v5 Chapter 385： Rupert Murdoch

Wan Sheng and Anita have not seen each other for nearly three months.

Xiaobeisheng's newly-married, the three-month period is a bit too long. When the two returned to their home that night, they felt a bit of rain. Among them, the beautiful shyness, needless to say, the next morning, the two men finished dressing up and returned to New York International At the airport, we boarded the plane to Los Angeles together.

From New York to Los Angeles, almost across the United States.

It takes more than five hours to fly by plane, but due to the three-hour time difference between the two places, when you arrive in Los Angeles, you need to subtract the three-hour time difference, which is equivalent to only flying for three hours, but the scientific "calculation" is 3 hours, the time is still a bit long.

After the two arrived in Los Angeles, it was already afternoon.

Wan Sheng and Anita went to the Murdoch family ’s manor in Los Angeles, which was their main purpose of visiting Los Angeles-to visit Anita ’s father, Rupert Murdoch, the legendary helm of News Corporation. Rupert Murdoch is currently cultivated in the Los Angeles manor, and his wife Deng Wendi is also in this manor.

Because of Dundee's sake, Anita did not like to come here. She always felt that the woman was greedy for her father's money.

But this time she had a good discussion with Wansheng. She wanted to visit Rupert Murdoch. Rupert Murdoch already knew that she was interacting with Wansheng and wanted to see this 'prospective son-in-law' together. The two came as planned.

The estate owned by the Murdoch family in Los Angeles is very luxurious and covers a very large area. From the entrance to the villa, it is nearly 500 meters. When I was approaching, I met Dundeewen who was waiting there.

Deng Diwen is less than 40 years old, very beautifully dressed and very young.

Wan Sheng looked at Deng Dewen carefully.

This woman looks only a little older than Anita, saying that her sister is not an exaggeration, but she is Anita's stepmother. In addition, Rupert Murdoch was only because of Dundeewen and his ex-wife Anna. Even when Anita's mother divorced, no wonder Anita didn't like her.

After meeting, Anita ignored Dundee at all and went straight to the door.

Deng Dewen didn't care at all.

In this home. This is not the only case for Anita, including her two older brothers, Lachlan, James, and eldest daughter Elizabeth. They simply do not admit that Dundeewen is a member of the family.

Wan Sheng nodded politely to Dundee Wen and said introductoryly, "My name is Wan Sheng. It is Anita's boyfriend."

"Hello, Wansheng, I have heard of you, but you are a celebrity in China."

"Thank you."

Wan Sheng said politely, thinking of the woman in front of her, in fact, is the real legend, because she is known as "a legendary Chinese woman".

Wan Sheng didn't know much about Dundeewen in the past, but one thing I remember: the reason for her divorce from Rupert Murdoch involved British Prime Minister Blair, that is to say. This woman may have an affair with British Prime Minister Blair.

Of course, this is a guess made by some people on the Internet, and the specific situation is unknown to anyone except the parties.

Wan Sheng just listened as a gossip.

He had no intention of participating in the financial disputes of the Murdoch family, and he was not interested in the emotional issues between Dundee Wen and her 36-year-old husband Rupert.

Now he just came to see Rupert Murdoch with Anita.

Rupert Murdoch is a legend, but the key is that he is Anita ’s father. Wan Sheng wants to marry Anita, and it is best to be blessed by Rupert.

I can see it. Rupert's spirit is not bad.

When I saw Wan Sheng and Anita walking in together, I was seeing Rupert walking slowly in the living room with the help of the maid, and he looked very energetic. Seeing Anita walk in, he came over and smiled, "Annie, you are here." He saw Wansheng on the side and looked at him, "You are Wansheng. Anne's boyfriend?"

Wan Sheng nodded. "Yes, Mr. Murdoch."

At this time, Deng Diwen was also walking in and saw that the servant was not helping Rupert. He hurried over to hold his arm and complained to the servant.

"I didn't let them hold it, and I walked more to get better," Rupert explained.

Deng Diwen immediately said, "Then pay attention! If you have something wrong, I have to worry about it!"

"Okay, okay." Rupert responded with a smile.

Anita scolded her lips in disdain and whispered, "Make a show!" Wan Sheng smiled and said nothing.

Helping Rupert to sit on the sofa, Dundeewen hurriedly ordered the servant to prepare a drink, and several people sat around the small table and chatted.

Rupert Murdoch is suffering from illness. He does n’t even know how long he can live. Perhaps the mental torture of the latter is the most critical.

His life was brilliant, but when people are old, they think of many things every time.

For example, the current wife Deng Diwen, Rupert did not say it. In fact, he also thought to himself, does this woman really love herself, or does she prefer her career and money?

Another example is the inheritance of children, he will leave a lot of property, these properties must be inherited by several children, so how to allocate property specifically?

In addition, it is his two sons who have headaches. Neither Laclan nor James are very capable people. They are not mature enough to control the entire News Corporation, that is, even if he has a son As the heir, News Corporation may also undergo major changes.

Under these thoughts, Rupert Murdoch was somewhat pessimistic.

These pessimistic thoughts also directly affected the mentality, so Wan Sheng found that Rupert Murdoch was not as strong as the outside world imagined. Instead, he was like a kind father, and he was very happy to see his daughter find his home. , And constantly asked about the situation of the two people and the like.

During this period, Rupert Murdoch also asked about the situation of the Tagore Group in Wansheng. He also said in a somewhat puzzled way, "I have always wanted to develop the Chinese market. You are better than me in this respect. But I don't understand why Will your company choose to abandon its resources in the US and move its headquarters to Hong Kong? And, it seems that most of your funds have also been transferred to China ... "

Rupert Murdoch is puzzled, and is also a part of many Tagore Group members, including Kevin Tagore.

If someone had a problem before. Wan Sheng must only say something like strategy, but now it is not necessary, he laughed, "Mr. Murdoch. Don't you know it yet?"

Rupert Murdoch was silent for a moment, then suddenly glared his eyes, surprised, "Don't you know that the US economy will have problems?"

Speaking of economic issues, Rupert Murdoch was immediately refreshed.

The US economy has always been good. But in September, what happened in the financial industry and top companies seemed to be a “crisis”, that is, there was a running crowd at Beiyan Bank. Later, because Beiyan Bank could not borrow additional funds to repay the mid-September Debt due, without continuous cash injection, the highly leveraged business it operated could not be supported, which soon led to the takeover of Beiyan Bank.

This is not a separate case.

Up to now, as many financial people have foreseen, the problems that North Rock Bank has encountered have radiated to other banks and financial institutions. Some people even started to worry about the impact of the incident, whether there will be a major storm in American finance.

Some people at the bottom may not have realized it yet, but the people at the top have already had a bad hunch. In October, various experts began to evaluate and analyze.

As the helm of News Corporation, Rupert Murdoch naturally has a lot to do with the economic problems of the United States, which directly affects the operation of News Corporation. After the North Rock Bank incident, Rupert had already foreseen the financial crisis, but he was not sure.

Hearing Wan Sheng saying this, he immediately realized something.

Simultaneously. Many other ideas have also filled the mind, for example, how to control the impact of the financial crisis on News Corp. Another example is to use the financial crisis to merge and acquire some companies? This may also be a good time for News Corporation to grow!

If Wan Sheng knows what this "prospective father-in-law" is thinking, there will be some emotions. Sure enough, it is a legend in the world. When faced with an economic crisis, the first time is not to reduce losses, but to use the economic crisis to merge with other companies ... No wonder News Corporation is expanding so fast, there are so many large companies under its banner.

After that, the two talked about what happened in the United States recently, some economic problems in the United States, and the strategy and direction of the Tagore Group in China. These topics were related to the Tagore Group, but generally Rupert Murdoch said Wan Sheng only occasionally expresses his opinions, but his opinions are beyond the perspective of a few years ago, which still makes Rupert Murdoch bright.

During this period, even Anita just listened and could not intervene at all. Although she served as the CEO of Dow Jones, in fact, most of it relied on family strength, which was not related to her own ability.

Now she also supports just doing things.

Perhaps before, Rupert Murdoch only regarded Wan Sheng as Anita ’s boyfriend, prospective fiance ~ www.novelhall.com ~ a very successful football coach, after this discussion, he has recognized Wan Sheng Ability, even after considering whether or not after Anita got married, ceded part of News Corporation ’s Asian TV industry to Tagore Wan Group, or Wansheng to operate.

He is very optimistic about this prospective son-in-law.

At the same time, thinking of the economic challenges facing the United States, Rupert Murdoch was also a lot more energetic. He suddenly felt that his energy was vigorous. He was still the CEO who could control News Corp. in one hand, not a figure. Elderly elderly man.

Rupert Murdoch is obviously quite satisfied with Wansheng.

After dinner, he sent the two to the door and said to Wan Sheng very seriously, "Annie is my daughter. I believe her ability is not weaker than her two brothers. She will take over some of my industries. I hope you can help her. In addition, I hope you can bring her happiness, can you do it? "

Rupert's undoubted tone gave a lot of pressure, but Wan Sheng looked back at his eyes and said firmly, "Please rest assured, I will definitely!"

Rupert and Wan Sheng looked at each other for a while and laughed together. (~ ^ ~)
