Chicago 1990

Chapter 1130: ?lunch

Amy...

There is not much forest left, but now...

Forget it, let the flow go, Song Ya yawned and touched Shakie's waist, "You don’t seem to have as much horsepower as before. Let me work out with me today, look at this little fat. ."

"Go to hell! Lame!" She threw the pillow over.

Song Ya laughed and woke up with her.

"what is this?"

Shakira went to feed Xiao Arianne. When she arrived at the rehabilitation room later, Song Ya was already doing exercises. She picked up a document on the small table and asked.

"Oh, it's our secret love document during the World Cup theme song and each other's new special announcement. Let your agent Estefan review it, and then you can sign it." Song Ya replied.

"Oh."

When Shakira saw the above stipulation that the two would recognize each other's boyfriend and girlfriend during the announcement period, and not share other scandals with each other, as well as various detailed rights and obligations and confidentiality regulations, she agreed with a complex expression.

"Starting from next year, I will go to New York today. No hurry. Take your time."

Song Ya added.

"Today? Why are you going to New York?" she asked.

"Meet a few people and discuss business..."

"Oh."

"Don't be upset, just entertaining." Song Ya comforted, but the schedule was in a hurry, he didn't care too much, and he went to catch the plane again after he finished his rehabilitation.

Tomorrow Sloan made an appointment to meet with Ovitz. After returning to Chicago, I learned that Ovitz had called Buffett again. This is a big deal. How could Buffett also be the fourth richest person in the world selected by Fujibee in 1997? Last year it dropped two places, but it was only because Fujibee changed the calculation method and included the Sultan of Brunei and the Walton family that controls Wal-Mart.

Buffett’s net worth soared from 15 billion to 23 billion in a year. Bill Gates before him was even more ruthless. He jumped from 185 to 36.4 billion, and his net worth followed Microsoft’s share price. Nearly doubled.

Ovitz has long boasted that he and Buffett have a very good relationship. At the auction held by Mrs. Astor, he said that he would show himself to see Buffett. Now he has a chance.

After Song Ya arrived in New York, he went to Bedford Heights to see Little Rega. He stayed for one night by the way. Buffett liked a steak shop in New York called Smith and Volensky. It was not a top restaurant, but when Sloan came to pick him up, Song Ya still tidied herself up, her hair combed like an adult.

"Eating steak with a group of old men? It will be boring."

Mariah Carey complained, but she also dressed up early and put on her favorite Hermes signature Kelly bag.

"Go together?" Song Ya had to ask.

"Forget it, just pass the time."

"By the way, did you know that Donnie Breston had just declared bankruptcy a few days ago?" She asked excitedly after the extension of Lincoln started.

"Yes, Halle Berry mentioned it to me a long time ago, before she went bankrupt."

Hallie probed her own words and asked if she could help save Tang Ni's financial crisis, but Song Ya didn't want to help out for no reason, even if it was just a simple effort for herself.

Donnie Breston went bankrupt, Babyface made her popular, the relationship between the two is unclear, and just as she relied on the Un-BreakMyHeart wings to re-negotiate the contract with LAFACE Records or switch to another player to earn a huge signing gold At the time, the bankruptcy came at the right time.

After experiencing personal bankruptcy, Tang Ni had to bow her head to Babyface and renew her contract obediently. The quasi-DIVA trend is a major industry issue. It is not just that Tang Ni is not good at financial management. Anyway, Song Ya's thoughts are very complicated, so she naturally won't reach out rashly. To offend Babyface.

My relationship with Babyface has always been good. Although the opponent was very ‘calm’ after he was shot, it is still far from being memorized.

"Oh, poor Donnie..." Mariah Carey put her fingers on her mouth hypocritically, but she snorted immediately.

"Uh...Mimi, I will officially announce a relationship with Shakira next year, mainly for the new album and the World Cup theme hype."

Song Ya saw that she was in a good mood and took the opportunity to confess, "She gave me a baby last month, daughter."

The smile on his ex-wife's face disappeared instantly, "Then you didn't say it last night!? I knew I would rush you to sleep in the street! Scum!" She yelled.

"It's just a publicity strategy, you should understand." Song Ya said.

"I know what a shit!" The signed Kelly bag then called out, centering Song Ya's forehead.

Then she looked out of the car window in anger and didn't speak. Song Ya touched her forehead and glanced at Sloan, who was seated opposite. Sloan's face remained as usual, and he wrote and stroked on the paper while using the extended Lincoln table.

"Hello, Mr. Buffett, Mr. Ovitz."

The three arrived at the steakhouse a long time in advance, but they didn't expect that Buffett and Ovitz were already there, and they seemed to talk for a long time.

"Haha." Buffett saw Song Ya's crutches, and after shaking hands, he pointed to the crutches and laughed at himself funny: "Is it easy to use? Maybe I will use this stuff soon."

"Well, your body looks great, at least better than me." Song Ya smiled bitterly.

"What happened to your forehead?"

"Oh, I accidentally hit the car door just now."

"Haha, sit down." Buffett may be the most gracious of the top rich, just like an old white man next door who is happy all day long, giving old-fashioned kisses with Mariah Carey and Sloan.

Ovitz personally helped the two ladies to open the chairs, Song Ya couldn't do this with crutches.

"I'm sitting here." Mariah Carey ran to sit next to Buffett, "I admire you very much." She said while holding the old man's arm.

The dining table is very secluded, against the wall, but other guests can see this side. Maybe most of the diners are the elites of Manhattan.

"Haha..." Buffett had to continue to be silly.

Song Ya winked at her ex-wife, but she ignored her, and instead moved her chair closer to Buffett.

At this time, the restaurant waiter came over with a small cake with a candle standing upright, "We prepared this for you, APLUS." Ovitz laughed, "Is it your 23rd birthday, right?"

"Wow, thank you, I am very touched."

Ovitz was really careful. Song Ya himself had forgotten. A person who didn’t know whether it was the restaurant manager or the two old men’s attendants came to take a picture. The atmosphere of the few people was pretty good and they made him make a wish and blow off the candles. It's a good thing. Sloan, who is in charge of Littman Media's IPO, and the stock **** have a meal at a table. The spread of photos is definitely good news.

"Don't sing a birthday song or something?" Song Ya complained to his ex-wife.

As soon as I looked up, I saw that my ex-wife was pouting and kissing Buffett’s cheeks. She looked at the camera with scissor hands and posed a pose. She tried to get close to the rich old man and became the second posture of the recent hot Anna Nicole. Buffett was all caught She looked a little embarrassed.

However, Buffett’s love history is also very hot. In 1971, he married his ex-boyfriend and lived with his ex-boyfriend. He also has a regular lover. He heard that the lover was sent to take care of him by his wife. The three of them often had superstar banquets together. Now, he and his wife are still not divorced.

"Humph!"

At the end of this episode, Mariah Carey throws a demonstrative look, and probably won't talk to her New York real estate tycoon in front of her anymore. Buffett is much richer.

Song Ya stared at her too.

All applauded the steak, and finally started talking about business, "APLUS, how is the status of Metropolis Records?" Ovitz asked.

"Not so good. The singers are all complaining that Disney's record announcement and distribution capabilities are not as good as the previous Sony Columbia."

Song Ya replied, this is a fact. FoxyBrown and Jazzy have collaborated on a song I'llBe before, and they are also playing the charts recently. Disney’s ability to play the charts is one world worse than Sony Columbia. The two voices of dissatisfaction are passed through Linda. Into my ears.

"Ha, you have to ask Disney for more resources."

Metropolis Records was dominated by Ovitz when he was at Disney, but he has gone out now and resents Disney Emperor Eisner very much. "His stock price is not high right now, maybe you can absorb some, or you can give Roy Disney My husband can help a little bit, do you know? At the speed at which Eisner can make money in his pocket, his personal holdings must surpass Roy, and the Disney family will not be the largest individual shareholder in a few years."

"I don't want to offend that emperor."

Song Ya won't be a disgusting knife in his hand.

At present, Eisner is almost invincible at Disney. The close relationship between himself and him can not be hit. It is mainly Roy Disney and Linton's care. Even Linton of the "Holy Family Zhenglong" may play a bigger role. , Even if the Hollywood film industry's huge loss this year is a foregone conclusion.

Yes, while talking, Linton rushed two more movies, directed by Ridley Scott and starring first-line actress Demi Moore, the leading female hero Devil Girl Soldiers. The production cost was 50 million, and the box office of Beimi was 48 million. .

Washington Square, the production cost is 15 million, and the box office will not exceed 2 million.

In other words, the guy Linton didn't make a repayable movie in 1997.

"You don't have to be afraid of Eisner, APLUS, our power at Disney is still strong, even if I leave." Ovitz continued to fight.

"Oh! I remember Mr. Buffett's Berkshire Hathaway also owns a lot of Disney stock?"

Song Ya really didn't want to talk to this guy about rebellion, and asked Buffett who was receiving Sloan's advice.

At least I know that Ovitz, Buffett, Jobs, former ABC president Geraldine Leyburn, Oprah should belong to the original anti-Eisner alliance, but they were resolved by Eisner.

No way, Disney’s equity is too scattered, and the power of senior managers and the board of directors is too great.

Buffett also shook his hand to indicate that he didn't want to talk about this topic, "APLUS, Jim Clark was scolding you recently, don't you want to fight back?" He asked back.

Jim Clark was furious when he learned that he had let 3DFX turn to Microsoft completely, and finally began to attack him in the media, saying that he was a traitor, and he made a fortune from Netscape, but now he licks the soles of his enemies' feet, he will regret it later.

"As he said, he did help me a lot."

Song Ya shrugged and opened the steak with a knife and fork, "But I can be considered worthy of him. I stayed with him for so long. Only selling the stock to the institution did not cause the stock price to fall. It often rose after the sale... …"

In the Microsoft Netscape battle, Buffett will definitely stand on Microsoft's side, and a few people will eat and chat casually.

Mariah Carey was a little bit at a loss, so she concentrated on eating.

Song Ya secretly observed that Ovitz is still obsessed with Disney's failure, while Buffett pays more attention to the topics of Netscape and Microsoft. In addition to asking Buffett for advice, Sloan mainly talked to Ovitz about the acquisition of TV stations by Littman Media.

People like Ovitz will not invest almost wholly in a newly opened news station as stupid as he was at the beginning. After he brought out a strong media team from ABC, he attracted many investors, and Buffett also For a small vote, there are many other Hollywood relationships with Ovitz, and even family fringe members in the European luxury industry. The new TV station uses the abbreviation ABC abandoned, but the full name is Atlantis Cable News.

In the first half of the year, the leading white evening news anchor Will McAvoy is a traditional media person who is more idealistic than Gordon. He insists on what news justice, media elites have the responsibility to bring the truth to the audience, and they have the responsibility to bear the role of education. Do not blindly chase social hot spots.

His words are too sharp and mean, and all kinds of persistence have led to unsatisfactory ratings...Of course, it is still much higher than A+CN.

Some time ago, when the news about the death of the former British princess was hot, he did not give too much space, and still insisted on reporting boring international and domestic political and economic news.

Owner Ovitz finally couldn't stand it. He heard that he had a big fight with him and threatened to fire the entire evening newsroom. In the end, he was not willing to fire, because the annual salary and other contracts given to him were too high to be dismissed.

In short, Litman Media needs to expand its media footprint. There are no suitable targets on the market, only, it just happens that this logo is very popular. If it weren't for ABC, there would be no A+CN, Will McCavo It doesn't matter if Yi can't control it, just arrange Gordon, who is the same iron, to raise a maverick news station.

"Mr. Buffett, what do you think of the recent Asian financial crisis?"

He also has his own plans. At present, the Asian financial crisis is intensifying, and Southeast Asia has all fallen. Shou Ross has been hunting for Chinese areas such as Xiangjiang, Wanwan, and Singapore. He frequently succeeded, and he couldn't help but feel a little anxious.

"Their linked exchange rate system has problems, the yen is depreciated, the book is withdrawn, and foreign debt, especially short-term foreign debt, is too high." Buffett generally replied: "The currency valuation is too high."

"They...for example, Thailand shouldn't abolish financial market controls in the early 1990s, right?" Song Ya asked.

"Haha." Buffett smiled without answering.

"While we are plundering them, the media and the IMF also asked their governments not to intervene in the market and rescue their banking industry. But we obviously did not do that in the 1980s," Song Ya said.

In the 1980s, Perelman was able to brutally expand into a financial tycoon because he received billions of special aid guarantee funds from the Elephant Party to the Texas banking industry. UU reading www.uukanshu.com

"This involves economic theory, which is too complicated, and there is no perfect solution now."

The old man hummed haha ​​and made it clear that he didn't want to confuse him, "APLUS, what do you think of Microsoft's purchase of Apple's non-voting shares for 150 million?" Ovitz was winking and interrupted.

Song Ya didn’t want to be too eager, and she didn’t have the power to blend in with a huge amount of hedging hot money hunting, so she had to give up, "I haven’t paid attention to this matter. I have a little Apple stock in my hand, but I took Microsoft’s stock price. I still want to die, about fifty cents? I bought it for eight yuan, and now the cost is also one thirty cents!"

Speaking of Apple, I am angry. There are many future products of Apple in the film and MV of Ming Tomorrow.

"Maybe Microsoft doesn't want Apple to go bankrupt? If the operating system on the market dies, its antitrust lawsuit will be more difficult to fight." Sloan said.

"What do you think? APLUS." Buffett looked at himself with Kaojie's eyes.

"It's very contradictory. If Microsoft is trying to save its former rival and ridiculing Jobs many times, it is out of fear that the monopoly lawsuit will face greater pressure, so it will put a new way of life with a low market share. But at the same time they encouraged Apple to switch to Internet Explorer, and it is also bundled with the operating system for free, doesn't it mean giving the enemy Netscape more knives?"

Song Ya thought for a long time and replied: "Then there is only one explanation. There is a consensus within Microsoft that they will not allow themselves to lose the antitrust lawsuit and be split, but it should be acceptable to be convicted of unfair competition after squeezing Netscape. A huge fine?"

"Hahaha!" Buffett showed his admiring eyes, "This sounds like a reasonable explanation."
