After the Oscars.

Martin gave his good brother"Michael Jackson" a call.

In the original timeline, Michael Jackson would die this year.

Although Martin feels that he has changed history, and the coveted copyright library in the hands of"Good Brother" has also been bought by himself, he should not let history repeat itself.

But he was still a little worried.

Fortunately, Michael Jackson's physical condition is very good, because there is no longer the series of bad things in the original timeline. His bipolar disorder is also recovering, and his insomnia is much better.

He talked with Martin on the phone about the inspiration of music creation, and said with emotion:"When I stayed away from capital and put down those commercial activities, the music-loving me came back again. You don't know, since I I sell the copyright library to you, and my music creation inspiration comes like a flood. I like this feeling.……"

On the phone, Michael Jackson's tone seemed to have a little more to it - the innocence that once existed, but disappeared, and now is back again!

Good!!!

…………

Time has come to the end of March, and the filming of"Inception" is nearing completion.

Another big thing happened in Hollywood. MGM once again announced that it was on the verge of bankruptcy and would be sold.

This once mythical existence in the history of American film - released one of the most outstanding films in the history of film,"Gone with the Wind", created the long-lasting screen classic"007" series, and created the immortal cartoon image"Cats and Cats""Rat", initiated the establishment of the American Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences, and launched an Oscar-winning super film and television production company, with a bleak future.

Fans of Hollywood movies probably don’t know their lion head trademark.

MGM's lion logo also became a symbol of America.

The decline of MGM should have begun during the crisis of the American film industry in the 1950s.

At that time, MGM's film output was declining year by year, and from the early 1970s to the 1980s, it only produced three or four films per year.

However, MGM was still a high-quality asset at that time. It was not until the early 1970s that Kerkorian, a big capitalist in Las Vegas, bought MGM.

Kerkorian is a good player with capital, but he is not a good person to run a movie company.

He bought MGM with no intention of making it bigger and stronger.

This person is a typical profit animal and has no love for movies.

MGM was in his hands and he changed hands many times.

He auctioned off all MGM's props, costumes, etc., and invested funds in real estate in Las Vegas, Reno and other casino cities. He also used MGM's reputation to attract customers for his casinos...

MGM Therefore, it took on high debts and turned from high-quality assets into non-performing assets.

In 2005, Kerkorian could no longer squeeze out more profits from MGM, so he found the ultimate enemy - Sony, paying $12 per share and assuming MGM's $5 billion. In exchange for the debt, MGM was sold to Xiaozhi's company.

Only three years after Sony took over, MGM ran into a credit crisis because Kerkorian had mortgaged the company too many times.

Sony realized what a huge shithole it was and simply declared bankruptcy and reorganization!

Prior to this, billionaire and famous corporate investor Carl Icahn was still trying to save the former film industry giant.

Carl Icahn, a loyal 007 fan, obviously wants to be the"savior" candidate of MGM.

He purchased 20% of MGM's debt and worked to promote a merger between MGM and Lionsgate, which he controlled.

They even found Martin, hoping that Martin's Meyers Pictures would also accept a portion of MGM's debt, and be willing to impress Martin with the condition of authorizing Meyers Pictures to remake 007.

To be honest, Martin really thought about it.

However, MGM's creditors seem unwilling to believe that this old company will one day rise again.

Eventually, MGM's creditors reached an agreement with Icahn, who gave up the merger plan and agreed to implement a pre-organized bankruptcy plan.

Meyers Pictures'"007 Project" has come to nothing.

By the way, Kerkorian, who has caused trouble for MGM many times, lost a total of US$700 million this year on Ford stock, which was the largest loss in his investment history.

Washington.

As expected, Ao Guanhai did not break his promise and submitted a proposal"to exchange the remaining resources of the United States for iron ore and aluminum ores in West Africa, and to resettle American unemployed workers by helping to build factories in Guinea, West Africa."

A new president's first proposal will generally be passed by the parliament as long as it is not excessive.

But this time is an exception.

A group of congressmen, led by Congressman Henry, representing the Texas chaebols, questioned the proposal.

"Why Guinea?"

"What exactly are the so-called remaining resources?"

"Can unemployed workers agree to travel to Guinea to work?"

Martin knew that these guys were targeting him. After all, he had snatched a lot of fat from the Texas Oil Group.

The Texas Oil Group was the main member of the Texas chaebol.

".Do you need me to take action? Martin asked on the phone.

Ao Guanhai smiled lightly and said:"No, I have a way.""

Soon, a piece of news caused an uproar among the unemployed workers. The proposal put forward by the new president in parliament to solve the job problems of unemployed workers was rejected by some members of the parliament.

These unemployed workers had long felt that they were unable to sustain their lives. Anxious and angry, as soon as the news spread, they launched a massive demonstration without even understanding the content of the proposal.

Waves of protests began to break out in industrial cities such as Washington, Chicago, and Detroit.

Martin I smiled after reading the news in the newspaper.

Ao Guanhai's power in the union should not be underestimated. This guy understands the power of workers.

Soon, Congressman Henry and his group, who could not withstand the pressure, relaxed.

At this point, The Democratic Party has reached a consensus, so it is natural for them, who hold the majority of seats in the parliament, to pass a proposal.

Guinea is about to usher in another wave of rapid development.

In fact, when the proposal is passed Later, when the unemployed workers learned that their resettlement place turned out to be Guinea, a poor country in West Africa, they were confused.

However, many people were still forced to live, packed their bags, took ships to Guinea, and embarked on a journey similar to that of the past. The ships transporting black slaves took the opposite route.

Haha, I have to say, this is really ironic!

At that time, ship after ship of black slaves arrived in the Americas from Africa and began the work of building the United States for generations. (Read Baoshuang novels, just Go to Feilu Novel Network!)

And now, boat after boat of white-skinned workers are heading to Africa from the Americas to start the work of building Africa.

Of course, not all workers are white, there are also blacks, but whites are the majority.

(Brothers, please take care of me. Please give me some comments, flowers, collections, and rewards. Thank you.)
