Rebirth of the Entertainment Master

A smile appeared on Xiao Yunhai's face, he stood up and greeted her.

"Ms. Christie, how have you been?"

Christie smiled and said: "It's very fulfilling. Our team is very excited to see so many companies that can make a lot of money. This time I came here to report to you the situation of our investment companies."

Xiao Yunhai nodded and said, "Please tell me."

Christie took out a thick stack of materials, handed it to Xiao Yunhai, and then introduced the general situation.

In addition to Storm Games, Christy invested in four projects in oil, natural gas, cosmetics and real estate during this period, spending 86 billion US dollars.Including Storm Games' 100 million dollars, in just one month, Xiao Yunhai's [-] billion dollars was reduced to [-] million dollars.

Christie is going to use the money to speculate in stocks.

Listening to Christie's explanation and looking at the report on paper, although Xiao Yunhai couldn't see anything on his face, he still admired it very much in his heart.

Although he doesn't understand the above companies, oil and natural gas are non-renewable resources, and they are sought-after goods in all countries in the world at any time. In the previous life, the war launched by the United States was to put it bluntly for these resources, and it can be said that they will never Worry about no buyers.

Needless to say, cosmetics, people all over the world know that it is a profiteering industry. The cost of more than five yuan can be sold to hundreds or even thousands, and it can even feed a country when it is done.

As for real estate, as long as there are people, the house will not worry about selling.

Xiao Yunhai was very satisfied with these investment industries chosen by Christie, and said, "How about these companies?"

Christie smiled and said: "Of course it is very healthy. Take oil as an example, we cooperate with the American Chalk Oil Company. It is an old company. Although it has been on a downward trend for the past ten years, since last year, the new As soon as the young bosses took office, they showed great momentum. This time they had to ask outside for help to buy a large oil field in the Middle East, otherwise we would not be able to take advantage of it. Of course, the price we paid was also very high. Big, $50 billion to get 30.00% of oil field shares. And natural gas...."

Xiao Yunhai waved his hand and said: "There's no need to say anything. When you called me back then, I already told you that you are experts, so you can do whatever you think suits you. I only look at the final result. I will keep this information here. Bar."

Christie said confidently: "Mr. Xiao, I can guarantee that these projects will bring you huge profits in the future."

Xiao Yunhai smiled and said, "That's good. Is there any question?"

Christie said: "Recently, we will take a serious look at all the industries under your name. Whether it is New China Cinemas, Magic Special Effects Company, Fantasy Special Effects Company or Marvel Comics, Yunyi Shopping Network, Jiujiu Music Network, the potential is huge. It’s frighteningly big. It can be said that if an ordinary person can own one, it is enough for him to become a rich man. But now they are all in your hands. I believe that within two years, the world’s richest man will be replaced.”

Xiao Yunhai heard too many compliments, and he didn't feel a sense of accomplishment in his heart. Instead, he was keenly aware of the problem in Christie's words, and said, "Do you mean that I have the potential of my North American theater circuit?" Not big?"

A glint of appreciation flashed in Christie's eyes, and she said, "Mr. Xiao is really amazing. Yes, I think you should sell the four theater chains of MGM, Paramount, Disney and Warner immediately."

Xiao Yunhai frowned, and said, "Ms. Christy, I heard you right. The North American theater chain brought me more than 100 billion US dollars in revenue last year, and you actually asked me to sell it?"

Christie said unhurriedly: "That was the past, not the present. Now Huaxia's Yanhuang Cinema has been built and is already in business. In half a year, Paramount's cinema will also be completed, and by then we can There will be two extremely powerful theater lines covering the North American region, and your combination is the third one, and it is still a fragmented and rather old theater line. Do you think it can compete with others?"

Although Xiao Yunhai didn't say anything, he actually agreed with Christie's analysis in his heart, because he also vaguely felt this way.

Today's North American theaters are completely saturated. If Paramount is added in the future, it will be overloaded.

In the past, there were fewer wolves and more meat. In order to be able to release their own films, the major film companies had to bow their knees to the theaters and be oppressed by them.

But now there are more wolves and less meat, the situation is likely to be reversed, and the theaters are begging the film company to release their films, because there are too many theaters.Once the movie is not available, it is very likely that there will be no movie to play.

In the past, they were begged by others, and in the future they will be begged for help. With the fierce competition and the modification of the box office share, the gap can be imagined.

Christie saw that Xiao Yunhai was moved, and continued: "The market value of the major theaters has returned to the state before the economic crisis. If you sell it now, you will definitely make a lot of money. But once Paramount With the emergence of theater chains, I believe the market value of the theater chains in your hands will plummet. At that time, there is really no need to regret. Mr. Xiao, I know you are a little bit reluctant, but I think the North American theater chains are under your name The least potential in the industry may even become a drag on you."

After listening to Christie's words, Xiao Yunhai stood up, walked to the window, looked at the vehicles coming and going downstairs, suddenly laughed, and said: "Ms. Christie, do you know why I bought it in the first place?" Are these theaters?"

Christie didn't speak, but looked at Xiao Yunhai with eyes full of wisdom, waiting for his next words.

Xiao Yunhai said: "Actually, I am not doing it for making money, but for my movies. If I had to choose between a businessman and a filmmaker, I would choose a filmmaker without hesitation. Now Yanhuang Cinema has Established, with our relationship, they can't refuse to show my film. So, it's time to sell the North American theaters."

With Xiao Yunhai's current status in the world's entertainment industry, coupled with his identity and background, Yanhuang Cinema would not dare to make a move on his movies even if it had the guts to be ambitious.

Chapter 1014 Buying a Plane

Xiao Yunhai wanted to be free before, and he didn't want his films to be restricted by the outside world. Now that he has the Yanhuang Cinemas, and the North American Cinemas will not be able to bring him greater benefits in the future, he might as well abandon it. Invest in a more lucrative industry.

Christie originally thought that it would be very difficult to persuade Xiao Yunhai to accept her suggestion, but she didn't expect that Xiao Yunhai agreed after only a few words, which made her feel strange about Xiao Yunhai's courage and determination admiration.

You must know that if you want to decide to give up a project that can bring you tens of billions of dollars a year within 10 minutes, it is not something ordinary people can do.Even those Wall Street tycoons will be very cautious when facing this problem. At the very least, they must hold a general meeting of shareholders.But in this way, the best time is often lost.

At the beginning, Christie provided a lot of good suggestions to the old client, but unfortunately there were problems in the decision-making stage, which caused Christie's dissatisfaction, which is why she was unwilling to stay in a large company.

For the first time, Christie said with a look of admiration: "Mr. Xiao, I have to say, you are the most courageous person I have ever met."

Xiao Yunhai laughed and said: "I have always thought so. However, what I want to tell you is that it may not be an easy task to sell them. Back then, in order to be able to buy theater shares from those capitalists, I Promised a series of unequal treaties. Among them, if you want to sell, you can pay a premium of up to [-]%, and the buyer must be the one who sells it to me. Unless the other party doesn’t buy it, I can’t sell it to anyone else .”

Christie frowned and said, "Mr. Xiao, I don't understand. How could you agree to such a condition? This is simply outrageous."

Xiao Yunhai said: "When I first bought these theaters, it was just after the outbreak of the economic crisis. In addition, the government strictly ordered the eight major Hollywood film companies not to monopolize the theaters. With cheap prices and such unequal conditions, I got a part of it. Shares. Otherwise, how could they buy it for me so kindly. By the way, except for Paramount, their 20.00% shares are all my own, without any restrictions."

Christie smiled wryly: "It seems that you are really for the movie, otherwise, no normal businessman would agree to such a condition."

Xiao Yunhai said: "I'll leave the matter of these theaters to you. When dealing with MGM, be gentle. They and I are a strategic partnership."

Christie nodded and said: "I will focus on this matter in the near future. Mr. Xiao, I have calculated these theaters, and you can get at least 400 billion U.S. dollars. Should you also give us some funds? We Now there is no penny, and there are many profitable industries out there."

Xiao Yunhai thought for a while, and said: "I can leave half of it for you. However, we agreed in advance that with this money, you don't have to worry about the 200 billion dollars you bet."

Christie said happily: "Great. With this 200 billion, all the business plans we have made can be implemented."

Xiao Yunhai joked: "It's not for this purpose that you gave me this idea."

Christie smiled and said, "We won't do such unprofessional things."

Xiao Yunhai said: "All the materials are in Huaxia, and I will have my wife send someone to bring them over. Ms. Christie, if you are free at noon, may I have the honor to treat you to lunch?"

Christie smiled and said, "It's my honor to have lunch with you, the future richest man."

At noon, the two found a good restaurant and had an authentic Italian steak.

Seeing eight plates of beef weighing half a catty being stuffed into Xiao Yunhai's stomach, Christie rarely showed an extremely surprised expression.

After dinner, Xiao Yunhai personally drove Christie home, while he himself went to find Kerry, and together they came to the Boeing Company.

For a big customer like Xiao Yunhai, Boeing Company naturally did not dare to neglect and gave him full respect.

Under the introduction of Kerry's friend Mei Sen, Xiao Yunhai knew that rich men like him all had their own private jets, and some even had many of them.

Last year alone, Boeing sold more than 100 aircraft, and the accident repair rate was basically zero.

Xiao Yunhai is going to buy a passenger plane that can carry 30 people. The appearance can be worse, but the safety performance must be guaranteed to the greatest extent.

According to Xiao Yunhai's request, Maison recommended three models to him.

To say that this Boeing is worthy of being the world's best aircraft manufacturing company, there are more than ten aircraft that meet Xiao Yunhai's requirements in the airport alone.

Xiao Yunhai carefully looked around, and finally chose the same type of aircraft as the Presidential Air Force One of the United States, but it was several grades worse in terms of safety, but compared with other private aircraft, it was already the best.

Of course, the price is also very expensive. Together with the purchase of flight lines, going through various cumbersome procedures, etc., it cost him a total of 3000 million US dollars.
