When night falls, New York is still bustling.

The Ritz-Carlton Hotel in south Manhattan was hosting a Christmas reception, and by the time Cang and Giselle Bundchen arrived, there were already quite a few people there.

The Ritz-Carlton is a beautiful hotel with views of New York Harbor and the Statue of Liberty.

The host of this reception is not Cang Yaozu, but Ronald Perelman, so Cang Yaozu comes early or late, and it is not a big problem.

Cang Yaozu and Perelman exchanged a few words and walked into the venue. He took Ji Niangniang to shuttle through the crowd, the speed was not fast, very leisurely, and from time to time he handed out a business card, his business card was printed with the vice president of Legendary Pictures, the director of Marvel Studios, well, this is considered to have entered the Hollywood circle.

Gisele Bundchen now knew that Cang Yaozu was only a little more than a year older than him, and he was only 18 years old this year, and he watched the teenager communicate with the guests at the reception with ease, and bursts of laughter could be heard from time to time. His English is so good, I don't know how he learned it.

If Cang Yaozu knew what Ji Niangniang was thinking, he would tell her that he learned English by sleeping and dreaming, and since Cang Yaozu began to dream of a female alien, his body has changed, first his voice, he can freely change the sound quality and timbre pitch, which is very magical.

Then there is the body, and every muscle of the body seems to be under his complete control, and there is a perfect fit. Another change in the past month is his language ability, English seems to have become his mother tongue, and he can read aloud without hindrance.

"Mr. Cal Icahn, can you have a chat?" said Cang Yaozu to Karl Icahn in front of him, although he is 60 years old, he is the legendary Wolf of Wall Street.

Despite being labelled a "corporate attacker," Carl Icahn considers himself a "shareholder defender." He bought large quantities of shares of listed companies that were performing below expectations, and then reminded the board of directors and executives that it was time to step up and perform well or they would face a war for control of the board.

As a result, Calicahn is actually more of a catfish, struggling around to keep companies that are negatively developing alive.

"Who are you, do I know you?" Karl Icahn looked at Cang Yaozu and Giselle Bundchen beside him, and realized that he didn't know the two young men.

Cang Yaozu asked Ji Niangniang to get him some food.

Ji Niangniang understood that Cang Yaozu didn't want to eat, but wanted to talk to Carl Icahn alone, so she turned around and walked away.

"Mr. Karl Ikan, I think you are a respectable person, you are like a catfish who is trying to stir around every day to keep those companies that are negatively developing alive, and I think the government should award you a medal for outstanding contribution. ”

"Although your respect is worthless, I also think that the government should award me a medal for outstanding service. Young man, your girlfriend is a model, I can tell. My first girlfriend was a beautiful model, and that was a long time ago. ”

"Yes, can I call you Carl? Carl, you have a good eye, but I don't agree with your approach, you want to sell all the Marvel heroes in exchange for the growth of Marvel stock, so that you can cash out.

Your approach is a devastating blow to Marvel, those heroes wandering outside, it will be very difficult, why do they wander around, just because their families are poor?"

"Call it however you want, I don't care. I don't think so, superheroes go out to work to earn money to support their Marvel dad, shouldn't they?"

"That's what Marvel used to do, but it wasn't doing well. Selling a superhero can be exchanged for millions of dollars, which can't solve any problems at all, and as for box office sharing, it's even more of a floating cloud. ”

"That's not thorough enough, I'll do an auction, and the highest bidder wins. Hollywood is going crazy, haha. ”

"Auction? That's a great idea, but you don't have a chance, I got the majority of Marvel's equity and bonds, and I've got a controlling stake in Marvel. ”

"It's you, it's you kid who is grabbing chips with me these days? Marvel belongs to you? No way, Perelman won't be so stupid, give Marvel to you, he won't get anything. ”

"No, Carl, it's you who don't get anything. If I don't give Marvel to me, I'll let Marvel go around in debt, spend a lot of money, buy back those superheroes with a lot of money, and then increase the treatment of signed painters, and issue a lot of new shares. Cang Yaozu listed one countermeasure after another, and every time he said one, Karl Icahn's face became ugly.

"Boy, are you threatening me?" Cal Icahn suppressed his anger.

"No, I'm just saying the fact that I'm going to do it, it's hard to make money, it's easy to lose money.

Carl, I don't want to get to this point, you're a billionaire and you should be saving more businesses and making more money, instead of wasting time and energy on this little company. I'm willing to buy your Marvel shares and bonds at a premium. ”

"How did you really control Marvel? How did you convince old Perelman that guy?"

"Of course it's money, he's already made a lot of money on Marvel, it's time to stop it. If Marvel is crippled, then the majority of Marvel fans will scold him to death. ”

"So Perelman gave Marvel to you?a foreigner?are you from Sakura?or from Huaxia?" Carl Icahn roared, not too loud, but very imposing, and many people in the distance were looking this way.

Cang Yaozu had no choice but to take Karl Icahn to a secluded place, and by the way, let the old man lower his anger, and then spoke: "I am so tall, of course I am from Huaxia. I've been working with Jews from several companies lately, and we Chinese and Jews are best friends and have a deep friendship, and the first company I invested in was a software company in Tel Aviv. I hope we can be friends too. ”

"Oh, little one, I said something before, and I'll say it to you again, if you want to find a friend, then go get a dog. People like us don't need friends. ”

I'm rubbing, Cang Yaozu complained in his heart, isn't this a line in "The Wolf of Wall Street"? It's really this old guy who said it, it seems that there are really a lot of shadows of him in this movie, and I don't know if this line has given him copyright fees?

Cang Yaozu said: "Cool, Carl, your words are so cool, I admire you very much, why don't I take you as the prototype and shoot a movie of "The Wolf of Wall Street"?"

"No, are you making movies or venture capitalists? The little girl from Panda Capital I just met is your person?"

"Yes, Carl, Panda Capital is mine, please keep it a secret for me. I'm a film investor, and I'm going to spend $200 million on Marvel's first film. Although the risk is a bit big, but who makes me like it, I want to make "Iron Man", what do you think? Marvel is a small pool, why don't we buy MGM, if you think MGM is broken, then we will buy Disney, what do you think?"

"200 million dollars to make a movie, are you crazy? The acquisition you said is not very good, MGM is too broken, Disney is too strong, I can't eat more than 50 billion Disney, I will choke to death." Who is Iron Man, and why not a bug?"

"Hehe, you and old Perelman are very much on the same page. Iron Man is a small hero of Marvel, many people don't know him, he is a super rich second generation, is it a bit like old Perelman, haha, I think in the Marvel world, except for Black Panther, Iron Man is the richest, and being rich is justice, so I chose to shoot Iron Man first.

Spider-Man's special effects are too difficult to do, I estimate that I have to invest a lot of money, I don't have money now, maybe I will be able to shoot Spider-Man in two years. Let's go back to MGM, MGM is also one of the eight if it is broken, and there are three catties of nails for breaking the ship. A 007 series can make a lot of money. Let's go through a leveraged buyout together, and I can buy your shares in full ownership after I get my hands. Carl, how's it going?"

"It's not impossible, who's going to shoot 007?

"You can't learn, it's not that difficult, the director only needs to control the overall situation, and there are assistant directors and photographers for shooting. The 007 series definitely makes money, I won't do anything that doesn't make money, and this thing is very meaningful, let's get MGM in our hands, and then put it on the market, so that Leo the Lion roars Hollywood again, isn't this good?"

"I'm thinking about it, let's see if it's worth it? Marvel I can give it to you, of course the premium is a must, I don't have a precedent for losing money. Cal Icahn breathed a sigh of relief.

"No problem, I'll let Melissa finalize the deal with you. ”

"By the way, what did you offer Perelman Sr.?" asked Cal Icahn.

"I gave him $50 million and a little bit of my stake in other companies. But old Perelman was very interesting, he invested 500 million US dollars in my private equity fund, saying that I wanted me to make more money for him, Carl, why don't you vote for me too? ”

"Yes, then I invested 500 million US dollars in your fund, so did you also invest 500 million in my fund? Eggs can't be put in one basket, this is what you said, don't tell me you don't believe this?"

"Well, old Perelman told me, saying that the average annualized return of your fund is more than 30%, but I want to invest in real estate acquisition companies or something, I put the money with you, and I still engage in private equity funds. ”

"You're right, I think so, little one. ”

"Okay, let's settle the matter of Marvel, you can think about the acquisition of MGM later, just call me, this is my business card. When the time comes, let's act together and snatch the old lion home to have a few more litters. ”

After leaving Karl Icahn, Cang Yaozu met Wu Xiupo and Zhang Ziyi, he explained some things to the two of them, these two people will be the focus of Cang Yaozu's training, and directly take the international route, Wu Xiupo first filmed "The Hangover", and then filmed "Iron Man", Zhang Ziyi waited for Ang Lee's side to vacate the schedule, and began the filming of "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon".

Wu Xiupo is okay, he knows Cang Yaozu's style better. Zhang Ziyi is not very calm, when she heard that "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon" is a film that rushes to the Olympics, and the starring roles are Chow Yun-fat and Michelle Yeoh, the beauty in her heart, after the beauty, she was a little panicked, this guy won't fall in love with me, right?

Zhang Ziyi was called out of the class by someone from the hexahedron brokerage company, and then hurriedly took a plane to Citigroup, and then packed up and participated in the reception with Wu Xiupo.

Zhang Ziyi is very lucky, glad that she signed a contract with a hexahedron agency, which is really a large international company, and she can actually arrange for her to participate in an Olympic film, who can compare with such a debut film.

Cang Yaozu has already gone out, Zhang Ziyi is still in a daze, Wu Xiupo can only pull her, and the two of them walked towards the crowd, tonight's opportunity is rare, they want to socialize more and meet some friends.

Wu Xiupo and Zhang Ziyi are both students of Huaju, and they can be regarded as seniors, and they can be regarded as taking care of each other. Principal Gu Ruxia still has a lot of complaints about Cang Yaozu's choice of two Chinese operas instead of Yan Ying's students to star in Hollywood movies, but these two people are really suitable, besides, these two are both hexahedron signed artists, so they have to take care of it, and the view of the portal is really deadly.
