Chapter 1,262 Who Kills Who?

"Li Zekai, you must help me this time." Lin Feng called Li Zekai, Tang Jiacheng, and Zheng Zhiheng.

This time, Lin Feng planned to acquire at least half of the movie theaters across the United States in one go, so that his theaters would occupy an absolute market share. Anyway, the "Oscar Alliance" headed by "Sony Columbia Pictures" used movie sources to make things difficult for him, so Lin Feng simply decided

Just be ruthless and seize the opportunity to seize the movie theater market. When your own "Forest Cinema Screening Room" has a sufficient market share in the future, you will see how you deal with these "Oscar Alliance" film companies headed by "Sony Columbia Pictures".

However, if they want to acquire so many movie theaters and let their own movie screens account for more than 50% of the US market, it will require a huge amount of funds. Lin Feng and Ellison, even though they are among the top five richest people in the world, can also bear the burden.

No. So far, the two of them have just acquired more than 13,000 movie screens, and they have already spent US$5.2 billion in funds. The two of them are already running out of cash. If they want to continue to acquire, they may have to sell some shares.

.

For Lin Feng and Ellison, selling their shares to buy a movie theater is undoubtedly a bit of a sacrifice. After all, for the two of them, the real main business is still in their respective companies, and it is impossible to sell the company's shares for the sake of a movie theater. At least in the future.

At present, Ellison and Lin Feng are not that crazy. Therefore, finding someone to cooperate is undoubtedly the best way.

Lin Feng approached Li Zekai, Tang Jiacheng and Zheng Zhiheng. The three of them did not consider Lin Feng's request at all. They agreed directly and used the maximum funds the three of them could provide, a total of 1 billion US dollars, to support

Lin Feng.

"Lin, if you need anything this time, tell us. Even if our strength is limited, there is still a family behind us. You must hold on and win this time. Let Hollywood see that we Chinese can also do something that is not inferior."

Hollywood movies." Li Zekai encouraged.

In Li Zekai's view, Lin Feng's entry into Hollywood is something worthy of special mention for the entire Chinese film industry. It is something that all Chinese people should be proud of. If Mrs. Lin Feng wins in the end, then Chinese films will definitely be able to win in Hollywood.

Occupy a certain market share, and with Hollywood as the cornerstone, Chinese-language films can also enter the markets of other countries around the world, unlike now, which only has a certain market in Southeast Asia.

What's more, even if we put aside the development of Chinese-language films, just the fact that the highest film award in the United States is created by a Chinese is enough to make people proud. It is an extremely exciting thing to think about.

Therefore, regarding the problem of insufficient funds for Lin Feng's crazy acquisition of movie theaters, the families behind Li Zekai, Tang Jiacheng, and Zheng Zhiheng also sent a message to the three people, saying that they would fully fund them. On the premise of not hurting the family

Next, we will fully support Lin Feng. Therefore, as long as Lin Feng needs it, the Li family, the Tang family, and the Zheng family will be able to provide a total of approximately US$5 billion in funds at any time.

Of course, as Lin Feng, he would try not to use this huge amount of money as much as possible. When asking Li Zekai and the others for help, Lin Feng owed them a personal favor. In terms of the relationship between Lin Feng and the three of them, this favor Lin Feng

If Feng owes money, he can pay it back. But if he owes favors to the three families behind the three people, then Lin Feng can't afford it. And once family interests are involved, the water will be deep. Lin Feng

Naturally, avoid it if you can.

After looking for financing from Li Zekai and the others, Lin Feng successively approached Zong Qinghou, the president of the "Wahaha Group". However, Zong Qinghou's personal funds were limited. Although the "Wahaha Group" has a net worth of tens of billions of yuan, what it can provide

The capital is only 100 million yuan. This is already the limit of Zong Qinghou's personal ability. If it is more, Zong Qinghou will have to sell his shares in Wahaha.

"Sorry, brother Lin, my abilities are limited." Zong Qinghou also looked ashamed. Li Zekai, Tang Jiacheng and Zheng Zhiheng, three young people in their thirties, were actually able to come up with 1 billion US dollars in funds.

He is a well-known and successful entrepreneur in China, but he can only come up with US$100 million in cash, which really makes him a little ashamed.

"Haha, brother Zong, don't be sorry, you are in the industry. In terms of funds, Richard and the others may be more flexible, but in terms of influence, the three of them combined are not as good as you alone." Lin Feng reassured.

Otherwise, this leader of a Chinese national enterprise may have a shadow in his heart.

Isn't that right? When Zong Qinghou started his own business, Li Zekai and others were still nursing. As a result, now they are willing to spend 1 billion US dollars, and it took a successful person like him to spend 100 million US dollars. This person is really annoying compared to other people.

"Haha, brother Lin, I only have so much ability. But don't worry, as long as the country passes your review of "Hero" and allows it to be released in the country, I will definitely let all the employees of the 'Wahaha Group' go to the cinema to watch it." Zong Qinghou

It's also free and easy. Although it's a bit depressed, I just think about it and let it go.

"Haha, thank you so much, Brother Zong." Lin Feng laughed and hung up the phone.

Domestically, Lin Feng has collected US$1.1 billion in funds. Although it is a lot, it is not enough. At least in Lin Feng's view, it is not enough. If possible, Lin Feng will buy as many movie theaters as he can this time.

Immediately, Lam Feng approached Khoo Teck Puat, the former richest man in Malaysia.

"Mr. Qiu, are you interested in investing in the film industry?" Lin Feng didn't beat around the bush and went straight to the point.

"Mr. Lin, I recently heard that you are very good in the United States. You made 700 million US dollars by selling Facebook. You are really good!" Although Qiu Deba is old, his voice is still like a bell.

"Haha, what a joke. Mr. Qiu, your voice is still full of energy, you are really getting stronger!" Lin Feng sighed.

Last year, Qiu Deba entrusted his 10 or so children to himself, almost like an orphan, so that he could take care of them in the future, so that his business could be preserved and not be ruined. Originally, Lin Feng thought that Qiu Deba was already terminally ill and would do this.

, but now the sound is really loud, and it seems that it will not be a problem to live for another 10 years.

"Haha, Mr. Lin, I hope to accept your good words." Qiu Deba burst into laughter.

After a while of pleasantries, Lin Feng cut the topic to the point again.

"Lin, no problem. I can allocate up to 300 million US dollars in cash to you now, and you don't have to pay it back. Just treat it as a share. This share capital will be regarded as a little benefit I leave to future generations. By the way, in the future, if

When I am no longer here, you will share the profits generated by this fund equally among my 11 children. As for the principal, no matter who wants it, you will not give it to me. Then I will sign a legal document and give it to you." Qiu Deba said.

After thinking about it, I happily decided to finance the "Forest Cinema".

"Then thank you, Mr. Qiu." Lin Feng sighed with emotion. It seems that Qiu Deba's 11 children have been a bit blatant about the large number of Mr. Qiu's inheritance, otherwise Qiu Deba would not have been so prepared for a rainy day.

After saying goodbye to Qiu Deba, although he already had 1.4 billion US dollars in cash, it was still not enough in Lin Feng's opinion. It was still a little short of it. It would be best to raise US$2 billion. After all, Lin Feng didn't know what Ellison would end up doing.

How much cash can you get?

At present, Lin Feng has already borrowed money from people who have enough funds. Although Lin Feng still has some friends, they have too little money in their hands, and Lin Feng really looks down on him. Therefore,

Finally, Lin Feng found Soros, the venture capitalist.

However, even though Soros is so famous and has a huge amount of financial sniping, the funds at hand are really limited, and to be honest, Soros really doesn’t like investing in this kind of industry. But for Lin Feng’s sake, Soros gritted his teeth and took out 200 million US dollars.

.

Finally, counting the US$200 million that Lin Feng received from the family of Samuel Robson-Walton, the president of Wal-Mart, Lin Feng was able to collect US$2 billion.

"Ellison, how are you doing here?" Lin Feng asked.

"No problem. Although I have fewer friends, they are all real friends. I have also collected US$2 billion now." Ellison said with a proud face.

Lin Feng nodded. In fact, based on the current wealth of the two of them, a mere US$2 billion is absolutely nothing. It's just that they don't have enough cash in their hands.

"Well, let's continue the acquisition! As much as we can acquire this time," Lin Feng said firmly.

Ellison nodded heavily. This time, the two of them invested a total of more than 10 billion US dollars, and it was all in cash. This time it was all over the place, so the two of them would definitely put their lives on the line. If they could break the blockade of the "Oscar Alliance"

, then Lin Feng and Ellison’s film companies will be in trouble in the future.

"Well, they are continuing to make acquisitions." Joseph looked solemn.

After the previous round of crazy acquisitions, Lin Feng and Ellison stopped for two days. Originally, Joseph thought that the two of them had no money and might not make any more acquisitions. Unexpectedly, just two days later, Ellison started to make crazy acquisitions again.

.

In a short period of time, Ellison used his power and connections in the United States to finalize the transfer of hundreds of movie theaters, so that the "Forest Cinema Screening Room" has more than 15,000 movie screens, and the acquisition speed is still rapid.

rising.

"Out of the well, what are you going to do?" Joseph asked.

"Joseph, it depends on whether you have the courage. In my opinion, we might as well make Ellison and Lin Feng happy. I want to see how big their appetites are and how many movie theaters they can swallow! I don't believe they can

All the more than 40,000 screens in the United States have been swallowed up." Ibuka said with a look of disdain.

Joseph frowned. Compared to Ibuka, a Japanese, he, an authentic American, knew Ellison quite well. Once this lunatic really became crazy, no one could stand it. He really made him anxious.

, he will really be able to do it by then. Although this will require Ellison to sell a lot of "Oracle" shares, it is not impossible. What's more, there is also Lin Feng among them.

It is really possible for two people to join forces and want to acquire everything. In the end, all the risks will be borne by the two of them. They will only suffer a little loss, which is within the tolerance of both of them.

"Joseph, don't worry too much. You should understand that even if they acquire all the movie theaters, so what? Without our film sources, what will they show? At that time, the daily labor would make them poor. And now

Lin Feng started an 'IT war' and fought hard with 'Google'. If there is a slight gap in Lin Feng's funds, I don't believe that 'Google' and other companies will not take advantage of it. And we will also

We can take advantage of this opportunity to make some money," said Ibuka's analysis.

Josephine nodded after hearing this. Indeed, even if Lin Feng and Ellison acquire all the movie theaters, they will still have to negotiate with them sooner or later. By then, they will occupy the absolute film source, and even if they negotiate, they will still take the initiative. It’s just not like now.

In this way, you can play with the other party. But this is also the worst result.

"Okay, Ibuka, I believe you this time. Let's hold a meeting to discuss it. After all, this matter involves a lot of things. It's better for our film companies to communicate and reach an agreement." Joseph still wanted to hear it.

Listen to the opinions of other company presidents.

Ibuka secretly frowned, thinking that Joseph was too cautious, no, it should be said that he was too timid. This was the time to completely defeat Lin Feng. Lin Feng's investment was so large, if Lin Feng was defeated this time, Lin Feng would lose money.

But it's too big.

After thinking about it, Ibuka called the presidents of several major companies under the "Oscar Alliance" and reached a consensus in advance before the meeting began. After the meeting began, the "Oscar Alliance" quickly reached a consensus to transfer their respective companies to

As many cinemas as possible were sold to Lin Feng and Ellison. Of course, the selling price was 15% higher than the market price.

"Lin Feng, the Oscar Alliance has also begun to sell theaters controlled by their companies. Should we buy it?" Ellison said.

Lin Feng was stunned. He didn't expect that the "Oscar Alliance" would actually sell the movie theaters in its hands. Aren't they afraid that after taking control of all the movie theaters, they would block their movies? But after thinking about it, Lin Feng understood. This is the "Oscar Alliance"

This is a "cramming" strategy adopted by the "Alliance". They are sure that they and others do not have enough funds to complete these acquisitions. At the same time, they are sure that the film sources they control will make the cinemas of themselves and others have no film sources at all.

Huh, if that's the case, you're wrong! - Lin Feng snorted coldly.

"Ellison, continue the acquisition! Now that this acquisition drama has begun, it can't stop. Let's see if our capital chain is broken and collapse, or if they are sucked dry by us and collapse!" Lin Feng snorted coldly.
