But before that, MGM, which had already missed the opportunity, was already bankrupt, just waiting for someone to be willing to make a bid to buy them. And this person was basically determined to be DreamWorks, but what he didn't expect was that once his shape changed drastically, he actually turned over MGM Salted Fish.

But no one knows how this change came about. Rumors are flying all over the industry, so Alex doesn't know which one is true and which one is false.

"I heard that MGM received capital injection from the DuPont consortium to get rid of the fate of being dismembered and bankrupt!"

"But I heard that it was a foreign injection of funds, and how did it become the DuPont consortium?"

"Don't guess, it must be the Rockefeller family, only if they make a move, they can save MGM back!"

"DreamWorks thought it could swallow MGM, but it turned out to be ......"

In any case, DreamWorks made a mistake this time, and if it knew that it was so, it should have accepted MGM's offer before it went bankrupt, and it didn't matter if the price was higher.

Now DreamWorks is like a gluttonous beast that wants to swallow its prey in one bite, but someone rescues the target prey from its mouth and almost bites its teeth out.

It is indeed not an exaggeration to compare DreamWorks to a monster, with the efforts of Alex, Morse and others, the DreamWorks exhibition is getting faster and faster, and its influence in Hollywood is also increasing. Due to this period, the market was sluggish, and Hollywood studios did not perform well, but DreamWorks bucked the trend and sent tens of millions or even hundreds of millions of box office masterpieces one after another.

Not to mention "The Sound of Music", which broke the all-time box office record and was Alex's first film. Its merchandise is still making money for DreamWorks, and the film's musicals alone make millions of dollars a year.

The recent "Planet of the Apes" series, although Alex only made the first two. But this has already been able to determine the historical status of this series of films. It is not only a sci-fi movie with a box office of over 100 million, but also gave birth to a group of "ape fans".

These crazy fans are so interested in the world depicted in the film that they can't believe that the merch of the film is too crazy to believe, and the place where the film was shot has become a great place for them to travel.

The ape city that Alex had built at the beginning has now become a local tourist attraction. A large number of tourists come to visit every week.

The place is still in use today, and the last few Anthropo series films shot by Morris have made those "Anthropo fans" excited, and they have asked to play an extra, even the faceless orangutans are scrambling.

The first ape series of movies "Planet of the Apes" has been drawn, but the second "Lost Planet of the Apes" will be released soon after. Followed by the east wind of the previous movie. With fanatical fans as the main body, it even broke through the first part of the box office, and the North American box office directly exceeded 100 million, according to the analysis of experts, this movie should still be able to win tens of millions of box office.

In front of the powerful ape series of movies, other film companies can only drool on the sidelines when their movies are released. will try their best to avoid DreamWorks movies to avoid unnecessary losses. If someone says they want to suppress DreamWorks, it's a fool's dream, and there's definitely no chance of attacking head-on, unless they can stick a knife in the back.

The enemy on the movie side didn't dare to attack, and the TV station has already reversed it, and it is estimated that nBc and Disney will feel very depressed. cpT has teamed up with aRk to fight back. Looks like IBm is going to be depressed for a while. The SCC company is even more stable, with the Hughes Group standing behind, I'm afraid those people don't dare to mess around.

The record company can't be taken care of for the time being, but with such a deep foundation, even if they want to do it, it is not so easy. Alex will also see the opportunity and take the time to help, it shouldn't be a big problem.

As for Trans Aeronau, that's a difficult problem, Pan Am and Trans Air are rivals. At the beginning, Pan Am Airways, in order to monopolize the American aviation market, did not hesitate to tear up the face with billionaire Hughes. even secretly slandered Hughes for embezzling government research funds, and finally went to court.

A few years ago, Pan Am continued to make moves, almost checkmate Hughes, and it just happened to make Alex a fisherman. Take the opportunity to get your hands on a global airline. At that time, this matter was quite big, and even the Rockefeller consortium was ready to take the opportunity to take Hughes Tools Company.

It's not surprising that Pan Am is jumping out to make trouble. The question is, who is behind it, the Rockefellers? Or is it the Morgan family, the Boston consortium, or some other consortium?

If you only look at the identity of the shareholders, these families don't seem to have anything to do with Pan Am, but from the analysis of Hughes's experience and Alex's cognition, the company is definitely not simple. Those family consortia that have been integrated into all fields of the United States are the most dangerous enemies, and they are also the invisible enemies.

As for the Carpenter family, the Worthon family, the Disney family, etc., they are still at the top of the world, and there is still an insurmountable distance from the top of the real pyramid.

Strange to say, just as Alex was going to study the problems in the field of aviation, there was a big event here!

"What? Pan Am cut 2o% across the board? Or even a price reduction of up to 4o% for some lines? ”

When Alex heard the news, his first thought was that the president of Pan Am was crazy. The second thought is, should TWA follow suit with the price cut?

Although there are relevant regulations in the U.S. aviation market that discourage unfair competition, there are also certain regulations on issues such as fares. Pan Am, however, did not exceed that rule, but adopted a preferential strategy, buying more and getting more discounts. The so-called price reduction is only for those routes that overlap with global airlines, and a certain discount is made.

What's even worse is that Pan Am's discounts seem to be only aimed at global airlines, and they want to use all kinds of means to attract customers of global airlines.

After such a serious matter, Alex could only stop what he was doing first and rush to the high-level meeting of Global Airlines. The Carpenter family now owns more than 80 percent of the shares of TWA. It can be said that TWA is the Carpenter family.

In the conference room, Alex didn't say anything immediately, but first listened to other executives and partners.

As for Pan Am's actions, some people suggest that they talk to each other first. Let's see if we can reach a consensus. However, few people support this opinion, and everyone here knows how much difference their company has with each other, and the grievances have long been resolved.

Some people also follow the price reduction, and the other party will reduce the price as much as the other party drops. At the very least, make sure you don't lose too many customers. So as not to occupy the market share by the other party at that time.

This opinion is supported by most people, who have not encountered similar things before. Usually they fight each other, until one side can no longer support it, and then they will send people to negotiate and finally determine what the price of each of those routes is.

"If the other party wants to fight, we will fight! Who's afraid of whom! ”

"yes. At this time, you must not retreat, you must resist to the end! ”

"We're going to see how much the other party is prepared to lose!"

……

No matter how excited those people were, Alex still didn't say a word, silently watching them speak. It wasn't until someone noticed that the atmosphere was wrong that the sound of the conference room gradually stopped, and finally it reached the point where a pin drop could be heard.

After dozens of seconds, someone finally spoke, "Of course." The final plan will have to be decided by Mr. Carpenter......"

Fight a price war with each other?

If nothing else had happened, Alex might have chosen to do so. But it was obviously a hole dug by someone else, and he didn't want to close his eyes and jump into it.

Just now, after going through the information of Pan Am Airlines in his heart, he planned to respond to all changes with the same, and the other party wanted to fight a price war, so he couldn't let them get their wish.

"We keep the original price!"

Alex figured it out and said his decision word by word. At the same time, it was decided to strengthen the safety measures and service training of global airlines, he said: "We must provide the best service to our passengers and ensure that every passenger can fly safely and comfortably, whether it is home or traveling. Only safety and comfort are paramount. ”

"As for the price...... We still have to maintain the original price, this must not be reduced! ”

Can't reduce the price? That means don't fight Pan Am?

The executives of World Airlines present were a little surprised by Alex's decision, after all, they all knew that the Carpenter family had a close relationship with the Hughes Group, and Hughes hated Pan American Airlines. Pan Am is an old rival of Trans Bahn Airlines.

With so many factors accumulating, I'm afraid most people will rise to the challenge, and they won't succeed if they don't fight to the death.

"That's it, you are also a partner of Trans Aeronau, since you don't want to be crushed by Pan Am, you need to strengthen our safety and service! Only then will we be able to beat Pan Am and have the last laugh! ”

Alex's words made the people present very confused, and it sounded like they meant that as long as they concentrated on cultivating their internal strength, they could win without taking the initiative to attack.

Is there something inside that can't be done?

These high-level officials were interested in asking, but seeing that Alex didn't want to explain further, they didn't continue to ask. I had to follow Alex's instructions to let the people below pay attention to safety and strengthen the service attitude, etc.

As for the price, naturally it has not been changed.

Alex isn't very sure if he's going to win, but it's hard to talk about this kind of thing, and sometimes things really go in the direction he wants. He couldn't put his thoughts into words, and if he did, someone might sue Pan Am the next day, and his strategy would probably be ineffective.

Now, he can only wait patiently, he is already planning to hold on, as long as the operating loss is not too strict, he will not follow the rhythm of the other party to reduce the price.
