Chapter 208 The Forgotten Sisi

"I heard Sumitomo Yusuke was stunned by you?"

As soon as Tao Xi heard what Old Shay said, he had a constipated expression on his face.

Nila Tanden is a good girl everywhere, but she has a strong desire to fight when chatting with people.

Although she didn't feel it herself, Nelson, an honest person, had complained to him several times in private recently.

"Would you believe me if I said that I was innocent?"

Old Shay didn't answer Tao Xi's words, but shook his red wine glass lightly and took a sip: "I don't like this place very much."

Tao Xi felt the air in Tokyo and shook his head helplessly: "You, like Adams, like to say some vague words, are you really not interested in Sumitomo Bank?"

"But I won't lie to you, Adams will!"

"Sumitomo shares are up for grabs, and the stock market crash has had an impact on Wells Fargo as well."

Tao Xi saw the half-smile expression on Old Shay's face, and Tao Xi didn't know how to explain that he could perfectly judge the stock market crash.

Did he say he had a radio with future news?
Tao Xi firmly believed that if he said it, Old Shay would screw his head off and study that thing by himself.

"Next time, next time, next time if I find something again, I will take you with me. This time is actually a coincidence."

Old Shay was still smiling without saying a word, and Tao Xi immediately understood the situation.

It's not that Wells Fargo doesn't have richer money, but that old Shay is there waiting for him to give him favors.

"Hey, do you know why Prince's head is a bit dull?"

"It's not that he's not smart, it's just that he has some solidity." When Old Shay saw that Tao Xi was targeting his grandson, he immediately retorted.

"No, no, it's because you sucked away all the wisdom of your grandson!"

"I grew up in Chinatown, and there's a saying in Chinatown."

When Tao Xi saw the suspicious look on Old Shay's face, he was secretly delighted, and Tao Xi didn't give Old Shay a chance to respond: "Help me get the pledge of Sumitomo Bank's shares, I can sell you 2% of the shares .”

"I really can't figure it out. Since you think the shares of Sumitomo Bank are useless to you, why did you buy him at that time?"

"I'm just annoyed."

Tao Xi replied calmly, but Tao Xi's actions were not slow. He first asked someone to draw up the transfer contract, and then gave Old Shay a set of account numbers.

"Okay, okay, I understand. You are still a nominal shareholder of Sumitomo Bank, but I won't hold their shares for a long time. The economic situation in Japan is not very good now."

The two little foxes, one big and one small, finalized the share pledge agreement against Sumitomo Bank.

It's just that Old Shay didn't leave Tokyo immediately, but asked his driver to take him to a place in Kansai District.

Tao Xi didn't ask where exactly, but Tao Xi can finally carry out the acquisition of MGM.

Zhou Huimin, who had been on a business trip in Tokyo for a month, suddenly felt that there was nothing interesting here.

The street fighting in two days and two ends is no different from Hong Kong, and there are occasional street riots and gunfire here!

Zhou Huimin, who was already tired of being here, turned on the TV in boredom and kept flipping through the news on the TV.

[Welcome everyone to listen to TVB Tokyo Branch TV news.

Now it's up to me to report the news of the live program, here is the live broadcast of the Tokyo Stock Exchange.]

Lin Chuqi, who had just taken a bath, happily jumped onto the sofa and hugged Zhou Huimin's arm, then said coquettishly, "Hey! What are you doing!"

"Watching TV, it's really boring, but fortunately, I can go back tomorrow." Zhou Huimin replied helplessly pushing away Lin Chuqi who was trying to take advantage of her.

Lin Chuqi was stunned watching the picture on TV, and didn't say a word for a long time.

Zhou Huimin followed her gaze.

[Today, I had the honor to interview Mr. Tao Xi, the president and director of Panama Sunshine Commercial Bank: "Mr. Tao Xi, hello, I heard that your hometown is in Sichuan and Chongqing, right?"

"Well, yes, I'd love to see where my grandpa lived, but I've been out of time."

"Then can I ask, what do you plan to do next after acquiring MGM, one of the top eight Hollywood companies?"

Tao Xi on TV is very handsome.

The handsome suit and the indistinct temperament on the body made the two girls stunned.

"Sisi! Are you sure this man is the one we had dinner with that day?"

Zhou Huimin rubbed her eyes vigorously and replied uncertainly: "Maybe, if I'm not wrong, MGM should be one of the eight major film and television companies in Hollywood, right?"

"Well, Sisi, if you can hug his thigh and still worry about where to sign the contract, just a little money exposed between his fingers is enough for you to become a big star in Hong Kong!"

Tao Xi on TV shrugged his shoulders relaxedly when he heard the host's answer: "Do you know what is a talent show? The current American variety shows are really too boring, I will let MGM be in my Hands become a trend!"

When the host heard Tao Xi's words, he replied with a relaxed face: "Then I hope your idea can be realized!"

"You have 7 interviews left! Hold on."

Tao Xi nodded helplessly when he heard Kudo Shizuka's answer, and continued his news interview.

After being interviewed until the sky gradually darkened, Tao Xi let out a sigh of relief and muttered in a low voice: "It's really tiring to pretend to be b."

"We can go back, Nilta often asks me to go back to deal with the car factory these days."

"Go back, go back, there's no point here anymore."

When Marco heard Tao Xi's answer, he immediately jumped three feet high, and even the faces of several people around him showed a happy expression.

After all, in Tokyo, I don’t know the place well and I don’t have anyone to talk to. I either go out to bomb the streets or drive tanks every day, but I can’t change people.

There are five brand new Boeing planes parked at the huge Haneda International Airport.

This is a new toy that Tao Xi bought for himself this time. Ever since he drove a tank, he always feels that things like cars can no longer meet his needs.

Although it is second-hand, the interior and exterior are very neat.

If it wasn't for Shizuka Kudo who was still seeing him off from behind, maybe Tao Xi would go up and say hello to some beautiful Brazilian stewardesses.

"Okay! The trip to Tokyo is over. I'll give you a vacation. If you're going to Panama, go to Panama's special plane. If you're going to Nicaragua, get off the plane and line up. Anyway, I'm going back to California to rest for a while."

The forgotten Zhou Huimin took out the business card named Tao Xi and took a serious look at it the night before leaving Tokyo.

"Oh, Zhou Huimin, Zhou Huimin, you'd better go back and work hard, don't think about so many unrealistic things, and you have a boyfriend now!"

The economic situation is going down, and the first situation that appears is that the people at the bottom have no desire to consume for basic necessities of life.

The United States has shown this situation vividly. Under the influence of Black Monday, the unemployment rate fell by 2 points in a row, and then Hollywood's large-scale movies that were being shot lost their investors.

Walking on the street, Peter Lamont saw [Stop Shooting] cardboard everywhere and many old faces familiar to him began to run around looking for the crew to take him in, and he felt a little bored.

"Peter, I heard that MGM has been acquired?"

"Kalia, didn't you find a Middle Eastern oil businessman to invest in your movie? How did you get here?"

The old guy called Kalia has a full head of white hair, and he looks much older than Peter Lamont.

"Hey, Peter, the boss in the Middle East is rich, but the original contract required me to contribute 30% of the capital!"

"But all my money was lost in the stock market."

Cartier looked boredly at the recruitment notice posted at the gate of MGM Studios.

In the past few years, MGM Studios has been tossed back and forth by the gambling king of Las Vegas, almost killing MGM.

But fortunately, the group of conservatives at MGM has been insisting on carrying the pressure inside, so that the entire MGM Studios is guarded!
Sunshine Commercial Bank of Panama invested US$27 billion to acquire all of MGM Films + MGM Studios + MGM Cinemas, and assumed nearly 70% of MGM's liabilities.

Such a rich and powerful boss is no longer seen, and the other party did not send management personnel to airborne, but entrusted Peter Lamont, an old guy, as an honorary director to manage MGM Group.

"Cartier! I remember you had a good sense of variety at the time. Would you like to go to the newly established variety department of MGM Group?"

When Cartier heard the olive branch offered by Peter Lamont, his eyes lit up instantly.

"really?"

"Is it the draft that the boss who looted half of Tokyo said in front of the TV?"

Peter Lamont couldn't help rolling his eyes when he heard Cartier's description: "I advise you not to say a word in the film and television city, he is narrow-minded, be careful that he wears small shoes for you."

When Cartier heard Peter's dissuasion, he gestured a zipper very humorously.

"Peter, are you here to experience the people? Now you are a banner of the whole Hollywood!"

Peter Lamont was pleased to hear his old friend's praise.

If it weren't for the friendship he gave Tausi a few years ago, today's MGM doesn't know where he is next.

"Oh! Let me see, isn't this our Honorary Director?"

"Jerry! You're not staying at your Paramount, what are you doing at MGM!"

Jerry Bruckheimer was a little annoyed when he saw this smelly old man. Since Tao Xi left the United States, he had tried to cooperate with Neal Motors United Cinemas several times, but he had tried to kill him.

Fortunately, Tao Xi has not forgotten him, and Jerry Bruckheimer has the support of Old West this time.

"Wow, it looks like you're not happy about my presence here?"

Jerry Bruckheimer swayed an orange invitation letter in his hand and walked into MGM Studios proudly.

"Peter! Isn't he from Paramount? Did you invite him to the banquet today?"

"Idiot! He has a very good relationship with the wife of that big dog. The current film and television department is about whoever can be Sophie Marceau as the heroine, and whoever has the budget to make a movie!!!"

"Sophie Marceau's film appointments are already lined up for next year!"

"If he hadn't approved a budget of 1 million US dollars for the film and television department this time, I might have died in front of him."

Peter Lamont's last words were basically uttered through gritted teeth.

Cartier shrunk her neck as if she heard something she shouldn't have heard. It seems that the recent rumors in Hollywood that MGM has money is not so simple!

since Tokyo.

Tao Xi really enjoys having a group of employees behind him.

Walking on the outskirts of MGM Studios, which was under construction, Tao Xi put his little hands behind his back and looked at the grand scene around him with a figure of eight stride proudly.

The female secretary of the mayor of Burbank respectfully introduced the surrounding land prices to Tao Xi.

"Oh, how much is the land?"

"Mr. Taoxi, if you can start construction on this land in the next month, I can give you a [-]% discount."

Tao Xi immediately snapped his fingers when he heard the discount.

Hill behind his butt looked stupid and threw a suitcase towards the male secretary: "Hurry up."

The male secretary seemed to have gotten used to the habits of Tao Xi, an upstart.

After receiving the suitcase, the male secretary carried the suitcase and walked towards the escort vehicle behind him.

There were two financial officers sitting in the escort vehicle, and each of them was sweating profusely counting the amount in the suitcase with money counting paper.

'bo'

'pa'

"Sir, I don't know if the City Council of Burbank will reimburse our bank for the money counter. This is already the sixth money counter."

"Yes, sir, can you persuade Mr. Tao Xi to pay by cheque?"

The male secretary of the mayor of Burbank immediately changed his face when he heard the complaints from the two bank accountants: "You two idiots! I can ask the people from the Panama Bank to transfer the money to your New York Federal Reserve Bank. You guys are still negotiating conditions with me, believe it or not, I will replace you!"

The two staff members of the Federal Reserve Bank of New York lowered their heads and did not speak.

When the mayor of Burbank's male secretary walked towards Tao Xi, his face instantly turned into a happy expression.

After all, the largest land investment in Burbank is Panama Sunshine Commercial Bank.

In less than three days, they won 40 pieces of land and started construction on 20 of them.

As long as the construction starts, it will be employment. This is the time when Burbank can stand out in the whole of California. Whoever makes things difficult for Panama Industrial and Commercial Bank at this time is making things difficult for the entire Burbank City Council!
At this time, the entire Burbank is in motion, and their service object is Tao Xi!

As long as Tao Xi pointed in the direction, it was the battlefield of Burbank's entire city council!
As for the land occupied by a temporary crew, it's bullshit. Only land transactions and construction are the best way to recover from the economic recession!

After a busy day, Tao Xi returned home and looked at the green land around MGM Studios has been connected into one piece.

"Hahaha! What shit MGM Studios, I'm going to build a hot dog city!"

Sophie Marceau, who was drinking hot milk, spit out the milk in her mouth when she heard Taoxi's triumphant laughter.

"Could you please stop tossing about, tonight's banquet is about to start a fight between Jerry and Peter."

Tao Xi saw the milk at the corner of Sophie's mouth, so he directly printed his lips on it.

"Hey, you see what you said! Can my money be so easy to fool?"

"And I'm not a philanthropist. The current MGM Film and Television Group has long been firmly controlled by Peter. He was an artist before!"

"Where can artists make money? I'm really afraid that he will give me MGM as a place to train artists."

When Sophie Marceau heard Tao Xi's answer, she immediately retorted: "Movies are an art!"

"But art doesn't make money, Sophie! I spent nearly 50 billion on MGM. You dare not order me blindly. If there is no Jerry Bruckheimer, I might not buy MGM. .”

Sophie Marceau didn't care when she saw that her bedside wind had failed.

Really, as Tao Xi said, a business of nearly 50 billion US dollars really cannot depend on the advice of one or two people.
