My 1999
Chapter 964: A lost dog
After hanging up the phone, Paul Singer shrugged his tie, his old face revealed his superiority, his eyes were sinister, and with his messy hair, he looked like a hungry hyena.
"That old guy has entered, what about you?"
He looked at the opposite side with a fierce look.
Epstein, who had a thin face, meticulously groomed blond hair, and gold-rimmed glasses, put down the coffee cup in his hand and smiled.
"We are more generous than Mr. Soros.
$5 million, and provide information support."
"If you succeed, Epstein Company can invest in Elliott and help you re-enter the upper class."
The woman sitting next to Epstein smiled.
Paul Singer's eyes slowly swept over the two people.
Although Epstein Company is a pile of stinky shit, there are many bigwigs associated with this company.
If those bigwigs are willing to help, his Elliott will definitely be able to develop again.
"How do I know if this is your intention or the intention of those behind you?" Paul Singer sneered.
He is now at the end of his rope and doesn't care about being used as a gun by others, but he has to be a valuable gun.
Epstein thought for a while.
"Do you know why the British royal family helped Caesar?"
"Why?"
Paul Singer asked hurriedly.
This is the question that all the participants in the Dragon Slaying Plan want to know.
If it weren't for the British royal family's help, they would have killed Caesar with the general trend.
It can be said that Hurricane Katrina was the root cause of the failure of the Dragon Slaying Plan, but the more critical factor was the help of the British royal family.
"Prince Andrew is a frequent visitor to 'Little St. James Island' and plays very boldly. Caesar has some evidence and handed it to the British royal family.
For the face of the royal family, they had to help." Epstein said hatefully.
Paul Singer was stunned for a moment.
"Haha..."
The exaggerated laughter shook the entire box.
As he laughed, the hostility on Paul Singer's face became stronger and stronger, and gradually his wolf-like eyes stared at the opposite side.
"Just because of you two stupid, mean, dirty male and female dogs, you have hurt me so badly, you really deserve to die!"
The woman next to him was afraid to speak because of his huge and fierce momentum.
But Epstein was very calm.
"Paul, you are a stray dog now. Without my help, do you think you can kill Caesar Jin for revenge?
I'm afraid your plan has been ruined by him before it even started."
Epstein put down his crossed legs, leaned forward, and stopped when his face was about to touch Paul Singer's sinister face, and said slowly.
"If you don't want to sleep on the street and become a dirty, rotten, disgusting homeless person, then respect me."
The two exchanged glances and confronted each other for a long time.
Paul Singer suddenly smiled and leaned back.
Although he was crazy, he was not stupid.
There were not many people who could help him after he fell into poverty.
"Five million dollars is too little, and I need a more certain commitment, otherwise I will kill him, and what will you do if you regret it in the end?"
"How much do you want?"
Epstein didn't want to make things too difficult for the other party.
After all, there were too few people willing to take action against Caesar Jin.
"10 million dollars. After the deal is done, Elliott Investment Company will get $1 billion in financing."
"No, it's too much."
The two bargained.
In the end, the price was set at $8 million in cash and $500 million in financing.
After the two parties separated, they returned to the car.
The woman complained: "We gave too much to that greedy villain."
"A lot? In my opinion, not much at all. If Caesar Jin is alive, we will pay ten or a hundred times this if we go to appease him."
Dinglingling...
The phone rang.
Looking at the caller ID, he sat up subconsciously and pressed the answer button.
A deep voice came over.
"How is it going?"
"It's done, 8 million US dollars, and after it's done, Elliot will be given an investment quota of 500 million US dollars. But..."
"But what?"
"That guy said he needs information support. And Jin Caesar has been staying in Atherton's manor, protected by a large number of bodyguards, and he can't find an opportunity."
There was a moment of silence on the phone.
"Let him wait, and let him take action when the opportunity comes."
"Okay."
——
"Brother Liang, we checked all the purchasing staff in the manor, including their families. Except for two people who were not clean and privately embezzled the purchase money, no other abnormalities were found."
Huo Gang put the investigation file on the table.
After following Xu Liang for many years, this former farm boy has also become mature.
He really has the ability of a captain of the bodyguard team.
Xu Liang's eyes turned.
"Brother Zhang, what about you?"
Zhang Hongwei hurriedly said: "The investigation of the bodyguard team has also been completed, and no abnormalities have been found so far."
Xu Liang nodded slightly.
In fact, he is not afraid of the enemy's means outside. As long as he hides here and does not go out, no matter how many firecrackers you bring, it will be useless.
He is afraid of poisoning and other insidious tricks that are hard to guard against.
So no matter where he goes, he will take a whole team of chefs with him on a private plane.
But the kitchen is not a safe. The gardeners and servants around have the opportunity to get in.
So Xu Liang prioritizes checking the people around him.
The house is clean before we can ‘treat guests’.
"Get rid of all those with unclean hands and feet."
"yes."
Lu Hui knocked on the door and walked in.
"Mr. Xu, Mr. Sun Yan and Sun are here."
"Go and do your work."
Huo Gang and Zhang Hongwei turned around and walked out.
"Let Lao Sun come in."
Not long after, Sun Yan, wearing a dark blue suit, stepped in.
"Mr. Xu."
"Old Sun, sit down."
Xu Liang poured him a cup of tea and handed it over.
"Thanks."
"Youku (YouTube) has developed well, and you are indispensable."
After nearly two years of development, Youku, with the strong support of Hongmeng, has 94 million registered users, 2.7 million different videos, and more than 800 professional video hosts.
The valuation is close to US$3 billion.
It has developed much faster and has a higher valuation than Youku in history.
But it also costs more money.
Youku now spends tens of millions of dollars every month just on broadband, plus employee salaries and insurance expenses, nearly 15 million U.S. dollars.
In contrast, advertising revenue can only cover a quarter.
Still in the stage of making ends meet.
"You are honored. Without you and the support of the head office, Youku would not have been able to develop so fast." Sun Yan said quickly.
Xu Liang nodded with a smile and then changed the subject.
“What’s going on with the lawsuit against the Hollywood giants?”
"We have invited Baker McKenzie, the best business law firm in the United States, to help us litigate the case. Both sides are currently presenting evidence and the first court session will be held in December."
"What are the chances of us winning the case?" Xu Liang asked.
Sun Yan showed hesitation on his face.
"Don't worry about it, just say it."
"I'm afraid it's very low. Youku's videos do have copyright issues. But McKenzie said we can put the piracy problem on users.
The technology is not enough to identify videos with copyright issues in a short period of time, thus causing piracy, as an excuse to avoid compensation. "
Xu Liang understood what he meant.
Youku has nearly 100 million users, and these people upload tens of thousands of videos every day.
On the basis of protecting the fruits of user labor, it is difficult for Youku to identify whether these videos are pirated in a short period of time? So it was not taken off the shelves in time.
So much so that it infringes on the copyright of Hollywood companies.
This is an objective infringement, not a subjective violation.
To avoid punishment.
Hollywood giants are definitely not willing, but Youku does have this technical problem, but it's not that serious.
The next step is to continue fighting.
The lawsuit continues.
It is possible to fight like Apple and Microsoft for more than ten years.
"Mr. Xu, although this method is good, some obviously infringing videos must be removed from the shelves, otherwise it will be given to the other party as evidence. But edited videos of film and television dramas are the largest video categories on Youku.
If lost, it will seriously affect Youku's future development and user stickiness.
So, my idea is to settle privately with the Hollywood giants and pay royalties. "
