What kind of person is Xiao Ran? Tie Long didn't even need to recall, the scenes of the fiascos had always appeared in his mind. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 infoUntil now, he still didn't understand why Mo Wynn had lost, and so badly.

Unforgettable hatred, this is how Tielong feels about Xiao Ran. If Xiao Ran hadn't destroyed Hongguo, he would have definitely gotten the opportunity to stand on his own, and then create a greater film empire like Xiao Ran.

Emotionally, he hated Xiao Ran so much. However, from a rational point of view, he had to admire Xiao Ran's attitude of ease when he controlled everything, and his composure in indulging everything under calm. It's just that he didn't realize his feelings for Xiao Ran at all, which was an emotion of both hatred and admiration.

After telling the story of the process of Fang Ruohai and Mo Huaien being completely knocked down, Tielong completely fell into his own thoughts, and said in an almost dreamlike tone: "He is like a sharp blade that has reined in all its edge, taking everything away from you at your most relaxed moment." When he is angry, he is like the most angry tyrant, capable of destroying his enemies by any means! ”

Suddenly, he seemed to see Xiao Ran smiling at him fiercely, and immediately broke out in a cold sweat. Seeing that both of them were listening attentively, he hurriedly continued: "Xiao Ran likes to use strategy very much, and what he is best at is to use the power of others to do things for himself. With the help of Haile Group, the Phantom has obtained the most favorable opportunity for development, and then destroys it. With the help of Golden Harvest, Xiao Ran controlled the largest distribution company in Yueben, and also destroyed it. With the help of Hongguo, he obtained the largest distribution rights in South Korea, and then destroyed Hongguo! ”

"He won't do anything that has no interests, and I think he will even let the enemy go because he has no interests." Tie Long has studied Xiao Ran for a long time since his defeat, and he bets that he is the one who knows Xiao Ran best in the world now: "Therefore, every time Xiao Ran's enemies challenge, they are adding strength to Xiao Ran's expansion and rule!" ”

"He likes to strategize and win a thousand miles, and in normal times, he doesn't show anything, but he lays out the most comprehensive traps. When the time comes, he will launch all his attacks, leaving people in complete despair and unable to fight back! Tie Long suddenly felt terrible, and he even felt that Xiao Ran described by his mouth was so terrifying.

The more Turner and Michael listened, the more surprised they became, it was not that they had not checked Xiao Ran, but what they found was never as deep as the person concerned. According to Tie Long's description, then Xiao Ran was a very formidable enemy, and they glanced at each other, thinking that this might not be an easy opponent to deal with.

In fact, they swear to God that they never thought of being able to bankrupt the Phantom, just as Xiao Ran never thought about being able to bankrupt these big companies. It is definitely not easy for a company to go bankrupt, especially for a large group of this scale with a market value of more than $10 billion.

Jokes aside, if these group companies had not expanded as rapidly as Xiao Ran, or had not suffered too large losses and huge operating problems, or had not been burdened with too large debts, they were unlikely to go bankrupt. It is no exaggeration to say that there are absolutely countless people who want to get involved in Hollywood, and as long as these companies are willing to raise funds, large inflows of money are absolutely conceivable.

It seems that Xiao Ran is ready, if the phantom really has a financial problem because of the tens of billions of dollars this time, then the world fund can be financed at any time. At that time, with liquidity, the world was peaceful.

Therefore, this is obviously not a battle of life and death, but a battle that can expel or stand firm. However, this battle is also extremely important, and both Turner and Michael are well aware of this.

Warner is the company that has cooperated with the Phantom the most times, and has rented from the Phantom many times (the previous article was written as a buyout, and now it has been changed back, Xiao Ran has long had the idea of entering Hollywood, and of course will not sell out the copyright of those films that make a lot of money) for film distribution. Although there are only a few films every year, there are always one or two films that can get excellent results every year, so imagine how big the impact of the Phantom on the other six King Kongs in the film market is if it can stand firm.

Disney also has such a crisis, and Warner's animated films for the Phantom have achieved excellent results in North America. And one of the reasons why Disney is so powerful is that it is the only hegemon in the world's cartoon market. If it is hit by the Phantom, the animation market that supports the entire Disney will be damaged, and Disney will also be severely traumatized.

With these reasons, they will definitely not let Xiao Ran easily gain a foothold here. But what can they do? Hollywood is so big, it's definitely not easy to control actors, unless you can control actors or directors and other guilds. But this is obviously not an easy task, and the union exists to oppose the monopoly of giants.

They all think it's worth trying, it doesn't need to be controlled, and a certain amount of advocacy can achieve the goal. Turner laughed out loud: "I think we can also arrange a little obstacle for Xiao Ran in the release!" ”

Michael's eyes lit up, that's right, Warner and Disney each control some of the theater shares, as long as they join forces, they will definitely be able to overwhelm the Phantom. Moreover, they all know very well that those theaters will not refuse their demands, at least until Universal has not shown them enough profits, which can be done. The two laughed at the same time, and Tie Long couldn't help but show a vicious smile, as long as he could make Xiao Ran painful, he would be happy.

While they were talking, Xiao Ran was welcoming a guest, and it was a very different guest - Murdoch. Xiao Ran met the future media tycoon in his room, and of course, Murdoch's current power is far less powerful than that of the Phantom as a whole.

Murdoch has a bit of an iron fist and looks very determined. shook hands with Xiao Ran, and sat down by himself, Murdoch looked at Xiao Ran, and suddenly laughed: "I have always admired people who can rob money in my hands, and today I finally met Your Excellency, I am very happy to see you!" ”

Xiao Ran smiled lightly, that was two years ago, when Murdoch was trying to buy and merge his own television network in the United Kingdom. As a result, I didn't expect to suddenly jump out of the Phantom Group and reach an acquisition at a higher price. In addition to this one, the Phantom of Hong Kong tried to prevent the intrusion of Murdoch News Corp., and thwarted News Corp.'s acquisition plans several times.

Seeing Xiao Ran's calm smile, Murdoch gradually stopped laughing, and instead appeared with a mysterious smile: "Mr. Xiao, I know you like this title more, so I call you like this like this." This time, I have brought you a great gift, how will you thank me? ”

Xiao Ran smiled indifferently, since Murdoch came to the United States quietly, and he came to see him as soon as possible. It would be foolish if he didn't know what Murdoch was trying to do. Sure enough, Murdoch obviously didn't care about Xiao Ran's silence at all, and quickly said the answer: "I will bring you an ally, an ally with weight!" ”

"No, Mr. Murdoch, you are wrong." Xiao Ran smiled weirdly, Murdoch was just anxious about Fox's loss situation, and when he saw the chaos in Hollywood in front of him, he decided to come over and take command in person, which was not much good for the world at all.

Xiao Ran can fully imagine what kind of means Warner and other companies will use to deal with Universal, in fact, if you want to do something in the film industry, those methods are nothing more than the most shocking. Issuance? Xiao Ran is not afraid at all, "Jurassic Park" will definitely be able to open the door of American theaters, as long as you knock on this door, there will be no more problems in the future.

When it comes to the sniping of actors and crew, Xiao Ran has also been prepared, otherwise why has he been trying his best to recruit Western actors and filmmakers in the past few years? Although there are not many at the moment, as long as there are actors, plus the top filmmakers of the Phantom, there are definitely a lot of things that can be done.

Phantom is not Haile without capital in the film industry, and its base in Hong Kong is enough to accompany all kinds of talents to come over. It's just that at the most critical time, Xiao Ran doesn't plan to let Hong Kong filmmakers integrate into Hollywood, what he really wants is to attract Hollywood filmmakers to Hong Kong. No, just by virtue of Phantom's director-centered system, it can attract a lot of talented directors.

Therefore, the current situation is obviously not as tense as imagined, but everyone is preparing to launch. Murdoch apparently lost his eyes, thinking that the Phantom was in desperate need of allies. However, Xiao Ran didn't care about having one more ally: "The Phantom and Universal are fully capable of dealing with all difficulties, of course, I will never refuse one more ally." ”

Murdoch was slightly startled, thinking to himself, could it be that Xiao Ran had already premeditated? On the surface, he laughed and stretched out his hand to Xiao Ran: "Then we are allies from now on, how do you think we should deal with the attacks of other companies?" ”

"At least until we defeat the conspiracy of other companies, we are allies!" Xiao Ran stretched out his hand to shake it, and stared at Murdoch meaningfully. Murdoch's News Corp. and Phantom's development paths overlap quite a bit, and they will definitely fight each other in the future, Murdoch knows, and he knows!

"Obviously, there's not much they can do, I guess it's just to make a mess for us in terms of distribution and production!" Xiao Ran's fingers fluttered across his beard, looking like he had a different meaning.

In the film industry, some things are complicated and some things are simple. Fox has been losing money, in addition to the constant sniping from the outside world, but also because of its own poor management. If you had a structure as well-established and efficient as the Phantom, you wouldn't be in such a crisis.

Things are often so simple, and the theater chain is also pursuing profits, just like when the Phantom knocked on the door of Yuben and South Korea with "Spy Change". When there is enough interest, then anyone who stands in the way of the Phantom will become an ally. It's as if Murdoch abandoned his previous grievances and cooperated with Xiao Ran in order to let Fox stand firm and come back to life.

Murdoch hesitated for a moment, wondering if there was something to tell Xiao Ran about something he had heard in England. However, when he thought that the Phantom was the most formidable opponent in front of News Corp., he immediately dismissed the idea, if the Phantom was on the way to death, then he didn't care about pushing it behind.

It's just that the momentary hesitation in his eyes was caught in Xiao Ran's eyes, and his mind quickly turned away, and he wanted to figure out what it meant. After Murdoch left, Xiao Ran fell into deep thought again, he always felt that he must have ignored something, especially after the moment of hesitation when he saw Murdoch.

But he couldn't think of what it was, damn it! He scolded and turned his attention to Murdoch and News Corp. Murdoch's vision for News Corp. has four strongholds, his home country of Australia and the United Kingdom, as a way to confront Europe. The third is the United States, and the fourth is Hong Kong.

In Australia, Xiao Ran definitely can't do Lao Mo, in fact, he pays attention to the pimple place at all. In the UK, the Phantom had been in the media and television industry for several years, and had the upper hand in the fight against News Corp. thanks to its financial resources and vast integrated entertainment backing. In the United States, the Phantom is definitely not Lao Mo's opponent.

The Phantom currently controls only a few local television networks and will soon be integrated under the Universal umbrella. Moreover, it is absolutely not easy for the Phantom to control the three major television networks, even if there are enough financial resources, there is at least a 99 percent chance that the US political axe will not approve the Phantom to obtain absolute control. (The specifics are not clear, but the United States prides itself on not interfering in the economy, so it should not interfere too much)

Hong Kong is an extremely important base, and Lao Mo has not developed in Hong Kong at all, and he can't take care of it for the time being. In the past few years, Phantom has successfully integrated major TV networks, based in Hong Kong, and radiating to the mainland throughout Asia.

Because Shuxiang Media is about to merge with ATV Group, merge into a super multinational media group, and become the flagship of the Phantom Control media industry. Wei Dongling's strategy for the future merger of the media group is to dominate the media industry with Hong Kong, the United Kingdom and the United States as the three major bases. Of course, Hong Kong is a top priority.

Thinking of the development of the Phantom in the UK, Xiao Ran suddenly had a flash of inspiration, his face changed greatly, and he almost didn't jump up. He thought that he finally understood what the problem he had been ignoring was that he had ignored Britain, or rather the British political axe in Hong Kong......

Thinking of this, he stayed for a long time, and gradually smoothed out the chaotic thinking in his mind. Only then did the plan he had made with Wei Dongling gradually emerge, a plan for the British political axe in Hong Kong, a plan initiated by the British. immediately made a phone call to Guan Xin and instructed him to start implementing the plan, in order to make the Hong Kong film political axe discredited to the greatest extent.

"Ah Ran, I don't know what to say!" Guan Xin hesitated very rarely, and then said to Xiao Ran: "Liang Kun has been very active in the past two years, and he is also very keen to meddle in the control of the underworld. Although this is his duty, I think sometimes he has a little bit of a close relationship with the underworld. However, I asked him to check up, but I really didn't find anything, so I was on guard. ”

Xiao Ran didn't think so, a person who didn't want to mix in the underworld in the first place, could he regret it now? However, Guan Xin is right, and it is also a good thing to be on guard. Cautious made him ask very carefully: "Master, your previous arrangements are all right, right?" ”

"No problem, you can start it at any time!" Guan Xin has now left the National Security Bureau and has a post in Hong Kong affairs in the political axe, and Sunshine and Monkey have also been removed from the National Security Bureau, and they completely belong to Xiao Ran's bodyguards. Therefore, Guan Xin can only rely on the previous relationship to do what information they want now. However, in this regard, the top is still very helpful.

After making another call to Wei Dongling and arranging everything, Xiao Ran was playing around waiting for everything to break out. Opportunities are always born with crises, and if you can seize them, you can achieve success, right?

At this time, several important people came to the Hong Kong Governor's Office, and they were holding an unknown meeting. Hong Kong Governor Chris Patten clapped his hands, attracted the attention of others, and then said quietly: "Everyone knows that Xiao Ran, the chairman of the Phantom Board of Directors, has posed a considerable threat to our British rule, and people even think that Xiao Ran is the real ruler. So, I'm bringing you here to discuss this! ”

Although Chris Patten is a politician, he also knows very well that no one here can afford to provoke Xiao Ran, and what he says to deal with Xiao Ran will never be said by anyone here. Therefore, he decided to get straight to the point and give everyone a "surprise".

Sure enough, it was a surprise, in fact, I was able to be secretly invited, and I basically knew it. However, now when I hear Patten's words, I still can't help but tremble. The Secretary for Security, Lai Hing-ning, was British, and then asked with a calm face: "Mr. Governor, what do you mean?" ”

"Have you all forgotten how he used the gangsters to threaten us last time!" Patten's expression gradually became excited, and he waved his fists and behaved like a politician: "It is absolutely impossible for the British Empire to succumb to such a scoundrel, we must defeat him and take back the power and wealth that belong to us!" ”

Bullshit politicians, stop talking nonsense here! Li Qingning kept scolding in his stomach, Patten's home is not here, so of course he is not afraid. But which of the other people here has a wife and children who are not in Hong Kong? As long as Xiao Ran knew everything that was being talked about here, they would definitely not end well.

Seeing that no one responded, Chris Patten sat down without any embarrassment and continued: "From the standpoint of the British Empire, you definitely have reason to think about the country, you are British, have you forgotten?" ”
