Xiao Ran was determined to pull Lei Shidong a hand, he needed an ally, and Lei Shidong was a good choice. The pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info this was something he decided in advance, and for this reason, he even asked the headquarters to raise 10 billion US dollars through loans and other means.

In a situation that was complicated by the appearance of the phantom, Wei Dongling called angrily because of this raising. The Phantom was almost in financial difficulties, and if it weren't for the Bank of China's help in lending four billion dollars very quickly, I am afraid that the Phantom, which was already short of funds due to frequent acquisitions, would not be able to come up with this huge amount.

Xiao Ran couldn't wait to swear to guarantee that there would be absolutely no problem, so Wei Dongling let Xiao Ran go. Xiao Ran asked Huang Ling to call Pyrok and Han Long, and then grabbed the phone in the room and called home, it was his mother who answered the phone, and when he heard Xiao Ran's voice, he showed joy: "Son, how are you doing in the United States now?" Don't do anything to be sorry for Qingxia! ”

Xiao Ran smiled bitterly, in the current situation in Hollywood, he just can't do anything he wants. After a few words of assurance, my mother went to call Lin Qingxia: "Husband, what's the matter?" The kids are about to take a break! ”

"It's okay, I'm just a little nervous!" Xiao Ran took a deep breath, this acquisition made the Phantom, which had expanded too violently, finally reach the limit, if it could not be successful, then the only way to quickly sell the shares of Hathaway was to sell the shares of Hathaway, anyway, those shares had already earned hundreds of millions of dollars for the Phantom, if it was sold, it would allow the Phantom to obtain more than ten times the income of the investment.

Among the stocks controlled by the Phantom, the stock of this company is the one that Xiao Ran values the least. After all, Warren Buffett is playing financial investment, which is different from Xiao Ran's purpose, financial investment is too empty, maybe it may not be known if he lost all his money that day. Therefore, Xiao Ran has always been very cautious in this.

"What's wrong? What happened to you and why are you nervous? Lin Qingxia immediately forgot everything, only caring, caring for her husband.

"It's nothing, I'm going to initiate an acquisition this time, which will be very helpful for the development of the Phantom." Xiao Ran sighed, sometimes he really didn't want to expand with such frequent acquisitions or mergers, but he didn't have enough time to operate, so he had to do this: "It's just because of this reason that there is a shortage of Phantom's funds, so I'm afraid that if the acquisition fails, it will lose a lot!" When the time comes, if there is a chain effect! ”

Lin Qingxia thought about it carefully, and immediately smiled: "Don't lie to me, the world fund has developed into a big fund of 30 billion, what is there to be afraid of." When the time comes, they can be financed, and besides, doesn't Kinetic Energy control the two oil companies in Russia, those are very valuable! ”

Xiao Ran was stunned for a moment, scratched his head in embarrassment, he didn't expect Lin Qingxia to come up with all this so quickly: "No, the main thing is that I am a little nervous, and it will be difficult to explain for a while." In short, if this acquisition is successful, then we can be regarded as stepping on the first footprint in Hollywood! ”

"I can't help you, I'll wave the flag to you in Hong Kong, if you fail, it's a big deal to go back, Phantom is the largest entertainment media company in Asia!" Lin Qingxia didn't know whether to be angry or funny, her husband had experienced many ups and downs, and she couldn't imagine that she was still nervous about an acquisition.

Get back? Does it make sense? Xiao Ran shook his head slightly, it wasn't that he couldn't tolerate failure, he just couldn't tolerate failure at this best time. If he can successfully complete the acquisition at this time, then he can save billions of money, just like Sony.

It's just that at this time, for some reason, he remembered the two children, and smiled softly: "The children haven't rested yet, I want to talk to them!" ”

"Xiao Qing played crazy during the day, and now he has rested, but Xiao Ling'er hasn't rested yet." Lin Qingxia motioned to the nurse to bring Xiao Ling'er over, and then she hugged the child and said to Xiao Ran: "Here, what do you want to say?" ”

"Xiao Ling'er, how are you, do you want to be dad?" At this moment, Xiao Ran was filled with tenderness, as if he had seen Xiao Ling'er with his own eyes. Listening to the hoarse whining sound coming from the microphone, Xiao Ran smiled silently: "Take her to rest quickly, you can rest early!" ”

After hanging up the phone, he washed his face in the bathroom, looked at the still slightly dark skin in the mirror, and the mustache that was still the same, and the pair of bright eyes, and stayed silently for a moment, then came to the sofa and sat down, waiting for the arrival of the two.

It's not that we can't afford to lose this acquisition, but if we do, we lose the opportunity to allow the Phantom to expand rapidly in North America. There may be opportunities in the future, but that will inevitably take a lot of effort than today. The acquisition is not the ultimate goal, but a process, and the alliance with Lei Shidong is the goal, as for Columbia, Xiao Ran doesn't even want to pay attention to it, with those two fools here, it must be impossible to do anything, it is enough to arrange for the world to give those two fools a little sweetness.

Pyrok and Han Long came almost on their front and back feet, and seeing that the two of them had arrived, Xiao Ran stood up and walked around for a while, announcing the reason why he asked them to come over so late: "I want to buy Blockbuster!" ”

The two of them were shocked at the same time, especially Han Long. Han Long is obviously very aware that the company has just undergone frequent acquisitions, and now it is definitely a risk to acquire Blockbuster again. Although he has only been in the United States for three days, he is quite familiar with the American market and knows very well that Blockbuster is the world's largest video chain store, and it is definitely not easy to achieve an acquisition, and he doesn't even know if he can pass the official level in the United States.

Pyroc was even more secretly frightened, and after learning that the Phantom had acquired Universal, he immediately investigated the Phantom's information. He was shocked by the results of the investigation, the Phantom took control of the Power Group, and several of the Powerhouse Group's subsidiaries controlled Nokia, which had a strong track record in mobile phones, as well as two Russian oil companies, as well as electronics and telecommunications companies acquired in the United States.

Because the Phantom's control is strong, and there is no shortage of money to develop, it is very strict in the equity control of the subsidiary, except for the equity distributed to the staff and various high-level executives, it is basically controlled in the hands of the Phantom, perhaps it is better to say that it is controlled in the hands of Xiao Ran.

It's actually great to be able to get such a huge entertainment media empire as a new owner. However, Pyrok also knew that Phantom had made too many acquisitions recently, and he never expected that just after completing the acquisition of Universal, Xiao Ran would actually take the risk of launching another acquisition.

Of course, both Pyrok and Han Long knew that the Phantom was definitely qualified to initiate such an acquisition, and even if it was a loss, it would definitely not hurt the Phantom Empire, at most, it would be a short-term shortage of funds. But the Bank of China is already raising money to tide over the financial crisis for the Phantom at any time, and the Tianxia Fund is also secretly preparing to prevent the Phantom from being sniped, and even Wei Dongling is preparing to slowly sell Hathaway to get cash to survive the dangerous period.

However, they still didn't quite understand why Xiao Ran did this, they all understood what kind of wealth it would be if Blockbuster was controlled by the Phantom. But they didn't understand why Xiao Ran was in such a hurry!

Why is it so rushed? Xiao Ran knew that Lei Shidong's acquisition of Paramount was currently in a stalemate because it was sniped by his friend and rival. In history, Lei Shidong's means to break the deadlock was to buy Blockbuster, and after borrowing money, he increased the purchase price of Paramount, which was the acquisition.

So, Xiao Ran had to take this risk, as long as he could buy Blockbuster first, and then provide financing to Lei Shidong, so as to get Paramount's equity, Paramount would definitely be a heavyweight ally at that time.

In fact, this 10 billion is far from threatening the Phantom Empire, and if you can kill two birds with one stone, why not. Moreover, Xiao Ran definitely does not want to miss this turbulent period, during this time, in addition to Disney and Warner, the Seven Donkey Kongs have changed hands or other problems, which is definitely a rare opportunity.

"I'm going to spend 10 billion dollars on Universal, and you guys will complete this acquisition!" Xiao Ran finally stopped walking, and his eyes forced to look at the two of them: "Tomorrow, I will propose a goodwill acquisition to Blockbuster, and the purchase price will be 8.8 billion US dollars." Han Long, you are in charge of this acquisition, Pyrok, you assist him in completing this acquisition, and use your connections to lobby for official approval of the acquisition! ”

Han Long quickly understood what Xiao Ran meant, but Paolok had some doubts: "Then should the reorganization and reorganization of the world be stopped because of this?" That's not a wonderful thing! ”

"The reorganization can be handed over to your assistant to be in charge for the time being, I want to ......" Xiao Ran's eyes gradually became deep and bold: "I want this acquisition to be completed within ten days, and the contract will be signed!" ”

After the two left, Xiao Ran gave Ge Wenqiu a phone call. Ge Wenqiu has not made much progress in the United States in the past few years, and this guy has invested in about a dozen films, making a total profit of more than 200 million US dollars. Moreover, one of Ge Wenqiu's most important achievements is that with the full support of the head office, he has achieved a very good network in the American high society.

And this is what Xiao Ran wants to take advantage of, he needs the official approval of the United States for this acquisition. In the past few years, most of Phantom's acquisitions in the United States have been successful because of Ge Wenqiu's hard lobbying, is this time an exception?

Heroes emerge from troubled times, whether Xiao Ran can achieve the expected results in the current chaos in Hollywood is still unknown, at least he is working hard......

On his fourth day in the United States, Xiao Ran was in his room watching Disney's ABC television network, a news channel. Finally, the news he had been waiting for for a long time came, and the famous reporter on TV was holding a microphone that looked like a grenade with a wooden handle, and behind her was Han Long's figure.

This woman doesn't look very good-looking, and she doesn't know how to be famous, but at least what she says now is what Xiao Ran likes to hear: "The Phantom Group from the East has just completed the acquisition of Universal Pictures, and only a few days later, Universal proposed to Blockbuster this morning for $8.8 billion......"

This unfinalized deal obviously alarmed many people, and many reporters tried to interview Xiao Ran, even fools know that Universal will definitely not be able to come up with this money, and the boss behind the scenes is of course the Phantom Group who has just joined Universal. And Xiao Ran is at the Beverly Hills Hotel, if the reporter doesn't know how to come and ask, it would be really stupid.

However, Xiao Ran asked Huang Ling to refuse all interviews, at least he thought it was not appropriate to be interviewed today. The reporters quickly looked up the Phantom, and noticed that the Phantom had made a lot of acquisitions and mergers in the past four years, and they thought that "the Phantom Group is like a hungry shark, constantly looking for a target for annexation."

On the third day of the announcement, Xiao Ran thought that the time had come and accepted the invitation from N (I don't understand how American TV talk shows are done, don't laugh if you make mistakes).

After the famous female program host Lai Wei said hello to the audience, she introduced loudly: "Look at what guest we have invited this time, this is Mr. Xiao Ranxiao, chairman of the board of directors of Phantom Group from the East, let us welcome him together!" ”

Xiao Ran is not very accustomed to this kind of program, but he should follow the local customs. Since the American likes this set, then he chooses the one that the other party likes. So, he smiled and said to the rather large audience and camera: "Good evening, American audience." I'm honored to be here! ”

At this moment, Xiao Ran swept his eyes and saw several banners forming a sentence - "Chinese get out of Hollywood, it belongs to the Americans!" ”

After a pause, countless thoughts turned in my heart, speculating whether it was arranged by Warner, or was it the venting of some disgruntled local people? Before Lai Wei, Xiao Ran still said with a very cold smile: "Miss Lai Wei, have you seen it?" I think that's a funny thing. ”

Lai Wei didn't see the reason, but she was quite used to this kind of thing, but she could pretend not to see it. Seeing Xiao Ran ask like this, he had to turn his gaze and smiled: "Why does that make you feel funny, I think everyone must want to know!" ”

"Anyone familiar with American history knows that this place did not belong to the so-called Americans, so according to this theory. I want to ......" Xiao Ran smiled indifferently: "I think the local natives can also shout for the American political axe and all outsiders to get out of this land, what do you think?" Miss Lai Wei! ”

Lai Wei smiled reluctantly, thinking that this was really difficult to deal with, and immediately gave a look to the staff next to her, and then skillfully changed the topic, and hoped that Xiao Ran would not be entangled: "Mr. Xiao, you know that sometimes I am often shouted to get out of n, we always have to try to get used to this kind of thing!" ”
