American TV series

Sony is not yet the giant that it will become in later generations. Even though they can launch the largest acquisition of this century and spend billions of dollars continuously, the actual situation is not like this.

Take Sony Entertainment as an example. It is said that the acquisition cost 2 billion, which refers to the value of the entire record company. In fact, Sony did not acquire all the shares.

Including this acquisition of Colombia, Sony was negotiating with Coca-Cola and acquired 45% of Coca-Cola's shares.

Therefore, when we say how many billions of acquisitions are there, we are talking about the total value of the company, not the actual expenses. Besides, there are also a lot of bank loans.

Of course, it doesn't make any sense to Sean whether Sony is bigger or smaller.

Sean was not prepared to reason with Sony, he was only prepared to talk about physics!

…

There are many ways to get to Deer Island, such as helicopters, but the best and most convenient is to take a yacht from the Bronx, New York.

In order to show his sincerity, Akio Morita came ten minutes early.

Of course, this does not affect the reception.

The yacht arranged by the housekeeper took Akio Morita to the island, but Sean did not come out to greet him in person. Akio Morita was unhappy, but he didn't show anything on his face.

Kashima doesn't look big, but if it's a one-person residence, it's very big.

This makes Akio Morita, who comes from an island country and has strict restrictions on living space, and can only do the dojo in a conch shell, is very envious.

Who wants to be short and lean when he can be tall and strong...

This is why I always like to add a big character in front of the country to emphasize it.

For example, the Great Ying Empire, the Great Japanese Empire, why haven’t you heard of Dafa, Dade, Dasu, Damei, Daqing...

Ahem, it seems like some weird stuff got mixed in.

The private island is very large and beautiful, especially in New York, the world's largest city, it is even more valuable, if you don't consider that millions of people have been buried here.

Just as he was about to take a tour bus that was available on the island to go to the main house, the housekeeper received a temporary notice and Sean came over because the Murdoch family also arrived.

A trace of gloom flashed across Akio Morita's face. Sure enough, any idea that New Century Media approves of Fox and opposes it is all lies. It is obvious that the two companies have a good relationship.

But it's a good thing to meet each other. Let's talk to both families at once to resolve the problem at hand.

After waiting for a while, a tour bus drove over. Sean got out of the car, followed by Akina Nakamori.

Akio Morita recognized this national goddess at a glance. He had only heard that she was taken care of by a certain big boss, but he didn't expect that it was Sean.

Akio Morita felt quite happy. It was an honor for their book to be chosen by Sean!

After exchanging a few words and before getting to the main topic, Sean's cell phone rang, and Lorraine's face turned strange after picking it up.

Hanging up the phone, he walked up to Sean and whispered in his ear: "Prudence just called. They have already boarded the yacht and are coming over. However, his father, Mr. Murdoch, secretly brought 50 bodyguards and just showed up."

At sea, she lied about going to the bathroom and called you to be careful."

"Fuck!" Sean was shocked. Prudence, who had no time to betray his father, cursed with an ugly expression on his face, "Damn Murdoch, a sneak attack!"

"Don't look at me, hurry up and shake me!" Sean turned to look at Lorraine. The corners of Lorraine's mouth were slightly raised, and her eyes were full of schadenfreude.

Of course, it was a joke, and it was still necessary to shake people. He picked up the walkie-talkie and informed Torre. Torre was also shocked and quickly called people to rush towards the dock.

However, at this time, Sean had already seen several speedboats approaching the dock.

On the deck of the leading speedboat, Murdoch was standing at the bow, his short stature but very high-spirited.

In order to hide Sean's secrets and complete the sneak attack successfully, he did not leak any news and arranged for a bodyguard team to ambush in the nearby waters with people and yachts.

It wasn't until he got on Sean's boat and headed for Kashima that he notified his subordinates to meet up halfway.

You must go to the island with him, otherwise breaking in rashly would be an illegal intrusion into private property, and Umbrella's security guards would probably shoot him if they get excited.

"Damn it, it's broken!" Sean looked ugly, turned around and pulled Nakamori Akina and walked towards the tour bus, cursing as he walked, "Damn, it's not always a good thing if the house is too big, there are too many people at critical moments.

I can’t concentrate.”

There are only eight people on this side of the pier. Now take the pill!

Sean got on the tour bus to run away, but Murdoch's yacht was approaching the dock very quickly.

Murdock, who was observing the situation on the shore with a telescope, saw that Sean was about to run, and immediately shouted: "Quick, quick, quick, don't land at the dock, just force the landing directly."

Seeing the yacht following Murdoch rushing up to the beach without slowing down, Sean's expression changed and he immediately understood Murdoch's intention, "Fuck, run!"

"Charge the duck, kill the duck!" Murdoch waved his arms excitedly, as if commanding thousands of troops in ancient times.

The old man's face was flushed with excitement. It had been many years since he had been so excited when he completed the acquisition of 20th Century Fox. Now that they were in their status, there were few things that could stimulate their emotions.

It’s just that today, it’s so cool and exciting!

The boss spoke, and the four speedboats rushed straight onto the beach regardless of whether they would be damaged. Many people were thrown off the speedboats.

Taking advantage of the unsteady footing of the people on the speedboat, the eight people from Sean's security team on the scene rushed forward without saying a word. They were already at an absolute disadvantage in terms of numbers, so of course they had to strike first to gain time for the troops that would arrive later!

A left hook, a right hook.

A big flying foot, a nesting foot.

Apart from not using their guns, the security guards showed no mercy at all and tried their best to greet me.

Akio Morita stood aside and was completely dumbfounded at this moment.

What the hell, is that definitely Murdoch on the bow of the ship and not some pirate pretending to be a pirate?

Are these people crazy? They start fighting without saying anything when they meet?

Looking at the ferocity of this attack, Akio Morita had to change his mind now. Sean and Murdoch must be enemies!

In addition to rushing up to take advantage of the opponent's instability and knocking down about 10 people at the beginning, Sean was soon overwhelmed by Murdoch's bodyguard team who took advantage of the number of people. Sean had to ask the tour bus to run away and wait.

Reinforcements.

Murdoch learned the lessons from before, and the bodyguard also began to learn professional fighting and grappling. Sean's technical advantage was no longer there.

Fortunately, Torre and his people have been arriving one after another, but there are not enough people. One group was beaten down by another group, and another group was beaten down by those who went up.

It’s not that I don’t know that adding fuel to the fire is not advisable, but this is not a battlefield, so we can’t really let Murdoch’s bodyguards chase Sean.

Then we can only rush forward and intercept it.

Standing on the dock to avoid being affected, Murdoch was very high-spirited. He put his hands on his hips and laughed like a pig. Damn it, after so many times, he finally took advantage of it. It was so cool!

Prudence looked at this scene helplessly, unable to understand why his father was so crazy.

Not to mention Prudence didn't understand, even Murdoch's young wife and sons didn't understand, even though everyone knew that Murdoch had been beaten by Sean before.

But in fact, everyone knows that it is just a commercial method, and the relationship has long since eased.

Seeing that nothing could be done and there was no way to reverse the situation, Sean had to stand up and stop, "Stop, stop, stop, old man Murdoch, you don't have martial ethics, come to cheat, come to sneak attack on me, a young man, I advise you to be a rat

Tail juice!”

Seeing Sean admit defeat, Murdoch was very happy, and the bodyguard teams on both sides also stopped.

Sean nodded fiercely at Murdoch, turned around and walked towards Torre and the others. Damn, this is so miserable. The bruises on the nose and face were minor, and the muscles and bones were injured quite a lot.

"Lorraine, contact the hospital quickly and send someone over!"

Torre tilted his neck and said: "It's no big deal. You go and receive the old guy Murdoch. We were careless this time and didn't do a good job in reconnaissance of the surrounding waters. Otherwise, we wouldn't have given them the opportunity to have so many people."

Landing on the beach at the same time."

As he said that, Torre rubbed his chest again. He had just been attacked and kicked several times in the chest. Thanks to his strong ability to withstand the blows, at least two ribs would have been broken.

"The security level on Huitou Island needs to be improved, and a sonar circle must be established. Any larger ships that approach will be captured immediately. If you know the situation in advance, you will not be attacked by others."

"Well, the emergency plan should also be adjusted. Speedboats need to be dispatched from three sides at any time to intercept..."

"Okay, go see the doctor quickly. We'll talk about this later. When the time comes, let Douglas Meeker and others help design a security plan, according to the presidential level!" Sean interrupted Torre.

Torre nodded, and the bodyguard team stayed on the beach for the time being. Everyone acted in a measured manner. There was nothing that required first aid. Just wait for the hospital to come.

Sean then walked towards the Murdoch family with a dark face.

Sean stretched out his hand to shake Murdoch's hand, but Murdoch was not fooled. He laughed and opened his arms for a hug. Sean gritted his teeth and hit Murdoch hard on the back several times, making a loud bang.

Murdoch endured the pain, but he was still very happy in his heart, until Sean hugged Prudence and gave him a passionate French kiss. The old man's face suddenly dropped. He was a son of a bitch, kissing his own cabbage in front of him!

The vigorous meeting ceremony finally ended. Akio Morita next to him was dumbfounded and couldn't understand whether the relationship between the two was good or bad.

Is this a special way of communication among Americans?

He is indeed a ghost!

When Akio Morita was introduced to Murdoch, Murdoch behaved very normally, polite, enthusiastic, and not excessive.

The group of people walked towards the island without taking any tour bus. Sean personally took them to visit Deer Island.

Of course, this is definitely not to show off to Murdoch.

It’s not that Murdoch can’t afford an island or his own estate, but because this is New York!

Along the way, Akina Nakamori was with Sean. Murdoch was also a dedicated man, so naturally he wouldn't mind if there was a young and beautiful girl in the team. However, what made him unhappy was that his daughter didn't seem to see it either.

, still holding Sean's arm, looking very intimate.

Prudence doesn't care how many women Sean has. In her opinion, women like Sean are not good at birth. They are just playthings. It is useless to have children. They do not pose the slightest threat to herself.

It's just that as a father, Murdoch didn't look so calm.

The farce-like meeting finally passed. Murdoch originally came here just to keep in touch and talk about cooperation. But now the Japanese are here too. He knew why. Murdoch chose to take his wife and children around the island.

Go shopping and leave space for Sean and the Japanese.

No matter how awesome Morita Akio was in his book, he always seemed very respectful in front of Sean. After complimenting him hard, he carefully asked: "Is there any misunderstanding between us due to poor communication? If so, what else can we do?"

Please make it clear to Mr. Sean and we will definitely deal with it."

Sean looked at Akio Morita condescendingly, and after a long while he snorted coldly from his nose, "There is a miscommunication. I don't think there is any miscommunication. How dare I? You Japanese are going to buy the whole United States."

"You are such a scumbag!" Akio Morita knelt down and kowtowed again to apologize.

"Don't do this with me." Sean waved his hand, "Mitsubishi is already buying Rockefeller Center. Huh, what do you want to do? Are you going to show off your power over my head!"

Akio Morita sat upright suddenly and looked at Sean in shock.

"Why, don't pretend you don't know!"

"No, it's not. I just didn't expect it to be because of this!" Akio Morita quickly apologized again, but the expression on his face was that he was about to cry. What does Mitsubishi's acquisition of Rockefeller Center have to do with Sony?

If you want to intervene, you should be causing trouble for your Rockefeller family or Mitsubishi!

What are you doing with us?

"It's just that, Mr. Sean, Mitsubishi's matter has nothing to do with our Sony!"

"You are all Japanese, that's enough!" Sean's face was gloomy.

Akio Morita was even more depressed. Mitsubishi's horse manure and American ghosts should all be damned!

However, after knowing the real reason, Akio Morita felt relieved. He was just affected, so everything was easy to talk about. Despite Sean's fierce words, there was always a way to recover.

I quickly ran through Sean's information in my head. It was impossible to say that Akio Morita was able to develop Sony. His ability was beyond words, and he quickly figured out the key points.

Sean is the illegitimate son of the Rockefeller family. This is known in the industry. After Sean, the illegitimate son, achieved great achievements, he did not want to succumb to the family.

This is completely normal in Japan. In the end, the illegitimate children will annex the family, and the subordinates will conquer the superiors.

Now Rockefeller decided to sell the family symbol and soul in exchange for a large sum of money, and Sean, the illegitimate son, found out.

The illegitimate son decided to seize this opportunity to stir up public opinion, use this incident to severely damage the reputation of the older generation of diehards within the family, and improve his voice in the family.

What a great opportunity!

From this point of view, it is no problem to look at Sean's series of methods. Now that the American people's emotions have been aroused, and they immediately announced that Mitsubishi spent a lot of money to acquire Rockefeller Center, the older generation of Rockefellers have fallen and completely ignored the family.

Glory, succumbing to the US dollar offensive, has no shame, and is not worthy of continuing to lead Rockefeller's development.

At this time, it is necessary for Sean, a young rising star, to step forward, replace the decadent older generation, and continue to lead Rockefeller, the giant aircraft carrier, to move forward bravely!

Perfect way to operate!

Impeccable!

This is so in line with Japanese culture’s outlook on life and values ​​that Akio Morita has no doubts about his judgment.

It can be seen from Akina Nakamori following Sean today. This was a tip given to him by Sean.

"I understand what to do, Sean!" Akio Morita, who wanted to understand, bowed again with a serious look on his face, "Please wait for my good news!"

Sean:???

What the hell do you understand? You understand.

I haven’t said anything yet. Hey.

Don't think too much!

It's just that Sean is probably very angry now and his attitude is extremely tough. He can't even ask what the old man wants to do.

The most annoying thing about brain-filling monsters!

Fortunately, Sean had no intention of asking Sony to cooperate with him. The reason for hosting him today was to give Coca-Cola face.

Therefore, Sean could only bite the bullet and said: "Huh, I hope you really understand!"

"Please rest assured, Your Excellency!" Akio Morita stood up, "I hope we will have further cooperation in the future."

Sean waved his hand, and Akio Morita said goodbye respectfully.

After the rest of the crowd left, the Murdoch family came back.

Murdoch is in a good mood today. He has not been so happy for a long time. He is much more polite in his words. It would be better if there were not so many women in Sean's manor, especially pregnant women.

At a family banquet, there were actually three pregnant women, Nicole Kidman, Diane Lane, and Maggie Cheung. They were all definitely illegitimate, and yet they appeared so openly... To be honest, Murdoch admired Sean very much.

, he really wanted to ask Sean how he managed to get so many women together and keep them together without fighting.

Murdoch is also an old pervert. He has loved young, beautiful and well-figured women all his life. Even at the age of 80, he has not forgotten to marry a little girl...

Sean leaned forward very understandingly and whispered: "It's clear about the status. I told them before that marriage is definitely not possible. My marriage is not just a marriage. The woman who can be my head wife must be the right one. However,

, their children will be recognized by me and the Rockefeller family."

"That's no problem. For them, having their children recognized by the family is the best guarantee and the best way out. Besides, I won't treat them badly."

"From the very beginning, I set an upper limit for them. If they don't have such big expectations, they won't have such big ambitions."

"Then we can be harmonious and won't make trouble with you?" Murdoch tilted his head and asked in a low voice.

An old man and a young man secretly lowered their heads to communicate. The scene was a little strange for a while.

"Then you have too few. If you have less, they will see hope. If you have more, they will see clearly that no one has a chance."

Murdoch was silent for a long time, then slowly tilted his head to look at Sean, "Bah, you scumbag!"

Sean:!!!

After joking for a while, the two sat in the corner and talked about business. Murdoch didn't believe that Sean was making such a big fuss because Mitsubishi wanted to acquire Rockefeller Center.

What is family honor?

How much does it cost per pound?

Sean was helpless, the old guy was too cunning.

"I have evidence in my hand that Toshiba, Mitsubishi, and Hitachi Machinery and Equipment are doing their best. As you know, this kind of thing is very flexible. I am ready to stir up anti-Japanese sentiment among the American people, and then mobilize the fleet to put pressure on Japan and severely punish them.

Cut some flesh on your body."

"As you know, the American home appliance industry, the automobile industry, and the semiconductor industry all have a grudge against Benzi. Not only that, but Benzi's machinery and equipment are also impacting the markets of European countries. I am leading the charge, and there are many people who are willing to follow the flag-waving people."

Sean didn't hide it from the old guy. News Corporation has tentacles all over the world. The old guy has a wide range of information channels and can borrow strength in the future.

Otherwise, Sean wouldn't invite the old man to Deer Island.

Murdoch lowered his head and was silent for a moment, then suddenly looked up at Sean, "I want 30%?"

Sean raised his eyebrows and said, "Sure, as long as you have the capital!"

"Let me give you news. In December 1985, Kumagai, the head of Japan's Wako Company, revealed something to the chairman of Batumi, Genil Taurig. Two years ago, Toshiba exported 4 sets of five

Axis linkage machine tool." Murdoch said expressionlessly.

Sean's eyes widened. The five-axis machine tool was a high-tech technology that Batumi strictly prohibited from exporting to the Soviet Union.

Later, Sean vaguely heard about this incident, but what he never knew was that it had been reported to the Japanese in 1985.

"Would the U.S. government turn a blind eye to such a thing?" Sean asked with a frown.

"It's not surprising." Murdoch said with a smile: "Batumi receives too many similar reports every year."

Sean suddenly realized that Batumi's power was huge, and it was normal to use this method to stumble opponents in business competition.

The cost is low, success is gratifying, and there is no loss in failure. It is just a personal report.

Just like anti-dumping investigations and infringement investigations against certain companies, they delay the development of rival companies and increase artificial manufacturing costs.

"The way Batumi handles this is to ask Japan's Ministry of International Trade and Industry to investigate Toshiba. If you investigate your own people, what can you find out?" Murdoch spread his hands.

"Do you have any specific information about the person in charge?" Sean nudged Murdoch with his elbow.

Murdoch said with a smile: "Recently, the navies of NATO countries have discovered that the noise of Soviet warship propellers has dropped significantly, making it more difficult to track."

"Of course, this kind of thing has only been reported to various countries and has not attracted attention."

"As for the person in charge, that's easy to check." Murdoch just smiled.

Sean lowered his head and thought for a moment, then raised his head and said, "Head of the Machine Tool Division, Head of the Manufacturing Department!"

It's a very simple logic. It was a five-axis machine tool. Toshiba didn't sell much in a year. It was still sold to the Soviets. It's impossible that the leaders of the production department and sales department didn't know.

"I have known about this for a long time, but I am waiting for an opportunity to make this news more valuable." Murdoch picked up the wine glass and shook it gently.

"At most 200 million, I can still do it without this."

Murdoch's eyes slowly widened. He wanted 30%, but he didn't expect Sean to counter-offer 200 million.

So how much meat is Sean prepared to cut from the three companies?

How big is your appetite?

"How much money are you going to ask them for?" Murdoch tried his best to appear calm. We are also people who have seen the world!

"About 2-3 billion," Sean said casually.

It mainly depends on how many companies are willing to join in and put pressure. Whether it is machinery companies such as General Electric, Siemens, and Philips, or home appliance companies such as Whirlpool, Maytag, and Carrier, whoever makes a move will not get a share of the pie. Less money is not enough.

Everyone shares the spoils.

"Hey, you, okay!" Murdoch gasped, damn, you have the confidence to speak with armed force!

Open your mouth and get billions, Murdoch is jealous!
