Dealing with these film industry bosses in East Asia is not a troublesome matter for Li Mingbao. But now Li Mingbao is really encountering a troublesome thing. He suddenly realized that his money seemed to be a bit insufficient. Of course, this is not small money. Li Mingbao is not short of money. At least in Hong Kong, Li Mingbao will not be short of money at all. Not to mention his cash ability, just the money he can borrow from the bank is not a small amount. The amount, as long as Li Mingbao dared to speak, the top banks in Hong Kong would be willing to send the money to him, and they would use the fast track. But Li Mingbao¡¯s industries are not only in East Asia. He also has many industries in the United States. Moreover, his properties in the United States were still cash cows, but even so, Li Mingbao found that he seemed to be in a money shortage. I only came to understand this money shortage after being reminded by others. Li Mingbao was not too surprised when he received a call from John. After all, with his current relationship with John, communication was inevitable no matter where he was on weekdays. Even during that period of time in the mainland, Li Mingbao often made phone calls to outsiders. . But this time John called, not simply because he wanted to chat with Li Mingbao about girls, but because he wanted money from Li Mingbao. "John, are you saying that you want 100 million US dollars now? And Murdoch also needs 50 million US dollars? Is this a big deal? I will get it for you later, between us Isn't the relationship maintained by cash? I understand all these things," Li Mingbao said to John on the other end of the phone. "It's good that you understand. I knew before that you were busy with things on the mainland and East Asia, so we didn't rush you. We also know what your layout is. But now we need money. It's really The money will be spent immediately. At Twentieth Century Fox, I have contacted a shareholder who wants to sell a lot of his shares. It is not that easy to buy his shares, especially Our current performance of Twentieth Century Fox is very good. Even if it is the cost price, it is not a small amount. If I want that old guy to obediently give me the shares, I must pay a premium, although I also know that even if it is. The current cost price is a bit high for Twentieth Century Fox's shares, but there is no way. Performance affects the shares. If Twentieth Century Fox's performance was not so good, I don't think Murdoch would agree with him. I cooperate. As the saying goes, this acquisition will cost a lot of money, and if the money is borrowed from the bank, the interest will be considerable. And you also said before that it is necessary. At that time, you could provide financing to me and Murdoch, and the bottom line was $300 million. Now I need this financing, and I just want to know whether you have the money on hand to pay for it. ?" John said to Li Mingbao on the other end of the phone. "Of course, it's just 300 million US dollars, no big deal. I don't have much else, but when it comes to cash, some small and medium-sized banks may not have as much cash as I do." Li Mingbao On the other end of the phone, she patted her chest and said in assurance. The relationship between him, John and Murdoch was all maintained by profit, and John's visit this time was something that had been planned before, so Li Mingbao couldn't refuse at all. "I know you have a lot of cash, but I also know that your current investment is also not a small amount. The celebrity system you recently created in East Asia does not require any money, or even any effort from you. , you just need a name. Many of us in Hollywood are very concerned about your genius idea. After all, if your celebrity system is really perfect, it can also be transplanted to Hollywood. Come, we want to be a huge influencer in the industry. Everyone likes it. But I know that you have invested billions of dollars in mainland China. It¡¯s not a one-time payment, but the funds needed there are also huge. I know that is your business, so there is no reason to object, but I hope that while completing your own business, you will also pay us Leave enough space for the necessary funds, so that we can achieve a win-win situation for all three parties. But I heard that all the funds you have in Hong Kong are put on the mainland, so you can now move them. How much cash do you have? Of course, I also know that your profits in the United States are also not a small amount. Whether it is DreamWorks Film Company or DreamWorks TV Program Production Company, which has recently become famous in the North American market, its profitability is They all want it to be considerable. But after all, the cash that DreamWorks Film Company has to maintain the development of DreamWorks is not much, at most it is less than 200 million US dollars.?It can temporarily solve the troubles that Murdoch and I have, but it is only a temporary solution. If we make bigger moves in the future, including the adjustment of shareholders within Murdoch's News Corporation, how much money will be needed? , although it will be less than your investment in the mainland, it is not much less. That amount of money is not a small amount. Based on the profitability of your current industry, take out this money and use it for your investment in the mainland. Investment, your capital chain is a bit tight. As your good friend in the United States, I have to give you a kind advice. For ordinary people, tight capital chains are not a big deal. Even for me, tight capital chains are not a big deal. As long as I dare to ask for financing channels, many banks in the United States will be happy to give me a loan. Murdoch's financing channels should not be underestimated either. His strength in the UK is deep, so there will be no trouble. The key problem is on your side. Although all the companies in your hands are very profitable, and there is no shortage of cash and other things for the time being. But after all, your development time is really too short. The bankers here in the United States are not easy to talk to. You haven¡¯t had much contact with them before. When you really need to use them, you will understand how vicious those bankers are. If you ask them for help, they will There are ways to slowly turn the property in your hands into theirs. You must believe that the gang of villains on Wall Street are as good as arms dealers in terms of methods. In the capital field, they are just a bunch of arms dealers. They will open their huge mouths when you are at your weakest, eat all your flesh, drink all your blood, and finally chew up all your bones. So I hope that you here in the United States can avoid borrowing from banks, and try not to borrow from banks, because those gangsters are not good people. There are countless movie companies in Hollywood that have suffered losses from them. I don¡¯t want someone with potential like you to also suffer losses at their hands. "John said to Li Mingbao very solemnly. "John's words are not a threat. The bankers on Wall Street dare to steal the country's money. For the sake of profit, they overthrow the regimes of some small countries. For them, , is not a rare thing, so no matter how overestimated their ability is, after all, the most powerful character among the group has the right to issue the US dollar in his own hands, and let the whole world pay for them. Small people like Li Mingbao will be cheated, and they will not have any psychological burden at all. Generally speaking, John's words are definitely good for Li Mingbao, despite the fact that many companies have no money. The first thing that comes to mind is the bank, but in fact, anyone who interacts with the bank will not be too happy, unless you are depositing a large amount of money in the bank, as long as it involves loans and investments If something like this happens, then the bank is definitely not a place where good people should stay. So from this perspective, John is also doing it for Li Mingbao's benefit. There is nothing that the bankers in the United States dare not do, as long as it is for profit. Enough, it is not difficult for them to change the president of the United States. But when John said this, it was not because he was really that good to Li Mingbao. In fact, it was for John's own benefit. , Li Mingbao can be said to be the weakest person in the industry, but because Li Mingbao has abundant cash flow, to a certain extent, he can form an advantage over Murdoch and John, and this advantage can also bring John and the others. Actual benefits. Although John¡¯s cash flow is not as abundant as that of Li Mingbao, he is a local leader in the United States and has the largest network of connections in the United States, so he is also an indispensable link. As for Murdoch, he is a giant. , in many places, a crushing advantage can be formed. Li Mingbao is rich, John is powerful, and Murdoch is powerful. Only the combination of the three parties can maintain this triangular alliance. If any major problem arises in the triangular alliance, it will be a problem for Mo. For Doc, it may be a good thing, because it is difficult for him to have problems, but for the other two people, it may not be a good thing, because then Murdoch's advantage will become huge. No one wants to be crushed, so John warned Li Mingbao to prepare ample cash flow, hoping that there would be no problems on Li Mingbao's side. If there was a problem, if Li Mingbao's side was controlled by the banking industry, it would be absolutely impossible for him. It's not a good thing. What the jackals in the bank like most is excess profits. It's not good news for them to worry about it. For his own safety, John has to take care of Li Mingbao to prevent him from showing up on the funds. Question. After all, Li Mingbao¡¯s most powerful weapon in this triangular alliance is funds. If he has no funds, it will be no different from Li Mingbao who has lost his weapons.??In the triangle alliance, it will not play any role. The pressure will be on him. John thinks that he does not have such broad shoulders, so he must remind Li Mingbao.
