Chapter 440: Spend money, or spend money!

You think I'm here to promote credit cards?

No, I'm creating a new life and bringing convenience to more people!

You think I'm fighting crime? Wrong, I'm promoting credit cards......

True and false, two things that seem to be unrelated, are often the two sides of the truth!

Sean thought it would be over after solving the difficulties that Sean Bank was currently experiencing, but in fact, just as Sean was about to run away, Pete Chernin came to the door.

Too much business is not good, even if it is a hands-off shopkeeper, the actual workload is also very large.

"The 24-hour news station of the new century has begun to operate, and for now, it is quite stable." Pete Chernin came up with good news.

For this 24-hour news station, Sean didn't have much hope, not to mention Fox's 24-hour news station's first-mover advantage, News Corp.'s global media network allowed them to leave others far behind in terms of news professionalism and timeliness.

The new century still needs to catch up slowly.

"So what......" Sean raised an eyebrow, Chelsea would rather not talk nonsense.

"So, what's the focus of our news station?" Pete Chernin pondered and said: "Any TV station has its own focus, such as youth, such as serious news, such as entertainment, etc., on the news station, Fox focuses on 24-hour international news, emphasizing timeliness, seriousness, neutrality, so, what about us? ”

Sean frowned, it seems that a form of expression does not matter, but in fact, this is the key to the life and death of a TV station.

There are many TV stations in the United States, including New Century, Fox, ABC, etc., and the biggest advantage is in coverage, and there are many more small local TV stations that can survive and have their own unique skills.

Therefore, the opponents of the new century are not only big TV stations such as Fox and ABC, but also those small local stations that are as many as stars.

First of all, you have to snatch the user from the small stage, or the boss and the second boss fight and beat the third to death.....

"In our new century, the whole is youth-oriented, and from the first day of our establishment, our propaganda has been biased towards the storm of youth." Sean pondered, "So, I mean, the news aspect also has to be in line with our overall character. ”

"A serious one came out of a group of youth-oriented, entertaining programs, which was too abrupt."

"We also report the news, but if we want to report from a ridiculous point of view, such as the previous Malay government incident, Fox's reporting direction is racial discrimination, turning back history, backwardness, ignorance, then our reporting direction can be to select a top 10 bad government in the world this year."

"Under what circumstances is such a stupid policymaking made?"

"Did you have any childhood shadows?"

"When an avatar appears on the news, you can enlarge your head a little bit, which will make people look more stupid....

"See what I mean?" Sean tilted his head to look at Chernin. Chernin looked at Sean with a suddenly cheerful look, "The news is entertaining, boss, I have to say, you *** is a genius!" ”

"It's just that we're going to have to work hard as an editor, and I guess we're going to have to lose a lot of hair.

"Hahaha, add a chicken leg to them, or you can go to Hollywood and dig up a few editors who write comedies, whatever you want, I'm sure you can handle it!" Sean smiled and said, "Okay, now you can say the true purpose of your coming to me." ”

"Haha, haha." Chernin smiled and touched his nose, "That's it, boss, there is still a need for an appropriation here in the new century." ”

"Piu Bright!" Sean rolled his eyes, "I fucking know, what's going on?" ”

"The sports channel and the movie and TV series channel you mentioned." Chernin was concise and to the point.

"How much more do you need to invest in your budget?" Sean asked with a calm expression.

Don't ask, ask is rich!

Half a year ago, I just earned 2 billion, and I haven't spent it yet, and this time Sean Bank is going to use free money for expansion, and now I still have 1.2 billion cash in hand.

Well, it's the 35 billion credit limit brought by credit cards, financial instruments or something, Monroe they use (this chapter is not finished!) )

Chapter 440: Spend money, or spend money!

There was no ambiguity at all, and Sean was shocked to watch.

This time, the investments in Microsoft, Oracle, and AOL were all made with Sean Bank's money.

Sean doesn't understand, what about the net investment so far, not a penny has been earned back for him, the accounts are loss-making, how can there be money for foreign investment?

Sean can't figure out how finances are done, anyway, it's right not to make money, and he doesn't have to pay taxes......

For not paying taxes, Sean has no psychological burden at all, and in particular, he doesn't make a penny from Sean's bank!

Why pay taxes!

The reason why the name of Sean Bank is used for this investment is, in Shen Bi's words: Since you are so optimistic about these companies, then of course you are using Sean Bank to control them, as a shareholder bank, it is no problem for them to change the settlement bank to Sean Bank, right?

Thinking about the amount of money flowing in these companies in the future, Sean immediately agreed.

He now understands a little bit of what a financial institution is!

The bank never earns a little bit of handling fees, the bank wants a large amount of money flow, as long as a dollar flows in the bank, the bank dares to spend it as ten dollars!

"The preliminary estimate is that another 1.5 billion is needed." Chernin glanced at Sean secretly and said softly.

"Fake, so much?" Sean was startled and bounced out of his chair with a thud.

"It's mostly broadcast contracts from the big four leagues." Chernin quickly stood up and explained: "The result of the current negotiations is that every family will sign it every four years. ”

"The current contracts for the broadcast of the four major leagues are signed every four years, the broadcast contracts for baseball and football are about 120 million per year, and the broadcast contracts for ice hockey and basketball are a little lower, at 80 million."

"And then there's college games, football, baseball, basketball, and college games that aren't going to be cheaper than the professional leagues."

As we all know, college leagues are pure, hot-blooded sports that do not contain any impurities, and athletes who participate in college events are also prohibited from receiving any form of compensation.

To sum up, athletes in college events are not allowed to take a penny.

The water of business is too deep for you students to grasp, so leave it to the university to grasp.

The NCAA, for example, earns $1.1 billion a year with tears. What is pure basketball?

"Every year, we invest $800 million in broadcasting fees, and we also have to build new broadcasting lines, program planning, staffing, etc., so we ......"

"What do you mean, this 1.5 billion is not enough for you?" The corners of Sean's mouth twitched.

You fucking burn money, it's really burning!

"It should be, probably, probably, almost enough." Chernin said with no confidence at all, "Theoretically, the sports station can bring in a lot of income every year." ”

Heh, Sean rolled his eyes widely, I won't laugh at you if you say something with a little confidence.

However, Chernin is really not sure.

For the first time in the U.S. television market, a dedicated sports cable premium channel.

In the past, it was all free public channels for live broadcasts in the United States, but there were very few live broadcasts, and professional paid sports channels were small local channels.

However, Sean is still somewhat confident, after all, he remembers that in 2016, the NBA signed a broadcast contract of 9 years and 24 billion US dollars.

This rate of increase is explosive, which means that the sports station does make money and makes a lot of money, otherwise the broadcast contract will not go crazy.

So, all Sean can say is to give money...... It's just that I don't have any money in my hand, damn it!

Thinking of the NBA's gradually exploding income, Sean remembered that he wanted to buy the New York Knicks, but where did the money come from?

When it comes to acquiring NBA teams, Sean thinks of Paul. Allen, a new good chicken friend, is also an avid sports fan.

So how much does it cost to buy the New York Knicks plus Madison Garden Plaza?

Damn Farke!

I don't know if I tell Shen Bi now that I will mobilize one billion from Sean Bank, will Shen Bi kill himself?

For a while, (this chapter is not finished!) )

Chapter 440: Spend money, or spend money!

Sean's expression was a little dazed, which made Chernin next to him feel a little bottomless, what do you mean, give money or not!

After a long time, when Sean came back to his senses, he found that Chernin was looking at him with eyes like a little hook, and that look made Sean couldn't help but shudder.

"Okay, okay, the money will be given to you when I get back." Sean said a little speechlessly.

"Okay, boss, then I'll be fine." Chernin suddenly laughed reassuringly.

When Sean comes, the money comes!

Sending away Chernin, who was asking for money, Sean sat alone in place, squinting and playing with the ...... next to him with one hand

Thinking, thinking, Sean pinched it hard, and a painful sound sounded next to him......

If you are a dignified boss, do you still have to consider the mood of your subordinates?

What bullshit Shen Bi, just old, wave your hand to extinguish it! What is money?

Money is a bastard! Let's earn it after spending it!

I've got it for Niko, and Jesus can't stop it!

As soon as he thought of it, Sean called Dolan with a phone call.

"You're going to buy the Knicks?" Dolan looked at Sean with a confused expression, but he didn't expect Sean's first words when they met him was this.

"Yes, I love the NBA, and New York is close to me." Sean wrapped his arms around Dolan's neck, "How about it, sell it to me!" ”

"Not ....."

.” The corners of James Dolan's mouth twitched, "You're too sudden." ”

"If there's anything sudden, you just say it's over if you don't sell it!" Sean looked impatient.

"I ......," said James Dolan with a puzzled expression.

"First, I can't be the master of this, I want my dad to say it, and second, our family doesn't have full ownership of the Knicks."

Sean's eyes suddenly lit up and looked at Dolan, "How many shares are there outside?" ”

"Uh...... 10%。 Dolan said, tilting his head.

Sean's face suddenly darkened, you take out that little bit of shares and say a fart.

However, after Dolan's reminder, Sean remembered that the Dolan family took full ownership of the Knicks in 97, and after an equity transaction, he finally made up $30 million.

However, in many media reports, it became that the Dolan family bought the Knicks for 30 million...... In his previous life, he once made Sean believe it, but later he knew that he had been deceived when he learned that the Buss family spent 67 million to buy the ownership of the Lakers team in 1979!

"Then ask your father, how much is willing to sell!" Sean stabbed Dolan with his elbow.

"Do you have to buy it?"

"I have to buy it!"

"It's expensive!" Dolan probed.

"Rich!" Sean pursed his mouth, his face full of indifference.

"Okay, I'll ask." Dolan shrugged, Dolan is still a playboy now, not the Knicks boss yet. Two days later......

When Dolan came to Kashima to tell Sean about the price, Sean was stupid.

"No, how much?" Sean felt he had misheard, raised his hand and plucked his ear, and asked again.

"800 million!" Dolan repeats it again.

"Are you crazy or am I crazy!" Sean yelled at Dolan: "I'm not stupid, okay, the Portland Trail Blazers who just got traded this year are only 70 million!" ”

"Big brother, you also said, it's Portland, Portland cornfield, that's in Maine!" Dolan spread his hands and said innocently: "This is New York, the largest city in the world, and that is the New York Knicks, the best basketball team in the United States!" ”

"We've won the championship twice, and Madison is a basketball Mecca, it's a holy place!"

"The best teams are the Celtics and the Los Angeles Lakers!" Sean rolled his eyes.

"The Buss family bought the Lakers for 70 million when they bought them in ten years, and besides, they will never sell the Lakers, all their investments are in sports, and the Boston consortium will not allow the Celtics to be bought by others!" Dolan shrugged, not to mention anything in business negotiations.

Although Dolan is now a gentleman, his basic qualities are not bad at all.

(This chapter is not finished!) )

Chapter 440: Spend money, or spend money!

"That's too expensive, it's twelve times that of the Trail Blazers, can the Lakers' market value rise so much in ten years!" Sean slapped his forehead hard, "Damn it! ”

"The bull is cheap, and it was sold for 16 million three years ago." Dolan shrugged his shoulders and said with envy: "That guy earned it, they chose a good one, Jordan's kid played really well, and now the value of the bull has increased at least 3 times!" ”

"Don't yell at me, this is my father's decision, and besides, I never thought about selling the team." Dolan muttered, "You have to buy it, and I don't know what's good." ”

Sean sat there and rubbed his head.

Previously, he estimated that the Knicks were worth 300 million at most, but he never expected it.

800 million!

is an auspicious number.

Sean suspects that excluding the Los Angeles Lakers, New York Knicks, and Celtics, all the other NBA teams are worth 800 million combined!

He has a kind of simply changing teams to buy it, such as the Bulls, Jordan is still a newcomer, and 100 million can definitely be smashed from Jerry's hands, but Sean can't live in that hellish place in Chicago at all.

Or smash the Lakers?

Well, the Lakers are not estimated to be much cheaper, the Buss family was enough to buy the Lakers when the Lakers were in a trough, and after 9 years of purchase, they won 5 championships, and their market value rose wildly......

It is foreseeable that in the financial era, finance controls the world, so Sean's main residence must be in New York, the world's largest financial center.

Besides, Rockefeller's roots are also in New York, and he will inevitably take charge of Rockefeller in the future.

As for Old Man David......

That's just an old man working for myself!! So, is it a loss to buy the Knicks for 800 million?

From the perspective of investment, it must be a loss, 800 million, and now what Sean is doing, the future value is far more than that of the Nix, several times, more than ten times.

But if you want to talk about losses...... Sean frowned and thought about it for a long time, and it didn't seem to be a loss.

After all, he didn't invest money, but something!

Land in Pudong is still very cheap, but can Sean go for a large-scale acquisition?

Obviously not, and the governments of the East are not stupid ..

The last time I bought a palace in the capital, it was already the bottom line.

Going to the east to develop real estate on a large scale or something, not to mention whether Sean is interested or not, the east side will not agree.

The purpose of opening up the market is to exchange the market for technology, not to make money for you, and large real estate companies have almost no foreign capital.

Of course, in principle, it is not prohibited, in fact, there are only Hong Kong capital, Sun Hung Kai, Cheung Kong, Wheelock, Henderson, Hang Lung, New World and so on.

However, Sean can get his hands dirty through the Asian Investment Bank and through the Chinese in Southeast Asia.

Many other lucrative investments are either not timed at the right time, or they simply don't qualify for it.

What the investment market lacks is never capital, what is lacking is valuable projects, funds or something, banks are too ......

After all, it is a place where 10,000 yuan can be used as 100,000 million dollars.

It's like the money that Sean invested in Microsoft and Oracle before, because the settlement bank was changed to Sean Bank, and in the end, most of it still had to circulate within the bank, but it was not spent at all.

Of course, the premise is not to fail in investment, and if you fail, you will still be considered a loss.

Picking out his ears, Sean stomped his feet ruthlessly, damn, Lao Tzu worked so hard to grab so much money, and he can't fucking spend some money on his hobbies?

Spend a little, even if it's ......

All the money that has been so hard to grab over the years has been fucking invested in the gang under him, and when it comes to enjoyment, there is nothing but a deer island and a palace in the sky.

The more Sean thought about it, the more he felt aggrieved, he stood up suddenly, his eyes widened, and he stared at Dolan viciously, which scared Dolan and shuddered, "What are you doing, it's none of my business, you are not satisfied with you going to beat my dad, it is he who wants to call the price quoted like this, not me!" ”

Sean: "......"

A good father and son are filial, too filial.

"Tell me my father, 800 million, I agreed, I won't bargain with him, but I must get the rest of the messy equity, (this chapter is not finished!) )

Chapter 440: Spend money, or spend money!

I want a complete Knicks, and I want him to help me get Martin Davis from Gulf Western Industries, and I'm going to buy the ownership of Madison Square Gardens, including the land! ”

"I, Sean, won't use someone else's arena!" Sean gritted his teeth, and he didn't know that he thought he was going to eat people.

How could Sean really be willing to be the boss just to take down the Knicks, he had his eye on the land of Madison Garden.

By the way, when Mitsubishi Real Estate acquired Rockefeller Center, it bought the property and management rights of the building, not the land, which is much more expensive than the building......

Sean Bank has entered the top 100 financial institutions in the United States, and it is a certainty to go further, so the construction of a global headquarters is necessary, a manifestation of strength, just like the boss's car.

I used to plan to take a piece of land through the Chinese gang in Chinatown, but it is still slowly accumulating, very slowly.

There is no way about this, the global financial center of gravity is in New York, and the center of gravity of New York is in Manhattan, and land is so scarce.

The ownership of Madison Square Square changed hands several times, and each time he moved, a skyscraper would be built on the same site, and Sean took a fancy to this.

Is there anything that isn't profitable to develop real estate in Manhattan, New York? Why move three times if you really don't make money?

Can someone else move? I Sean can't move?

Besides, there are a lot of real estate developed by Rockefeller in New York, not to mention the famous Rockefeller Center, including the New York Port Authority of New York, the builder of the World Trade Tower, and the investors behind the Port Authority of New York and New Jersey are also the Rockefeller family.

Today, Madison Gardens is in the hands of Gulf Western Industries, and Martin Davis is Paramount's parent company.

Of course, Sean knew Martin Davis, and we had met a few times, but it was a drain on people to buy the ownership of Madison from the other party.

Old Dolan made a lot of money from him, and of course this matter was handed over to Old Dolan to be responsible.

The most difficult thing to repay is the debt of love.

Dolan looked at Sean in shock, with an incredulous expression, "No, you really agreed?" ”

"Crazy, 800 million, what's not to do?" Dolan looked at Sean with a puzzled expression, "You're really decided?" I don't feel worth it for you! ”

Sean secretly rolled his eyes, Dolan is a good person, especially a true friend!

It's the kind that really sticks a knife in the ribs for a friend.,Except for the brain is not very good.,There's no shortcoming......

"Yes, I decided, I like it after all." Sean smiled and put his arm around Dolan's shoulders and said with a nonchalant expression: "Making so much money, you can't just think about work, work, or fucking work every day, right?" ”

"You always have to enjoy life, isn't it to work hard to make money to make yourself happier?"

"I love basketball and I can't play it, so I can buy it and have a bunch of NBA superstars play around me!"

"I'll just ask you, if I go to the basket, does he dare to stop the gorilla!" Sean said with an 'arrogant' face!

Dolan shook his head, thought about it seriously and said, "Don't you dare, more than a dozen big men with submachine guns on the sidelines are looking at it, he must be afraid of death!" Even if you don't score a layup, he will give you a rebound, and then hold you, let you dunk a hard button on top of his head, and fall to the ground with a bang and let out the wail of a defeated dog. ”

Otherwise, can you still give Sean a fucking basketball dream?

Sean's face turned black on the spot, you know it, it's annoying to say it!

After that, the two laughed, in front of the gorilla Ewing, Sean is such a small one, that scene is funny to think about.

Dolan left, went back to find his father, and he still agreed with Sean's words, people, the most important thing is to be happy.

If you like it, then do it, it doesn't matter how much it costs.

I don't know if this guy will regret it when the market value of the Knicks rises to 5 billion in the future.

Of course, the cash available now can also be invested, and the situation of the Dolan family is different from Sean's.

To put it mildly, the Dolan family has only been inherited for a long time, with limited assets and limited cash flow, and Rockefeller or Sean will feel that large sums of money have nowhere to go, they won't.

Sean: They don't look down on investment projects and separate out (this chapter is not finished!). )

Chapter 440: Spend money, or spend money!

's assets, in Dolan, a small family with only more than a billion assets, is already a very good investment project.

For example, Sean sold most of the correctional education companies and those construction-related companies.

Charles Dolan was also a little dumbfounded when he heard his son say that Sean actually agreed, no, you really bought it!

800 million, he felt that he had opened his mouth, but now it seems that he still wants to be less......

Tangled!

Sean lay on the sofa and made a very comfortable *** sound, I don't know why, the money was spent again, but the whole person relaxed......
