PS: Some people began to ask why it was set to 2009, and I believe you understand that this is the real purpose of setting it to 2009. As needed, the sale of Lei Shidong's shares was postponed for a month.

There is a lot of information in this chapter, not only this chapter, but there is also some information in the next chapter, but I have deleted and added it a few times, and I found that this information is missing, which will make everyone understand what is going on. Please forgive me, I really don't cheat on the number of words.

Isn't this nonsense, Via may have a lot of meanings, but from the mouth of Catherine, who is engaged in financial management, plus there is a CBS behind it, it must be Viacom.

Viacom is the world's fourth-largest media conglomerate, behind The Walt Disney Company, Time Warner and News Corp. Viacom is definitely best known for Paramount. As a long-established company in Hollywood, Paramount has produced countless classic films. For example, "The Godfather", "Roman Holiday", "Forrest Gump", etc., and in recent years, "Titanic" and "Transformers", which have been co-produced with others, also acquired DreamWorks in 06, which can be said to be a very successful film company.

And CBS, one of the three major TV networks in North America, (CBS TV station logo like eyes), familiar, too familiar. He watches CBS every Tuesday because Xiao Yifei's favorite NCIS and NCIS:LA are from the eye station. Of course, his favorite Stargate: SGU is from Syfy, which belongs to NBC, one of the three major television networks.

CBS TV network is known as the elderly station because of the age of the viewership. But the viewership group is the first largest. In addition, his American dramas are very good-looking, especially detectives and the like, which are simply their home turf, such as CM (Criminal Minds), CSI (Crime Scene Investigation), etc. In addition, the sitcom TBBT (The Big Bang Theory) and the two and a half heroes are also very good, and Martin, the assistant winemaker who calls himself a cellar mouse in the winery, likes "The Big Bang Theory" very much.

In addition, CBS has a CW television network. "The Vampire Diaries," which premiered on CW this year, has achieved nearly 5 million viewers since its inception. It caused a wave of vampires among young people. The Halloween Parade has its credit for the vampire dressing up the streets. Xiao Ya likes this American drama very much, there are a lot of handsome guys and beauties in it, she said that the download rate of this American drama in China is very high, many forums are discussing this drama, and many subtitle groups will translate and update it as soon as possible.

In China, the letters were reversed by netizens. ridiculed him as a toilet station (wc), of course, the official nickname is the youth station. It is mainly aimed at the youth market. In 2006, CBS and Warnarbro. merged with UPN and WB TV, each of which had closed down at a loss, with each holding a 50% stake, and the initials of CBS and Warner Bros. were used to form CW.

But what did she mean by that suddenly?

"I know them, what's wrong with them?"

"Is Mr. Shaw interested in their stock?"

Of course, Xiao Yifei was interested in their stocks. It can be said that he is interested in all stocks, and now the trend of the stock market is to slowly recover, and there is a great chance of making money on any stock he buys now, but there is a difference in the amount of money, but unfortunately he just has no money now.

"Of course I'm interested, but haven't I already invested my money elsewhere? It's up to you to do it. What do you mean? ”

"Mr. Xiao, this matter is not clear in a sentence or two, are you busy now. Can you make it to San Francisco? ”

"Okay, then I'll be here right away, about 1 hour to arrive."

"Okay. Mr. Xiao, I'll wait for you. ”

Xiao Yifei was very embarrassed to find the master and the president:

"I'm sorry, I just got a call, I need to get back to San Francisco right away."

"What's the matter? Can't you go back after dinner? ”

"It's a business thing, someone is still waiting, and I have to rush over immediately."

"Then you go. Say you need help. ”

"I'm really sorry."

Liang Bo said generously:

"It's all right, young man. Careers matter. Xiao Qi, Xiao Qi. Help me send Xiao Xiao. ”

When he went out, Xiao Yifei said to Liang Siqi embarrassedly:

"I'm sorry just now, I don't know ......"

"It's okay, it's been so many years."

Xiao Yifei changed the subject:

"I heard that the Stanford campus is beautiful, and I plan to visit it when I have time."

"Okay, call me when you arrive, and I'll be your tour guide."

Xiao Yifei got into the car, waved at her, and ran away.

When he hurried to Catherine's office, Catherine warmly received him and took him to a small conference room, in addition to Vice President Marshall, there were three of Catherine's subordinates, and of course, the lawyer Ryan who had been notified by Xiao Yifei to arrive.

One of the female staff members saw him and beckoned:

"Mr. Xiao, may I be seated, coffee or tea?"

"Water will do the trick. What do you mean by what you say on the phone? ”

After everyone sat down, Catherine said a bombshell news with a smile on her face:

"At the beginning of the month, Lei Shidong's American Entertainment Company announced that it was going to sell nearly 1 billion shares, including more than 19 million shares of Viacom stock and more than 26 million shares of CBS shares."

Media tycoon Lei Shidong, Xiao Yifei must know that he is not an ordinary person, he is worth billions of dollars, and his companies are very wide-ranging, so it can be said that he can be seen in all entertainment industries. Such a media giant was actually forced to buy stocks, which really shocked Xiao Yifei.

But then he was very strange about what Catherine meant by the news at the beginning of the month.

Seeing Xiao Yifei's puzzled gaze, Catherine explained:

"The news was not made public, it was revealed from private sources, because they were only quietly looking for a buyer through a law firm. It's only now that it's getting to us. ”

Oh, this kind of private and whispered questioning, usually the previous one will be replaced by the next one when they can't get along, no wonder they only receive the news now. But could this be fake news, Lei Shidong is a billionaire. CBS and Viacom, which he bought with great difficulty, how could he sell it easily? Therefore, Xiao Yifei must first determine the authenticity of the news.

"Why would he want to sell stocks?"

Catherine could only explain to him that Lei Shidong, a tycoon, could be said to be riddled with debts in recent years.

Everyone knows that Viacom and CBS are Lei Shidong's industries, but Lei Shidong does not directly control these two groups, and they also have a parent company called American Entertainment Company. Or the All-American Entertainment Company (al_.), which is the private company of Lei Shidong, and 80% of its shares are in Somer. Lei Shidong is in his hands, while the other 20% of the stock is in his daughter Sally. Lei Shidong is in his hands.

In addition to having an absolute controlling stake in CBS Group and Viacom, Amusement operates movie theaters in the United States and abroad. With 1500 screens. And several cinema lines have also been established. But at the same time, because of the expansion, the United States Entertainment was saddled with $1.6 billion in debt.

In May this year, Lei Shidong's All-American Entertainment restructured $1.46 billion of debt, postponed the maturity date of these debts to December 31, 2010, and made partial payments this year and next, which is considered to loosen the rope around his neck.

But the unfortunate financial crisis has not passed, and his industry has not improved, seeing that the deadline for the first installment of more than $800 million in debt this year is approaching December 31, and the money has not yet been settled. He had intended to pay off his debts by selling the theater. But because of her daughter's objection, plus she couldn't find a buyer. So Lei Shidong could only continue to play the idea of stocks.

Poor Catherine just explained such a big chase to Xiao Yifei. Immediately, Xiao Yifei's next question came again:

"Why would he go to a buyer privately?"

Lei Shidong sold $236 million of Viacom and CBS shares last year, which made him criticized by many shareholders and shareholders, and he was forced to publicly declare that he would not reduce his shareholdings again. Unfortunately, this time he was forced by debt again and had to sell his shares, so he had to sell them privately. ”

Xiao Yifei understood, although Lei Shidong, as a major shareholder, must make an announcement to sell his shares. But Lei Shidong obviously wanted to create a fait accompli this time and was issuing a notice. At that time, any protest by the shareholders was ineffective. Although it was said that Lei Shidong was sold privately, he must have informed many people. For example, the China Securities Regulatory Commission must have notified it, and the board members must have known about it, and it seems that he has done a good job, and there is no news in the market yet.

Seeing that Xiao Yifei finally had no problem, Catherine finally had the opportunity to take a sip of the coffee in front of her. This paragraph of popular science really made her say a little dry. However, she doesn't feel annoyed, as a financial advisor, she is afraid that the other party will not give you a chance to speak, as long as the other party is willing to listen to you, then you will have a chance. Just like everyone sees door-to-door salesmen and telesalesmen, if the other party refuses to listen to you, then there will definitely be no chance to sell it.

After understanding the cause and effect of this incident, Xiao Yifei fell into deep thought. He's considering whether he should keep Apple and Netflix now, or sell them for Viacom or CBS.

For this question, Xiao Yifei quickly decided to choose the latter.

Logically speaking, it may be that Apple is more profitable, but he basically did not help Xiao Yifei's career. And Apple's plate is too big, Xiao Yifei spent $100 million to buy 500,000 shares, which accounts for only 0.06% of Apple's hundreds of millions of shares, which is basically equivalent to having no right to speak, and can only passively accept the rise and fall of the stock and use the price difference to make some money.

And the same $100 million can buy 0.8% Viacom and 1.4% CBS. The importance of media conglomerates, that's well known, so they've always been firmly controlled by the Jews. The current financial crisis has finally made such a gap in their control, and if they don't grab it now, they will have no chance in the future.

"Is your suggestion that I sell the Apple and Netflix that I have now and buy this?"

Catherine nodded:

"I suggest you sell both Sosby and the gold and use them all to buy them."

Xiao Yifei asked embarrassedly:

"What's Southby's stock price now?"

The female clerk who poured the water did not hesitate to report:

“20.86。”

Catherine and Marshall smiled and nodded, it seems that this person with a heart is trying to use it in the right direction. (To be continued)
