After Bill McKennick ran away, Murdoch stopped talking, so no one dared to speak, and the atmosphere in the screening room was a little stiff.

Song Yacai didn't bother to break the silence, even though there was a media tycoon sitting next to him, but now you have a request for me, shouldn't you take the initiative to talk about business?

In addition, Titanic's broken sample film doesn't look like it can recover the cost, and the large-scale ship model that costs a lot of money will be a negative asset that will be ridiculed by the media, because in the future, the two major pits of Water World and Cut Throat Island will do this, and the Cut Throat Island crew will still build an all-wood antique sail battleship! By the end of the twentieth century, most of the rebuilding of that thing still had to be done manually! Artificial ...... in Europe

It's funny to say, FoxNews still smears itself from time to time, but he and his big boss watch Fox Film movie samples in the screening room of the Fox TV network, and outside in Brooklyn, New York, there are a group of old blacks who tirelessly make trouble in the name of supporting themselves, which is more active than Chicago, because Chicago is so cold now that few people are willing to go out on the streets.

It's messy, magical reality, anyway, if you don't speak, then Lao Tzu won't say it, see who can survive whom.

He made up his mind, and his eyes were empty.

Remembering that when bidding at the auction before, he first took a fancy to a piece of Ming Dynasty porcelain, but after raising the card, a young couple in the front row also raised the sign, and then increased the price, and the other party immediately followed, the man suddenly looked back at himself, very familiar, Sloan immediately whispered that the other party was Kennedy Jr., let him not fight.

Song Ya remembered that the Donkey politician in North Carolina who competed with Jesse Holmes for the U.S. Senate seat, Gantt, broke the news that he had provided funds for Jesse Helms' campaign before and after Kennedy Jr.'s endorsement.

He seems to be running for the Senate of New York State for 2,000 years? Senator David Patterson of the Manhattan Gang's New York State Assembly is also playing for that position......

And he can be regarded as the financier of David Patterson, is it because of this?

In any case, at this moment, Song Ya does not want to provoke the eldest prince of the Kennedy family, the political rising star and public lover who is highly anticipated by the Donkey Party, and the most charming man in the United States.

Hearing that this guy is very high-profile and has a relatively undesirable personality, Song Ya didn't raise his cards again, made a note in his heart, and after finding an opportunity to win Dalí's watercolor painting at random, he and Sloan hurriedly left the auction hall.

Thinking of this, the door to the screening room was pushed open, and Bill McKennie returned with another copy, along with a female paramedic inside.

"Sorry, my stomach isn't ...... well"

"Please."

After a brief conversation, Murdoch got up, stood in front of the window of the screening room, and took the pills and water handed by the nursing staff.

It's very close to Christmas, and the copies of the love of the day have probably been distributed to various theaters, so naturally it can't be an unfinished product like the Titanic, and when Murdoch comes back from taking his medicine, the room is dark again, and the movie starts to show immediately.

It should be a family romantic comedy starring Michelle Pfeiffer and George Clooney, George Clooney's mature male charm is perfect, he has the same traces of Hollywood movie stars as the old Hollywood, Schalysh is a bit like Elizabeth Taylor, and he is generally considered to have a better image and temperament than Clark Gable.

Of course, it's hard to talk about personal circumstances, Xue Linfen is a talent who has lost the most beautiful years alive, George Clooney has a unique vision and superb skills, and after becoming famous in the emergency room story TV series in one season, he left the crew to break into Hollywood, and now he has received the male protagonist of Warner's blockbuster Batman and Robin, a super comic book star in the minds of the Chinese people, and the symbol of the top male star: Lord Wayne.

"Pfeiffer is now taking on mom's play?"

When Michelle Pfeiffer, who plays a single mother, appeared, Murdoch suddenly asked in surprise.

"Yes, she's almost forty." Bill McKennick replied.

"Time flies so fast, my impression of Pfeiffer is still a young and lovely little girl......"

Murdoch let out a sigh that is often seen in old people, twisting his face and shaking his head at himself with a wry smile.

"It's just that you don't watch her movies very often." If you don't speak, you can't do it, Song Ya laughed.

"Watching a movie? Haha, I'm too busy, let alone movies, I don't have time to ask about this specifics. Murdoch said.

Seduce me to talk about Titanic? Lao Tzu won't talk! "I understand." Song Ya nodded with a smile and stopped talking.

"APLUS, DO YOU KNOW WHAT MADOFF HAS TO SAY ABOUT YOU?" Murdoch asked again.

"How?"

"He said you had the air of an old-school Chicago businessman." Murdoch said.

"Wow, that's his false praise, I'm flattered, unworthy, unworthy......" Song Ya grinned, straight and modest.

Murdoch sensed that he genuinely thought it was a good word, smiled, and turned back to the movie.

Chicago is located in the largest grain growing and livestock growing area in the country, and the Great Lakes region is rich in iron ore, coal and non-ferrous metals.

Therefore, the first batch of businessmen who started from that were either agricultural and animal husbandry tycoons, or not mining, steel, and railway tycoons of the coal and steel complex, the common denominator of these people was based on traditional industries, and in the barbaric two industrial revolutions, they were rude, ruthless, and ruthless, and each had their own sphere of influence, opening all kinds of shops, inns, and taverns in agricultural and pastoral areas, mining areas, railway platforms, etc., and the tyrants of the earth were cold-blooded to deal with workers and competitors at the same time, they liked to make every steel hammer in their pockets.

Because the Civil War, World War I, Prohibition, and World War II were not affected around Chicago, Chicago merchants all took advantage of the tranquil environment to make their fortunes, and this idea of cross-industry operation and reaching out has been passed down until recent decades.

Now is the era of specialization and information technology, but I didn't expect that the old Chicago businessmen and consortia who like to play like this, such as Barnes and Sears Group, have gradually fallen into loneliness, and Chicago has suddenly risen a young black man who is involved in clothing, liquor, records, movies, print media, television stations, publishing, IT, venture capital and even heavy chemicals! It's exactly the same outdated gameplay, it's exactly the same daring, but it's just ......

Murdoch rubbed his stomach, which had just taken the medicine and began to react, thinking back to yesterday.

He was preparing to take a photo with Mrs. Astor when he saw Bill McKennie cautiously push open the door and take a look.

"Don't be sneaky, Bill, just say anything!" was already very upset that he was going to wipe his ass for the Titanic project in person, and he scolded him.

"It's nothing, Ovitz took APLUS away just now......"

Bill McKennick walked in and whispered, "I thought he was brought here to meet Mr. Buffett, and Ovitz said he was going to take him to meet him." ”

He frowned and glanced at Warren Buffett, who was sitting in front of him, but he didn't expect Buffett to be very sharp, "Something?" He asked back.

"It's nothing, you asked Ovitz to bring APLUS here?" He asked for confirmation, but knew it should be unlikely.

"No, Ovitz and I just made an appointment to have lunch tomorrow, and said we'd bring someone."

Warren Buffett replied casually.

Murdoch knew that the second-richest man was the most visible of all the people in the room, and he enjoyed working with young upstarts, imparting experience and absorbing fresh ideas from each other, constantly adapting to the times and keeping track of the trends in the capital markets.

"Oh, then you go out."

Sure enough, he understood Ovitz's annoying play of half-truths, and just as he wanted to send Bill McKennick away, Dr. Kissin suddenly turned around and asked, "Is APLUS the singer with Chinese ancestry?" ”

"Yes."

"David, he seems to have graduated from the University of Chicago." Dr. Kissin looked very interested, and pushed David Rockefeller, who was napping beside him.

"I know that when I was chatting with the president of the University of Chicago not long ago, the president mentioned this boy, praising him for being very smart, very energetic, and running for his career while not falling behind in his grades, and the president was very sorry, saying that he clearly promised to continue law school, but then he forgot about continuing his studies." David Rockefeller replied.

"I remember, it's the Netscape where I scolded your son and Ballmer on the Internet...... Minority shareholders? ”

The gang actually chatted around APLUS, and Warren Buffett asked the elder Gates with a smile.

"Don't look at me, it's been a long time since I've asked the juniors about their business." Old Gates raised his hands.

"That boy does have the air of an old-school Chicago businessman." That's when Madoff interjected this sentence.

"Don't get distracted, men, we're taking pictures."

Mrs. Astor turned back and complained, "Rupert, if you're all interested in that kid, let him come over and let everyone see him, for Jacob hasn't arrived yet." She said.

"Is that okay?"

Murdoch was very surprised, and even more surprising was that no one present refused, he looked at David Rockefeller, and the old man didn't speak, that is, acquiescence? "Bill, go and bring APLUS here." So Bill McKennick ordered......

"I'll go, Ovitz...... You all know that. Madoff himself walked out.

It's really calm!

He returned to the screening room with his thoughts, silently glanced at the young mixed-race boy beside him, and also made up his mind not to take the initiative to open the mouth of the Titanic, at most hinting in other ways.

"That's it." For him, there was nothing to watch in a romantic comedy, and after more than forty minutes, he spoke out to stop the screening, "I have something to do, APLUS?" ”

"Oh, yes, yes."

Song Ya also stood up, "I'll send you." ”

"No, I'm not that old."

Categorically refusing to be supported, he walked out of the screening room and whispered to Bill McKennie, who was following him, "Where's the progress of the negotiations?" ”

"Yeremov, who represents him, insists on sharing the box office amount, and also divides the whole chain of income from TV broadcast licenses, videotapes, and weeks......"

Bill McKennick replied, "There is a dispute between the two sides about the proportions. ”

"What about Paramount? Still won't let go? He asked again.

"Shirley Lansing insists on winning the North North ...... box office alone" Bill McKennick's inclination is obvious, "The conditions are too harsh, or you will ...... with Mr. Lei Shidong in person"

“NO！”

Indeed, the sharing is that everyone earns together and loses together, and what is left of Beimi's box office when it is taken away by the whole bowl? The legend of the Titanic has not spread beyond Britain and the United States for so many years......

"He didn't ask for the soundtrack or anything? Nor is it required to meddle in the editing? Murdoch asked.

"No, Yeremov said APLUS didn't have the energy to score another movie, and we had already signed the soundtrack to Sony Columbia Records......" Bill McKennick replied.

"Hmm."

Murdoch touched his chin and thought about it, "That's it, no matter which side of the money you take, in short, you can get it as soon as possible......"

"Okay."

"Also, I am not satisfied with today's sample, and I even feel ashamed!"

He threw down his words and strode away.

"I'm tired!"

Song Ya, who left the screening room and hurried back to Chicago, collapsed on the couch as soon as he got home, "I have to continue rehearsals early tomorrow morning......," he hugged Shakira and complained.

"What about the picture?" Sloane took off his coat and went straight through his bag.

"Inside."

"Found it!"

Sloan got the picture, "Is there a free frame?" ”

"You ask Xue Lin, it's just a group photo."

"A group photo worth 60 million!"

"Not so exaggerated...... Sloan"

Song Ya didn't care about this matter anymore, and went back to the room to sleep after a little rest.

Late at night, he woke up and walked into his study, where the photo Sloane had mentioned earlier had been stuffed into a beautiful frame and sat quietly on the table.

Mrs. Astor and Dr. Kissin sit in the center of the frame, Warren Buffett sits on the other side of Mrs. Aster, David Rockefeller sits on a separate couch next to him, Gates Sr. stands behind Madoff and Murdoch, and himself is talking to Murdoch in the very corner.

It's really a bit restrained, why didn't I feel it at all, and because Murdoch was shorter than me, I couldn't get my whole face in the mirror when I lowered my head and spoke......

It's good, and while there are all sorts of conspiracy theories surrounding these top bigwigs, what's not to be satisfied with having the opportunity to take a picture with them?

Song Ya proudly put the photo frame on the small table in front of the honor corner in the study, but the space was a little insufficient, in addition to the photo of herself and Aunt Susie and other family members, there was also a photo with Xue Linfen and two children, his ex-wife and little Rhaegar, and his ex-wife and Walt, David Cole, and Roberto Clywell when they had dinner in New York......

Then there are some politicians, and ex-wives and current commanders, and they and Al Gore, Underwood, the governor's couple, Dinkins, and so on......

Of course, it is impossible not to put the 'grandfather and grandson love' with Mandela in a conspicuous position.

Reframe the picture, "Forget it." After consideration, I chose to move the photo with Michelle and his wife to the back.

"Perfect!"

He looked left and right, and tasted slowly.
