Chapter 1130? Lunch

Amy...

There is not much left in the forest, and now...

Forget it, let it take its course, Song Ya yawned, reached out and touched Shakira's waist, "It seems that your horsepower is not as strong as before, come and exercise with me today, look at this little fat .”

"Go to hell! Cripple!" She threw the pillow over.

Song Ya smiled and fought with her to get up.

"What's this?"

Shakira went to feed little Ya Lian En, and when she arrived at the rehabilitation room later, Song Ya was already doing exercises, she picked up a document on the small table and asked.

"Oh, it's the confidential document of our relationship between the theme song of the World Cup and the announcement of each other's new album. Let your agent Estefan review it, and then you can sign it." Song Ya replied.

"oh."

Shakira saw that the above stipulated that the two should recognize each other as boyfriend and girlfriend during the announcement period, that they should not share other scandals with each other, as well as various detailed rights, obligations and confidentiality regulations, and agreed with a complicated expression.

"From next year, I will go to New York first today. Don't worry, just take your time."

Song Ya added.

"Today? What are you doing in New York?" she asked.

"Meet a few people, talk about business..."

"oh."

"Don't be unhappy, it's just socializing." Song Ya comforted, but the schedule was very fast, and he didn't care too much. After finishing his rehabilitation, he ate something and went to catch the plane again.

Tomorrow, Sloan made an appointment to meet with Ovitz. After returning to Chicago, he learned that Ovitz was called Buffett again. It dropped two places last year, but that's only because Fujibi changed its calculations to include the Sultan of Brunei and the Walton family, which controls Wal-Mart.

Buffett's net worth soared from 15 billion to 23 billion in one year, and Bill Gates in front of him was even more ruthless, jumping directly from 185 to 36.4 billion, and his net worth followed Microsoft's stock price. nearly doubled.

Ovitz has long boasted that he and Buffett have an excellent relationship. At the auction held by Mrs. Astor, he said that he would bring him to see Buffett, and now he has the opportunity.

After Song Ya arrived in New York, he first went to Bedford Hills to see Little Rega, and stayed for one night. Buffett liked a steakhouse in New York called Smith and Wollensky. It was not a top-notch restaurant, but when Sloan came to pick him up, Song Ya Ya still tidied up her spirits and combed her hair to look like an adult.

"Eating steak with a bunch of old men? It'd be boring."

Mariah Carey complained but also dressed up early, and put on her favorite Hermès signature Kelly bag.

"Are you going together?" Song Ya had no choice but to ask.

"Forget it, just pass the time."

"By the way, do you know that Donny Braston just declared bankruptcy a few days ago?" She asked excitedly after the extended Lincoln started.

"Yes, Halle Berry mentioned this to me long ago, before she went bankrupt."

Harley poked her mouth out and asked if she could help save Tang Ni's financial crisis, but Song Ya didn't want to help out for no reason, even if it was just a little effort for herself.

Donnie Braston went bankrupt, Babyface made her popular, the relationship between the two is unclear, and just as she was hardened by the song Un-BreakMyHeart, she wanted to renegotiate the contract with LAFACE Records or switch to another company to earn a sky-high signing bonus When the time comes, bankruptcy comes at just the right time.

After experiencing personal bankruptcy, Tang Ni had to bow her head to Babyface and renew her contract obediently. The trend of quasi-DIVA is a major event in the industry. The things here are not necessarily simple. Tang Ni is not good at financial management. Anyway, Song Ya thinks very complicated, so naturally she will not reach out rashly. To offend Babyface.

My relationship with Babyface has always been good. Although the other party acted very 'calm' after I was shot, it is far from being kept in a small book.

"Oh, poor Donnie..." Mariah Carey put her fingers on her mouth hypocritically, but immediately burst out laughing.

"Uh...Mimi,

I will officially announce my relationship with Shakira next year, mainly for the hype of the new album and the theme of the World Cup. "

Seeing that she was in a good mood, Song Ya took the opportunity to confess, "She gave birth to a child for me last month, daughter."

The smile on the ex-wife's face disappeared instantly, "Then you didn't tell me last night!? I knew I would drive you to sleep on the street! Scum!" She yelled.

"It's just a publicity strategy, you should understand." Song Ya said.

"I know what a fart!" The signature Kelly bag called out and hit Song Ya on the forehead.

Then she looked out of the car window angrily and said nothing. Song Ya rubbed her forehead and glanced at Sloan, who was sitting opposite.

"Hello, Mr. Buffett, Mr. Ovitz."

The three arrived at the steakhouse long in advance, but they didn't expect that Buffett and Ovitz were already there, and they seemed to have chatted for a long time.

"Haha." Buffett was happy to see the crutches Song Ya was leaning on. After shaking hands, he pointed to the crutches and laughed at himself: "Is it easy to use? Maybe I will use this thing soon."

"How come, your body looks great, at least better than mine." Song Ya smiled wryly.

"What happened to your forehead?"

"Oh, I accidentally hit the car door just now."

"Haha, sit down." Buffett may be the most gracious among the top millionaires, like a cheerful white old man next door, and kissing hands with Mariah Carey and Sloan in the old-fashioned way.

Ovitz personally helped the two ladies pull out the chairs, and Song Ya couldn't do this with crutches.

"I'll sit here." Mariah Carey ran to sit next to Buffett, "I admire you very much." She took the old man's arm and said in a whisper.

The dining table is very secluded, against the wall, but other guests can see this side, probably most of the diners are the elites of Manhattan, just take a few more glances, and will not come to disturb.

"Haha..." Buffett could only continue to laugh silly.

Song Ya winked at her ex-wife, but she ignored her and moved the chair closer to Buffett.

At this time, the restaurant waiter came over with a small cake with a candle on it, "We prepared this for you, APLUS." Ovitz smiled and said, "Today is your twenty-third birthday, right?"

"Wow, thank you, I'm so touched."

Ovitz was really careful, Song Ya himself forgot, a person who didn't know if it was the manager of the restaurant or the two old men's entourage came to take pictures, a few people had a good atmosphere and asked him to make a wish and blow out the candles, this It's a good thing. Sloan, who was in charge of Littman Media's IPO, was able to eat at the same table with the stock god. The spread of the photos is definitely very good news.

"Don't you sing a birthday song or something?" Song Ya complained to her ex-wife.

When I looked up, I saw that my ex-wife was pouting and kissing Buffett's cheek, making a pose with scissors to the camera lens, as if trying to get close to a rich old man, and becoming the second most popular Anna Nicole recently. Buffett was all overwhelmed She looked a little embarrassed.

But Buffett's love history is also very exciting. He lived with his ex-boyfriend when he got his wife in 1971. He also has a regular lover, and it is said that the lover was sent by his wife to take care of him. The three of them often have superstar banquets together until Now, he and his wife are still not divorced.

"snort!"

At the end of this episode, Mariah Carey threw a demonstrative look, and probably won't talk about the New York real estate tycoon chasing her in front of her in the future. Buffett is much richer.

Song Ya also stared at her.

Everyone applauded the steak, and finally we can start talking about business, "APLUS, how is the status of Metropolitan Records?" Ovitz asked.

"Not so good, the singers are all complaining that Disney's record announcement and distribution capabilities are not as good as Sony Columbia's before."

Song Ya replied that this is the truth. FoxyBrown and Jazzy have collaborated on a song I'llBe before, and they are also on the charts recently, and Disney's ability to chart is one world behind Sony Columbia. The voices of the two are somewhat dissatisfied through Linda. into his ears.

"Ha, you have to ask Disney for more resources."

Metropolitan Records was dominated by Ovitz when he was at Disney, but he has now gone out and is very resentful to Disney Emperor Eisner, "His stock price is not high now, maybe you can absorb some, at least you can also give Roy Disney Sir, do me a favor, do you know? At the rate Eisner is pocketing money, his personal shareholding must exceed Roy’s, and the Disney family will not be the largest individual shareholder in a few years.”

"I don't want to offend the emperor."

Song Ya didn't want to be a disgusting knife in his hand.

At present, Eisner is almost invincible in Disney. If I have a close relationship with him, I will not be hit. The main reason is that Roy Disney and Linton are taking care of me. Maybe Linton, who is a "Holy Family", will play a bigger role. , Even if this year's Hollywood film industry has suffered huge losses, it is a foregone conclusion.

Yes, while talking, Linton made two more films, directed by Ridley Scott and starring first-line actress Demi Moore. .

Washington Square, the production cost was 15 million, and the box office will not exceed 2 million.

In other words, Linton didn't produce a movie that could pay back in the whole year of 1997.

"You don't have to be afraid of Eisner, APLUS, our power in Disney is still strong, even if I leave." Ovitz continued to fire.

"Oh! I remember Mr. Buffett's Berkshire Hathaway also owns a lot of Disney stock?"

Song Ya really didn't want to talk about rebellion with this guy, so she asked Buffett, who was being consulted by Sloan.

At least I know that Ovitz, Buffett, Jobs, former ABC president Geraldine Layburn, and Oprah should have belonged to the original anti-Eisner alliance, but they were resolved by Eisner.

No way, Disney's shareholding is too dispersed, and the power of senior managers and the board of directors is too great.

Buffett also shook his hand to indicate that he didn't want to talk about this topic, "APLUS, Jim Clark has been yelling at you recently, don't you want to fight back?" He asked back.

Jim Clark was furious when he learned that he let 3DFX completely join Microsoft, and finally began to attack himself in the media, saying that he was a traitor who made a fortune from Netscape, but now he licks the soles of his enemies, and he will regret it in the future.

"Let him say it, he really helped me a lot."

Song Ya shrugged and melted the steak with a knife and fork, "But I'm sorry for him. I have been with him for so long and only sold the stock to institutions, but it didn't cause the stock price to fall. Often it will rise after the sale... ..."

In the battle between Microsoft and Netscape, Buffett must stand on the side of Microsoft, and the few people chatted casually while eating.

Mariah Carey was a little out of touch, so she concentrated on eating.

Song Ya secretly observed that Ovitz still couldn't forget the failure of Disney, while Buffett paid more attention to the topics of Netscape and Microsoft. In addition to asking Buffett for advice, Sloan mainly talked with Ovitz about Litman Media's acquisition of the TV station.

A person like Ovitz would not be as foolish as he was at the beginning, investing almost all of his money in a newly opened news station. After he brought out a strong media team from ABC, he attracted many investors, and Buffett also Casting a small sum, among others were Ovitz's many Hollywood connections, including even a family fringe in the European luxury industry, and the new station took on the short form that ABC had dropped, but the full name was, Atlantis Cable News.

It opened in the first half of the year. Will McAvoy, the white evening news anchor, is a traditional media person who is more idealistic than Gordon. He insists on news justice, and media elites have the responsibility to bring the truth to the audience. Don't blindly chase social hot spots and the like.

His words are too sharp and mean, and all kinds of persistence lead to unsatisfactory ratings...of course it is still much higher than A+CN.

Some time ago, when the news about the death of the former British princess was hot, he chose not to give too much space, and still insisted on reporting boring international and domestic political and economic news.

The boss Ovitz finally couldn't take it anymore. He heard that he had a big fight and threatened to fire the entire evening newsroom. In the end, he was not willing to fire, because the annual salary and other contracts given to him were too high to afford to fire.

In short, now Littman Media needs to expand its media territory. There are no suitable targets on the market. It just so happens that I like this logo very much. If it weren’t for ABC to take the lead, there would be no A+CN. Will McAvoy It doesn't matter if Yi can't control it, just put Gordon, who is also tough, into it, and it's like raising a maverick news station.

"Mr. Buffett, what do you think of the recent Asian financial crisis?"

He also has his own plans. At present, the Asian financial crisis is intensifying, and all of Southeast Asia has fallen. Hunting Ross has been hunting Chinese areas such as Xiangjiang, Wanwan, and Singapore.

"There is a problem with their linked exchange rate system, the depreciation of the yen, the divestment of capital, and the high foreign debt, especially the short-term foreign debt." Buffett replied generally: "The currency valuation is too high."

"They... For example, Thailand shouldn't have abolished financial market controls in the early 1990s, right?" Song Ya asked.

"Hehe." Buffett smiled without answering.

"While we are plundering them, the media and the IMF are asking their governments not to intervene in the market and to save their banking industry, but we obviously didn't do that in the 1980s." Song Ya said.

In the 1980s, Perelman became a financial tycoon in one fell swoop because he received billions in special aid guarantee funds from the Elephant Party for the Texas banking industry.

"This involves economic theory, which is too complicated, and there is no perfect solution now."

The old man snorted, making it clear that he didn't want to explain away the confusion, "APLUS, what do you think of Microsoft buying Apple's non-voting shares for 150 million?" Ovitz interrupted with a wink.

Song Ya didn't want to be too eager, and he didn't have the power to get involved in the hunting of huge amounts of hedging hot money, so he had to give up, "I haven't paid attention to this matter, I have a little Apple stock in my hand, but I took Microsoft's money and stock price Still want to die, about 50 cents? I bought it for 1.8 yuan, and now the cost is 1.30 cents!"

When it comes to Apple, I am angry. There are many future Apple products in the Mingqi movie and MV.

"Maybe Microsoft doesn't want Apple to go bankrupt? If the operating system in the market dies, it will be more difficult to fight its antitrust lawsuit." Sloan said.

"What do you think? APLUS." Buffett looked at himself with challenging eyes.

"It's very contradictory. If it is said that Microsoft's move to save the old enemy and Jobs, who has ridiculed them many times, is out of fear of greater pressure from monopoly lawsuits, so they release a new way of life with a low market share. But at the same time, they encourage Apple to switch to IE browser, and it is also bundled with the operating system for free, doesn’t it mean that the enemy Netscape has more knives?”

Song Ya thought for a long time and replied: "Then there is only one explanation. There is a consensus within Microsoft that they will not allow themselves to lose the antitrust lawsuit and be split up, but it should be acceptable to be judged for unfair competition after killing Netscape. Huge fines?"

"Hahaha!" Buffett showed appreciative eyes, "It sounds like this explanation is very reasonable."
