Chapter 972 Threat

If Xiao Yunhai hadn't relied on the excellent movies of his previous life, he probably wouldn't be able to make his mark now. To get where he is today is simply a fantasy.

Xiao Yunhai said: "By the way, how far is the war between the theater and the producer?"

Kerry spread his hands and said, "The theater chain is just struggling. If it wasn't for the firm attitude of Stell Networks, I'm afraid the theater chain would have surrendered long ago."

Xiao Yunhai said with a smile: "Stel's cinema is in full swing. If the box office share drops by more than 10%, it will be really depressing."

Kerry said: "I'm afraid it won't last long. Your Yanhuang Cinema will open in major cities in Europe and the United States next month. The 16,000 screens will bring a huge impact on the European and American film industry, and Their box-office share will definitely be 55:45. At that time, small and medium-sized Hollywood film companies will rush to them, and even our MGM will choose Yanhuang Film Company to show our films.”

"I heard that many Hollywood film companies have already sent representatives to contact the senior management of Yanhuang Cinemas. It is estimated that they should have signed the contract. If it wasn't for Steer's conspiracy with the government, the opening of Yanhuang was delayed under the pretext of various inspections. Time, it is estimated that it has officially opened for business now.”

Xiao Yunhai nodded and said, "Since you have to compromise sooner or later, what's the point of holding on?"

Kerry said: "That's right. But no theater chain dares to go against Steer, and everyone is waiting for him to let go."

Xiao Yunhai frowned and said, "You guys are too weak. If this continues, you will have to be annexed by Stell one by one in the future."

Kerry sighed and said: "This is the tragedy of Hollywood. Like this MGM incident, everyone knows that maybe in the near future, such a thing will happen to them too, but no one is willing to stand Come out. I heard that several major Wall Street giants have set their sights on Hollywood, and I don’t know how many movie companies will follow in Paramount’s footsteps. To be honest, I have no idea about the future of Hollywood movies. There is any hope."

Xiao Yunhai said: "Don't be too pessimistic,

Maybe it's getting better and better. "

The two chatted for a while before Xiao Yunhai went back.

His heart was also in a mess, and he didn't know whether to invest in MGM.

Who knows, just after returning to the villa, Xiao Yunhai received a strange call.

"Hey, hello, I'm Xiao Yunhai. Who are you?"

There was a somewhat familiar voice on the other end of the phone.

"Hello, Mr. Xiao, I'm Hanks, CEO of Paramount Pictures."

Xiao Yunhai was shocked, secretly saying that this guy's information is very well-informed, he came out of Kerry's office less than half an hour, and the other party came over.

"Mr. Hanks, what's the matter with you?" Xiao Yunhai asked knowingly.

Hanks said, "Mr. Xiao, did you just go to MGM?"

Xiao Yunhai smiled and said, "That's right. I'll go chat with my friend Kerry for a while. How did you know?"

Hanks said solemnly: "Mr. Xiao, I am very clear about the purpose of Mr. Smith to let you go. Frankly speaking, for MGM, we have been preparing for more than a day or two. In our Stell's territory, MGM May occupies a very important position. So I hope Mr. Xiao can take a look at Stell Networks and don't destroy it."

Xiao Yunhai said: "Mr. Hanks has been thinking too much. Even if I want to take care of it, I may not be able to take care of it."

Hanks was obviously a little unhappy when he heard Xiao Yunhai's ambiguous words, and said: "Mr. Xiao, Stell Networks can become one of the symbols of the United States, and the energy is not understandable to ordinary people. We have no intention to be an enemy of Mr. Xiao, Please also don't fight us. Because the competitors who used to be our enemies are basically no longer available."

"Is Mr. Hanks threatening me?" Xiao Yunhai flashed a cold light in his eyes, and said solemnly, "I can tell you clearly, whether to help or not depends on how much benefit MGM can bring me, and It’s not how much pressure you Stel put on me. Hmph, I, Xiao Yunhai, have never been afraid of threats. Whether it’s clear or dark, feel free to come.”

After speaking, Xiao Yunhai didn't give him any chance to speak and hung up the phone.

"What? Even a little CEO dares to threaten me. Hmph, it's really easy to be bullied by me."

On the other side of the phone, Hanks, who was sitting in the office, listened to the busy tone on the phone, and was stunned for a while, as if he didn't expect Xiao Yunhai to show him such disrespect.

Then his face became ugly, the flame of anger burned violently in his heart, his chest kept heaving and he murmured: "He dared to hang up my phone? Hehe, he dared to hang up Hanks? Does he know who I am?"

"boom."

The tens of thousands of dollars that Hanks had just replaced was smashed to the ground and torn apart.

The tall and beautiful secretary heard the voice and rushed in immediately. Seeing this situation, I couldn't help but be a little surprised.

"Who is it? Dare to be so angry with Hanks? It's too bold."

Hanks' face is hideous, and he has never been treated like this since he entered Steer's work.

On Wall Street, Hanks' character wasn't that great, not nearly as infamous, but not by much.

But such a person is still reused by Steer, not because of how strong his talent is, but because he is the illegitimate son of President Steer.

This was an open secret among the Stell executives, so no one dared to offend him. Even his boss speaks very politely.

However, Xiao Yunhai's behavior this time made Hanks feel that his dignity had been trampled on, and he was naturally furious in his heart.

The beautiful secretary took out the card from the phone, cleaned it up, and then went out to buy a phone for Hanks.

In just twenty minutes, an identical mobile phone appeared in Hanks' hands.

"Hey, Molke, I don't want to see Xiao's name on the Oscar list, understand?"

"Okay, sir, I'll do my best."

"It's not trying, but it must be done. Money is not a problem."

"Yes, as you wish."

Hanging up the phone, Hanks stood in front of the window with his hands behind his back, looking at the ants-like cars and the crowd downstairs, and snorted coldly, "Fight with me, I won't kill you."

At twelve o'clock in the evening in Los Angeles, Xiao Yunhai called Zhao Wanqing.

"Hey, wife, are the babies awake?"

Zhao Wanqing smiled and said, "I woke up a long time ago. Husband, it's late at night on your side."

Xiao Yunhai said: "That's right, I'm counting on the time to contact you, and I want to discuss with you about MGM..."

Xiao Yunhai told Zhao Wanqing about MGM Studios from beginning to end, and finally asked, "Wife, do you think we should take a stake?"

Zhao Wanqing thought for a while and said, "The 20% stake in the US$30 billion, the price Kerry offered us a lot of advantages, but whether it's worth it is another matter. I remember, MGM's total profit last year was 18 billion US dollars, most of which came from theater chains. With the emergence of two theater chains covering the entire North America, Yanhuang and Stell, MGM theaters can Whether it can withstand the pressure is still an uncertain thing. If it is crushed by them, then we will really lose a lot. So my suggestion is not to buy.”

Xiao Yunhai said: "You think about the same as I do. It's just that Kerry is my good friend. Seeing him like that now, I really can't bear it."

Zhao Wanqing smiled and said: "If you want to help him, you don't have to be a shareholder of MGM. Although this is the most effective way, it is not the only way. For the problem of bank arrears, you can serve as their guarantee. People have lent enough funds to Huaxia Commercial Bank to repay. As for MGM's stock price plummeting, you can directly hold a press conference and tell the media that your Magic, Fantasy, and Marvel Comics will launch a partnership with MGM. All-round cooperation. With your current position in the business world, MGM's stock price will definitely rise rapidly."

Xiao Yunhai heard Zhao Wanqing's words and said with admiration, "Wife, you are simply a business genius. These remarks make me look at you with admiration."

Zhao Wanqing smiled and said, "Where? Anyone with a little business knowledge can think of it."

Xiao Yunhai was suddenly speechless, and said, "Wife, what you said is too hurtful, at least save me some face."

Zhao Wanqing said: "You have a vision, but you just don't know how to run a business. I think you should hire a professional team to take care of your financial problems."

Xiao Yunhai thought for a while, and said, "Alright. It's really a pity to put so much money in the bank for interest. I'll go to Wall Street tomorrow to see if there are any reliable financial management experts."

Zhao Wanqing chuckled and said, "Husband, how do you know if they are reliable? Even if he is a person with a ghost, can you tell it from his face?"

Xiao Yunhai asked, "What should we do then?"

Zhao Wanqing said: "Fool. Of course, I asked someone who is very familiar with Wall Street. Think about it, among our good friends, who has worked on Wall Street?"

Xiao Yunhai suddenly realized, and said: "You are talking about Man Wenbin. Yes, looking at my brain, why didn't I think of Brother Wenbin. He has been on Wall Street for so many years, and he doesn't know anything or anyone. Just call him."

At this time, Xiao Yunhai heard the child's cry from the phone.

Zhao Wanqing hurriedly said: "Okay, I won't talk to you anymore, the child is going to breastfeed."

Xiao Yunhai said: "Then you go quickly."
