"That's good. Are you still used to it in the company?"

"It was a bit uncomfortable at first, but now I've gotten used to it. It's much better than being bored at home every day."

"That's good. I also said that if you and Masako are not used to it, you should just stop coming."

"No. It's boring to stay at home and have nothing to do."

"Okay. I learned to talk back in just a few days. It seems that I have to deal with you again."

"whee--"

The two of them romped together and walked to the guest room together. Not long after Lu Xinyue fell asleep, Masako Shinkawa also came over to make tea.

slam-la-

As the boiling water was brewed several times, the contents of the cup were filled with fragrance and smoke rose.

It's been a long time since I drank the tea made by Masako Shinkawa, but suddenly I drank it again, which felt very interesting.It is light and fragrant, taking a sip can immediately drive away the fatigue of the whole body and make people feel refreshed.

Shen Jiannan held the teacup and sipped the tea carefully, listening quietly to the two talking about their heartfelt and parting moments, and occasionally interjected, which made the two of them laugh non-stop.

ding ding ding-

The phone on the table rang suddenly, Shen Jiannan picked up the phone and pressed the call button.

"Boss. Liu Sheng and Mr. Murdoch are here."

"Oh. Let them in."

Five minutes later, under the leadership of Li Daxiao, Liu Changzhi and Murdoch walked into the gate of Capital One with a smile. After seeing Shen Jiannan, the two couldn't help being startled.

Young, really too young, even several years younger than Li Shikai looked.Although the two had seen the photos Shen Jiannan left last year, they were still surprised by his appearance.

Li Shikai took control of STARL at the age of 25, and has already attracted much attention in the business world.But everyone who knows knows that the reason why Li Shikai can control STARL is mainly because of the great tree of Hutchison Whampoa, thanks to the superman Li Zhencheng.

But the major shareholder of Standard Chartered Bank in front of him doesn't even look 25 years old.It is rumored that Hong Kong's third largest club is supported by him. There are also rumors that he has connections with Japanese trading companies. There are even rumors that Capital One's power has expanded to Eastern Europe. The Russian bodyguards around him are the best evidence.

But the most incredible thing is that no one knows what background he is.

He is handsome and handsome, with dark eyes that are bottomless. Although there is a smile on his face, it can make people feel a kind of madness and unruly atmosphere.

Murdoch and Liu Changzhi looked at Shen Jiannan, and Shen Jiannan was observing Murdoch.

Compared with later years, this media tycoon still doesn't have so many old lines on his face, but his hazy eyes are shining brightly, full of endless ambitions.

There was a strange flash in Shen Jiannan's eyes.

Would the world be more interesting if the legendary woman was arranged to meet Murdoch in advance?

Several people quickly got together, Shen Jiannan looked directly at Murdoch, and offered to extend his hand.

"Hello. I'm Shen Jiannan. Mr. Murdoch is here. Please forgive me for the inconvenience."

"Mr. Shen is very polite."

"..."

Chapter 10 Machine Front

After exchanging pleasantries and courtesies, several people sat down cross-legged one by one under Shen Jiannan's arrangement.

The independent reception room was decorated in a Japanese style. Shinkawa Masako was holding a teapot full of tea, kneeling beside Shen Jiannan, making tea for several people.

slam-la-

The clear light green tea turned into crystal clear lines, and rushed into the cup one by one like flowing clouds and flowing water. As the smoke and dust rose, a faint fragrance soon rose around.

Shen Jiannan took the tongs and handed the teacups to several people one by one.

The tea fragrance is tangy, straight to the tip of the nose, light and mixed with fragrance, refreshing.

Rupert Murdoch took it, praised the good tea, picked it up and took a sip, the sweet taste rushed straight to the taste buds, and he couldn't help giving a thumbs up to Masako Shinkawa.

“Very good.”

Shen Jiannan couldn't help smiling, and said while holding a teacup.

"Mr. Murdoch knows how to taste tea?"

"I don't understand it very well. But I can feel a unique rhythm, sound, aroma, and color."

"Haha, Mr. Murdoch is really elegant."

"Thank you for the compliment."

As Murdoch said, he met Liu Changzhi's eyes. There are some things that he is not suitable to talk about in his capacity.Liu Changzhi returned a knowing look, grabbed the teacup, smiled politely, and mentioned the purpose of his visit this time.

"Li Sheng must have told Mr. Shen about our intention to come. I don't know what you think about this matter."

Shen Jiannan didn't answer directly, he held the teacup for a moment, Yun Danfeng took a light look at Liu Changzhi.

"Liu Sheng. Is it convenient for Fang to let me talk to Mr. Murdoch alone?"

You, get out, you are not qualified to speak here.

Although Shen Jiannan didn't say that, that's not what he meant.

Liu Changzhi's expression changed instantly, and his face turned green and red. He was the executive director of STARL after all, and he was considered number one under Hutchison Whampoa. He had been humiliated like this several times.

But suddenly, Liu Changzhi felt the hairs on his back stand on end, as if he was being targeted by a poisonous snake or lion.

Following his feeling, Liu Changzhi looked sideways, and immediately met a pair of indifferent and bloodthirsty eyes.

It was Akhmetov, sitting in a corner, as non-existent as air. Before, Liu Changzhi just glanced at him and didn't find anything unusual about him. Now they looked at each other, and immediately felt the bone-chilling cold.

Dangerous, extremely dangerous.

Sweat ran down Liu Changzhi's face, and he suddenly realized that the rumors were probably true.

"On the one hand, of course it's convenient. Mr. Shen is free to do so."

"Laugh. Then go and sit with Liu Sheng, and I will talk to Mr. Murdoch about something."

"Yes, boss."

The two walked away bent over one after the other, one was frightened and the other was used to it.

After the two left, Shen Jiannan was no longer cynical like before. He looked directly into Murdoch's eyes and met Murdoch's gaze.Under the traction of Qi, Murdoch didn't smile anymore, and looked directly at Shen Jiannan.

A pair of jet-black eyes, bottomless, black as vast as the night sky, and another pair of dark yellow eyes, slightly cloudy, but it is impossible to guess the true thoughts of the owner of the eyes.

After a long time, Shen Jiannan lost his momentum and laughed.

"Mr. Murdoch. I think you also know the importance of First Media under the Stars to Capital One. I also know its importance to News Corporation. But [-] million Hong Kong dollars is not enough."

Murdoch did not speak, but held out two fingers.

"Two hundred million?"

"Yes. But not Hong Kong dollars, U.S. dollars, two hundred million U.S. dollars."

Shen Jiannan was startled.

Isn't this his favorite way of pretending to be coercive? I didn't expect Murdoch to like to do it too.No loss is the top media crocodile, the first move is a shocking [-] million US dollars, if it is someone else, it is estimated that someone will be knocked out.

You must know that STARL invested more than 33 billion Hong Kong dollars, and News Corp. only gave more than 1000 million Hong Kong dollars, while the first finance and economics under the stars added up to [-] million Hong Kong dollars.

100 million US dollars, with a rate of return of more than [-] times, if it is all converted into cash, it can kill people alive.

But money is... meaningless.Shen Jiannan smiled silently, stared into Murdoch's eyes and shook his head.

Murdoch's face darkened instantly, and his heart sank.

Two hundred million U.S. dollars is an astronomical figure. I believe that anyone who hears this figure, which is more than ten times higher than expected, will be thrilled. If the outside world finds out that News Corporation will acquire the First Media under the Stars for two hundred million U.S. dollars, it will inevitably There will be an uproar.

He did a survey and found that Capital One's initial investment in Star Media was only 500 million Hong Kong dollars, or [-] million U.S. dollars. This geometric rate of return is enough to make anyone stunned.

However, Shen Jiannan was unmoved at all and directly refused.

[-] million US dollars is the limit of funds that News Corporation can mobilize. It is impossible to increase the price, and Shen Jiannan's attitude also makes it clear that he has no intention of selling at all.

Murdoch couldn't help feeling a little irritated.

He has made careful strategic planning. If he can win the No. [-] Media under the Stars and use STARL as a publicity, the No. [-] Media under the Stars will be merged into STARL and merged into the Star Media Group. With the No. [-] Media under the Stars in the financial and economic As well as the huge influence in investment and STARL's resources, it is believed that it will soon occupy the Asian market.

At that time, any capital in the world that wants to get a share of the Asian market will have to cooperate with News Corporation.

but now......

Looking into those dark and deep eyes, Murdoch was calm and suppressed his anger.

"Mr. Shen, [-] million US dollars. I don't think anyone will offer a higher price than News Corporation. You shouldn't refuse."

"Mr. Murdoch is right. Two hundred million dollars, no one will pay that price again."

"why?"

Shen Jiannan didn't speak, but Masako Shinkawa understood and poured him another cup of tea.

Picking up the teacup, smelling the aroma of the tea, and taking a sip, the faint lingering fragrance lingers for a long time.

After several sips, Shen Jiannan smiled faintly.

"I think Mr. Murdoch should know that CBN under the stars also has a good reputation in the entire Asian market. If there is enough capital injection, it can easily establish a brand image in various regions in Asia.

Suppose I win a radio station in Thailand or the Philippines, do free programs, and expand to other markets with No. [-] Media under the Stars, how long do you think it will take to win the Asian market. "

"Also, I am from Huaxia, and I have always had a good relationship with Huaxia. I believe that Mr. Murdoch can also see the huge prospects of the Huaxia market. Not long ago, reforms were carried out there, and there are already securities and futures markets. What do you think, with China's population base, how promising would it be if you enter the China market?"

"I can use No. [-] Media under the Stars as the core to radiate influence from Hong Kong to the surrounding areas. Whether it is market analysis, investment and financial management experience, or any program, it is all free and open."

"There should be no one who doesn't like free shows, right?"

"And we, when we win all the markets, we can use advertising fees to generate profits."

"..."

Doing shows for free, invading the Asian market, and then to the Chinese people, and the reform of China and the opening of the financial market.

Rupert Murdoch's face became ugly. The free TV business is a tactic that he has been thinking about for a long time to enter the Asian market this time, to match the strategic deployment of the Asian market.

However, Shen Jiannan also mentioned free, and he has already considered how free works, and it is free in terms of financial investment.Moreover, he is also a Chinese. If the first media under the stars wants to enter the Asian market, he will have many advantages over him, a white man.

If you want to invade the current pay TV market for free, you will know the result with your ass.

I came to the wrong place.

Rupert Murdoch couldn't help a wry smile.

"Mr. Shen, I'm sorry. I don't think we need to talk anymore."

"why?"

Shen Jiannan said in surprise.

"Your idea is very forward-looking and great. And Capital One, I don't think there is a shortage of funds. So, do we need to continue talking?"

"Thank you Mr. Murdoch for your praise. As you said, Capital One is not short of funds. Although the company's current assets are only 20 billion U.S. dollars, if I want, I can borrow 100 billion U.S. dollars from major banks at any time. A part of the company is listed and operated, and I believe that there will be no problem at all if it grows several times."

Rupert Murdoch could say nothing, nothing.

Capital One is an investment company, and all it has in its hands is cash. If it wants to operate, it is more than a simple loan of 100 billion U.S. dollars.

Rupert Murdoch couldn't help staring at Shen Jiannan, his dim eyes were surprisingly serious. He could predict that, according to Shen Jiannan's plan, No. [-] Media under the Starry Sky would be News Corporation's biggest enemy in Asia.Whether it's setting a free precedent, or his identity as a yellow race, or a contest for capital, News Corporation doesn't even have the slightest advantage.

Helpless, Rupert Murdoch put down the teacup in his hand and stood up.

"Mr. Shen. Thank you very much for your candor. Thank you for the great tea, but I think there is no need for me to stay anymore. Sorry!"

After speaking, Rupert Murdoch made an apologetic etiquette, put on his shoes, turned and left.

Since there is no need to continue the discussion, once you leave the gate, you will be the enemy from now on.

But... do I really have a chance of winning?

A pair of domineering, deep eyes seemed to be staring at him, but Rupert Murdoch didn't notice that his tall and straight body had always fallen down.

Free...Huaxia people... Horrible cash flow, awe-inspiring operation concept, in the face of such terrifying strength, News Corporation doesn't even have the slightest chance of winning.

"Mr. Murdoch, I think, have you misunderstood me? I don't sell, but it doesn't mean we can't cooperate."

There is another village in the dark.

Rupert Murdoch couldn't help but stop, and when he met those dark eyes, his expression became extremely cautious.
