Chapter 386 Spending $2.3 Billion

At Britney's Los Angeles Station concert, Zhuke finally failed to finish it.

Because Zhu Ke is busy!

Busy to spend money everywhere.

After the outbreak of the Internet bubble, Zucker invested $600 million and acquired 6.1% of Mars shares;

Invest US$100 million and acquire 30% of Elon (Payment) shares;

$1 billion to invest in gold projects;

Through tripartite lending methods, he borrowed Beifang at ultra-low interest, a total of 500 million US dollars;

Later, he invested US$100 million in a group of new Internet companies;

Overall, in just one month, Zhuke has already spent $2.3 billion. This is definitely a big deal.

Although this $2.3 billion investment is not as good as that of a few months ago, when American Online acquired Time Warner Group for $181 billion with cash stocks, it was still able to invest so much after the Internet bubble that Zucker is the first person in this month!

Countless people are jealous!

Apple Chairman Jobs said very resentfully: "This bastard is really rich."

Affected by the Internet bubble, Apple fell to the bottom again, and its stock price fell a lot, and its overall market value lost more than 60% in more than a month.

"Luckily, our Apple company is not a pure Internet company. We are also selling personal computers, otherwise our market value loss would definitely exceed 80%. "A Apple executive sighed.

Jobs said in a deep voice: "The money he spent in just one month by Juke Wald is almost as good as our entire Apple company."

He came into contact with Zhuke very early and witnessed Zhuke grow from a young boy to a super rich man.

But!

But even so, Jobs never expected that Zucker would be so rich.

.........

Viacom Group.

Lei Shidong sighed: "This kid's asset growth rate is really amazing!"

Jordan nodded and said, "Yes, no one expected that an Internet bubble that swept across the United States and caused countless companies to fall down, and many giant companies also suffered heavy losses, but...what is him?"

Zhuke escaped in time, not only did he not get affected by the Internet bubble, but instead took the opportunity to short and make a big profit.

As for now, Zhuke dares not say that he is the richest person in the United States, but he must be one of the people with the most cash in his hands.

"With the outbreak of the Internet bubble and the downturn in the U.S. stock market, the situation in Hollywood will also undergo drastic changes!"

Thunderstone looked into the distance and said in a deep voice: "Columbia belongs to Sony Group. Disney has serious internal conflicts. Time Warner has acquired and entered the United States Online again. MGM was completely ruined by that gambler. Paramount, our Viacom subsidiary, is in a difficult situation now... The situation of major film companies is not very good."

"And now, he is very rich!"

"Once he starts an acquisition of the only remaining Universal Pictures, then he, Juke Wald, will become a real entertainment giant in Hollywood and a media giant!"

Although Lei Shidong admires Zhuke very much, it does not mean that he will not be wary of it.

The cake is so big, and one more person will share the pie. Lei Shidong, as a vested stakeholder, will naturally be prepared for every kind of defense.

.........

20th Century Fox.

"hehe!"

"In a month, it's really a big deal to spend $2.3 billion!"

"If I guess correctly, even if he doesn't acquire the six major Hollywood players, he will start mergers and acquisitions, film and television, music, television stations, and radio... He will never miss this opportunity!"

"Now all industries across the United States are facing a shortage of funds, and Zhuke has billions of dollars in cash reserves, so he will definitely take action."

"Damn it! Unpredictable, he actually grew to this point?!"

News tycoon Rupert Murdoch is quite unhappy at this moment.

Although he has a high net worth, or is richer than Zhuke, if he is asked to take out billions of dollars in cash at one time, he will not be able to do it at all!

.........

Sony Colombia.

"Juke Wald, we have to take it seriously!"

"The quota of the videotape market has dropped significantly; on the other hand, the sales of DVD are growing rapidly."

"Our Columbia parent company Sony Group is developing the latest DVD format technology, which will require a large number of film library authorization at that time. Walder Pictures, owned by Zucker, has a film library of nearly 3,000 films."

"Especially now, it is not guaranteed that he will increase the acquisition of film and television copyrights."

"3,000 film copyrights are definitely not the end of Wald Pictures."

"So, we must win him as soon as possible and get Wald Pictures to join our Sony's latest DVD format camp, otherwise we will definitely pay a huge price in the future!"

The senior executives of Sony Colombia have been quite passive recently and are even more shocked.

I spent 2.3 billion US dollars in a month, which is a big deal!

.........

Marvel.

Marvel, which was already worsening from the Internet bubble, has delisted again, and its value has dropped sharply.

"Yesterday, Mr. Wald's representative launched an acquisition with us Marvel again. Let's talk about your views." Marvel's current chairman Saar Polmat said in a deep voice.

After the words fell, the scene was silent.

The executives didn't say anything, after all, their situation is extremely difficult now.

The copyrights of popular superheroes were sold by Marvel; there were also a large number of superhero copyrights, which were also mortgaged to banks by Marvel, which had difficulty in operating.

How could the word "miserable" be so good!

In the end, it was Aviarard, the Marvel boss who spoke up.

He said: "I still said that we can give up part of the shares to Juke Wald, but he can't imagine how to acquire Marvel in full! Unless I'm dead!"

Aviarad is a stubborn dead-hard;

Similarly, the current Marvel chairman Saar Polmatt is roughly the same. He once said: "I would rather drag Marvel to hell than sell all its shares."

But now...

The price offered by Zhuke is really tempting!

It acquires Marvel's equity in a wholly owned $390 million in debt owed to the bank by Marvel!

You should know that Marvel is not in a very good situation today.

To be honest, Marvel's current chairman Sar Polmatt is very moved by the price offered by Zucker. After all, his current personal financial situation is not ideal.

.........

At this moment, most film and television companies in Hollywood are envious and jealous of Zhuke, and are even more worried that Zhuke's future actions will greatly change the current situation in Hollywood.

As vested interests, they naturally don’t want Zuckey to eat a few more cakes.

Especially now, "Butterfly Effect" produced by Wald Pictures is an invincible existence in the April schedule, which makes them grit their teeth.

Of course, some people are very happy to see that Zhuke is so rich.

For example: Seattle local government.

As early as half a year ago, Zhu Ke and his team began to inspect Seattle, hoping to build an emerging technology industrial park.

The Seattle local government is very concerned about the investment with a total price of no less than US$3 billion, not to mention that the United States is currently in an Internet bubble.
