Obviously, Adrian doesn't intend to change his mind, although he doesn't care about the position of the richest man in the world - if he really wants to be a success, he won't cash in secretly. Microsoft's 5 shares were held in two accounts at the beginning, and more than 5 shares should be reported to the CSRC. "Forbes" is not a pig killing list, but it is not a good thing to be too swaggering. He was originally a famous miracle director in Hollywood, and his attention has been enough. Moreover, with his fortune of more than 20 billion, he can enter the top 10 of the list. This popularity still let Gaizi go.
But if there is a chance, why not try to make more money? In fact, Claude and the whole group have the same plan. The more money they can flow, the better. Their expansion is far from stopping.
It's not easy to predict the date accurately. Although Claude's sentence "even those who are ready can't be sure when to make the best move" is a little exaggerated. At least now they have a bottom line in their mind, but before that, they must not be sure. Even uncle Anderson can't analyze more information. People like Warren Buffett have hardly touched it stocks, let alone Adrian and Claude.
In fact, a few days ago, two people who have been paying close attention to the stock market began to talk about this, but there has been no consensus. It seems that there is still no progress today.
At this point, Claude again turned the LCD to Adrian: "ed, you see the news."
According to Yan, there is an article in the middle of the official website of Cisco, with the name of CEO John chambers. Although a little puzzled, Adrian looked at it carefully. There was not much written on it. It was an open letter from chambers, which first reviewed the development of Cisco, then introduced the achievements made in the next few years, congratulated the company's market value of more than 500 billion yuan, and encouraged everyone to create more brilliance and surpass its old rival Microsoft.
Does this have any special significance? Adrian glanced at Claude, who was elated and apparently had come to a conclusion, waiting to see his own joke. Staring at him, Adrian continued to speculate on the open letter. What did this guy see from it? Chambers is very confident. He doesn't realize the risks in this. Is it OK to surpass Microsoft? But what does this have to do with what they're talking about wait! Surpass Microsoft?!
Adrian suddenly raised his head to face Claude's eyes. Claude gave a smile.
"When Cisco's market value exceeds GM's!"
"When Cisco's market value exceeds Microsoft's!"
Both of them said it at the same time. Claude was stunned, but his eyes lit up. He stretched out his finger in the air and said, "you're right, ed. it should be when Cisco surpasses GM!"
Since the market value of Cisco has exceeded 500 billion yuan, which is not far from that of Microsoft and general motors, after they surpass Microsoft, they can wait for them to surpass GM again, which is not much less. You know, GE has occupied the global market value for a long time, but the decline is not big. Market analysts on Wall Street claim that this is just a correction for the stock market, so investors are worried but don't think much about it. But immediately, the news about the federal court ruling that Microsoft monopolized came out again. Then there were all kinds of negative news. The stock market fell again. This time, it was a flood that opened the dam gate. Many people didn't react, and the stock they held in their hands shrank by more than half! Panic they immediately began to panic selling, only a few days, most of the it stock has become waste paper.
many places of Dutch act of suicide, Golden Gate Bridge, The Empire State Building, have also welcomed new guests. Fortunately, the bubble burst is confined to it stocks, relatively mild, even if people do not Dutch act, and there is no black Friday dumpling.
As for Adrian, after the stock market began to fall slightly, he did not pay attention to it. Facts have proved that he and Claude were correct in their judgment. Especially after the billions of dollars worth of stocks of Cisco, Microsoft and Dell were sold at the same time, the end was already doomed. What he is doing now is just waiting for the capital to return, and the rest is the business of regert.
Ten times leverage of stock index futures plus 10 billion capital, it is not difficult to earn another 10 billion. Adrian even wanted to use 30 times leverage at the beginning, so the investment was less, or even only a few hundred million. However, as his financial adviser, regert strongly objected. Although the investment is small, the risk is also greater. Only with a small and broad scale, can he use 30 times of leverage. Now that the capital is sufficient, why take risks? Investment banks and funds are not without them.
Claude, who had always supported him, also expressed his opposition. Adrian naturally gave up the plan. Anyway, it took a little longer. Anyway, this fund will not be invested in the company for the time being, so as to avoid other people's worries.
Congratulations, ed In the office, Claude toasted Adrian. The amber liquid was dazzling.
"Congratulations, too, crow. We're going to get to the next level." Adrian raised his glass and touched him. At this time, the first large-scale sale had just passed, and many people were still waiting.For these people, Adrian just shrugs his shoulders. Since he speculates, he should be prepared to lose money at any time and control his own greed. Watching the stock go up all the time, he is reluctant to let go and always wants to go higher. Once it falls and hopes to rise a little, he will sell. Even the innocent retail investors are not worthy of sympathy, let alone those who are fully equipped The guy whose family is in.
The most typical example is Britney Spears' parents. Adrian gave them 0.01 Cisco stock, which is now worth 50 million. When did these two greedy guys have so much wealth? In order to get more, I put almost all my property into it.
However, on the day when Cisco's market value peaked, Adrian gave them a call and asked spears to sell immediately. Although he did not elaborate, just such a sentence, but spierce finally had a little bit of brain, although hesitated, but in the stock market after a small fall in his hands immediately put out the stock.
in fact, it is already late at this time. 50 million of the stock seems to be in the middle of the total value, but who will take over if the bubble breaks? Even if spears made a quick decision, he only cashed in $5 million and $6 million respectively with his wife, and the rest were all over. It was really a cry.
Adrian had planned to keep silent and watch them fall into the abyss, but if you think about the couple's face, once they become shoeless, even if they can be dealt with in time, something may happen. Now let them go, they have to think about it even if they want to make trouble, and Adrian has no scruples when he moves his hands.
Well, it's all about the future. Let's go back to the present.
"Tell me about your plans, ed." Said Claude, after a sip of whisky.
"Now?" Adrian picked his eyebrows.
"Of course, I can also prepare early." Claude shrugged with a smile.
"You should have guessed, crow." Adrian looked at him. "We don't have much room for improvement in the production and distribution of film and television and television broadcasting, so where is the next direction? As CEO, you must know, unless you are unqualified."
"Of course I know," Claude laughed. "I'm just curious about what your goal will be, though there's not much choice."
"What else, universal records!" Adrian gives the answer.
Since film, television and radio can't be moved for the time being, it's inevitable to expand on records. Although in a few years, several major record companies will begin to merge, but they will have enough say when they have a good chance. So Adrian aims at universal records.
Universal records and universal pictures are not two children born to one mother, but they are not totally unrelated. Universal records, formerly MCA records, was originally a concert booking company. After its development, it merged Universal Pictures in the 1960s and then sold it to Panasonic in the 1980s. In the mid-1990s, MCA records was acquired by siglam, and universal pictures was also acquired by siglam after many twists and turns, and the two companies gathered together again.
Siglam also changed the name of MCA to universal records. Unfortunately, universal pictures had to sell it to AC media for lack of funds. Despite this, siglam did not give up the idea of developing media, so he later acquired the merger of polaroid and universal records, as well as several entertainment enterprises.
But they haven't learned the lesson of blind expansion, and they haven't been able to get rid of the dilemma that Adrian and Claude created in order to acquire Universal Pictures. Siglam is now on the verge of bankruptcy. With such a good opportunity and a lot of money in hand, it naturally became the target of AC media.
Although EMI is also suitable, and BMG, Sony records and Warner records may not be unable to start, it is more convenient for them not to merge with Polaroid. Moreover, although motion records and island records, which should have been acquired by Polaroid, have been acquired by AC media, universal records still has a large market share. If we can win and integrate with its MCM, we will become It's not hard to be the world's largest record company.
"Besides, Universal Pictures and universal records are not exactly a pair?" Adrian grinned and spread out his hand, then snapped his fingers. "But before that, there's one thing to do."
"What's your idea?" Claude picked his eyebrows.
"One A big plan. " Adrian rubbed his chin and chuckled.
In the quiet woods, the sun shines through the evergreen leaves, and there is no sense of cold at all. Rao is so, still has the handle parasol pestle on the ground, will these sunlight be isolated.
"The club is quiet and there are not so many annoying paparazzi, so if I need to relax, I'll come here and have some coffee and some fresh air." Adrian, standing outside his parasol and staring at the distant scenery, said, turning back, "the world is still beautiful and worth fighting for - do you think?"Sitting under his parasol, a middle-aged man in his forties was somewhat absent-minded. He had thick curly black hair, a suit that covered his whole body, and a pair of broad sunglasses. His skin was a little dark, but he also had an abnormal white. But when he turned his head, he could occasionally see the white spots under his neck.
"We never seem to have dealt with each other, Mr. Adrian." The other side said coldly.
"Yes, but two of my record company's top female singers are your fans, MJ." Adrian came over with a smile and sat down at the round table.
That's right. The middle-aged man he met today who had to erect a parasol and wear sunglasses in the woods was the same superstar Michael Jackson, who once ruled the music world in the 1980s and caused numerous waves. In the 1990s, he was plagued by leukoplakia and child molestation cases, and had huge fans all over the world!
"I know, they're all good singers, but it's not about your invitation, is it?" Michael said rudely, seemingly wary of Adrian.
Adrian laughed disapprovingly: "we do not have intersection, but because of this, we can have a more direct and open conversation."
He took a sip of coffee, then sat up straight and looked at Michael: "I want you to have Elvis Presley and Beatles, as well as some of Sony's record rights, MJ."
After a pause, he added, "2.2 billion dollars."
Michael raised his eyebrows in surprise and then refused Adrian's request: "a lot of people have asked me this question, Mr. Adrian, but my answer has never changed."
Adrian chuckled. "You're a smart guy, MJ. Selling Elvis and Beatles music rights is the most beautiful investment you've ever made, but you're not that smart at the same time. You don't seem to understand your situation."
"My situation?" Michael sneered. "It's thanks to those unscrupulous journalists and the media. In order to get the ratings, they can throw dirty water on a person. Justice and justice don't exist for them. What they have to do is to attract the public's attention as much as possible."
At last, he stopped and stretched out his hand at the collar to calm down his excitement.
But Adrian didn't worry. He shook his head. "You see, I'm right, isn't it? You still don't understand. Or you know something, but you don't want to admit it. "
Michael took off his sunglasses and glared at Adrian. He seemed to want to say something, but he finally put up with it: "if that's all you want to say, Mr. Adrian, I think I can go."
"Do you have plans to release a new album next year?" Adrian suddenly asked this question, the corner of his mouth that carefree smile has not changed, "know how to do if I am your boss? I try to make this album full of frustrations in the production process, and use various excuses to delay publicity, so that the sales of the album will decrease, and then let people claim through the media that you are past your breath, you can no longer make good music, you take drugs, you have plastic surgery, you degenerate, you have no medicine. Then you bribe the people around you. When you leave Neverland, you take two children in for a stroll - just stroll, do nothing, as long as you create signs of children coming in - and then do another thing in 1995, and the hype is more fierce, even forcing the police to search Neverland. No one will support you, no one will sympathize with you, and even if they do, they will not make too many voices. You will only see the mainstream society criticizing you, and then you will be truly decadent and silent. As long as you reveal a little bit of ideas, they will be eliminated. Finally, there will be some accidents... "
Adrian's hands spread out. Although he didn't finish, the meaning was obvious. Michael's chest was up and down, staring at him. His fists were clenched tightly, as if he wanted to give him a hard blow.
"Are you threatening me?" He asked, gritting his teeth.
"No, I'm just reminding you," Adrian shrugged. "You should understand that I'm helping you, MJ. Your record copyright is worth 2 billion at most, and I'm sincere enough to offer 2.2 billion. Sony's vampires want to sell 1 billion."
He looked into his eyes: "you are very talented, MJ. I appreciate those talented people, but you are also a black man, so when you achieve such a great achievement and master such a large amount of wealth, it is bound to attract other people's eyes. You are like a child holding a bundle of dollars but walking in a busy street. Anyone can easily steal the wealth from you. Who makes you black? If you sell it to me, it's different. I didn't let you suffer. At the same time, you also distracted other people's attention and eliminated Sony's idea of vampires. Moreover, the extra 200 million can let you do more things you want to do and help more children. Why not
