Chapter 347: Acquiring Colombia? Just adding to the problem

"Friends" is a sitcom aired on NBC in 1994. It is also one of the most successful and influential TV series in American history. It has won one Global Award, six Emmy Awards, and two SAG Awards.

.The most awesome thing is that it was broadcast for ten years after it was broadcast.

If Zhang Yi wants to boost the ratings of his TV series, it is naturally the best choice. Of course, Zhang Yi cannot write all the series. He wrote the first two seasons, and the rest are just simple ones.

Wrote a framework.

Of course, Zhang Yi couldn't favor one TV station over the other. He also wrote a TV series script. Compared with the light-hearted humor of "Friends", this TV series script seemed a bit heavy-duty.

"The Walking Dead"! This TV series adapted from comics produced by AMC TV Network in 2010 is also the world's first authentic zombie TV series. It has excellent reputation and excellent ratings, even surpassing the records of many cable TV series.

.

"How is it?" Zhang Yi looked at Balidile with a smile and asked.

"That's great. I didn't expect that the boss not only wrote the movie scripts well, but also the TV series scripts were so precise and wonderful. The two scripts are different and wonderful. Both will become classics. He is worthy of being the best screenwriter at the two Oscars.

You can live with it." Balidile came back from the shock and said immediately.

"When did you learn to flatter him?" Zhang Yi rolled his eyes at Balidile and said immediately.

"It's just the truth." Balidile smiled and said immediately.

"This flattery is much better than the one just now." Zhang Yi smiled and said.

"I heard that Sony Japan wants to immediately divest the shares of Columbia Pictures held by Coca-Cola Company." Bali Diller looked at Zhang Yi and said calmly. Did he know that his boss had some grudges with Sony, and Akio Morita lost at the beginning?

A large amount of US dollars was given to Zhang Yi, and after the air crash and shipwreck that occurred due to Zhang Yi's assassination, a senior executive of the company was killed.

Balidile naturally knows a little about the grudge between the two swords.

"I know." Zhang Yi nodded and then said, "Let's take part."

"You also want to acquire Columbia Pictures?" Balidile said with some surprise.

"Selling that company for several billions. I might as well use the money to develop my own film company. Although Colombia has many copyrights that I am interested in, they are not worth that much." Zhang Yi shook his head and said immediately.

"Then you still want us to participate?" Balidile asked with some confusion. What Zhang Yi just said is obviously his point of view. Selling Columbia is not worth it for Zhang Yi or Jiying Film Company.

.

"It's just to add some trouble to Akio Morita. If he wants to buy it so much, let him spend more money. It's only 100 million to cheat him." Zhang Yi smiled and said, "I heard that many of your companies in the United States have failed.

In the hands of a Japanese company?”

Balidile nodded and looked at Zhang Yi with some doubts.

"Americans now have some hatred for the Japanese. If Columbia Pictures is acquired by Sony again, it will definitely cause an uproar. The Japanese have invaded your economy, and now they want to invade your culture. Haha, even if Sony sells Columbia Pictures.

It’s a big mistake for him.” Zhang Yi smiled and said, “I was just about to punish him, but he actually showed up at my door.”

Balidile looked at Zhang Yi and felt a little sympathetic to Sony. He knew that Zhang Yi's technology companies were constantly attacking Sony's share of electronic products around the world. Although they were still weak in the battle, Bubu Greedy had given

It posed a huge threat to Sony.

But now Sony seems to have entered the film and television industry and acquired film companies. Doesn’t he know that in the field he is good at, Zhang Yi is only on par with him? Now he actually went to the field that Zhang Yi is extremely good at, instead of showing his face to

Does Zhang Yi smoke?

"The boss seems not to be optimistic about Columbia, which is an old film company with a deep foundation." Balidile thought for a while and said.

"Haha, no matter how deep the background is, it doesn't matter. The debt of nearly two billion can drag the fat into thin." Zhang Yi smiled and said, "Let Sony spend more funds to acquire. What movies will he make in the future?

There is nothing to say about sniping him. I want to destroy him."

Balidile looked at Zhang Yi, thought for a while and then understood that his boss seemed to not only want to bring down Colombia, but also wanted to use Colombia to seize Sony's funds and then bring down Sony.

It's very difficult, but not impossible. After all, Zhang Yi can do both. The products of his technology companies are now very competitive with Sony's products.

"The registered trademark of Columbia Pictures, if I remember correctly, seems to be very special. Is it a symbol for Americans?" Zhang Yi smiled and then said to Balidile.

"The Statue of Liberty in the United States is indeed very special to the United States." Balidile nodded and said immediately.

"After he spends a lot of money to buy it, he can make a fuss about it. It would be best to arouse public hatred against the Japanese." Zhang Yi narrowed his eyes and said immediately.

Naturally, Zhang Yi would not just want to destroy Colombia by arousing public hatred against the Japanese. He would also use this to drive out all Japanese martial arts schools in the United States.

The martial arts buildings in the United States have spread to other places in Los Angeles, New York, and Washington, springing up like mushrooms after a rain, squeezing the market of Japanese martial arts schools in the United States to a very small size, but there is still a long way to go before they can be completely wiped out. After all,

, Karate is so deeply rooted in the United States that it is impossible to completely pull it out.

With the help of Americans' hatred of the Japanese, although they cannot really kill them all, they can still further compress their market.

Regarding the Japanese martial arts community, even if Zhang Yi has no grudges with them, as a competitor in the same industry, Zhang Yi will not let go of such an opportunity.

Because Jiying Film Company was involved, Sony spent 4 billion to sell the equity of Columbia Pictures from Coca-Cola Company, which was a full 400 million more than in Zhang Yi's previous life. And it also had to bear the US$1.6 billion in bonds of Columbia Pictures.

.

In the previous life, Sony's sale of Columbia Pictures caused an uproar in the entire media and the dissatisfaction of many Americans.

But now, the world has Zhang Yi, and he still has some grievances against Sony. Regardless of business or personal grievances, Zhang Yi will naturally not let go of this opportunity to fan the flames.

The already dissatisfied American people became more dissatisfied after Zhang Yi slapped them in the back. Countless people protested, cursed, and even threatened to never watch movies produced by Columbia Pictures again.

Of course, Zhang Yi would not only do this. Taking advantage of the dissatisfaction of the outside media, Zhang Yi instigated Bali Diller to pay a high price to poach all the elites of Columbia Pictures. Although Columbia Pictures had a big financier,

But he had to face the crisis of paralysis.

"Bang!"

"You son of a bitch, shameless!" Akio Morita slapped his hand on the desk, his face flushed, and he was obviously extremely angry. It was not that he didn't know that Zhang Yi had done something behind his back when acquiring the equity, but out of the pride of the Yamato nation,

He didn't allow defeat, so he had to spend hundreds of millions of dollars more than expected.

But what he never expected was that Zhang Yi actually sang such a song for him.

He doesn't understand movies, or compared to those who play movies, he really doesn't understand movies. Not to mention, compared with Zhang Yi, a great director who almost dominates the world's movie box office.

However, I have to say that he still has a vision, and at least he can see that movies are a rapidly developing industry. Of course, Zhang Yi actually played a big role in this.

The money Zhang Yi earns from movies is really enviable.

It's just that he is not Zhang Yi and can make movies by himself. He doesn't know how to write scripts, make movies, and doesn't even know how to run a movie company. The only thing he is proud of is that he is rich and he can hire knowledgeable management personnel with high salaries.

Employing people is the most important ability as a boss.

It's a pity that Zhang Yi took a step back. Before he could hire a trustworthy executive and win over people's hearts, he was gone.

Colombia's management and technical staff were poached by Zhang Yi and are no longer able to operate normally.

Zhang Yi didn't know how angry Morita Akio was, so he could only make a simple guess. However, he sneered in his heart.

This is just the beginning.
