I Want To Be a Rich Man on Hong Kong Island

  Chapter 452 [Three-line Attack 2]

Los Angeles

  Beverly Hills is located in Los Angeles, USA. In the future, it will have the title of "the world's most noble residential area", and it will be called the representative and symbol of wealth and fame.

  The Los Angeles Beverly Ritz Hotel (resort hotel), a subsidiary of Star Hotel Group, is located on the refreshing and pleasant Pacific coast and at the foot of Beverly Hills.

  Wu Guangyao took the four women into the presidential suite of the Beverly Ritz Hotel, and summoned the acquisition team in the hotel’s executive meeting room.

  The first wave of acquisition teams summoned is a team that targets two Washington newspapers and AMC theaters;

  Four members of Wu Guangyao’s private advisory group, Donald, President of Metro Group, Miller, Chairman of Star Media, and Robertson, President of Tiger Fund, and a group of seven came to the executive meeting room of the Ritz Hotel.

After reading the acquisition information, Wu Guangyao said: "Mr. Miller, after acquiring the two newspapers in Washington this time, you need to merge them immediately. The new newspaper is called the "Washington Star"; how to run this newspaper, no I need to explain it!"

Miller said quickly: "Mr. Wu, please rest assured, you will see a brand new "Washington Star" soon. I will mobilize the editors of Star Media UK to re-create this new newspaper and promote explosive news. Big publicity"

  Miller’s attitude made Wu Guangyao feel that it is a very good choice to support him in the upper ranks!

  Miller is only the three shareholders of Star Media, occupying only 15% of the shares;

  Also, Wu Guangyao was still his creditor. He lent him money to increase his shareholding to 15%. How could he be unfaithful to Wu Guangyao!

  Furthermore, Metro Group holds 35% of the shares and Oriental Media holds 30%. You can change the chairman at any time. How can Miller dare to be unfaithful!

  Wu Guangyao nodded and said: “The headline must be explosive and the content must be short and clear, so that such newspapers will have a market!”

  Miller sincerely said with admiration: "Without Mr. Wu’s high opinion, Star Media would not have achieved today’s results!"

  Wu Guangyao waved his hand and humbled a bit. He was just talking about Murdoch’s theory in his previous life and became a space-time porter.

  Next, let’s discuss the purchase price of the two Washington newspapers!

  11 million U.S. dollars has become the bottom line that everyone thinks!

  The topic came to the AMC theater online, everyone was shocked, this is a big acquisition case;

  Acquisition of AMC Cinemas, the main force is Metro Group, and the deputy is Tiger Fund.

   Wu Guangyao said: “After the acquisition of AMC Cinemas, we will spend huge sums of money to expand the scale through mergers and acquisitions and the continuous construction of theaters. The capital is mainly loans and financing.”

  Everyone agreed with Wu Guangyao’s point of view that this world has always been like this, big fish eat small fish, small fish eat dried shrimps;

  For the rapid expansion of AMC theaters, the only way to achieve the goal is through mergers and acquisitions.

  The second wave of acquisition team summoned by Wu Guangyao is the acquisition team led by Akio Morita of Lenovo Group;

  Akio Morita was known as the **** of Japanese business in his previous life, and he was naturally unaware of an acquisition;

  There is nothing to explain, even if it is necessary to explain, Wu Guangyao will explain it after the acquisition is completed.

  The third wave of acquisition teams is quite special. The special thing is not the relationship between Chris and Mrs. Shatton, but after the acquisition of MGM, it will become a diversified group company, where production, real estate, and hotels go hand in hand;

  The new management team needs a soul figure to suppress the heads of the three industries. Chris is naturally suitable, because behind Chris is Wu Guangyao.

  The management of the real estate is organized by GH Real Estate, and the management of the hotel is organized by the Star Hotel Group. As for the production, in principle, the original team will continue to manage, unless the original management team does not cooperate.

  After Wu Guangyao summoned the three waves of people, he no longer participated in the acquisition. Everyone only needs to report to Wu Guangyao and the progress of the acquisition regularly over the phone.

  As Wu Guangyao expected beforehand, a series of acquisitions did not encounter much setbacks;

  To say yes, that is, Stanley, the original owner of AMC Cinemas, is more difficult to deal with, after all, AMC Cinemas is his painstaking effort;

  However, when Wu Guangyao ordered the acquisition team to only hold 67% of the shares, Stanley agreed without hesitation!

  In order to develop the theater chain, mergers and acquisitions and new movie theaters must be adopted, so Stanley also likes to have a consortium join in.

  Although Metro Group did not wholly acquire AMC theaters, at least it can be considered as entering the theaters in the United States. Next, Metro Group will acquire another theater in Europe to form a European and American theater group company.

  On this day, Wu Guangyao came to the headquarters of Universal Pictures in Los Angeles as the boss.

  Because the company acquiring Universal Pictures is Sony, and Sony is a subsidiary of Lenovo Group, then Wu Guangyao’s identity cannot be hidden naturally.

  And it doesn’t need to be hidden. Film companies are not for sale in any country. Most film companies in the United States have sold them to foreigners.

  When Wu Guangyao came to Universal Pictures, he caused a lot of curiosity!

  "Chairman, this is Mr. Sidney Simberg, the head of Universal Pictures!" Akio Morita introduced Wu Guangyao.

  "Mr. Wu Guangyao, hello!" Sidney Simberg greeted warmly.

  "Hello, Mr. Sidney Simberg, thank you for your contribution to Universal Pictures these years!" Wu Guangyao said.

  Wu Guangyao’s words made Sidney Simberg feel cold, what does this new boss mean, is it to kick himself?

  However, Wu Guangyao's words brought Sidney Simberg's mood from **** to heaven.

  "Next, we still need you. As Asians, we may not know much about European and American cultural systems, so you have a lot of decision-making power. We will completely trust you and your team."

  "Thanks to Mr. Wu Guangyao for his trust, I will definitely not pay your trust; you are a legendary businessman with a great reputation in the United States and the world, so if you have any comments, we will definitely adopt it!"

   Soon the two sides gained mutual trust and started talking happily.

The reason why Wu Guangyao delegated the power to Sidney Simberg was also that he thought of the former head of the American music company, Wa Zellman, who sold Universal Pictures to the Japanese company Matsushita Electric; however, the huge cultural difference made new The owner was at a loss, and Matsushita Electric sold Universal Pictures five years later.

  So, if Wu Guangyao allows Sony’s management team to infiltrate Universal Pictures, he will definitely step into the old path of Matsushita Electric;

  Instead of this, I might as well delegate power to the Americans. After all, what I am after is profit.

  In the Universal Pictures conference room, Sidney Simberg introduced the management team and director of Universal Pictures to Wu Guangyao.

  When introducing Steven Spielberg, Wu Guangyao said: "You must be a genius director!"

  The people in the conference room were stunned. Steven Spielberg was only 23 years old at this time. He has only officially directed the thriller horror drama "Night Gallery Season One" this year. It can be said that he has just started!

  Wu Guangyao was surprised to see everyone, and then he said: "I think it should be a genius to be favored by President Sidney Simberg at such a young age!"

"Ha ha"

  Everyone finally realized that the new boss said that sentence based on this reason!

  Understand, it is completely understandable!

Of course Wu Guangyao knew Steven Spielberg, because he directed "Jaws", "Alien ET" and "Jurassic Park". It is precisely because of this that Wu Guangyao couldn't help but hear this name. Praise it.

After getting to know people, Wu Guangyao said: "I am not proficient in filmmaking, but I think I am very talented in business. I personally think filmmaking is a manifestation of business. Universal Pictures will continue to implement the system in the future. The filmmaker system and the system of sharing, it can be said that directors, screenwriters, and leading actors can participate in movie profit dividends; and I plan to implement grading dividends for Universal Pictures’ movie box office. The higher the box office, the higher the director and screenwriter’s score. Before shooting, whether it is Any status can be used as a production partner of a movie."

  Hollywood directors and screenwriters are so important, many directors are also screenwriters, such as George Lucas

  Wu Guangyao's words made everyone in the conference room finally feel the courage from the world's richest man!

  Everyone applauded to express their warm welcome to the new boss.

  In this integration into Universal Pictures, Wu Guangyao did not do anything to change history;

"Jaws" will definitely be released in advance, but at this time the genius director Steven Spielberg has just made his debut and made the first film. Naturally, it should not be too early. In 1971, Wu Guangyao would let this The movie came out.

  There is also a heavyweight person—George Lucas, who hasn’t yet been appointed as a teacher, so Wu Guangyao is not in a hurry to recruit him under his command.
