Treasure Hunt America

They even know how many residences they have in New York. In this case, you and that David. Hearst should know too...

Jin Muchen pondered that the Hearst family was famous for collecting antiques. The founder of their family in the past, William. Hearst is a famous antique maniac. He has collected world-renowned antiques in his life, which can be said to be countless.

And that William. Mr. Hearst, he is famous for collecting European antiques. The most exaggerated thing is that he built the Hearst Castle in California. People went to Europe to study, and even invited specialized designers from Europe, and also bought several abandoned European castles from Europe, dismantled the scraps of those European castles, such as wall tiles, and shipped them back. He came to the United States and built the castle specially.

Anyway, that guy's behavior can be described as ruthless. In order to satisfy his own thoughts, it can be said that he is absolutely willing to spend a lot of money.

Up to now, their family has been passed down for three generations in the United States, but all the heirs of their family have retained the habit of collecting antiques. After nearly a hundred years, it is said that their family invested in antiques. No less than ten billion dollars, so under this premise, it is not surprising that Jesse knows the people of the Hearst family.

But what makes Jin Muchen even more curious now is that what exactly did Jesse and Kate find to provoke the Hearst family's pursuit, and this time they must have provoked the wrong people.

"While we took turns to stand outside their residences, I was also inquiring about the recent situation of the Hearsts through other people, and the result really gave us some discoveries. One of Kate's informants, who used to be in The Hearst family is a servant, so I know the situation of the Hearst family very well, but she just lost her job recently, so we contacted her, and we found out a lot of useful information from her mouth. …”

Jesse continued to say at this time that Jin Muchen was also in the spirit at this time, and it seemed that he was about to approach the truth of the matter.

"You know, the Hearst family has been passed down to the present, and there are more than 60 direct family members. These people are definitely a big family with flourishing branches in the United States, but among these people, not every one All of them are talented in business, and there are even many people who do not even have the ability to guard success. Most of them are second-generation ancestors who only know how to eat and wait to die. If all the family property is handed over to these people, the final result will definitely be Sooner or later, they will be defeated. So when their family passed down to the second generation, that is, William Hearst, the head of the family set up a family fund, and they set up a few Every year, a fund will take out a part of the profits of the family business group and put it into this fund to carry out some investment activities. Every year, members of the family, especially those who do not have the right to inherit the consortium, can get money from this fund. Receive a living allowance so they don't have to live that kind of embarrassing life."

Hearing this, Jin Muchen nodded. Indeed, he had heard of this kind of family inheritance a long time ago, and it is also very popular in the United States, so the saying that a rich man is only three generations old does not hold true in the United States, because they found a better way. Reasonable way to keep the family wealth going.

Moreover, many American families, big and small, will choose this method to allow the family's wealth to continue, which is different from our country.

Although, like China, many of the big families in the United States are from grassroots, but they are more professional when it comes to dealing with wealth. If their family really does not have a suitable successor, then they will choose a special one. Professional managers, who come to help manage the family's wealth, will never let the family's wealth be squandered by the unsatisfactory descendants.

In China, after many families get rich, no matter how unsatisfactory their descendants are, they will try their best to pass the wealth into the hands of their descendants.

Americans are more open-minded. They know that the money in this world is inexhaustible, and their life is over, but their descendants are not that material, so they will choose the way of family funds to continue their wealth.

China, on the other hand, will try its best to cultivate its heirs, regardless of whether that person is the material or not, the final result is often that within two or three generations, those wealth will be wiped out.

"And in this generation, the Hearst family's fund size alone has reached more than 36 billion US dollars. With such a large-scale fund, who can you say if you change your mind? And more than These, this is just the money in their family fund. You must know that their family still controls 15 daily newspapers, 36 weekly newspapers, plus more than 300 magazines, and one owns 29 TV stations, covering 18% of the entire North American region. The user's TV group, in addition they also have a+e network group, and many other subgroups, and branch companies, how much wealth is involved in the specific Hearst group, no one has given a complete statistics now, but Some people have probably estimated that the assets of the conglomerates on the surface of their family now have at least more than 50 billion US dollars, and this is only on the surface..."

The numbers Jesse said already made Jin Muchen feel dizzy and dizzy. When he was hospitalized because of the injury he saved Helen, David. Hearst's assistant, West probably gave him some knowledge about the Hearst consortium, but at that time he usually went in with his left ear and out with his right ear, and didn't take it to heart.

Just know that the Hearst Group is a traditional big chaebol in the United States. In the United States where the rich are gathered, it is also a good big chaebol, and there is money.

But today, when he heard Jesse give him such a popular science, he finally understood a little. The scale of the Hearst Group, although it is incomparable with the scale of the US service or Dalmore, which is over a trillion, but This is their own private consortium.

Only a few parts have been taken out for public listing, and there are many parts that have not been listed publicly. To put it bluntly, this is a modern family business, not like Morgan Stanley or Mobil Oil, which looks very large. It is a big company, but no one has absolute control in it. You can have a few tenths of a percent of the shares. In such a company, you are a major shareholder.

But this Hearst Group is different. Although there are shares of outsiders, the Hearst family still occupies the bulk of the group. In this way, the gold content of their wealth will be high.

In addition to their family fund of more than 30 billion yuan, there are so many real estates, antiques, and those assets that are public, especially those that are cross-controlled with other big financial groups, and that part of the general chaebol. They don't like public announcements.

If this part is included, the wealth of the Hearst family is quite scary, and this is not the most valuable thing of their chaebol, the most valuable thing of their chaebol is what they have in their hands That would cover 18 percent of all television stations in North America.

Those TV stations, but their channels to influence the American people, are the key to becoming the mouthpieces of the United States. It is precisely because of the existence of these TV stations that any politician who sees their Hearst family members will have to kneel and lick them. After all, if they offend their family If you are unhappy, they only need an order, and as long as a TV station smears you, it will be enough for you.

And other big American companies are even more afraid to offend them. They even have to pay them obediently every year to advertise to them, otherwise they will be unhappy and give you When some negative news comes out, it is enough for you to walk away without food.

In this world, it doesn't matter whether you are from the United States or China, as long as a company with a scale of hundreds of millions, which one has a clean ass?

Therefore, these TV networks are the core wealth of the Hearst Group. The next thing, even if Jesse does not need to say, Jin Muchen knows that it must be within the Hearst Group~www.wuxiaspot.com~ Because of the change of power, There was already civil unrest, and what Jesse said next confirmed his guess.

"We went to find the informant of Kate, according to the person, now David. Hearst has not been seen in the Hearst Group for a long time, you must know that he used to be a standard workaholic, every day. He will appear in the company office for more than ten hours, but recently, it has been almost half a month, and he has not leaked his face inside the company, and even several very important shareholder meetings, he has not attended. Participating in, now within the Hearst Group, the people in charge of hosting the work are Petty Hearst, and Thomas Hearst, and Dylan Hearst, these three Hearsts, among them Petty Hearst Sterling is David Hirst's aunt, and Thomas and Dylan Hirst are father and son. The two Thomas are David's uncle and Dylan is David's cousin. They are now Among the Hearst Group, it is the largest equity owner after David Hearst."

Hearing what Jesse said here, Jin Muchen basically understood. It seems that there should be a coup d'état within the Hearst Group recently, and David. Hearst looks like the situation should be very bad, either he has lost power or has been exiled.

It's no wonder that the other party will attack Helen, it seems that this is to cut the grass and root it! So who are the three manpower responsible for running the Hearst Group who started Helen? (To be continued.)
