Chapter 1602 Unexpected 6

In fact, Harrison Ford knew very well that among these people, he was at an absolute disadvantage. If he didn't express his opinion, they might not let him play. First of all, Paul Allen was a good friend of Bao Zixuan and a major shareholder of Microsoft Group.

; A technological upstart with an unlimited future. George Lucas is the boss himself, and his director skills are very good. He is the kind of person who can make a living wherever he goes.

If we talk about who is the most talented person in Hollywood, then Steven Spielberg is definitely on the list. Bao Zixuan dares to make such a big bet, which must be related to Spielberg. Although he is a somewhat famous actor, but in

Hollywood is not irreplaceable. In other words, if you don't take a stand, you may be forgotten.

The opportunity is very rare right now, so I have to fight for it no matter what.

Seeing that even Harrison Ford dared to accept this loan, as the largest director in Hollywood, should he still be hesitant?

In fact, it’s not that he doesn’t dare, it’s just that he doesn’t know what Bao Zixuan’s purpose is. After all, the two parties are not relatives, so if they meet for the first time, it’s not too good for them. What if after successfully acquiring Disney, they put forward an offer they can’t refuse?

Life will become very sad.

Although he has some net worth, spending a billion dollars at once is far from enough.

Spielberg said very formally: "Since Mr. Bao is so supportive, I will not let you down. You can rest assured that he will come to Fuca Erado to shoot movies in the future. At the same time, if there is any need for our cooperation, we will definitely

Give it your all.”

This is all we can do at the moment. After all, we don’t know what Bao Zixuan wants. But everyone understands that there is no love without reason in this world.

Bao Zixuan said with a smile: "Now that you have decided, I will only be responsible for providing funds; after all, I don't know much about the film industry. But there will be no problems with what I need to do, or the technical support provided by Heiyun Group."

.”

"Let's eat first and then rest for the night. Tomorrow we will go directly to the island where the treasure was found and show you around."

After all, this is an Arab region, and roasted camels must be served. However, there are no Arabs present, and Bao Zixuan specially arranged for the chef to be behind; they can't be seen eating at all, so drinking becomes a natural thing.

Hollywood directors and actors should have a good drinking capacity. Harrison Ford, in particular, has always given people a tough guy image. At first, Mr. Ford thought so too, but after he really competed with Bao Zixuan, he realized that there was a huge difference.

Most people in the world said that Bao Zixuan had a good drinking capacity. He felt that he was bragging, but now it seems that what he said was true. He really has that strength, at least he is not an opponent at all.

Fortunately, everyone was under control and didn't dare to drink too much; after all, we had to land on the island tomorrow morning, so we couldn't delay business.

Back in the room at night, Spielberg and George Lucas began to discuss what to do next. Neither of them could understand why Bao Zixuan was so supportive.

A low-interest loan of US$5 billion without any collateral. Aren’t the other parties worried about their ability to repay, or that they won’t repay it if they have the money? No matter how much money they have, they can’t spend it like this; if something goes wrong, there will be a monster, and they can’t help but let people

worry.

George Lucas: "I know what you mean, but I don't understand why Bao Zixuan would do this and what good would it do to him."

"Five billion U.S. dollars is an astronomical figure. Perhaps it is not a big sum of money to him. But I doubt whether we are really worth such a big investment."

George Lucas was born in a wealthy Jewish family in the small town of Modesto, California. Although he had no worries about food and clothing and had more and better toys than every child in the town, the troubles still existed; when he was in elementary school At the age of 18, Lucas was one of the first students to watch the civil defense training film "Duck and Cover." It was not a cartoon about a clever turtle hiding in its shell as an atomic bomb dropped. Two elementary school students, they "no matter where they go or what they do, they always remember what to do if the atomic bomb explodes." Of course, as a scrawny, taciturn child, Lucas was occasionally bullied by the older and stronger children at school. His shoes were thrown from the lawn sprinkler.

However, apart from the haze of war and bullying at school, Lucas seems to have suffered no more. He has excellent hands-on skills and imagination, and often does creative things with his friends, such as building toy railroad tracks and holding backyard carnivals. ; When they were 8 years old, they made a roller coaster out of reels of telephone wire.

Although he has never been short of money since he was a child, he has had enough food and clothing. He has never experienced any setbacks, and his personality is not very strong. He even has a happy-go-lucky attitude. At present, he feels that running Lucasfilm is already very good. He is not short of money. So I don't want to take risks.

But what Bao Zixuan said today and a series of actions made George Lucas think that men should try their luck. People are not afraid of losing 5 billion US dollars, so they have nothing to worry about.

Running a large film company is not easy at all. I also have the idea of ​​giving up, but I feel very conflicted at the moment.

As for Spielberg, he is more like an old naughty boy. This can be seen very well from the movies. There is always some childlike interest in his film works. This kind of childlike complex setting can also be very good. Integrating into movies makes his film works more perfect. This is related to his childhood experience. Austrian psychologist and psychoanalyst Freud believed in "On Literature and Art" that the artist's childhood experience will profoundly affect his life. It is deeply imprinted in the artist's mind and affects the artistic works created by the artist.

Therefore, he did not want to put too much pressure on himself. At least deep down, he preferred artistic creation; he was not keen on how to run a company. This was also the reason why he was the slowest to react and did not decide to do this until Harrison Ford expressed his stance.

After all, as a director, his performance cannot be worse than that of actors; courage is one thing, but face must come first.

Spielberg: "Actually, I have been thinking about this issue, but I have never been able to figure it out. Why does Bao Zixuan support us? You must know that except for Paul Allen, this is the first time for the three of us to meet."

"Five billion US dollars is an astronomical figure. Could it be that, as he said, Black Cloud Group is not qualified to acquire the eight major film companies in the United States? I always feel that things are not that simple. After all, no one will joke with money."

"If you don't understand, just don't think about it. Since he dares to take out 5 billion US dollars, what do we have to worry about? Even if we are sold, it probably won't be worth that much money; who may suffer in the end? .”

"Now that you have decided to acquire Disney, you must be prepared. You must first convince Michael Eisner. If you get his support, half the problem will be solved."

"But this man is very ambitious, and he is also a master who doesn't let go of the eagle when he sees the rabbit."

Hollywood may seem big, but there are only a few truly famous figures and industry giants. As the CEO of Disney, Michael Eisner is definitely on the list. And before he became the CEO of Disney, he had already been making waves in Hollywood.

;At least Spielberg and George Lucas have to give people face.

Although the CEO is also a worker, many workers are better than the boss. This is especially true for companies with relatively dispersed equity. Even the largest shareholder has a very limited share. And other members of the board of directors, in order to check and balance the big shareholders

Shareholders will support the CEO more often.

In addition, Michael Eisner himself is very powerful. Although he has only been CEO for three years, he already has absolute say in Disney. If he cannot get the support of this kid, it will be troublesome for outsiders to acquire him.

George Lucas smiled and said: "Actually, I have just thought about this. Our strength is not managing the company. Let him continue to be CEO, and said that he will fully cooperate with all the work in the future; I believe it will not happen.

Put obstacles in the way of acquisitions.”

"I heard that he has a very tense relationship with the Disney family members; this could definitely be put to good use."

"After returning to the United States, we split up. Michael Eisner is left to me. You and Harrison should worry more about other shareholders. As for the acquisitions in the stock market, let Paul Allen be in charge. Our strength is

Familiarity with all of Hollywood.”

"But when it comes to doing business, it's really not as good as being a pure businessman. I believe this, Michael Eisner should also understand!"
