Episode 1397 The Death of Herbert
Robert has a relatively large power within the organization, so he is the first person to know the news, but no one else is foolish, they also have their own news channels, and now they know all of them. The news is that they see Herbert’s eyes no longer hesitate just now, but are angry. Some people even have hatred in their eyes. They can’t tolerate such a huge Hanjian like Herbert. In the middle, if this is the case, if Li Cong really does something to them, it will be very easy to win.
"Mr. Lee, did Mr. Herbert invite you? We have a rule here, that is, it is impossible to come in without an invitation." Robert directly interrupted Herbert's bragging, and at this time he no longer wanted to continue. Watching this guy perform, the most important thing now is that nong knows why Li Cong came here, is it really for a Europa financial trading group?This is absolutely illogical, and Li Cong would not be so aggressive.
"Hehe, of course, I have never had many friends in Europe. As you know, I am very friendly to friends. Mr. Herbert was a good friend with me before. Most of the credit for coming to Europe is due to Mr. Herbert." Li Cong said with a smile. This sounds like two versions to people in two respects. Herbert naturally felt that Li Cong was giving him a face. But others don’t look at that, especially Robert, which seems to indicate that the two of them are allies. In the past, if the two were not opposed, with Li Cong’s support, Herbert would naturally He can be in the position, but in this situation, Herbert himself also felt that something was wrong. Thinking about what Li Cong did after he arrived, he seemed to understand a little bit. Could he be calculated by this guy? Up?But no, everything seems to be developing in its own way.
Li Cong’s words caused everyone to start whispering. It seems that today is not only a question of punishing Herbert, but whether he can be allowed to go out is still a very elusive question. Everyone looked into the house one after another. There are only a few guards left. Fortunately, these people are not Herbert’s people. If something goes wrong, they can deal with it. It’s just that Li Cong is in the room. Everyone knows the number one next to him. This guy If it were, it would not be easy to move Herbert, but just when everyone was thinking of how to solve it, Li Cong stood up again.
"Everyone, it seems that I am not here at the right time, so I will go out first. I can give you time to solve your problems, but I hope you can understand that I am also one of the directors. Today I am here to open The board meeting is not here to taste the coffee in your lounge." Li Cong's words made the people like Robert a sigh of relief, and Herbert's face was very bad. What is going on, I am helping You are here as a lobbyist, even you are out now, why am I staying here?
"Wait, Mr. Li, don’t you think this is where you want to come and leave? If you don’t make things clear today, no one can leave here. You come to Europe to play and we can’t control it, but from you After we came here, our whole Europe was shaking. Did Herbert invite you to help him after he stepped down?" At this time, a young child said, Li Cong and most of them frowned. It’s already so clear that this guy is actually so daring Li Cong. In the strongest time in Europe, the patriarch of the former Rothschild family might not dare to talk to Li Cong so much. Who knew this kid was so bold. .
Li Cong looked up at this kid. No wonder this kid is so arrogant. He turned out to be a rich second-generation. This guy is the new boss of News Corporation, Mo Keduo?Hiladico, his old man just died in a plane crash, and now the entire News Corporation is his. No wonder young people have such courage to challenge themselves. Young people don't know that the sky is thick.

"Hehe, it turned out to be Mr. Mo Keduo, I thought who would have such a great ability to challenge me, do you know that your words might bring disaster to you and your family?" Li Cong said with a smile , I didn’t put the person in front of my eyes at all. Although the guy in front of me was a hard bone, Li Cong had already seen it in just a few minutes. This newspaper business from Australia to the United States and back to Europe. The tycoon has not been integrated into this circle at all. It is no wonder that Australia and the Americas were places where Europeans exiled convicts back then. Just imagine a person who came from that place, how can they attract their attention now.
"Mr. Li, is this your threat to me?" Sure enough, it is a newborn calf who is not afraid of tigers. This is an evaluation given to this guy by everyone. There are many people who are much better at writing and writing, but give them 100 They didn't dare to talk to Li Cong like that, they couldn't help applauding for the courage of this guy, but on the other hand, they also felt that this guy was just like an idiot, which was looking for death.
"Hehe, I never threaten people, because what I say is the truth of the operation of the world. Now I announce that I will destroy your News Corporation. How long do you think it will take me?" To the surprise of others, no one would have thought that they were still targeting Herbert just now, and it was on these two people now.
"Mr. Li, I'm really sorry. Mr. Mo Keduo is also quick to talk. Let's not deviate from our goal. Now we need to have a good discussion. I hope Mr. Li can give us ten minutes, okay? Ten In minutes, we will give Mr. Li a satisfactory answer." Herbert, who had already breathed a sigh of relief, heard that Robert was talking like this, and when he looked at other people, he understood it. Li Cong took advantage of it. He, these people are going to take him for surgery right now.
Li Cong is about to go out when he finishes talking. There is a idiot like Mo Keduo as a pacesetter. At this moment, no one dares to stand up and stop Li Cong. Li Cong gave a deep look at Mo Ke when he left the men. Many, this guy felt that he was sweating all over for no reason. How could Li Cong put so much pressure on himself.
"Wait? Mr. Li, can't you??" Herbert also knew that if Li Cong were to go out like that, he would definitely not end well. At this moment, he also knew that he was pulling Li Cong, but it was Li Cong. Since he just gave him a smile, he went out. After a while, what happened inside has nothing to do with Li Cong. Li has a new goal now, which is News Corp.
In these ten minutes, you can just look at the information of News Corporation. When you enter it again, it is not that simple. In the operation of News Corporation, asset restructuring is a common method.Sometimes, such mergers and acquisitions of industries are not only for seeking excess profits, but also for internal balance considerations.
In recent years, News Corporation, a subsidiary of Mokduo, has made aggressive acquisitions and mergers.In July 1993, Murdoch purchased Asia’s startv, and Star TV’s programs gradually covered India, Japan and other Asian countries and regions.Murdoch established a British digital television platform in 1998, broadcasting more than 0 satellite channels, and launched an interactive sports channel in 1999, which changed the traditional way of watching TV and made viewers the dominant player.In December 1999, Lao Tzu of Mokdor entered the German TV market through his satellite TV group British Sky Broadcasting; in January 2000, Mokdor and Nokia jointly discussed the use of Internet to carry out information activities.On February (Sunday, News Corp. acquired 4% of Singapore Telecom's shares for US$1 billion. In 2001, Mokkeduo reorganized News Corp’s satellite platforms and related assets in Western Europe, Asia and Latin America and integrated it into Sky Global Network Group (works From then on, he began to look around the world from the sky.
In the eyes of Mo Keduo, the United States plays a decisive role in the future of News Corp.In order to enter the American market well, Mochdeau immigrated to the United States from Australia in 1970, but the problem was not completely resolved. He launched the "Empire Sky" project, and the United States became his biggest obstacle to building a global satellite.According to the provisions of the US Constitution, foreigners are not allowed to own American television stations.In 1985, Mo Keduo became American citizenship.
In 1985, Mokduo acquired 50% of the shares of Century Fox.In the following years, Mock has owned the Fox News Channel, Fox Sports Channel, National Geographic Channel, and Speed Channel in the US market.
Mock realized that if he wanted to gain a foothold in the American media market, he had to acquire a satellite TV company in the United States.In 2002, Mockdor focused its acquisition on directtv, a satellite TV company under Hughes Electronics.directtv is the largest satellite TV company in the United States, with 10 million users in the US satellite TV market.But in order to win it, the Mo guest can be described as exhausting, ups and downs.On April 9, 2003, Moc’s dreams came true. News Corporation announced that it had reached an agreement with Hughes Electronics to acquire 19.9% of the shares of Hughes Electronics, the parent company of directtv, held by General Motors at a price of $14 per share. On the same day, Mocha purchased 14.4% of Hughes’ shares from stockholders at the price of yuan per share at the close of the day. Subsequently, 34% of Hughes’ shares were transferred to the American Fox Television Company controlled by News Corporation.
The acquisition of News Corp. cost as much as 6.8 billion US dollars, but Mo Keduo is still very happy, because this acquisition marks Mo Keduo's transformation from an Australian newspaperman to the world's most powerful media predator.In the eyes of MOKDO, directtv is like a shining jewel on his crown, giving him an unprecedented energy and power, and he finally realized his dream of covering the world with satellite TV.
In June 2004, News Corporation was reorganized on a large scale, the company's registration place was also transferred from Australia to the United States, and sought to be listed on the New York Stock Exchange.In December of that year, News Corporation officially became a registered company in the United States.
Outside of the United States, the holding subsidiary of News Corp. which has shown the most se is the British Sky Broadcasting Corporation (bskyb).Currently the company can broadcast about 4 digital TV and radio channels, including more than 1 paid channel, about 0 free-to-view TV and radio channels, and 90 pay-per-view channels.These channels include both bskyb's own channels and third-party channels broadcast on the "Sky" platform.As of mid-2004, British Sky Broadcasting has 7.4 million live satellite users, and is currently the only pay-TV platform operator in the world that is beginning to make a profit-total operating revenue reached 3.2 billion pounds, and its pre-tax profit in 2004 reached 480 million pounds. .
In Asia, Star Media Group, a wholly-owned subsidiary headquartered in Hong Kong, is the leader in expanding its business.After continuous additional investment for many years, in FY03, Star Media Group achieved profitability for the entire year for the first time.
Capital management is an important means for the rapid growth of media companies.The media industry is one of the most profitable industries in the world, but it is also the most competitive market, and the phenomenon of property rights transfer is endless.
In the United States, the media industry can create more than 535 billion US dollars of wealth each year, accounting for more than 5% of the gross national product.News Corp., a US company, will undoubtedly add a surprising amount to this number.
Since 2002, News Corporation’s total revenue and operating revenue have achieved double-digit growth for three consecutive years.
In the past ten years, Murdoch has surrendered almost all of its debt-operated companies to banks, saving a lot of money for a more stable global layout.In this regard, Li Cong admired the two men very much, no wonder they would have such a huge asset.
Satellite TV is the top priority in MOKDO’s strategy.He believes that News Corporation is the creator and operator of popular news and entertainment products. To achieve success, it can only rely on television. The best way to attract people to the television is satellite. The future of News Corporation lies in satellite TV. on.
In 1983, News Corp. began to get involved in the satellite field and founded Sky Channel in the UK. Due to lack of experience, Sky Channel soon died. This time, News Corp lost US$ 0 million.Mo Keduo was not discouraged.In 1989, News Corp. founded Sky Television in the United Kingdom. In 1990, the television station merged with British Satellite Broadcasting Corporation to form the British Sky Broadcasting Corporation (bskyb), which is controlled by News Corp.
In 1991, News Corp. attacked for the second time. Affected by the Gulf War and the global economic recession, its satellite TV burned US$0 million per week. Eventually, the company’s debt reached US$8 billion, and News Corp. was on the verge of bankruptcy.In this case, Mochdor had to sell the magazine and printing industry, but Mokdor did not slow down the pace of establishing a satellite TV network around the world.
News Corporation is one of the world's largest media groups, with extensive investments in satellite TV, cable TV and interactive TV.At the same time, News Corp. is also the world's leading pay-TV platform operator. It owns the British Sky Broadcasting Company (bskyb), the US Direct TV Group (directtv) and the Australian Fox News (foxtel).
Among them, the British Sky Broadcasting Corporation is recognized as the world's most successful digital pay TV operator. By June 2004, its live satellite users had reached 7.4 million; and the US Live TV Group had more than 120,000 users.
In Australia, Fox Australia has 800,000 satellite and cable subscribers.In Asia, Star Media occupies a leading position in the satellite TV market. From 5 channels at the beginning of 1991, to the current broadcast in 7 languages and more than 40 channels, covering 300 million in 53 countries and regions. Multi-viewers, up to 25,000 hours of original programs per year.
In 1998, 18% of Fox's shares were successfully listed in the United States, fulfilling the first goal of MOOC.At the end of 2004, News Corporation successfully listed on the New York Stock Exchange Jiao Exchange.In this case, it is no longer necessary to retain the two listed companies.If all Fox stocks can be successfully recovered, it means that Moikeduo has realized the "curve into the United States" strategy and still maintains the integrity of News Corporation.
Recently, News Corp. has established a series of strategic ix media companies to develop the Internet news blog and community network market.Through this acquisition, this company controlled by MOKDO has gained an outstanding "fashion en."
After the agreement is completed, the number of monthly subscription users of News Corp in the United States will nearly double to more than 45 million.As an ix company that mainly provides entertainment, mood, games and community network services, but also provides pictures, music and video appreciation, it is very important to News Corporation, because it can not only immediately double the number of users of the group, but also help the group The expansion of the network business provides a good foundation for the ix company's brand to merge with our existing online brand. This is a good opportunity to provide a wider range of services for today's people.
In September 25, News Corp., which is controlled by Mokduo, purchased another network video game company affiliate station including Hehe for US$650 million.At the same time, it also has two entertainment stations, including one that is very popular in movie mi.
News Corp. has conducted several acquisitions in recent months. Mochduo said that the company should give priority to expanding the network market.
"Hehe, it really is a good group. How about our group's news media unit?" Li Cong spent a few minutes looking at the news group's information and felt that such a huge news group should be his own , Putting it in the hands of Mo Keduo is really a talent.
"Boss, I have to be honest. Our news media is not on the same level as these. Our news media is currently slightly influential in Asia. Look at these super influential newspapers around the world. , It has nothing to do with us.” Number One said honestly, what News Corporation needs is a foundation, not something you can have if you have money, such as reporters. New reporters compare with old reporters. But there is a big gap. Old reporters may have news on a small matter, while new reporters can only run around.
"Haha, it turned out to be like this. You can arrange it so that our people will start paying attention to News Corp. later I will personally direct this acquisition station. Do you think News Corp. has many assets?" Li Cong estimated that it would be needed this time. Use a lot of funds.
"News Corp.’s current various industries need at least 390 billion euros in total. It is an absolutely powerful group, but their large group also has major disadvantages, that is, they are not a whole, just like the current network and newspapers, They are antagonistic, we can start from the inside, which is very beneficial for our acquisition." One said, the competition between the new media and traditional media within News Corporation is not a day or two.
According to a report, the development of smartphones and tablet computers has gradually made the Internet the most popular way to get news.
The number of viewers of cable news last year decreased by 14% compared with the previous year.In addition, since the project began to track investigations, the number of viewers on the three major televisions of CNN, Fox News and Microsoft National Broadcasting Corporation has declined for the first time.
Just as Li Cong was thinking about this issue, the big men opened, and Herbert was no longer there. It was exactly the same as Li Cong had expected. According to the satellite of the investigation department, there was a corpse just now. He was carried out, and there is no way to confirm if that guy is Herbert, but there is nothing wrong with it.
"Mr. Li, Mr. Herbert has left early due to medical reasons. He had signed a transfer agreement with our group just now when he left. Now the shares of the Europa Financial Consortium belong to our News Corporation. I believe Mr. Li does not I'll be surprised." Mo Keduo said with a smile. He was very scared just now. I didn't expect that Li Cong would be defeated by himself. Those people were afraid that Li Cong would not dare to pick up this hot mountain, but he was himself. Don’t be afraid, anyway, I’m already facing up with Li Cong. What happened to his tens of billions of euros of shares? This is a very simple matter. Of course, the most important thing is to make Li Cong look bad.
"Very well, yes. Anyway, I gave those things to Mr. Herbert. You can keep them. It seems that I have nothing to stay here next. This is your own meeting. I’m leaving now.” Li Cong said with a smile. Everyone didn’t understand why Li Cong could laugh at this time. In fact, Li Cong’s subordinates had already reported and verified that the person was Herbert. The news of the death of these people spread to Herbert’s family. Herbert’s family is not a persimmon. At this moment, the special forces of their family have begun to clamor here. If they still don’t If you leave, I’m probably going to suffer. I’m sorry for the people in this house. I don’t know how many people can escape after a while. Of course, Mo Keduo will definitely not be able to escape, and Li will never give it to him. Chance.
Everyone didn't think about why Li Cong would speak so easily. Could it be that the world's richest man who was so powerful before has disappeared?Li Cong added tens of billions of euros as gifts to Herbert in the Zheng E plan. Is it that way to admit defeat?I don’t want these before?This is not Li Cong's style.
Herbert’s death will definitely bring a huge shock to Europa. In the shock, Li Cong will definitely benefit himself the most. The Skull and Bones have to marvel at Li Cong after knowing all of Li Cong’s plans. The skill of writing is indeed strong in others. In the future internal friction, it can be said that the death of Whybite caused the split of Europa.
Five hours later, "Sir, we have obtained the latest information. The gun battle in the Europa Parliament just killed dozens of people. Now fewer than ten people have escaped, and the Herbert family's special operations forces have been destroyed. Karelina said with a report. She really couldn't believe that such a thing would happen. Generally, such high-level organizations should not have such a rage. It should be a political group step by step. The beginning of the operation, I really did not expect such a thing to happen.
"Hehe, when they killed Herbert, they should have thought of what was going on. Now it's their turn. They all asked for it on their own. Did the Moker die?" For other people Li Cong They don’t care much. Once those people are not the patriarchs of their families, even if those people have problems, the whole family won’t be crossed right away. It doesn’t benefit me much, but Mo Keduo is here. It’s different. If something goes wrong with this kid, there will be few people in the whole family who can stand up. This is mainly because their father and son don’t have a good face to the family members. At this moment they have an accident. It would be nice not to come out to celebrate.
"He is dead, and the European branch of our group has also begun the acquisition of the entire News Corp. It is estimated that it only takes hua less than 130 billion euros to win, and because Europa currently has no resistance at all, we The speed will be 30% faster.” Karelina said with a smile, and she was very happy with every success her husband achieved. At this moment, I can understand why Li Cong treated Herbert before. That's good, although it is ruined, and it has also gained News Corporation, Europa has been sluggish for at least a year and a half.
"Sir, I believe there is one of the best things you will be excited about. Taking advantage of this hunluan, we may get the entire Louvre." Karelina reported such a huge good news, let Li Cong also stood up, what did he say?This is the former imperial palace, how come it is in my own hands.
It turns out that there is a family in Europa that manages these things. Although on the surface these monuments belong to the government, they are all for the common people. In fact, only a few people know who they are, just like Louvre. Like the palace, there is such a closed area, but it has always been used by this family.
The Louvre is one of the oldest, largest and most famous museums in the world.Located on the north bank (right bank) of the Seine River in the center of Paris, France, it was built in 2014 and has reached its present scale after more than 800 years of expansion and reconstruction.The Louvre covers an area of about 45 hectares (including lawn), and the building covers an area of 4.8 hectares.The total length is 680 meters.Its overall building is in the shape of "u", divided into two parts, the new and the old. The old one was built in the Louis XIV period and the new one was built in the Napoleonic era.The pyramid-shaped glass entrance in front of the palace was designed by the Chinese architect IM Pei.At the same time, the Louvre is also the oldest royal palace in French history.
For owning such a good thing, even has always been disliked) has a very tortuous and complicated history, which is intricately woven with the history of Paris and even France.Of course, people come here to see the world-famous art treasures with their own eyes, but also to see the Louvre itself, because it is not only a great artistic masterpiece, but also a testimony to the history of France for nearly a thousand years.50 French kings and queens have lived here, and many famous artists have lived here.
Li arrived here from the first time. The original owner here is dead, but his son and nv'er are still looking at this palace very reluctantly. It used to be the place where they grew up, but because his father died, This place is occupied by a bigger figure, and that figure is Li Cong.
Li Cong wanted to go over and tell them that you shouldn’t hate me because your Laozi squandered too much money. Before he owes me, I can only accept your house, but Li Cong watched. Their pitiful appearance is a bit unspeakable.
