Chapter 847: 852

Due to the complete privatization, Verizon is far away from the capital market. In recent years, Verizon's sense of existence among the public is very weak. Only the industry knows that this telecom operator has a deep-rooted strong layout in the mobile communication field.

During the dinner, Simon first discussed with Raymond Smith about pushing Verizon back into the capital market.

It's just another IPO.

There are many purposes and many benefits to this decision.

The first is to reduce the shareholding ratio of westerlow system to Verizon.

Under normal circumstances, business owners want to hold more shares in the company. Simon does the opposite, still in order to further integrate the westero system into the U.S. economy.

It's like this igritte IPO.

Taking into account the 100 million additional new shares issued recently according to the original green shoe mechanism, igritte's current total share capital has reached 4.426 billion shares, of which the number of shares held by westero company is 2.561 billion, and the shareholding ratio has been reduced to 57.9%. The biggest benefit of transferring up to 42.1% of the shares to igritte's management and investors is that igritte suffers less potential targets.

Tens of millions of investors' interests of more than 100 billion US dollars are tied with the westero system. Whether the federal antitrust agency or many competitors inside and outside the United States want to target igritte, it is a huge capital alliance behind igritte.

If you don't pay attention to it, it may break into pieces.

The U.S. telecommunications industry has been developing for more than a hundred years. If we want to break the deep-rooted old pattern, we will inevitably face many potential obstacles. Undoubtedly, the integration strategy can reduce these obstacles to the greatest extent.

The second is to raise money.

This is also the key expansion strategy of westrow system in the next few years. Taking advantage of the good market form, we should reserve more cash through listing or issuing bonds as much as possible. In the past, many new technology companies emerged in 90s after the Internet bubble burst.

The third reason is that it is more intuitive and convenient to complete the merger with AOL after listing.

Even the $30 billion valuation of Verizon Telecom, which is not listed on the stock market, is still low in Simon's view. If it directly merges with AOL, which has a high market value, it will be difficult to make a valuation satisfactory to all parties, and it may also cause potential litigation risks.

After the listing, the share prices of both sides are determined by the capital market, and the re start of the merger will not cause too much controversy.

Simon also discussed with Raymond Smith in advance the personnel issues after the merger of AOL and Verizon.

There is still some origin in this matter.

At first, the predecessor of AOL was just a start-up company providing network services attached to the predecessor of Verizon Bell Atlantic. At that time, Raymond Smith was already the leader of Bell Atlantic. Now AOL CEO Steve case is just an entrepreneur, and their status is very different.

Now, AOL is in the ascendant. Although their identities cannot be completely changed, once they are merged, Raymond Smith can only become a subordinate of Steve case.

Simon is very cautious about this kind of thing.

If Raymond Smith is unable to work closely with Steve Case or even restrict each other after the merger, the merger will be meaningless and may even bring disastrous consequences to the two companies. The decision to merge is unlikely to change, so Simon can only kick out one of the two if there are signs.

However, neither of them is out of the game that Simon would like to see.

Speaking about it during the meal, Raymond Smith expressed great regret and said that he would try his best to cooperate with case in the future, which reassured Simon a little, but it was not absolute.

Many things are easier said than done.

In the next few days, the media's comments on the 1995 Forbes 400 list of the rich in the United States became more heated. After all, there were too many highlights on this year's list.

Simon's personal wealth of $700 billion is high and hard to shake.

Immediately after that, the personal net assets of Microsoft founder Bill Gates also increased to $57.3 billion. Compared with 1994, the growth rate has also reached more than 100%.

Warren Buffett, the third place winner, has a personal wealth of 12.6 billion US dollars, which is beyond many people's expectations. To a large extent, it is thanks to the acquisition of metropolitan ABC Group by Daniels entertainment. Berkshire Hathaway, which owns Metro ABC Group, has been on the rise in recent months because of this positive trend.

Fourth place Larry Ellison is a dark horse. His $11.7 billion personal wealth mainly comes from his 31.2% stake in Oracle.

With the explosion of new technology industry and the close connection between Oracle and westero system, the market advantage of Oracle's database software has become more and more obvious in recent years. When Forbes counted the list, the market value of Oracle has reached 37.6 billion US dollars. Even if it can't be compared with 100 billion market value Big Macs such as igritte, it has surpassed most traditional enterprise giants in the US stock market.It is worth mentioning that westero's current shareholding in Oracle remains at 24.6%, so this company alone has contributed $9.2 billion to Simon's personal wealth.

Paul Allen, No. 5, has a personal wealth of $10.9 billion.

According to Forbes, the reference market value of Bill Gates and Paul Allen is US $151.5 billion. According to this calculation, the 18.7% stake of Westeros in Microsoft also contributed US $28.3 billion to Simon's personal wealth.

The sixth, seventh and eighth place are tied.

They are Tim Berners Lee, Jeff Bezos and Carol Bartz of igritte. Their wealth is 8 billion dollars.

The same super black horse.

At the beginning, Forbes magazine was just waiting for igritte to be listed to make a new annual list of wealth. Therefore, the wealth of the big three was based on the closing price of igritte on the first day of listing on October 6, and so was Simon's personal wealth.

John Kruger came in ninth with a personal wealth of $6.1 billion.

John Kruger is 81 years old this year. The old media tycoon who once fought with Sam leishidong for the control of Orion film and wanted to enter Hollywood has gradually retired. Over the years, he has been clearing up and selling a large number of assets, and then turning them into trust investment to prepare for the inheritance of wealth. Many TV stations of Fox TV network established by Rupert Murdoch are all of them From John Kruger's macro media company.

The 10th place is the Walton family brothers Jim Walton and John Walton, who are tied with the 11th place. Their personal wealth is $4.6 billion.

The Waltons are still to be reckoned with.

However, due to various reasons of equity changes, the wealth of Sam Walton's widow and four children is no longer uniform. After the two brothers, the personal wealth of the other three Waltons continues to occupy the 12th to 14th place, but the wealth figures are US $4.5 billion, US $4.5 billion and US $4.3 billion respectively.

After the top 10, it is worth mentioning that Alice Ferguson, the former housekeeper of the Westeros family, came in 15th with a personal wealth of $4 billion.

Amy Pascal, CEO of danielis entertainment, is 17th on the list with a personal wealth of $3.5 billion.

In addition, Claire Gein, the 35th c-girl, with a 13.2% stake in tincobail, is tied with Neil Brantley, the 36th founder of tincobail. Both of them are valued at $2.2 billion.

After that, d-girl Deborah Lipman also ranked 87th with a 56% stake in instagram and a personal wealth valuation of $1.1 billion.

This year's Forbes list of the 400 richest people in the United States has a threshold of $340 million, which happens to be closed by the famous talk show host Oprah Winfrey.

In the list of 400 people, excluding Bill Gates, Paul Allen, Larry Ellison and other famous enterprises that are only held by the westero system rather than controlled or supported by the westero system, Simon, Tim Berners Lee, Alice Ferguson, C girl and others who are really closely connected with the westero system can be regarded as "western" rich, with a total of 37 People.

If it wasn't for deliberate suppression from all sides, "Simon westero's control of the United States" would definitely become a hot topic on major media platforms in the near future. When a person relies on a huge amount of wealth to have a decisive impact on the politics, economy, culture and even military aspects of a country, the control is almost the same.

In fact, the westero system is far from reaching a certain level, but this trend is very obvious.

Just like this time.

Compared with the atmosphere of public opinion in the past few years, the media is full of excitement, and there are less clamour to restrict the continued expansion of Simon westero's personal wealth or to enact targeted tax laws. On the contrary, there are more and more doubts about the $700 billion figure.

That's what Simon wants to see.

700 billion dollars. How could it be?

All right.

even if it reaches $700 billion on the books, most of it is just stock assets or stock assets with serious bubbles. Do not all say that the new technology bubble is very serious now? Weiss trojan is the best embodiment.

Simon doesn't need to go out in person now for such things as public opinion guidance.

As the core of the whole westero system, not only its related enterprises, including Time Warner, News Corporation, New York Times Group and other media giants with close cooperation, will consciously safeguard a young man, because everyone's interests are related, and they are both prosperous and disadvantaged.

Simon's life is still in order after the outside world has turned down all the interviews as usual.

Danielis Entertainment's transaction settlement process of merging metropolis ABC Group has come to an end.

After the registration statistics of the stock settlement ratio in the first two weeks of October, 83% of them finally chose to convert the shares of metropolitan ABC Group into Denise entertainment shares. Even Warren Buffett changed the settlement ratio of half stock and half cash to 70% stock plus 30% cash.As a result, in the original $20.9 billion acquisition agreement, the share of cash payments needed by danilisi entertainment was only $3.5 billion, less than half of danilisi's own cash reserve of more than $7 billion.

On the other hand, after the settlement is expected to be completed and 236 million shares are paid to the shareholders of the former metropolitan ABC Group, the total share capital of the new Denise Entertainment Group will increase to 2.599 billion shares. Simon's shareholding in the new company after the merger will decrease from 81.9% to 74.5% with 1.937 billion shares.

According to Denise Entertainment's dual ownership structure, the shareholding ratio has dropped to 74.5%, and Simon's voting right to Denise entertainment is still as high as 96.7%.

Control doesn't move.

Therefore, Simon still thinks that the 74.5% shareholding ratio is a little high, but it is not easy to reduce it in the short term, so he can only reduce it slowly in the future.

Lawsuits and strikes surrounding the Wisconsin logistics distribution center have been suspended.

It was Simon's decision.

In order to avoid comparison between his latest wealth and fortune and a group of truck drivers destined to be excluded from the blacklist, it is better to wait until the recent public opinion cools down.

It's Friday, October 27th.

The end of the year is coming.

The third movie in the universe series, evocation 2, released by Denise entertainment, announced the opening of the Halloween schedule.

Before that, a series of films released in the summer season have been drawn one after another.

Among them, Jurassic Park 2's domestic box office in North America was 413 million US dollars, which temporarily ranked the top domestic box office in 1995. Whether it can hold this position depends on the box office performance of Batman vs Superman: Dawn of justice, which is released on December 22.

This is also a focus of recent fans.

There are also some controversies.

In principle, "Batman vs. Superman: Dawn of justice" will be put on the Thanksgiving schedule, which is more conducive to the full development of the box office potential of this DC superhero blockbuster across Thanksgiving and Christmas. One of the important reasons why it is set for December 22 is to make way for the 3D animated film beauty and the beast produced by Danielle Reese entertainment.

although Batman wars Superman: Justice dawn is issued by Time Warner, Simon has the final say in the schedule.

Pixar's 3D version of beauty and the beast is scheduled for November 17.

After all, it's my own son.

Moreover, Simon also hopes to leave some breathing space for other Hollywood studios' films. Otherwise, Batman vs Superman: Dawn of justice, which also has a local box office of 400 million, will be the only one to be released on Thanksgiving Day.

Time Warner has some complaints about this, but it can only tolerate it.

It's clear to all that other people will make a decision similar to Simon's.

In addition to Jurassic Park 2, Apollo 13, led by Tom Hanks, was also produced by danielis entertainment. The cumulative box office in North America was 177 million US dollars. Jurassic Park 2 and Apollo 13 also became the only two films with box office exceeding 100 million US dollars in the summer of 1995.

The production cost of David finch's new film "psychological game" released by Denise entertainment at the end of the summer season is US $50 million, and the domestic box office is only US $51.34 million. It is estimated that the overseas box office is about the same level. The global record of breaking 100 million is not too bad, but it is far from satisfactory.

Other Hollywood studios' films such as "tiger gall 3", "ghost horse elf", "brave heart" were directly or indirectly impacted by "Jurassic Park 2", which failed to cross the threshold of 100 million yuan this time.

Warner Bros. burned $175 million of the future water world, which is what the old studio paid for.

Although Jurassic Park 2 is far away from the schedule at the end of July, the last sci-fi film only took back $63.19 million at the local box office, which is 20 million less than that in history. Under the competition between the overseas market and Jurassic Park 2, it is expected that it will only barely get about $100 million at the box office.

The global revenue of 160 million is estimated to be about 70 million US dollars, which is far from the production budget of 175 million US dollars.

also did not have universal studios to build a future water world scenic spot in disguise to make up for losses this time. After all, daniresi entertainment has used up all its own IP, and warner can only watch huge amounts of loss accounts and cry for no tears.

In the original space-time, Hollywood's two famous box office dumbbells in 1995, the dust of "future water world" has been settled. Next, we need to see whether "cut throat island" will repeat the same mistakes.

According to the recent publicity figures released by the two studios, the final production budget of "cut throat island", which is jointly produced by karock pictures and paramount of sigram, relying on German capital, has also reached US $100 million. Moreover, it is on the same day as the 3D animated film "beauty and the beast" produced by daenerys entertainment, both of which are on November 17.If "cut throat island" fails again, two box office duds will be enough to pour cold water on a lot of ambitious speculative capital who want to show their talents in Hollywood.

Hollywood is not for everyone.

With fewer troublemakers, Denise's entertainment position will be more stable.

New York, Manhattan.

The fourth wemmie show will be held on November 11. The Lexington Avenue Arsenal near Gramsci Park in midtown has been contracted by wemmie company for the rehearsal of the show.

The list of this year's Vimy angels has been finalized before fashion week in September.

One of the biggest changes is undoubtedly the departure of Cindy Crawford and Yasmin Gehry, the spokesmen of the vermeen angels, and the vacancy of EVA hezgova from the Czech Republic and Fernando Lima from Brazil to replace Cindy.

EVA herzgova is nothing.

The 22-year-old czech girl rose rapidly last year. Relying on a series of enviable and enviable resources, she quickly rose to the top of the model popularity list launched by igrit portal fashion section. Now she has won the title of "super model" through various brand shows, fashion endorsements and magazine covers.

As a result, EVA herzgova has become a new spokesperson for the vermeen angel, at least with sufficient qualifications.

Fernando Lima, who has just turned 18 this year, has inevitably caused a lot of controversy. The big goblins in the fashion circle are tearing up quite bitterly. It's a pity that this time, even if we are dissatisfied, we can only watch eagerly. Who let the girl stand behind Simon westero.

Not to mention Simon westero's $700 billion fortune, it's just the influence of westero system in the fashion circle. Since someone has chosen Fernando Lima, others can only look at it with envy.

Even John Casablanca, the "Godfather" of the industry who used to dominate the fashion circle, said that silence means silence, not to mention their little models. Who dares to be a bad hand in private and put some black material on the media? Apart from being completely banned, there is no second result at all.

As for why westero chose EVA hezgova and Fernando Lima, it's just a man's own preference.

It's not even a man's bed.

Because there are too many models willing to do so in the current circle.

It's just luck.

For example, now that the hall of the T-stage has been set up in the arsenal, the lucky man named Fernanda Lima nestles up to a man in the stands during the rehearsal of other themes. He can see the goblins on the T-stage flashing in their eyes.

Bichi!

They're all big six foot goblins, pretending to be girls next door. It's not harmonious at all. They're still coquettish. Tut Tut, I wish you two feet sprained together during the next rehearsal.
