Naturally, Yang Ming didn't have to do it personally to acquire a film company in Hollywood. He made a call to Manager Cao of Redwood Fund.
In less than 10 minutes, a foreigner who spoke blunt Chinese called Yang Ming.
The business of Redwood Fund is not limited to China. As a world-renowned fund company, it naturally has its business in the United States. Therefore, under the arrangement of Manager Cao, the American branch of Redwood Fund immediately arranged a meeting for Yang Ming.
Come here with someone familiar with the entertainment business.
For Redwood Fund, accepting client entrustments and operating company acquisitions and mergers is naturally a profitable thing.
At the same time, it can also build the company's reputation.
Why not!
That night, Yang Ming met with the agent named Howard. After he told the other party his acquisition requirements in detail, he asked the other party to first screen the list of companies that met his acquisition requirements.
In addition, he also has another requirement, which is to be fast.
However, Barber never gave a positive answer, which made Yang Ming a little anxious.
When Barber returned home, he kept thinking about the young Chinese man he met. To be honest, he quite admired this young man, but it was only limited to film shooting. As for working in his company, he couldn't help but shake his head.
.
This is simply a fantasy.
No chance.
But for some reason, when he returned home, he thought of what the young man said when he was leaving!
"Oriental DreamWorks is not as miserable as you think!"
There was also the young man who always looked like he was rich, which aroused a curiosity in Barber's heart. He couldn't help but sit down in front of the computer and start looking for information about the Chinese young man.
There is very little information about Yang Ming on the Internet here in the United States.
It is estimated that if it were not for the fact that two of Yang Ming's songs had won the Oscar for Best Music, and the recent miracle of "One Shot" at the box office, news reports and information about Yang Ming would have been even more difficult to find.
Barber saw that there was too little information about Yang Ming on the American Internet. Even if there was some news, it was all about Yang Ming's music and movies, which had no reference for him to make a decision.
As for the information about Oriental DreamWorks, it is even less than that about Yang Ming.
He thought for a while and then changed to a search website, which was the mainstream search website of Huaxia Network.
When he searched for Yang Ming and Oriental DreamWorks respectively, he found countless news links.
This made Barber jump. He really didn't expect that neither Yang Ming nor Oriental DreamWorks would have such a big influence in China.
He squinted his eyes and read the information about Oriental DreamWorks first. Although he felt there was no possibility that Yang Ming would invite him to join Oriental DreamWorks, but for some reason, he had a desire to know more about this company.
Oriental DreamWorks, a new film and television production company in the Chinese entertainment industry, burst into the Chinese entertainment industry through the TV series "Meteor Garden", sweeping all TV series of the same period at that time and becoming the king of ratings.
Immediately afterwards, this upstart in the film and television industry successively produced several popular TV series that dominated the ratings, and several TV series broke numerous ratings records.
Some people even joked that the ratings record set by Oriental DreamWorks could only be broken by them.
After achieving brilliant achievements in TV dramas, Oriental DreamWorks set foot on the big screen, and its first movie broke many box office records. It seems as if this company was established just to break various records in the entertainment industry!
Although it is less than two years old, Oriental DreamWorks is slowly rising like the rising sun, making everyone unable to ignore his influence.
Seeing the information about Oriental DreamWorks that he had found on the computer, Barber's face was filled with surprise.
Not to mention shocking, Barber cannot be shocked by the achievements of Oriental DreamWorks in less than two years. This situation, whether in China or the United States, even if it is rare, does not mean that it does not exist.
But Barbour was surprised. He found that Oriental DreamWorks had never failed or made any detours along the way.
It's like a rocket, rising straight up without any stagnation.
This makes Barbour feel incredible. According to his own analysis of Oriental DreamWorks, if he can make a good move and achieve something every time, the blame must be placed on the person at the helm of the company, that is, the helmsman of the Oriental DreamWorks ship.
Moreover, every decision made was the right one, and the ship never deviated from its direction!
How is it possible?
Barber was filled with surprise!
Especially since he was once the helmsman of a giant entertainment company, he knows how difficult it is to make a company develop at a rapid pace without ever going through detours!
Even in his opinion, this is an impossible thing.
Seeing this, Barber's mind immediately thought of the young man who was always confident in front of him. Could he be the one at the helm?
If it was really him and he was here, why would he invite himself to join his company?
At this time, Barber was filled with curiosity about Yang Ming, and he began to search for information about Yang Ming again.
An hour later, he took a deep breath, straightened his body, which was slightly sore in his back, and showed a look of shock in his eyes.
After he read countless information and news reports about Yang Ming, the young man's journey of starting from scratch after entering the entertainment industry was simply a legendary journey for him.
Record companies, film companies, Internet companies, TV stations, newspapers and media, and many other industries!
This young man’s net worth has exceeded 10 billion!
Although it is not cash.
But this is still a shocking fact.
In China, Yang Ming has become the idol worshiped by countless young people and the goal of struggle!
Self-made billionaire!
This shows the goal this young man has in the minds of Chinese people.
At this time, Barber felt that he had slighted Yang Ming. Originally, he only regarded Yang Ming's invitation to him and never took it seriously, but now it seems that this young man has the qualifications!
Just kidding, people with tens of billions of dollars are not qualified, so who else is?
I guess that Mr. Congressman’s total net worth is not as good as that of that young man, right?
But even so, Barber still did not consider the possibility of Yang Ming's invitation!
After all, whether it is Yang Ming or Oriental DreamWorks, the advantages and influence they have are in China, not the United States!
For Barber, it was too long for him to go to China to serve as the general manager of a film and television company, and then through several years of development, return to Hollywood.
And he himself feels that these are not worth spending his time doing!
In the next two days, Yang Ming made an appointment with Barber to meet again, and the two had a meal.
Regarding this meeting, Barber was still the same. He could not deny Yang Ming's invitation, but his attitude changed a lot.
After knowing Yang Ming's self-made wealth, at least this young man made Barber think he was worthy of maintaining his due respect.
Yang Ming saw all this in his eyes. Although Barber did not respond positively to his invitation like last time, he instead expressed a vague refusal. But he probably didn't know why, and his attitude was relatively superior.
This time, there has been some relief.
This also made Yang Ming feel a little satisfied.
It seems that his efforts were not in vain.
As long as there is a slight possibility, he is not ready to give up, but it is not the time for a showdown yet, and everything will have to wait until Howard handles the acquisition matter.
Tomorrow is the World Cup final, and Yang Ming is not ready to wait any longer. After this meeting, he is ready to return to China first.
Before leaving, he also extended an invitation to Barber to watch the World Cup.
However, Barber was not a football fan, and due to his recent resignation, he was really not in the mood to go abroad to watch a football match, so he declined Yang Ming's invitation.
Yang Ming didn't care at all about this. After saying goodbye to Barber, he returned to the hotel and made another call to Howard to inquire about the acquisition process. After receiving the reply that the target had been determined, he immediately booked a ticket to take the latest flight.
The plane is back home.
However, what Yang Ming and Barber did not expect was that the photo of the two of them eating together in a hotel today and chatting and laughing would appear in the entertainment section of a media the next day!
"A smile resolves grudges?"
"After former Pan American Entertainment General Manager Barber resigned, the first time he appeared in public was to have dinner with the young man who became the trigger for his resignation. This makes people sigh that this world is really amazing!"
"From the photos, we can see that there is no deep hatred between the Chinese talent and Barber as previously stated. It seems that the real reason for Barber's resignation this time is not the box office failure of "The Deep".
It may be due to the conflict between Barbour and Mr. Congressman that has been rumored!"
...
This American media analyzed and commented from various angles on the scene where Barber and Yang Ming had a meal and had a pleasant conversation.
Previously, the reason for Barber's resignation has been believed by everyone in Hollywood to be because of the failure of the movie "Deep Sea". In other words, the failure of this movie was one of the very important reasons.
Yang Ming, who caused the box office failure of "Deep Sea", was one of the triggers.
In particular, this was also involved in the dispute between Yang Ming and Pan American Entertainment's artists. Before this, all parties in Hollywood believed that Barber was forced to resign due to these reasons.
But now it seems that everything is not that simple.
It is very possible that Congressman Coakley burned bridges, saw that everything at Pan American Entertainment was on track, and then saw that Barber had too much authority in the company, so he made the decision to purge Barber.
Media all over the world have the same virtue, which is not to be afraid of big things, but to be afraid of small things.
After the media came to the conclusion that Coakley was worried about his authority and purged Barber, it also disclosed the differences and grievances between Coakley and Barber through reports from various sources.
When the photo of Yang Ming and Barber having dinner and the news of the "purge" were reported by this media.
It immediately caused a sensation throughout Hollywood!
