Movie tycoon

Chapter 701 Acquiring Sony (Part [-])
On the seventh day, Akio Morita, Japan's Sony tycoon, finally came to the hotel where Chen Xiaotang was staying. I think then you must have made a decision."

"China Chen, tell me, did you do it?" Morita Akio wished he could bite off a piece of Chen Xiaotang's meat and chew hard: "I think, now you are the only one who wants me to go bankrupt!"

Chen Xiaotang smiled lightly, fixed his eyes on the clear water, and said lightly: "My friend, doing business always requires some means. I believe you can understand, and I know you will come to me, Don't you have nothing to lose now?"

"One billion dollars, all sold to you! However, my condition is that you must stop any means of attacking me!" Facing Chen Xiaotang, Morita Akio was no longer as domineering as last time, but the pressure in his heart was only as strong as It was more prosperous that day.

"Of course, of course it will stop!" Chen Xiaotang finally raised his eyes and met them with sharp eyes: "It's just that it's not worth a billion now. Have you forgotten the conditions I proposed to you that day, [-] million or [-] million?" One hundred million or one billion. You didn't make a choice in time, so now you won't get one billion!"

This hateful Chinese devil!
Akio Morita gritted his teeth and cursed in his stomach, just about to say something.Under the gesture of Chen Xiaotang's eyes, Ye Zimei, who is Chen Xiaotang's personal assistant, smiled and took out a document and told Akio Morita: "Mr. Morita, the market value of your Sony records is only 3000 million now. In order for you to sell these two The company, Phantom has already spent [-] million dollars, so it is absolutely impossible for you to get [-] billion or [-] million!"

Akio Morita took the document and looked at it, and couldn't help moaning in pain~ He groaned: I hate you fairy!
He swore in his heart that he would never do business with the Chinese again, especially such a cunning guy. They are all devils, and they actually checked out his current details clearly and thoroughly.

This is Fatty Wang Jing's ability. During this time, Fatty Wang has not been idle. He showed his enthusiasm for picking up girls and "spotted" Sony all over the place.Of course, Chen Xiaotang has more sources of information than that.

Talking about it again, Akio Morita completely surrendered, with [-] million US dollars, Sony Records North America will belong to the Specter Group from now on.

With such a result, Chen Xiaotang stretched out his hand very satisfied, "Come on, Mr. Morita, congratulations on our happy cooperation!"

Seeing Chen Xiaotang's grinning appearance, Akio Morita was in the mood to bump him to death, but for the sake of face, he had no choice but to hold his hand.

…………

Seeing that Akio Morita seemed to be decades old, he left sadly.Looking back, Chen Xiaotang quickly had a thorough conversation with Fatty Wang Jing.

"I think the company needs to change its strategic goals!" This was the first sentence Chen Xiaotang said after seeing Fatty Wang. His expression was quite solemn: "Hollywood is indeed very powerful, and it is difficult for us to compete with them in the short term!"

"Isn't it?" Fatty Wang raised his head in surprise, and immediately stood up and stared at Chen Xiaotang: "You just stayed in Hollywood for more than a year and then changed your mind? I think the previous strategy was very good and there is no need to change it." Already!"

Chen Xiaotang smiled wryly and shook his head. He used to ignore that the global status of Hollywood movies is quite deep-rooted, and it is definitely not something that can be defeated overnight.The two sat down on the sofa, and Chen Xiaotang couldn't help feeling: "The West completely ignores the existence of Chinese-language movies. This is certainly not conducive to our attack, but it gives us sufficient preparation time!"

Is there really enough time?Chen Xiaotang didn't know, he knew one thing very well. 1991 was the year when computer special effects really took off, and Hollywood also relied on the popularity accumulated over the past few decades to really take off.

There are only one to two years left, and various reasons make it difficult for Chinese-language films to penetrate the North American market quickly.Therefore, the company's overall development strategy must be changed, and the US market remains unchanged.

"Within three years, we should not go head-to-head with Hollywood in North America. In three years, with three years, we should be able to integrate record companies, film companies, special effects companies, and resources, and then create our own Entertainment Kingdom..." He stared at Fatty Wang, his tone was sonorous, and he waved his hand to strengthen his tone.

"In the past three years, what we have to do is to dominate the Asian market and occupy the European market." Speaking of this, Chen Xiaotang suddenly remembered the strategy of encircling the city from the countryside, and felt that it was very similar to his current decision: "As long as we If we can win these markets and squeeze out the Hollywood market, it will not be too late to concentrate on the North American market!"

Fatty Wang was silent for a while. He really didn't understand why Chen Xiaotang was so afraid of Hollywood, although he knew very well that the current Moying industry is too scattered, so it is necessary to consolidate the market.However, he believes that there is absolutely no need to be so afraid of Hollywood. After all, according to Specter's courage to swallow Fox now, and the ability to win Sony records, it is completely possible to fight against it.

In Fatty Wang's eyes, Chen Xiaotang saw that he didn't understand, and couldn't help but sighed.Computer special effects, this damn thing, "Jurassic Park" can be regarded as a milestone in special effects. When it was released in Hong Kong, it completely broke the situation that there was no market for western films in Hong Kong, and won more than 6000 million at the box office, breaking the record. all historical records.More than ten years later, even "Kung Fu" failed to break the record of this film.Not to mention that there is an insurmountable peak on top of this film-"Titanic".

But now, the development of special effects in Hollywood is obvious to all. Even his hit new film "League of Assassins" is also the leader in special effects, which attracted Oscar's attention. However, Industrial Light and Magic is not so easy to control. On the other hand, Even if Chen Xiaotang has the ability to snatch Guangye Light & Magic like he did to Sony, but without a soul like Lukes, Industrial Light & Magic is just an empty shell.

So now Chen Xiaotang's strategy is that he is still working hard in Hollywood and trying to gain a firm foothold, while Fatty Wang is responsible for consolidating the Asian and European markets, waiting for the advent of the era of electronic technology. The development of Momo, instead of being only responsible for investment and not participating in internal operations as stated at the time of signing the contract.

Nonsense, with so much money invested in it, what Chen Xiaotang wants is not simply how much dividends to share every year, but to influence the future Hollywood market...

Although Fatty Wang Jing still doesn't quite understand Chen Xiaotang's intentions, Chen Xiaotang's decision-making has never had any major problems, so Fatty also has a kind of blind trust in him.

"Since you said so, then let's do this. By the way, I'm going back to Hong Kong, and I'll bring your parents to join you." The fat man was referring to the upcoming Oscar ceremony that Chen Xiaotang will attend .

Chen Xiaotang smiled, "My dad is airsick, please help take care of him, if he can't come, tell him not to come."

"Heh, I understand Uncle Gui's temper. For such a big matter, he will come at whatever he says!"

Chen Xiaotang didn't speak anymore, because just like what the fat man said, he knows his father's character better than anyone else.

Next, Chen Xiaotang directly contacted King Mike and Queen Madonna, and told them about the successful acquisition of Sony Records.

Immediately there were cheers on the other end of the phone, especially Mike, the king of heaven, who said loudly: "God, it's great! From now on, I don't have to sing for others anymore, I want to work for myself, because I am also the boss!"

Hearing that Mike was so happy, Chen Xiaotang was also very happy. In contrast, the queen Madonna was much calmer. She said: "Now I only worry about how Sony Records will operate in the future? You know, we are good at singing, but the management of the company But..."

"Don't worry," Chen Xiaotang said, "I have already considered this point. Sony Records will survive this crisis, and I will continue to use many talented people in this company, including Japanese. My principle is , as long as you have talent, you can show your ambitions, and most importantly, we want to make Sony Records an aircraft carrier in the North American record market!"

Madonna was silent for a moment, and finally said, "I hope so!"

Chen Xiaotang put down the phone, full of ambition.

Yes, from the moment the Sony record was in hand, Chen Xiaotang had burst out with great ambitions. It was time for the Hollywood record market to reshuffle!
1987 3 Month 18 Day.

Today's Sony Records is an absolute "mess".The internal structure is loose, the personnel is unstable, the stock index has plummeted, and most importantly, there are too many cassettes in the warehouse, but they cannot be sold.

But the instigator of all these culprits paid a sky-high price of [-] million U.S. dollars to acquire the last part of the equity of Sony Records.

Sony changed its doors and became a branch of the music department of Magic Shadow Entertainment.

Sony, which was once prominent in Japan, changed its owner. As the most well-known star in Hollywood, Chen Xiaotang entered Sony Records and became the new president of Sony.The king Mike and the queen Madonna became the new chairman of Sony.For a while, there was a big change in the management of Sony Records.However, Chen Xiaotang did not intend to touch them as the cornerstone of creating all the brilliant records. On the contrary, at the inauguration meeting, facing the blacks, whites, Chinese, and Japanese present... Chen Xiaotang encouraged everyone, regardless of each other, regardless of each other Race, fight together for the future of the new Sony.

Of course, wanting to talk like this will not be able to motivate everyone, so Chen Xiaotang announced very generously that everyone's salary will be increased by [-]%!
Once this sentence comes out, it is more useful than a thousand words of preaching.

Immediately, there was thunderous applause.

That's right, it doesn't matter whether he is Japanese or Chinese sitting on the throne of president, as long as he can keep his job, he will have a bright future, which is better than anything else.
