117. Buy Paramount

After finalizing the cooperation with Jack, Tang Wen is ready to make some big moves. In order not to let people know that he is doing something unreliable and the Jialed family, Tang Wen has poached a lot of "madman" traders from Wall Street this time.

Of course, his goal is not only unreliable but also Jia Lide, Tang Wen's goal is Paramount Pictures.

It is no secret that Viacom, the parent company of Paramount Pictures, has been in frequent contact with investors recently. It is reported that Viacom's parent company is willing to sell 40% of the shares at a price of $1.7 billion.

Tang Wen is not satisfied with 40% of the shares, he needs 60% absolute control.

"Tell Viacom's parent company 3 billion in cash and I want 60% of Paramount's shares." Tang Wen called Zhou Xu and ordered.

"Boss, it is estimated that Lei Shi, Viacom's parent company, will not agree." Zhou Xu replied cautiously.

"Disagree? Tell him that if you don't agree, that's the best thing to do. Shorting Viacom's parent company will get more profit." Tang Wen said with squinting eyes.

Zhou Xu was taken aback for a moment, and then he thought that the boss was not joking about poaching a group of Wall Street lunatics. With the support of Morgan and Rockefeller, Tang Wen's $30 billion capital can leverage up to 300 billion dollars. Bullying a Lei Shi is not the same as playing.

The current market value of Viacom's parent company is only about 80 billion US dollars. If Tang Wen wants to short him, it should not be too simple. Such a company's liquidity generally does not exceed 1 billion.

Not to mention the film company Paramount.

You must know that Tang Wen still has 16.8 billion US dollars in cash on the books of Amex Bank, and Morgan Bank has more than 21 billion in cash (after spending 4 billion on Scarlet Sabre, he won the income of the mine.)

Not counting Tang Wen's 15 billion dollar long gold knife at Shenlong Bank, Tang Wen can mobilize as much as 37.8 billion dollars, not to mention that if Tang Wen takes gold as collateral, he can easily borrow 20 billion US dollars.

However, Tang Wen does not plan to use the money that was used for long gold this time. You must know that if the money is lost in Shenlong Bank, it can bring Tang Wen several million dollars in income every day. The total amount of money saved every month is 518.4 million Huaxia coins, which is more than 78 million in US dollars.

"Tell the people on Wall Street to use 6 billion guaranteed funds to find Morgan with 5 times leverage. If you can't agree, then short Viacom for me." Tang Wen said with a smile.

"Yes boss." Zhou Xu replied forcefully.

He first went to the people on Wall Street to explain the situation, and then called Lei Shi to say that he had something to visit him. Because it was someone from Morgan who was the lead, Lei Shi still planned to meet the chief lawyer of the WF Group.

Lei Shi is now 89 years old, but he has no plans to let go. Caused his daughter in her 60s to fight with him in court.

Lei Shi was a little puzzled about the person introduced by the Morgan family, or he always felt a little dangerous.

"Hello, Mr. Lei, I am Zhou Xu, the chief lawyer of WF Group." After meeting Lei Shi in the chairman's office, Zhou Xu first introduced himself in English.

"Mr. Zhou, what are you doing here this time?" Lei Shi seemed to be an old man at dusk, but the gleam in his eyes from time to time showed that he was a shrewd person.

"Then I'll get straight to the point. Mr. Lei, our boss is willing to buy 60% of Paramount's shares with $3 billion. We also ask Mr. Lei for your support." Zhou Xu said frankly.

"Dreaming, this is impossible. Paramount can't be sold." Lei Shi's eyes widened suddenly, the boss said angrily.

"Sorry, Mr. Lei, I'm just letting you know on behalf of our boss. In addition, our boss said that if you don't agree, then he has prepared 30 billion funds to short Viacom's parent company." Zhou Xu smiled He said, but in Lei Shi's eyes, he is simply a devil.

"By the way, Mr. Lei, our boss has reached a cooperation with Morgan Bank, and will start a 10-fold leverage to short Viacom's parent company. We can continue to discuss this issue when we hold a shareholders' meeting."

Looking at Lei Shi who was dazed, Zhou Xu took out a business card and put it on the table and said, "Mr. Lei, you have one day to think about it. Call me when you're ready."

Zhou Xu, who turned to leave, suddenly turned around and said, "By the way, please hurry up, our boss's temper is not very good." After speaking, he turned his head and left.

Lei Shi panted and looked at the business card on the table, and the assistant next to him quickly took the medicine prescribed by the doctor and handed it over.

"Bastard, **** is deceiving people too much." Lei Shi scolded angrily.

After thinking about it, Lei Shi still called his "friend" Buffett and touched the bottom of the WF Group first.

"Warren, do you know WF Group?" Lei Shi asked straight to the point after the call was connected.

"What's wrong? You messed with them?" Buffett Warren asked in surprise.

Lei Shi smiled bitterly: "They came to me and offered 3 billion to buy 60% of Paramount's shares."

Buffett on the other end of the phone was silent for a moment and then sighed: "Give it to them, you can't beat them."

"What did you say?" Lei Shi couldn't believe it.

Buffett persuaded: "Listen to me, if you don't want to go bankrupt, you'd better listen to them. These people are crazy, you know? They are crazy."

Buffett made a point of emphasizing this on Mad Men.

"What's the meaning?"

"Do you know about the Hong Kong financial turmoil some time ago?" Buffett said calmly.

"Well, I heard that you also made a fortune in it." Lei Shi heard a little about this.

"Do you know how the storm came about?"

"How come?" Lei Shi asked.

"It was provoked by the WF Group. They used the 20 billion security deposit to embezzle more than 100 billion US dollars of funds to bloodbath the Hong Kong Li and the European market." Buffett said bitterly.

"100 billion? How is it possible, who gave them leverage?" Lei Shi said suspiciously.

"Accept the reality, Lei, you must know that his WF group is worth 20 billion US dollars before it goes public. It is said that his liquidity is more than 50 billion, and he can use any bank of Morgan and Rockefel at any time. Double leverage." Buffett sighed.

"And just yesterday, Morgan's heir, Jack, warmly invited him to the family as a guest."

"Morgan? Rockfield?" Lei Shi suddenly felt powerless when he heard these two names. No matter how popular he is in the media world, in front of Rockefeller and the Morgan family, he is an ant who can be pinched to death at any time.

"I see, thank you." Lei Shi hung up the phone feebly. Originally, he wanted to find Buffett as his white knight, but after listening to Buffett's words, he understood that if the WF group attacked him.

That means that Morgan and Rockefeller attacked him, and he knew the power of the top family. His fate can only be one, and that is to be swallowed.

Weakly picked up the phone left by Zhou Xu and dialed it.

"Mr. Zhou, if you win Paramount, it's yours."

Early the next morning, WF Group's acquisition of 60% of Paramount's shares in Viacom's parent company spread throughout Hollywood, and it was learned that WF Group is Didi Bike, Didi Takeaway, and Didi D-Car After the founding company, the cooperative capital began to brag like crazy.

The valuation of WF Group has also soared. Seeing the skyrocketing valuations, Goldman Sachs and Sequoia are even more publicized. Morgan's side is also very hard at promoting because of the shared deposit.

For a while, the valuation of WF Group has skyrocketed from the recent US$20 billion to US$28 billion, and it can break through 30 billion at any time.

Tang Wen really didn't care about this, he was worried now.

That's right, Hua Yuhan, this crazy woman, is chasing after him again. Looking at Hua Yuhan, who was squinting and showing a playful smile, Tang Wen couldn't be happy.

But what's different from before is that she put on a pitiful look, a look of crying if you dare to scold me.

Tang Wen was very puzzled by this. He stayed at the five-star Waldorf Astoria Beverly Hills Hotel in Beverly Hills without telling anyone, and he did not know how Hua Yuhan found him.

"Damn it, you're really a dog-skin plaster? I've run all the way from New York to Los Angeles, and it didn't get rid of you? I just want to know how did you find me?" Tang Wen supported The slightly blackened forehead was speechless.

"No." Hua Yuhan proudly raised his mobile phone Tang Wen saw the news with the headline "WF Group successfully won 60% of Paramount Pictures".

"That's it?" Tang Wen wondered.

"Can't people guess?" Hua Yuhan raised her chest arrogantly and said.

In fact, it was a coincidence that Hua Yuhan, who lost Tang Wen, wanted to come to the Beverly Hills villa bought by his brother to relax, and happened to see the scene where Zhou Xu, who helped Tang Wen with errands, gave Morgan Jack.

So she quietly followed Zhou Xu to the place where Tang Wen lived. Because she was a resident of Beverly Hills, Tang Wen's bodyguard just paid a little attention to her.

JA saw that she was ambiguous with the boss, and chose to ignore it. He knew the boss's "female relationship", so he stopped the bodyguards from coming forward to ask.

So there was a scene where Hua Yuhan came to the Waldorf Astoria Beverly Hills five-star hotel in Beverly Hills to block Tang Wen.

"Come on, are you crazy woman in debt?" Tang Wen felt that he was about to lose control of his confidant.

"Then kiss me, it's the first time I'm afraid of pain." Hua Yuhan said with a pitiful look, pulling at the corner of Tang Wen's clothes.

"Damn, you said it yourself, even if the immortals came today, they can't save you." Tang Wen carried the shocked Hua Yuhan and walked towards the room without saying a word.

"Ah, ah, help."

"I'm just kidding."

"You, let me go."

"Please don't make trouble, let me go."

Seeing Tang Wen's seriousness, Hua Yuhan immediately panicked and began to beg for mercy.

"It's too late, I said that the gods can't save you today." Tang Wen slapped her buttocks hard.
