Director of Rebirth of Xiangjiang

Chapter 410 Paving the Road (12) Subscribe
Zhao Hong found that at least one-third of the employees were idle and didn't know what they were doing every day. The management was also in disarray.

This incident was randomly reported by the American media, which misinterpreted that DreamWorks deliberately laid off employees, and turned a blind eye to MGM's simultaneous recruitment of employees. MGM Film Company has a total of about 4000 people, and it directly laid off about 1000 people in half a month.

This caused great repercussions in Hollywood, and at the same time recruited about [-] employees.

Zhao Hong found many talents in it, the most eye-catching one is a young man named Robert Iger in his 30s. He is also a little famous now, and will become more prominent in the future.

Robert Iger was born in Long Island, New York in [-]. When he was in high school, he decided to engage in the television industry in the future, and entered Ithaca College in New York to choose a media course.

After graduation, he worked as a weatherman for a local TV station before joining ABC, starting as a junior studio producer and working his way up the sports and entertainment division.

ABC was acquired by Metropolitan in 1985, and during his tenure at the new company, Iger became known for his work ethic and candid style.

In the future, he will become the chairman of Disney in the millennium, leading Disney to become the largest film company in Hollywood.

Zhao Hong was ecstatic after seeing his information. He really didn't expect to catch such a big fish. He believed that as long as he cultivated well, he would definitely be the manager of DreamWorks in Hollywood.

During this period, he directly separated United Artists, and the company was directly handed over to Robert Iger. As for MGM, he was handed over to a talented person who was unsuccessful in the company. This woman, named Meyer, was also a A person who will shine in the future.

In this way, the two companies were cleaned up quickly. Many employees of Zhao Hong walked in the company with trepidation, for fear that if something bad happened, they would be dismissed from work.

During this period of time, the unemployment rate in the entire United States has skyrocketed, which is why Zhao Honggan dismissed a large number of employees. At this stage, it is not too easy to recruit employees.

After Zhao Hong acquired MGM, she discovered that her company still had foreign debts of [-] million US dollars. Zhao Hong didn't expect to repay the money immediately, and she still had to put some pressure on the two newcomers.

During this period of time in the United States, he continued to acquire MGM's external shares. Through low-priced acquisitions and injection of capital dilution, DreamWorks finally occupied 90.00% of MGM's shares, and then directly applied for privatization and delisting.

It can be said that DreamWorks has carried out drastic reforms to MGM at this stage. The main reason for Zhao Hong's delisting is that she wants to wait for the company to get on the right track before re-listing. In this way, she will get back the excess money she had before. .

This operation directly cost DreamWorks a total of 14 billion US dollars. At this stage, the two companies, United Artists and MGM, do not interfere with each other. Mayer and Robert Iger are respectively in charge, and each company has a cash flow of [-] million US dollars on the books.

After Zhao Hong explained the matter, he didn't care about it. As for how to operate it, it was up to their respective skills. He didn't intend to give them some good ideas, but planned to wait for a while to see if they had the ability to run the company well.

Zhao Hong is not afraid that they will have a tendency to be too big to lose. When he recruited employees during this period, he also recruited a lot of Chinese with good abilities. This is also a way of mixing sand.

In addition, some people were transferred from Hong Kong to work here. At first, he was worried that no one would want to come to the United States to work. In fact, he thought too much, and a large number of employees wanted to come to the United States.

With this opportunity, people flock to it, so now there are three forces in the company, that is, employees from Xiangjiang, local Chinese employees, and other white employees.

How to integrate these people depends on the skills of Mayer and Robert. Zhao Hong is very confident about this. The abilities of these two people are not inferior to the old lady at all.

After finishing the matter, he went straight home. During this period of time, he brought Lijue with him, and it was rare for them to be alone together.

Although Lizhi spends a lot of time with Zhao Hong, she doesn't spend much time alone. This is a rare opportunity, and she takes care of Zhao Hong comfortably.

In Beverly Hills, Hollywood, she also has her own villa, and it is rare for the two of them to live a happy life as a couple. Zhao Hong found that Lijue cooking skills are very good.

During this time in Hollywood, Li Zhi was helping me, and many things felt much lighter. Now Li Zhi's business ability is getting better and better.

When Zhao Hong returned to Xiangjiang, it was just November [-]th, the MGM matter was settled, and the Xiangjiang Hotel was also in the hands of DreamWorks.

The elder sister was personally responsible for this matter. On October 28th, DreamWorks owned 50.00% of the shares of Xiangjiang Hotel. Therefore, Lao Kadoorie did not make unnecessary struggles, and the deal was reached in just five days of negotiation. Dreamworks has spent HK$50 billion on this project, which is considered as a share acquired before that.

So far, DreamWorks has completed the long-term layout, and Zhao Hong took Yazhi to the Peninsula Hotel on the day he came back.

"Azhi, you see, this is our special room in the future. Do you still remember when I said I would buy this room?" Zhao Hong pointed to the beautiful room they had once and said, full of enthusiasm when talking. It is proud.

"See if you can do it!" Yazhi said with a blushing glance at Zhao Hong, but she was so sweet in her heart that Zhao Hong was able to remember their previous bits and pieces in her heart, she was so happy!
The two entered the room and saw that everything inside was as it was before. Yazhi looked around happily.

"Azhi, how about we relive our old dreams?" Zhao Hong whispered in her ear after gently hugging Yazhi.

What responded was a pair of big eyes that I still feel sorry for, how can this be tolerated!

……

DreamWorks’s big actions can be said to have shocked many companies in Xiangjiang three times a day. They were very worried that DreamWorks would attack them, but they were obviously more worried than them. It was a sigh of relief.

Now DreamWorks is undoubtedly the largest company in Xiangjiang, even many old foreign firms can't match it, and other Chinese consortiums can't match it.

At the present stage, among the Chinese in Xiangjiang, the Zhao Hong family is probably the one with hundreds of billions of assets. The other families are not far behind, and it may take another year or two to reach such a height.

It can be said that every move of DreamWorks has attracted much attention, and Zhao Hong found that it was impossible to make a fortune in silence.

Now the size of DreamWorks is hard not to attract attention!
But now DreamWorks is not afraid of any storms. Since the acquisition of MGM, DreamWorks has a great influence in the media circles all over the world.

Under such circumstances, the safety factor has risen sharply. In general, the Hong Kong government dare not suppress it at will. Of course, DreamWorks has never been suppressed, but it is always good to be prepared. Don’t put your own safety on the integrity of others. .

This year, because he won’t be filming movies, Zhao Hong’s life is not bad. By December, his novel has written about 50 words, and it is expected to reach 70 words by the time of New Year’s Day this year. This book Zhao Hong thinks it is It may not be able to finish writing next year.

He can only guarantee to write 15 characters per month. This feels like the limit speed. Zhao Hong has already left the scope of handwriting. He uses a computer to type, which is much faster.

Such a fast speed is inseparable from the fact that he has already installed all the knowledge to be mastered in his brain, and he can use it immediately when the inspiration comes, which saves a lot of time.
