A few days later, Murdoch still hadn't moved, Xia Jingxing decided not to wait for him, and called Gates to ask him to send Larson over to finalize the A round of financing for the oil pipeline earlier, so as to avoid long nights and dreams.

Larson moved quickly and led the team to the tubing the next day.

This chief financial manager of Gates is not a good person to deal with. During the negotiation, Xia Jingxing was extremely annoyed.

"Daren, why did you suddenly withdraw 30 million US dollars from the account of the oil pipe a few days ago?

After the transfer of this fund, the remaining book funds of Youtube are no longer enough to meet the next month's expenditure. "

Xia Jingxing smiled, and said in a very situational way: "During the split, the money was refunded to the parent company Facebook. Why, there is a problem. Otherwise, you can reduce the value of Youtube by 30 million US dollars."

Larson was so stunned that he couldn't speak, his face turned red and pale.

Youtube is valued at US$6 billion, and it is irrelevant to reduce it by 30 million.

But 30 million US dollars was given to Facebook, which played a big role, because the Facebook family has no surplus food.

Especially now that Facebook's financing negotiations have been interrupted, and the cash on the book is facing tension. After all, tens of millions of dollars are on the account, after all, it is necessary to be calm.

This kind of unattractive eating was actually not done by Xia Jingxing.

If he came to do it, it would not be as simple as not being able to pay next month's salary on YouTube.

Compared with the poorest listed company in China, which only has more than 100 yuan in its account, Yang Niu is still a naive child, lacking a little bit of imagination.

That's right, it was the foreign girl who did it.

After finishing the work, she ran to Xia Jingxing quite complacently to claim credit, saying that this was how she kept her brother's pocket money when she was a child.

A second of silence for poor little Brady with such an unreliable older sister.

The foreign girl bumped Xia Jingxing with her leg, gave him a look, and signaled him to be gentle and not to be so aggressive.

Xia Jingxing looked at the foreign girl angrily, I came to help wipe your ass for what you did, and now you are blaming me.

"Okay, let's set a pre-money valuation of US$5.97 billion!"

Larson said reluctantly, if Gates hadn't told him to make a quick decision, he wouldn't have said anything so easily.

Gates actually had no objection to the $6 billion valuation of the oil pipeline, and did not ask Larson to bargain.

It was he who made up his own mind and planned to overfulfill the task and go to Gates to ask for a reward.

Xia Jingxing pursed his lips, he took it seriously just by saying that, he was really petty.

"Waterfall Investment wants the priority investment right of YouTube's next round of financing." Larson continued to raise conditions.

Xia Jingxing hesitated for a while, but agreed relatively readily.

He is very clear about how fiercely and ruthlessly the oil pipe will burn money in the future, and he wishes to tie Gates to the chariot of capital, the kind with the door welded shut.

Gates wanted to plot against him, and he memorized it in a small notebook. He couldn't trouble Gates at this stage, so he had to ask for some interest and keep it.

If Gates can grasp it, don't jump off the car halfway, and follow him all the way to the end of victory, then he deserves to get rich and don't care about it.

But if you want to jump out of the car halfway, don't blame him for prostitution.

He already has a rough draft in his mind, and the next step is to see if the tubing spends money to live up to it.

Larson raised a few more conditions, and Xia Jingxing agreed to them all.

This cheerfulness surprised Luo Li beside him. Is this the Darren he knows?

Larson's face turned pale, and Xia Jingxing didn't make any fools behind him, which made it easier for him to go back.

"Daren, now is the last question. Waterfall Investment invested 600 million US dollars in the oil pipeline. Do you have any objections?"

Xia Jingxing shook his head, "This is not enough, you should report to Mr. Gates, and make up 10% of the ratio, I promised him."

Larson went out and returned to the conference room after a while.

"Well, Mr. Gates agrees,

Waterfall Investment injected 663.33 million US dollars into the oil pipeline and acquired 10% of the shares. "

Hearing that more than 60 million US dollars was added, Xia Jingxing smiled brightly, and kept praising Mr. Gates for his grandeur.

…………

…………

Youtube's A round of financing had just been finalized, and the Big Five in Hollywood, who hadn't contacted Xia Jingxing for a long time, finally called.

Lei Shidong was the first to call, and the old man said with a hearty smile on the phone: "Haha, Darren, I haven't contacted you for so long, so you shouldn't blame me?"

"No, no, cooperation is a big deal, and it's human nature to think carefully."

"Young man, I appreciate you more and more."

"Really? Then I will be happy for three days."

...

After a few words of nonsense, the old man finally got to the point.

"Daren, I have a few questions I want to ask."

"Please say."

"After the establishment of Hulu Video, the purchase price of content copyright..."

Xia Jingxing listened carefully. What the old man said meant that he couldn't authorize it for free, he had to pay. It could be cheaper in the early stage, but as Hulu Video's business stabilized and generated profits, the price of content copyright had to be increased.

"Mr. Lei Shidong, you can rest assured that Hulu Video is an independent company and has business dealings with shareholders, and it must be in accordance with business rules.

For Viacom, Hulu Video is exploring the way for you, exploring a way to make profits from online copyright, so that online piracy will no longer cause you headaches. "

Lei Shidong on the other end of the phone smiled, "Okay, with your words, I feel relieved. I still have one last question, or my plan.

Hulu Video has an initial capital injection of 200 million US dollars, how about spending 100 million US dollars to buy our copyright first?

Now Viacom's board of directors has doubts about the cooperation with Hulu Video, and feels that this model cannot work well.

I think we can first show an attitude that Hulu Video is really helping to solve the problems Viacom is facing. "

Xia Jingxing made a quick calculation in his mind, and instantly understood the old man's little trick.

According to their agreement, each of the five Hollywood giants holds 15% of the shares.

Based on the investment amount of 200 million US dollars, each giant invested 30 million US dollars.

If 100 million US dollars is used to purchase copyrights, each giant can recover 20 million US dollars on average, and the investment is reduced to 10 million US dollars.

If Hulu Video can’t do it, it will be the two big shareholders of Youtube and Waterfall Investment who will bear the biggest losses.

As for the copyright sold by the five giants, it was originally a stuff in the warehouse, and there was no such thing as cost.

It has to be said that these old cunts are better than the ones who fight.

Even though he described Hulu Video's future blueprint as hype, the five giants still maintained a high level of vigilance.

"Okay, let's do it according to Mr. Redstone's wishes. In addition, YouTube has also decided to purchase Viacom's copyright worth 10 million US dollars first, so as to promote the cooperation between us."

Lei Shidong smiled happily, thinking that this young man is too good-for-nothing, which means that he didn't spend a penny, and gave them nearly one-sixth of Hulu Video's equity for nothing.

He ignored the copyright value of 30 million US dollars, because this thing, now everyone is prostituted for nothing, and very few pay, it is worthless, and it is indeed worthless.

Of course, what is more important is the attitude of Youtube and Hulu videos.

These two video sites took the lead in expressing their views, and then received copyright fees from other companies, so they became famous.

Xia Jingxing didn't feel any pain when he spent the money, anyway, Gates paid for all the consumption.

The money for YouTube’s purchase of copyright, the money for Hulu Video’s shareholding, and the money for Hulu Video’s purchase of copyright all come directly or indirectly from Gates.

"Daren, let me tell you another news. Murdoch has been negotiating with several of our companies recently..."

After the benefits were in place, Lei Shidong sold Murdoch without mercy.

"Darren, you have to be careful. If the need arises, Viacom's media will speak up for a good guy with a sense of justice and respect for intellectual property rights like you."

The old man's words were extremely hypocritical and full of irony, almost making Xia Jingxing laugh.

He couldn't laugh, and had to accompany the old man to do two tricks.

"Mr. Lei Shidong, thank you, God will bless you, a media person with a conscience like you."

Lei Shidong laughed twice, said a few more words, and hung up the phone contentedly.

Not long afterward, the other four giants also called in turn as if they had discussed it. The content of the conversation was similar to that of Lei Shidong. They wanted benefits, but they were unwilling to take risks.

Xia Jingxing's generosity to Gates satisfied them all.

His behavior of throwing coins also won the favor of the five giants, and they all expressed their support for Xia Jingxing to fight Murdoch.

The reversal of the front and rear changes is so great that it is enough to make people doubt the magic of reality.

Xia Jingxing sneered in his heart, this is the virtue of capital, whoever has milk is a mother, and only benefits are eternal.

He also painted a big picture for the five giants. Youtube will purchase part of the copyright every year. After Hulu Video develops, it will contract all the online copyrights, and the value of Hulu Video’s equity will also increase day by day.

The three big cakes were spread out, and Xia Jingxing gave each family 30 million US dollars in real money, which was equivalent to returning all the equity investment funds.

That's pretty cool.

Murdoch, Koukou Soso's deadly enemy, wanted to get all the benefits, but they could only be ruthlessly abandoned by them.

For the Big Five, stalking Facebook and Youtube may gain huge commercial benefits, but it is not necessarily a sure thing to win, and it is also a big problem to split the accounts after winning.

According to the information disclosed by Xia Jingxing, they found that Murdoch was bluffing and defrauding outside in their name, engaging in commercial blackmail. After Facebook changed hands, Murdoch might send them away with a mosquito leg. News The group has a unique advantage.

After knowing all this, they were also a little bit astonished. It was very fortunate that Xia Jingxing had seen through Murdoch's ghost tricks and took the initiative to communicate with them, otherwise the situation would have been terrible.

They beat life and death, all acted as Murdoch's thugs, and Murdoch got all the benefits alone.

This was also Murdoch's not-so-brilliant strategy. He just wanted to blackmail Xia Jingxing with poor information. If the blackmail failed, he tried to provoke Xia Jingxing.

If Xia Jingxing was overwhelmed by anger and chose to go all the way to the end, there might already be a fight by now.

As for Xia Jingxing, he didn't want to see such a situation, it would put himself in a dangerous situation.

While fighting in court, hundreds of TV stations and thousands of newspapers across the United States poured dirty water on him, discrediting him and coercing public opinion.

Viacom alone has more than 200 TV stations, covering more than 30% of households in the United States.

An old family like Walt Disney has a history of more than 80 years. It has been rich for several generations. It has flourished in the United States and has a wide range of political and business circles.

At the same time, each of these giants has a market value of at least tens of billions of dollars, a revenue of tens of billions of dollars, and the number of employees is calculated on the order of 100,000.

The energy of the Big Six can be seen.

When they are united together, they are quite a huge force. It is possible to win lawsuits that were originally unwinnable, and lawsuits that only cost one billion dollars may cost tens of billions of dollars.

After all, it is impossible for a shark to stop when it sees blood.

Now, Xia Jingxing has shown his own value, and the five giants can get a lot of business benefits without mobilizing their troops. Naturally, they don't want to join forces with Murdoch anymore.

For Xia Jingxing, he will be free to deal with Murdoch's attack with all his strength.

At the same time, there is an extra thug who invested real money in Gates. With such a big bet, Gates should not stand idly by this time.

In addition, he has initially established relationships with the five Hollywood giants and carried out a certain degree of interest bundling.

When necessary, you can also spend money or take out other benefits to ask them to make a move.
