    Li Mingbao knows that if there is a negotiation, the final result will definitely develop in a positive direction, and it is not impossible to gain tens of millions of dollars in benefits by then.  But that would waste a lot of time, and it would not be impossible for it to become a protracted and protracted battle.  " Sustainability is a problem for 20th Century Fox, and it is also a problem for Li Mingbao.  Because durability means long time, and when time goes by, accidents will naturally happen.  Not all American companies follow the rules like 20th Century Fox. There are actually many film companies in the United States that do not follow the rules.  It¡¯s not surprising that those companies want to do anything for profit.  ??Especially for a young newcomer like Li Mingbao, who has little power in the United States and involves hundreds of millions of dollars in interests, most people cannot refuse.  Under such circumstances, if Li Mingbao stays in the United States for one more day, he will be in greater danger.  You must know that the United States is not Hong Kong. It is legal to hold guns here. The President of the United States has been shot many times, let alone a little shrimp like him.  Therefore, for his own safety and to continue happy cooperation with 20th Century Fox, it is inevitable for Li Mingbao to give up profits.  If you sell Twentieth Century Fox now, you will definitely be well taken care of in the future.  With tens of millions of dollars in profits, 20th Century Fox will not pretend not to see it.  In this way, it seems that Li Mingbao has lost a lot, but in fact, Li Mingbao has saved his time to enter the US market to a negligible amount.  For Li Mingbao, having time means unlimited possibilities.  Although the profits of tens of millions of dollars are large, Li Mingbao's two more movies will be enough to make up for the losses.  The sooner it develops in the United States, the better it will be for Li Mingbao's background. Development in 1980 will definitely have more advantages than development in 1985.  So no matter what, it is a good idea for Li Mingbao to give up these uncertain interests and get the long-term support of 20th Century Fox. For the sake of tens of millions of benefits, he puts other risks on himself, which Li Mingbao cannot do yet.  Such a fool.  Hearing Li Mingbao¡¯s final offer, both John and Justin breathed a long sigh of relief.  In their calculations, such a quotation was undoubtedly intended to be low. In fact, even if it was a quotation of US$300 million, they did not think it was too much.  But Li Mingbao took the initiative to lower the price to US$200 million, which indeed exceeded their expectations.  They know that Li Mingbao is not a fool, on the contrary, he is very smart, so what Li Mingbao did was to use money to buy their friendship with Twentieth Century Fox.  For Westerners, there is nothing that is not suitable for trading. For things like friendship, in the context of tens of millions or hundreds of millions of dollars, trading is definitely a profitable business.  So in order to avoid long nights and long dreams, John said directly: "Okay, two hundred million dollars, let's make the deal. Congratulations to Mr. Li on your long-term friendship with Twentieth Century Fox. I believe this deal will get the results Mr. Li wants.  ." As for negotiating the price on the basis of 200 million US dollars, John did not mention it again.  Because this price is almost the lowest price.  If you don't want to accept it, there are a lot of companies out there that will be happy to accept such a price.  At least those old rivals would never be stingy with such a deal.  Li Mingbao made it clear that he wanted to exchange money for friendship. If John even wanted to eat up the lowest price, this kind of friendship would definitely not be reliable.  John is also a smart man, so he decided to close the deal immediately, which made both parties feel happy.  So a big deal involving US$200 million was completed in less than an hour of negotiation.  This kind of transaction speed can basically refresh the transaction record in the United States, and you can definitely open the champagne to celebrate.  Of course, neither Li Mingbao nor John are in the mood to open champagne now.  They are preparing contract documents.  Because the idea of ????dealing with Li Mingbao has long been considered, there is no shortage of lawyers and contracts in 20th Century Fox at this time.  After both parties confirmed the authenticity of the contract and that there were no legal loopholes, both Li Mingbao and John signed their names.  This also means that from this moment on, Li Mingbao no longer has ownership of the movie "Home Alone" because his ownership has been transferred to 20th Century Fox.  Seeing that the contract has been signed, John's mood became happy: "Mr. Li, maybe you have broken a world record. I wonder if you are interested in registering it with Guinness?" Hearing John's words, Li Mingbao  I feel inexplicable: "What world record? When did I break the world record? How come I didn't know?" "This record is the world record for the fastest time to become a billionaire. I can't think of anyone else who can surpass it.  your memory??.  In half a year, Mr. Li, you have overcome the bottleneck of assets ranging from tens of millions to hundreds of millions.  And it was accomplished through your own efforts, so the owner of this Guinness record must be you, Mr. Li.  "John said half jokingly, half seriously. After hearing John's words, Li Mingbao understood what he relied on to break the Guinness record. But for this record, Li Mingbao took it very lightly, because Guinness records, this record  It¡¯s just a bullshit. It¡¯s absolutely impossible for him to break a record like his. If he really wanted to pull all the crocodiles hiding under the water to show off, Li Mingbao would immediately hide in the corner and draw circles.  Not to mention those big crocodiles, if anyone really wants to break this record, then go to the Golden Triangle, or Colombia, and get a machine to make drugs, and you can become a billionaire in one day. Of course, such a rich man will eventually be killed.  Whether it's because he's been cheated or he's disappeared from the world, or because he can't sell the goods in his own hands, these issues are not something Li Mingbao needs to consider. "Forget it, John, such a record.  What's the point? Making a fortune in a low profile is the real thing. How many good endings can there be for people who stand under the spotlight?  The President of the United States is so awesome. Isn¡¯t he also a high-risk occupation on the professional ranking list?  So let those celebrities take care of the scenery and stuff!  For people like us, it's better to hide aside and count money quietly.  "Li Mingbao patted John on the shoulder and said. Hearing Li Mingbao's words, John also smiled: "It seems that you still have a lot of experience in how to be a boss, so I feel relieved.  I know that what you young people like most is to be under the spotlight. This is how Hollywood stars come to be.  Originally, I thought you would like this kind of life to some extent, but I didn't expect that your thoughts are similar to those of old men like us.  It seems that I will introduce more people to you in the future so that you can understand what our American society is like.  Presumably those old guys will also be interested in you.  It¡¯s no wonder that at your age, everyone else is a star, but you are the boss of a star.  Because your heart is different from theirs.  " John's words can be regarded as an unexpected gain from Li Mingbao's goodwill. You must know that it is difficult and very simple to integrate into the upper class society in the United States. The difficulty is that if you don't have an introducer, then you may have to work hard for most of your life to get into this circle.  . But when it comes to simplicity, it is simple. When your career is just starting, you have a good introducer, so that you can truly integrate into this circle, and an old guy like John controls 20th Century Fox.  The boss, his introduction is absolutely valuable to a newcomer like Li Mingbao. If Li Mingbao had not made a huge profit this time, John would never have made such a choice. Although introducing someone is not a burden for John himself, but  Under normal circumstances, people like them rarely introduce people from outside, because if everyone does not take the introduction seriously, then their small circle will become a public place, which is not good for them.  For a group of people hiding behind the scenes, it is a disaster. "Thank you, Mr. John, for your support. We will have a broader space for cooperation in the future. I believe we will all have a great time in the future."  "Li Mingbao thanked him with a smile. Seeing that Li Mingbao understood what he meant, John also smiled. He was afraid that Li Mingbao didn't understand what he meant, and then his thoughts were revealed to the monkey. But he didn't expect that.  Li Mingbao is not a native of the United States and understands some of the rules of the United States. Such a person is indeed worthy of his recommendation. If Li Mingbao did not understand the meaning of his words at that time, then John would definitely not mention this matter again unless there is something wrong.  A suitable opportunity. For people like John, opportunity and luck are the keys to success. Li Mingbao's luck is undoubtedly very good, but whether Li Mingbao can seize the opportunity only depends on himself.  Come on, it's obvious that Li Mingbao did seize the opportunity. "By the way, Li, I have something very important to tell you. I hope you can be prepared. It's about our US tax rate.  "After John tested Li Mingbao, he suddenly said such a sentence. After hearing John's words, Li Mingbao was not a fool. He immediately understood what John meant, so Li Mingbao, who understood how terrifying the American tax rate was, immediately became unhappy.  No, no, no, Li Mingbao should not forget the damn tax rate in the United States. This is definitely a life-threatening issue. ¡°Oh, damn, I forgot such an important thing.  I need John to remind you, otherwise I will suffer a big loss.  "Li Mingbao said happily. No wonder Li Mingbao forgot, the tax rate in Hong Kong is not terrible, especially when taking advantage of loopholes, the tax rate for profits from making movies is basically negligible.But the U.S. is different. If the taxes here are not prepared, it will definitely lead to bloodshed. Li Mingbao received 200 million US dollars here, so if the taxes are paid in full, the money received will not even be 150 million US dollars.  .
