Chapter 229: Old man David's mention (including adding 8/15 for the alliance leader 'qiz') to ask for a monthly ticket
(Fa Fa Fa, this Fa Fa, Jiumu Gong, you abrasive little goblin...... )
"I saw on TV that you had invaded Colombia, and it was reported that you had killed more than 500 people over there, and that you had burned all the bones to ashes and buried them under a factory." Lao Sa gave a thumbs up.
"For those drug offenders, those who have repeatedly failed to change their ways, and have plunged society into turmoil, this kind of direct means should be adopted, which is an attitude of being responsible for the whole society and the people."
"I'm in favor of yours."
Sean's expression is weird, am I reaching a consensus with Lao Sa?
Ilak, or the entire Middle East, can be watched on European television.
Previously, Murdoch's Sky TV had been choreographing and promoting how Sean's X Security Company carried out the massacre, how it invaded Colombia, and how the Colombian name was in dire straits.
However, in the eyes of ordinary people, this thing is indeed quite evil, but in the eyes of national leaders, it is a different taste.
Ruthless, unscrupulous, powerful, commercial organization, not having to bear the responsibilities that those countries need to bear, this is a super good thug!
Don't you dare to let it go if you don't see the Colombian fart!
After getting the news and after some investigation, Lao Sa was immediately moved.
The American banner alone is worth a lot of money!
It is said that it is a purely commercial organization, but the special Americans are Americans, and it is good that they are not bullied, and if they are bullied, you see if the US government will jump out and shout.
Besides, that guy's surname is Rockefeller!
These two points alone are worth ten F-14s.
This is also the reason why Ali personally went to greet him, and shouted 'Welcome to Mr. Rockefeller' when he met him.
Sean also found out about this, and directly said that it was good to call himself Sean.
A skirmish.
Lao Sa knew that the contradictions between the interest groups headed by the Rockefeller family and the Yilang government were irreconcilable, and the resentment was very deep.
What's more, Sean also brought him a surprise.
It was because of Murdoch's news that he had smeared himself that he had won such a large order, and Sean instantly felt that this Australian criminal was not so annoying.
There's also a little cuteness.
The trouble is that now the news must be kept secret, and he can't jump in front of Murdoch to thank him personally, which makes Sean very unhappy.
……
In the past few days of Sean Ilak, on the American side, Murdoch's newspaper media have all targeted New Jersey.
The Long Branch Heist
Brownwick Shooting Report
It's a big New Jersey, or a place like the United States, where there aren't too many crimes, maybe it's just drinking too much, maybe it's a bad mood to take revenge on society, maybe it's impulsiveness after a quarrel, shootings happen every day, even after Sean flattened the local gangs and standardized the code of conduct.
But Murdoch's newspapers were all aimed at New Jersey, and for a time it was as if New Jersey's law and order had become a state of sin.
That's the benefit of controlling the media, and while the truth is that security in New Jersey has improved dramatically in the past two years, no one cares about local New Jersey reports.
Other media outlets will also help clarify something for no reason, in fact, helping to clarify is likely to turn out to be busy, and having a discussion will only bring the matter to a wider attention.
Not only that, "Is the large-scale accumulation of waste electronic products in garbage dumps pollution or environmental protection? 》
Blending Oil? Garbage oil? 》
"In the name of environmental protection, do things of destruction!" 》
"Abuse of Prisoners in Private Prisons"
"High-priced prisons have changed the smell of the law!" 》
Punishment or Reward? 》
If the media wants to find some black spots, it is not casual, a series of various reports, both experts and comments, are all sensitive topics.
Sean's conflict with Mercado has caused so much negative public opinion in New Jersey, which has made the state government and parliament very unhappy.
……
Instead of continuing to enjoy the Arabian style in Illac, Sean and his party made a detour back to the United States.
Sean and his entourage were very satisfied with this order, and in the eyes of the old man Leiden, this was the first step for the umbrella company to officially debut in the world.
As long as this step is successful, the follow-up road will be easy to follow.
Cartagena didn't count at all before, it was a service for itself, and nothing could be proven.
Robert S. Captain A. Owens was also satisfied, and finally had the opportunity to make a difference.
Colonel Dennis Abt is also quite satisfied, although this time the Marine Corps has no chance to show off, but as long as the market is open, their opportunities will be indispensable in the future.
After all, there are far more conflicts on the ground than on the sea, and not many countries can afford to fight naval battles these days.
Not all countries have the fighting power of Ilak and Elang.
Ilak had been shouting that he was the fourth military power, and Ilak had the confidence to dare to shout like this.
It only admits that it is not comparable to China, the United States, and the Soviet Union, and dares to stand out with any other country.
Yes, it's John Bull, a Falklands war is a war for John Bull to bet on the fortunes of the country, and it's really rotten.
Of course, the most satisfying is Sean, $50 million, very thirst-quenching!
This operation, if nothing else, will not last long, spend some money here, speed up the progress of the transformation, and take advantage of this time to find the ship responsible for transportation to pick up the goods from the rabbit.
Half a month of actual escort is enough.
If you do a good job this time, there will be no less follow-up points.
It's been three years, three whole years, and the security company has finally seen the money back.
It's really three years not open, open for three years.
It's just that after arriving in Newark, Sean's good mood was immediately broken by some annoying things.
"Damn, how are these damn Australians as annoying as bed bugs!" Sean threw the newspapers Norris had collected to the ground and cursed with an ugly face.
Norris was transferred by Sean from the film company to become a big eunuch.
Now that Sean has more and more properties under his name, there are many things to pass through him every day, and if Sean doesn't want to die of exhaustion, he must have a secretary by his side.
Torre followed Sean, he was in charge of Sean's safety work, Sean had so many enemies, and he was running around, and the safety issue alone had already broken Torre's heart.
Sean would assemble a team of secretaries to serve him, and Norris was the one he used to manage the team.
What he needs is that Norris doesn't have this ability, and the eunuch can't interfere in politics, so just be a mouthpiece and arrange his own itinerary, daily life, and entertainment activities.
Norris is an expert in this area.
"Haven't you contacted us yet?" Sean glared at Norris.
"Yes, Lamb said that someone had contacted him over there, but he felt that the attitude of the other side was a little perfunctory." Norris didn't forget to add.
Sean snorted coldly, "Let Lamb contact them, make an appointment, I'll go over and meet them, and besides, ask Armstrong to come over." ”
Norris went to make arrangements, and not long after, Armstrong walked in.
"Sit down, I'm here to tell you something." Sean beckoned, finally with a smile on his face.
"Boss, what's the matter?"
"I want your intelligence group to be independent from the Umbrella Corporation." This is not a whim of Sean, but he has been thinking about it for a while, "Originally, the purpose of setting up the intelligence group was to provide intelligence support for some secret activities at the beginning, but now, the demand for intelligence in business far exceeds the protective umbrella. ”
"I mean, you led the Intelligence Unit to become independent and set up an information consulting company, which is mainly responsible for intelligence support on the business side."
"This ......," Armstrong asked after a moment's hesitation, "and what about the umbrella side, the battlefield can't be without intelligence support." ”
"Over there, I'm going to re-establish a battlefield reconnaissance team, specifically for intelligence support in the war environment, and outside the battlefield, because our umbrella is a commercial organization, it is actually still within the scope of commercial intelligence."
"I see, I'm fine." Armstrong nodded, it would be better for the scope of work to be clearer, less dangerous, and the place of work would not have to be limited to military bases.
Although they are all from military backgrounds, there is no battlefield syndrome for those who engage in intelligence, and they are different from those who kill people, and they tend to live more like ordinary people.
"That's it, I don't interfere with the specific way of working, I mean, the intelligence team can be divided into levels, and for the kind of complicated work that has no confidentiality, pure information collection, or low confidentiality, it can be directly recruited in the society to complete, and our professional manpower will be liberated." Sean made a suggestion.
"Haha, sure enough, most of the time the truth of things is figured out, from the perspective of capitalists, this kind of exploitation is more targeted, more thorough, and will not cause unnecessary waste." Armstrong was also in a good mood today, and made a rare joke.
"Damn, how can this be exploitation, it's called putting the right people in more suitable positions." Sean pretended to be angry and said: "I should get a batch of robots to watch you guys, work 8 hours a day, and you can't rest for a second!" ”
"Well, I finally know what the capitalists are doing to develop artificial intelligence technology!" Armstrong shook his head and sighed.
"The aim is to prevent the capitalists from being exploited by the workers." Sean said seriously.
Armstrong:???
"No, did I hear it wrong or did you say it wrong!" Armstrong looked at Sean with a strange expression.
"Of course you heard it right!" Sean is talking nonsense seriously, "But when the capital is invested in the company, he can't move, he can only obediently wait for the labor force to cooperate with him, on the contrary, the labor force can desert, make a phone call during working hours, drink coffee, or do a little fake public business, which is very easy!" ”
"Therefore, in the process of combining capital with labor, capital is actually weak, easy to be bullied, easy to be bullied, easy to be wasted, and easy to be exploited."
"As for the labor force, he is the strongest, so we 'entrepreneurs' must prevent capital from being exploited by laborers."
"That's amazing!" Amst opened his mouth wide and said loudly with an exaggerated expression: "Marx can make you angry!" ”
"Oh my God, boss, do you really think so, did you say that to the outside?"
"I, no, dare, say!" Sean straightened his waist and looked confident, "I'm afraid that someone will shoot me with a black gun!" ”
The two looked at each other and immediately laughed out loud.
The capitalists dare not think so!
Afraid!
(The above is excerpted from Xue Zhaofeng, former co-director of the Center for Law and Economics at Peking University.) )
After laughing for a while, Sean said: "Send someone to me, there are a lot of things going on every day, the United States flies everywhere, I need a secretary who can help me answer questions at any time, I can't call you over every time." ”
“OK!” Armstrong tilted his head and thought about it, revealing a big smile, "I have a good candidate to recommend to you, boss, you must be satisfied." ”
"Okay, I'll wait." Sean said with a smile.
In life, there must always be something surprising.
Armstrong left, and before leaving, Sean told him to keep an all-out eye on Murdoch's eight calves lately.
Something like a toad.
Sean is currently deeply entrenched in New Jersey, and these ambiguous public opinions can't hurt him at all, but it's not hurtful and insulting.
……
After a day off at home, Sean went to the Rockefeller family office in New York the next day.
As soon as he entered the door, Sean shouted with emotion: "Fifth grandfather, I'm coming to see you!" ”
David smiled at the corner of his mouth, squinting at Sean who walked in with something, "You kid is here like this, sit down." ”
"Black tea!" Sean raised his hand to the secretary and didn't sit down, but walked to David's desk and put the gift in his hand on the table.
"Oh, it's rare, and I got a gift, something." David glanced at Sean with a smile.
"It's nothing, I went out to run errands a few days ago, and I brought it back by the way, an Arab specialty." Sean waved his hand casually and sat down, "I know you don't lack anything, it's just a little heart for the elders." ”
"Oh!" David took the gift box with great interest, and the packaging was unexpectedly beautiful, just a little rustic and gilded.
When I opened the box, there were neatly arranged dates.
"Dates, sweet and delicious, high nutritional value, it is rich in vitamins, can also fight cancer, eat a few a day, it is very good for the body." Sean said casually: "Don't worry, if it's cleaned, it can be eaten directly." ”
Dates, a specialty of Elak, ranks first in the world in terms of date palm production.
Of course David has eaten the dates, smiled and picked one up and threw it into his mouth slowly, well, very unexpectedly sweet.
Can it be good, sent by Lao Sa, the best date palm in Ilak.
The secretary brought tea in, Sean thanked him, and when he saw the secretary go out and close the door, David closed the gift box and looked at Sean with a smile, "Say, what's the matter?" ”
"Fifth grandfather, what you said is sad." Sean's face turned pale, "I can't come to see the elders in the family if I'm fine." ”
"Huh." David chuckled, "Okay, if you say it's okay, it's okay, you have a heart." ”
Sean didn't say, he didn't ask, it was like seeing what this little bastard wanted to do.
To David's surprise, Sean really chatted for a while, then got up and said goodbye.
Seeing Sean walk to the door, before he said anything, David couldn't sit still.
"Are you really okay, little bastard?"
"Fifth Grandpa, am I so utilitarian in your heart?" Sean's face was full of grievances, and his eyes were red.
"Hiss......" David squinted and sighed for a while, "I know you're going to buy the TV network of the Capital Media Company, but the result may not be what you expected." ”
"Huh?" Sean was stunned, closed the door casually, his tears were instantly collected, and he asked solemnly, "What's the matter?" ”
"Do you know how much the Metropolis Media's television network is worth?"
“5…… 700 million? Sean said tentatively.
The acquisition of Metropolis Media Company was made temporarily because Harvey mentioned Murdoch's matter, and he did not investigate anything in depth, according to the price of the TV station that Lamb inquired about before was 50 million, Sean doubled it to the other party, and then calculated the price.
He has been so busy lately that he doesn't have time to pay too much attention to it, and now when he heard Old Man David say this, his heart suddenly became a little nervous.
"Heh, be bolder." Old man David smiled.
"Huh? 1 billion? "Sean was really shocked.
Old man David smiled silently.
"It's not going to be 1.4 billion, right?" Sean's eyes widened, he doesn't have a net worth of 700 million now, you tell me 14 billion.
, it's a plant!
"The pattern is still small." Old man David laughed loudly: "If you don't participate in the competition, about 1.6 billion or so Murdoch can win, but you ...... compete"
Old man David raised his hand.
"Ahh Sean tilted his head back fiercely and scolded angrily: "I'm special, crazy, why is it so expensive?" ”
"Hah, you don't think you're the only smart person in the world, do you?" Old man David saw that Sean was angry, and his mood suddenly improved, "Everyone can see the development prospects of the TV network, at present, there is no cable TV network in the United States that can cover most of the country, at present, under the squeeze of the three major wireless TV media, the development of the capital media company has fallen into a bottleneck, so there is the idea of introducing investors or selling." ”
"In other words, even if it is an acquisition, the burden will be passed on, and the risk is very high."
"No, I don't have that much money, I'll admit, he Murdoch has." Sean asked with a look of disgriet, gritting his back molars.
"Heh, he's not like you, he always likes to eat alone." David said with a smile: "Murdoch is very ambitious, of course, he does not have so much money to make a wholly-owned acquisition, Murdoch will buy a part of the shares, and then use News Corp's shares to replace with Metropolis Media Company, plus loans, and finally complete the acquisition." ”
"I don't think you kid knows all about it, huh." David glared at Sean disapprovingly.
"You have no contact with the operation of television networks, and all the companies under your name have nothing to do with television media, so I am not optimistic that you will rush into an unfamiliar field."
"Your methods are of no use in the operation of TV stations, and the operation of TV networks depends on content in the final analysis, and there is no content to attract users, everything is empty talk."
Sean is currently developing well, and David also takes this opportunity to persuade Sean and doesn't want him to go astray.
However, Old Man David estimated that he could not persuade him......
The truth is in the hands of a few.
Most people think that they can do it, this business can make money, and they will do it, and this business will definitely have a big development, but they can't make a lot of money in a short time.
The vast majority of people don't think that this business can be done, so there is some possibility for this kind of business to make a lot of money in a short time.
For example, the earliest Taobao and Jingdong.
Therefore, those who succeed in a short period of time are extremely confident and conceited, and those who can be persuaded will not achieve such high achievements in a short period of time.
Everyone is optimistic about the future development of the TV network, so the TV network will definitely have great development.
But, making money or something, it's slow.
This is a long-term investment, and it is necessary to fight your way out in the fierce competition.
Sean nodded, I admit that David was right, normally it really shouldn't be to buy any TV network.
What kind of content does a person who makes a fortune by one shot and one shot......
What is the difference between this and a cook who wants to be a general!
But he can really do a good job of content!
It's just that before this thing is made, I really can't say it, I can't understand it, and no one believes it.
Pete Chernin only believed in his own abilities, in the protection that Sean could provide, and in Rockefeller's financial strength.
As for Sean, well, boss, it's enough to provide financial and moral support!
"Thank you, Fifth Grandpa, however, I still have to accept the TV network, and I will accept it, and Jesus can't stop what I said!" Sean said categorically.
Old man David rolled his eyes, as if I knew it.
"Okay, you buy, but I said in advance, the Rockefeller consortium's think tank has a very low evaluation of your acquisition and is not optimistic, so the consortium will not support it, and I can't help it."
"Moreover, Rockefeller's main investment direction is not in the media field, and each consortium has a direct main investment direction, which will not easily cross the line." Old man David reminded.
"So what if I really run the media group?" Sean had to ask clearly, so that he would not believe the discipline of those big corporations.
"Accidents are everywhere in this world, aren't they!" David laughed and said: "This kind of world is interesting, it is wonderful enough, and if it is always repeated, then there is still any fun at all." ”
Sean instantly understood that he was not a member of the Rockefeller consortium, if he really made himself a ......
What a fucking surprise!
It's a fucking surprise!
Sean must do it, and Old Man David didn't stop him, just instructed him, don't use core assets for mortgages, do a good job of asset cutting, even if you lose money, it's a big deal to file for bankruptcy.
With the backing of the family, Sean will never really lose his fortune.
Looking at Sean who disappeared at the door, David sighed, and he didn't know if this kid could listen to him.
After sitting for a while, he opened the gift box brought by Sean, and slowly ate two dates.
Eating, eating, David always felt that something was wrong, stared at the gift box for a long time, closed it, and was dumbfounded when he looked at it in turn.
A Ilak of the kingdom is imprinted on it.
Ilak?
If you look closely, this thing is not for sale at all, it is specially used by Elak to give to guests, so it was brought back by Sean in Ilak.
At this time, there is a war over there, what is that kid doing in Ilak?
Also received by the authorities and given gifts?
What's so ......
The more David thought about it, the more he felt that there was something wrong with this.
"The little bastard isn't going to be ready to intervene in the Iran-Iraq war, is he!?" David's eyes widened.
"I ......"
"Stinky boy, no wonder you give me a gift, this is, this is something happened for me to give it to you!" David gritted his teeth angrily, scolded and grabbed a date palm and bit it down fiercely.
If you eat this mouthful of dates, you will not be able to excuse yourself and say that you don't know!
Damn, you came to lie and attack me, a 70-year-old man.
It's not the first time!
It's a fucking bad breed......
After scolding twice, Old Man David laughed again.
Pick up another date and throw it into your mouth.
However, there is such a bad boy, but he doesn't have to worry that he has no successor to Rockefeller after he dies, and there are not a few bones left to be swallowed by those professional managers.
Thinking about it, Old Man David picked up a date again and threw it into his mouth.
It's so sweet!
……
Back in Newark, Sean was not idle, and after getting in touch with Lamb, he flew straight to Los Angeles.
Definitely, you must buy a private jet, sitting in first class, Sean only felt that he couldn't stretch his legs, and swore silently in his heart with some depression.
When he arrived in Los Angeles, Pete Chernin was already waiting for him in the villa.
Take Pete to the study of the villa.
"The value of Metropolis Media is far beyond imagination." As soon as he entered the door, Sean said directly with a serious expression.
"I know too." There was no surprise on Pete Chernin's face.
There was still some time before he officially left his post after submitting his resignation, and during this time, he used the resources at hand to launch an investigation into the capital's media.
After all, he specialized in the TV network business, and it didn't take much effort to investigate the plot and clarify the valuation.
If you simply calculate the net value, the capital media is indeed about 500 million.
And any company has debts, and Capital Media is no exception, plus debts, that is about 800 million.
In addition, the brand value, the number of users on the network, the company's film library, copyrights, including the artists and employees contracted by the company, these are the company's wealth.
When you add it up, it's about 1 billion.
The capital media is not bankrupt, it is someone else who wants to buy on the pole, and the other party gives up the good company that runs well, gives up future earnings, and the premium sales are certain.
The simple acquisition of some shares will cost at least 20-30% of the premium, let alone the acquisition of the company.
The folk saying is the so-called transfer fee, a profitable store with a cost of 1 million, and the transfer will cost 1 million.
Pete Chernin is now worried about Sean coming to him in such a hurry, whether he is going to give up the acquisition plan.
To be honest, he blamed Sean a little in his heart, why did you spend so much money to buy a company without investigating it carefully?
This...... It's so.
Pete felt like he was being caught.
"It looks like we're going to change the way we make acquisitions." Sean sat down, squinting his eyes and said.
Upon hearing this, Pete breathed a sigh of relief.
"Why, I'm worried that I'll give up, how is it possible." Sean chuckled, "It's just that I used to think about a wholly-owned acquisition, but now I can only change the way." ”
"I got news from my family that Murdoch is ready to buy part of the shares, and use the shares of the company under his name to replace and mortgage the share loan to complete the snack big operation."
Hearing that the family got the news, Pete's eyes immediately lit up.
With the Rockefeller consortium on the back, he Pitt will be fearless.
Sean certainly knows what Pete thinks, but he won't tell.
This is not a lie!
How can the businessman's business be a deception, this is called deception, and you yourself have a wrong understanding of what it has to do with me.
"I'm not going to trade it for company shares." Sean told Pete his thoughts, "I can only buy a part of the shares, and I can become a major shareholder, money, I will find a way to raise." ”
"What I came to you means is that after the acquisition of Metropolis Media Company, you will take over as president, but for the time being, you will no longer form a media group, and Sean Film and Television will operate independently."
"I'm going to form a wholly owned subsidiary under Sean Films, just like you do now, specializing in TV series and TV shows, with production separation."
"After a period of development, after the wholly-owned subsidiary grows up, it will use Metropolis Media to merge Sean Pictures to dilute the shares of other shareholders."
"What do you think?" Sean looked at Pete.
"That's a good idea." Pete said with a smile as to whether TV production and series production can be successful and whether they can be popular.
Pete is still sure, after all, that's what he does.
"In this case, we can first buy a part of the shares of Metropolis Media from the minority shareholders." Pete thought for a while and said, "I have some connections, and if I inquire, I should be able to know who has the intention of selling his shares." ”
"Okay, I asked Lamb to contact the capital media, we can go and meet together when we go back, you are my killer weapon." Saying that, Sean smiled: "They all thought I was just adding to Murdoch's blockage, hehe, when they see you, they will know my determination." ”
"I'm glad I was able to make such a big difference." Pete said with a smile.
……
While Sean was busy forming a media group, on the other side, Robert J. A. Owens rushed to the shipyard.
It is impossible to speed up the renovation and repair, unless, add money.
The price was quickly negotiated, and the shipyard was very happy, and they liked these expedited ones, which were nothing more than a little adjustment of the work plan, and some workers were transferred from other product lines, and there was no additional cost.
In addition to this, Robert M. A. Owens also offered to install an additional set of shipborne anti-aircraft weapons.
The missile system originally planned to be installed was only quadruple Harpoon anti-ship missiles, but since it was going to the Persian Gulf, it was bound to be threatened by the Yilang Air Force, and it was necessary to install a set of anti-aircraft missiles.
It was discussed before coming, and it was finally decided to install a set of 'Tatar' anti-aircraft missiles.
Tatar anti-aircraft missile, codenamed RIM-24, the first generation of the United States ship-to-air missile system, began to develop in 1958, put into service in 1961, is an all-weather, medium and short-range, medium and low-altitude ship-to-air missile weapon system equipped by the Navy, mainly equipped on destroyers and frigates of the United States Navy.
ILAK buys the Wolf-class frigates, which are equipped with American 'Sea Sparrow' anti-aircraft missiles.
Sparrow, just by listening to it, you can only eat small things like small insect food, this kind of thing, Sean can't look down on.
Indeed, the Sea Sparrow, originally an air-to-air missile, is a combat missile used on fighter jets, and the range depends on the speed of the fighter and the direction of the target.
If it is a head-on rush at full speed, the theoretical maximum range can reach 35 kilometers, but if it is a pursuit, it will only be five kilometers.
In other words, as long as you are five kilometers away, there is no need to be afraid at all.
It's a little sparrow, after all!
However, it is almost a bit of a hit, but it is constantly developed on this basis in the later stage, and it can be used as an anti-missile interception system on a warship, and this little thing is still very useful for straight missiles.
Look at the 'Tatars' again!
The Tatars, who are hailed by Europeans as the whip of God, the king of mounted archery, and the existence of invincible opponents across Eurasia.
The whole process of semi-active radar homing guidance, the maximum range is 19 kilometers, the maximum altitude is 12 kilometers, and the maximum speed is 2.5 times the speed of sound. The length of the bomb is 4.6 meters, the diameter of the bomb is 0.34 meters, and the mass of the whole bomb is 680 kilograms.
The range is 4 times that of the little sparrow, which is faster and more accurate, and is fully computer-controlled and more sensitive.
Of course, the money is even better!!
If it weren't for Ilak's order, Sean would be reluctant to equip this thing for a while.
Damn, missiles are expensive, launch systems are even more expensive.
The launch system is not only the launch equipment, but also includes the entire set of radar and fire control systems.
The radar should also be combined with the radar on the original ship and deployed to form a radar array to achieve better results.
This thing, without technology, even if you give it to you, you can't even fit it.
So, the assembly cost is also expensive......
Before and after, I asked for Sean 12 million again, and I just saved some money and smashed it in.
……
At the meeting time arranged with the capital media, Sean rushed to Washington two days in advance.
Metropolis Media was first founded in Texas, and later slowly merged some cable television stations in other states, and finally formed.
So, its shareholders are all over the place.
Peter Chernin has already learned part of the news that the shareholders of Metropolis Media want to make a move.
"Hello, Mr. George."
"Hello, Mr. Sean."
Meeting, shaking hands, and exchanging a few pleasantries, George looked at Sean, and he couldn't figure out why this guy had suddenly come to visit him.
It's not really going to buy the capital media.
"I'll get straight to the point, I want to buy your shares in Capital Media." Sean looked into George's eyes, "You make an offer." ”
"Are you really going to buy the capital medium?" George looked at Sean with a look of astonishment.
"Of course." Sean said with a smile.
George was caught off guard by Sean, he wanted to sell 5% of the shares of Metropolis Media, and talked to Murdoch a few times, but he didn't agree on the price.
George asked for 85 million, but Murdoch was not prepared to pay so much premium, and Murdoch was only ready to pay 70 million.
This is a bit far from George's psychological price of 80 million.
The two sides are still grinding slowly.
If he is allowed to get more than 50% of the shares, he will lower the price even more later.
"Price." Sean raised his hand.
"85 million!" George made a direct offer, and who to sell it to is not to sell.
"I've always been very simple in business, 80 million at a fixed price, you agree, let's sign a contract at any time!" Sean was even more straightforward and returned a price directly.
George took a deep breath and looked at Sean in horror.
Are today's young people so bold?
80 million, just open your mouth and come!
Old man George squinted, and he suddenly felt that his asking price was a little low.
"Almost, there's no need to worry about that little bit." Sean sat back on the sofa and said with a smile, "I was the first to find you, Mr. George, I hope that this is the beginning of our cooperation, what do you think?" ”
"Okay." George smiled and spread his hands, 80 million business, the old man has talked about business so quickly for the first time in his life.
I really couldn't accept it for a while.
"I'm glad we got an agreement." Sean stood up, laughed and shook George's hand.
Although it is a verbal agreement, the two will not break it.
How much is a pound of credibility at the bottom, it all depends on the net worth of different people.
A person who only has a few hundred dollars in his pocket may be able to buy his reputation for 10 yuan.
Of course, it may not be possible to buy it with no amount of money.
A person with billions in his pocket is worth at least tens of millions or more.
Of course, if you can do it without knowing it, you can also be worthless.
A large part of the reason why it is said that 'poor ** plan, rich long conscience' is here.
It's not that if you are rich, you must become good, a good person is a good person, whether he is poor or rich, a bad person is a bad person, whether he is poor or rich.
Wealth cannot change the essence of a person, wealth is only an amplifier of ability.
The reason for being rich is that when you are rich, the value of your reputation will be high, and you will not do anything for a little profit.
Again, but when the 'name' is worth 10 million, they don't mind saying 1 million to buy and bring the reputation back.
When they first made their fortunes, capitalists could do whatever it took to make a fortune, but when they got rich, they were willing to do charity to gain fame.
Of course, fame also allows them to make more money.
The verbal agreement is reached, and then it is a matter of signing the contract, which is not in a hurry, Sean means to sign a fixed-term purchase agreement first.
Metrocity Media is a listed company, and a share change of more than 5% is to be announced.
"I will pay a deposit of 10 million first, and then change the shares at the right time." Sean said, of course, more because he can't afford to pay 80 million now.
10 million will be poured for a while......
"OK, no problem." George still believes in Sean and prefers to believe in Rockefeller.
"By the way, I know that Mr. George is engaged in petroleum smelting, so I have no problem paying the rest with oil." Sean said with a smile.
"Huh?" George was stunned, oil for cash?
"Well, it's not good." George shook his head, the international oil price is volatile, the price is difficult to control, and they sign supply contracts in advance for oil smelting.
"Haha, what's wrong with this, just sign a suitable price, I can be a little lower than the price you originally purchased." Sean blinked, "Even 1% lower is good, isn't it?" ”
After the outbreak of the Iran-Iraq war, due to the blockade and control of the Persian Gulf by Yilang, it was very difficult to sell Laosa's oil, and it was difficult for oil tankers to enter and exit.
Capitalists, at this time, they must be lowering prices.
Therefore, it is actually quite difficult to let Lao Sa pay 50 million, but if Lao Sa is allowed to use oil to offset the dollar......
Sean estimated that According to the international oil price, he can reduce the price by at least one-third, and the price can be reduced by half!
That's $100 million worth of oil!
George squinted at Sean for a long time, he couldn't figure out where Sean's oil came from, it couldn't be from Rockefeller.
Could it be that this guy has robbed Colombia's oil fields?
However, as a capitalist, he is not in the mood to worry about others, and if it is cheap, why not.
After discussing for a long time, and referring to the current oil price, it was finally agreed that it would be 3% lower than the market price.
After negotiating two deals, Sean was very happy and invited old George to his peace hotel to have fun, and old George agreed.
Coming out of Old George's house, Sean couldn't help but think that if Old George had a bad wind immediately after signing the contract, wouldn't it......
Suppress this bold idea.
Sean instructed Torre to drive towards Old Cloth's house.
When you come to Washington, of course, you have to pay a visit to Lao Butou.
Lao Sa's order, for the sake of insurance, I still consult Lao Bu to prevent myself from having any unexpected loopholes that make people scratch the handle.
I had already made an appointment before I came, and Xiaobu greeted him at the door, and Lao Bu hadn't gotten off work at this time.
Sean took out the dates in a gold-inlaid box again, and when Lao Sa left, Sean specially asked for a lot.
Hearing that Sean was going to take the battleship to Yilang, Xiaobu was shocked.
This military outsourcing thing really made you do it!
Lao Bu came back, and it wasn't the first time Sean came to the door, so he was not polite, and only after dinner did he enter the study with Lao Bu.
Listening to the cooperation between Sean and Ilak, Lao Bu frowned and pondered for a long time, "It's no problem, but you can't conflict with Yilang." ”
"Remember, this is a certainty, otherwise it will be troublesome."
"Sure, but, I don't understand why?" Sean asked.
"Yilang is holding hostages of our Ministry of Foreign Affairs, and the midterm elections are approaching, and there is a real conflict at this time, which is very, very troublesome." Lao Bu said solemnly.

"Okay, I got it." Sean nodded.
Sean nodded, and Lao Bu suddenly showed a smile, "If you really do well this time, maybe, you will have a good chance." ”
"Ah, what a chance!" Sean asked, a little confused.
Lao Bu smiled and shook his head, "This will be talked about at that time, now I can't say well, if you really need it, it will be a very, very good opportunity for your career." ”
Sean nodded knowingly, but kept slandering in his heart, damn, I hate these old Riddlers the most.
Those who engage in politics are so chattering.
……
At that time, the secret is about to show clues, and it is not fast to help with the monthly pass!
