In the past, Li Mingbao might have had the idea of ??making money by being friendly. After all, he ate a lot here in the United States, and he would always meet some people who were engaged in illegal activities. People like killers are all too common. Although Li Mingbao's own strength is not bad, after receiving funds, he began to expand his armed forces on a large scale. Even though heavy weapons cannot be used in Hong Kong, ordinary light weapons are still available in Li Mingbao's security company. There are many, and these weapons are all licensed. They are completely different from the black weapons on the road. Li Mingbao can take out these things openly, but most of the things on the road can only be obtained in private. . Naturally, Li Mingbao would not be satisfied with only light weapons, so at the beginning of the year, he teamed up with his uncle Liu to obtain a batch of heavy weapons in Malaysia. Although these weapons could only be used in Malaysia, they were not allowed to use them. He didn't have to go anywhere else, but as long as the people under his command were familiar with using these weapons, it would not be impossible for Li Mingbao to spend a lot of money to get these things elsewhere if necessary. As for weapons, it is very difficult for ordinary people to obtain them. Even for people on the road, it may not be a big problem to obtain light weapons, but heavy weapons are more troublesome. But for people like Li Mingbao and others, even if they really want to get heavy weapons, they have to pay a sufficient price. The Pentagon in the United States offers free shipping worldwide, so it is not a problem at all. Except for some special places, American weapons ships can be put in place. If you are willing to spend money, the United States will serve you wholeheartedly. In fact, this kind of business is not only done in the United States. Among the five gangsters, there is no one who does not do this kind of business. The difference is that some countries do more, and some countries do more It has done little, and the United States occupies a large say. In addition, its sphere of influence is connected to Europe, so its weapons, through formal channels, will be more confident than the current Soviet Union and future Russia. . Since the Soviet Union's channels are not very good, it is more difficult for their weapons to go through formal channels. This has also created an image that Soviet weapons are inferior to American weapons in terms of reputation. Of course, Li Mingbao is actually not involved in this aspect of things. These things are now mostly done by the third brother and the fourth brother, and Li Mingbao just provides the funds. But even if there is such a channel, Li Mingbao has never thought of exposing his wealth in the United States before, because he can do this, and other established consortiums can also do the same. Li Mingbao's involvement in these things can be regarded as nothing at most. He is a novice, so he is much worse than them. Li Mingbao doesn't want to show off unless necessary, and he might suffer a loss when the time comes. But now that he has connected with a local snake like John, and has a close relationship with a man like Murdoch who can enjoy the world, Li Mingbao is no longer afraid of some things that he was scrupulous about before, but he seems to be much more generous. At this time, what Li Mingbao needs is not to continue to act like a pig, but to build his reputation as soon as possible, in line with his current status. After this PwC audit of the capital in the United States, Li Mingbao discovered that he was not too short of money. On the contrary, the companies he now owned were more valuable than he had previously estimated. ¡°I originally thought that it would be difficult for industries in the United States to withdraw US$150 million in funds at once, and it might also affect the company¡¯s construction. But because of his previous commitment, Li Mingbao accepted it even if there was some loss. But he didn't expect that after the total capital was calculated, Li Mingbao discovered that he was not short of money. On the contrary, the profit exceeded his estimate. Even if he drew out so much money at once, he would not have any impact on his industry. Impact, even if DreamWorks Film Company invests heavily again, Li Mingbao will definitely be able to sustain it in one or two years. As long as the TV program company makes no mistakes, I believe that next year, Li Mingbao¡¯s cash will once again When a blowout occurs, what Li Mingbao needs to consider at that time is not the issue of insufficient cash, but where he can put his cash for consumption. Li Mingbao is very clear about the direction of the U.S. dollar in the next few years. If he keeps the U.S. dollars in the bank, even if he can earn a lot of interest, in fact, Li Mingbao will still lose money on this money. Those interest rates are far higher than the actual value of currency depreciation. If you keep saving US dollars, it will definitely be a loss-making business. So after Li Mingbao heard the report, he made up his mind that in the future, funds from the United States need to be gradually mobilized. He does not have to make his own capital chain very tight like other companies, so that others can support it. Live, but Li Mingbao may not be able to. After all, so many industries under Li Mingbao are too tempting. If he also learns thoseIf the Chinese pursue a high-debt development model, they may run into big trouble at some point. Being cut off from one's own funds, and then having to spit out one's property, such a loss is much greater than the small amount of money earned. Even Murdoch and others may not be so relieved to see so many high-quality companies in their hands. Therefore, Li Mingbao can only play the currency exchange game at most, and will not involve more financial extension industries. In order to maintain his capital strength, he cannot really give up all risks to John and others. Murdoch goes to fight, that would be too dangerous. Understanding that his family has plenty of funds, Li Mingbao finally said to Mary on the other end of the phone: "Since we have plenty of cash on hand, DreamWorks Film Company can speed up the pace appropriately in the second half of the year. , without affecting normal business, release more new movies and continue to invest the funds in movies as much as possible without always maintaining a high cash flow. Of course, it is best for these movies. It will be done before the end of this year. I will recover more than half of the investment by April next year. I may have other uses for the funds by then, but there is a premise, that is, I must maintain the good reputation of DreamWorks TV Program Production Company. The funds there are stable, and the capital needs there must not exceed the warning line. You also know that the career development there will definitely be much faster than that of DreamWorks Film Company, and their ability to attract money is also not a dream. Factory Film Company can be compared. If there is insufficient funds there, the quality of the programs will decline, or if the leadership of some programs is given up, it will be a real loss-making business, so I hope you must take good care of it. Go ahead, even if there is any pressure from Murdoch and John that you can't bear, it's best for you to come to me instead of facing them alone. What do I mean, do you understand? " "I understand boss. I know how important DreamWorks Television Production Company is, so I will definitely be optimistic about the work there. If necessary, I don't mind trying to scare the monkeys. If they are dishonest, I have plenty of ways to deal with them. "Mary assured on the other end of the phone. "As long as you understand, as long as it is beneficial to me, the boss, no matter how big a problem you make, I, the boss, will still bear it for you. I am not the boss you were before, and he can't afford it. As a boss, I can bear the responsibility, so you can do it boldly." In the end, Li Mingbao made this promise to Mary. It¡¯s not that Li Mingbao and Mary are making a fuss. Both Li Mingbao and Mary understand that among all Li Mingbao¡¯s industries, the most profitable industry may be in the future, but at least for now, it will definitely be DreamWorks Program Production Company. Although this company When we really want to exert our efforts, we have to wait until at least next year, but after all, it is not too far away from next year in 2085, and there are only a few months in total, so the current dream of being the first profitable Factory Pictures, they don¡¯t care that much now. To put it more deeply, Li Mingbao and the others would rather DreamWorks Pictures be shut down than DreamWorks Television Production Company be shut down. . With that kind of loss, even a few more DreamWorks movies won't be enough. No matter which TV station they are in, their profitability will definitely not be comparable to that of movies for at least thirty years. The influence of TV stations is much greater than that of movies. Otherwise, in the 1970s, Uncle Six would not have turned his focus to the TV station, and his suppression of Zou Wenhuai was only kept within a certain limit, and he did not really devote himself to killing Zou Wenhuai. If not for this, Zou Wenhuai may not be able to laugh until the 1980s. After all, the initial gap between them was really too big. Even though Zou Wenhuai had other members of the Shao family supporting him, the abilities of the other members of the Shao family were not that impressive compared to his sixth uncle. Zou Wenhuai is like this, and the same is true for these giant companies in Hollywood. Although from the outside world, the one-time money earned by movies is not comparable to the profits of TV stations. But people who really understand this industry understand that when movies suffer losses, it is not easy for TV stations to lose money as long as their programs are not outrageous. Especially for those TV stations that have reached a certain scale, their income is It may not be much worse than the movie circle, but this circle is more closed than the film circle, and it is difficult for ordinary people to understand the situation inside, so many people from the outside world think that the best people in the entertainment circle , who is from the film industry. This is definitely a fallacy. Maybe people in the middle and low-level film circles do better than people in the television circle, but those in the television circle who really hold power are better off than people in the film circle at the same level. Inside the TV CirclePeople definitely have more advantages. The profit of a popular TV show is even more terrifying than that of a popular movie. Time alone can erase all the advantages of the movie.
