    Li Mingbao wanted to support Murdoch, but he did not want Murdoch or even John to be wary of him because of this support.  After all, Li Mingbao is so generous. In China, it means being courteous for nothing, either committing adultery or stealing.  Even though there are no such ancient sayings in Europe, there are many aphorisms with similar meanings.  To be honest, he really didn't care about Murdoch and John. After all, he is a Chinese. On the stage in the United States, apart from being able to make a steady stream of money, other treatment is completely different from that of white people.  A look.  Even if he invests in politicians in the future, it will not be able to change his status quo in a short time.  So for Murdoch and John, Li Mingbao really wanted to have a good relationship with them.  Maybe they will be able to help me at some point in the future.  Whether it is John¡¯s many years of connections in the United States or Murdoch¡¯s status as the uncrowned king in the news industry, Li Mingbao cannot interfere.  You can't be enemies, and you can't really stand with them. If they are on the same stage, even if they intend to cooperate, there will always be accidents of one kind or another in the end. After all, a group of wolves live in a small area and have no food.  When there is not enough, they will kill each other to gain more living space, just like what Lao Xi did during World War II.  If it weren¡¯t for the fact that everyone¡¯s interests are irreconcilable in the end, Germany would be stupid to do such a move.  Therefore, in order to avoid bad things happening, Li Mingbao directly stated where his main attack direction was.  Governance by partition is the ultimate way to solve the problem. As for the two sides peeking at each other's interests in the future, that is easy to handle. When paying more than getting back, everyone will be quite rational. This is similar to the relationship between China and the United States in the future.  The relationship is actually almost the same.  It is not in vain that Li Mingbao used money to support Murdoch and John. After all, the money borrowed will always be repaid. No matter how awesome Murdoch and the others are, they cannot directly use weapons to act rogue like the US government does, so  Li Mingbao's financial problems are relatively safe.  In this way, there is little conflict of interest between the two parties, and they have to help each other, so whether it is Li Mingbao, John, or Murdoch, in addition to hugging each other for warmth, the possibility of taking action is greatly reduced.  Sure enough, after hearing Li Mingbao speak, old foxes like Murdoch and John immediately understood the potential meaning of Li Mingbao's words, so they said in unison: "If you can really do such a thing, Mr. Li, then we  He will be the staunchest ally, and no one can interrupt our friendship. "If Li Mingbao was in the weakest position when facing Murdoch and John at the beginning, then  Now, the big bosses of the three parties are actually equal in status. It is not the kind of superficial equality, but the kind of equality that can truly become allies.  Although there is a big gap between Li Mingbao and the two of them in terms of industry, it does not mean that Li Mingbao has no advantages at all. From ancient times to the present, rich people have been uncles, especially in Western society. Rich people go to Rothschild  If the family is in such a situation, others can openly call it the Sixth Empire, an empire that is mainly based on money rather than geography.  Even now, many people understand the glory of that year.  Although Li Mingbao is not a modern Rothschild, the cash flow in his hands is enough to make many company bosses take him seriously.  A person who makes money faster than spends money will be popular wherever he goes.  After the interests and scope of functions of the three parties were determined in detail, the triangular alliance was officially established. Of course, the so-called alliance is not yet so strong. After all, Li Mingbao and Murdoch still have a relationship.  The things John discussed can only be guaranteed if everyone's situation goes well.  If one of the three parties is not that outstanding in subsequent performance, then the other two parties will never invest more energy in maintaining such a relationship.  If we really want this alliance to be stable, the first condition is that John obtains clear leadership in Twentieth Century Fox, and obtains absolute superiority in Twentieth Century Fox, instead of having the power as now.  Countless people can speak together.  Even if he can't get the people out completely, John must make all the shareholders of Twentieth Century Fox listen to him, and his tasks in the alliance must not be delayed.  The same is true for Murdoch. Although it is impossible for Murdoch to be as smooth as 20th Century Fox in News Corporation. After all, some people within News Corporation can be completely eliminated, but some people  , but they must not be moved. Those people are related to the expansion of News Corporation around the world.? Even if their own abilities are rubbish, as long as their local relationships are not broken, Murdoch will have to treat these people well. Even if they make some rude requests, in terms of profits,  It is impossible for Murdoch to take action until the cost exceeds the cost. After all, the internal problems of News Corporation are much more complicated than those of 20th Century Fox. Even if Murdoch is the leader, there are no elders.  Are people like this coming out to hold us back?  As for Murdoch, as long as he can ensure that nothing will happen within News Corporation that is not conducive to the alliance, and when necessary, provide some necessary help to the other two people in the alliance, then Murdoch will have completed his mission.  , the scope of his tasks is much easier than that of John.  Such an agreement can be reached because Murdoch is essentially more powerful than John and Li Mingbao. A powerful person will come up with some terms that are beneficial to him no matter where he is.  Finally, when it comes to Li Mingbao, he also needs to fulfill his obligations in order to get the help he needs in the alliance.  The first obligation is that Li Mingbao's money-making projects in the television industry must share a large portion of the profits to meet the requirements of John and Murdoch.  This was already clear in the conditions Li Mingbao mentioned at the beginning. Sixty percent of the shares and profits of DreamWorks Program Production Company in the entire North American market will flow into the pockets of John and Murdoch.  And Li Mingbao, the original creator, can only get 40% of the revenue in the North American market.  Of course, except for the North American market, Murdoch and John will not be able to share Li Mingbao's interests in other places. When the time comes, what kind of price can Li Mingbao negotiate with the locals? Then what will be Li Mingbao's ultimate benefit?  No one else can interfere with the price.  It seems that Li Mingbao has given away more than half of the profits, as if he is losing money. After all, even if Li Mingbao does these programs himself, he can produce them, and then he can keep the profits exclusively.  But the reality is never as simple as it seems.  John and Murdoch were able to share so much profit not because Li Mingbao gave it to them for nothing, but because there were many conditions.  For example, if John wants to get this profit, he must play the most active role in the programs produced by DreamWorks Program Production Company. As long as the programs produced by DreamWorks Company have no problems with the quality, John will  It is necessary to promote Li Mingbao's program for free, and the 20th Century Fox platform that John controls is actually his investment of 30% of the profits.  During the program production process, Li Mingbao only paid for some program production expenses, but for publicity and other expenses, Li Mingbao did not need to spend any more money.  In this way, although the 30% profit that John received seems very generous, in fact the price he paid is also not a small amount. Making money is making money, but it is not the kind of money that is free of charge.  .  To put it bluntly, he is actually equivalent to using the platform of 20th Century Fox to invest in DreamWorks Production Company. Since John has invested, it is only natural that he can get such a return, like Li Mingbao kneeling down and licking John.  Things are completely irrelevant.  For Li Mingbao, being able to have the platform of 20th Century Fox is definitely more profitable than living alone. After all, even if he works hard to build a TV station and then relies on this TV station to promote his own programs to make money,  It will take at least several years to recoup the original cost if it is a thankless effort.  Joining Twentieth Century Fox is not a concept at all. Not only can Li Mingbao save the initial investment, he can also immediately use the channels of Twentieth Century Fox to quickly expand the channels of his own program production company, and also  You don¡¯t have to pay expensive advertising fees, and you can save yourself from external pressure due to good performance of your TV station. The cost can be recovered as quickly as possible. You don¡¯t have to wait for several years to make profits, but you can earn income immediately.  Wouldn't this kind of cooperation be better than eating alone?  It's not easy for John to get 30% of the shares. Murdoch's situation is not much better either. Although his channels in the United States are not proportional to John's, John's global market position is higher than John's.  John is much taller, and News Corporation is also in the media industry. It is also widely known around the world, and its market share is quite large.  In this way, when John gets the 30% of the profit, he will have to bear the heavy responsibility of News Corporation's positive publicity and opening up links between countries.  Although these things may seem frivolous, their actual value is not much different from John's contribution. Moreover, because of the vastness of the market, to a certain extent, Murdoch's contribution is actually more.  If Li Mingbao hadn¡¯t used financial resources to seduce Murdoch, he might not have been able to win Li Mingbao¡¯s terms. In other words, Li Mingbao?? conditions, two things that must be done, are actually bundled sales, that is, Murdoch is now rapidly expanding and suffering from financial problems, so that such conditions can be achieved. If one day Murdoch  There is no shortage of money, so it makes no sense for Li Mingbao to tie it up with such terms.
