Chapter 298 The successor of Namei Entertainment Company

In the next two days, Sanyo Headhunting Company helped Namei Entertainment find several successors.

Yang Chaoye personally interviewed, and the last candidate who had served as chief operating officer of Paramount Pictures was successfully selected.

Alfred Tom, 46 years old, has worked at Paramount Pictures for 21 years and has served as department head, branch general manager, chief operating officer of the parent company, etc.

Alfred Tom's career was very simple, almost all at Paramount Pictures, so he had a deep understanding of the film company.

A year ago, there was a big conflict with the company's biggest contracted actor.

The big-name contracted actor directly made a public statement that Paramount Pictures has him without me, and me without him!
Ultimately the company chose to support the cast, and Alfred Thom was forced to leave Paramount Pictures.

In the eyes of Paramount Pictures' board of directors, the company's interests come first.

Although Alfred Tom is very talented, the position of chief operating officer can be replaced by others.

But the biggest contracted actors cannot be replaced by others.

The influence of every top artist is huge.

The board of directors of Paramount Pictures did not want to lose this cash cow, so Alfred Tom naturally became the object of abandonment.

Just like Namei Entertainment, if Linda Ronstadt was lost before Sioux City took over, the market value of Namei Entertainment would be at least halved.

This is the awesomeness of top stars.

Over the past year, Alfred Tom has submitted many resumes, but has heard nothing from them.

The reason is that these companies are afraid to use Alfred Tom for fear of offending the star.

Therefore, although he takes the recruitment of Namei Entertainment Company very seriously, he does not have high hopes for it.

Unexpectedly, Yang Chaoye took a fancy to his talent and was not afraid of offending the top Hollywood actor and star.

Su Cheng naturally had no objection at all to the talents recognized by Yang Chaoye. After a brief meeting and chat with Alfred Tom in person, he directly asked Zhang Qizheng and Yang Chaoye to hand over to the new successor.

As a result, Alfred Tom was directly appointed by Sioux City as the new CEO of Namei Entertainment.

As for the position of chairman, of course it is still held by Su Cheng.

Even if he is about to leave the beautiful country, it is not a problem.

Because today's Na'mei Entertainment is strictly a private company, and it is not a problem for Su Cheng to be the boss.

Today is already October 10th, and the time to come to Beautiful Country is not short, so Su Cheng plans to go back in two days.

The reason why we are eager to go back is very simple: it is still an oil problem.

These days, Sioux City is very concerned about the changes in world oil.

Japan, South Korea, Australia, Europe and other places have begun to panic about oil consumption, and the government has begun to call on everyone to save oil.

Because, with today's crude oil prices, rapid price increases are only a minor problem.

After all, no matter how high crude oil prices rise, consumers will ultimately bear the price, not dealers.

The biggest problem is that it is really short of fuel.

After Persia stopped exporting crude oil, crude oil supply began to run out.

In a short period of time, this problem will not be a big problem.

But as time went by, the impact of Sioux City's early dips in crude oil inventories of various countries began to appear.

Since the inventory is almost gone, everyone who wants oil can only extract it now.

How can the speed of oil production compare with the speed of oil consumption in various countries?

As a result, the oil gap is getting bigger and bigger.Today, the oil market is short of 500 million barrels of oil.

Tomorrow, the oil market will be short of 600 million barrels of oil.

The day after tomorrow, the oil market is short of 800 million barrels of oil.

This is how the vicious cycle begins.

The world is experiencing an increasing shortage of oil, which is why world crude oil prices continue to rise almost every day.

At this time, Su Cheng was sitting in the office of the chairman of Namei Entertainment Company, holding a newspaper in his hand.

And on the desk, there are a dozen different newspapers.

These newspapers all reported international energy news and were bought by Su Cheng.

"Los Angeles Morning News" reported: Nearly one-third of Japan's cars have no fuel, and there are fewer and fewer cars on Tokyo's bustling and congested highways. Affected by this, Japan's transportation industry has almost stagnated, which has indirectly affected all walks of life. lost heavily.

"California Business Daily" reported that due to the energy crisis, nearly half of the British fishing boats were unable to go to sea, and seafood prices doubled.

The New York Times reported: Due to the reduction in oil imports, many means of transportation in Australia stopped working, making travel difficult, and hundreds of thousands of kangaroos were slaughtered by citizens who were short of food.

"California Daily" reported: South Korean historians have discovered ancient Goguryeo ceramics in Saudi Arabia. After investigation, they believe that the territory of ancient Goguryeo must have reached as far as the Middle East. As its former homeland, the oil in the Middle East should belong to South Korea. Mining.

……

The impact of the oil shortage is beginning to be revealed.

Today, the price of crude oil has risen to $33.8 a barrel.

This price has already made Su Cheng a huge profit.

However, Su Cheng only smiled slightly when he looked at the information in the newspaper.

Although it has already earned more than 20 US dollars per barrel, Sioux City will not be so easily satisfied.

According to the information provided by Xiao Ai, in the previous world, even if there were no people like Su Cheng to interfere with bargain hunting, the price could rise to more than 40 US dollars.

In this world, the excess production of major oil-producing countries has almost been bought and hoarded by Sioux City. The impact will definitely be greater, and the price will definitely be higher.

40 US dollars is definitely not the highest, and it is even possible for 50 US dollars or 60 US dollars a barrel.

Oil is the lifeblood of every country's economy.

If there is a shortage of oil, the economy will definitely be greatly affected.

Moreover, in today's era, there are not many energy alternatives like in later generations.

For example, solar energy, wind energy, nuclear energy, tidal energy, etc. have not been utilized as well as in later generations.

Therefore, the importance of oil cannot be replaced.

Su Cheng read all the newspapers before putting down the last one with a smile.

Crisis is opportunity, and for him, this is also an important turning point in development.

What does the disaster caused by the energy crisis have to do with him?

As long as he can make money, it’s none of his business if others lose money!
Since he decided to go back in two days, Su Cheng was naturally ready to go back and quickly told Zhang Qizheng, Yang Chaoye and others about this decision.

Naturally, they don't care about this. Anyway, the affairs of Namei Entertainment Company are still being handed over.

In fact, there was nothing to hand over, because when Zhang Qizheng took over the management of the company, there was no one to hand over to him. He had to understand it bit by bit.

Now, Alfred Tom has someone to take care of him, so it's okay.
