MTL - Back To 1995-Chapter 996 Wealth touches people's hearts

  Chapter 996 Money touches people's hearts

  Song Yang acquired Time Warner, almost occupying half of Hollywood, and as the official empress on the bright side, Jenny almost became the wife of the head of Western Films, Warner Pictures, and Universal Pictures in name!

Their identities are completely different from those Hollywood actresses who need to rob resources. Even the top Hollywood actresses, when they meet Jenny now, no matter whether they want Jenny or not, at least they have to compliment her. After all In Hollywood, who dares to say that he will not cooperate with these three Hollywood giants for the rest of his life.

   Even, maybe as long as there is a dispute with Jenny, the executives of Western Pictures and Warner Pictures will probably block the actress!

  Hollywood lacks everything, except for actors. Whether it is a male star or a female star, box office appeal does exist, but Hollywood giants can also "create gods". The difference is whether they are willing to spend money.

  Looking at the flattering looks of all the young Hollywood stars around her, Jenny's dissatisfaction with the Monica she just saw on TV dissipated a lot.

   "Sorry for being late, I was just talking about the script with Ted Sarando, the president of Western Films, and I wasted some time!"

  Jenny said "casually", which attracted the envy and envy of all the Hollywood actresses around. Ted Sarando is now the most powerful figure in Hollywood. No matter how many people want to meet, they have no chance.

  Now she is accompanying Jenny to choose the script herself. It is conceivable that Jenny's new movie will definitely not be a trivial one, but it may be another big production.

Sicily's Beautiful Legend did so well at the box office, but it made Monica Bellucci out of the circle. Jenny is not envious of Monica, but seeing that Monica might win an Oscar, Jenny Ni naturally also wanted to act in a blockbuster movie, not to compete for anything, but to tell other people who is the empress in the palace.

In New York, after Song Yang received a call from Ted Sarando, he just smiled and said to Ted Sarando, "You let Western Films choose or build a new one for Jenny. The script and the investment cost of the new film will be borne by the North American Global Investment Foundation!"

   After hanging up the phone, Song Yang saw Irene who was sorting out the documents, and gave him a supercilious look.

  "The media are all rumoring that Mr. Bruno Song spent countless dollars to enter Hollywood just to make that silly girl who came to Houston smile. It seems to be true. By the way, a woman from the Italian peninsula is also added..."

  Listening to Irene's words, Song Yang shook his head, "Don't forget, the biggest beneficiary of the establishment of Western Pictures, the acquisition of Universal Pictures and Warner Pictures, is you, the head of ICQ!

   As for the money that Jenny invested in the movie..."

  If a movie can be used to block Jenny's jealous jar, even if the movie loses money at the box office, Song Yang will feel it is a good deal.

Hearing Song Yang's words, Irene just snorted. Song Yang's words were half-truths and half-truths. For the sake of ICQ's truth, the acquisition of Universal, Time Warner, and Comcast Television Network made ICQ It has become the largest media group in America, and will launch online video platforms such as Youtube in the future.

But if you say that you have no selfishness at all, Irene will definitely not believe it. I don’t mention Jenny and that Monica. Irene also knows that Mexican girl Elsa Benitez, and Song Yang has a lot of them. Put in resources!

"I think it's better for you to draw up your will earlier. I don't want to wait until the future, when a bunch of illegitimate children will come to your door and fight for an inheritance lawsuit. I think at that time, the whole of America will be interested in watching a battle for inheritance." The illegitimate son of the wealthy family fights..."

  Irene picked up the file and was about to get up to attend the first AOL Time Warner meeting, she said to Song Yang with a slightly teasing look.

  Although Irene's words were meant to be ridiculed, they were also mixed with a little seriousness. It is not uncommon to make a will in advance in America. This does not mean that it is ominous, but to avoid tragedy.

  Don't talk about those wealthy families who tore up their inheritance for inheritance, but look at those Hollywood stars. After passing away suddenly, if there is no will left, the remaining family property is enough for family members and agents to argue for many years.

It is even more special when it comes to Song Yang. The entire Bruno family started suddenly. In a few years, they have a huge family fortune, but the foundation is too shallow and fragile. It can be said that the Bruno family, North American Global Investment The foundation, etc., are all tied to Song Yang. If something happens to Song Yang, let alone leaving a will, even if there is a will, the entire Bruno family will probably start to fall into a battle for inheritance. I don’t know how many people will Jump out to fish in troubled waters.

  As for the North American Global Investment Fund, I am afraid that it is also facing disintegration, and the group of professional managers who seem to be obedient now may also jump back immediately...

Until Irene left for a while, Song Yang was still sitting there, exhaling a long breath. Song Yang felt that he should make some preparations. Of course, the most direct way is to get married as soon as possible, as long as he has a child, Then the Bruno family and the North American Global Investment Foundation will be able to stabilize. Even if there is an accident, everything in the North American Global Investment Foundation will not be washed away!

  Today is the first board meeting after the acquisition of AOL Time Warner. After today, the term AOL Time Warner will basically disappear, and the entire Time Warner will also usher in a huge change!

   After Song Yang entered the meeting room, he waved his hand casually, signaling Irene to start the meeting. Greg, Marcus and others could clearly feel that Song Yang seemed to be in a bad mood.

After the acquisition of Time Warner and the use of the golden parachute plan, the executives of the entire AOL Time Warner were packaged and sent away. Jerry Levine has also stepped down as the president of Time Warner. Now he is helping ICQ as a consultant Receive the entirety of Time Warner.

  As for Richard Parsons and other Time Warners, after receiving a huge compensation of more than tens of millions of dollars, they chose to leave.

  Now the entire Time Warner is like a blank sheet of paper, allowing ICQ to scribble on it, and it depends on ICQ's ability to draw anything.

   "Starting tomorrow, AOL is officially spun off from Time Warner, AOL Time Warner Associates, will disappear forever!"

As soon as Irene opened her mouth, Jerry Levine and Ted Turner who came to the meeting were refreshed. The vice president of CNN TV, the director of TNT TV, and the president of Time Magazine and Warner Pictures attended the meeting. The executives of the industry, the president of Warner Music, and other executives were all sitting there listening to Irene's handling of their departments. Everyone knew that today would definitely usher in great changes.

   "It should have been like this a long time ago. The AOL brand is the most disgusting brand I have ever seen!"

   Ted Turner greatly appreciated Irene's decision. He had long wanted to split the AOL logo from the Time Warner brand.

   "Time Warner will restore the previous brand and exist as an independent brand under ICQ, but Time Warner needs to make changes!"

   Without waiting for the people below to speak, Irene said directly, "After the split of AOL, the dial-up Internet business will be sold to America Telecom, and AIM instant messaging, Mapquest map website, Netscape browser, etc. will all be owned by ICQ!

In addition, Warner Music will be sold to Saipan Music Store, Warner Pictures and DC Comics will be sold to Western Films, HBO, CNN TV, TBS TV, TNT TV, WB TV Network will cooperate with ICNC, NBC, Comcast TV network, forming a new big media group..."

Listening to Irene's words, Jerry Levin, who was sitting below, had a complex expression on his face. Irene almost cut the entire Time Warner into pieces. He and the previous Time Warner presidents worked so hard to save All of his property has now been sold.

The Time Warner brand is indeed still there. In the future, DC Comics, Warner Records, TNT Sports Channel, HBO TV, etc. can still see the traces of Time Warner, but it is no longer there. ICQ has completely swallowed Time Warner down.

  The heads of Time Warner's various departments sitting below heard Irene's few words, selling them all like selling piglets, and they felt mixed feelings for a while.

But now, it’s impossible to resist. It’s a done deal. Time Warner already belongs to ICQ, and the leaders of Time Warner, Richard Parsons and others, have also left, and now they are powerless. Resisting the knife cut by ICQ, anyone who dares to jump out and object will immediately pack up and leave. Looking at the murderous Irene, everyone knows that Irene, who is in urgent need of Yu Liwei, will never be soft-hearted.

  Hearing Irene's splitting of AOL Time Warner, the entire conference room was silent. At this moment, Song Yang tapped the table with his finger.

   "I don't care about the relationship between AOL and Time Warner before, how they cooperated, and I don't want to know!"

  Song Yang looked around at a large group of executives in the conference room, "ICQ will formulate a new management system, and all departments and personnel must operate according to this system. I don't want any accidents to happen!

  If everything goes well with the merger, by the end of this year, ICQ will assess and raise the salaries of all department executives, and will also reward some executives with equity rewards! "

   If you slap a sweet jujube with a slap in the face, and don’t give carrots to serve with a big stick, it may not be convincing.

  Song Yang asked these Time Warner executives to cooperate with the merger of ICQ. It is definitely impossible to talk empty words. If you want the horse to run fast, you must feed it!

  After hearing that Song Yang was going to issue equity rewards, a group of executives who had been sullen before couldn't help showing joy on their faces.

  They didn’t catch up with the equity rewards for all employees before ICQ’s listing that made people rich overnight. Now they want to get ICQ equity rewards, so they can only wait slowly and wait for an opportunity that I don’t know if there is still one.

And now, Song Yang has drawn a big cake for them. As long as they cooperate with ICQ headquarters and their performance reaches the standard, they can get a new round of equity rewards from ICQ. The ex-ICQ executives who lived a life of luxury and wealth and achieved freedom of wealth, and the people from Time Warner in the conference room couldn't help but feel a little moved.

   "AOL Time Warner Associates is being split up and the AOL brand will cease to exist!"

   "The marriage of the century ended with a huge loss. Since the merger of AOL Time Warner, the loss has exceeded 150 billion dollars..."

   "America Telecom took over AOL's dial-up Internet service and announced that it will provide broadband services to more than 20 million AOL users. President Eiger announced that AOL users will be allowed to transform their broadband services and join the free Internet community plan of AOL!"

   "Western Films and ICQ have reached a deal to take over DC Comics and Warner Pictures, and the largest film group in Hollywood was born!"

  Todd, the president of Microsoft's public relations department who just came out of the San Jose airport, flipped through the newspaper in his hand. He needed to know the latest news about ICQ.

   "ICQ is really too fast!"

   After looking at the news for a few moments, Todd couldn't help but said to Greg Maffei, Microsoft's chief financial officer.

ICQ doesn't pay much attention to food at all. After getting it, it immediately dismantled Time Warner, and then transferred all the businesses of AOL and Time Warner to Western Pictures and American Telecom. , without covering it up.

   "Where's the Netscape browser?!" Greg Maffei asked. What he cared most about was the Netscape browser, which was also the purpose of their visit this time.

  Todd rummaged through several technology newspapers, and finally found news related to Netscape in a corner, with only a few sentences mentioned.

   "Netscape browser merged into ICQ product camp!"

  Todd put down the newspaper in his hand and rubbed his swollen head, "The problem now is that no one knows what Song is thinking, whether to restart Netscape browser, or to freeze it!"

   "I haven't received the news that ICQ is going to enter the browser industry..."

   "If you haven't received the message, does that mean Song won't let ICQ do it?!"

Greg Maffei's words were interrupted by Todd, and the two looked at each other. Greg Maffei finally shook his head slowly. He didn't dare to bet whether Song Yang was really planning to play in the browser industry. One, if he loses the bet, he can't afford the consequences.

   "I hope this trip won't be too troublesome. I just hope that Microsoft's board of directors will be able to authorize you to get a dollar..."

Greg Maffey said helplessly that since Microsoft acquired the Hotmail mailbox, every time he met with Song Yang, he almost had to pay a large sum of money, without exception, this time he didn't know if he would cut it again Get out a big piece of meat.

Todd and Greg Maffei will soon come to Song Yang's villa in San Jose. If they come a little later, maybe they can enter the mansion of the same level as Bill Gates in Seattle to see some.

  As soon as they walked in, Todd and Greg Maffei heard an annoying but familiar voice from a distance, which made them both stop.

   Todd was so familiar with this voice that it almost became a nightmare, "It's Jim Clark!"
