The plane landed in Los Angeles, and Xu Guanwula's family went to the hotel.

Because of Xiao Simo's oil bottle, everything has to be cautious.

Xiao Simo didn't make much trouble on the plane, because of the high altitude and low pressure, so he didn't sleep all the time, and was held and teased by the nanny, mother, and father in turn, making him happy.

To be honest, Xu Guanwu didn't like children very much before, mainly because children were a little too noisy, either crying or screaming, or dirty all day long, which made him feel unbearable when he saw it.

But after he had a child, these things that he used to hate basically became advantages in his eyes. There is a cry to make it easy to judge what he really wants, whether he wants to feed, or to shush, or to change diapers, etc. It is the sound of the voice that shows his vitality. The dirty milk doll is actually quite cute, especially the big innocent eyes blinking and blinking, which makes people's hearts melt.

Now after getting off the plane, from the moment he got in the car, Xiao Simo has begun to close his eyes and take a nap. Looking at the way his little head looked little by little, Xu Guanwu couldn't help but be happy.

"This stinky boy didn't sleep on the plane and tossed us for more than ten hours. Now I sleep so soundly. Xu Guanwu looked at his son and smiled.

"My son is probably so excited because it's the first time I've taken a plane." Zhao Yazhi smiled and said, "It's okay, he's asleep now, so as not to disturb our rest." As she spoke, Zhao Yazhi yawned and said.

"Well, if you're sleepy, go to sleep. I'll call you when I get to the hotel. Xu Guanwu smiled.

Zhao Yazhi nodded. Leaned his head on Xu Guanwu's shoulder. In a moment, I was already asleep.

She used to stay up late to film, so she has developed the magic of being able to fall asleep while standing and fall asleep with her eyes closed for three seconds.

Xu Guanwu was holding his son in his arms, leaning on his wife by his side, feeling that life was in the world, and it was not in vain to go through a life.

……

stayed at the Hilton Hotel that night, and the next day, Xu Guanwu received a call from Lei Shidong.

"Xu. How are you now? Lei Shidong laughed, "How is it, am I the first friend to call you?" ”

"yes, yes!" Xu Guanwu said with a smile, "Okay, I'll go to see you later, so don't rush me anymore." ”

"Okay, then I'll wait for you." Lei Shidong smiled and said without any disguise.

Xu Guanwu also smiled, and then hung up the phone.

Every time I come to the United States. Lei Shidong is a must-see. On the one hand, Lei Shidong needs Xu Guanwu's guidance in business, and on the other hand, Xu Guanwu hopes to use Lei Shidong. Entered the U.S. cable TV market.

"Whoever called so early to see woke up our son." Zhao Yazhi hugged Xiao Simo while gently patting him, and said to Xu Guanwu with a displeased face.

"Isn't it Lei Shidong, urging me to go over and talk to him about things." Xu Guanwu smiled and said, "Wait a minute, I'll go to the National Entertainment Company, if you want to go shopping, go by yourself first." ”

"Well, that's all there is to it." Zhao Yazhi knew that Xu Guanwu still had a lot of things to do, and she no longer obstructed at the moment, "When you are done one day, you can accompany our mother and son." ”

"Don't worry, I'll get it done as soon as possible." Xu Guanwu walked over and gently kissed his wife and son on the cheeks and said, "Okay, let's go downstairs to eat." My son is already full, and my father is still hungry. ”

"Talking nonsense." Zhao Yazhi's face flushed, and she gently slapped Xu Guanwu and said.

……

After eating, Xu Guanwu went to the National Entertainment Company to find Lei Shidong, and Zhao Yazhi took her son to go shopping. I haven't been to Los Angeles for more than two years, and I want to die of those famous brand stores. In addition, Xu Guanwu made a special exception this time and allowed her to buy a lot, so naturally she had to buy it happily this time.

Just when Zhao Yazhi was frantically sweeping the goods, Xu Guanwu had already come to the National Entertainment Company.

As soon as they met, Lei Shidong was still so enthusiastic, and he almost suffocated Xu Guanwu by hugging him fiercely.

"Okay, okay, don't be so enthusiastic next time, I think you've broken a few ribs." Xu Guanwu said with a smile.

"You should exercise more, I see that I am sixty years old now, but my physique is stronger than yours. You're much younger than me, but you're nowhere near as strong as me. Lei Shidong smiled and put on a toned posture, "I now exercise every day, running, swimming, equestrian, golf, tennis...... You should also learn from me, otherwise your body will collapse early. ”

"Yes," Xu Guanwu nodded, "I think there will be time to do sports in the future." ”

"Well, how do you say that? Didn't you have time before? Lei Shidong couldn't help but ask suspiciously.

"I used to have to go to work and be busy with things. You won't have to worry so much in the future. Xu Guanwu smiled.

"For what?!" Lei Shidong asked suspiciously, "You seem to have something to say?" ”

"That's right, I'm going to take a back seat when I go back." Xu Guanwu grinned.

"What?!" Lei Shidong looked at Xu Guanwu in surprise, with an incredulous expression, "How can you have this idea, Xu?" Now is the time when you are young, and you should work hard. If you quit now, it's probably too early. ”

"I'm different from you, you are a cow, you are born with a bullish temper, and you have to work hard until you die." Xu Guanwu smiled and said, "I don't have such a big ambition myself, and the money I earn now is already beyond my ability, so I want to take a back seat and do what I want to do." ”

"Then what do you want to do, can you make money, if you can, count me in it." Lei Shidong said with a smile.

"Ha Luha, I have long asked you to invest with me, you are always afraid of losing money. What's the matter, now that you've changed your personality? Xu Guanwu asked with a smile.

Lei Shidong couldn't help but scratch his head when he heard him say this, "I didn't know that Ludao High-tech could make so much money, and your Apple computer company seems to be doing an IPO evaluation now." I heard that the market capitalization could exceed a billion dollars. As far as I know, you've invested less than $30 million in total. Now it can be exchanged for at least nearly half a billion dollars in assets. Naturally, I didn't want to miss out on such a big profit. ”

Xu Guanwu couldn't help but smile when he heard this, "Okay, I'll be the first to tell you if there are good projects in the future." By the way, what's going on with your cable TV station now? ”

"It's not bad, I've now acquired a couple of cable stations in Los Angeles, and now I'm the largest cable provider in Los Angeles, with half a million households in Los Angeles subscribing to my program." Lei Shidong said with a smile, "Recently, I am planning to expand my business beyond Los Angeles. My dream is to become the largest cable provider in the United States. ”

"I'm sure your dream will come true." Xu Guanwu smiled and said, "I think if you want to develop a cable TV station as soon as possible, the fastest way is undoubtedly to merge and merge." ”

"Yes, it's the same thing I thought, it's just that the National Entertainment Company can provide too little money, and the bank hasn't been very active in lending me lately." Lei Shidong said helplessly.

Xu Guanwu nodded, knowing that Lei Shidong adopted a snowball model of loan acquisition, and then the acquired TV station as collateral and refinancing, and then acquisition and remortgage and refinancing. As long as the bank is willing to lend to him all the time, he can continue to snowball. Later, he became the leader of the cable television industry in the United States.

Unfortunately, the Vietnam War brought down the U.S. economy, and now the U.S. is implementing monetary austerity. It is much more difficult to get a loan than before. In addition, the value of the cable TV industry has not yet been highlighted, especially the return on profitability does not seem to be too optimistic, so the support of the bank for Lei Shidong is not large.

Lei Shidong's "snowballing" business model ran aground, which was undoubtedly a very heavy blow to him who dreamed of becoming a leader in the American cable television industry. He was able to foresee the future of what must be the world of cable television, because people's preferences are becoming more and more self-contained, as can be seen in the movies shown in the National Entertainment Theater. Many works that were not popular in the past are now admired by many people. This shows that everyone's taste for entertainment has changed.

People crave TV programs that are more in line with their tastes, so that public television stations like ABC and NBC are open to the public, and the natural content is trying to suit the tastes of most people. It's like a certain Spring Festival Gala that is broadcast every year, claiming to satisfy most people's tastes, but in fact, it always attracts more criticism.

Lei Shidong saw that public television could no longer satisfy people's discerning tastes, so he planned to enter the cable TV industry, but those bankers were not as far-reaching as he saw, so he repeatedly vetoed his merger and acquisition plan, which made Lei Shidong feel very helpless.

"Okay, how about you spin off the cable TV industry from the National Entertainment Company, and then I'll inject some of the capital to help you fulfill this ideal?" Xu Guanwu asked with a smile.

Lei Shidong glanced at him, "You also have the idea of entering the cable TV station?" ”

Xu Guanwu nodded, "If I were an American citizen, I would set up my own company to buy the operation of the TV station." But it's a pity that my current status as a foreigner makes it difficult for me to invest in the field of radio and television, so I want to form an alliance with you. ”

"Well, how to solve the problem of the new company's shares?" Lei Shidong hesitated and asked.

He is also a very controlling person, and he does not want to lose the control of the company because of this.

"You account for fifty percent of one, I account for four percent of nine, or the same as before, no one is allowed to dilute the other party's shares, I only put forward opinions on the company's operation, whether you listen to it or not." Xu Guanwu thought for a while.

Lei Shidong smiled, "That's it, how much can you give me?" He asked with a snarl of urgency.

Xu Guanwu smiled, "What is the market value of these TV stations now?" ”

"Well, maybe fifty or sixty million dollars." Lei Shidong thought about it and doubled his market value. In fact, he didn't spend a total of $30 million on the acquisition of those TV stations. After all, they are all relatively small TV stations, and they are all in a state of loss.

"It's good if you think about it for 60 million dollars," Xu Guanwu thought for a while, "I'll go back and give you 60 million dollars, and then help you get a loan from the bank as a guarantee, so that our cable TV network can be established." ”

"Really?! That's great. Lei Shidong shouted happily, looking like he had picked up a gold ingot. In fact, he really picked up the gold ingot, but he didn't expect Xu Guanwu to not even return the price, and directly paid 60 million US dollars to him.

"Are the Chinese so arrogant?" Lei Shidong couldn't help but guess.

Xu Guanwu was also happy to close his mouth on the sidelines, and he could get half of Viacom's equity for only 60 million US dollars, where to find such a profitable deal? Therefore, the reborn has long been dominant, and such a large company with a market value of 100 billion US dollars can now be bought for only 60 million, which is cheaper than the cabbage in the vegetable market.

Xu Guanwu and Lei Shidong glanced at each other, and the two foxes, one big and one small, were laughing very happily. (To be continued......)
