Dunn is a foresight. Yibei.com wants to buy paypal. What are you kidding?
Hand over paypal to Yibei.com, it is pearls and jade dusted!
The future of e-commerce belongs only to Amazon!
Dunn knows that Elon Musk has no spare money, and if he wants to start his "Mars dream", he must sell the shares of paypal.
Paypal is on the right track, and it does have the potential to change the way finance is done.
But this change is still a bit small compared to Elon Musk's ideals.
He is a lunatic!
Coincidentally, whether it was the experience of the past life or the contacts in this life, Tang En gradually gained this crazy attribute.
"paypal can sell, but definitely not eBay!"
When Elon Musk was shocked and speechless, Dunn gave his answer.
"Not to sell to Yibei.com?" Elon Musk was even more shocked, "Who would you sell to? At present, Yibei.com is the e-commerce group with the highest market value, and only Yibei has the ability to eat paypal. "
Tang En shook his head with disdain on his face, "You're right, this is just the moment."
"Dang En, what do you mean..."
"If you really want to sell paypal, the buyer can only be Amazon!"
Dunn owns 55% of PayPal's shares, while Elon Musk has only 21%. In the decision-making power of such a major event, Dunn can speak his mind.
"Amazon?" Elon Musk frowned, his face weird, "Amazon's market value is only $8 billion, I'm afraid it can't eat paypal?"
Now Amazon, the poor clanking, is constantly selling bonds, and it has been losing money year after year.
In the eyes of Wall Street, Amazon may not be as good as Paypal, after all, the latter has achieved profitability.
Dunn glanced at him, "Don't you know? Bezos is also a lunatic!"
"Um?"
"He, like you, has plans to explore space!"
"You said his Blue Origin?" Elon Musk was a little disdainful, "There are too many tech giants interested in space, from Bill Gates, to Paul Allen, from Eric Shi Mitt, to Larry Page, but let's be honest, I'm the only one who really has a dream to do a big job in space."
Dunn smiled and waved his hand, "Okay, let's not talk about it. Paypal is going to be sold to Amazon. I believe that with Jeff Bezos' eyes, we will definitely be able to see the advantages of combining Amazon and paypal. ."
Elon Musk embarrassed: "But Amazon can't pay!"
"Then replace it with stocks."
"what?"
Elon Musk opened his mouth wide.
Exchange amazon stock with paypal?
Is this deal too sloppy?
Besides, if you use stock trading, the valuation of paypal will definitely not be as high as that offered by eBay.
Dunn shook his head, but there was nothing he could do.
Even geniuses can't see where the future is headed. Elon Musk, how do you know how Amazon will soar for nine days in the future?
"I know, you want to sell paypal and grow your spacex company. But it doesn't matter, I can be your investor."
"What? Are you going to invest in spacex?"
Elon Musk's eyes widened.
Tosca Musk and Isla Fisher, who sat silent for a long time, also opened their mouths and looked at Dunn in disbelief.
Crazy?
One lunatic is not enough, here comes another?
Tang En said indifferently: "New Universal is developing the media industry, but I will invest in SpaceX in my own name. I will give you $30 million first. I am willing to pay for your dream."
Elon Musk stood up excitedly.
...
After Barry Diller took office, the biggest task Dunn gave him was to rapidly enhance the brand value of "New Global" in the shortest possible time.
The brand of "New Global" is a continuation of "Universal", except that the letters "new" are added below.
However, as the oldest brand in the entertainment industry, "Universal", let alone Disney and Warner, has been surpassed by many rising stars.
Even the upstarts like "Comcast" and "Viacom" have the meaning of coming from behind.
Tang En established the New Universal Group, which is bound to make the century-old brand "Universal" reproduce the peak of the year!
The world is equal to the world!
The company's reorganization and strategic adjustment are all long-term operations. After Barry Diller took power, he immediately came up with a very constructive solution.
"Tang En, look at this planning report."
Barry Diller comes to Dunn's office almost every day, either to exchange business ideas or to discuss company management. This time, he brought a document.
Tang En didn't care about his seniors either. Whether in terms of qualifications or age, the other party was his senior.
He walked over and sat down on the sofa. After seeing the report, Tang En couldn't help but light up, "Huh? America's Next Top Model? Is this a reality show?"
Barry Diller said: "Yes, the plan submitted by Universal Television has passed the review of the creative committee. This reality show has the value of starting production, and the model is not much different from that of American Idol."
"America's Next Top Model", of course Dunn knows it too well, is the world's hottest and hottest reality show with model elections as its theme.
Among them, there are many links such as swimwear show and underwear show, which can stimulate hormones.
This kind of reality show, don't need to think too much, the ratings will definitely not be bad!
"Taya Bins? I've met her a few times. She's a top supermodel. I didn't expect that she still has such a business acumen and can write such an excellent plan. It is estimated that she was inspired by "American Idol". ."
Tang En smiled, and pretended to look at it for a while, then nodded again and again, "cooperating with fashion magazines such as "vogue" and "elle", it can be a reality show that is fashionable for all people, not bad!"
Then his eyes turned to Barry Diller. If it was just the reality show "America's Next Top Model", there was absolutely no need to discuss it with his big boss.
"I think this reality show can have a deeper space for exploration."
"Oh?"
"Don't you say that the biggest task of the group now is to improve the brand? It just so happens that the global brand can be used here."
Tang En's eyes lit up, "You mean, change "American Model Contest" to "Global Model Contest"?"
Barry Diller said: "I think this can greatly enhance the company's brand image and global awareness."
Tang En frowned, "But the model is about to change, right? If it's just "American Model Contest", you can sell overseas copyrights and become "Korean Model Contest", "French Model Contest", if you use "Global Model Contest" "This strategy..."
"You can follow the 'Miss Universe' model." Barry Diller took out another document and handed it to Dunn, "This is an idea given by the creative committee, take a look."
Dunn was stunned when he simply browsed.
The Miss Universe competition is so famous that it selects beauties from various countries around the world and then unifies the finals.
The host of the American finals is still a real estate tycoon.
However, if the Universal Model Contest follows this model, the scale will be too large, and it will definitely not be the scale of a reality show in the "American Model Contest".
More behind-the-scenes teams, or even a large, dedicated agency, are needed to handle this.
It's like the "Miss Universe Contest", which is run by the "Miss Universe Organization" company behind it.
Tang En pondered for a while, "Creativity is good, will it cost the people and money? To run such a big event requires the wife's energy and expenditure."
Barry Diller said: "Yes, this is the crux of the problem, I have two solutions here. First, in name only, just use the brand name 'Universal', and use the "Universal Model Contest" as the "America Model Contest" ” mode production, but the selection of players is no longer limited to the United States, and you can choose a few foreigners to participate to show diversity. The sales of overseas copyrights may have some influence, but the promotion of the 'Universal' brand is more efficient Get up, very little."
Tang En nodded, "This plan is safe, just replace 'American' with 'Universal', the whole reality show pattern remains unchanged and easy to control. What about the second plan?"
Barry Diller said: "The second set of plans is to incorporate the'Universal Model Contest' into the company'Miss Universe Organization', a team that does two things."
"Wait!" Dunn's eyes widened, somewhat incredulous, "You mean...'Miss Universe Organization' is our company? The Miss Universe contest was founded by Universal Pictures back then?"
"You do not know?"
Barry Diller was even more surprised~www.novelhall.com~ Dunn smiled bitterly, how could he have checked all the assets of Universal Pictures.
But it is also true, Miss Universe... The concept of "Universal" can only come from the "Universal" of Universal Pictures!
Barry Diller explained: "The Miss Universe contest was held by a clothing company back then, and in cooperation with Universal Pictures, it used the 'Universal' brand to gain popularity. Later, the clothing company withdrew and the Miss Universe organization In addition to 51% of the equity in our hands, the remaining 49% was bought by the ***."
"What did you say? In the current Miss Universe contest, half of the shares are in the hands of ***?"
"Yes, otherwise, how could it be possible for the two-knife real estate billionaire to preside over the finals? He is the person in charge of this beauty pageant."
Tang En pouted again and again, with a strange look on his face.
This Mr. President really has a soft spot for "lace".
All went deep into the production of beauty pageants.
"The production of "Global Model Contest", according to the first set of plans, is limited to North America, and should not be too large." Dunn quickly made a decision.
Barry Diller nodded and was about to get up and leave.
"Wait!" Tang En suddenly stopped him, "The Miss Universe contest is a truly worldwide beauty contest, and making that two knives supervising the producer is simply a dusty jewel! The beauty contest is a contest for everyone. Love the focus, which is of great value in enhancing the 'Universal' brand."
"Huh?" Barry Diller's eyes lit up, as if thinking of something.
Tang En stood up and waved his hand, "We want to take back the control of the Miss Universe contest! The 'Universal' brand can only belong to the New Universal Group!"
