Rebirth of the Tech Madman

...

BesTV was established in Dallas, Texas in 1985. Its main business is to provide home theater sources, rental video games, music retail, etc., and under Tang Huan's command. There is some overlap.

BesTV, which is now worth billions of dollars, owes its success to two aspects. First, the copyright of video tapes and electronic video games began to become clear through several famous lawsuits in the 1980s. secondly, the operation is well-managed and the capital operation is more stable and ruthless. For example, in 1990, it did not hesitate to pay 40 million U.S. dollars to acquire a competitor with more than 250 branches—erol' s.

In the eyes of the richest man, with the rise of the Internet, this kind of chain store has not been popular for a few years.

But the problem is that Summer Redstone really has a good plan. He plans to quietly take down BesTV, and then mortgage it to raise more funds to form a leverage effect and repel the backing of Tang Huan and John Malone. Barry Diller.

John Malone can simply calculate whether the deal is worth it or not, but the richest man has a broader vision.

Moreover, if Summer Redstone can still succeed when the two big shots unite, then he will be so mad that his tail will go up to the sky!

After a busy day, he even allowed his opponent to counterattack successfully and become a sought-after idol—this face, the richest man can't afford to lose it!

In short, in this time and space, of course it is not Summer Redstone's turn to be the protagonist.

Tang Huan, who had figured it out, immediately issued an instruction to come forward and intercept BesTV, and he would return to the United States as soon as possible to end this series of mother-in-law operations.

...

Summer Redstone initially quoted $8.2 billion to Paramount, and now his offer to BesTV has reached $8.4 billion.

This shows how exhausted and desperate he was in raising funds.

It can be said that as long as this leverage operation is successful, Summer Redstone will not only get Paramount in his pocket, but he will also cleverly repel the combination of Tang Huan and John Malone because of his risk-taking strategy. And the classic battle of casting Wall Street has just ascended to the altar.

Just when Summer Redstone was excited and secretly happy about the impending unbelievable victory, BesTV, who had greeted him with a smile, suddenly replied with an apologetic face—the deal was cancelled.

Summer Redstone, who finally got out of the petrified state, hurriedly asked the reason.

BesTV co-founder John Melker shrugged and explained: Given an offer of $8.8 billion including cash and stock, and the platform is clearly a better fit for BesTV than Viacom, the board couldn't say no. Attractive conditions.

After recollecting it, Summer Redstone could no longer maintain the low-key attitude of quietly preparing for a counterattack, and suddenly became furious. In front of the media reporters, he fired: There is definitely a conspiracy. Although Via Comb lost his chance to buy Paramount, but there are going to be dark times for Hollywood.

Reporters who don't think it's a big deal to watch the excitement, of course they will follow the snake with a stick and ask - then what is the conspiracy you mentioned specifically referring to?

Do you still need to ask? Summer Redstone replied in a frenzy, Don is like Darth Vader, secretly manipulating everything in Hollywood. In this evil force Under the shadow of the world, nothing but disaster awaits Hollywood.

Darth Vader, the famous villain in Star Wars, has become synonymous with evil.

Now Summer Redstone compares Mr. Richest Man to Darth Vader, which shows how resentful he is.

Seeing that there was a new way of scolding Mr. Richest, the reporter hurriedly asked about Tang Huan's reaction, but the spokesperson of Tang Huan's office simply replied, Tang is on a business trip.

The disappointed reporter turned around and teased Summer Redstone, who was in a rage, Don is not in the United States at the moment,

You are scolding for nothing, he can't hear it, and he may not even know your attitude towards him at all.

Somer Redstone might really be suffocated by the depression of casting eyes to the blind, and said angrily casually: Then I don't mind sending Don a mail bomb to let him know what I think .”

Now that things are getting serious, Gein has a very simple principle - scolding, scolding, don't do anything.

What's more, on February 26 this year, a bombing occurred at the World Trade Center in New York that shocked the world, killing 6 people and injuring 1,042; Bush's car bomb assassination.

Under such circumstances, mainstream voices in the United States are increasingly disgusted with extreme behavior that does not follow common sense.

The spokesperson of Tang Huan's office, who had always been cautious, accused angrily, As an important public figure, Lei Shidong should pay attention to the bad influence of his words and deeds. Tang will return to the United States soon. I hope that by then, Lei Shidong Shi Dong can apologize for the inappropriate remarks.

Summer Redstone, who started to get out of the runaway state, also realized his slip of the tongue, and unfortunately committed the crime against the wind, but how could he give in, so he said angrily: I don't want to waste time with you, the megaphone , really capable, Tang will come back now and confront me face to face.

...

At this time, the richest man has arrived at Baodao.

Just this year, Baodao officially passed the Cable TV Law, opening up the field of cable TV.

Tang Huan, who had been preparing for a long time, immediately took action and established the fourth TV station in Taiwan, breaking the long-standing traditional situation of Taiwan TV, China TV, and China TV in Taiwan.

On the surface, Qiu Fusheng, who belongs to the Time Group, which belongs to the local faction of Baodao, is in charge of daily operations, but in fact he only has 20% of the shares; Mr. Richest Man, TVB, and other business forces in Baodao hold the real controlling stake. Power also condenses the energy needed to protect it.

In addition, with the backing of Tang Huan and tvb's abundant program content resources, the TV station's entertainment channel and sports channel can start broadcasting immediately; the news channel is a little more troublesome, but it will start broadcasting by the end of this year at the latest Kaibao Island is the first in the industry to broadcast 24 hours a day without interruption.

One of the main purposes of Mr. Richest coming to Baodao this time is to cheer for its launch.

It can be said that since then, the TV stations controlled by Tang Huan have completely covered Greater China.

...

After attending a series of lively activities, the richest man slipped into Deng Lijun's residence quietly - in fact, the entangled relationship between the two has long been an open secret, and the reason why he kept a low profile was nothing more than to avoid Turn on the gossip media and try to be quiet.

Unknowingly, almost 10 years have passed since the 1 Billion Applause global concert.

In recent years, the singer who has been committed to girls' education and other public welfare affairs has been strongly urged by the fans to hold a second global concert, but the result is naturally only good.

Counting, Deng Lijun is 40 years old this year. Compared with the time and space where she was suffering from overwork and physical and mental trauma, these ten years have hardly left traces of time on her body-after singing, she still has pink cheeks and bright eyes. There are many manners.

The reason, in addition to proper maintenance, is mainly positive factors on the spiritual level.

Although it is impossible for Tang Huan to belong to himself completely, Deng Lijun has a successful career, especially Zi Wanshizuo.

At the beginning of this year, Jin Chang and Jin Ge, who were originally accompanying their father on the East Coast of the United States, deliberately gave up the hustle and bustle of the US President's inauguration and went to Asia to celebrate this milestone birthday for their mother.

The son's well-behaved and sensible, couldn't help but make the queen shed tears of joy.

To put it bluntly, a person with a high happiness index is young.

Naturally, Tang Huan was very concerned about Deng Lijun's upcoming global tour. After meeting for a few words, he asked worriedly, Can you adapt to such a heavy workload?

Do you not trust my professional level, or my physical fitness? Deng Lijun said with a smile: I ask myself that I have not given up my pursuit of music these years; sports activities such as swimming and horse riding will not be missed every week-use The words that Jin Ge used when playing video games can be described as full blood.

Then I'm relieved. Tang Huan thoughtfully helped Deng Lijun press her shoulders to express her gratitude for using her own advantages to help her expand and consolidate her influence in the Chinese circle over the years.

Enjoying the massage of the world's richest man, I feel like a big name. Deng Lijun covered her mouth and chuckled.

The two of them were lying sideways when a visitor came to visit.

...

The visitor was an old acquaintance—Song Chuyu who had been friends for more than ten years.

He said with a smile on his face: I guessed that Mr. Tang is here with Ms. Deng.

The richest man joked: Then Song, are you looking for me or Li Jun?

Both of you, I want to look for both. Song Chuyu said out of nowhere: It will be even better if you are together.

Tang Huan laughed loudly, without breaking the other party's mind.

Song Chuyu, who is in his early 50s this year, currently serves as the official chairman of the provincial government of Baodao. However, next year, Baodao will hold the first general election for the head of the first-level administrative region of the island.

In other words, whether he can continue to sit in this position depends on canvassing efforts.

This is also a concentrated expression of the many chaos in Baodao at this stage-black gold politics and local factions in Baodao have rapidly developed and formed in the political arena. Heavy greed.

Of course, big stars with international reputation like Deng Lijun and Lin Qingxia are undoubted magic weapons for canvassing votes, not to mention that there is a man with unfathomable energy behind them.

It's just that Deng Lijun and Lin Qingxia have always avoided this muddy water. Even if they have personal friendship, they may not show their faces and cheer for them.

The richest man is well aware of Song Chuyu's enthusiasm for official career.

He didn't shy away from discussing the situation on the island, You people are busy scrambling, but you don't know, maybe at some point, Li on the stage will sell you down to your pants.

Song Chuyu thought that Mr. Richest Man was telling a joke, and said with a casual smile, Even if you want to sell it, there is no buyer, and you can't afford the price.

Of course there are ready buyers. Tang Huan said leisurely: Isn't it the rising local power? As for the price, you can give it away for free.

Seeing that the richest man spoke seriously, Song Chuyu said in a low voice: This is tantamount to betrayal, what is he planning?

A pioneering reputation, coupled with safety after stepping down, is enough. Besides, the cost does not need to be paid by oneself. Looking at Song Chuyu, the richest man said directly: You didn't feel it, he Are you playing with Lian Zhan as a monkey, playing checks and balances and differentiation? The real successor will not be any of you. If you don’t believe me, remember my judgment, it won’t take ten years time, the results can be verified.”

In the year following Mr. Xiao Jiang's death, the Communist Youth faction in the Baodao Legislative Yuan established a sub-group New *** Connection to appeal for party affairs reform within the Communist Party. .

As the conflict with Li Denghui intensifies, leading figures such as Zhao Shaokang and Wang Jianxuan are preparing to leave this year and set up another mountain.

Song Chuyu, who was circling around Li Denghui, was naturally aware of this split change. However, in his view, this is a typical political ecology of one emperor and one courtier, which is normal.

Seeing that the other party was still obsessed with obsession and couldn't see through Li Denghui's true face, the richest man didn't force himself, picked up the teacup, and said slowly: Old Song, when you really want to set up your own family someday, don't hesitate, I support you .”

...

After taking the time to deal with the business affairs of Baodao and RB, Tang Huan returned to the United States on Silicon Valley One.

The media that had been paying close attention to Mr. Richest's whereabouts immediately rushed forward and told him that he had another enemy.

Tang Huan replied generously and casually with the attitude of a winner: I understand Summer Redstone's disappointment.

Redstone threatened to send you a mail bomb. A reporter provoked viciously.

I believe he will not do such an irrational behavior. The richest man in a good mood laughed, and jokingly ordered his assistant to remind the front desk staff on the spot that they still need to increase their safety awareness when receiving emails.

Seeing that the richest man ignored the clamor of the loser Summer Redstone, and the reporter who had no breaking news to report, he was not disappointed.

However, the unexpected change that happened the next day made them red-eyed again with excitement.

The richest man really received a mail bomb, and a staff member was seriously injured and admitted to the hospital. Although he saved his life, he will definitely end up with a permanent disability.

In fact, despite the overwhelming media hype, they didn't think in their hearts that Summer Redstone would take extreme actions as he said.

But the world is impermanent, and the mail bomb really appeared!

Things are going up! The entire United States was shocked! The world is in an uproar!
