Chapter 978

Barry Diller and frank came together and achieved the best results. After a detailed exchange with Li Feng, in addition to the acquisition of EMI, they established two new investment directions, which are the basic investment of the whole industry.

Soon, they left excitedly and prepared for the next formal acquisition of EMI and contact and negotiation with Dolby and IMAX industry foundation companies.

Li Feng smiled and declined the invitation they said to attend the signing ceremony of EMI. Li Feng felt that it was not necessary to stand out by himself. Why do you have to be a head bird if you can use it? Just be a low-key boss behind you.

In the next few days, time passed in a hurry. Li Feng had a good time in Paris. Similarly, during the upcoming World Cup, the signing ceremony after the official acquisition of EMI did not cause much discussion and waves, except for people in the industry.

After all, now the whole of France and even Europe are talking about the world cup. European people don't care about EMI film companies. Naturally, other continents don't care. It caused a sensation in Hollywood and avoided a lot of trouble.

After all, Europe used to be the master of the United States. American companies often cause a sensation when they buy some companies with a long history in Europe. Some old brand companies in Europe always have a great influence in the upper echelons of the United States.

……

EMI and even Europe's film industry used to be brilliant. At that time, when the film industry was just rising, Europe was the center of the film industry. At that time, the control of European film companies such as EMI over the world's film industry was far stronger than today's Hollywood. At that time, Hollywood was eating ash behind.

Similarly, several major media giants in the United States have also begun to get busy. If MGM was a little weaker than the giants in Hollywood, MGM has completely leveled the distance with the giants today.

The acquisition of EMI means that the global distribution channels are completely rearranged, which is very important for a Hollywood giant. These giants can't be more clear. Although MGM originally had a great reputation, it is practical to say that MGM's strength in Hollywood is better than others such as fox, paramount and universal, The most important thing is that MGM has lost its global distribution network.

Now, after Li Feng took over, MGM has madly expanded relying on Tianyu, a well funded media group, and completed the reconstruction of the global distribution network from Asia to Europe. Relying on MGM's own heritage and Hollywood advantages, today's Hollywood has returned to the seven patterns again.

The sudden re emergence of MGM, which was originally weak, will naturally have a new impact on the original pattern of Hollywood. No wonder there is a lot of excitement in Hollywood after MGM's acquisition of EMI, and the vibration in the industry is really not small.

……

On June 10, the lively opening ceremony of this world cup was held at the French stadium. Li Feng and others naturally prepared everything. As time approached, Li Feng and his party got on the team after making preparations and headed for the French stadium.

Different from the opening ceremony of the Olympic Games for a few hours, the opening ceremony of the world cup is only 30 minutes, and the opening ceremony is followed by the opening game of the world cup, as is the case this afternoon. Li Feng watched the world cup for the first time in his previous life. The opening ceremony and the opening game were all in the middle of the night. Now he comes to France in person from the afternoon.

Li Feng and his party naturally have VIP seats. Although they are not the most central position with those football giants, they are also the VIP position second only to these giants. They are also close to these giants.

Li Feng was very impressed by this world cup in his previous life. Even now, Li Feng is still impressed. For example, one of the theme songs of the World Cup - the cup of life. Unfortunately, at the opening ceremony, he sang another theme song of the World Cup - "do you mind if I play football"!

For this theme song, Li Feng has only heard of such a theme song, but he knows nothing about it in detail. After all, there is another theme song - the cup of life, which is more popular. However, Lin Hai's first football novel is called "do you care about me playing football".

According to Li Feng's mind now, it is estimated that Lin Hai Tingtao, the first person in online novel sports in the future, should take his name according to the theme song of the 98 World Cup when writing his first novel and choosing the title of the novel.

Before the opening ceremony, Li Feng also received an invitation from the football leaders in the center of the VIP stand. Li Feng met and talked with these famous football leaders in previous generations, and met the newly appointed FIFA president Blatter, the outgoing Brazilian and avilange, known as the king of football.

Similarly, I also met UEFA president Johansson and the organizer of the world cup in France, the future UEFA boss and the famous player in French football - Platini.

He simply said hello and exchanged greetings with the rest of the people, but Johansson, the big man of European football, held Li Feng, expressed his welcome to Li Feng's joining the Premier League and European football, and congratulated and praised Chelsea's rise and achievements last season.

……

At the beginning of the opener, Li Feng met the Brazilian team and alien Ronaldo at the height of the sun. Similarly, Li Feng met Luo's beautiful girlfriend Suzanne, who was impressed by his previous life, on the big screen at the scene.

In addition to some knowledge at the opening ceremony, the opening game of this world cup was not as wonderful as people thought. At the beginning, Brazil took the lead in just a few minutes. Most people thought it would be a big victory for Brazil, but the fact is just the opposite. Maybe Brazil was careless. In the end, it just defeated its opponent 'difficultly' and took the lead 2-1, One of them was an own goal.

What impressed Li Feng most about this world cup was not only that France and Brazil entered the final finals and France won the championship, but also Croatia's "dark horse" posture, which surprised the whole world.

Of course, what makes ordinary people more happy is the rumor that aliens suddenly "fainted" before the final. In the end, aliens were sleepy and didn't feel at all in the final. Even the state of Brazil from the beginning of playing was suspicious.

After the game, although they congratulated France, there were more rumors about the "black curtain". After the world cup, there were all kinds of rumors. For example, it is said that after the world cup, many players in Brazil received "rewards" from France, often millions of dollars.

In addition, it is said that before the game, Da Luo fainted and even foamed at the mouth because he drank his teammates' drinks, which almost made people think that he would have to be reimbursed. After all, Da Luo was only 21 years old at that time. He was elected World Footballer for two consecutive years, and his reputation was at the height of the sun. They say that the 98 World Cup is da Luo's way of "preaching for the king".

According to the media, between money and fame, Ronaldinho undoubtedly chose the latter. After all, the opportunity to become the king of the ball is in front of him. Ronaldinho will not give up. Since you don't want to give up, let your state disappear.

……

Although later generations have repeatedly said that this was just an ordinary food poisoning, the "black curtain theory" is obviously more newsworthy than simple food poisoning. More importantly, there are facts to prove. For example, in the second year of the world cup, France cancelled all debts of Brazil.

To remind you, France was the largest creditor of Brazil at that time, just as China was the largest creditor of the United States. Although the size of the debt was different, in the second year of the world, France cancelled Brazil's debt unconditionally and quietly.

There is even a saying that France has negotiated with FIFA and Brazil to ensure the biggest advantage of Brazil in the next World Cup and the 2002 World Cup. Finally, at the 2002 World Cup, Brazil did not meet a strong team from the group stage to the final final, just like walking to the near final.

Of course, there are also Platini's later remarks about France's "hands and feet" in the World Cup draw to ensure that France will not encounter a big favorite Brazil before the final. When these news came out, it was spread all over the world.

If these news are true, Li Feng can only say that the most depressed one is the alien Da Luo. Look, whether Brazil, France and FIFA are all beneficiaries, but the only depressed one is da Luo.

Originally, Darrow was expected to be the king according to the right path in the 98 World Cup. At that time, Darrow was at the height of the sun. The world was praising his talent and the new generation of football king. Unfortunately, he missed the 98 World Cup, even if he won the championship in 2002, but at that time, Da Luo was not the only king in the world football world, including the rise of super giants such as Zidane and Rivaldo. Their reputation was no worse than that of Da Luo, and the quality of preaching was widely questioned.

In the common concept of future generations, there are two players, Bei crow and Ma Dazui. Under these people, there are many super giants, including Da Luo, Zidan, Cruyff, Beckenbauer and so on.

……

In Li Feng's view, these rumors may not be groundless, but they have not formed the mainstream. How can it be if they all want to be innocent? There are too many resources and wealth available in the world cup, international football and so on. Several people can remain innocent. Later generations, including Platini and Blatter, finally came out of the bribery scandal and stepped down.
