Chapter 1421

"Last year's merger and acquisition of sigram global brought us too many problems, management, finance and law... I'm not saying that this business is not worth doing. We have also seen the value of sigram wine industry. We split it from sigram global group at a good price, which has greatly relieved our cash flow pressure..."

In Beverly Hills, a celebration party is being held at the home of the film emperor, 20 million club members and top male star Nicholas Cage to take over the wolf man of Wall Street. Song ya, the big boss who comes to visit, pays attention to maisil, CEO of Vivendi global in the TV picture.

As Vivendi Global's annual report revealed that it lost more than 13 billion euros last year, the company's share price plummeted again. Messier stood up again and held a press conference to fight the fire and throw the pot. "Our next fiscal year can finally be light. Now our main work will focus on integrating Vivendi Global's global media, And continue to solve the problems left over by the history of sigram global group. I am honored to announce that Vivendi global has reached an agreement with the shareholders of American television network on the repurchase terms... "

8.6 billion. While disclosing its annual report, Vivendi global announced that it chose to implement the repurchase agreement signed by little Bronfman and Barry Diller in early 2001. Messier was equivalent to taking out the cash from selling sigram wine for American TV network, and eliminated a major hidden danger for the company, Because Barry Diller and John Malone, the shareholders of American television network, have been accelerating the expansion of American television network, Vivendi global can save some money by implementing one day before the repurchase deadline at the end of 2002.

After a big stone fell to the ground, Barry Diller stepped into the ranks of billionaires with this transaction. After being defeated twice by leishidong, he finally achieved good results with the original generosity of little Bronfman.

"Wow..." the other spectators behind song Ya exclaimed.

"What is this? How much did it cost Barry Diller to get the American TV network from Edgar when he was a child? "

David Gefen around Songya was very upset. Barry Diller bit such a big bite of fat and turned to his men behind him, "more than 4 billion?"

"Two times, a total of 4.5 billion. Barry Diller managed the TV network well, with an increase in market share and ratings, coupled with continuous mergers and acquisitions... "

His subordinates replied, "8.6 billion... It should be more reasonable to reduce one billion. The reaction of the capital market also shows that everyone thinks that this transaction has lost money. "

"Hehe, Messier can't help it. He must wipe little Edgar's ass..."

There were other people waiting. David Geffen was inconvenient to spray on the spot, so he had to say bitterly: "Barry Diller is really lucky. Little Edgar was found out by him."

Although revenge was great, he had a stronger relationship with the Bronfman family than Barry Diller. After all, he made more and more stable money from the fingers of the three rich generations. Who knows that the neuropathy suddenly decided to drive himself out? David Geffen can't help brooding at the thought of this.

At this time, the people reacted that song Ya had made a bankruptcy bet with little bromfman. Vivendi global plummeted again. Isn't little bromfman's wealth greatly reduced again? Including David Geffen, his eyes subconsciously floated to the black law old man around him.

Songya noticed from the corner of her eye that everyone was quietly looking at herself. Charlice, who was holding her arm, was closer, but it was hard to give any response. She continued to focus and calmly stare at the TV screen and cut off the topic: "American TV network... John Malone has more shares and makes a lot of money?"

"Of course."

David Geffen replied, and then turned to gloating, "but John Malone was in trouble. After atandt was merged with TCI company he managed, the management and shareholders began to rebel at the beginning of the year and wanted to drive him away."

"It's all because of the stock market disaster. Everyone's life is difficult." President of Disney copyright company, Linton, who was just promoted and vice president of Disney group at the beginning of the year, came to join the discussion.

The New York stock market is far from coming out of the downturn. Of course, the new little George government also wants to save it. It has made great moves such as cutting interest rates and extending the Internet tax holiday, but they can't bring back the confidence of investors.

It's easy to share weal and woe with rich and noble people. It seems that the stock market will not recover for some time, and problems begin to occur in all listed companies. Not only atandt and TCI, but also AOL and Time Warner, which have been combined for a long time, are also infighting, and the trouble is even worse.

Not resigned to playing second fiddle. When AOL was in the market at high time, Steve Keith, the boss, naturally grasped the power of the new company. But with the Internet companies being poked up by the stock market crash, the Time Warner side naturally felt that the business was too poor. So, by disclosing the financial fraud of AOL before the merger, AOL was not to be outdone by AOL. In turn, they also accuse Time Warner Group of financial fraud, and the two sides will be brought to justice soon.

Jim Clark, an old friend of AOL who joined Netscape, is now full of bags with Steve case.

Affected by this, Time Warner Group's internal people are floating, so it has attracted Disney, an external strong enemy. Whether in the Disney department and Warner department in Hollywood, the second-line boss of the recording industry, Disney Records and Warner records at the end of the five, or ABC and Warner television network, the business scope of the two companies coincides very high, and fierce overall competition begins.

However, Disney is also unstable. Emperor Eisner's large investment in the acquisition of Infoseek and other Internet companies in recent years has become a joke with the stock disaster. Similarly, the newly disclosed annual report shows that Eisner's own shareholding has surpassed Roy of the Disney family for the first time, officially becoming the largest individual shareholder, which has aroused a lot of dissatisfaction from other shareholders, including Roy Disney.

"I heard that your company will soon be renamed Eisner group?"

David Geffen smiled and joked when he saw Linton.

It seems that the Emperor himself, who has worked for many years and finally suppressed his master's family, is really interested in this aspect. He is testing through the media. This is not a secret in well-informed Hollywood.

You can imagine how angry Roy Dinis is now.

"Ha ha..."

Linton did not dare to take over, and laughed twice in the laughter of the crowd.

Songya doesn't want to put Linton, a staunch ally, in an awkward position. He winks at Hayden with the remote control. Hayden will change the channel.

"James Chanos, the boss of Kynikos hedge fund, suddenly issued a short report, pointing at the energy giant Enron..."

"The report questioned that Enron's profitability and return on investment were not enough to support the current stock price. At the same time, it pointed out that Enron CEO skilling had secretly cashed out his shares in violation of regulations, although he kept publicly claiming that Enron's stock price would look at $120..."

CNBC's news really diverted everyone's attention from Disney. It's right that Enron is a multinational giant, and James Chanos, the boss of Kynikos hedge fund, who issued the short report this time, has a big background. In 1982, when he was only a small securities broker, he killed Baldwin united insurance company with a research report, creating the largest bankruptcy case in history at that time.

Moreover, like his colleague Soros, James Chanos is also very good at using the media after he founded Kynikos hedge fund. He is becoming more and more powerful. He dares to open his hand to the giant Enron.

"Wall Street wolf author Jordan Belford's friend, Milken, the king of junk bonds, was also sent to prison by James Chanos?" David Geffen asked.

"Not really? James Chanos was the first to publicly bearish on Milken's detzon securities in 1984, but Milken was only jailed in 1990... "

Linton recalled and replied, "but it's also very powerful. It's said that Milken's resistance in those years was very fierce. He even hired private detectives to track, investigate, harass and threaten James Chanos."

"Oh, by the way..." Linton looked at Songya again and reminded him, "James Chanos seemed to work at Deutsche Bank at that time."

"Yes."

Song Ya nodded slightly to show that he knew that he had no time to pay attention to the war between Enron and Kynikos funds, which had never intersected. What he thought was Vivendi global. After Messier disclosed the huge loss of last fiscal year, Addison of Deutsche Bank and Paulson of Goldman Sachs both said that they would continue to be optimistic about Vivendi global.

Even according to the lowest share price of Vivendi global when they, Lehman and Salomon Meibang took over last year, if we take it alone... After this wave of huge losses, these strategic investors of Vivendi global should at least have a loss on their books. Now they still say they are bullish. I'm afraid they have to do it by pinching their nose?

Considering this, he couldn't help but gloat a little, so he sniffed gently.

"Ha ha..."

The idle people did not know why the old Mafia laughed, but they all laughed for a while.

David Geffen didn't laugh. He glanced at the flatterers around him and was ashamed of their company. "Aplus, I have something else to do. Let's go first." So he lifted his feet and left.

"OK."

Songya greeted Linton and hugged Charles to send him.

"The stock market disaster has led to chaos in American companies this year. I feel this is an opportunity for us."

David Gefen whispered as he walked, "afterwards, you are very decisive to evacuate Yahoo and other companies."

"No, now the media still like to laugh at me with that." Song Yaqian is modest. Yahoo, with a maximum of more than $4 billion, cleared away with less than $1 billion. He often feels flesh pain when he thinks of it.

David Gefen shook his head, "it's very powerful. How much did you spend when you entered the field..."

"Hey! David! APLUS！ Charles! "

At this time, the host Nicholas Cage found them. The top Hollywood male star, who was wearing flip flops with beach shorts at home, covered with a nightgown and exposed his thick chest hair, had a wine bottle and a wine glass in one hand, and shouted drunk, "don't... don't go! Don't you like me here? "

As a member of the Coppola family, he is ambitious to use this surname to express his willingness not to rely on the family to gain a foothold in Hollywood. At the same time, the Coppola family keeps a certain distance from the Italian directors De Palma and alpasino, Martin Scorsese, Robert De Niro and Joe Percy Hollywood, Then he was a little farther away from the Italian enemy in the little book, so Songya gave him the protagonist of the wolf of Wall Street this time.
