Hollywood during the Christmas schedule is still full of gunsmoke and artillery fire.

But under this fire, Sony, Lionsgate, as well as Emperor Gate and Shinkansen companies, did not focus on the box office, on the contrary, they were all watching the movements of MGM.

The lobbyists and leaders of these companies go to MGM's headquarters every few days, and they do it secretly and secretly; Everyone is full of greed for one-third of MGM's treasury, hoping to use their carefully researched offer to acquire these glittering treasures.

Among them, the most powerful are Sony and Lionsgate. The two companies hired several Wall Street financial professionals to check each other's terms and prices in order to get the quote in one fell swoop.

In the end, Sony's proposed purchase price was $450 million, and Lionsgate's was $430 million, and the two companies were not much different, so they both hoped to move MGM and win the first place.

It was December 31, 2000.

With the arrival of the new year, the whole United States is in a state of jubilant euphoria, and at this time, there are still three hours before US President Clinton officially steps down.

Originally, everyone thought that there would be three hours of calm, but they were stunned by one thing.

Dear US President Clinton, within three hours before he left office at the end of his term, he actually signed a document to directly pardon 140 people!

As soon as this news came out, it immediately caused a lot of controversy. This amnesty document includes his younger brother (poison ~ product crime), Marco. Ricky (tax evasion), and several people who paid $200,000 to Hillary's brother Hugh. Rodin's drug dealer ~ trafficker and fraudster.

For a time, public opinion was in an uproar. Everyone was stunned by such a sudden event. And the Republican bigwigs, the opposition party in the United States, are even more furious. Vowed to appoint a special prosecutor to investigate the "amnesty" incident in the future.

However, it was too late to help.

Ten minutes after the "Amnesty Gate" happened, Yi Feiyang's Dream Entertainment Company received a call from MGM's behind-the-scenes gambling king Corkerian, and MGM was willing to officially transfer one-third of the library at a price of 300 million US dollars!

Yi Feiyang smiled!

The others were stunned!

They don't understand, what the hell is this for?!

Only Yi Feiyang clearly knows how many of the 140 people in Clinton's amnesty are cronies or friends of gambling king Corkrian!

……

The United States in 2001 appeared to be thriving. It's just that the continued downturn in the stock market has affected the mood of many people.

The President of the United States has officially changed.

The war in Afghanistan is mired in the quagmire.

and Microsoft's release of new windows, Yahoo, Google's web search engine giants......

The whole of America is buzzing.

However, in this stall, as the most eye-catching Chinese director and boss in Hollywood, Yi Feiyang stood up for a press conference.

At the conference, Yi Feiyang announced that Dream Pictures officially acquired 1,800 films from MGM Pictures for $300 million. Dream Pictures officially changed its name to "Dream Entertainment Group Company" and will continue to shoot movies in the future. It will also operate television entertainment and record production......

One stone stirs up a thousand waves!

No one thought that Dream Company would make such a big move!

But the most surprising thing is that Dream Company actually spent 300 million yuan to acquire one-third of MGM's film source!

Sony Company, Lionsgate Pictures, and Emperor Pictures and other companies, all of them are very depressed!

They don't understand, why do they lose for what they want?! Lost to the previous "inconspicuous" dream company!!

However, in the face of such a reality, Lionsgate's Gusta still sent a congratulatory message to Yi Feiyang, and the congratulatory message made it very clear that Yi Feiyang Company was successfully promoted to the ranks of large companies.

Although the tone is a little sour, it is very sincere.

Of course, Yi Feiyang understands Gusta's thoughts, and anyone who is surpassed by a rising star will feel uncomfortable in his heart.

But friends are still friends.

After all, Hollywood speaks by strength and judges heroes by success or failure.

……

The media in the world have given enthusiastic reports on the transformation of Dream Pictures into a Dream Entertainment Group Company.

As a media, they witnessed this medium-sized company leap into the ranks of large companies, and also witnessed the official launch of the entertainment aircraft carrier built by Yi Feiyang!

However, more media were shocked by Yi Feiyang's sudden statement. So much so that a voice shouted: "The wolf is coming!" ”

Yes, the wolf is coming!

At this time, Yi Feiyang was dubbed the "Wolf of Hollywood" and became a veritable new entertainment tycoon.

And those Hollywood giants who originally ignored Yi Feiyang and his dream company, for the first time, collectively focused their attention on this "Hollywood wolf"!

……

As the target of public criticism, Yi Feiyang was not idle, after he acquired MGM stock film source, the first thing he did was to use the film source to order Blu-ray discs, please note that this is "customized", to be precise, "private custom"! In the name of Dream Entertainment Company, the main nostalgic card, on the Internet and newspapers and magazines to order CDs, the slogan is: "Yesterday reappears, dreams come true; Blu-ray disc, customized! ”

As soon as the advertisement was released, it immediately caused a sensation in the United States, and those middle-class, those elderly people, especially those who accompanied their lovers to watch MGM movies when they were young, could no longer hold back their inner excitement, and went online or called to order CDs.

No one could have imagined that in just a few days, Dream Entertainment Company would receive orders, and the total value of these orders has reached an astonishing $37 million!

Of course, Yi Feiyang will not just make this money, he has taken it a step further and let Alex take charge of the business of online movie downloads.

Google Networks, a subsidiary of the Dream Group, has now joined forces to create a downloadable movie business. Internet paid downloads are still a very trendy thing, but Americans just like the latest trendy things, not to mention. It's also not expensive to download a movie. It's only a few cents. If you download more, you will be able to get points, and if you have more points, you can apply to become a VIP member and enjoy a lot of special treatment......

Don't underestimate this download business that only earns a few cents, there is a way to "small profits but quick turnover", this marketing model is no more suitable for this kind of film source N download sales. In just half a month, according to the data reported back by Google, the profit obtained by Dream Entertainment Company from movie downloads is as high as more than 20 million US dollars, and this. And that's just the beginning......

The news that Dream Entertainment Group relied on the acquired film sources to make a huge profit spread far and wide, which made those who couldn't eat grapes say that grapes were sour. Although I admire Yi Feiyang's method of making money very much, everyone still thinks that this is the greed of wolves, and they will never let go of a trace of fat in their mouths.

"Watch out for this hungry wolf, he will steal all your stuff without mercy!" ——The words of a well-known Hollywood filmmaker.

"Yes, you have to be wary of him!"

"Greed! Cunning! And vicious! ”

Yi Feiyang's "Hollywood Wolf" is once again famous.

Just when Hollywood people were talking about this wolf from the East, Yi Feiyang was talking to Hong Kong on the phone.

Now Yi Feiyang's worth has skyrocketed, and his net worth has exceeded 2 billion. For him, the biggest concern is his parents in Hong Kong. Compared to the situation of Yi Feiyang's busy and abnormal. The fat man Gao Jiabao often called home, and of course, helped Yi Feiyang greet his parents.

As the saying goes, the mother of a thousand miles is worried, not to mention the ocean on the side of the United States. Although Yi Feiyang is living well in the United States, constantly getting ahead, newspapers and magazines are all written, what billionaire director, what entertainment tycoon, what gold medal screenwriter, and Hollywood talent, but all this is not as comfortable as listening to his son say a word on the phone.

The fat man acted as Yi Feiyang's microphone, and occasionally made up some words to make the two old men happy.

After a long time, the fat man inevitably complained, saying that Yi Feiyang was too unfilial, and he just worked for him, not as a stand-in for him......

"Ah Yang, if you have time, you should call the old man in person, the left and right relatives don't have their own sons!" These are the exact words of the fat man.

It was rare to have time to spare today, so Yi Feiyang picked up the phone and called Hong Kong.

After the two old men connected the phone, they looked very excited, and before Yi Feiyang could speak, the first thing his mother said was: "It's cold over there in Los Angeles, do you have thicker clothes?" ”

With this sentence, Yi Feiyang's heart immediately became sour.

Finally calmed down, the father and mother on the other side of the phone began to nag, the words were very plain, very ordinary, nothing more than to take care of their body, eat and dress well, pay attention to rest, don't work too hard, etc. But these bland words made Yi Feiyang's heart warm, and he felt warm like spring in cold Los Angeles.

After the last time, he finally found a chance to speak, Yi Feiyang said: "Mom, Dad, why don't I take you to Los Angeles to live!" ”

Yi Feiyang's meaning is very simple, he wants to take his parents over and enjoy the blessings, although he can't serve their old people, but he is still very relieved to be by his side.

The other end of the phone immediately rejected Yi Feiyang's proposal, and his parents said that they understood Yi Feiyang's filial piety, but they were used to living in Hong Kong, and they were used to eating egg tarts there, and they were reluctant to let their friends over there, in my mother's words: "Who will make me a card partner when I get to the United States?!" ”

Yi Feiyang couldn't laugh or cry about this.

However, he also understands that if he really takes the old couple to the United States, if nothing else, they can suffocate them to death just because of the language barrier.

Helpless, Yi Feiyang had no choice but to say that he would remit a large amount of money, so that the old couple would not be reluctant to spend it, hire a few more maids, and it would be best to buy a larger villa, which would be more lively and not too lonely...... Because Yi Feiyang knows the Tao, the elderly will feel lonely and lonely.

The parents on the other end of the phone kept agreeing, but Yi Feiyang was still not confident whether they would do it or not. Because he knows how difficult it is to suddenly let them be extravagant after a lifetime of saving and simplicity. For example, the last time I mailed back a lot of precious ginseng to replenish my body, but after the most I got to the end, they distributed it to the neighbors.

In fact, Yi Feiyang also knows that his father is so reluctant to spend money, and he likes to save the checks he mailed in every time, the reason is that they always feel that their son is like a nouveau riche, rich and unsteady, who can become rich like this in just two or three years? !

Especially when the neighbors keep reporting the good news to their family, saying what happened to their family, the old couple is always worried, for fear that it will be a bad thing, in case their baby son falls from a rich man to a flat-headed common man overnight, what can I do?!

Being prepared for danger in times of peace is a traditional concept of the Chinese.

Mom and Dad are no exception.

Yi Feiyang once sent someone to fly to Hong Kong to supervise his parents to "live a good life". But in the end, he still dismissed this idea, because in his opinion, the old people have their own way of life.

"It's better to take the time to go back and have a look!" Yi Feiyang said to himself.

Who knows that this "Hollywood wolf", who is rumored to be "cunning and cruel" and "ruthless as iron" by the outside world in the United States, is full of homesickness at this moment...... (To be continued......)
