Chapter 662

D Wendi looked at sitting on the opposite side with rosy complexion, moist skin, boundless charm between the eyebrows and eyes, and Ivana, who exudes charming charm, sighed softly.

"Ivana, it's really enviable. If you look at your current state, you will know how much Andy dotes on you. You are just like a beautiful Yu drop rose now. It seems that you have never stopped being irrigated! "

Ivana gave D Wendi a bad look, but the curve on the corner of her mouth was more and more obvious. For D Wendi, her best friend, she was very recognized. First, there was no conflict of interest. Second, identity and status were equal. The most important thing was the news group behind her.

Ivana doesn't care about D Wendi's dirty ridicule and praise, and she knows better than anyone that women can't bear to talk with each other, and women play hooligans, and men really need to stand aside.

"Come on, isn't Rupert crazy about you? Has the quality of life fallen a little recently?" Ivana heard a trace of jealousy in D Wendi's tone, and her face was even more dissatisfied because of her questioning.

"Don't mention it. The more powerful he is now, the worse he will be in two or three years..."

"Come on, there's Viagra, enough to satisfy you." Ivana chuckled and took a sip of the liqueur.

"You think I didn't give him something to eat. His prostate gland has some problems. The doctor asked him to use less Viagra. I'm quite helpless. Forget it. Don't say anything unhappy. Tell me. What can I do for you? You can't tell me on the phone. "

D Wendi is a little upset when she mentions Murdoch. After all, she is in a wolf like age. The depression caused by the disharmony of life makes her quite helpless, which is the life she chooses.

Ivana was able to feel D Wendi's resentment, but she didn't care. She smiled and said: "since last month's 5 billion purchase of Dow Jones, your media empire has become stronger overnight."

D Wendi just listened quietly and didn't continue to ask questions. For Ivana's opening remarks, I was a little surprised. Besides just finishing the acquisition on August 1, Dow Jones's share price almost soared to the acquisition price of News Corporation. Next, the subprime mortgage crisis exploded, bringing a precipice like plunge. In the past month, the market value has shrunk 40% and many have opened At the beginning, he envied Murdoch's media, and turned his guns to ridicule.

Although Murdoch valued the influence of Dow Jones group, and knew that the economic crisis would pass sooner or later, and the market value would recover, the losses were still huge.

"You also know the huge impact of the subprime mortgage crisis that started in August. Andy has been buying the team recently. He intends to buy the Los Angeles Dodgers controlled by your news group. I asked you to ask if your family would like to sell the team." Ivana blinked her long eyelashes, looked at her face and was surprised. Then she asked Wendi, who was suddenly smiling.

"I envy your family. It's not only good at making money, but it's not ambiguous to spend money. It's true that making money and entertainment are the same. Football, rugby, basketball, and now baseball. OK, I can go back and ask for you. However, you know, since I married Rupert, I have deliberately avoided the group's things. I can only ask for you 。”

Hearing D Wendi's explanation, Ivana couldn't help sniggering. For this ambitious woman who wants to gain power by controlling Murdoch, she still knows something about it. Now she has been deliberately keeping a low profile, avoiding, but also playing tricks, trying to use time to dilute the conjectures and attacks of the media at the beginning.

As a neighbor, through nearly two years of contacts, D Wendi's long sleeve and skilful dance, can be said to be very in place for the use of his current identity. Leaving Murdoch's pace of establishing his own network and social circle behind is very steady and planned. Ivana doesn't believe her ghost words. Look at the flash of light in her eyes just now, she is not a woman at ease People.

"That's troublesome. Andy has several goals in his hand now, but Dodge is still in Los Angeles. This advantage is obvious. It can also offset the disadvantage brought by some teams' achievements and debts. In fact, it may be a good thing for news group to sell dodge. After all, the current Koster is using your family's money to help He makes his own money. In the end, he may not need to spend a cent of his own money to get the Dodgers from News Corporation, which only gets a little interest every year. "

When she heard Ivana's words, dwindy was shocked. She had heard about the Dodger team, but she didn't know the specific situation. Now, it seems that there are a lot of felicity in it, but this is a very good starting point. After all, the old man's recent life is not easy.

Under the subprime crisis, the stock price of its listed companies has plummeted. In order to keep the panic and stabilize the stock price, news group has begun to increase its holdings. The banks are reluctant to lend, and just completed the acquisition of 5 billion US dollars. To be honest, everyone is short of cash now.

Maybe it's a good way to cash in on useless assets. "OK, I understand. If Rupert wants to sell it, I'll tell you the first time. By the way, what's the price?" Wendy raised his arm on the table and asked the waiter to put the food in front of him."At the beginning, News Corporation spent 4% on dodge. Three hundred million dollars. Andy is willing to offer five hundred million dollars to take over. " Ivana said.

D Wendi nodded his head. The price is still sincere. Although the current economic environment is very bad, after all, it has been two or three years since the 430 million yuan, and the U.S. dollar is now devalued. Considering these factors, the price of 500 million U.S. dollars is more appropriate. However, news group wants to make money through this, even if there is no profit space.

Lunch was spent in a pleasant conversation between the two people. At first, dwindy was in a much better mood. Sitting in the car home, she narrowed her eyes and started to think. She was measuring whether she would test Murdoch's attitude towards his involvement in news group affairs now.

You should know that his ex-wife's children are so hostile to her that they even forced Murdoch to make some compromises, and they are always on guard of her. "Now, the time is not ripe. Forget it. Let's play the sidedrum first. It will be long in the future!" After a few murmurs, there is a chill in her eyes. Her ultimate goal is to redistribute Murdoch's shares with pillow wind, and she can get a guarantee for herself. However, this kind of thing can't be worried. Murdoch is not an old fool. To say that he hasn't prepared himself, she doesn't believe that he killed her.

Back in the lavishly decorated three story penthouse on Fifth Avenue in Manhattan, d-wendy saw Murdoch sitting on the sofa with his two daughters watching cartoons in the living room and asked, "Why are you so free today?"

"I was a little tired, so I left work early."

"What's the matter? What's wrong? I'll have Salam come over and

"Ha ha, it's OK. Really, I'm a little tired. I'll take a nap later. You don't have to be nervous." Murdoch chuckled, with a happy look on his face. Although he sometimes spoke a little mean to his wife, he was very warm to his care and love.

"Honey, don't pester your dad. Come on, I'll take a nap." Looking at the two daughters lying in her husband's arms, she gestured to the two maids, took the child away, followed her into the children's room, and returned to the living room about ten minutes later. Standing behind the sofa, she gently massaged her husband's shoulders to relieve fatigue.

"Ivana asked you. Is there anything?" Murdoch relaxed on the sofa, take off his glasses, enjoy the care of his wife.

"Well, something really happened. She asked me about the Los Angeles Dodgers. Andy took a fancy to them and wanted to buy them."

"Oh? This young man is really interesting. Seeing Andy Smith, it makes people feel that the changes of the times are so impressive. Now the young people are really amazing. It takes only more than a year to make money that will catch up with my life's money! "

Every time Murdoch saw Andy Smith's report in the newspaper, he felt a little sad. Andy was so young, "what price is he going to offer?"

"Buy it now, 500 million cash. By the way, what's the situation of this Dodger team? How can I hear that the current team owner, Coster, is using the group's money to help him make money, and then take the money from the group for the original price?"

Murdoch agreed with the offer after all. The interests of both sides of the transaction were very balanced. Hearing his wife's question, Murdoch smiled and said: "it's not that simple. The shares have always been in the hands of the group. The original acquisition of it was for the Fox Sports two broadcasting rights agreement. Koster always wanted to borrow money from the group to buy the Dodgers, and then pay back slowly, However, it has not been approved by the board of directors. Now the broadcasting rights agreement has been signed in 2012, but it can also be sold, as long as it can be agreed that fox has priority after the expiration of the broadcasting agreement. "

She did not expect that things would be so simple. She was very clear about her husband's lifelong commitment to the development of media group. Nothing else could be more attractive to him than the media.

"That is to say, you agree with Andy Smith's purchase intention and offer?"

"Why don't you agree? The price is more sincere. Now people all over the United States are staring at the huge amount of cash in his hand. I am also more optimistic about this young man. The cooperation between me and him has already begun. This young man is always unexpected, but it's hard not to admire his talent and strategic vision..."

"When did you cooperate with him? Why didn't I hear about it?"

"Ha ha, Andy Smith, the Alibaba e-commerce invested in China by Softbank company founded by sun Zhengyi and I, is also the individual shareholder with voting rights of Alibaba." Murdoch slightly closed his eyes and said lightly.
