On the balcony of the Phantom Building, Xiao Ran quietly looked at the night in the distance. Hong Kong looked particularly beautiful that day, and the beauty also became a bit desolate because of what happened during the day. Accompanying him was Lin Qingxia
, the two children are taken care of by grandpa and grandma at home.
"Hong Kong is a beautiful city, and no one is willing to let it become desolate, what do you think?" Xiao Ran held Lin Qingxia's hand and said, looking at her, and his deep feelings were undoubtedly revealed: "Besides, I don't
Allow this place to be destroyed by those Soros guys!”
Lin Qingxia said nothing, just looked at her husband blankly. At first, she didn't understand why Xiao Ran came here, but now she thought she might know. Only from this position can she see further.
Stretching out his hand to gently smooth Lin Qingxia's hair that was messed up by the breeze, Xiao Ran smiled deeply at Lin Qingxia, turned around and walked towards Guan Xin and the others. In this cool night, the breeze is always pleasant, Xiao Ran sat on the chair
He sat down and looked at Guan Xin opposite: "Master, has the underworld been settled?"
"No problem, Liu Bin is sitting there, those monkeys can't play any tricks!" It's hard to describe Guan Xin's expression, which seems to not care about anything, but also looks very indifferent.
"Very good!" Xiao Ran couldn't help but praise. He was always relieved when Guan Xin took action. He snapped his fingers to Yang Yang and the others next to him, and Yang Yang immediately left here with understanding. After a while, he saw
A big meal appeared here. Xiao Ran looked at everyone with a smile and said: "Tonight, let's countdown to the return!"
Although the financial and stock markets were bleak during the day, the impact on the homecoming celebration in the evening was not as great as imagined. It was just that a shadow was vaguely laid behind the celebration.
Now in many places across Hong Kong, countless citizens have poured into the streets to welcome the centenary celebration after enjoying dinner. The streets are decorated with lights and colorful banners, and there are signs of welcoming 1997 everywhere, and there is also no shortage of advertisements. It is really smart.
.
Late at night, the People's Liberation Army began to enter Hong Kong. The lineup was not very large, but it was unusually energetic and mighty. Through the TV broadcast, all the gangsters trapped in the hall were trembling. Fortunately, they really didn't think about causing trouble, otherwise,
The People's Liberation Army alone is enough for them to drink several cups.
There were cheers in several places. Only on the spacious balcony of the Phantom Building, Xiao Ran looked at the group of people quietly and suddenly smiled. He had not seen the return of Hong Kong before, because at that time he was trapped in the city due to wandering.
There was no electricity or TV in the countryside. He thought, if he could appreciate it now, it would make up for it.
It's just that today is different from the past. In the past, he was a happy and comfortable wanderer, but now he is a high-ranking figure who is troubled by everything. The ups and downs of life are so fast that even he can't imagine it.
It can be seen that things in the world are really wonderful.
At this moment, Pylock is fighting to the death with the CEOs of the American Film Association and the other six major companies for the pay. The pay is actually secondary, and the main thing is the "evil" behavior of Universal and Columbia to compete for actors. Perhaps it is better to say that it is
Targeting the world.
Michael's mood was very unstable. Who was Pylock before? Now he dared to be serious with him. However, when he thought about the boss behind Pylock, he felt weak. He had to admit that Pylock was definitely qualified to talk to him like this.
He speaks.
However, it is definitely not Michael's character to just admit defeat. He barely suppressed his emotions and said: "Pylock, I have to admit that you are not doing this right. You are competing with Colombia like this, and you are hurting."
It’s our collective interest!”
Pylock was a little unjust. In fact, it was not he who finalized the matter, but Wei Dongling's decision, and Han Long took care of it. However, now that he is from Universal, he has to swallow this dead mouse: "Michael, I miss you.
You're wrong, your collective does not include Universal, doesn't it?"
Michael was so angry that he couldn't speak when he was slapped by Pylock. Just when he was about to get angry, Turner, the old fox, finally spoke and said kindly to Xiao Ran: "Pylock, you know that the increase in the salary will not do anything to us.
The good thing is that we should try our best to lower the price!"
"Turner, you are also wrong. It is not Universal that is raising the salary this time, but Columbia. I think you have found the wrong person!" Pylock is full of confidence. With the Phantom as his signature, he dares to follow anyone here.
People call the shots.
Turner was not sent to Pylock, but still laughed and said: "But, I think dear Pylock must not have forgotten that it was Universal who first raised the salary by one million, and Columbia had no choice but to take this step!"
In fact, Pylock was not as arrogant as he expected, but this time it was because Wei Dongling instructed him to be as tough as possible. Therefore, he had to play the role of Zhuge Liang in this war of words: "I understand, you don't want to
Universal sells blockbusters, right? I need this actor, so I’m willing to pay this price to sign him. He’s not worth 40 million, so I gave up!”
Michael finally couldn't hold it anymore. Seeing Pylock's expression, the feeling of being overshadowed became stronger and stronger. He immediately shouted: "Pylock, let me tell you, we are responsible for the rules of Hollywood."
Decision, it will never be your turn to violate it!"
Turner and others secretly groaned, and were annoyed that Michael had such a bad temper. Pylock's expression changed drastically, and he glanced around with the same angry expression, and said proudly: "Then I'm sorry, Universal has not recognized this so-called
Before it becomes a rule, it will never become a rule!"
After saying that, Pylock walked away. When he walked to the door, he suddenly turned around and looked around at the six old guys. He raised his head and said proudly: "If you want Universal to agree with this rule, then defeat Universal this summer. Otherwise,
That’s the fucking rules…”
Murdoch has been thinking, he didn't even bother to speak just now, these boring guys, they don't even have enough strength to challenge Universal. He doesn't even think about how Universal has won over the years with the help of Phantom and the distribution of the film.
How many times have they won the annual box office championship? What qualifications do they have to speak?
However, he believes that if the plan mentioned by Turner and Michael is effective, it may have a good chance of overwhelming Universal, and it will not be too late to say something by then. For him, the main purpose now is to get Shuxiang Media in this way.
This doesn't look difficult. Doesn't it?
In the afternoon, the Phantom indeed launched a sniper attack on News Corporation's acquisition. As before, it tried to sabotage News Corporation's deal again. However, this time, Murdoch knew very well that he did not care about the acquisition. What he cared about was the scholarly interest.
acquisition. Of course, it’s not that he doesn’t want to acquire Phantom, but that only requires him to have the strength.
He is currently negotiating with a banker. As long as the negotiation is successful, he will definitely be able to raise enough funds to become a scholar. Otherwise, he will have to forcibly acquire the North American company to strengthen the banker.
If you have the confidence, it will not be too late to start with Shuxiang when the time comes.
It was late at night in Hong Kong. Xiao Ran and Guan Xin were all enjoying themselves. They looked at Guan Xin with smiles: "Master, after this time, retire with us. You are old, so you still have to fight and kill."
, that’s really…”
Guan Xin shrugged, it didn't matter whether he retired or not. However, he couldn't help but sigh. He had witnessed Phantom's rapid growth into a super empire. He never imagined that so many things had happened in ten years.
, and Xiao Ran and the others did so well.
"Also, Sunshine, Monkey, you should retire together! Anyway, I suddenly found that I really can't live without you!" Xiao Ran clicked his tongue, looked at Sunshine and Monkey and said: "This lesson tells us, never try to rely on anyone
people!"
"Brother Ran, if you want to retire, it won't be easy!" Fang Xiaoqiang immediately expressed his objection. Without Xiao Ran, what would the Phantom do? "Don't forget that such a big Phantom still needs you to host it!"
"Can't A Dong just be responsible?" Xiao Ran chuckled and passed the responsibility to Wei Dongling, who was very good at it: "And you, if you are willing, you can let the apprentice you cultivate slowly take over, and you can get away in a few years.
!”
"Are you really willing to give up?" Guan Xin couldn't help but asked after all. This is a business empire with a market value of 300 billion US dollars: "You have spent eleven years, are you so willing to give up your foundation?"
Someone else will take care of it!”
"Master, you don't know Xiao Ran!" Lin Qingxia smiled softly. She remembered that Xiao Ran promised her a long time ago that she must achieve her goal as quickly as possible and then live a free life.
Looking back now, I have really done it.
Guan Xin couldn't help but sigh slightly. Even he couldn't bear to leave this company. Xiao Ran was able to let go at will. This is really something that very few people can do. However, the problem that still confuses everyone is that Xiao Ran can let go at will.
Why retreat unscathed? Judging from the current situation, it would be a miracle that Phantom does not close down. Why retreat?
"It's a pity that A Dong is not here, otherwise it would be perfect!" Xiao Ran sighed softly. Without Wei Dongling, everything about Phantom would be just his own fantasy, just a loft in the sky.
"Wait a minute, Brother Ran, I really want to ask you a question!" Fang Xiaoqiang finally couldn't bear it anymore and wanted to vent his emotions by shouting: "Do you have any way to solve the current predicament, or is everything going to be solved?"
It’s your layout!”
Xiao Ran suddenly laughed out loud. In the eyes of everyone, he smiled more and more happily, and gave an answer without admitting or denying: "You will know when it enters July 1st."
Fang Xiaoqiang and others were immediately horrified, especially those who were familiar with Xiao Ran like Fang Xiaoqiang. Of course they knew that Xiao Ran was the type who acted decisively. This time, when Xiao Ran faced such a crisis, he couldn't help but not avoid it in advance, but turned to Soros.
A letter similar to a challenge was sent, which is really puzzling.
Therefore, Fang Xiaoqiang very much suspected that Xiao Ran had a plan in it, but he couldn't tell it no matter what. This may be his lack of strategy. He remembered what Xiao Ran said to his ear in the morning: "Xiao Fang,
Today I want a big collapse in finance and the stock market that is within your control!”
At that moment, he was sure that Xiao Ran had a countermeasure, but he really couldn't be sure whether all this was a plan. Which fool would spend 80 billion US dollars to set up a plan, that person must be crazy. Therefore, he couldn't be sure
.
Xiao Ran knew very well that all this was indeed very risky. The key to everything was capital. As long as he could get 200 billion US dollars, Soros and the national speculators would definitely suffer an unprecedented defeat this time. Before starting the layout, Xiao Ran himself
I can't believe that I can get 200 billion US dollars, especially after I made up (not lost) more than 70 billion US dollars.
However, if he does not take risks, how can he win stability for Phantom and Hong Kong in the next few years or even ten years. If he does not take risks, it may not be a matter of time for him to deal with Murdoch and Soros. In this fierce battle, he
We must win decisively, and we must fight to level the world.
At this time, seeing that it was almost midnight, it was probably time to lower the flag and raise the flag. Xiao Ran had only obtained the freedom for himself by rejecting the invitation from the British Hong Kong government and the central government. Otherwise, with his status, it would have been impossible
He did not appear at the handover ceremony. Even so, he still had to send a representative to express his support for the central government's takeover of Hong Kong.
This is extremely important. As the most powerful figure recognized in Hong Kong, he can be said to stomp his feet, and the global economy may be shaken several times. If he makes it clear that he does not support the central government, the consequences will be really serious.
It’s hard to predict. First, it will indirectly affect citizens’ perceptions of the central government, and second, it will cause other countries to speak out loud about this matter.
Fortunately, Xiao Ran has stated that he has no political stance over the years, otherwise he would definitely have difficulty arranging his plan tonight! It is not so much an arrangement as it is an execution.
Finally, it was midnight, and even Xiao Ran and the others heard the citizens' collective shouts for the countdown: "Ten, nine... three, two, one! Oh woo..."
"Three, two, one!" Xiao Ran took Lin Qingxia's hand and looked at the city that never sleeps at his feet. He muttered silently, echoing the voices of the citizens! Suddenly, a cry of excitement that could almost shake the world erupted in the whole Hong Kong.
, they do not particularly welcome the central government, but they definitely do not like the British Hong Kong government after the previous one.
"Qingxia, from now on, let me put on a good show for you and kick off a gorgeous prelude to our retirement!" Xiao Ran smiled and raised his cup to clink with the cup Lin Qingxia was holding.
It was filled with strong emotions.
Xiao Ran let go of Lin Qingxia's hand, and he was going to do something. Xiao Ran turned around and looked at Fang Xiaoqiang and the others, and shouted in a deep voice: "Before, it was the moment for the opponent to show off, but from this moment on, it will be the world of Phantom! Everyone
