Reborn American Tycoon

　"Okay, boss, as you wish, Stan Lee will like it."

　Of course Stan Lee likes it. He really doesn't care who is the boss, and he doesn't care too much about how much money he can make.The most difficult thing for him to accept is that the company is too turbulent.

　"Ron, a piece of advice, you have little chance of winning. Is it really worth it for a comic company that is on the verge of bankruptcy?"

　"Damn it, he William White knows the value of Marvel, don't I know, as long as it is packaged, it is a very beautiful listed company, with William White's price reference, this will be a very good business."

　"Hehe, Ron, you may be right. There is a premise here, how much you are willing to pay. What's more, if William White is willing to acquire, Marvel is quite looking forward to it."

　Ron Perelman sighed dejectedly. He is not a fan of comics, and he is best at making money by going public.If you want to make a lot of money, you need to acquire some companies with relatively high potential value.

　There is a prerequisite here, that is, you cannot bid with others.If this one is not well controlled, it is very likely that you will kill yourself.

　As for William White, although he doesn't hang out on Wall Street, there are legends about him every day on Wall Street.

　William White knows very well that if Marvel is not acquired at this time, there will be big trouble in the future.The current Marvel is full of pits and valleys. If he is harmed by this guy, he will not be able to make up the Marvel Universe in the future.

　Although Ron Perelman is unwilling, but please, although everyone is a billionaire, they are at the tens of billions level.Your money is not as expensive as other people's transportation, so it's best to take it easy.

　If it is said who fans of later generations hate the most, Ron Perelman is undoubtedly the number one villain.Nima, the entire Marvel has been torn apart, it is simply horrible.

　Marvel itself knows very well that if you want to live a good life, it is best to follow William White.During the period of being acquired by New World Films, they have fought hard. Unfortunately, their globalization failed, and no one in Europe supported them.

　In fact, the Vikings are not an American comic in the standard sense.In order to please the fans of the foot basin, more than half of the planners are foot basin people. This kind of meticulous painting style is completely different from the comics of Meidi.

　William White handed over an olive branch, and whether to accept it is something that their board of directors needs to consider.

　It is really speechless that the former overlord of the comics industry has not fallen into this state.In stark contrast is DC. After this guy was acquired, he was miraculously reborn. Although he was far inferior to the Vikings, he was enough to crush Marvel.

　Someone said, you are not provoking the Ministry of Justice, are you?If Marvel is acquired by you again, there will be no opponents there.

　This really doesn't count. A company with a valuation of less than [-] million US dollars has nothing to do with monopoly.Although the Vikings are very good in the United States, they are just like that.Foot basins and overseas markets account for [-]% of the revenue, which is the foundation of the company.

　What's more, although William White is listed in the United States, it is not registered in the United States.If you really played something wrong, it may be delisted here in the United States.

　A company with a market capitalization of 200 billion has too many interests involved. If one operation is not done properly, it will be a very serious disaster.

　"Acquire Marvel? This guy, not a bigger company."

　"Boss, that Ron Perelman seems a little unwilling."

　"Hehe, a little shrimp, so what if you don't want to be reconciled? Goldman Sachs will tear him apart if William White doesn't do anything."

　The old guy is actually right. At the size of Goldman Sachs and Morgan Stanley, he will never allow Xiao Xiami to provoke. Do you really think that everyone can't do it like William White.

　"Boss, Stan Lee wants to talk to you."

　"Okay, let him come here, the old guy is a fan of comics, he will definitely like my comic house."

　Filson smiled and said nothing, he just didn't want to be sold around, the company was so turbulent, there would be no creative inspiration there.

　William White liked this little old man very much, and believed that with his protection, Stan Lee, who devoted himself to creating, would be even better.

　I like to make guest appearances in movies, and I like to stay in the manga studio. I have to admire this little old man's persistence.It's okay to like something, it's terrible if it lasts for decades.William White can create so many comic characters, it is because this guy has cheating tools, and Stan Lee doesn't have it.

　For capable people, William White admired very much. Since he could stand Jobs' arrogance, he certainly wouldn't mind Stan Lee's petty thoughts.Isn't the little old man's lifelong wish to rub DC on the ground?

　Well, while William White doesn't support the idea, he doesn't mind DC vs. Marvel either.

Chapter 453 Persuasion

　When he arrived at William White's comic studio, Stan Lee was amazed.There are many rumors about the richest man in the outside world. Although most of them are ground-breaking, there are also some things that have gradually become a consensus.

　For example, in this comic, the industry does not think that William White has so many inspirations.These ideas of his, presumably also bought at a high price.

　After seeing the studio, those thoughts have been left behind by him.The reason is simple, this studio is too simple, and it doesn't match the exquisite building outside, but it is very similar to his studio in Marvel, only bigger.

　"Boss, Mr. Stan Lee is here."

　"Okay, thank you Suzuki, give us a cup of coffee, Stan, I still have 15 minutes, you can just take a look, how about a cup of coffee?"

　"Okay, no problem."

　"It's a bit chaotic here, no one is allowed to enter, you can do whatever you want."

　Stan Lee smiled wryly, this guy is not out of touch.As an expert, of course he could tell that William White was not just pretending, without years of accumulation, he couldn't draw at his level at all.

　Sketching is something that practice makes perfect. If you don't have ten or eight years, you won't be able to play it at all.

　"Are you a Transformer?"

　"Yes, it will be used in movies in the future, but it will not be used now." Stan Lee was taken aback, making a movie?No wonder the style of painting is so detailed. From the looks of it, the gap here in Marvel isn't even a tiny bit. People's movies and comics are totally different things.

　William White seldom draws ultra-realistic sketches, and this thing is too time-consuming.In Stan Lee's eyes, it is different, not to mention the painting style, this painting technique is unique.

　"William, is there anything special about your painting method?"

　"Yes, I have absorbed some oil painting techniques. I call it super-realistic, but it is a bit troublesome. Normally, I don't draw. This is for testing. Cough, use the scanner to save the artwork into the computer, and then let it This guy does all kinds of moves, and you know what, Stan, if it works, I can start a big Transformers movie."

　"The current computer can do this?" Stan Lee was very surprised. If it is possible, it would be really wonderful.

　William White shook his head and smiled wryly, "It's not enough now, it's just the same, come and see."

　After finishing speaking, he took the little old man to fiddle with his computer.

　"This 3D accelerator card is just the same. However, the development of computers is very fast. It doesn't take much time, and it can meet my requirements."

　Looks like?

　The thing that made Stan Lee astonishing as a heavenly man was evaluated as a good-looking thing by someone.Stan Lee was very speechless. He understood that without strong capital support, no one could compete with the Vikings.

　Chatting with William White was very pleasant. All kinds of rumors from the outside world are simply nonsense.This guy's success is definitely not accidental.

　But what the hell is DC vs. Marvel?

　Recalling the recent DC comics, Stan Lee was surprised to find that DC is also playing with the concept of the ultimate universe.Most importantly, William White is talking about movies, not comics.

　Tsk, this guy, it's no wonder he doesn't suppress Marvel. Now it seems that his place has long been regarded as a meal by others.

　A little resentful and at the same time a little gratified, you have made the richest man miss you so much, you can imagine how big Marvel's potential will be.

　William White's requirements for Marvel are very simple, do a good job in comics, make those IPs come alive, and don't try to give up any comic characters.

　Stan Lee couldn't think of a reason for his refusal. The trouble with Marvel is that there are no people who are good at management, no long-term planning, and no money to squander.

　If it is acquired, these current problems will no longer become problems.Without those blind investments, it is not difficult for Marvel to achieve profitability, and it is not the responsibility of comic studios for those TV series and movies to hit the street.

　If the most stubborn little old man doesn't object, the others will naturally have nothing to say. All they care about is their interests.And William White's bid was 30% higher than that Wall Street bastard.

　Since it was not acquired by a listed company, the transaction was simple and outrageous, almost like buying a car.

　The auction house on Lanai Island was unveiled, and the invited guests were naturally rich or expensive.Thinking of the grand opening of the golf course, many people began to get excited.

　The Celestial Dynasty doesn't need to invite this time. They have a heavy task of attracting foreign investment, so they naturally need to come over to promote it.

　"Tsk, Suzuki, tell me about it. This time there is a charity auction with the theme of donating African food. The International Food Program is responsible for the operation of the funds. If it is convenient, it is best to donate an antique in your own name."

　"Okay, boss, I see."

　William White's idea is very simple, it's okay to swipe your face, and you can also attract investment. You must have a reason to attend.In a few decades, I believe it will not be necessary.That was the time period for local tyrants to buy the whole world, but now is not the time.

　These commercial activities of Laomei are sometimes very hypocritical.It's not that you officials cannot participate. First, you need to be invited, and second, you must do something meaningful.

　Well, it makes sense for you to say that I am pulling investment.You can only go back and talk slowly about this. If you say so directly, the organizer will be very embarrassed.

　In fact, whether it is a member of the royal family of John Bull or a business representative of the foot basin, it is almost the same way.What William White is doing is a charity auction. You can't think of it as an informal meeting of the leaders. It's a completely different matter.

　As time approaches, Lanai Island is getting more and more lively. If it weren't for the fact that two five-star hotels have been built, it would be really difficult to arrange so many people.

　A deserted island with only a few pineapples turned out to be worth every penny, which drove a group of real estate developers crazy with envy. Unfortunately, they couldn't share it.

　The wealthy class in the United States likes farming very much, and they don’t like to toss about in the country, because the relevant laws are relatively perfect, even if it is your private property, you will not be allowed to mess around.

　Some places in South America don't matter, small islands in the Caribbean Sea are also very random, you can even install missile defense systems, as long as someone is willing to sell them.

　It is a pity that there are many people who like farming, but very few of them are successful. They basically make a mess, and then leave a mess and run away.

　Looking at Lanai Island, not to mention the 200 million dollars for a ball card, the so-called annual maintenance fee is also an amazing income.It's all right now, the richest man felt that it was too deserted, so he actually held another auction.

　Nima, do you want the auction to be held so far away? No matter where you fly from, it will take nearly ten hours, and some places are even farther away.

　The most bizarre thing is that there are no flights.It’s okay if you have a private jet. If not, you can only go to Hawaii first, and then take a yacht to Lanai.

Chapter 454 Wearing the Cloak of Charity

　If someone asks, what is the most useless thing in the hands of billionaires?

　There may be many answers, and the most common one should be super yachts.

　However, this time the Athena came in handy.In order not to embarrass the VIPs who do not have a special plane, this super yacht will be responsible for the transportation from Hawaii to Lanai Island.

　Many people don't use private planes. It's not that they don't have American knives, it's that their status is inconvenient.Officials and members of the royal family still need to pay attention in this regard.

　Even if it is a charity auction, you can only participate in a private capacity, which is a matter of principle.If it's just a commercial auction, it would be very wrong for you to show up there.

　Some people said that if you run a charity auction for wool, and you have no money to make, you may have to pay a lot of money.

　Hehe, that's not what you said. There is a problem of influence here. If you do a good start, you will be popular in the future.If the quality is not high enough, people might as well play in Europe, why come to a small island.

　To put it bluntly, no matter what kind of private island you are, it is also the territory of the United States. You will never be allowed to engage in any contraband, and the tax you should pay must not be less than a dime.

　Then, the only attractive thing is that the guests who come here to participate in the auction are of a high level.The charity auction is just an addition. After this auction is over, it will naturally be a commercial auction.

　Needless to say, charity auctions are similar to those in the United States, and everyone is just playing for the same purpose.Even the foot basin people who hated gods and ghosts did not recklessly increase the price all the way, and when the valuation was almost reached, the deal was announced.

　It is worth mentioning that this auction venue has many professional auction venues, but none of them surpass this one in terms of scale and facilities.

　"Tsk tsk, William, the foot basin man is really rich. The charity auction two days ago didn't show it, but now it's good..." Seeing the foot basin man raising signs frequently, little Bush couldn't help complaining.

　"Hehe, you are just envious and jealous. You talk about new money and old money in China, and you talk about foot-pot money here. Hahaha, people use American knives, and I make a lot of money. Why should I care about that?" William White retorted. Well, a bumpkin family like him would be looked down upon in the United States.What they admire are the so-called old nobles.

　"Ha, you don't have to be weird, if you're not happy, just marry them directly."

　"Don't talk about it, just those guys who fled on the Mayflower? You nobles, when they got off the ship, they were worse than the Indians. They really couldn't stand it, so they rewarded them with a few turkeys."

　Little Bush was speechless. He had watched Dances with Wolves, so he naturally knew what William White was complaining about.This thing really embarrasses the US Emperor.

　Little Bushu didn't want to talk about this, so he could only change the subject, his ancestors did many bad things.

　"Then what, isn't your auction house just for pitting pots?"

　"Haha, look, in order not to make them work too hard, I delivered it to their door. They must be very happy."

　Little Bushu never doubted this guy's ability to make money. The Europeans and American emperors were sour about the money, so they simply delivered the goods to their door.

　"Damn, why don't you hold a footbath session."

　"Don't worry, don't worry, you can have this, the US Emperor and John Bull are not allowed to enter."

　Little Bushu was completely defeated by this guy's shamelessness. It seemed that this guy no longer wanted to behave in order to make money.

　When he arrived at the so-called White House, little Bush was dumbfounded again.

　"Damn it, this is a palace."

　"Nonsense, this is another courtyard, and it hasn't been fully repaired, but it doesn't affect the residence."

　"Well, the word extravagance has a new interpretation."

　"I don't understand. This is called stimulating domestic demand. If I wasn't worried about being complained about, I could reproduce one in Malibu Beach. It's just a pity that there is no winter here, so there is no way to build a winter garden."

　"Tsk tsk, as expected, the Tianchao Garden is still beautiful."

　After all, little Bushu had stayed in the Celestial Dynasty. Although it looks a little different here, it also has the meaning of a palace building.

　"I said, what's the point of repairing it at your auction house? It's fine if it's not here. Anyway, it won't be used a few times a year, just like your super yacht."

　To complain about his yacht really made him unable to refute it. To be honest, this thing is just a little smaller. The super yacht is a super yacht, and it is completely a 13.

　"It's not bad this time. If you don't believe me, just wait and see. That Germanic shipyard will definitely receive a lot of orders."

　William White is really not talking nonsense. The desert tycoon who came this time is very interested in his yacht. Seeing that, the displacement of more than 1 tons is not enough.

　Although he kept making complaints, little Bush would not mind sleeping here.He also figured it out, no wonder William White kept coming here for vacation, after staying in this place for a long time, he really didn't want to go out to work.

　In just a few days, the charity auction on Lanai quickly swept the world.The extravagant spending of the super-rich is originally very hateful, but after putting on the cloak of charity, it becomes a sense of social responsibility.

　Could it be that he really didn't come out to complain?

　There is really no such thing, those who know know it, and those who don't know will never know.

　Like the Emperor's New Clothes, it's just so fun, no one is giving this kind of charity a thumbs-up.As for the emperor's new clothes, if the story is not false, then children who tell the truth will definitely not have any good results.

　"Good shot, George, your recent skills are good. You can barely PK with me. How about it? How about a good horse?"

　"I don't like gambling, it's very unhealthy." Little Bush said with a curled lip.

　"Damn, can we have a good chat? Okay, okay, I won't tease you anymore."
