Start from 1980

Chapter 303

The reporting on The Washington Post is simple.

"Several TV stations under 20th Century Fox and Metropolis Media Company changed their owners overnight, and their employees jokingly said: They woke up overnight and found that the world had changed, and the buyer came from the mysterious East. Will this mysterious buyer bring Hollywood? What big change?"

"Is the consecutive simultaneous acquisition of several TV stations owned by 20th Century Fox and Metropolis Media a new reform for Hollywood?"

"Reporters from this newspaper interviewed several film companies, including Paramount and Universal Pictures, and expressed that they were not clear about this matter..."

This newspaper did not exaggerate the yellow peril theory, probably because of Su Chen's [-] million yuan.

Su Chen didn't care about what was written in the newspaper. He had to meet people tomorrow, so he didn't have time to deal with these things.

Calculating the time, I have stayed in Hollywood for a long time, and I can almost go back to Boston. After all, there is no holiday yet, and I asked for leave.

Although other film companies felt that Su Chen's acquisition of so many properties might be because there was too much money to spend, but Milton felt regretful.

Because he thought that Su Chen didn't have much money, that's why he thought of using the office building as a mortgage to cooperate with Su Chen.

In the end, Su Chen turned around and bought 20th Century Fox and those few TV stations directly.

Although he didn't get the real news that the buyer was Su Chen, but when he heard that they were all purchased by the same person, Milton was 100% sure that it must be Su Chen.

Milton glanced at the secretary beside him and said, "It seems that we are really wrong. No wonder people have no interest in our company at all. It seems that they just stopped by to see our company."

At this time, Milton is even more lonely than before, because New Horizons is really about to close.

But having said that, Su Chen really doesn't have much interest in New Horizons.

……

After resting overnight, he and Clara went to 20th Century Fox.

To meet Tom Rothman and Chris Wedge today, as well as Barry Diller, naturally it is impossible to be in the hotel.

Alan Ladd Jr., who had already received the news, had been waiting long ago.

Apart from him, there was no one else, because Su Chen didn't want to be surrounded by people like a gorilla.

"Boss, isn't this scene a bit shabby?" Alan Ladd Jr. asked jokingly.

Su Chen glanced at him with great interest, and said, "Dude, next time I come here, if there are 40 beauties, divided into two groups to receive me, I will like it very much."

"Boss is a good idea, so I will arrange it like this next time." Alan Ladd Jr. laughed.

The old man Clara blinked: "Although I am a bit old, I feel that I can do it."

Su Chen and Alan Ladd Jr. couldn't help but despise him.

Old shameless.

A few people greeted each other and went straight to the office.

Going to the office, Alan Ladd Jr. ordered his secretary to prepare a few cups of coffee, and sat down to drink coffee while chatting.

After a while, the secretary announced that Barry Diller was coming.

Alan Ladd Jr. hurriedly asked the secretary to invite Barry Diller in.

Su Chen and him stood inside the door and waited.

As soon as he came in, Barry Diller was also taken aback when he saw the three people standing and waiting in the room, and hurriedly stretched out his hand: "Mr. Ladd, Mr. Su."

"Mr. Diller, welcome to our 20th Century Fox." Alan Ladd Jr. smiled and said, "Please take a seat."

After sitting down, Su Chen got straight to the point: "Dude, do you have any thoughts on my proposal?"

"Mr. Su, what I want to know is, since you want me to be the president of the TV network, does the TV network take orders from you, or does everything go through the board of directors?" Barry Diller asked earnestly.

This question is very sharp, he doesn't want to ask the board of directors about everything once he comes in.

Su Chen said: "Just follow my orders, you have absolute control over the TV network, and at the same time, once you join the job, then I promised you 6% of the TV network shares will be honored, and you can sign the document immediately."

"Then I am willing to join."

In fact, Barry Diller is also considering Su Chen's previous proposal these days. Although Su Chen said that he would give him 6% of the shares of the TV network, Su Chen did not buy the TV network at that time, which sounds a bit dreamy.

In addition, he also needs to investigate what kind of person Su Chen is before he can make a decision.

"Thank you for joining." Su Chen stretched out his hand with a smile: "I hope our cooperation will be very pleasant in the future."

Clara on the side handed over a contract, and Barry Diller took a serious look at it, and after confirming that there was no problem, he signed his name.

This is just an entry contract and a share agreement. As he said, Su Chen gave Barry Diller 6% of the TV network shares.

After seeing this agreement, the stone in Barry Diller's heart fell.

"Dude, when can you come to work?" Su Chen asked.

Barry Diller said: "Boss, I can come to work tomorrow, believe me, I will be able to set up the TV network soon, and it will make your 6% shares feel worthwhile."

"Okay, then we'll wait to see your ability." Su Chen responded with a smile.

Suddenly there was a knock on the door, and Alan Ladd Jr. said, "Come in."

As soon as he finished speaking, his secretary pushed the door in and said, "President, two people came outside and said that you had an appointment with them. One is Tom Rothman and the other is Chris Wedge."

Hearing this, Alan Ladd Jr. hurriedly said, "Please invite them in."

Speaking of which, it was a coincidence that these two people met in the lobby. After all, the circle is so big, it is not surprising that the two know each other.

The only strange thing was why Alan Ladd Jr. had asked them both at the same time.

Led by the secretary, the two came to the office.

When I saw Barry Diller, I was surprised again.

"Mr. Rudd, Mr. Diller, and both gentlemen, good morning."

"Good morning, gentlemen."

Tom Rothman and Chris Wedge greeted each other.

"Good morning."

Alan Ladd Jr. said: "Two, please sit down."

After the two sat down, Tom Rothman asked curiously: "I don't know if Mr. Ladd has an appointment with us at the same time?"

"No, I'm not the one who asked you to meet, I'm just an intermediary, and the one who actually asked you to meet is my new boss." Alan Ladd Jr. pointed at Su Chen, and said, "This is our new boss of 20th Century Fox, Mr Su."

Hearing this, the two hurriedly stretched out their hands.

"Hello, Mr. Su."

"Hello, Mr. Su."

Tom Rothman and Chris Wedge did not expect that the legendary person who bought 20th Century Fox and several TV stations was the young Chinese in front of them.

Surprised, very surprised.

After all, Su Chen was too young.

Su Chen shook hands with them in turn, and then asked, "May I ask, are you Tom Rothman?"

Everyone's foreheads turned black in an instant. They thought Su Chen would know them, but he didn't expect to know them.

Chris Wedge, who was held by Su Chen, also had a black line, and said a little embarrassedly: "Mr. Su, I am Chris Wedge, and this is Tom Rothman."

Su Chen nodded and said: "Sorry, I didn't recognize it for a while, you two, my time is limited, so I will make a long story short.

I would like to invite two people to join the DreamWorks Group, Mr. Wedge in charge of the computer animation department I just acquired, and Tom Rothman in charge of an independent distribution company that is about to be formed. "

Tom Rothman and Chris Wedge are once again in the circle...
