Ever since Jerry and Robert Soros teamed up to dig Howard Stringer from CBS to DreamWorks, Howard Stringer's life has been very fulfilling. yes~ so full that he wants to die. There's never a time when you're not busy! It's only three groups now, but in the future, if you join Marvel Comics, Columbia, and MGM...... Blabla, how are you going to live these days? When I think about it, Howard Stringer misses his days at CBS, when he was just a reporter, a producer, and a small CEO. Now, he's in charge of the board. Today is DreamWorks, tomorrow is ABC, the day after tomorrow is Pixar, and every day there are always different things to discuss and need to be reviewed and signed.

An annual salary of two million dollars and a 5% stake in the group are really not easy to get.

And on this day, when he saw the brother pair of Jerry and Robert Soros again, Howard Stringer got another "good news".

"What? You put me in control of Sony America (including the original Columbia Films and the original Columbia Records)? ”

Jerry nodded.

"When did the group acquire Sony America? As the chairman of the board, how did I not know? ”

Robert and Jerry looked at each other, "Jerry, you're going to explain?" ”

Jerry nodded.

"Just let you dominate Sony America as CEO. The Group does not currently acquire Jihua from Sony USA. ”

"What's going on?" Just dominating Sony America as CEO? Howard Stringer suddenly didn't understand.

"Haven't you been complaining that the group doesn't have a cinema system like Columbia? So, when I was in Japan, I communicated with Sony, and you will lead Sony America and lead Sony America out of the loss crisis, and in return, you can not only receive a salary from Sony America, but DreamWorks can also use Sony America's 820 theater system with the most favorable theater sharing plan. ”

On film rights and music rights. Aiko Mitsui still held on to her mouth, but she made another concession on the plan for the theater split, but even so, Jerry thought it was enough. Is it really expected that DreamWorks will own the film rights and music rights to Sony America without spending a penny and just investing Howard Stringer's manpower? That's just too whimsical, and Aiko Mitsui isn't stupid enough yet. All she wants is to take advantage of favors and take a ride! Japan's United Credit Bank helped JR Investment force back ING, but it finally stopped at the door, not because Aiko Mitsui was stupid and had a lot of money and did not see the potential of the Bank of Bahrain. It is not because she was fascinated by the Japanese national treasure and CHUN-QING was overflowing, but because Mitsui & Co. opened up the Chinese market at this point in time: Mitsui & Co. (China-China) was established in Beijing, and together with Nippon Steel, Bao-Steel Group, and Nan-Tong Investment Management Center, "Nan-Tongbao-Steel Shin-Nippon Steel Co., Ltd." (abbreviated as Nantong Baoxin). As Mitsui & Co.'s only source of funds, Japan's United Credit Bank had to put away its fangs on the Bank of Bahrain. The Bank of Bahrain itself has a lot of debt, although in the long run, the benefits of this old bank are far greater than the current investment, but compared to the layout of Mitsui & Co. Aiko Mitsui still wisely chose to stop.

After the expiration of Kawasaki Steel's VAM, steel futures, and cement futures contracts in December 1993, JR Investment purchased a 29% stake in Kawasaki Steel's board of directors from within the board of directors of Kawasaki Steel, plus a 24% stake that had already been held by JR Investment. JR Investment completed a full stake in Kawasaki Steel, one of the five largest steel companies. After that, JR Investment, Kawasaki Steel, Anshan Iron and Steel, and Fujian-Jianjian Special Administrative Region Investment Management Center jointly invested in the establishment of "Fujian-Jian-An-Shan-Chuan-Qi Iron Co., Ltd." (referred to as Fujian Anqi), because of the special financial and policy assistance provided by the People's Republic of China-State Council-Yuan to Fujian-Jian-Special Economic Zone, Fujian Anqi's development momentum is extremely rapid.

Shanghai-Bao-Steel has been left far behind!

Mitsui, which had been coveting the Chinese market, once opened the Chinese market. Where will a minute and a second of time be wasted.

As for the Bank of Bahrain? Isn't there still JR Investment chasing after you? Since this is the case, just give him a favor and find a chance to come back.

Aiko Mitsui is not stupid!

"That's it?" Howard had a bitter look on his face.

"What? Not enough? Jerry smiled at Howard's expression. I've got another lucrative job for you, shouldn't you treat us to a big meal?" ”

"Beverly's most haode restaurant~" Robert shouted with his hand raised.

"Hey~ You're the god of Wall Street, do you still care about such a little money?" Howard said dissatisfied.

"That's different, my money is exploited by my wife, but your money is your own. What's more, if you're a miser, you'll taste much better no matter what. Robert raised his eyebrows, a little frowning.

"Do you need me to sue Cindy?" Robert Soros's wife is strictly controlled in his circle, and everyone knows it, but there is no way, who makes Miss Cindy Crawford beautiful and capable? The ratings of the American Supermodel Contest have always been high, and now, like American idols, they have become ABC's cleaning up. The C&C brand and the modeling agency derived from ANTM are also under her management, and they are thriving in the fashion circle. Especially in the past two years, C&C has set off a casual mix and match style and C&C luxury bags in the whole shijie. Nowadays, women scream wildly when they see bags with C&C charms. Such a beautiful, sexy and capable woman has the capital to make Robert Soros a strict wife, even if he has the title of a god on his head. Of course, this also became a way for everyone to laugh at Robert.

"She won't believe it." Robert said with a straight face.

"Hey~Cindy!" Howard made a phone call.

"Oh~ It's Howard?" Jerry took the phone.

"Robert stole again."

"Got it, let him sleep on the floor at night."

"You two guys." Robert raised his fist in exasperation.

"Alright, let's get down to business. Howard, I mean to make you the CEO of Sony America. In addition to the 820 theater system, I hope you can use your ability to bring Sony America back to life. ”

"If you let me break it, I wouldn't have any problem. After all, Sony America is one of the competitors in DreamWorks, but you asked me to save it? I'm a little confused. ”

Jerry smiled, "Do you know the Titanic that DreamWorks invested?" ”

Howard nodded, as the chairman of the group's board of directors, he naturally knew that the film with the largest investment in film history was announced, and a total investment of 400 million US dollars was announced. If it were his DreamWorks team, he would never have nodded his head to James Cameron's request, and Howard couldn't imagine what the set tyrant would spend his $400 million total investment on. With a total investment of 400 million US dollars, if the movie is successful, it is easy to say, but if it is like "Future Water Shijie", a large amount of investment, and in the end the box office is dismal, and the film company may be dragged directly into the quagmire. He had previously accused Robert Soros of not treating JR's investment money as money, but Robert Soros laughed off such accusations and told Howard that JR might invest more. When Howard heard this, he looked at Robert like a monster, and said bluntly, crazy, this guy is completely crazy.

"JR's investment in "Titanic" was a complete accident, such as director James Cameron's direct investment in the investment company, such a thing is estimated to not happen in the future. After all, investment companies have their own mainstream business, and investing in movies will only be a matter for film companies. However, after "Future Water Shijie" and "Titanic", the investment amount of future films will be higher and higher, and how to share investment risks under the premise of not being able to reduce investment costs is a future topic. ”

"You mean we're going to train Sony as our risk community?"

"That's what it means. After all, DreamWorks will not only make literary films, commercial films, but also the main source of future profits. Thinking about DreamWorks' current "Blood in the Pacific", 100 million dollars per episode, it's not that I'm worried about the appeal of director Spielberg, but that in the future, collaboration between film companies is the general trend, and I think we need an alliance to share the risks. Sony, it would be a good choice. ”

Howard smiled, "Unexpectedly, you think about it a lot, and I, the chairman of the board, seem to have been derelict in my duties!" ”

"You've done a pretty good job of running ABC, DreamWorks and Pixar where they are now."

"It's just DreamWorks, ABC and Pixar have their own well-established managers, and the most I can do is sign and check on the progress of the project." Howard was given a rare pause.

"Oh~ So, your burden is not heavy enough now. Jerry, you see, I'm right, right? Robert reached out his fist and touched Jerry.

"Hey~" Howard shouted in protest.

"I'll fight Sony for an annual salary. Or $200W? ”

Howard, who protested, immediately touched his chin, "The savior is more than $200W." ”

"Cut~" Jerry and Robert gestured their middle fingers at Howard together. (To be continued......)
