Chapter 1343 Proceeding in a low-key manner
Golf and baseball are arguably two sports that are clearly divided into groups in the United States, no matter how many young people love the passion of baseball. When you get older and start to take charge of the family business, you usually say that you are a baseball fan, but whether it is sports or leisure, you will usually focus on big golf.
So in the United States, the place where the rich gather is not necessarily at the banquet. There are a lot of business talks at banquets, and if you want to see the real rich, you have to go to the golf course and the horse course, because neither of these sports can be enjoyed by the poor.
The Kennedy family is very famous in the United States, after all, it is one of the top politicians group. However, Abel Kennedy is not very well-known in the United States, and there is not even much of a spotlight, even if he is a boss with assets of nearly $12 million.
There are many multimillionaires in the United States, and almost all of Hollywood's big names are there, so multimillionaires in the real industry are not so conspicuous, especially if he deliberately keeps a low profile.
Although the Kennedy family is very famous in the United States, not all those with the surname Kennedy in the United States are members of the Kennedy family, so Able's low-key has not been noticed by too many people.
"You're playing well, you're professional, and you're definitely going to be able to play if you get in touch. Abel looked at Yang Dongxu, who was wielding a club, and praised beside him.
It's not a sycophant, but it really feels like it's a good fight, especially when you see Yang Dongxu's movements are a little stiff, but after every swing is very powerful and accurate, what is this?
"I exercise a lot, and I have a better control of my body than normal people. So it's okay to play professionally. Yang Dongxu said with a smile.
Kennedy's business and media activity in recent years seems to have made some people smell something. So Yang Dongxu didn't plan to meet Kennedy Sr. this time, and the Kennedy family seemed to mean the same thing.
Recently, Knelia has been receiving endorsements, because she has begun to slowly alienate some Chinese companies that have raised her value before, but like some European brands and Japanese brands.
In terms of commercial endorsements, Yang Dongxu has the championship team 76ers and the giant Barcelona in his hands, so it is easy to get some other endorsements for Cornelia.
For example, when the big-name stars in the team received some endorsements from the male and female protagonists, they said that they wanted to cooperate with Cornelia. As long as Cornelia's asking price is not too excessive, basically the cooperative endorsement with the spherical can be won.
After all, football stars want to enter the fashion industry and break down the barriers of sporting goods. Beautiful female models in the fashion circle like to stick to people's stupid money and multi-spherical bodies, which is very common and not surprising news in the United States.
Therefore, this time Yang Dongxu came to the United States to pick up Abel instead of Kennedy Sr. The two men did not meet in any big city, but in a city like Detroit, which had begun to decay and was forgotten.
"That's a lot better than the average person. Able said with a smile, and then said, "Do you think I'm going to do more in business?"
The Kennedys were not short of money, but he was short of big money. There is a lack of channels to convert large amounts of money into influence on the military. Capital pays attention to society, and although the politician group has attracted attention and has a wide range of connections, the consortium is the group of people who stand at the top of the pyramid.
"There is a bottleneck in everything at a certain stage, and I just broke that bottleneck, so I came over. Yang Dongxu said with a smile.
"Yes, you can break that bottleneck. Abel nodded, a little embarrassed.
Everyone knows that receiving funding from foreign forces is a dead end for many politicians, and if you don't get it right, you may tear your family apart. Without accepting Yang Dongxu's funding, it will be difficult for the Kennedy family to turn over.
Even the entire family may die in silence, they are really about to have nothing but the connections left by the older generation, so the barefoot are not afraid to wear shoes. Since you want me to die, I don't want to die, so I naturally strive for all possible survival.
"What happened to the Kennedy family's layout on the Internet?" Yang Dongxu asked.
Compared with the fact that the industry has been clearly divided into various controls and is the cake on the plate of the chaebol, the emerging industry is undoubtedly the exit of the Kennedy family to break through the blockade, among which the Internet is the fastest.
"A number of shells were acquired, and several small companies were also formed. Basically, the assets are below 1 million, there are basically no tens of millions, and the most one now has assets of just over 5 million. Abel spoke.
"It's a bit slow. Yang Dongxu was a little disappointed.
"No way, the Internet is actually not a new industry in the United States, although it is very much like an emerging industry when it is updated. However, because the capital circulates very rapidly in the United States, it depends on the face of the consortium if the projects that can make money want to develop. And the Kennedy family has too many constraints in order to dissociate itself from these companies. Able said helplessly.
Some people don't mind the affluent life of the Kennedy family, but there is a cap on the blockade when it comes to business. It is difficult to break through this blockade without using the political influence of the Kennedy family.
And if you use political influence to label the company as Kennedy, it will be more difficult for the company to grow, and even a little bit bigger and stronger will have to go bankrupt in an instant for one reason or another. It's an endless loop.
"Find a suitable shell, and then pull some reassuring people from Wall Street, and then invest in YouTube, an Internet company that has just become popular this year.
I am an angel investor in this company, although the shares in my hands have been scattered in the hands of the mecha offshore company, which dilutes my identity background as a Chinese person.
But with too many shares, when the YouTube becomes more and more dazzling, there is a risk of being discovered. Therefore, I will gradually reduce the shares of those riskier offshore companies with YouTube financing.
I want you to take over, and in addition to the shares I have reduced, you also need to increase your shareholding through every YouTube financing, so as to achieve silent control of this company. ”
"You're bullish on this company called YouTube?" Abel asked.
"If nothing else, this will be one of the world's largest video downloads and uploads, as well as the largest Internet news port in the coming years.
However, such a website has no examples of success to learn from, coupled with its own constraints. Its influence will be great, but the overall capital will certainly not be able to compare with the current rise of Internet companies such as Google and Amazon.
But in the Internet media port, there is a natural advantage, this is what we need. Therefore, its existence cannot be measured by simple capital. ”
"Understood. Able nodded, "How much does it cost to raise money?"
If there are no media resources in the United States, both businessmen and politicians will suffer very much. Because you can't publicize a lot of things, even if you encounter unfair treatment.
Therefore, mastering a part of the tongue is something that many big people who want to go further must do big. However, the territory of traditional media has been clearly divided, and many media giants are almost all backed by big conglomerates, and the Kennedy family cannot get involved at all, so the Internet news portal has become the best choice.
"The first round of financing was $20 million, and in order to hide people's eyes, we can first pull some investors from Wall Street. You don't have to worry about the money I will come out, but the money needs to be legalized to a certain extent.
You can't let it have traces of my company, although my investment company has diluted the imprint of Huaxia, but you need to bleach the money again in order to be more secure.
lest those people find anything that will affect our plans for the future. As long as the financing is in place, YouTube will quickly become popular. We have to be careful, and we have to be careful. Otherwise, the tubing may be stillborn, and the other party will soon make a replica. ”
Abel's face became serious, "I'll do this myself." ”
"I will contact a few former financial oligarchs in North Russia to cover for you, these people have a lot of money in their hands and want to make various investments in Europe and the United States to ensure that their assets will not shrink, and they can help us block a lot of eyes. ”
"That's a good idea. Able laughed.
For North Russia, which was once the biggest enemy in the world, the United States is indeed afraid of all kinds of fears. But for the financial oligarchs who fled and those Northern Russians with huge assets, too many of them are very friendly on the side of the United States.
Because these people have money in their hands, or they are very rich. If they just spend a dime on life and enjoy their old age, then so much money will become dead money, and there will be no way to bring more benefits.
Therefore, the attitude of these people is that the government of the United States is extremely welcome and even encourages them to invest in the United States and use the money to promote the economic development of the United States. After all, they can't go back to North Russia, they can't be regarded as North Russians, and the more they invest in the United States, the more they will be bundled.
Yang Dongxu talked about another thing: "If the star governor holds any banquet, I hope he can invite Bieber, the honorary mayor of Hollywood, who is preparing to run for California congress." ”
"It's not a big problem. Able nodded.
As a superstar, it is normal to invite the honorary mayor of Hollywood when holding a banquet. So the focus of this sentence is on the matter of the latter sentence of the parliamentarian's candidacy.
As for the number of parliamentarians, as one of the politicians group at the top of the United States, the name of a parliamentarian is indeed not too much of a problem.
His goal is to become a member of Congress and then make a complete transition from Hollywood's position as mayor emeritus to politics. Yang Dongxu continued.
"I'll try to arrange it. "The number of members of Congress is limited, and although the Kennedy family still has a say in this area, it will use more resources to enter Congress.
"The latter one can not be rushed, depending on his performance. Hainer is ready to let the film industry take root in Hollywood, and his becoming a state legislator is the beginning of cooperation, and whether it can be more progressive depends on how Haina's film industry develops. Yang Dongxu further named the matter.
