Top of the big era

In the evening, Zhou Buqi had to deal with some work matters as usual.

Mainly due to time difference.

In China, the evening is spent dealing with matters in Europe and the United States; if in the UK and the United States, the evening is spent understanding some domestic developments.

The way of working is mainly to read some compiled WeChat documents and emails sent by important people.

For less important questions, you can reply online.

If it is something important and urgent, Zhoubuqi will directly conduct online video communication or telephone conference with the other party.

"There is one last document, a business acquisition by PayPal, a German start-up payment company that combines software and hardware. The price exceeds 30 million euros. Take a look..."

Gu Zanli pushed a document to Zhou Buqi through WeChat.

Zhou Buqi clicked on the document.

I have a headache.

This is too detailed!

There are 7 pages in total.

It has a very comprehensive acquisition analysis and various reports. These things are not what Boss Zhou is good at at all. However, the acquisition has been approved by PayPal's vice president, chief financial officer, chief operating officer and CEO.

Zhou Buqi was not interested in reading any more, "Why are there so many?"

Gu Zanli said: "It was like this when it was given to me. The documents that PayPal gave me were all of this type. They should be as detailed as possible. I still don't know much about how we work."

Zhou Buqi asked: "How is the document? Have you read it?"

Guzanli blinked, "I saw it."

"What do you think?"

"Hmm...there are some parts that I don't quite understand."

"Probably?"

Zhou Buqi has neither time nor interest in reading these complicated documents.

He directly manages six listed companies: Ziweixing, Ziweixing International, Changyou, PayPal, Ziweixing Global, and Ziweixing Media, not counting the indirect management of Jieyu Media, Yuanwei Group, Taizun Real Estate, Naiyi Fei and other listed companies, as well as a large number of unlisted companies.

He won't read any documents like this!

Just talking about the current document, if he read it from beginning to end and analyzed it carefully...it would be a waste of time if he couldn't finish it within an hour.

"Hmm..." Gu Zanli hesitated for a while, feeling very unconfident, "I think it's very good. The payment method of software and hardware collaboration may be more suitable in Europe. Aren't Europe and the United States all used to swiping credit cards? If software and hardware Once combined, you can just swipe the phone, and you don’t need to open the software to scan the QR code like in China.”

Zhou Buqi said decisively: "Then I'll listen to you!"

Guzanli was slightly startled, "Why do you listen to me?"

Zhou Buqi said irresponsibly: "Isn't your matter over there finished?"

Guzanli nodded lightly, "Well, this is the last document for PayPal."

"Then you study it." Zhou Buqi waved his hand, "The power is given to you. If you think it's okay, you can sign on my behalf."

"Ah?" Guzanli was surprised, "How can this be done?"

Zhou Buqi said: "That's it!"

Gu Zanli said in a panic: "No, the harem cannot interfere with politics. Sister Yaxian told us sternly and we are not allowed to make decisions in your name."

Also assisting the big boss in handling work in the office are two secretaries who are proficient in English, Zhao Li Muge and Zhang Zetian.

They all looked up one after another.

They were all shaking their heads.

I also feel that this is inappropriate and does not comply with the rules of the Zhou family and the office.

Zhou Buqi felt it now.

No wonder the ancient emperors were in such trouble. If power is delegated to the court, there will be a struggle between imperial power and prime minister power, leading to the prime minister forcing the palace to take the throne; if power is delegated to the harem, relatives will interfere with politics; if power is delegated to eunuchs, castration will occur.

But the workload is too much to deal with all the big and small matters by myself.

Zhou Buqi calmed down and felt that it was inappropriate to authorize Gu Zanli, but it was impossible for him to read such a large document. "Then approve it. I think what you said makes sense! The management agreed. , it’s not good for me to be killed.”

After settling the matter with Paypal, the next step is ZiMSI Global.

Zhao Li Muge came to take charge.

The pace here in Hollywood is slow, and the main method of communication is email.

Zhao Li Muge had already screened the emails Zhou Buqi needed to read and pushed them all to him.

The first email was a blast.

It turned out to be a set of large-scale nude photos of beautiful women, with a total of seven or eight photos. Many of them were naked selfies in the bathroom, facing the mirror.

This beauty can be said to be a household name.

It turned out to be Hollywood star Scarlett Johansson!

Zhou Buqi glanced at Zhao Li Muge and nodded secretly, thinking that this girl was quite sensible. She knew that the big boss worked hard and should watch something light and entertaining to relax.

Well, don’t tell me, the photo was taken very well, it’s very fragrant, sexy and exciting.

However, Zhou Buqi was calm.

There are so many female celebrities, female models, female Internet celebrities, female college students, etc. who send him private photos. He receives a batch almost every day. I've gotten used to it after seeing it too much. Moreover, Scarlett Johansson is the "Black Widow" in Marvel movies. She has met Zhou Buqi many times, and once she even stripped naked and stood in front of him to seduce him.

She is also one of the actresses who became famous immediately, and she has always had a great standard in this regard.

Zhou Buqi had even seen the real person, so the photo didn't matter to him.

The person who sent this email was Jason Kilar, CEO of Ziweixing Global.

"This Kilar, what does he think of me as a boss? He really thinks I would be interested in such photos? Don't do these things in the future... huh?"

Zhou Buqi thought that the other party was using the nude photos of celebrities to please him.

Unexpectedly, there was another supplementary sentence next -

"Emergency: Hackers have a group of nude photos of female stars and are blackmailing us. Scarlett will appear in Spider-Man 2 in two months, and there will be more important Captain America 3 next summer. We need to solve it quickly."

Jason Kilar even used bold processing.

Zhou Buqi suddenly realized.

It turned out that this group of photos was sent by hackers as a threat.

Extortion is common in Hollywood.

Many celebrity scandals or bad negative information are often threatened after being known by others. In most cases, it is to spend money to avoid disaster. Film companies are even more victims. Every time before a blockbuster is released, there will be all kinds of extortion.

Some extortion is pure fake news.

That doesn't matter.

False news can also get money, because fake news ferments and will have a great impact on the box office of a movie. When the facts are clarified, the box office market of the movie will be finished. When encountering such things, film companies can only admit defeat.

So Hollywood often has both black and white, and it takes "brothers on the road" to settle many things.

Zhou Buqi asked: "Mu Ge, what do you think about this nude photo? It shouldn't be serious, right?"

"Serious! It's very serious!"

Zhao Li Mu Ge put this email first, which shows that she also attaches great importance to this matter.

Zhou Buqi said disapprovingly: "Sex photos are porn photos, what else can we do? Scarlett Johansson's movies are very explicit, and the whole world has seen her naked body. These photos just show some more private parts."

"This is just one group, not just her!"

"Huh?"

"There are many people! Look at the following emails, there are similar things. The company has received more than 20 similar blackmail emails, involving more than a dozen female stars. If it is not handled properly, it will affect the release of several of our blockbusters in the future!"

"A lot?"

Zhou Buqi opened his eyes wide.

Zhao Limuge said: "There are a lot, it's serious! Look at the emails again, not only Ziweixing Global, almost every film company has encountered such threats. This is a flood of Hollywood actresses' pornographic photos. Not only female stars, but also female models, female hosts and so on."

Zhou Buqi asked: "Where did they get all this? Did they hack into someone's server?"

Zhao Limuge said: "It seems that they cracked the cloud album."
