Since Time Warner was founded in 1918, there has never been such a violent turmoil as it is now, with the internal forces fighting endlessly, and the external news corps eyeing the acquisition proposal, at which time the Chinese forces are collectively in trouble...... At this moment, whoever is in control of this media giant ship will probably feel anxious. [No pop-up novel network]

In New York, Time Warner's headquarters office, Abel asked the head of the finance department with a solemn face.

"Do you find out how much money they're spending? Are you sure they want to buy nearly 50% of the entire Time Warner shares? ”

"Yes...... It has all been verified, and Black Feather Studio, together with Wanda, Sina, Huawei, China Film, and some Hong Kong fund companies, is operating about $25 billion to $30 billion, and is negotiating with almost all the shareholders of the group......"

The head of the finance department was covered with sweat on his forehead, and his expression was nervous, while Allen next to him had an extremely gloomy face.

"There is so much money to ...... Are these Chinese companies so strong? For the first time, a confused look appeared on Abel's angular face, and he still didn't believe that Gu Xiaofan had the ambition to annex the entire Warner Group...... Not to mention that he was able to mobilize such a large force in China.

$30 billion...... It is equivalent to a country with a population of 7 million like Paraguay, which has a total annual GDP.

Even the hedge fund companies at the peak of Wall Street may not be able to come up with these funds.

In contrast, News Corp. wants to negotiate a wholly-owned acquisition of Time Warner for $40 billion, and China's direct hostile acquisition of shares is more domineering and direct, almost completely unreasonable.

"Mr. Abel...... What to do now, if they succeed, we really don't have a chance at next year's general meeting of shareholders of our group. The treasurer's voice trembled.

"Don't worry." At this time, Abel showed the old spicy of the shopping mall, and his eyes flashed with a faint light:

"Those shareholders are some old slippery heads, now they have three choices, one supports me, the second is to join News Corporation, the third choice is to hand over the group to those Chinese, the more they go to the back, the more valuable their shares are, most of them will definitely wait until the end, the key now is the effect of "The Dark Knight" after its release, and Gu Xiaofan's personal influence."

"What if the Dark Knight works well after it is released? What if Gu Xiaofan's personal influence expands again? Are those shareholders defecting like Nolan? Allen, who had been silent, asked three times in a row, obviously extremely restless in his heart.

"I don't know the result of the release of "The Dark Knight", that is what Fox and James Cameron are worried about, I can only be sure that Gu Xiaofan's personal influence will never become greater than it is now." Abel's expression was a little distant, as if he was thinking about something else, as if Gu Xiaofan would not pose a threat to him.

The King of Time Warner just quietly looked at his son's aggressive face, as if complaining that he was not able to leave the entire Time Warner to him, and could not let him inherit the glory of his ancestors.

Abel really didn't expect that at such a critical juncture, his son was still questioning himself for his own interests, which shows that any emotion in this world is hypocritical, and only interests are the only link between people.

Abel wanted to tell Alan that he had arranged everything, and Gu Xiaofan would definitely not be able to play any role at the most critical moment, but he couldn't say it, because in his heart, he still wanted to protect his only child, and there were some things to keep him out of it......

Time Warner will always be surnamed Warner.

At the same time, News Corp. also felt caught off guard, they have been putting pressure on Time Warner for the past two years, just to make them bow their heads and agree to News Corp's acquisition plan, but they didn't expect that at the most critical time, they would make a halfway way to bite the gold.

Edward had been pacing back and forth indoors for a few more times, frowning his brows, and his mind seemed to be very restless, and it was a long time before he whispered out of the window:

"With such turmoil within Warner, it's a good opportunity for us to negotiate with those shareholders, but how can so many Chinese companies suddenly pay so much to buy their shares? Is this a coincidence? Or was all this arranged by Gu Xiaofan? What exactly does he want to do? ”

At this time, his room was originally empty, and he seemed to be talking to himself, but as soon as he finished speaking, he heard a crisp and lively female voice say:

"How can he have this ability, I think that Gu Xiaofan is just to gain a foothold in Warner, put pressure on Abel Warner, and make a show."

As the voice appeared, a delicate figure entered, and Lily sat down across from her brother.

Edward turned to face her, although he felt slightly unhappy that she pushed the door in directly, but quickly regained his smile: "Lily, did you find something?" ”

Lily pursed her lips and paused for a moment before smiling: "Edward, do you know how much of Time Warner's shares have been acquired by those Chinese with such fanfare?" ”

"They should have more than 20 billion in funds." Edward's mind was spinning quickly: "Didn't their acquisition of shares go well?" ”“

"Alas, those Chinese always think that if they have money, they can do everything, they are still those old-fashioned treats, and they stuff red envelopes in private, but these small favors are not strange to those old foxes in Warner, I have already checked, they only get about 11% of the shares now, and most of the shareholders are swaying......"

Edward waited for a while, and found that Lily didn't continue, and couldn't help but be surprised: "Is this all the information?" ”

"Don't you think it's enough?"

"Of course not enough." Edward felt very incredible: "I now want to find out what those Chinese want to do, whether they want to control part of Warner's shares, wait for us and Abel to sell, and become the third largest force in Warner, or they want to support Gu Xiaofan and control the entire Warner Group." ”

Lily was silent for a moment and said, "Edward, do you really think Gu Xiaofan has this ability?" Can he control a conglomerate as big as Time Warner? Even if he had this ambition, would the Chinese entrepreneurs let him take control of Warner? They used so much money, it was impossible for them to make a wedding dress for the Black Feather Studio. ”

"I can't do it, I think it's quite likely." At this time, Edward showed a vision that surpassed his sister.

"In exchange for you, will you hand over your fate to a 22-year-old kid like Gu Xiaofan?" Lily asked curiously.

"Then you should learn more about Gu Xiaofan's style of acting."
