Sun God Marvel Chapter 1307: Diversion target public opinion storm

In order to calm down the storm caused by an idiot, Wang Shoufu had to promise a lot of things against his heart. For example, he promised not to voluntarily lay off employees within a certain period of time, promised to retain the number of American employees, and he also promised to raise wages.

For a capitalist, this is definitely not something they are willing to do on their own initiative, but in order to appease the emotions of employees, he can only make compromises for the most important plan of his time.

Of course, the compromise is only for ordinary employees. Like the management who planned these, especially the idiot. Even if he ignores the disgust in his own heart, simply for the stability of the enterprise, he must not let these guys stay here.

Getting out of business is an inevitable thing, but such a thing is not worthy of Wang Shoufu ’s personal operation. Rather than wasting his time on such things, he needs to focus more on his most important plan.

Time Warner, he and the second goal in the Tony plan. But for this goal, Wang Shoufu is actually not so satisfied. The reason is simple. Although Time Warner is huge, it is also considered a giant in Hollywood. However, the entire Time Warner-owned industry is not what he needs most.

What he needs is the TV station industry. Even if it is Fox TV in Fox, it is what he really needs that can occupy the top position in the entire American TV network system. On this issue, it is obviously not enough for Time Warner to own only part of the shares of Turner Television Network and CW Television Network. He needs a bigger goal, and he has already figured it out, that is Viacom Group, a media giant holding CBS television network as an important thing under his hand.

Of course, acquiring Viacom is not as simple as acquiring 21st Century Fox. After all, in the 21st century, Fox is an industry separated by News Corporation, and its volume cannot be as huge as it used to be. A considerable part of News Corporation's industry is placed in the UK. With the destruction of the UK, the former media tycoon Murdoch's family was almost inevitably severely affected.

Forty percent of the British paper media was controlled by his hands, which was a brilliant rule in the past, and today, it is a nightmare for the entire Murdoch family. Although they can still maintain a superficial glory with the resources they have, in fact, they are already stretched in many places.

The impact of the stock market, coupled with internal divisions, makes it almost impossible for the Murdoch family to control their own industries. After all, they are only the largest shareholders themselves. Of course, if they can unite other shareholders, he can certainly be called the owner of this group. But with the weakening of their own power and the self-defense of all shareholders, they certainly cannot continue to unite.

This is why Wang Shoufu can successfully acquire the 21st Century Fox. People's hearts are all gone, so it is better to take some tangible benefits to fill such a vacancy. And being able to take advantage of such an opportunity to attach Wang Shoufu, who has huge resources and contacts on the mainland, will naturally be a good choice for the Murdoch family who urgently needs to open up new markets and restore their own decline.

However, Viacom Group does not need to do so. Although their market is inevitably affected by the turmoil in the United States, the problem is not so obvious for this media empire that has reached its tentacles all over the world. So of course, if Wang Shoufu wanted to start working on him, it would not be as smooth as it is now.

All he can borrow is the turmoil in the stock market, and although this is considered to have a certain impact, but whether it can play a key role, I finally said two things. After all, this is an external factor, and it is never these external factors that really determine the final outcome of the problem. After all, everything depends on strength.

Whether the capital of Wang Shoufu can satisfy the shareholders of Viacom Group is the real key. The problem now is that he has already borrowed 200 billion yuan, and he has spent a high price on the acquisition of the 21st Century Fox. He may not be able to come up with a satisfactory number.

You know, when Viacom acquired CBS, it cost almost $ 46 billion. In addition to CBS in his name, there are behemoths like Paramount. If you want to win it, it is almost impossible without 80 billion.

This kind of cross-border acquisition is best to be quick and quick. If you ca n’t directly break the bottom line of those shareholders with a sufficient price, then things will inevitably become longer. At this point, Tony also has requirements. What he asked of Wang Shoufu is to solve these problems as soon as possible. And as soon as possible, it is impossible to have no money in hand.

The dollar has depreciated significantly, but it has not reached the point where it is on par with the renminbi. Wang Shoufu, who has already spent almost half of his capital, is not enough. To continue, he must come up with more funds, which is certainly impossible on his own. So when he made up his mind, he immediately did such a thing, that is, he mortgaged the Fox shares he had just got to the bank.

He directly borrowed 180 billion yuan from the central bank, and with this capital, he directly made a request for a premium purchase to Viacom Group. In the face of this big move by Wang Shoufu, the entire American press, which has already been known, has become crazy.

"The Chinese are crazy, do they want to use money to conquer the world?" This is the title given by the media that is crazy and incredible about the news.

"The arrogant Chinese, they will certainly repeat the mistakes of the Japanese." This is the title of complaining about this crazy thing, even filled with resentment.

"America TV network has fallen into the hands of the Chinese. Starting today, will we see the United States in the hands of the Chinese?" This is a title that is deliberately intriguing and wants to stir up public sentiment.

Almost in an instant, the entire US media and network are full of such and such words, and these voices, without exception, almost all accuse the Chinese and accuse them of their terrible behavior. Such a thing is absolutely impossible if no one is instructed behind it.

This point can be seen even by the richest king in the land of the United States, so immediately, he ordered the power of the American media that he had just obtained to target this unhealthy trend in public opinion. In response to their own counterattack.

"Fox Yi (easy), the stock price began to pick up. A stimulant for the turbulent US stock market!"

"An inclusive country and a tolerant society will create such a diverse civilization today. Welcome, Chinese people join the American media family!"

"The King of China has promised to open up more markets and promise more employment opportunities. This may be a turning point for the current downturn in the US!"

"Where is the future of the United States? Cooperation may be our only opportunity."

Although the criticism in the media is fierce, there are not many people who speak for him from the standpoint of Wang Shoufu. Especially after the media announced Wang Shoufu's commitment to Fox employees, the trend of the entire public opinion has actually shifted towards him. Such a change is really unexpected, and for those who have brewed it all, it is even more intolerable.

Sumner Redstone, the majority shareholder of Viacom ’s board of directors, is now patting the table and screaming the most fiercely at these unscrupulous media.

"These bitch-raised media, do they know what they are talking about? Why are they talking to the Chinese, do they not know what will happen to our market once the Chinese invade it? Is it? "

As the head of Viacom, the emperor who led the company to the top in one fell swoop. Lei Shidong's voice in the entire group is unique. He has the highest authority and the highest right to speak. Even the other shareholders are often deterred by his power.

After all, for most shareholders, all they want is profit. As long as Lei Shidong can always bring them generous benefits, even if they tolerate him a little, it's no big deal.

As it is now, when Lei Shidong is furious for something, most shareholders will endure silently without saying a word. But unfortunately, this is something that would only happen in the past ~ IndoMTL.com ~ As Redstone put down the power to return to the board of directors, and Viacom's interests are not as good as a day. Many shareholders are already dissatisfied with the company's current situation and Lei Shidong's temper.

So, when he shouted like this, there was a shareholder who said to him almost immediately.

"Mr. Lei Shidong, calm down. We are holding a shareholders meeting, we are not listening to you cursing others. If you want to curse, go back to your home, facing your wall and your dog. , Whatever you scold! "

"You!" Lei Shidong, who had always been grumpy, immediately transferred his firepower. But when he thought about the power behind this shareholder, he immediately extinguished this idea. Although he was grumpy, he was not a fool. Who can offend anyone can not offend, he is still clear.

So he took a deep breath and changed his tone, speaking loudly to all shareholders present.

"Okay, since it is a general meeting of shareholders, then I will talk about matters related to the general meeting of shareholders. First of all, as a major shareholder of Viacom, I must show my attitude. I will never accept this Chinese. It ’s impossible to bid, no matter how high he bids. Viacom will never betray a Chinese, absolutely! "
