Hardy Empire 1945
Chapter 230: Acquisition of Marvel
For the jeep battle badge, the military used the copper alloy for coins very conscientiously. One badge uses about 5 one-cent coins. The value of the badge can be imagined.
One for $2.
The logistics department is responsible for this business. All those who want to buy badges should send a letter by mail, and send the remittance to the account designated by the logistics department. After about 2 weeks, you can receive the mailed package.
As for checking the combat experience and opening a letter of proof, the logistics department really can't do it, but they also have a way to transfer all the letters to the Pentagon Military Archives.
Major General Williams went to the Pentagon specifically to interview Major General Cooley, who was in charge of file management, and offered one dollar for each letter of certification.
What, just give us one dollar, you just take the letter and forward it to us, take $9 without any effort, Williams, you are the most shameless guy I have ever seen!
Do you know how much work we have to do, each soldier's situation is carefully checked, the file is as high as a mountain, and some are not at all searchable, do you know how much work this is, and only give us a dollar .
Major General Cooley yelled at Williams.
The voices reached the office outside, causing many office workers to look at them, thinking that the two major generals would not fight, right?
However, William knew that Cooley was acting, and he never refused, just disliked the low price.
To put it bluntly, I want more money.
William spread his hands and said softly: Didn't I have given the clues to the person who issued the letter of proof? Many of the letters have been written clearly, and you just need to check the authenticity.
That also requires a lot of work. Major General Cooley said.
For $1.50, no more, we can support a batch of envelopes and postcards, Williams said.
Major General Cooley is also confident, because only they can do this business, and it is meaningless without the proof of the Pentagon's seal.
But he was afraid that the conversation with Williams would collapse. Their archives are a clear-water yamen, and there is no extra money at all. After finally the logistics department came up with such a profitable thing, Major General Cooley will never let him slip away. .
As for money.
Certainly not for individuals.
But there are many ways to legally and reasonably spend money. The money goes to the fund account of the Pentagon Archives. They can organize team building activities, bring their family members to team building in Miami, and build team building in Hawaii, so as to increase family love.
is that OK.
Too little, at least $3. Major General Cooley said.
How could Williams possibly agree.
The two major generals began to bargain like the aunts who bought food in the vegetable market, and finally settled at $2 per letter.
Both sides laughed.
A handshake signifies cooperation.
In fact, they are all acting, nothing more than trying to gain more benefits.
The badge and battle proof, Williams, who came up with such a genius idea, how come we didn't expect, if we can think of it, the big head can all belong to our archives. Major General Cooley said with emotion.
We didn't think of this idea either. It was the idea of Jon Hardy, the owner of the Hardy Group, who is now helping us sell post-war supplies, Williams said.
Jon Hardy, I've heard, I heard that it took him only two or three years to make the current industry, which is really amazing, no wonder he can come up with such a wonderful idea, and he can make money to the extreme. Major General Cooley said with a smile.
I really want to get to know this boss Hardy when I have the opportunity.
Although this income may only be hundreds of thousands, it is also a lot of income for Qingshui Yamen like the archives, and it can improve a lot of welfare for the people below.
The badges and letters of proof also have Hardy's share.
Although Hardy did not participate, the two deals were also included in the sales contract, and Hardy could get his share.
Hardy told Williams that this business can actually be done for a long time. Tens of millions of veterans are a very large base. If 10 million badges can be sold, it is a $20 million business.
There are also proof letters. If 1 million copies can be issued, it is also a big business of tens of millions of dollars.
After Major General Williams returned to the logistics headquarters, he called Hardy to tell him about the situation. Hardy heard this and remembered something.
General, I'd love to get to know Major General Cooley, and there is one more thing I want Major General Cooley to help with. Hardy said.
Why do you want him to help? Major General Williams was a little surprised.
What can the archives do.
The process of the battle, the details of the battlefield, and the video materials shot on the battlefield should all be handled by the archives. ABC TV will use a lot of text and video materials to make war documentaries. I hope I can borrow a batch of materials. Hardy road.
It's really up to them, okay, I'll contact him for you, let's find a place to get together, you can tell Cooley in person. Major General Williams said.
Hardy will never let go of the relationship that can be used.
Is this a manifestation of bullshit social disorder?
Military files are generally placed in the National Archives, but these files still belong to the military. The military will send a senior representative into the National Archives and become a member of the Archives Committee. By convention, Major General Cooley is the senior military representative. , member of the Archives Committee.
The large amount of video data he manages is very helpful for the production of documentaries. Even some texts, photos, and video data of the Japanese military are also preserved by the US military. Hadi would like to get them and make a batch of documentaries reflecting the atrocities of Japanese aggression.
Some low-level races never admit their crimes, so people all over the world can see their ugly faces and numerous crimes.
the next day.
Hardy flew to Washington.
This is Hadi's first visit to the country's capital.
Hardy met Major General Cooley in a private club.
Regarding Hardy's request to borrow materials, Major General Cooley said yes, but also told Hardy that some of the confidentiality levels were too high to be leaked to the outside world, so he could only give him the data that could be released.
There are just a lot of these estimates, and Hardy is already very satisfied.
After returning from Washington, Hardy told abc television to contact the National Archives to prepare more documentaries.
......
Hardy Group Headquarters,
Office of the Chairman.
Andy reports to Hardy.
Because of the Jeep fire, Willys' stock surged. I sold it at $46.50, making a total profit of $9.62 million. Although their stock price has slowed down a lot in recent days, it has risen by more than a dollar. In fact, I I could put it away at first. Andy said.
Hardy smiled softly.
No one can predict the peak of the stock, as long as it meets our psychological expectations, you can sell it, and you have done a great job. Hardy said.
Andy continued to report.
There is news from Hong Kong that the pharmaceutical company has been registered and is called 'Hardy Group Hong Kong Pharmaceutical Co., Ltd.', and the people from Mersey Pharmaceuticals are already starting to install the equipment.
Wells Fargo has found suitable office locations in Hong Kong and Japan. The Hong Kong side acquired a bank. The bank was closed during the Japanese occupation. After the defeat of Japan, the bank reopened, but there has been no improvement. Wells Fargo contacted them. After that, the other party happily sold all the assets of the bank to them.
As for Japan, you said before that you can acquire some Japanese banking companies. After the war, a large number of banks in Japan failed. Among them, there was a 'Chiyo Bank', which was opened by the Chiyo family. After the inspection, Fuguo felt that it was not bad.
Chiyo Bank is headquartered in Tokyo and has branches in other major cities. It is a big bank with industries all over Japan. At its peak, it was rated as the ninth largest bank in Japan. The banks in front are almost all banks owned by big chaebols. The Chiyo Bank provided a lot of money to Japan's military industry, and after the defeat in 1945, their banking was severely restricted.
After the war, the Japanese people had no money and withdrawn a lot of cash. The Chiyo Bank originally had hundreds of thousands of depositors, and the cash was simply not enough to pay, and only a very small part was paid. They could no longer hold on and were on the verge of bankruptcy.
After Wells Fargo contacted them, Chiyo Bank was very active and hoped to be acquired by Wells Fargo. The Chiyo family only kept a little of the shares and gave the rest to Wells Fargo.
Hardy squinted his eyes and said lightly: Send? They are so kind, and they don't want rich countries to take over their bad debts.
Wells Fargo has done the accounting, took over Chiyo Bank, and became a major shareholder. It is more cost-effective than buying assets directly. It can also get mature business channels, and it is more convenient to carry out work. If you set up a bank yourself, it will take about a year longer. An. Dido.
Hardy waved his hand.
You tell Johnston, don't merge, just acquire, let Chiyo Bank go bankrupt, and then buy its assets after they go bankrupt. Let's set up a bank with clean assets and save so much trouble. Hardy said.
bank bankruptcy,
Millions of savers can't get their money back.
It's none of Hardy's business.
I understand the boss, I will tell John. Andy said.
Keep reporting.
The Global Times report.
Japan has already made arrangements, and the work is carried out normally, and Hong Kong has also begun to operate. According to your instructions, the Hong Kong branch of the Global Times has sent reporters to China and North Korea. Those reporters have worked as war correspondents in the Asian battlefield before. more familiar.
Hardy nodded.
Although I don't have the ability to change the general trend of the world, but I can let people in the outside world know more about what happened there, and I can count myself as doing my part.
Andy, let the abc broadcast company send people to Hong Kong and Japan to investigate, and prepare to build radio and television stations in these two places. Hardy ordered.
There are newspapers.
How can there be no radio and television.
Strike first.
Hardy's media empire must reach Asia.
Good boss. Andy quickly wrote down Hardy's order.
After remembering, Andy raised his head and continued to report, Boss, I have already contacted the two comic companies you have selected. The Detective Comics said that they have no plans to sell them. I sent someone to investigate. Detective Comics There are a total of four shareholders, and the current president of the manga club is Leibo Weiz, a publisher with 22% of the shares.
Two of the other three companies hold shares individually, and Warner holds the most shares. Warner holds 47% of the shares. Detective Comics is now the largest comic book company in the United States, with a total sales volume of 10 million copies last year.
Two comics have been adapted into movies, one Superman and one Batman.
dc is not called dc now, but Detective Comics, but when Hardy saw their comics, he knew that this comic club was the famous dc comics company in later generations.
Now DC has matured, with Superman, Batman, Wonder Woman, Flash, Aquaman, Green Lantern, Hawkman, Atom, Ghost, Doctor Destiny, Shiman and Sandman.
The sales situation is good, and it is also backed by the big tree Warner, so naturally there is no idea of selling it.
If you don't sell it, then forget it. Hardy said lightly.
When the Paramount Act comes into effect, the big studios will have a harder time, maybe they can talk to Warner there.
Boss, we contacted Marvel boss Goodman. He was very interested in the acquisition of our Hardy Group. He told people in the past that he hoped to meet you.
See me, that's ok. Hardy said with a smile.
Marvel is his goal, the boss Goodman wants to sell, and Hardy is naturally willing to meet him.
Two days later.
Two young people walked into the headquarters building of Hardy Group.
Hardy met them in the office. Goodman was thin in his thirties, with black-rimmed glasses on his face, followed by a young man in his twenties.
Hello Mr. Hardy, I'm Goodman, this is Stan Lee, the editor-in-chief of our comics. Goodman introduced himself.
Hardy looked at the handsome black-haired and long-faced guy behind Goodman, and said to himself that this is the real creator of the Marvel universe, Stan Lee, but he has been Marvel's editor-in-chief, chief writer and art director since he was 19 years old.
Hardy walked over and shook hands with Goodman and Stan Lee, smiling and beckoning them to sit on the sofa next to them.
Let's sit down and talk, what to drink? Hardy asked.
The nervousness of the two of them was relieved a lot. Originally, they thought that a billionaire like Hardy would probably be aloof and look down on others, but they didn't expect to be so easy-going.
