Reverse Rebirth 1990

Chapter 507 519 [Panman]

"Haha, are you waiting for this call?" Nakao Kimura pointed at Song Zhichao, his face full of sarcasm, "I really don't know what you are thinking! Do you think a phone call can turn you around?"

Song Zhichao shrugged: "Maybe...it's really possible!"

"Hahaha!" Kimura laughed.

Steve smiled.

Tanaka-kun and the others also laughed.

In their view, Song Zhichao was simply a fool who opened his eyes and told lies.

"Okay, okay, just answer your call, I want to see how you turn around. But I can tell you first, we at Sony have already greeted many Hollywood film companies and music companies, and no one will Provide you with resources in this area, yes, no one! Do you know why? Because they are our friends and have a very good cooperative relationship with us!" Nakao Kimura sneered, "Of course, you can also spend sky-high prices to Buy their movie and music copyrights, and then record them into VCD discs, but then your cost will increase significantly——by then, even the money you make from selling VCDs may have to be lost!"

Nakao Kimura felt that he had grasped Song Zhichao's weakness, and his analysis was logical.

Steve even added fuel to the side: "Yes, dear Mr. Kimura is right, there are many movie and music copyrights in Hollywood, but those don't belong to you! Do you know why? Because you are Chinese, we here The most distrustful are the Chinese!"

Song Zhichao had a peaceful face and was not at all irritated by them. He picked up the phone and listened to a few words, then raised his head and said to Steve, "Are you the CEO of Sony Entertainment?"

Steve didn't understand why Song Zhichao asked this, and raised his head proudly: "Yes!"

"Oh, then please answer the phone." Song Zhichao smiled and handed over the big brother in his hand.

Steve: "..."

Nakao Kimura next to him also looked suspicious, not understanding what Song Zhichao was doing.

"Why, don't you dare? Are you afraid that I have some conspiracy?" Song Zhichao slapped Steve with the phone.

Steve: "..." He answered the phone.

"Hi, I'm Steve, who are you?" Steve's voice was very loud and horizontal.

Then--
His face changed.

Astonishment, surprise, disbelief—all kinds of expressions appeared on his face in turn.

Finally, form an expression --- "Damn it!"

"Oh, hell!" Steve dropped the phone and looked at Song Zhichao in surprise.

"What happened, Steve?" Nakao Kimura asked hurriedly when he saw Steve's expression was wrong.

Steve didn't seem to hear it, he still looked like a hell, stuck in place.

"Hey, Steve, what's the matter?" Nakao Kimura couldn't bear it any longer, and reached out to shake Steve's shoulder.

Only then did Steve suddenly wake up, his sluggish eyeballs moved, and then handed the phone to Kimura Road: "Here you--you will know after listening."

Nakao Kimura: "..."

Tanaka-kun, Honda-kun and others next to him were also puzzled, wondering if this ghost was bewitched?It's so weird.

Kimura Nakao didn't care too much, he answered the phone quickly, and then said to the phone: "I'm Kimura Nakao, may I ask..."

Then, Nakao Kimura's expression also changed.

Be amazed.

To be precise, his gaze is like that of a sun-kissed husky-holding a phone, his mouth is wide open, and his eyes are wide open.

Tanaka-kun and a group of Japanese next to him were all inexplicable and had a weird feeling.

The Hollywood stars watching were stunned, not knowing what happened to the Japanese.

Mike looks at Madonna, and Madonna looks at Beyoncé.

Marlon Brando also shrugged inexplicably.

The others, Peterson, Bata and others, were even more inexplicable, not knowing what happened to the Japanese.

"Hey, old Bi, you are the smartest. What did brother Chao do? How did you pass a phone call and make these little Japanese crazy?" Qi Wanda touched Bi Wenfeng and couldn't help asking.

Bi Wenfeng shook his head: "You and I can't guess the boss's means—I'm afraid those Japanese can't guess either."

Yes, at this moment, Nakao Kimura did not guess that this call was actually made by his immediate boss - "King of Sony" Akio Morita.

On the phone, Akio Morita explained to him one thing very briefly and quickly, that is --- he has promised Song Zhichao that he is going to sell Sony Entertainment to Song Zhichao's Phantom Entertainment for 50 billion US dollars!
This news was definitely a "bolt from the blue" for Kimura and Steve.

When did Song Zhichao hook up with his boss Akio Morita?
When did they get in touch?He was an enemy, so how could he suddenly become a business partner?

It's not that they don't understand, it's that the change came too fast.

Looking at Kimura and the others who were still surprised, Song Zhichao had to smile at the curious Mike, Madonna, Marlon Brando and the others, and announced, "Sorry, I just got the news - I bought Sony Entertainment." !"

With a bang, all the Hollywood superstars on the scene exploded.

……

In fact, since Song Zhichao started the war with Sony, Song Zhichao has been studying the "King of Sony" Akio Morita's entry into Hollywood, taking the high-end route of matching audio and video resources and electronic products.

On the face of it, this line is very correct.

Sony's electronic products, such as Walkmans and VCRs, are very good and sell very well all over the world.

Sales of videotapes and music cassettes are also booming these days, with strong profit margins.

Originally, Akio Morita's plan was to acquire Columbia, a Hollywood company, for US$60 billion, and then form Sony Entertainment, including Sony Music and Sony Pictures.

Under Sony's control, while making movies to make money, Sony's film and music copyrights are transformed into video tapes and music cassettes, which are sold together with Sony's Walkmans and VCRs.In this way, the overall profit can be maximized.

Originally the plan was perfect and great.

But Akio Morita ignored a question --- why did Columbia agree to be acquired by Sony?
You know, Americans are very proud, especially as one of the seven major Hollywood film companies, Columbia is also a very brilliant symbol, symbolizing the pride and glory of the United States-how can such a symbol be included in the Japanese pocket ?
There is actually only one reason, and that is: losing money!

Don’t think that making movies in Hollywood can make money—on the contrary, it is precisely because the competition in Hollywood movies is so fierce that many companies make money and lose money, and Columbia has broken this curse because it Losing money all the time.

Before Sony bought Columbia, the company actually had $16 billion in debt.For a listed film entertainment company, Columbia's investment failures for three consecutive years-especially the investment failures of big-name movies, made them unable to bear the reprimand of shareholders anymore. At this time, Sony appeared to publicly purchase shares In the form of directly merging the Columbia company with 34 billion US dollars, plus assuming the 16 billion US dollars of debt borne by Columbia, Sony actually spent 50 billion US dollars to control Columbia——of course, in order to demonstrate the powerful strength of Sony , Sony announced that the acquisition of Sony spent 60 billion US dollars.

When the acquisition was just completed, Sony’s entire staff, including Sony’s king Akio Morita, was extremely excited, and even the whole of Japan was extremely excited—after all, Columbia represented the pride of the United States, but now, the Japanese even took the pride of the Yankees. To buy.

The Americans, on the other hand, mourned in silence as if mourning their concubine.

But soon, Akio Morita couldn't get excited anymore.

Because he found that Colombia is simply a black hole swallowing money.

Not to mention not making money, from [-] to now, it has suffered huge losses every year for three full years!
As a result, the money Sony earned in other areas had to be moved to fill this black hole.According to statistics, within three years, Sony Corporation paid a full US$13 billion in advance in order to even out Colombia's losses and debts.

In other words, after Sony acquired Columbia, not only did it not make money, but it also lost 13 billion!

Akio Morita has a big head.

At this moment, how much he yearns for God to throw him a "taker"!

At this time, Song Zhichao appeared!
