Charles bludorn digested the analysis results given by Gao Xian and finally said, "with the rise of inflation, the cost of film production will increase accordingly. It's not easy to make money."
Gao Xian smiled. Of course, what Charles bludorn said is right. However, his investment in each film is targeted, and the profit pressure caused by the increase of production cost can be ignored.
Charles bludorn turned to the movie star wars, "how's the Sands Hotel in Las Vegas transformed?"
"Everything goes well and will not delay the premiere of Star Wars." Gao Xian urged bluntly: "Paramount must give sufficient support to the marketing advertising of star wars, otherwise, I will intervene personally."
This is not abrupt. Before, including films such as the godfather, paramount did not get enough resources to do marketing advertising according to the standard required by Gao Xian. Gao Xian gave additional support, and the final result also made the stingy side lose face.
In short, Gaoxian has strong capital, and the right to speak must be more and more important.
"I will give Barry Diller more authority. After all, I also quite expect that the share price of Gulf western industries can go out of a new high," Charles bludorn made a clear response.
……
After reaching an agreement with Charles bludorn on the film star wars, Gao Xian got a message from David Rockefeller, according to which, "I knew that Sir Gao intended to enter the American banking industry, and I had a desire to make a match. Now there is an opportunity. The marine Miran bank, headquartered in Buffalo, northern New York, is in trouble. Many shareholders do not reject the arrangement of being acquired. You might as well contact it early and maybe you can get a satisfactory harvest."
Incidentally, David Rockefeller provided this information with its own policy background.
With the Carter cabinet, which appointed many heavyweight liberals to important positions, came into power, the regulatory level in the United States has been further relaxed.
Take the American banking industry as an analogy. In the past, foreign capital could not control it, but now it can be controlled slowly. Even foreign capital can turn it into a wholly-owned subsidiary.
The vision of doing business naturally needs to see before the regulatory policy boots fall to the ground, so the information provided by David Rockefeller is quite valuable.
Soon, more comprehensive information about ocean Miran bank was placed on Gao Xian's desk.
Speaking of history, ocean Miran bank has a long history. It was founded in 1850. It is not difficult to guess from the name "ocean". At the beginning, its business was mainly related to shipping. After several mergers and acquisitions, it has developed to today, with about 300 branches, perfect network and ranking in the top 20 in the banking industry of the whole United States.
The main business scope of marine Miran bank is in New York state. Its business is to absorb deposits, issue consumer credit and loans to small and medium-sized enterprises. It usually operates steadily. However, during the severe economic recession from 1974 to 1975 caused by the world oil crisis, non-performing loans increased greatly. In the past 1976, the profit level fell to US $12 million, At the bottom of the U.S. banking industry's capital return ranking.
Seeing that it was impossible to get out of the dilemma on its own, ocean Miran bank began to hope to win foreign aid.
To describe this situation in a vernacular, if someone is willing to spend $600 million, he can buy the whole ocean myran bank completely.
Of course, this is just a theory. After all, there are regulatory policy restrictions, and the shareholders of ocean Miran bank may not be willing to quit the bank completely by making a one-off deal.
In Gao Xian's view, if favorable banks can get the control of ocean Miran bank, it means that they have a quite good foothold in the banking industry in North America.
In addition, in John Whitehead's Goldman Sachs consulting service report to Gao Xian, Gao Xian also pointed out one point that Gao Xian did not notice, that is, after ocean Milan bank and repeatedly deliberated this idea for several times, Gao Xian immediately informed Chen Zuze, general manager of Xinli bank in Xiangjiang, "I got a great opportunity for the internationalization of favorable banks in New York. You informed the board members of Huifeng bank, Standard Chartered Bank, Jardine's harmony and other favorable banks to prepare for a meeting. As soon as I returned to Xiangjiang, I would seize the time to start discussion."
