Hollywood Starts with Animation

At 9 o'clock that evening, Zhu Ke and his party had already returned to the hotel.

"Boss, don't wait longer at the celebration?" Alexander asked with a grin.

"Come on."

Zhuke waved his hand: "I basically don't know the people at the celebration, and there are two idiots, Denon West and George Smith. I really don't want to stay there anymore. It's meaningless."

Alexander nodded.

My family knows what his family means. Alexander has been following Zhuke for several years, and he is very clear about Zhuke's principles.

Generally speaking, since 2000, Zhu Ke has rarely participated in entertainment activities;

Secondly, Netflix's celebration of this event seems to be huge, but in fact the guests invited are of average grade, and there is no one that can be compared with Zhu Ke.

The ancients said: The dragon does not live with the snake!

Zhuke has nothing to talk about with those people. What's the point of staying at the celebration? !

Ding Ding Ding~

At this moment, Alexander's phone rang.

Hearing his phone ringing, Alexander subconsciously hung up, and said quickly, "Boss, sorry."

This work is enlightened... absolutely!

Zhu Ke glanced at him and said with a smile: "I'll answer the call when it comes. It's not time for a meeting now."

"Thank you boss."

Alexander's attitude can be described as extremely sincere at the moment.

What reason does Zhu Ke dissatisfied with such a subordinate who knows the rules and knows how to advance and retreat?

After a while...

This call is over.

Zhu Ke squinted and frowned, "You mean, Netflix founder and CEO Reed Hastings is coming to visit me later?"

"Yes it is."

Alexander nodded: "However, I didn't promise him, after all, I didn't get your confirmation."

Hearing this, Zhuke became more satisfied, and immediately smiled: "Okay, you can call him now."

"Yes, boss."

Just as Alexander was about to turn around and leave, Zhuke stopped him again and exhorted him a few more words.

Extra advice.....

These few words made Alexander's eyes widened!

Alexander looked at Zhuke with a weird expression and hesitated: "Boss, do you really want to do this?"

"of course."

Zhuke shrugged his shoulders.

"Boss, are there some, some, some..." Alexander hesitated.

"Are you trying to say that my methods are a bit too dirty!"

Zhu Ke squinted his eyes.

Alexander chuckled to hide his embarrassment.

quickly.

When the time came around 10 o'clock in the evening, Reed Hastings, the founder and CEO of Netflix, came downstairs to the hotel where Zhuke was staying as scheduled.

Not long after, under Alexander's guidance, he entered the hotel suite where Zhuke was located.

"Mr. Wald, it is an honor to see you again after a few hours of absence!"

Reed Hastings faced Zucker, it was a respectful one. Zhuke was also very enthusiastic and even poured a glass of whiskey for him himself.

The atmosphere of the conversation between the two is called a rapport.

"Mr. Wald, I'll just say it straight. I want to ask you, I wonder if you still have the idea of ​​buying a stake in Netflix?"

At this moment, Hastings's expression was very solemn.

Zhuke sat upright and blurted out: "Of course, I have always been optimistic about Netflix's future."

Hearing this, Hastings said solemnly: "Okay! Mr. Wald is quick to speak, then I will say it directly. I am the founder and CEO of Netflix, but I currently own only 15 shares in Netflix. %, even with the management’s shares, the equity support rate that can be obtained is only 24%, which is much lower than the holdings of other shareholders."

"In other words, my right to speak is severely restricted by the major shareholders!"

The voice fell.

Zhuke: "So you plan to pull me into the game to check and balance the shareholders of Barclays Bank, BlackRock Group, Blackstone Group, etc.?"

"Yes!"

Hastings admitted: "Netflix has more than 70 shareholders, large and small, of which Barclays Bank, BlackRock Group, Blackstone Group and other large companies account for more than 45% of the equity and voting rate. It has seriously affected the company's decision-making and normal operations, so I am very urgent and sincere to invite you to join."

"How many shares can I get?"

Zhuke smiled.

"4%!"

Hastings said.

As soon as he finished speaking, Zhu Ke hurriedly stopped and said: "Man, a mere 4% of Netflix shares is not enough for me to take advantage of the big companies such as Barclays Bank, BlackRock Group, and Blackstone Group. You treat me as a fool. ?!"

Hastings tried his best to defend, but Zhuke remained unmoved.

Yes!

Zhu Ke very much hopes to be able to take a stake in Netflix, but Zhu Ke dislikes being able to get too few shares.

Netflix is ​​now worth more than 180 million U.S. dollars. Among the companies in the United States, it can only be regarded as a good company. Compared with the powerful companies, it is simply too numerous to list. But looking at the company’s share composition, it can definitely scare a large number of people.

Barclays Bank, it is the second largest bank in the UK, second only to HSBC;

BlackRock Group, which is one of the world's largest listed investment management groups;

Blackstone Group, which is one of the world's most valuable private equity funds;

The American Growth Foundation is a semi-profit and semi-official organization in the top ten in the United States;

.......

Wait for these companies, no matter which one is brought out separately, they are all powerful existences that can shock a large number of people.

The existence of a large number of shareholders, the real interpretation of the temple demon wind!

Zhu Ke didn't mind stepping in this muddy water.

Don't mind playing the role of a **** stick.

Others are afraid of these giant companies, but Zhu Ke is not, and even in certain business aspects, there is competition with these companies. Therefore, Zhu Ke is not worried about offending them. Especially the two companies of Barclays Bank and BlackRock, Zhu Ke has long had conflicts of interest with them!

but......

The mere 4% of Netflix's equity still cannot allow Zhu Ke to face these giant companies directly!

Zhu Ke said solemnly: "Reid, your sincerity is too low. I am very willing to be a shareholder of Netflix, but I am not that cheap!"

Hastings nodded solemnly, and said, "I understand. But I hope you can understand me. This is just a C round of financing. There will be more equity expansion and financing opportunities in the future. At that time, I believe that according to you With your wealth and vision, you will surely be able to acquire more shares."

Zhuke looked directly at each other, and suddenly smiled: "Are you drawing pizza for me?"

"Of course not, I believe in your strength, Mr. Wald!"

Hastings said firmly.

Well, this conversation did not reach an agreement in the end, it can be said to be broken up unhappy.

......

Hastings left.

Alexander walked into Zucker's hotel suite again.

"How about it, are all the photos taken?" Zhuke asked.

"of course!"

Alexander said with a smile: "Boss, you have to believe in the strength of the "California Entertainment" reporters. When it comes to the ability to capture and capture shots, they are not inferior to well-known Hollywood directors."

Hearing this, Zhu Ke nodded and smiled.

Before Hastings arrived at the hotel, Zhu Ke told Alexander to arrange a few paparazzi reporters, UU reading www. uukanshu.com recorded Hastings' secret meeting with Zucker, and also included photos as evidence.

Alexander said with a weird face: "Boss, Hastings met you. He has been blood mold for eight lifetimes, and he can't run away."

"fart!"

Zhuke laughed and said: "After the incident is exposed, it will indeed cause a lot of trouble for Hastings himself, but in the long run, joining Netflix will definitely bring Netflix a huge benefit!"

Zhuke, who owns Hollywood Wald Pictures, is certainly sure to let Netflix take off further.

Early the next morning.

"California Entertainment News" is working hard!

Reed Hastings, the founder and CEO of Netflix, has seen a dramatic increase in exposure, but he has also been questioned by the board of directors.

Reed Hastings had an extremely ugly face, gritted his teeth and said: "Zuke Wald! You really do everything you want, the methods are really dirty!"
