Heads Up Hollywood

The general manager of Tang En Capital is Scott Swift, but he is only a nominal general manager and has no real power. Everything must be done according to Tang En's orders.

"Scott, how much is Apple's stock worth?"

Tang En is going to play a big game of chess, and there is an intricate vertical and horizontal relationship between each of the power layouts.

For example, the chairman and CEO of Apple is Jobs, and the chairman and CEO of Pixar Animation is also Jobs!

Scott Swift said: "2.8 million shares."

Tang En's tone was displeased, "So little?"

Scott Swift quickly explained, "Twain, Apple's stock price is dropping every day. The more you buy in the early stage, the more you will spend. Moreover, we have to follow the trend of the market. Buying a lot of stocks, once the stock price rises, it is not in our interest."

On the other end of the phone, Tang En was stunned.

Scott is Tang En's trader and the general manager of Tang En Capital. Under the premise of following Tang En's order to complete the work, he must ensure the interests of Tang En Capital.

In this regard, Scott did the right thing, with a clear mind and a clear method.

However, this is not in line with Tang En's layout. Compared with the long-term strategic layout, the immediate benefits are insignificant.

"It's not okay to hold back like this. We have to give some explanation to Wall Street. Our goal is Apple. Scott, give me the maximum amount of stocks, and I want to make Dunn Capital's name spread all over Wall Street!"

Tang En's courage and decisiveness were once again revealed without a doubt.

Back then, the reason why Wall Street gave Twain the ground for their platform was because they had reached a secret agreement. Tang En agreed to invest a large part of the money earned in the stock market into the high-tech market in order to bring confidence to investors.

More than half a month has passed, and Twain's public relations crisis has passed safely. Under the propaganda of several forces, he has even gained many nicknames in the sky-Ghost Director, Perfect Youth, Goddess Killer, King of Hollywood, The wolf of Wall Street, the new generation of stock gods.

The turmoil of Disney and Fox's campaign to suppress it back then has passed, and Tang En will definitely repay the favor one by one when he comes back from Cannes.

Now, Apple and Pixar have a secret connection, of course Dunn is willing to go with the flow. On the one hand, it has acquired Apple stock, which has unlimited potential for appreciation, on the one hand, it has established a relationship with Pixar, and on the other hand, it can fulfill the agreement with Wall Street.

Why not kill three birds with one stone?

Scott Swift has long been used to Tang En's one-sidedness, "Okay, I'll arrange it right away. By the way, the company has received more than one hundred financing applications. Look at it?"

"Financing application?" Tang En was slightly taken aback, "Are they all high-tech and Internet companies?"

Long before going to Cannes, Dunn Capital had made a bold statement that it would continue to increase its holdings in Nasdaq, continue to maintain confidence in the high-tech industry, and will support a group of outstanding Internet companies in the future.

Unexpectedly, only half a month later, Tang En Capital received more than 100 financing applications.

"That's right. I'm sorry, Tang En. I'm only good at stock operations, and I don't know much about the investment field." Scott Swift said it very modestly. He was born in Merrill Lynch and is a well-known stockbroker. , I definitely know a lot about investing.

Of course, he also does not want to bear the responsibility for investment failure.

Tang En smiled and said, "It's okay, just fax a copy of the list, and I'll see it myself!"

This is more than a hundred Internet companies!

Throughout the bubble crisis, half of the high-tech companies went bankrupt, but most of the remaining companies experienced wind and rain and saw rainbows.

Although Tang En didn't know much about the situation in the United States, he still knew a thing or two about many famous companies.

Maybe... in this list, you can find one or two fish that slipped through the net?

Investing at this time is definitely a timely help, and you can get the most benefits!

It is even possible for the founders and shareholders to package and sell the entire company in order to reduce losses.

Now is the best time to pick up leaks.

...

George Paxton sat in the co-pilot seat and directed the driver to drive a modified bulletproof Mercedes-Benz to the south slope of Beverly Hills.

Behind the car sat Tang En and Sophie Marceau.

During the time he came to the United States, Tang En kept her by his side all the time, and was obsessed with her pure and charming, literary and romantic feeling.

After pushing the door and getting off the car, several real estate agents came to greet him immediately.

This is a mansion selected by George Paxton according to Tang En's request.

Tang En's current house is rented. The environment is very good and the facilities are complete. The biggest problem is that it is not secret enough, so that whoever entered and exited his mansion was reported in the gossip tabloids the next day.

But this mansion on a hillside is completely different.

Surrounded by forests, there is only one road from the bottom of the mountain to here. It is a bit like the mansion of the richest man in Asia, Li. It is located on the top of the mountain. As long as enough bodyguards are hired to guard the road that must be passed, no flies can fly in.

Tang En ignored the mumblings of the real estate agent, put his arms around Sophie Marceau's slender waist, and strode towards the courtyard.

Sophie Marceau was wearing a pair of black pants. She seemed to have gotten used to the feeling of being by Tang En's side. She leaned in his arms like no one else, "Tang En, this place is so beautiful."

Tang En looked around and nodded.

This mansion covers an area of ​​about 5,000 hectares, and as far as the eye can see, it is a large fan-shaped blue swimming pool.

In the distance, there are tennis courts, lawns, gardens and other outdoor places.

George Paxton said softly: "This is the architectural style of the Pacific Northwest coast, imitating the manors of the 18th and 19th centuries, and there is an artificial lake at the back, where salmon and trout can be raised. The open space over there can be converted into a zoo , the overall design is very complete.”

Tang En nodded in satisfaction, "Where's the house?"

"There are three floors above ground, with 9 bedrooms, 12 bathrooms, 6 kitchens, a domed library, a reception hall, and a small screening hall. The two floors below ground are parking lots and wine cellars. You can visit them later."

George Paxton took over the job of the real estate agent and led Tang En into the mansion, saying as he walked, "This is definitely the first luxury mansion in Beverly Hills, and the total cost will not be less than 40 million US dollars. , and it can’t be met. The original owner was forced to sell because of the economic crisis and the company went bankrupt.”

Tang En smiled and looked at Sophie Marceau beside him, "Are you satisfied?"

"What's the use of my satisfaction? I'm not the hostess." Sophie Marceau said jokingly with her lips pursed.

Of course, the real estate agent knew about these big names in Hollywood, so he quickly stepped back and stood far away. Of course, George Paxton didn't need it, and joked: "Is it going to stay for a while?"

Tang En praised, "Yeah, we've only been dating for a long time, and I haven't..."

Sophie Marceau naturally understood what Tang En didn't say, her brows and eyes flickered, "I haven't played enough, have I?"

Tang En laughed out loud.

Sophie Marceau curled her lips slightly, but George Paxton said, "I think it's pretty good here. The lobby in front can hold a party, and it doesn't matter if there are a hundred people. The four master bedrooms also maintain a certain size. If different female companions live in in the future, it will help maintain stability."

Tang En smacked his mouth a few times, "Four master bedrooms, a bit small, right?"

Sophie Marceau was stunned and looked at Tang En in disbelief.

Four master bedrooms, at least this house can accommodate four female companions at the same time, right?

Is this still less?

George Paxton sighed: "Then there is no way. Beverly Hills has less land and more people. So the top richest people don't live in Beverly Hills. The residential area is too small."

Tang En rubbed his chin, "You mean...in other cities?"

"Yes, there are hundreds of affiliated cities under Los Angeles. You can buy a farm, 20,000 to 30,000 hectares, and then build a real top luxury house according to your own intentions."

Sophie Marceau's eyes lit up, "Like Michael Jackson's Neverland?"

George Paxton said with a smile: "Yes, but the level of Neverland is too low. Michael Jackson is considered a rich man in the entertainment circle, but in the rich circle..."

Sophie Marceau was a little embarrassed. Such a life was too far away for her. In her life, she would be content to own a mansion like the one in front of her eyes.

Tang En waved his hand and said generously: "That's how it is, buy this place first, and live here temporarily. George, help me choose a piece of land, and let's build a house by ourselves!"

"okay!"

George Paxton was very happy. Dunn had never been a stingy boss. He would definitely receive a big red envelope for helping him manage such a large business.

On the way back, Sophie Marceau may have been hit by Tang En's extravagant life, and she looked a little depressed.

"What's wrong? Are you unhappy?" Tang En hugged her, as if he was the older one, like a big brother.

"It's nothing." Sophie Marceau shook her head, hesitated for a while, and then mustered up the courage to say: "Tang En, you... How long do you plan to let me stay with you?"

Tang En replied without thinking: "Three months. If the project is prepared quickly, maybe two months will be enough."

"Two or three months...Fortunately, it's not long." Sophie Marceau secretly breathed a sigh of relief. No one likes to be someone else's vassal by her side. She suddenly thought of a word in Tang En's words, and her face was overjoyed , "Project? Dunn, are you talking about a movie project?"

Tang En hugged her happily and said with a smile: "Of course, I want to cooperate with Luc Besson in a movie called "Mr. and Mrs. Smith". The estimated investment is 100 million US dollars, and Mel Gibson is the leading actor."

"Then...will I be the heroine?" Sophie Marceau felt a little short of breath.

Tang En said frankly: "I originally planned for Jodie Foster, or Cameron Diaz. But now, you are by my side... I enjoy it, so I changed my mind. "

"Wow!"

Sophie Marceau screamed and threw herself into Tang En's arms. She didn't look like a mature and beautiful woman in her thirties at all, just like an adolescent girl who blew gently in his ear, "I ...can make you enjoy it even more!"

"Really?"

"Would you like to try?"

Tang En took a deep breath and ordered to the driver: "Don't go to the company, go home!"
