's Chinese system, Li Mo's wealth will cause a lot of controversy if it is made public.

It's a very simple truth, so the students in Li Mo's class still don't know one by one.

Some students continued to be unhappy, and some students admitted at most that maybe some of the relationships behind Li Mo helped the school.

Li Mo looked at these students and researchers who came back from the United States again, and said: "Hao Lick asked you to come back, not to harm you, think about it, once this kind of battery is successfully developed, I don't mention how much honor it will bring to the country, but how much wealth will it create? As the backbone of research and development, you will also be the backbone of this battery company in the future." You need the company, you need the company to create great wealth, and the company also needs you, because it is just a beginning, just to open a door, behind the door there will be an infinite and vast world, you need to continue to develop with these elders and experts from various universities. ”

Some professors applauded.

They also hope to create wealth, so that universities can share dividends and have more teaching and research funds.

Dozens of international students also applauded, and many blushed or felt ashamed.

On the first day Li Mo came back, he skipped another half day of class.

But then Li Mo began his normal study life again.

But November has not yet arrived, and Li Mo skipped class again.

There are many classmates in the class who hate Li Mo to the core, but in fact, Li Mo is the busiest student in the class.

Li Mo didn't care what the mood of the classmates was. He first flew to Switzerland, where he kept the notebook, which had been further refined, in a safe in a Swiss bank. Out of the bank, Li Mo breathed a sigh of relief, this is his biggest secret.

It's too unsafe to keep at home, and there is still one at home, but it's just a matter of two or three years, even if it is lost and deciphered, it can be explained by his relatively smart and analytical skills. And the notebook I just put is not explained at all.

Then Li Mo found Tim, and the two talked about technical matters again. By this time, the LAN technology had fully taken shape, with only a few details to be perfected, and at most by the end of February, the LAN would be operational.

Li Mo had already known about the early launch of the regional network, but Li Mo still didn't say anything about his arrangement.

Thinking of this, he looked at the southeast again, the southeast direction is the direction of China, and then to the southeast, there is a palm-sized place, called Xiangjiang.

Subsequently, Li Mo flew to Los Angeles again.

This time he didn't get dark, he was a very busy business.

The Da Vinci Code is about to be released.

At present, the global box office has reached more than 370 million US dollars, and it is estimated that it will be difficult to exceed 400 million US dollars, and the North American box office is 120 million US dollars.

The most profitable is the North American box office, film companies and investors can get about 50% of the pre-tax dividends, foreign dividends are relatively low, the high can get 40%, the low can only get 20%, and even later Hollywood in order to open the Chinese market, the initial dividend is only 10 percent, and later mentioned 25%. After this dividend is obtained, taxes must be paid, and after all taxes are paid, it is the income of individuals or companies.

Li Mo put the investment and dividends of the film in Io Studio, and the reason why he did this was that he put it in the name of the company, so that he would pay less taxes and save the trouble of various contracts.

Looking at the box office statistics, Kecorian opened his mouth with joy.

The income is not only these, but also the income from video tapes, and the income from various broadcast rights.

After the fact, its various net income reached more than $100 million, and Iostudio got $35 million after taxes, which was just enough to invest in several other films. The rest of the head was taken by MGM together.

And the "Rain Man" that followed, in short, this is a rare fat year for MGM.

Kerionian said, "Lee, you're not doing it fairly, several other companies have got your script, why don't you have our MGM?"

"You didn't even get the Da Vinci code, how did I give you the script at that time?"

"Now, I'm talking now. ”

Li Mo thought for a moment and said: "Not next year, the schedule is too tight, Paramount and Warner have each pressed down a film." ”

"The year after tomorrow, the year after that. ”

Li Mo learned that Kercorian had no intention of running MGM, and he didn't want to give the film.

"Kerkorian, that's the year after tomorrow, and we'll talk about it again when I come to the United States next summer. ”

"Lee, you can't answer me in such an ambiguous tone. "Although Kecorian is not virtuous, he is not a fool, otherwise he would not be able to find out who the old king next door is.

"Kerkorian, you have to force me to promise, in this way, no matter what film I give you, you must promise me a few conditions, the first condition, the other films in your company have nothing to do with me, but this film is mine, and whatever I say is what it is. ”

"Li, with this condition, what other conditions do you need?"

"That's what you want, you should know my style, before the general cooperation, I will say ugly things first, so as not to have unpleasantness in the future. Including these conditions, I must also make it clear. ”

"So what are the conditions?"

"Investment, directing, casting, script, publicity, editing, including location selection, etc., all have to listen to me. ”

Kercorian was dumbfounded, in that case, what rights does MGM have left?

"Okay, we'll talk about it next year. Kerkorian was stunned.

In fact, Li Mo didn't want to care about these things, and the reason was still on Kecoryan.

Li Mo went to several film companies again, except for Paramount who pressed down to dance with wolves and Warner who pressed down to sleep with the enemy, some of the remaining films are already starting to be filmed, and some are at least already preparing for filming.

The main reason is that they are all medium-sized or medium-sized investment films, and after Li Mo's investment and insertion of advertising revenue, the funds required are not much, no matter which film company, can afford it. If it weren't for the staggered schedule, it is estimated that all seven movies would be filming now.

The reason why Li Mo watched it was because of the Da Vinci code, and the box office was about that, in 88, this movie was still a super high-grossing blockbuster. But Li Mo knows that the total box office of this movie in his previous life was more than 700 million US dollars.

Maybe the dollar is more valuable now, and the United States has not dominated the world and other factors, but if he doesn't force MGM to make up the film, what will be the final box office of this movie?

Of the five movies that started filming, each of them was not low at the box office.

As long as it is not much worse than the previous life, it can be said that the expenses of Huangxian County can almost be earned in five movies, but if they can't earn it, seven movies must be more than enough.

So Li Mo was very cautious, and from now on, he took the initiative to intervene, but now Hollywood has not recognized Li Mo's "king status", but he is the main investor and has the right to intervene.

Pete came over again, and Li Mo threw him a script and said, "Look at it." ”

After Pete finished reading it, he said happily: "Lee, you must let me play the starring role." ”

"Can you play the misery, the experience, and the domineering ...... the protagonist?"

"I can play well. ”

"Pete," said Limer, looking at him shaking his blonde hair, "with the way you are now, don't be funny." Do that thing for me next year, this is a rare tempering for you, with this experience, you can be about the same, barely make do, as the protagonist of this movie. ”

"Where ......"

"Don't you want to?"

Pete said with a bitter face: "Yes, yes." ”

In the United States, the rich must have at least some form of public welfare, but in the same way, it is shameful to refuse public welfare activities, although God knows what kind of public welfare activities these public welfare activities are.

Li Mo went from one film company to another for a few days.

Don Valentine finally found the door.

"Lee, we have to kick the Bossaks out of management. ”

Li Mo said: "Valentine, this is a bit bad, they are the founders of Cisco after all. ”

"Li, is Cisco going public?"

"Isn't it okay not to go public? If you don't go public, you can pay dividends next year. Li Mo pretended to be stupid and said crazy.

"When it goes public, Cisco can develop better. ”

"Valentine, let's put it this way, I'm also forced out of Cisco's management by the Posacks and you guys, isn't it funny that you come and ask me now?"

"Lee, you are voluntary. ”

Li Mo touched his chest and said, "Mr. Valentine, for the sake of Cisco's future, I have taken a big step back. But ask yourself, if I don't back down and you join forces with Bosak, what will Cisco be tossed by you in the end? I was taught that capitalists are black-hearted and cannibalistic. After coming to the United States, I saw many enthusiastic capitalists and realized that this statement was biased. But these capitalists are not without ......"

You are this kind of capitalist.

Shameless, thick black, shameless.

In fact, Li Mo deliberately led the Metasequoia Fund into Cisco, but who could have thought of it?

No matter which person it is, their opinion is that the Bossaks are desperately tossing in the company, plus the Metasequoia Fund took the opportunity to enter, and even the senators of Congress brought over to threaten Li Mo, who had to make painful concessions.

Don Valentine said the truth, but he didn't believe it himself.

"Valentine, I am the majority shareholder of the company, and I only supervise the company's finances and whether you fulfill the contract, and I won't care about the rest. Anyway, the voting power is given to you, you can kick if you want, or you don't kick or not. I left management, what does it have to do with me?"

Metasequoia Fund wants to operate Cisco to be listed, and at this time, Cisco has the qualifications to be listed on the NASDAQ in terms of revenue and scale, but because of the toss of the Bossacks, even if it is listed, the stock price will not be high. Even due to the couple's obstruction, the roadshow could not go smoothly.

It just so happened that Li Mo came to the United States, and Don Valentine's good idea was not what we wanted to play, but Li Mo's wise move for the development of Cisco, so this notoriety was borne by Li Mo.
