Rebirth capital madman
After exchanging some information with Willard butcher, Gao Xian left, got on the bus and walked for a while. Suddenly, he remembered a channel that could be used to sidestep and confirm the development of the situation, that is, Las Vegas gambling tycoon cork Kerian, who will bring great harm to Hollywood MGM.
Although Kirk kirkerian has been sucking at MGM through capital operation, he is still not satisfied and has another eye on Hollywood's Columbia film industry.
This phenomenon is not surprising. In fact, almost all the big companies in Hollywood, except Disney, which still has family power, have become playthings in the hands of capital. Columbia film, which almost went bankrupt in the early 1970s, is no exception, but, Compared with the Bay Western Industrial Company standing behind paramount in the top 60 of the world's top 500, it is not so prominent.
It is estimated that Kirk kirkerian saw that there was no monopoly among the shareholders of Columbia film, so he chose Columbia film. The year before last, that is, at the end of 1978, he took 5.5% of the shares of Columbia film and announced the launch of a takeover offer.
But the result was a little funny. Kirk kirkerian thought Columbia film was a soft persimmon, but maybe his bad reputation of harming MGM was too frightening for investors, so it seemed that the shareholders of Columbia film, who were in a mess, joined hands to resist and forcibly spoiled Kirk kirkerian's plan to buy Columbia film.
However, Kirk kirkerian did not give it in vain. On the surface, there was a temporary truce and secretly took the line of Nelson hunt. The two sides planned to jointly control Columbia film.
In this case, of course, Kirk Kerian's strength soared, and he immediately increased his share of Columbia film to 25%.
While other Colombian film shareholders were angry, they continued to resist and took up antitrust weapons in another way.
Not to mention, this move did have an effect.
You know, at this stage, after all, the United States has not entered the Reagan era under the banner of a new free economy. The Carter Administration naturally continues the ideas of its predecessors since Roosevelt's new deal in many aspects.
Although MGM has been tossed around by Kirk kirkerian, it has a deep foundation and can pile up hundreds of millions of dollars on its balance sheet; Columbia film has a large volume. Its business covers production, distribution, records and other fields. It even entered the booming video game industry and spent $50 million to acquire Gottlieb, an arcade game company headquartered in Chicago.
If these two "big men" in Hollywood belong to cork kirkerian, they are actually suspected of monopoly.
In this way, the Columbia film acquisition war initiated by Kirk kirkerian has entered the game stage of judicial proceedings from the stage of competing for shares. Up to now, no clear statement has been heard from the ruling.
Gao Xian, who has mastered this situation, contacted cork kerlian in Las Vegas by phone. He first chatted about the business performance of hotels and casinos, and then seemed to ask casually, "by the way, how is your acquisition of Columbia film? With Nelson Hunter as an ally, you will solve the problem even if you encounter problems?"
"Don't mention it. I'm still an ally. I'm hanging in the air now..." cork kerlian's tone is full of unspeakable annoyance. "Sir Gao, this matter is very complicated and hard to say. Since you mentioned it, I'll go to New York right away and talk to you."
"Another day, there are still things to deal with in Xiangjiang. I'll leave soon." Gao Xian, who refused, muttered in his heart, "Just listen to your words, I know Nelson hunt is off the chain, which confirms that the hunt brothers are struggling with the extra margin for speculation in silver futures. They simply don't care about the normal easy operation of acquiring Columbia film."
"In this way, I have achieved my goal. What are you flying here for? Just like you are in a hurry, you may ask for money. Save it."
Kirk kirkerian on the other end of the phone was worried. "Sir Gao, five hours at most. Can't you wait?"
"OK, OK, then I'll be waiting for you in New York." feeling that Kirk kerlian was really urgent, Gao Xian relaxed.
After all, Las Vegas is a deep Jianghu. Having a friend who takes care of each other is beneficial and harmless. In recent years, Gao Xian and cork Kirkland have been getting along well. Just wait. Cork Kirkland really needs to find his own help and have to come up with valuable chips.
……
It has to be said that when he was young, Kirk Kerian, who was a pilot, was worthy of being the birthday star who lived to nearly 100 years old in the "old script". He was in great health. Now he was over 60 years old, he soon flew from the west of the United States to the east coast of the United States and appeared in front of Sir Gao in good spirits.
"What can't we talk on the phone? We have to talk face to face so hard." Gao Xian, who always respects the old and loves the young, greeted warmly, as if he hadn't refused before.
"Only in this way can I show my sincerity." Kirk kirkerian laughed. "Sir Gao, to be honest, I'm in a dilemma. If you can, please ask Sir Gao for help."
Gao Xian quietly answered, "what can be difficult for you, a gambling tycoon?"
"It's not the trouble of buying Colombian films." cork cochrian lamented: "I'm not afraid of your jokes. I was fooled by Nelson hunt. I didn't get any money I promised before."
"Sir Gao must know that the current relationship between me and other shareholders of Columbia film is meaningless. It takes up the capital flow for nothing. In particular, the Federal Reserve has tightened monetary policy, the bank loan interest rate has increased a lot compared with the previous one, and a large amount of interest is generated every day. It is estimated that many people are waiting to see my joke."
Since all the interviews were conducted, Gao Xian no longer refused to point to the core of the problem and said, "do you mean that the shares of Columbia film you bought were smashed in your hand?"
"It's just in my hand," said Kirk kirkerian with a bitter smile. "Without Nelson Hunt's support, I can't spend it with those Colombian film shareholders who oppose me. Otherwise, sir Gao will support me?"
"I don't have the energy of Nelson hunt." Gao Xian quickly waved away. "Paramount is enough for me to worry about."
"Then I'll ask Sir Gao to help me pull me out of the pit." Kirk kirkerian asked sincerely, "I believe Sir Gao has this ability and this kindness, which I must remember."
Gao Xian mused, "what do you want me to do?"
Kirk kirkerian said tentatively, "please accept my Colombian film shares at a price that is easy to negotiate, which is better than the mortgaged bank that can't even take them at half the price. In this way, I can get out with dignity. I believe that other shareholders of Colombian film won't mind with Sir Gao's good reputation."
Gao Xian smiled. Kirk kirkerian, an old fox, said beautiful words and the price was easy to negotiate, but he actually showed the bottom line.
Well, I'm not the one who takes advantage of the fire and drives people to death. Let's be kind and help.
"So..." Gao Xian said, "I'll introduce Howard Hughes company, Howard Hughes foundation and other investment departments to accept your Columbia film shares. The price will not be too low, but it won't be too high. Try to make you accept it."
"Thank you, sir Gao." seeing Kirk kerlian who could finally get out of the pit, he said with joy: "I knew it was right to find Sir Gao!"
……
After Gao Xian promised to "wipe his ass" for Kirk kerlian, he gave an instruction to Michael Blumenthal, CEO of Howard Hughes company, director of Howard Hughes foundation and former US finance minister, "Isn't Coca Cola thinking about how to launch a new round of brand building? Ask them if they want to enter Hollywood and buy Columbia Pictures?"
