Rebirth In Hollywood

Chapter 836: Time to Counterattack

"Lucasfilm?"

At this moment, News Corporation seems to have become the owner of Lucasfilm. Rupert Murdoch said confidently, "This is not a condition, because Lucasfilm will definitely belong to Twentieth Century Fox."

Ryan was silent. If ten people were randomly drawn from the banquet hall, nine of them would have the same opinion as Murdoch, and the remaining one, even if he didn't say it, would think so in his heart.

The current situation is very obvious. He and Disney can only protect themselves, and there is no power to expand.

If it were another person in control of Disney, he would definitely find a way to make peace with News Corporation and make a temporary compromise.

After thinking for a few seconds, Ryan said slowly, "Rupert, tell me, what are your conditions?"

"Twentieth Century Fox acquired the shares of Hulu website held by Disney at the market price."

The wrinkled old face faintly reveals the expression that a winner would have. Murdoch's words also let Ryan fully see the greedy side of the media tycoon.

"News Corporation has a 40% priority investment right in the "Avatar" series, and enjoys the same proportion of all income rights; the superhero movies produced by Marvel Pictures are distributed by Twentieth Century Fox; Disney's next three financing expansions shares, News Corporation has priority investment rights..."

Hearing Murdoch's conditions, Ryan's face gradually became serious. If Walt Disney is counted as a country, he agreed to the other party's conditions, which undoubtedly signed a traitorous treaty.

And most of the sales are for their own interests.

"There is one last point..." Murdoch suddenly said earnestly, "Ryan, give up the position of chairman of Disney. This is the best way to save Disney."

"Rupert, if I agree to your conditions." Ryan said with a touch of sarcasm, "Do you think I can continue to sit as the chairman of Disney?"

Murdoch just smiled. Nothing was said.

He's not stupid either. Although he doesn't know the phrase of asking prices all over the sky and paying back the money on the spot, he also understands similar principles. Now he bids a very exaggerated price, if Ryan has sincerity. I will definitely negotiate terms with him.

This is an indescribable and wonderful process of enjoyment. Even if the status is as respected as he is, if Ryan, who is as strong and tenacious as Ryan, can humbly negotiate with him, the personal satisfaction will far exceed what can be brought. Interests.

Is there anything more pleasant than trampling under the feet of people who are richer, richer, and even stronger than themselves?

Looking at the serious-looking young man opposite, Murdoch was not in a hurry at all, he was enjoying this moment, and he was waiting for the next moment. Waiting for the confident, tough and sinister Ryan Jenkins to throw in the towel.

The other party is indeed a master of tricks, but compared with an old man like him, he is still a lot worse...

"I reject!"

The voice that reached Murdoch's ears was not high, but it was unusually clear and firm.

"What?" He asked submissively.

"I reject your terms."

Saying that, Ryan had already stood up, lazily went to see Rupert Murdoch, picked up Nicole, and was about to leave.

"Mr. Jenkins, do you know what this means?" Murdoch stared at him closely.

Ryan walked out of the terrace without looking back. At the same time dropped the last sentence, "the.war!"

Instead of staying at the banquet, Ryan and Nicole went directly to Beverly Hills by car. The car turned around a few times, got rid of the paparazzi following behind, and entered the small villa of the Swift family. The Scott family and George were already waiting in the living room of the villa.

"Mommy..."

As soon as he entered the living room, Sandy, who was temporarily taken care of by Taylor today, ran over and hugged Nicole, and then turned to Ryan and shouted affectionately, "Dad... I miss you."

Ryan pinched her little face, walked to the couch, and sat down. Tyler had brought coffee for him and Nicole, judging by the interaction she had with her parents. It seems that a preliminary consensus has been reached on Scarlett's matter.

certainly. These are sidelines to what they are going to do next.

"Sandy and I went to the garden."

Probably not wanting her daughter to hear the words behind, Nicole picked up Sandy and left the living room with Mrs. Andrea. Ryan glanced at Taylor, and she had no intention of leaving at all.

"George, tell me about your side first," he said.

"Rodriguez is ready." George put down his coffee cup and said as simply as possible, "Also, Anthony Pelicano has a complicated relationship with News Corporation's "New York Post", and we have a lot of information about him. The evidence will be forwarded to the Los Angeles police through special channels starting tomorrow, and the FBI will definitely get involved."

"Let me talk about Nicole."

It was Taylor who spoke, "The royal family is very angry. The current Prime Minister Gordon Brown has a very bad relationship with News Corporation, especially in the general election to be held in May. News Corporation was originally a supporter of the Labor Party, but turned to support the Conservative Party. Cameron, this makes the entire Labor Party very unhappy."

Conservative Party candidate David Cameron wears a pair of trousers with News Corp. It's something the whole of Britain knows, if...  

News Corp. will definitely implicate Cameron.

This matter also involves the royal family. Although the royal family and the House of Lords have indeed declined, no one can deny their influence in the United Kingdom and the entire Commonwealth of Nations.

"A dozen of our foundations have shorted News Corp's stock through hundreds of accounts." Scott said, "Ryan, if things are really as you said, among the five major media groups in the future, News Corp. We can be at the end."

Picking up the coffee cup and gulping down the bitter coffee, Ryan savored the aroma after the bitterness, "Now, it's time for us to fight back!"

It's another new day. After breakfast, Rupert Murdoch walked out of his beach house in Malibu. Although he encountered some unexpected situations last night, it didn't affect his good mood. Even if the other party refused, he would The current situation cannot be changed.

In his opinion, Ryan Jenkins has developed so smoothly in the past ten years, and he will only admit defeat when he encounters a broken head.

At that time, the terms of the negotiation will be more than these.

Sitting on a comfortable beach chair, Murdoch looked at the endless sea comfortably, wondering if he should add some conditions, Disney is the most delicious big cake...

Suddenly, there was the rustling of footsteps on the beach from behind, and Wendi Deng hurried over.

"What's the good news?" He looked over and saw that his wife was frowning with a little anxiety and panic on her face.

"News from the UK." Wendi Deng tried her best to remain calm. "Scotland Yard arrested James this morning and announced that it will formally investigate the alleged wiretapping of the News of the World?"

"What?" Murdoch stood up from the beach chair, not at all like an old man who was almost eighty years old.

You know, James? Murdoch is his most beloved youngest son, and he is also the successor of News Corp.!

"Rebecca Brooks was also arrested at the same time." Wendi Deng said that the head of News Corporation's UK region, she is also Murdoch's goddaughter, "Scotland Yard just held a press conference and announced that it has obtained key evidence."

"Why haven't we been informed?"

Although the incident happened suddenly, after all, Murdoch has experienced countless ups and downs, and soon recovered calm, at least on the surface.

"Our people just got the news." Wendi Deng was not as calm as Murdoch, and she spoke very quickly, "No. 10 Downing Street intervened in this incident, and Scotland Yard has launched a secret investigation since early February. People we are connected to are excluded.”

Early February?

Rupert Murdoch turned his head and looked to the south. There was a cliff, and the villa on the cliff was famous all over the United States. It was the residence of Tony Stark in the movie. In reality, Ryan Jenkins and Nicole Kidd Where Man lives...

Could it be something to do with them?

At this moment, Rupert Murdoch found that he seemed to have underestimated that young opponent.

But now is not the time to think about these things. He walked towards the villa and took out his mobile phone, "Get ready for the plane and go to London."

However, the spread of the wiretapping incident was much faster than Murdoch imagined. On his way to the airport, he had received dozens of phone calls, including TV stations, Facebook, Twitter, Facebook, Yahoo and Google. Many media affiliated with Disney, led by Disney, are almost all hyping the news on a large scale this morning that two executives of News Corporation UK were temporarily arrested by Scotland Yard for instructing their media to eavesdrop.

Although James Murdoch and Rebecca Brooks were released on bail soon, paparazzi took a photo of them walking out of the Scotland Yard building. It became a popular search term on Google and Yahoo.

Subsequently, the New York Stock Exchange had just opened, and the stock of News Corporation fell by 4% in an instant...

This is just the beginning.

While the Disney-affiliated media was spreading the unfavorable news of News Corp., other media companies were also not idle. Media companies such as Time Warner, Viacom, and Universal seemed to have encountered an irresistible hurricane and immediately reversed the rudder. Put the news about Disney in the back of your mind for the time being, and focus on following up on the fresh News Corp. hacking incident.

In the afternoon, on many websites such as Google and Yahoo, there appeared a new popular item called "Bugging Door". As long as you open this item, almost all the content is negative news from News Corporation.

Compared with the public watching the excitement, the top people in the media industry and Hollywood know that Ryan Jenkins, who has been passively beaten, finally showed his fangs, and strangled News Corporation by the throat! (to be continued)
