At the same time, Hong Kong Island.

Liu Huade, Zhou Runfa, Liang Jiahui and Gu Tianle, the four great movie stars, gathered together, each holding a red wine glass and laughing: "Cheers to Zhang Xiao's victory."

"cheers!"

The four of them raised their heads and drank the red wine in their glasses.

Liu Huade laughed loudly and said: "Gu Zai, how much did you earn?"

"Not much, just over thirty-six million US dollars." Furuta said with a smile.

Liang Jiahui shook his head and said: "Thirty-six million U.S. dollars is not much? You really have a big tone!"

Zhou Runfa said: "Compared with Andy Lau, Goo Jai's money is really not that much."

It turned out that the four of them believed in Zhang Xiao's ability so much that when the stock market war started, they also shorted Universal Pictures shares.

At the beginning, each person only invested 3 million US dollars. Unexpectedly, Universal Pictures' stock price rose instead of falling. In order to prevent themselves from being liquidated, the four people just continued to invest.

In the end, Andy Lau invested 95 million U.S. dollars, Chow Yun-fat invested 73 million U.S. dollars, Leung Ka-fai invested 66 million U.S. dollars, and Gu Tianle invested 58 million U.S. dollars.

Originally, the four of them prepared for the worst and planned to hold the shares for a long time until Universal Pictures' stock price fell. But who knew that the situation suddenly reversed and Universal Pictures' stock price plummeted like a cliff.

The four of them were overjoyed and quickly sold the stocks and made a huge profit.

Liu Huade said: "Well, if I had known earlier, I would have sold it later. If I had waited another two minutes, I would have made at least 10% more profit."

Liang Jiahui said: "Let's just be content. This thing is so exciting."

Liu Huade smiled and said: "We have all made so much, how much do you think Zhang Xiao earns?"

Zhou Runfa said: "Looking at the Internet, the funds involved in this financial war exceed two trillion US dollars. I estimate that Zhang Xiao can earn tens of billions of US dollars no matter what."

Gutianle praised: "With tens of billions of dollars, these big guys are really scary."

Zhou Runfa patted his shoulder and said with a smile: "Just now, Zhang Xiao's bonus of 200 billion US dollars almost exploded. If it were you, would you be able to bear it?"

Gu Tianle shook his head and said: "I can't stand it, so we have to be content with what we have. Come and have another drink."

Lighthouse Country, Universal Pictures Headquarters.

After losing 530 billion U.S. dollars, all five Hollywood giants looked ashen.

None of them spent 80 billion U.S. dollars. They thought they could make a fortune, but who knew that they would lose everything this time?

You know, 80 billion US dollars is almost their profit in the past ten years. This is simply killing them.

John was forced to act, and kept shaking his head: "Oh, I regret it, I regret it!"

Alva said angrily: "It's all Marlington's fault. If it weren't for his murder video, Zhang Xiao wouldn't be able to win even if his funds were doubled."

Indeed, Zhang Xiao was able to defeat Universal Pictures not because of his own strength. After all, he only had 380 billion U.S. dollars in hand, and he wanted to leverage Universal Pictures' 160 billion U.S. dollars.

With US$530 billion in protective funds, there is absolutely no chance of winning.

Unfortunately, the video of Marlington's murder caused a violent chain reaction. Wall Street saw an opportunity to make a fortune and naturally would not let it go.

At that moment, the capital shorted against Universal Pictures was as high as two trillion, which was equivalent to Universal Pictures becoming the enemy of the entire Wall Street. The result was self-evident.

"Where's Marlington?" Jiadley glanced around and suddenly found that Marlington was missing.

Mansi's face turned pale and he said, "He ran away a long time ago."

Jiadeli said: "Why don't you hug him?"

Maners smiled bitterly and said: "What's the use? Can he compensate for our losses?"

Jiadeli was silent.

···

At this time, Marlington was driving wildly on the road. After the video of his murder was exposed, Marlington was so frightened that he dared to stay where he was and slipped out quietly.

"Zhang Xiao, just wait for me, I'm going to kill you." Marlington said through gritted teeth while driving.

Twenty minutes later, Marlington arrived at a small manor with beautiful scenery.

This is his secret base, not even his wife knows about this place.

Entering the bedroom, Marlington opened the safe, which contained only a passport, three bearer checks worth two billion U.S. dollars, and some valuable diamond jewelry.

After putting them all in his briefcase, Marlington went to the dressing room, took out a polymer simulation mask and put it on his face.

After some fiddling, Marlington looked in the mirror and saw that he looked almost the same as the person in his passport photo.

Marlington showed a smile, walked into the cloakroom, changed his clothes, and drove a pickup truck toward New York International Airport.

The cunning rabbit has three caves and a makeover.

It must be said that Marlington was very well prepared.

···

After the video of Marlington's murder was exposed on the Internet, the New York police did not dare to neglect it and immediately rushed to Universal Studios and Marlington's home.

Unfortunately, by the time they arrived, Marlington had already run away.

"What? Marlington ran away?" When Zhang Xiao heard the news, his face was full of surprise.

Herman nodded and said: "Yes, the police are pursuing him in all aspects, but he seems to have disappeared from the world. No one can find him. The police estimate that Marlington has probably left.

The lighthouse country."

Zhang Xiao narrowed his eyes slightly and said: "It seems that this guy has been prepared for this day for a long time!"

Herman nodded and said: "Yes, Mr. Zhang, Universal Pictures is finished, and the other four giants have also suffered heavy losses. After some planning, we want to acquire Universal Pictures. What do you think?"

"Of course!" Zhang Xiao nodded and said, "By the way, do you need financing?"

"Yes!" Herman nodded: "Mr. Stanford wants to convene a board of directors to raise 50 billion US dollars to purchase assets under the name of Universal Pictures. Of course, the ownership of Universal's special effects and film library can be owned by you.

, only Universal Cinemas, I hope you can let Disney hold 50% of the equity."

After Zhang Xiao thought about it carefully, he said: "No problem, I am worried about the operation of the theater chain. With professionals like you here, I feel relieved."

When Herman heard this, he immediately said happily: "Thank you, Mr. Zhang."

Zhang Xiao waved his hand and said: "You'd better go faster, there should be a lot of people paying attention to Universal Pictures."

Herman nodded and said: "Understood!"

It must be said that Stanford was very fast, and the Disney board of directors was held on the afternoon of the next day.

Zhang Xiao attended the meeting in person. This was also his first time attending the board of directors.

Stanford smiled and said, "I don't think I need to introduce you to this one!"

"Need not!"

"I am a huge fan of Mr. Zhang."

"Mr. Zhang is really young and promising!"

"Yesterday's financial war wiped out Universal Pictures in one fell swoop. Mr. Zhang is really awesome."

"Yes, Mr. Zhang is very amazing in both acting and business strategy."
