Wanton God's Life Records

Chapter 883 Under the turbulent public opinion, what is covered up is...

“TIKTOK topped the download list of fruit apps!”

"Li made a live broadcast and created a god-level APP!"

"The era of short videos is coming, and countless stars are joining..."

Li Yue and Arien broadcast live until 5 p.m. and shut down the live broadcast before dinner. However, the star effect he brought spread at the speed of light. On this day, TIKTOK topped the daily download list of major application markets. At the same time, , countless Hollywood stars have settled in, which has already had a diffusion effect. More and more people are starting to use this short video APP, causing the download volume to rise crazily...

However, Li Yue's love for TIKTOK ended here. He enjoyed a candlelight dinner with Arian in a low-key manner, and then took her back to his flat on Billionaires' Avenue in New York to enjoy the Estee Lauder CEO's presence. Like water and tenderness.

Early the next morning, Arianne learned her lesson, got up early to clean up, and quietly left for work. Even Li Yue's charm could not stop her workaholic personality.

In this regard, Li Yole's leisurely and comfortable attitude even feels good, because there are too many women around him, and what he hates most is the type of people who don't stick to each other.

In addition, because of the popularity of TIKTOK, what is hidden under the turbulent public opinion is Li Yue's big plan, which is being implemented secretly and has reached the final stage...

At 10 o'clock in the morning, Li Yue came to the PLAY building, and Peng Shiliu put a data file in front of him:

"This is the shares of Twentieth Century Fox held by us including P Fund, PLAY Group, you personally, and the acting shareholder Sifang. As of now, we already hold 67.8% of the shares of Twentieth Century Fox. It is slightly lower than the 75% target value of absolute control, but once the shareholders’ meeting is convened, you can immediately obtain the management rights, and there is a high probability that you can get the support of some shareholders and obtain absolute control.”

"In terms of share value, since you signed the share transfer agreement with Buffett, the price of Twentieth Century Fox in the stock market has gone from bad to worse. It plummeted 20% in three days without even a decent rebound. Today is the fourth day. So far, we have acquired about 10% of low-priced chips through various acquisition channels. Overall, if calculated based on the current market value, we still have a floating loss of 13%..."

"PLAY Finance has set up a trading team for this purpose. The acquisitions in the self-circulating stock market are completed by them. Now you only need to give an order, and we will release good news, increase the stock price, and make up for the losses... "

After listening to Peng Shiliu's introduction, Li Yue waved his hand: "It's not time to raise the stock price and so on. As an assistant to the board of directors of P Fund, you issued a notice to [-]th Century Fox to inform us of our current holdings. number of shares and request a board meeting!”

"Yes!"

Controlling [-]th Century Fox is Li Yue's top priority in the near future. When Peng Shiliu sent the notice to [-]th Century Fox, the latter responded immediately and decided to hold a new round of shareholders' meeting tomorrow morning.

After receiving the news, Li Yue secretly met with Robert Iger again in the afternoon. The difference from the past was that this time not only Robert Iger came alone, but as soon as he met, he warmly embraced Li Yue and praised him. : "President, your operation on [-]th Century Fox is truly admirable, and I would like to express my sincere respect to you."

Under the effect of the last "loyalty card", Robert Egger naturally became a close friend like Wilson Lee.

This prop will produce different effects depending on the intersection between different people and Li Yue. Wilson-Lee and Li Yue have no obvious intersection, so the effect is slightly worse. They "only" became friends. Robert Egger was created by Li Yue. P Foundation and became Li Yue's subordinate, so he used the title "President".

"I need an absolute controlling stake in [-]th Century Fox. I'm still not satisfied with the current progress. Disney has been infiltrating it for a long time. Do you have any good suggestions?"

Li Yue asked directly that the target of the loyalty card would not lose his intelligence. As a man who has controlled Disney for more than ten years, Robert Egger has extremely rich experience in this regard.

"We can create some panic. In addition, we need to output it to specific targets, such as those shareholders who still exist at Twentieth Century Fox. Large shareholders have many sources of information and may not be able to influence them, but small shareholders will be affected by the current situation. The situation caused him to misjudge and sell his shares."

The small shareholders of [-]th Century Fox are also billionaires in North America, and only a boss of Robert Iger's level can say something like this to cause them to misjudge.

Later, he explained his thoughts to Li Yue in detail: Disney has penetrated Twentieth Century Fox for many years, and naturally has many senior executives. Small shareholders may not be affected by outside information, but they will definitely be affected by these senior executives.

Even at the end of the conversation, Robert Iger issued instructions to a certain executive in front of Li Yue. Half an hour later, the media broke the news that Twentieth Century Fox executives were having fierce infighting. A certain vice president He had a disagreement with the company's CEO and threatened to resign from the company.

The bad news caused the company's stock price to fall further. Later, some people on Wall Street jumped out to badmouth Twentieth Century Fox, saying that with the development of Hollywood, the industry has begun to decline and it no longer has the ability to make money for shareholders. With the competition, As the competition becomes more intense, [-]th Century Fox, the weakest among the six major players, will be the first to fall.

In the afternoon of the same day, Disney broke the "violent news". At the bidding meeting for the auction of the company's animation character peripheral licenses, major toy manufacturers collectively joined forces to force Disney to lower the copyright price. In the end, Disney was unwilling to compromise and sold a package of animation worth 5 million. Character peripheral copyrights were forced to stop licensing.

Only people in the economic field will pay attention to this kind of thing, and after paying attention, the first reaction must be "Hollywood is really going downhill." Even the most profitable peripherals have begun to shut down. So it is conceivable that production What ending will the movie face.

Ten minutes before the stock market closed that day, a large amount of money began to aggressively short-sell Twentieth Century Fox. The stock price, which had already dropped 10% that day, plummeted to 8% in just 10 minutes. The stock price hit a 15-year low for Fox!
After the stock market closed, countless economic media began to comment on the matter. None of them were optimistic about Fox's future development. There was even an expert from Wall Street who swore that Fox's stock price would still plummet and, based on its current value, would eventually be cut in half. No amount of cutting it in half is too much!

As soon as these remarks appeared, they once again caused panic in the market. Twentieth Century Fox continued to plummet after the market closed, and the futures market plummeted 20% in one day. This was based on the fact that it had been falling for an extremely long time. It can be said that, A large number of people who originally held stocks now just want to run away like crazy and sell as much as they can, regardless of the price!

Under such circumstances, Li Yue had a lot of good news. In just one afternoon, three small shareholders were willing to sell their shares to Fund P, and the price of the family was only slightly higher than the market price!

What Li Yue didn't expect was that even Jess Brian received a sale intention. At dinner that day, he excitedly submitted a share transfer contract to Li Yue. The price was actually rare. Even lower than the market price.

"Judd Cooper?! It's this guy, no wonder he didn't look for me..."

Li Yue burst out laughing when he saw the name on the contract. He was the husband of Her Royal Highness the Princess. During the Li Haixin incident, the New York Observer Weekly, owned by Judd Cooper, actively reported and tracked it and said all the bad things about Li Yue. Later, Li Yue specifically spoke to Her Royal Highness the Princess, and the New York Observer's attitude softened slightly, but only because by that time, PLAY security had already disclosed evidence one after another, and the direction of public opinion had been reversed.

It can be said that this guy is an enemy of Li Yue in North America.

"Judd Cooper sold a total of about 5% of Fox shares. This was a big deal, and it was a liquidation sale. He also showed me a power of attorney. A large part of the shares came from the Cooper family. and his wife’s family.”

Hearing Jace Brian's explanation, Li Yue raised his eyebrows: "His wife's family? Is it Imanka and Chuanpu?"

"Yes, that's the famous real estate developer. He has publicly participated in the election... Of course, in the face of powerful opponents, Chuan Pu has no hope." Speaking of Chuan Pu, Jess Bryan seemed to be saying A joke that even makes me laugh out loud.

Li Yue did not laugh, because he suddenly realized that he had forgotten about Chuan Pu: Although he had promised to provide campaign funds to Chuan Pu when he met Imanka for the first time, he later failed to meet Judd because of the - Cooper was on bad terms, and his relationship with Immanka also plummeted. Naturally, the latter would no longer ask for campaign funds from him.

"Forced to sell shares? This is a sign of financial difficulties..."

Tapping his fingers lightly on the table, Li Yue thought while asking Xiaozhi to transmit relevant information to him:
Chuanpu's election campaign has just begun, and he has not yet found a path within the party. Even the media has not paid much attention to him, thinking that he is just a sidekick and a "clown-type" figure.

"Then, I'll take my leave first..."

Seeing Li Yue's appearance, Jess Bryan stood up carefully and quietly walked out of the restaurant.

It was already 6 p.m., and Li made an appointment with Arian Rand to go out for dinner, and it was only at this time that Jess approached him.

"Have you ordered? What do you want to eat?"

After a moment, Li Yue came back to his senses and spoke softly to Arion, who was dressed up in front of him.

Arion smiled and said, "Sometimes I have to admire your strength. Even powerful figures in Hollywood like Jess Bryan are crawling at your feet..."

"You recognize him?"

"Yes, I vaguely remember that a few years ago, he secretly had an affair with a Hollywood female star, and then she was exposed by the media. However, until now, he is still thriving at [-]th Century Fox."

"Will the hidden rules of Hollywood still be exposed? It's all on the surface."

"Maybe the spoils are divided unevenly? By the way, is the Judd Cooper you mentioned just now the one from Imanka?"

"Yes."

The two chatted casually. Ariane, Emanka, Lydia, Paris and other women belonged to the super socialites of New York, and their relationship was both competitive and intimate. Among them, Ariane and Emanka had the best relationship.

"Her capital chain won't be broken, right? I heard that Mr. Chuanpu spent a lot of money on his campaign."

"If you are really worried, just give her a call."

"Is this okay? Judd Cooper's New York Observer once criticized you."

"He is him, Imanka is Imanka... I didn't expect you to even pay attention to such a thing?"

"Hehe, to tell you the truth, when I met you for the first time, I was considering the possibility of our union."

"Oh? Now we are indeed united."

The "union" Arian mentioned was marriage. She was giving a hint to Li Yue, but Li Yue pretended not to know and said she was talking about a deep "union."

In this regard, the super socialite was a little disappointed, but she was not one to show her emotions. She quickly picked up the phone and called her best friend Imanka.

The two chatted for a while, and Arion made a fuss on the phone. After putting down the phone, she exclaimed to Li Yue: "Oh my god, it's unbelievable. Judd Cooper didn't inform him about the sale of his shares." Immanka…”

"Oh?"

"Because the Cooper family does not agree with Mr. Shipp's candidacy, they invested the least amount of money in advance, and now they even want to withdraw their capital... For this reason, Imanka had a big fight with Judd Cooper, and the two are currently separated. …”

From Arian's mouth, he revealed a lot of gossip about the eldest princess. He also said that when the two got married, it was actually Judd Cooper who Imanka was pursuing. Because of this, that man has always looked down on Imanka. , the future famous eldest princess, her married life is actually not happy.

In words, he expressed sympathy for Immanka's experience, and even strongly hoped that the two of them would divorce.

Hearing this, Li Yue felt his thoughts stir, thought for a while, and said with a smile: "Dear, if you really want to support Imanka, I can provide some funds, which you can transfer to Imanka. Used as Mr. Chuanpu’s campaign..."

This is the best plan that Li Yue has never imagined before. Arion will participate in Chuanpu's politics and avoid his Chinese identity.

What’s even better is that Arian not only has a good relationship with Immanka, she is also a standard “one of our own” in North America, and she is the top of the pyramid among “one’s own” because she is a “blue-blood aristocrat” and has a Western skin color. , Racial discrimination penetrates into the bones. They believe that people whose ancestors come from Europe are their own people, and those who have ancient European aristocratic blood are the most typical "blue blood" and are superior to others.

This kind of Aryan, even if he gets involved in North American politics, becomes the benefactor behind the scenes.

Even if the matter is exposed, she will only receive praise from the media, who will say that she "actively participates in political affairs" and is a "blue-blooded leader". On the contrary, if it is Li Yue, the media comments will exclaim "Chinese invade North America" ​​"Wolf is coming"...
