Chapter 821(1/2)
Who is the number one general under Tang En?
New Global CEO Barry Diller?
No, he is an adjutant.
Blanca Reyes, head of personal finance team and operator of Don Capital?
No, he is an aide.
The real general who expanded his territory was Scott Swift!
Back then, Tang En made trouble in the stock market and made a lot of money to make a fortune, relying on this trader who was a Wall Street stockbroker!
Later, Don En could not withstand the pressure of public opinion and decided to withdraw from the stock market operation. He took out $500 million to establish the "Scott Swift Venture Capital Foundation", which is mainly aimed at the Internet and technology markets in Asia.
In this foundation, Donn Capital holds 80% of the shares and Scott Swift holds 20% of the shares, which is considered an operating dry stock.
In just three years, the current valuation of this venture capital fund has exceeded US$7 billion!
It holds shares including 33.5% of Penguin Company, 15% of Alibaba’s shares, 22.6% of Samsung Electronics’ shares, 25% of Baidu’s shares, 28% of Naver’s shares, and nearly 50 large and small companies.
Don't know what he said about Tang's foresight, but Scott Swift's capital operation is also important!
His startup capital is only 500 million US dollars, and if Tang Enlai was allowed to operate, he would not have made such a big plate.
Scott Swift is from Wall Street and has mastered his financial means. The operation of the entire foundation is to continue to invest, borrow, invest and borrow.
The multiple debt structure is dazzling.
At the most, the foundation was burdened with more than $1.5 billion in debt!
Such powerful financial operations can only be played by people on Wall Street.
Seeing that Baidu was about to go public, Tang En didn't like the company very much. In order to coordinate with Baidu's management, Scott Swift planned to sell all the 25% stakes he held to Silicon Valley venture capital fund DeFengjie for US$750 million in order to repay part of the debt.
In order to develop the Far East career, Scott Swift had been separated from his wife for a long time and had already divorced.
Tang En especially favors Taylor, and there are some factors that arise.
"Your dad has a girlfriend, don't make trouble then."
On the Boeing 747 soaring in the sky, Don was cutting the fruit and admonishing the little Taylor sitting beside him.
Little Taylor said absent-mindedly: "I'm not a child anymore. He had told me a long time ago that he found a British woman who worked in Singapore, who was 20 years younger than him. I heard that they were all pregnant."
"Ah? Pregnant?"
Donn was a little surprised. This Scott Swift was quick enough!
He is 20 years younger than him...will he be only 19 years old this year?
Just 5 years older than Taylor?
Awesome enough!
"Fuss!" Little Taylor looked old-fashioned, "He is so rich, and this result is normal. However, I still hope that the sister can give birth to a sister for me. I like her."
"What a mess!"
Tang En was so amused that he handed her the peeled apple and stroked her soft hair.
Little Taylor took a bite, his big eyes rolled around and said pitifully: "Tang En, my dad is going to have a new family, and my mom is busy working for you every day, and no one loves me..."
"Isn't it still me? If it weren't for me, would you think you could run out this time?" Tang En naturally knew what she was thinking. He stretched his head unceremoniously, rubbed it on the apple and took a bite.
Little Taylor looked at the apple that had been bitten for two times. The joyful eyes could moisten water. He had a smile on his lips and raised his chin and said, "Tang Eun, I heard that Korean laws are very loose. Girls... It seems that my age has met the standards."
Tang En frowned, "Another nonsense!"
"I'm not talking nonsense!" Little Taylor snorted and said willfully, "Don't look down on others. Do you think I'm so young? If you don't believe me, touch me. Even if you can't compare to Scarlett, you will definitely not be younger than Natalie!"
Tang En was both angry and funny, "I said you were too young."
"I don't care. This time I go to Korea, I will sleep with you, I want to be your woman!" Little Taylor bit the apple like an venting, and was so angry that he was unquestionable.
Tang En said with a headache: "How did you guarantee it before coming? Don't mess around. I'm going to Korea this time, and your father is here too. At that time, he will definitely pick you up and live with you."
"Then when will you get along with me?" Little Taylor cried, flattened his little mouth, and his eyes were full of tears.
Tang En said incomprehensiblely: "What are you anxious about? Are you just so anxious to be a woman? It's too young and it's not good for your health. It's going to take two or three years."
"Okay! Who said it was bad? My friends are all very good!" Little Taylor retorted dissatisfiedly, believing that Tang En was coaxing her.
Tang En said unhappily: "Can you be the same as those wild girls? Your father is a rich man with a net worth of $1 billion, and I am the richest man in the world! Girls, be reserved and loving, how do you educate you in your daily life?"
Little Taylor lowered his head and said aggrievedly: "I just want to give it a try."
Tang En sighed and said softly: "Okay, I didn't teach you a lesson. I just wanted to explain a truth to you. Look at Natalie and Scarlett's two sisters, are they both seventeen or eighteen years old and are with me? So is Gale."
Little Taylor pouted, feeling depressed.
Don Eun had no choice but to lean over and kiss her on the lips for a few seconds.
He didn't stick out his tongue, and he was very perfunctory.
However, such intimate actions made Little Taylor feel a lot of surprise, and he suddenly cheered and his eyes were bright and glowing, "Wow! So sweet, I want it! I want it!"
"What's so sweet? Is it an apple?" Tang En stroked her hair and was indescribably doting.
Little Taylor didn't believe it, so he came over again, licked Tang En's lips twice, pursed his lips, and laughed, "It's really like an apple."
"Stupid girl!"
Tang En was so amused and crying.
Little Taylor was very dishonest, blinked his big eyes, then he knelt up, lay on Don En's shoulder, and whispered in his ear: "I like this plane. When I first came, I was on the plane, okay?"
Tang En twitched the corner of his mouth, "Okay."
...
Tang En's trip to Korea was mainly for two things.
First, make friends with industry insiders in South Korea.
South Korea's film market is relatively international, with box office sharing reaching 55%, which is higher than the average level in the United States.
This is a piece of fat!
Moreover, the South Korean government is currently promoting the special effects industry with all its might, and even intends to establish a "Movie Special Effects City" in Daejeon City, attaching great importance to the film industry.
This year, the Korean movie "Tai Chi Flag Flying" and the computer CG animation "Sky Warrior" were all produced by local Korean special effects companies, and the effect was very good.
As of now, South Korea is already the special effects kingdom of Asian movies.
Most of the films including "Hero", "The Unrestrained", "The Ambush on Ten" and "Assembly" in mainland China, with the post-production special effects being produced in Korea.
This is very important!
The United States' special effects technology is the world's number one, but the cost is too high!
New Global has sold its special effects company "digital field" to Disney.
In the future, South Korea will be a major development point for Hollywood movies.
High-end special effects are made in the United States; relatively low-end simple special effects do not require a lot of money to hire American labor, and Koreans can do it.
South Korea's cheap special effects will be an important branch of film craftsmanship all over the world.
It is necessary for Tang En to come here in advance and leave a passion for incense.
If he can become the finishing touch of "Korean movies", he will leave great fame, connections and prestige here. New Universal movies can also be unstoppable in South Korea.
More importantly, the current Korean film policy stipulates that cinemas must play Korean movies at least 147 days a year!
This rigid requirement of domestic protection is very unfriendly to Hollywood.
There is nothing in Japan!
South Korea's entertainment industry is completely imitating Japan. If this restriction order can be banned... Hollywood movies will further sweep the Korean market!
With this great contribution, Tang En's status in Hollywood will further increase and be respected by everyone!
In addition to the movie, it is Apple's negotiating team.
Tim Cook led a team to Asia to find spare parts manufacturers for mobile phones. The preliminary negotiations were mainly aimed at display screens.
In 2004, Japan and Takashima had the best screen technology in the world.
However, the price is very high.
In contrast, Samsung Electronics, which is chasing for the most courageously, is very cheap.
Samsung's screen technology...has been attributed to 5 years ago.
At that time, Apple wanted to produce LCD computers, but the screens in Japan and Baodao were too expensive. Jobs slapped his thigh and simply went alone, looking for another electronics company in Asia to focus on support!
This is Samsung Electronics.
It can be said that Samsung Electronics' screen technology comes entirely from Apple's strong support back then.
Before 1999, Samsung Electronics' brand value was only US$3 billion, and it could only assemble and produce some TVs and washing machines. The current brand value has reached US$10 billion, and Apple has played a significant role in this.
As a company supported by Apple, Samsung is the first choice for iPhone screens!
