American TV series
Chapter 221: Murdoch who grabbed food (Find a corner for the leader Yang 15/15)
(Wow, finally a leader has been added!!)
Harvey secretly glanced sideways at Sean's face.
"It's about the release of "Basic Instinct"." Harvey whispered: "I have watched the finished film and shown it to major theaters. Everyone thought it was good. I have to praise Sharon Stone's acting skills. Then
She is really a stunner. After it is released, the whole world will be crazy about Miss Sharon Stone."
"I heard that you also wrote the script of this film, Mr. Sean, and you did the editing yourself, that's awesome!!" Harvey waved his big hands, "I admire you so much, Mr. Sean, you
What a genius!”
"This film can definitely win the Oscar!" Harvey's face trembled with excitement, "Oscar for Best Screenplay, Oscar for Best Editing."
Harvey may be a little fatter and a little uglier, but he is still a famous producer in Hollywood and a big figure in the film and television circles around the world.
After he praised him so much, Sean still felt a little bit in his heart.
comfortable.
Xiaobu looked at Sean in surprise, as if it was the first day he met him, "You can also write scripts? Can you also edit?"
"Yes, Mr. Bu Shi, and this is not the first time that Mr. Sean has written a script." Harvey was so colorful that he didn't even need Sean to answer, and he consciously did a good job of complimenting him.
"Mr. Sean's first movie was the previous "Bank Robbery", which had a box office of 130 million US dollars in North America and a global box office of 225 million."
"Both the scripts of "Bank Robbery" and "Basic Instinct" were written by Mr. Sean within a few days. Not only that, but the casting was also chosen by Mr. Sean."
"As far as I know, the other film "Die Hard" that is in post-production is also a script written by Mr. Sean." Harvey kept talking, foaming at the corners of his mouth.
"Oh my God!" Xiao Bu also looked very excited, "You still understand movies and art!?"
"Okay, okay, let's see how excited you are about this." Sean leaned on the sofa, put his hands on the back of the chair, crossed his legs, and raised the corners of his mouth slightly, "I think this is normal!"
There were words that were difficult to understand one after another, such as "Is there any problem if a genius knows more things?", "It's just a movie", etc., which caused Xiao Bu to grit his teeth, and Sean's face was filled with happiness.
"Okay, let's not continue talking about the fact that I am a genius." Sean raised his hand and pressed it, "What exactly are you going to say?"
"There may be some difficulties with the release of Basic Instinct," Harvey whispered.
"Huh?" Sean's face darkened and he stared at Harvey, "What do you mean, please tell me clearly!"
"The box office market of 'Bank Robbery' was unexpected, but with this dark horse, your film company has already entered the sights of the Eighth Congress." Harvey explained.
Sean understands this. If a foreign gang comes to New Jersey, he will notice it immediately.
After all, it is still their own territory, so it is impossible not to keep an eye on it. The Eighth National Congress also has the same principles for Hollywood.
"so what?"
"The quality of the film "Basic Instinct" is unquestionable. In fact, as long as it is not a drama, an insider will know it at a glance. Although the specific box office cannot be estimated, you can still tell whether the film is good or not," Harvey said, pausing here.
Looking at Sean's face, he said, "So, after the theaters watched the film, the Eighth National University of Political Science and Law knew about it."
Before it is released, the distributor will have to arrange for a major theater chain to come to watch the finished film. The theater chain will have to determine whether your film is worth the number of screenings it will give you and how many screenings it is worth.
Finally, you have to compare it with other movies released in the same period to see what time period and filming rate you are worth.
These can only be decided after watching the movie.
It also depends on the sharing model, whether it is suitable for the area where the theater chain is located, etc.
North America is a large country, and different regions have different cultures and religions. Many movies have no market in specific regions.
It doesn't just happen when the upper lip touches the lower lip.
"Did the Eighth Ambassador stumble?" Sean reacted immediately.
If "Basic Instinct" is good, it will crowd out the box office of other movies in the same period. It is reasonable for many small studios to avoid movies of the same category when blockbusters are released.
And "Basic Instinct" was not released by the Big Eight. It would be normal for the Big Eight to get no dividends and cause stumbling blocks.
There is nothing warm about business competition.
Harvey has always been engaged in the distribution of low-budget films, and most of these films go to the video tape market, with only a small part going to theaters.
The funny thing is, even so, he is the largest distributor in Hollywood after the Big Eight.
Well, slightly larger productions must be distributed by the Eight Major...
Yes must!
There are too many film sources from the top eight, and they can completely squeeze out the entire release market, or squeeze out good time slots.
The theater chain will not offend the Eighth National Congress for the sake of an unknown junior.
What's more, nearly half of the North American theater chains were forced to separate from the Eighth Congress because of the 'Paramount' bill. Although everyone's bones were broken, their muscles were still connected.
It's like Rockefeller being forced to break up.
"Yes." Harvey nodded.
Sean tilted his head and looked at Harvey, and suddenly said: "As long as we guarantee the screen for the movie, it's not impossible to distribute it to them."
When Harvey heard this, his heart seemed to stop. This was what he was afraid of, so he came to Sean in a hurry.
He completely forgot how much he resisted when Sean asked him to release "Basic Instinct".
"When the Big Eight get the distribution rights, they will definitely compress the schedule, the number of shows, and the time to make way for their own movies!" Harvey said with an extremely sure tone: "Moreover, they have always liked to delay the settlement cycle to let the money go.
They sit in their own accounts and often deliberately delay the settlement for one or two years."
"In addition, there are too many departments in the eight major departments, and internal struggles are very serious. Once the box office market explodes, they will definitely do things like false box office reports!"
"In the end, 'Basic Instinct' was given to them for distribution, but what about 'Die Hard' and other movies that will be shot in the future?"
"If this is the case, you will always be controlled by the Eighth Congress. They can plot against you however they want!"
Harvey didn't speak quickly, but he analyzed the disadvantages of cooperation with the Big Eight from all angles.
Do everything we can!
I have to say, this guy is really talkative.
To stand out in Hollywood, you do have a lot of skills.
Sean has also considered these things he said. If others don't know, how can he still know whether the movie he shoots will make money?
There is no way he would be willing to let Bada keep plucking wool from him.
Even David Rockefeller can't do it, Bada, Bada is a tyrant!
Moreover, Sean also knew that Harvey was not lying. If he didn't say anything else, he would say "Big Ship". The truck driver's 2000, 2000, and 2000 had completely wiped out 20th Century Fox. He had no choice but to look for it everywhere.
To ask grandpa and grandma for change, the truck driver's thigh must be connected.
Relying on the reputation of Truck Driver and the credibility of 20th Century Fox, many people invested money, the largest one being Paramount, one of the eight major companies.
The results of it……
The ship was a hit all over the world, but when it came time to settle profits, Twentieth Century Fox used all sorts of tricks to falsely report box office numbers, delay payments, and so on.
Paramount was still one of the eight major companies, and 20th Century Fox was not used to it. At that time, it was almost out of its mind.
The final external result is that Paramount takes the domestic box office and 20th Century Fox takes the foreign box office.
The copyright aspect is even worse.
Therefore, will any of the eight major companies indulge themselves and cooperate with them innocently?
Sean turned to look at Xiao Bu.
Xiaobu smiled and waved his hands.
The meaning is obvious. The Bushi family is a political family. They will only help solve problems or use their influence to bring the two parties to the negotiation table, but they will never take the initiative to offend anyone.
Well, anyone of influence.
Sean rubbed his chin and thought deeply, those guys would most likely bully an honest man like him.
It doesn’t matter what your reputation is or how popular you are, but before you actually meet someone, you say, ‘Is it true? I don’t believe it!’.
After all, they are all internationally famous large companies, so they can't be intimidated by them as soon as they meet, right?
That’s bullshit!
It is impossible for such a company to grow and develop!
Businessmen are all pursuers of profits and wealth. They rely on creating resources and obtaining the resources of others, and even forcing others to give up resources to make themselves rich - Rockefeller.
Therefore, there is no politeness or humility, and you have to really show off your arms when you meet.
The Eighth National Congress will definitely force itself to give more distribution shares. Sean believes that what Harvey said will definitely happen.
Leave yourself alone?
Unless the Eighth Congress wants to see the birth of the Ninth Congress.
so……
"Tell me about the current situation of the Eighth National University." Sean had no expression on his face.
It's useless to ask that guy Norris about this matter. Why do you think he's doing something crooked? Norris is an expert, so it's business?
Not doing business properly.
Sean finally figured it out.
Harvey was unsure, but he didn't dare to fool Sean. The pendulum might fall on him at any time.
"The eight major Hollywood companies that everyone talks about are 'Warner Bros.', 'MGM', 'Paramount', 'Columbia', 'Universal', 'United Artists', '20th Century Fox', and 'Disney'. However, four years ago, United Artists was replaced by
GM acquired it. In fact, Hollywood is now the Seventh. However, the past few years have been difficult for Paramount, and the Seventh may become the Sixth at any time."
"Huh?" Sean frowned. If he remembered correctly, there seemed to be only six people alive later, 'Warner Brothers', 'Columbia', 'Universal', 'Paramount', '20th Century Fox', 'Disney', Pie
Ramon is alive and well, but the seemingly glorious MGM is gone.
"What's going on at Paramount?" Sean asked directly.
Originally, Sean was concerned about MGM, which later went bankrupt, to see if he could get it. However, Harvey suddenly brought such news, which made Sean immediately interested.
Eighth University changed owners several times, and Sean was interested in getting involved.
"Uh... This guy, Barry Diller, talked about it." Harvey was stunned for a moment, and then began to tell the story. As an upper-class figure in Hollywood, this guy is very well-informed.
"In the 1960s, Paramount was in decline. In 1966, Paramount was acquired by Gulf Western Industries. After that, Robert Evans, a newcomer, came to power and launched "Love Story", "Chinatown" and "The Godfather" etc.
After a few movies, Paramount saved the situation."
"Then we have to talk about Barry Diller. At the age of 25, he entered ABC to do television. 12 years ago, Barry Diller entered Paramount. 10 years ago, this guy succeeded Robert Evans and became the captain of Paramount.
, Barry Diller and his two assistants, Michael Eisner and Jeffrey Katzenberg, these three brought Paramount back to the top of Hollywood."
"Wait a minute." Sean raised his hand to interrupt Harvey, "You said Michael Eisner, Jeffrey Katzenberg, they are all from this Barry, and they are at Paramount?"
"Uh... sir, what's the problem?" Harvey didn't know why, and Xiao Bu also looked at Sean curiously.
"Haha, no problem, keep talking!" Sean waved his hands mysteriously.
Damn it, this is a big problem, okay?
Of the people Harvey mentioned, two of them, Sean, were so impressive.
Michael Eisner, the Disney Emperor, is synonymous with "professional" among professional managers, and is a model of killing his boss.
This guy drove the Disney family out of Walt Disney. However, Disney did become a super group that attracted global attention under the leadership of this guy. When he took over, Disney’s market value was only 2 billion US dollars, but this guy pushed it to 40 billion US dollars.
peak.
Of course, during this period, Michael Eisner also successfully climbed onto the rich list and became a super rich man.
The existence of Michael Eisner fully proves what a career is!
What the hell is a career!
What the hell is a career?
Another one, Jeffrey Katzenberg, is also a familiar figure and one of the founders of DreamWorks.
Together with Spielberg, he founded DreamWorks. At its peak, it was possible to become a new Hollywood giant.
Of course, it failed in the end, and the reasons were complicated. Some of the collaborators could only share adversity but not wealth, and it also had to do with their inability to control their own distribution channels.
On the other hand, Sean had never heard of Barry Diller, but it goes without saying that someone who can be the emperor of Disney and the founder of DreamWorks has such abilities.
After being interrupted, Harvey continued talking about Paramount.
"During the years when Barry was president, Paramount reached its peak among the seven largest companies in Hollywood. However, the bad things happened to Barry."
"This guy has a background in television. After becoming famous, he has always wanted to realize his television dream and create a brand new television network and television empire."
"Last year, Murdoch acquired half of the shares of 20th Century Fox. Later, Murdoch persuaded Barry, and Barry used Murdoch's money to build his fourth television network."
Sean and Xiao Boo looked at each other. Murdoch is such a ruthless old guy. He killed two birds with one stone.
It not only interrupted Paramount's upward momentum, but also got itself a general!
"As soon as Barry left, Paramount immediately fell into turmoil. As far as I know, Michael Eisner took over Paramount's mess, but this guy is hooking up with Disney. By the way, Disney has been in trouble recently.
It’s very sad that Disney suffered a hostile takeover last year, and Disney’s film division, Buena Vista Pictures, ranked last among the seven major companies, suffering severe losses year after year.”
"So, Disney took a fancy to Michael Eisner's achievements at Paramount and intended to let Michael Eisner take over as the company's top executive to revive the film industry. After all, Disney's core industry is movies."
"They are both from the top eight. Paramount is better than Disney. Will Michael Eisner go to Disney?" Xiao Bu interrupted and asked.
Sean knew that not only would this guy go, but he would also get out of control, so he probably had to pay for the conditions.
"After all, Paramount's parent company is Gulf Western, which is a petrochemical company. With such a father at his head, it is difficult for Michael to grasp the power and display his ambitions. For people who have achieved this, ideals and ambitions are more important.
." Sean said his guess.
Harvey flattered Sean in agreement, and then continued: "Michael Eisner will most likely leave. He was re-elected as president and resigned in a short period of time. Paramount will be unable to recover in a few years.
What happens in the end depends on whether the West in the Gulf can stabilize the situation."
"Where's Katzenberg?" Sean suddenly asked.
"Huh?" Harvey was stunned. He really hadn't paid attention to this.
"I don't know, just ask around if you don't know!" Sean said angrily.
"You!?" Harvey asked uncertainly: "Sir, you want to poach Katzenberg."
"Do you think Norris is very capable?" Sean asked.
Harvey grinned and made no comment.
"By the way, tell me what Murdoch is doing recently." Sean suddenly changed the subject.
This guy is a media tycoon. Murdoch's News Corporation is not very famous now. Its biggest achievement is the acquisition of half of the shares of Twentieth Century Fox. But in the future, everyone knows about it.
As for the media industry, Sean will definitely get involved, especially in this part of the United States. The great man once said that the position of public opinion...ahem.
Therefore, Sean must pay attention to it.
"Murdoch is building a TV network recently." Harvey said directly: "He poached Barry and is already starting to build his own TV network. He is currently negotiating and is preparing to acquire New York, Los Angeles, Chicago, Houston, and Dallas.
With six local TV stations in Washington, this matter has caused quite a stir, and many people know about it."
"Well!" Sean suddenly stood up from the sofa and stared at Harvey, "What did you say!"
The murderous aura accumulated by killing hundreds of people with his own hands spread out uncontrollably. Harvey was so frightened that he trembled all over and almost urinated.
Xiao Bu was also startled, and his face turned a little pale. He had been in contact with Sean for so long, and although he knew that Sean was ruthless, this was the first time he felt the murderous intent in Sean.
So rich!
This is because Sean didn't target them.
"Say it quickly!" Seeing Harvey in a daze, Sean's eyebrows stood up on the spot.
"You, you scared him." Xiaobu took a deep breath and patted Sean gently. After all, it was because of his different status that he was much stronger than Harvey.
"Huh..." Sean breathed out, his expression softened, and he sat on the sofa again.
Harvey's expression calmed down. He thought he was going to die just now, but now he started breathing heavily.
"Look at how cowardly you are, you loser, stop fucking breathing." Sean raised his head and kicked Harvey out of anger.
Harvey forced a smile, picked up the red wine in front of him and drank it in one gulp. Only then did he realize that his clothes were soaked with cold sweat.
"You, you may not have noticed, but everyone in the industry knows that Murdoch has always wanted to expand his media industry in the United States. After all, this is the world's largest country and the center of the world. If he wants to become a global media giant, he must
Gain a firm foothold in the American media industry." Harvey said after organizing his words.
"Humph, that's a pretty idea!" Sean's face didn't look very good, he was just here to grab food.
"For more than ten years, Murdoch has been acquiring the newspaper media industry, including the New York Post, National Star, New York Magazine, Village Voice, and New West. Three years ago, he bought
"The Herald American" and renamed it "The Boston Herald", and two years ago he acquired the Chicago "Sun-Times". Over the years, he has not stopped acquiring newspapers and magazines."
"The year before last, he acquired a European satellite television company, and last year he acquired half of the shares of 20th Century Fox."
"Since 1985, he has been negotiating with Metropolis Media, the fourth largest television group in the United States. He wants to acquire the local TV stations just mentioned. The person in charge of this business is Barry."
"What a beautiful idea!" Sean snorted, causing Xiao Bu to look at him sideways.
"I'll give you two tasks." Sean grabbed the red wine in front of him and drank it all, and said with a serious face: "First, use your contacts to keep an eye on Murdoch for me. I want to know the specific progress of their acquisition.
If you need anything, please call me and I will have someone coordinate with you."
"Secondly, regarding the distribution issues of "Basic Instinct" and the subsequent "Die Hard", some concessions can be made appropriately. I mean for those theater chains, I would rather give them profits than cooperate with the Seven. Paramount
Disney is in trouble and won’t have the energy to take care of my business. I will deal with Fox myself. The rest are Universal, Warner, MGM, and Columbia.”
Sean picked up a glass of wine and downed it in one gulp, with a stern look on his face, "If you really want to make yourself uncomfortable, I'll show him if I'm afraid of them!"
As he spoke, Sean looked Harvey up and down, and suddenly said: "Fat man, have you ever thought about selling your film company to me?"
"Ah!!" Harvey was frightened and ejected from the seat. Looking at Sean's half-smiling face, he waved his hands with determination, "No, no, no, this is absolutely impossible, even if you kill me.
possible!"
"Ha, what the hell..." Sean sneered when he saw him like this, raised his hand and pressed it down, "Sit down, sit down, you look like I'm trying to rob you of how much money you have."
"This is not about money." Harvey did not dare to relax at all and quickly defended, "This is my career, my everything, my ideals and sustenance."
"Okay, okay, what a fucking ideal." Sean snorted disdainfully, "In the end, it's all about money. If you don't have money, where do you get such bullshit ideals?"
"Although I don't want to say this, I think it's positive at all, but poor people don't deserve their fucking ideals!"
“Only if you have money can you have a fucking ideal!”
"I can tell you clearly, you Miramax, it doesn't matter if you stay the way you are now. Don't think about developing and growing. If you continue to develop, sooner or later you will encounter the Big Eight. Oh, now we are the bottom line of the Big Seven.
At that time, it will either be acquired or go bankrupt."
"You have no money, no power, no family background, and no power to protect yourself. Why do you think you can one day become one of the New Eight?"
"It's not like it was a few decades ago. Struggle? Will you succeed if you work hard?"
"I'll go fuck you!"
"The solidification of social classes in the United States will only become more and more serious. Unless it is an emerging industry, there will be no new people coming forward."
"Just you, Harvey Weinstein, remember what I say, you are very capable, but you are a coquettish person. It would be better if you don't go further. The day you develop to the point where you threaten several giants in Hollywood, that is
The day you go to jail."
"Don't think that just because you are Jewish, the Jews who control Hollywood will accept you."
“Jews don’t bully Jews?”
"Fuck you!"
"Okay, that's it, do what I told you. The distribution share will still be 15%, and I'll give it to you. I'll let you transfer the money, and I'll take care of the matter." Sean coldly stretched out his hand towards Harvey's chest.
I clicked on it, but stopped the moment I got close. It was too greasy...
"Remember, if things don't go well, I don't care who you are, I will send you to the sea to feed the fish."
"The earth will turn around no matter who you are. It doesn't matter if Hollywood is missing you. You are no exception."
Harvey left the box with an ugly expression and stood in the golden corridor outside. He turned to look at the door of the box. His mind was full of Sean's previous words. The day you develop to threaten several giants in Hollywood, that's it.
The day you went to jail.
He didn't know if it would really develop like this, and he just felt cold in his heart.
Harvey left, and only Sean and Xiao Boo were left in the room. Xiao Boo then looked at Sean with a smile, "What, you still want to get involved in the media?"
"No, what you said is very strange. Why can't I get involved in the media?" Sean tilted his head and looked at Xiao Bu, "Who in the east said that the position of public opinion..."
As soon as Sean mentioned that person, Xiaobu's face immediately became serious. After a while, he nodded vigorously, "Then you should get involved. I really hope you have your own channel for it."
Sean's reaction to Xiao Boo was a bit strange. He was just joking. I really didn't expect Xiao Boo's attitude... Well, I can't tell how I feel.
"What do you want to do?" Xiao Bu asked solemnly.
"Grab it!" Sean said matter-of-factly: "This is our traditional industry in America, America's voice channel, how can we let a foreigner occupy it!"
"I know some people often shout about 'News Without Borders'. I just want to say that people like this should be fucking shot!"
"If you have bad intentions, what's mine is mine!"
"Congress should also take some measures. America's media channels are controlled by a foreigner. There may be no harm in it, but I don't think it does any good!"
"Do you think this is of any benefit to the United States?" Sean turned to look at Xiao Bu.
Xiao Bu frowned and thought, "I can't think of any benefits."
"That's it." Sean spread his hands, "I will have a hand in this matter."
"Do you still have money?"
"No money!" Sean said confidently.
"What can you say if you don't have money?"
"What's wrong if we don't have money? If we don't have money, we can't do anything. If we don't have money, our voice channel will be controlled by a foreigner with bad intentions?"
Xiaobu blinked in confusion, "Why do you have bad intentions?"
"If you don't have it now, it doesn't mean you won't have it in the future," Sean said matter-of-factly.
The corner of Xiaobu's mouth twitched crazily, "It's a pity that you don't go into politics. You are the one who is confusing right and wrong."
Sean raised his eyebrows, "What, are you sure he will never do it in the future?"
"I can't!" Xiao Bu shook his head like a rattle.
"Then it's over. National affairs are nothing but trivial matters."
"Yes, yes, you are absolutely right." Xiao Bu gave a thumbs up. He could not refute.
"But I'm different. It's completely impossible for me to betray the United States!"
"Why don't you probably have it, maybe, maybe in the future?" Xiao Bu looked at Sean sideways.
"My surname is Rockefeller, is this enough of a reason?" Sean looked at Xiao Bu with a half-smile.
Well, this reason is very strong, and Xiaobu agrees.
"It's like you can't betray the United States."
"Of course, my last name is Bu Shi!"
"The United States is our America, not Murdoch's America." Sean pointed at Xiaobu and then at himself.
Xiaobu nodded heavily in agreement, pondered for a moment and then said, "I really know a lot about Murdoch."
"Hey!" Sean suddenly became interested.
"Murdoch is not an American, he is an Australian. When Reagan was running for president, Murdoch purchased the New York Post and other newspapers and contributed a lot to them. In return, President Reagan approved Murdoch's
Doc became a U.S. citizen.”
"According to the law, non-U.S. citizens are not allowed to own American television stations, so he must have U.S. citizenship."
"The law also prohibits owning a TV station and a newspaper in the same market, and Murdoch is lobbying the government to exempt him from this requirement."
"Ha, I can go to hell!" Sean was so angry, "Damn, where is the legal construction? What the hell?"
Xiaobu looked at Sean with a smile and smiled secretly in his heart, "Do you want to go to law again at this time?"
When have you ever obeyed the law?
Did you selectively forget about it when you were playing with the law?
"This is absolutely not possible!" Sean didn't see Xiao Bu's look, and continued to talk indignantly, "The construction of the legal system in the United States is the result of the joint efforts of all Americans over the past two hundred years, and it must not be allowed to be allowed to be allowed by this damn Australia
People defile!"
"Absolutely don't believe it!"
"We must uphold the fairness of the law!"
"I can't reach out to those in the West, but New York, Chicago, and Washington, these three local TV stations must not be acquired by this guy, absolutely not!"
Reagan, Reagan, Sean kept thinking about the name Era in his mind. If he remembers correctly, this guy seemed to have been assassinated. Why wasn't he shot to death at that time?
MLGBD!
"You have to tell Mr. Bu Shi about this." Sean put his arm around Xiao Bu's shoulders and said, "I will also join in the acquisition competition immediately. As for the money issue, it's not a loan at all. It's 100 million."
If it’s not enough, just two hundred million!”
Sean waved his arms, as if one or two billion didn't even exist in his heart.
Xiao Bu smiled and shook his head, but it was obviously better for the TV station to fall into the hands of Sean than to fall into the hands of Murdoch.
At least it would be better for the Bu Shi family.
As for what Reagan thinks... Although we are all Republicans, there is a difference between closeness and distance.
"Okay, that's it, I'm leaving." After that, Sean stood up and walked out. He had to take action immediately.
Xiao Bu looked at Sean and was completely stunned. When he opened the door and was about to walk out, he quickly stood up and shouted: "Wait!"
"Is that so?" Sean turned around in confusion.
"You're still asking me what's wrong!" Xiaobu looked at Sean funny, "Is this why you invited me over today?"
Sean blinked...
Damn it, I forgot!
Damn it, it's all Murdoch's fault!
Close the door, return, and do it. Sean spread his hands in embarrassment, "You know, I have too many things to do recently, steel factory, supermarket, comprehensive garbage treatment center, X security, Cartanach, my God, I'm busy.
I don’t even have time to rest every day, it’s a bit chaotic.”
"Ha, are you too busy threatening to kill others?" Xiao Bu looked at Sean with a smile. He had also heard about Fidelity.
Others don't believe it, but Xiaobu believes it.
"It's all a joke. How could it happen? It's just to scare him. You know me. I'm a good person!"
Ha, Xiaobu laughed out loud.
"It's not a big deal, at least compared to the TV station, it's not a big deal." Sean sat down, slowly poured himself a glass of wine, took a sip, and then put it down.
It can be regarded as relieving the overly excited mood just now.
There is no way, the media market is only that big, at least it was that big before the advent of the Internet era, and it cannot accommodate so many media giants.
"It's about Cartagena that I'm looking for you. You know, many chemical plants there are already building factories, but now there's a problem that I didn't think of beforehand."
"What's the problem?" Xiao Bu's expression became serious. Compared with the TV station, Cartagena had closer interests with him.
The oil company of which he is chairman is already preparing to launch efforts in Cartagena.
"Insufficient power."
"So many chemical companies have been connected at once, which far exceeds the current maximum power supply in Cartagena."
"Industrial electricity consumption is not only large, but also needs to be stable. It cannot be done without electricity." Xiaobu frowned.
"There is a way, and the solution is of course urgent. Dispatch electricity from other cities in the state to fully supply Cartagena, but..." Sean sighed and continued: "You know, because I was in Cartagena to fight against evil forces.
, the relationship with those people in the state is very tense, they will not dispatch the electricity to us honestly."
"Even if the current electricity consumption is solved, we cannot call other cities' electricity specifically to protect Cartagena for a long time. And as the factory starts production, the electricity consumption will only increase." Xiaobu looked grim.
"It's easy to say, just build a power plant." Sean waved his hand and said: "You know, I have a waste incineration power plant, and then I can build a coal-fired thermal power plant in Cartagena.
It's just that the fuel is different, it's not a technical problem."
"This is the second thing I want to tell you. A large power plant consumes about 2-3 million tons of coal every year. With an annual output of 1.2 million tons, it is already a large coal mine. One power plant alone can eat two
The annual output of large-scale coal mines is constant. With such conditions, it would be a shame not to build a coal mine."
"With a revenue of several hundred million US dollars a year, I can't just let others earn this money casually, right?" Sean spread his hands.
"Then you definitely can't just let others make money!" Xiao Bu nodded with certainty, his eyes bright.
"In addition, chemical raw materials are not just petroleum. Coal chemical industry is also developing rapidly. As one of the raw materials, there is no need to worry about sales."
"That's definitely not a worry!" Xiao Bu kept nodding.
"How about it, are you interested in setting up a coal company together?" Sean smiled and looked at Bu Shi.
After pulling in two generations of presidents, Sean will dare to walk sideways on the street from now on!
"We are friends!" Xiao Bu immediately picked up the wine glass.
Sean also laughed, picked up his wine glass and clinked it with Xiao Bu, "We are dear friends and relatives!"
"Ha ha ha ha"
The matter was settled like that. As for the short-term solution to the power supply problem that Sean mentioned, Sean mentioned it again, "I need your help to solve the short-term problem."
"Me?" Xiao Bu was stunned and pointed at himself, with a puzzled look on his face, "How can I help? I can't control the decisions of Bolivar State!"
"Ahem." Sean suddenly changed his face and said seriously: "As we all know, Colombia is the largest cannabis producer in the world. More than 9,000 tons of cannabis are transported into the United States every year. In addition,
Every year, more than 50 tons of cocaine from Colombia flows into the United States through smuggling channels."
"According to the CIA's investigation, the vast majority of them flowed out from the channel of Bolivar State in Colombia. The governor of Bolivar State has a close relationship with the drug trafficking channel and provides protection for drug trafficking channels in order to obtain improper benefits.
.”
"The CIA has launched an investigation into the governor of Bolivar State and has produced significant evidence!"
Bush:(????)?
Really?
I do not know how!
"You don't want the CIA to go to Colombia and arrest the governor, do you?" Xiao Bu looked at Sean in shock, "Although I really hope that the CIA has this right, that is impossible.
After all, we are a sovereign country, and we will be criticized if we do this."
"Of course not. I just need people from the CIA to stand up and say a word. I don't need them to do anything specific."
"Then what?" Xiao Bu raised his brows, feeling clearly that something unusual was about to happen.
"You know, I am a serious businessman who abides by the law. What illegal things can I do?" Sean chuckled, "However, the devil will not let go of any fallen soul. Maybe, I mean maybe,
Maybe there will be some people who are afraid that Mr. Governor will say some random things that should not be said."
"I don't know." Shawn shrugged.
Ha, I really believed your ghost!
Xiao Bu immediately understood Sean's interruption. If the governor of Bolivar State dies due to drug-related matters, then the entire state government team will be implicated.
Once this happens, an early election will be inevitable, and Cartagena Mayor Butler Mitchell, who has a close relationship with Sean, will inevitably be pushed forward.
At that time, it will not be Sean’s final decision.
However, this method is really simple and effective.
Violence is not the only way to solve problems, nor is it necessarily the best way, but it must be the fastest, simplest, and most effective.
If you can't solve the problem, then solve the people who created the problem.
Solving problems is like treating a disease. Sean's treatment principle is to cut off the head when the headache hurts, and cut off the legs when the foot hurts...
sawed off,
Naturally it won't hurt anymore.
Nothing wrong!
