Chapter 789 Acquisition Exposed

In the next two days, the media continued to report that Teresa Teng was wronged at the Grammys.

Originally, it was not surprising for a Chinese to be wronged in the United States. Under normal circumstances, the American media would not offend the country's authoritative awards because of Teresa Teng.

But this time is different.

"Hand in Hand" sung by Teresa Teng has been confirmed as the theme song of the 1984 Los Angeles Olympics. It was specially created by Jun for the Olympics. Teresa Teng's personal performance is full of blessings for the Olympics.

In a certain way, "Hand in Hand" has become the pride of the United States, and Teresa Teng has become one of the most popular singers in the United States.

Not only in the United States, but also in the European continent, Teresa Teng has many fans. This time Grammy's wanton behavior has made countries like the United Kingdom and France, which are not pleased with the United States, take advantage of this opportunity to make big moves. The article denounced the United States as lacking fairness and justice.

The relationship between the United States and its European distant relatives is very complicated. They love and hate each other, love and kill each other... but they can still be regarded as a family.

If the European media yelled, but their own people didn't say anything at all, something was really wrong. Therefore, the local American media could only actively start to criticize Grammy.

From ancient times to the present, for most people, the more shameless a person is, the better his life is.

This is the current posture of the Grammy organizing committee.

Apart from issuing routine statements, saying that they are a fair and open platform, they will just act like ostriches for the rest. Anyway, I won’t respond to whatever you scold you.

This makes the media and the audience a little frustrated.

You have to have someone to quarrel with. If you don't have someone to fight with, how can you scold someone to your heart's content?

What's more, Teresa Teng didn't accept interviews at all. She just hid in her villa and didn't come out. Reporters couldn't do anything to fan the flames.

In fact, Grammy is already regretting it now.

They didn't expect it to be so big.

Looking at it now, whenever people mention "Hand in Hand", they will definitely pull out the Grammy and give it a beating - 1984 was the Olympic Games, and "Hand in Hand" will slowly disappear after that time. Topic, in these 3 years, it will be mentioned often!

Thinking of being scolded in three years, the organizing committee officials who made this decision were cursed thousands of times by countless people.

Fortunately, this is not the only news in the United States.

For example, at this time, the "Boston Morning News" broke another shocking news.

"The mysterious Mr. Jun, the winner of the Grammy Award for Best Composition and Teresa's employer, has completed the acquisition of United Artists Film Company! He is close to successfully acquiring the Disney Company!!"

Not to be outdone, the "Chicago Tribune" directly broke the news that Yin Jun had reached an agreement with Southern Company to purchase the rights and interests of all 7-11 except for the United States, Japan, and Taiwan.

Readers were suddenly surprised when they saw this.

In their eyes, a talented Oriental person only has an impression of "Wow, he's so awesome", and he won't actually integrate into the mainstream.

Had Teresa Teng not sang "Hand in Hand", a song that Americans are proud of, she would not have been accepted by the mainstream in the United States.

But!

He was originally just a talented young man, but suddenly turned into a super rich man who spent more than 3 billion US dollars to acquire three American companies without blinking an eye. This makes Americans feel completely different. Same!

For a time, Americans had a strong interest in Yin Jun. This interest was not only because of Deng Lijun, but because of Yin Jun himself.

Therefore, the "Los Angeles Times" simply made a special report on Yin Jun's life trajectory starting from February 16, 1978.

Los Angeles has the largest number of Chinese people, and Xiangjiang people account for one-third of them, so many people know Yin Jun’s experience of making a fortune.

After comprehensive understanding and comparison by the reporters, they finally came up with a more pertinent and not so radical growth trajectory.

But even so, the fact that Yin Jun started to work alone at the age of 16 and created such a large world in Hong Kong still makes all Americans who have watched this album dumbfounded.

They feel that Yin Jun's experience of making a fortune is very familiar. Isn't this the American dream they have been promoting?

A poor boy with nothing came to the city from the countryside, and through his own hard work, he became one of the richest people... This is completely a model show!

Americans are good at this. They will envy the rich, but few will envy or even hate the rich.

At such a young age, Yin Jun has built such a large family business, and now he has even come to the United States.

What they felt more was, this little guy is really good! awesome! I want to learn from him too!

…

The newspaper broke the news, something that Yin Jun had expected.

But he didn't know that even before the business deal was finished, the news was spreading in the streets of the United States. It seemed that the gossip reporters in the United States were also pervasive.

At this time, the contract between Kirin Group and Southern Company has been reached. Although the second part of the payment will not be paid off until six months later, the shares of 7-11 have already been in the hands of Yin Jun, and 7-11 Company has officially Incorporated into Kirin Group.

But apart from this brand, Yin Jun basically has nothing to say - the employees and stores in the United States still belong to Southern Company, just like 7-11 in Japan and Baodao, and have nothing to do with Yin Jun. nothing.

United Artists Film Company has already discussed it, and now they are just investigating and cleaning up some assets. It is expected that a contract will be signed within three to five days.

Disney, a listed company, is in some trouble, but with the efforts of Goldman Sachs and its partners, Kirin Group has mastered more than 70% of Disney's shares. No one can reverse Yin Jun's inevitable decision to take over Disney.

Even the nephew of Mr. Disney and the current head of the company is very reluctant and even goes around to instigate and win over shareholders, but it is of no use.

Firstly, the shares held by the Disney family have plummeted to less than 5%; secondly, since the death of his uncle, this guy who talks empty words but has no talent has made Disney a mess, and the shareholders have long been miserable. Now, If there is an opportunity to cash out at a high price and leave the market, who will care about him?

Precisely because all three acquisitions have been completed or are coming to an end, the news reported by newspapers is basically correct and far less eye-catching than it would have been twenty years later.

When it comes to American newspapers, they actually still have basic credibility.

Especially the big newspapers, they take great care of their feathers.

That is, the New York Times, which was to cheer for the second time the United States launched an angry attack on Iraq. However, it found nothing related to biological weapons, so it discarded the article that its founder risked more than a hundred years ago. Risking his life, he impeached the then mayor of New York City.

Now that reporters have exposed it, Yin Jun stopped writing songs at home to accompany his wife and took a car to Disney's headquarters.

Disney's headquarters is in the small town of Burbank in Los Angeles County, not far from Teresa Teng's villa.

Since I told Disney's management in advance that Yin Jun would come, when the car arrived, a large group of people were already waiting at the door of the company.

Today's Disney headquarters is far less grand and spectacular than the photos Yin Jun saw online in 2020. It is just a slightly larger office building, and it also looks a bit old.

The person with the highest position who came to greet Yin Jun was Disney's Vice President Perez. According to him, he casually said that both President Roy Disney and Executive Vice President Ray Miller had left the company for other matters, so they could not meet.

Yin Jun naturally understood what he meant.

He didn't mind someone applying eye drops either.

Whether it is Roy Disney or Disney's son-in-law Ray Miller, Yin Jun will not keep them for specific tasks. If they are to serve as mascots or image ambassadors, that's fine. They can be raised as mascots with high salaries.

Even Yin Jun would not reuse Perez in front of him.

For now, the best candidate is Michael Eisner. In 10-15 years, Yin Jun will hand over the position to Robert Iger, who has grown up - that is, after Eisner, he will continue to buy Pixar, Comics, etc. The super manager of Williams and Lucasfilm is now rising through the ranks at ABC Television Network!

However, Yin Jun knows that Eisner is a person with very obvious advantages and disadvantages, so he will definitely not give him as much uncontrolled power as the Disney board of directors in the previous life.

It would be a good idea to have a separation of powers at Disney.

For example, the person he called to the office now was a top genius and the future giant who Yin Jun valued to be in charge of the Disney animation department.

John Lasseter.

John Lasseter, who just graduated from college the year before last and got a five-year work contract, is an out-and-out genius.

The two cartoons he produced while in college both won him student Oscars, and also laid a solid foundation for him to enter Disney's Animation Story Department.

But in fact, John Lasseter's real genius lies in his future computer animation production.

Ah, right.

That's Pixar.

Although Pixar was not founded by John Lasseter, he left Disney three years later and went to the Lucas Computer Animation Department—the future Pixar—and quickly became the soul of the department.

It was John Lasseter who became president of Pixar and CEO of Disney Animation Studios after Pixar was acquired by Disney.

But for now, John Lasseter is an out-and-out newcomer. He is still just getting started in Disney's animation story department, and is far from becoming an elite figure in three years.

Therefore, standing in front of his future boss, John Lasseter was a little nervous.

He didn't know what Yin Jun meant by calling him here specifically. This kind of unknown worry made him very uncomfortable.
