Rebirth

Chapter 817 Company Development

Regarding the merger and acquisition of Blackwater Thor and Grumman, Li Feng absolutely agreed with both hands and feet. Similarly, he also agreed with the group of management, board of directors, and shareholders of Grumman.

After all, any industry does not advance or retreat. Faced with the expansion of the major military industry giants within the U.S. Empire, Grumman also wants to expand.

At the beginning, Grumman actually wanted to merge with Lockheed Martin, which was acquired by Martin, but it ended up in failure due to government opposition and antitrust laws.

Later, after seeing the sudden rise of Blackwater Raytheon, I discovered that it might not need to be acquired. As long as it can merge with Blackwater Raytheon, a super giant that is not inferior to Martin, Boeing and other companies will rise.

This will not only maintain the interests of shareholders in the new company, after all, the scale of Blackwater Raytheon is much smaller than Martin's, and it can further expand its influence. The newly established company is also a super giant, simply It is the best of both worlds.

More importantly, the U.S. government does not oppose, and may even support it in secret. After all, a single family to two independent powers is not the most stable. The three-force balance is the most stable model.

In fact, when news of the merger between Heishui and Grumman was reported, judging from the feedback collected by all parties, the external resistance was indeed not as great as imagined.

Although at first Martin and Boeing did not want to see a new giant emerging, which led to a certain degree of opposition from the government, after the supporters of the two companies ran away, they completely suppressed the opposition. .

Now that the merger of the two companies is a foregone conclusion, the next most important issue is the issue of shares after the establishment of the new company. This is where the vital interests of shareholders are involved.

...

After a brief meeting for a while, the big bosses of the major companies all left one after another, leaving behind various company documents. All day long, Li Feng spent the entire day browsing the documents of his subsidiaries.

Li Feng’s two major escort companies, in addition to Heishui, is Tianquan Law Firm. With the support of Li Feng, it has become the largest law firm in Los Angeles before, and now it is slowly spreading throughout California. Development, has the posture of becoming the first office in California.

At the same time, offices have been set up in the largest cities of the US, such as New York, Washington, Chicago, Houston, etc. The law firm has introduced a partnership system, but Li Feng still controls the controlling rights.

It can be said that now Li Feng is also well-known in the American lawyers circle, although not because of his lawyer and legal professional ability, but because of the super influence of his firm.

Of course, the help of Li Feng's friends is inevitable. For example, during the expansion of the law firm, including the gambling king Kirk, the old Hilton, etc., they all gave Li Feng a lot of help.

In the process of acquiring and expanding a firm, these people originally had a law firm that they secretly supported. After all, these people have their own private lawyer team, etc., and it is best to set up a firm.

As a result, these firms have become acquisition targets. Today, the law firm Li Feng controls the controlling rights, but many new faces have been added to the firm’s shareholders, such as the old Hilton and the old Cork.

Nowadays, there is a new saying in California, which is called the old and new California consortium. The old California consortium is naturally a California consortium formed after World War II, and the new California consortium is based on Li Feng as the core, supplemented by Hilton and Gambling King The combination of Kirk and others also shows that Li Feng has a close relationship with the Hilton family and the Kirk family. After all, they have exchanged shares.

...

As for the Tianya Investment Company in the United States, although the focus of Rutianya's investment is the Asian financial crisis, it is not let go in the United States. The main investment objects are naturally Wall Street and Nasdaq's Internet IT stocks.

For example, today’s investment in NASDAQ’s IT stocks has exceeded US$2 billion, but it has been suspended. According to Li Feng’s overall estimate, it should be able to generate at least 20-30 times the return before the bubble bursts. It was crazy, and Li Feng was also full of expectations.

Real estate companies are also constantly expanding. In addition to residential projects, they are also developing commercial real estate, properties, etc., as well as the hotel brand Skyrim. Similarly, the hotel group is negotiating with Hilton on the acquisition of the Waldorf brand.

Similarly, in the expansion plan of real estate companies, in the top cities around the world, it is necessary to have commercial properties, buildings, hotels, etc. of real estate companies, especially hotels, which are all five-star or even super five-star hotels.

There is also to increase real estate investment in China and pay attention to commercial real estate projects. On China, Li Feng has never thought of specializing in residential buildings, but focuses on commercial real estate, such as CBD and commercial plaza centers.

There is also Dahua Supermarket. Nowadays Dahua Supermarket has been integrated into the real estate group. Naturally, it is not appropriate to call it a real estate company. In the name of Century Skyline Group, it is a collection of real estate development, property, hotel, and retail supermarket operations. And other comprehensive groups.

The next step is naturally the media and the Internet field. The Internet will not be mentioned. After all, the Internet has just become popular, and it is far from the peak of later generations. My Internet layout has already controlled most of the future Internet. Diaoyutai is now, and the development of the media group is not inferior.

...

The first is the TV network. Today, the interactive TV media company under the Media Group is a TV network composed of nearly 50 local TV stations across the United States. Although it does not reach the scale of the three majors, it is second only to the three majors in the United States. One of the largest TV networks in the second grade.

Layout TV network, Barry Diller is definitely an expert, this is the old line of others, you must know that the original Fox TV network appeared in the hands of Barry Diller.Unfortunately, Li Feng appeared a bit late. The three major TV networks have taken shape, and it is too difficult for Li Feng's interactive TV network to intervene in it.

MGM, its core industry, has achieved outstanding results this year. Due to Li Feng’s early intervention, many high-quality projects have settled at MGM, which led to the sudden emergence of MGM this year, and the annual box office reached the third place in Hollywood studios. , This is amazing.

You know, MGM’s annual box office performance before Li Feng’s acquisition is actually far behind the peak of the top few, can only be ranked in the upper reaches of the second block, and sometimes even worse than the second block film company.

Its CAA-IMG has undoubtedly become a giant in the brokerage field. This is a comprehensive brokerage company spanning film, music, fashion, sports, etc., and it is the world's first brokerage company.

It is said that the other major brokerage companies in Hollywood, including WMA (William Morris Brokerage Company) and ICM (International Innovation Brokerage Company) are now ready to take the CAA-IMG road, and are already looking for related companies.

The rest, including animation, film and television, special effects, games, etc. are all developing well. They are particularly familiar with Blizzard games. The new version of the game is released and the results are very good, but Li Feng made a fortune.

At least none of these companies will suffer losses, and at worst they will have slight surpluses.

...

Finally, there is the sports business established to expand its reputation and some of its own investments, such as shares in group companies such as Yahoo, Amazon, eBay, and Apple.

These basically stable developments are not necessary for expansion. Of course, thanks to the crazy bubble of the Internet, the total value of these companies has soared, which can make people crazy.For example, Yahoo's market value has long been in units of tens of billions, and Amazon's market value has also broken through half a hundred, marching toward a market value of tens of billions.

And eBay is already on the road to going public. After all, the temptation to go public is too great. The management, board of directors, and shareholders of eBay are all ready to move.The only exception may be Apple. Apple's market value is still standing firm, hovering at 200 to 300 million.

Li Feng is still very satisfied with the development of its major companies. Looking at the development of its subsidiaries, Li Feng is also secretly muttering that his own value is really a bit high. Forbes next year may be another unprecedented one. It's lively.
