Chapter 621: The Results of the Sweep
readx;
A country as large as the Soviet Union even militarily suppressed Europe and the United States at certain times. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 infoBut such a huge country has played itself to death because of economic reasons, so the power of capital, even the country, will be affected, and the strength of this force is known to everyone.
And Li Mingbao put his industry in front of others in a generous way, and those people will naturally calculate the gains and losses of interests. At that time, Li Mingbao believes that not many people will be directly interested in him, unless Murdoch and they are guarding and stealing. And if they really want to behave like this, the money that Li Mingbao lent them is not a dry meal, and they will be uncomfortable when the time comes. So now even if Li Mingbao discloses his cash strength, ordinary people will definitely not be interested in him anymore, not ordinary people, Li Mingbao's current capital is not enough to make them tempted.
This is the real reason why Li Mingbao will ask PricewaterhouseCoopers to help him investigate, there are not too many secret companies, there will be no leaks, all Li Mingbao's secrets are hidden in his own mind, and what others see will always be appearances.
In less than a month, PwC completed the task, and Li Mingbao also received a call from Mary.
"Boss, the results of this inventory, in general, are still relatively optimistic, but unfortunately there are some moths that cannot be avoided, here, I apologize to the boss, I didn't manage the company well, I really didn't expect them to be so bold, actually made such an exaggerated thing, just over a year, it caused so much damage, it was my management is not in place." Mary rarely showed a depressed tone in front of Li Mingbao.
"It's not your fault, the reason why the current situation has formed, in fact, to a certain extent, is the result of my indulgence. After all, at the beginning, I positioned DreamWorks as just a cash cow, and I needed to maximize the benefits of DreamWorks in the shortest possible time.
Those people are of course very greedy, but after all, their ability to do things is still quite good. If they didn't have a brilliant brain, they wouldn't have escaped the company's supervision, and those lawyers and financial personnel were not for nothing, and they were able to make so many names under their noses, which could have proved that they were indeed elites, but unfortunately their hearts were too greedy, and they finally came to such a point.
In fact, the losses are not too big for our company, and the overall losses are about two or three million dollars, which is completely insignificant compared to their value. Of course, since they have reached out, they naturally have to teach them a lesson, and my money is not so easy to take.
If it was before, forget it, but now that the positioning of DreamWorks has changed essentially, people like them who are more radical and intelligent are not so suitable for their current work, so let the legal department of our company talk to them and recover their losses, then they will be punished lightly, after all, they are also people who have made meritorious contributions, and they can't be too harsh on them. However, if the losses cannot be recovered, they will pay the price of at least double as much as they have harmed our interests, otherwise they will not have a deterrent effect. Li Mingbao has some compassion for others.
Of course, for those who have made mistakes, Li Mingbao's decision, even if it is not really kind, compared to the worst treatment, although this treatment is better, but it is not much better, especially those who can't pay the money, they will definitely have a long time in the future, and will help Li Mingbao work for nothing to pay off his debts. But after all, Li Mingbao's side is still quite merciful, at least he didn't send them to prison, so that their career will really never be remembered again, and being as private as it is now is a better result for them, at least Li Mingbao didn't smash their jobs.
In fact, since the establishment of DreamWorks, it has only allowed those guys to swallow more than two hundred and less than three million dollars in funds, and Li Mingbao is already quite surprised. Not surprised at how greedy those people are, but surprised at how good their conduct is what they imagined. Li Mingbao thought that PricewaterhouseCoopers would at least find out tens of millions of dollars in losses, but it was only less than three million losses, which was definitely an accident.
Of course, Li Mingbao himself doesn't want to think about it, he has always regarded the value of the dollar in later generations as the value of the dollar now. The value of two or three million dollars in these years is actually not much different from the value of tens of millions of dollars in the later world. If it really makes people swallow tens of millions of dollars of capital, in exchange for future generations, it can at least be worth hundreds of millions. If those guys really swallowed so much money, they might have money to take and not spend it.
These elites who mix in the circle know how much money will pay. If they really swallowed tens of millions of dollars, they were completely joking with their lives. Some people will die for money, but this does not mean that those Hollywood elites will also have such thoughts, unless they are desperate, under normal circumstances, they will leave themselves a way back, money is important, but their own life is also important, if their life is gone, they still have money to use, and they are not those who have no way to make money at all, and they can enjoy the treatment that they could not enjoy at all before when they get money. Things that cost too much, they won't do yet. In addition, they also know what kind of temper Li Mingbao's boss is, and it doesn't matter if they make a big deal in general, if something big happens, they don't have to live. Here in the United States, there are 10,000 ways to make you die without knowing it.
Someone who can work happily with Twentieth Century Fox is the kind of person who doesn't have the ability? Everybody understands it. And Li Mingbao did not react too violently after seeing such a loss, and their reasoning was not a complete waste, of course, if it weren't for Li Mingbao's outstanding contribution to the development of DreamWorks, even if they took Li Mingbao 500,000 US dollars, Li Mingbao could make them unlucky for a lifetime, not what kind of person can take money from Li Mingbao without too much loss, at least those wastes will not be treated preferentially here by Li Mingbao.
Li Mingbao didn't want to dwell too much on the issue of loss, after all, Mary is also a face-saving person, if she is really entangled in this matter, maybe Mary will have concerns about doing things in the future, then it is not something Li Mingbao wants to see. For the sake of some ordinary people, people like Mary were abolished, and Li Mingbao was not so stupid.
"All right, Mary, don't blame yourself. In fact, in my opinion, you have done well enough, after all, no one will be perfect, I handed over DreamWorks to you, you can do DreamWorks to this extent, it has surprised me very much, you can manage DreamWorks well, it is not easy for you. There are loopholes in the future, and some people who are too smart want to take advantage of the loopholes, even I can't avoid them.
Instead of dwelling on this issue, let's talk about other things, such as how the TV production companies reacted after this cleanup. Compared with the business over there, the profit of the film company is a small matter, and that side is the focus, if you are not really familiar with the production of TV programs, I will transfer you to be the general manager.
After all, I fully recognize your ability. If you like new challenges, you can spend your free time checking out what's going on over there and getting started. After all, the development potential over there is not comparable to DreamWorks Films. If you need it, I can arrange a position for you as a deputy general manager over there, and the profits of the film company, at least for a few years, will not change much, but on the side of the TV production company, there will definitely be a blowout in a few years.
It's not just my need, it's John's need, it's Murdoch's need, and all three of us have great expectations for DreamWorks Productions, and if you can get a good answer in this company, maybe you will have a good chance of working at News Corp. in the future, and you will have a good position.
I know you like a challenge, and a big force like News Corp. definitely has plenty of room for you to play, so you can do it yourself, and as long as the company doesn't have problems, you can move around, and if necessary, you can take more shares in DreamWorks. Li Mingbao said to Mary sincerely.
If it is said that the development of DreamWorks is divided into several stages, then Li Mingbao can basically divide the development of DreamWorks into two eras. One is the era of Jiang Zhiqiang, Jiang Zhiqiang's ability is very good, otherwise Li Mingbao would not have poached him from Hong Kong to Hollywood and let him create DreamWorks.
But Jiang Zhiqiang's ability, after all, still has some limitations, coupled with his disadvantage as a non-local, so Jiang Zhiqiang's biggest contribution to DreamWorks is to lay a foundation, a solid foundation. At least 60% of the structure and personnel on the DreamWorks side are the foundation laid by Jiang Zhiqiang at the beginning, and this ability is enough to show how far Jiang Zhiqiang's strength has reached.
But with the foundation, if you want to develop, it is not so easy, in the era of Jiang Zhiqiang, although the profitability of DreamWorks is relatively good, but after Mary took over, it is completely two concepts. After Jiang Zhiqiang laid a good foundation, Mary directly let the profitability and strength of DreamWorks begin to grow, which is not according to the probability of growth of tens of percent, but according to the probability of growth of several hundred percent, plus Mary resolutely got some powerful people into DreamWorks, whether it is from experience or connections, it is not something that Jiang Zhiqiang's era can explain. Jiang Zhiqiang's contribution to DreamWorks is the cornerstone, and Mary's contribution lies in leapfrogging development.
For such capable people, no matter which boss they are, they will not ignore their abilities, Jiang Zhiqiang is now being brought to the mainland by Li Mingbao to enjoy happiness and take charge of the career of the cinema chain, and Mary's side, Li Mingbao also hopes to give her a broad space for growth.
