Heads Up Hollywood

Who is Tang En's number one general?

New Universal CEO Barry Diller?

No, he is an adjutant.

Branca Reyes, head of the personal finance team and operator of Dunn Capital?

No, he is an aide.

The general who really opened up the frontier is Scott Swift!

Back then, Tang En made a lot of trouble in the stock market and made enough capital to make a fortune, thanks to this trader who was born as a Wall Street stockbroker!

Later, Tang En couldn't bear the pressure of public opinion, and decided to withdraw from the stock market operation. He took out 500 million US dollars and founded the "Scott Swift Venture Capital Foundation", mainly targeting the Internet and technology markets in Asia.

In this foundation, Tang En Capital holds 80% of the shares, and Scott Swift holds 20% of the shares, which can be regarded as operating dry stocks.

In just three years, the current valuation of this venture capital fund has exceeded US$7 billion!

Holdings include 33.5% of Penguin, 15% of Ali, 22.6% of Samsung Electronics, 25% of Baidu, 28% of Naver...and nearly 50 large and small companies.

Twain's foresight points are indispensable here, but Scott Swift's capital operation is equally important!

His start-up capital is only 500 million US dollars. If Tang En is allowed to operate, it is impossible to make such a large plate.

Scott Swift was born on Wall Street, and he is proficient in financial means. The operation of the entire foundation is completed in the process of non-stop investment in shares, loans, shares, and loans.

The multiple debt structures are dazzling.

At its peak, the foundation had more than $1.5 billion in debt!

Such a powerful financial operation can only be played by people on Wall Street.

Seeing that Baidu was about to go public, Tang En didn't like this company very much. In order to reduce the debt pressure, Scott Swift, after coordinating with Baidu's management, plans to sell all 25% of the shares he holds to DFJ, a venture capital fund in Silicon Valley, at a price of 750 million U.S. dollars. Pay off part of your debt.

For the development of his career in the Far East, Scott Swift has been separated from his wife for a long time and has already divorced.

Tang En especially dotes on little Taylor, and there are some factors for this.

"Your father has a girlfriend, so don't make trouble then."

On the Boeing 747 soaring into the sky, Tang En was peeling apples, and warned Little Taylor who was sitting beside him.

Little Taylor said absent-mindedly: "I'm not a child anymore. He told me long ago that he found a British woman working in Singapore who is 20 years younger than him. I heard that she is pregnant."

"Huh? Pregnant?"

Tang En was a little surprised, this Scott Swift was quick enough!

20 years younger than him... Isn't that the other party is only 19 years old this year?

Only 5 years older than little Taylor?

Enough!

"What a fuss!" Little Taylor looked old-fashioned, "He is so rich, so this result is normal. However, I still hope that my sister can give me a younger sister. I like younger sisters."

"What a mess!"

Don't know whether to laugh or cry, he handed her the peeled apple and stroked her soft hair.

Little Taylor took a bite, rolled his big eyes, and said pitifully: "Tang En, my father is going to have a new family, and my mother is busy working for you every day, and no one loves me." It's..."

"Don't you still have me. If it wasn't for me, do you think you would be able to escape this time?" Tang En naturally knew what she was thinking. He stretched out his head very unceremoniously, and "clicked" on the apple and took a bite.

Little Taylor looked at the apple that had been bitten twice, his eyes were moist with joy, and with a smile on his lips, he raised his chin and said, "Tang En, I heard that the laws in Korea are very loose. Girls... like me age is up to standard."

Tang En frowned, "Nonsense again!"

"I'm not talking nonsense!" Little Taylor snorted, and said willfully, "Don't look down on me, do you think I'm really small? If you don't believe me, touch it, even if I can't compare to Scarlett, I'm definitely not younger than Natalie!"

Tang En was angry and funny, "I said you are too young."

"I don't care, this time I'm going to Korea, I'll sleep with you, I want to be your woman!" Little Taylor bit the apple as if venting, and his anger was beyond doubt.

Tang En said with a headache, "How did you promise before you came here? No nonsense is allowed. I am going to Korea this time, and I have important work to do, and your father is also here. When the time comes, he will definitely pick you up to live in."

"Then when will you get back with me?" Little Taylor was crying, his mouth was flattened, and his eyes were full of tears.

Tang En couldn't understand: "Why are you so anxious? Are you so anxious to become a woman? It's too young, and it's not good for your health. It will take another two or three years."

"Okay! Who said it's not good? My friends are all very good!" Little Taylor retorted unconvinced, thinking that Tang En was trying to trick her.

Tang En said in displeasure: "Can you be the same as those wild girls? Your father is a billionaire with a net worth of US$1 billion, and I am the richest man in the world! Girls, you should be reserved and self-respecting. How do you educate yourself?"

Little Taylor lowered his head and said aggrievedly: "I just want to try."

Tang En sighed, and said softly: "Okay, I didn't teach you a lesson, I just wanted to explain a truth to you, look at the two sisters Natalie and Scarlett, aren't they both seventeen or eighteen years old before they got married? Me? So is Gale."

Little Taylor pouted, sullen.

Reluctantly, Tang En leaned over and kissed her on the lips for a few seconds.

He didn't stick out his tongue, which was very perfunctory.

However, such an intimate action still made little Taylor feel a lot of surprise, and immediately cheered up, his eyes seemed to shine brightly, "Wow! It's so sweet, I want more! I want more!"

"Sweet or not, it's apples." Tang En stroked her hair with indescribable pampering.

Little Taylor didn't believe it, so he leaned over again, licked Tang En's lips twice, pursed his lips, and smiled, "It really smells like apples."

"soy Mujer!"

Tang En couldn't laugh or cry.

Little Taylor was very dishonest, blinked his big eyes, then sat up on his knees, lay on Tang En's shoulder, and whispered in his ear: "I like this plane, when I'm the first time, Just on the plane, okay?"

Tang En twitched the corner of his mouth, "Okay."

...

Tang En's trip to South Korea was mainly for two things.

One is to make friends with Korean industry insiders.

South Korea's film market is relatively international, and the box office share can reach 55%, which is higher than the average level in the United States.

This is a piece of fat!

Moreover, the South Korean government is currently fully promoting the special effects industry, and even plans to establish a "film special effects city" in Daejeon City, which attaches great importance to the film industry.

This year, the South Korean film "Flying the Flag of Taegeuk" and the computer CG animation "Sky Warrior" were both produced by local special effects companies in South Korea, and the effects are very good.

For now, South Korea is already the kingdom of special effects in Asian movies.

Including "Heroes", "The Promise", "House of Flying Daggers", "Assembly" and most other films in mainland China, the post-production special effects are all produced in South Korea.

This is very important!

The special effects technology of the United States ranks first in the world, but the cost is too high!

New Universal has sold its special effects company "Digital Realm" to Disney.

In the future, South Korea will be a major development point for Hollywood movies.

High-end special effects are produced in the United States; for relatively low-end simple special effects, there is no need to spend a lot of money to hire American labor, and Koreans can also do it.

South Korea's cheap special effects will be an important branch of film technology all over the world.

It is necessary for Tang En to come here early to leave behind the incense.

If he can become the finishing touch of "Korean Movies", he will leave a huge reputation, connections and prestige here. New Universal's movies can also be unstoppable in South Korea.

More importantly, the current Korean movie policy stipulates that movie theaters must play Korean movies for at least 147 days a year!

This kind of rigid requirement of domestic protection is very unfriendly to Hollywood.

Japan does not have it!

South Korea's entertainment industry is completely imitating Japan. If this restriction can ban...Hollywood movies, it will further sweep the Korean market!

Thanks to this great achievement, Twain's status in Hollywood will further rise, and he will be respected by everyone!

In addition to movies, it is Apple's negotiating team.

Tim Cook led a team to Asia to find mobile phone spare parts manufacturers. The initial negotiations were mainly for the display screen.

In 2004, Japan and Taiwan had the best screen technology in the world.

However, the price is high.

In contrast, Samsung Electronics, which is catching up bravely, is very cheap.

Samsung's screen technology... still belongs to 5 years ago.

At that time, Apple wanted to produce computers with LCD monitors, but the screens in Japan and Taiwan were too expensive. As soon as Jobs slapped his thigh, he simply went it alone, and found another electronics company in Asia, and focused on supporting it!

This is Samsung Electronics.

It can be said that the screen technology of Samsung Electronics comes entirely from the strong support of Apple back then.

Before 1999, the brand value of Samsung Electronics was only US$3 billion, and it could only assemble and produce some TV sets and washing machines. Now the brand value has reached 10 billion US dollars, in which Apple has played a big role.

As a company supported by Apple, Samsung is of course the first choice for iPhone screens!

However, this is only a preliminary plan.

Everything depends on the outcome of the negotiations.

If Samsung Electronics is not obedient, Apple will definitely look elsewhere.

In this, Tang En played a big role.

First of all, Tang En is the largest shareholder of Apple and the main promoter of the iPhone project!

Secondly, Dunn is the big boss of the Scott Swift Foundation, and this venture capital fund holds 22.6% of Samsung Electronics shares!

As the middleman, there is too much room for manipulation.

Samsung, as the corporate overlord of South Korea, has a strong influence in all walks of life, and the same is true for movies.

Basically, all large entertainment clubs in South Korea have Samsung's shareholding.

Samsung's ability in South Korea is far greater than Zhou Fangyuxiong's influence in Japan!

Zhou Fang Yuxiong can help Twain manage the Japanese entertainment industry...

Samsung goes out, one tops two.
