"Time Warner is not Viacom."
Central Hilton.In the lounge at the back of the Golden Hall.Jeff said to Abel emphatically again.Abel's answer was the same: "I'm not interested in Time Warner's shares!"
”Jeff breathed a sigh of relief.He looked at Abel and whispered, "Okay."
Then Mr.
Sephorosa.Why do you want to lend money to Time Warner?
What do you want from Time Warner's side?
Don't say you don't ask for anything in return, I don't believe it, and I believe you won't believe it!
”"I understand."
Abel reclined on the comfortable sofa, opposite Time Warner's senior executives led by Jeff, and on the left and right were several senior executives of Wells Fargo.The high-end cocktail party jointly organized by Time Warner and Wells Fargo has come to an end.They were private and had another meeting.The goal of the meeting was naturally to talk about the words Abel said to Jeff at the reception.Abel was willing to lend money to Time Warner.Time Warner is so mixed up that it wants to issue corporate bonds, and their need for capital is of course extremely hungry.Or it should be said that in this world, except for Apple and state-owned enterprises in some countries.There is no company that is not hungry for money.This hunger is a driving force for the normal progress of the company.A finger tapped a few times on the sofa, and Abel pondered for a moment: "The funds I can provide to Time Warner are estimated to be $3 billion to $5 billion!"
”Jeff and several Times Warner executives were blinded.$3 billion or $5 billion.If it could get the money, Time Warner wouldn't be hungry for money for a long time.It's that they all understand.This money won't be so easy to take, even their big guy at& amp; T is not willing to take out so much money now, but this young man can take so much money, it is impossible without a purpose.There is no such thing as a free lunch.Jeff took a deep breath.He only stared into Abel's eyes: "So what do you want?"
What do we need to give?!
”"Collateral!""
Take HBO as collateral!
I can provide Time Warner with a $5 billion corporate bond loan for a one-year term!
”"Or the same terms, $3 billion, interest-free loans!
But the condition is half a year!
Also use HBO's corresponding shares as collateral!
”Abel whispered his request.Hearing him make a request, several Time Warner executives breathed a sigh of relief.If Abel doesn't say what he wants, they will be suspicious and suspicious, so that it is normal business to say it directly."
HBO, ah......"
Jeff muttered.What is HBO?
As mentioned earlier, this is one of the three main divisions under Time Warner.Its full name is: HBO television network.Headquartered in New York, it is a cable network media company that broadcasts movies, music, documentaries, sporting events, and other entertainment around the clock.Unlike the vast majority of TV channels, it doesn't sell ads.HBO's total subscribers have reached 35 million, accounting for 90% of the U.S. pay-TV channel market.This means that at least 9 out of every 10 paying subscribers to U.S.
TV channels regularly tune in to HBO.HBO is the world's largest pay-TV network, with a very stable profitability and a dominant position in pay-TV media.HBO's production of series such as "The Black and Dao Family", "Lust and Lust", "Game of Thrones" and other series are among the most popular in American television.Before AT&T acquired Time Warner, another media giant, News Corp., also wanted to buy Time Warner.It is said that the most important reason why News Corp wanted to buy Time Warner was that it fell in love with HBO.In the end, because the bid was too low, it was rejected by Time Warner.Abel is now offering to get an interest-free loan or a low-interest loan as collateral at the cost of HBO's shares, or a short-term one.Several of Time Warner's top executives were lost in thought, which was actually very difficult for them.The current Time Warner is not the Time Warner of the past, and they are responsible for the bigwig behind them.Jeff hesitated: "We need a while to ......"
"No problem!"
”"You can come back to me after thinking about it, until this year, it's no problem!"
Abel said cheerfully.Anyway, that's what he said, if Time Warner agrees, it's a matter of convenience, and it doesn't matter if he doesn't.Although he coveted HBO, he also knew how this kind of hen that could lay golden eggs could be so easy to get, even if it was a part of the stock, it was very rare.This was much more difficult than if he wanted to rob Paramount from Viadom.But if you can really get HBO and Paramount......
Gee......
That's definitely the birth of a new media giant!"
Alright.It's getting late, everybody, ......"
"I think we should break up." ”…………………… Ended a short business negotiation with Time Warner.Abel didn't leave the Central Hilton.There are still people waiting for him.Peterk and the girl he spent 15 million on bonds to give."
Peterk!
It's been a long time since we've seen each other, so we're going to have a drink tonight!
”"No problem!"
And so.Abel took the three girls who bought the bonds, and Peterke took another third-tier Hollywood female star he didn't know when.A group of people went to a high-end night club and got together again for another night.There was no pretending to slap the face, but after the party ended, Abel and Peterke made an appointment to go to Colorado together to play the day after tomorrow.They had this intention after the yacht party.It's just that later all kinds of affairs were busy, and they never got together, and now when they meet, they simply go together.The reason why Abel traveled at this time.The main reason is that the farm plot he asked Roosevelt to negotiate was finally basically negotiated.Just wait for him, the real big boss behind the scenes, to take a look, and then confirm the contract, and then confirm the deal.The news from Roosevelt contained basic information.It is mainly a core farm, including several other farms in the surrounding area, all of which are enclosed.The core farm is a farm located in Colorado called Piedra Valley.The farm is just 10 miles from Pagasa Hot Springs and Stevens Field Airport, and is conveniently located next to a mountain resort.The biggest advantage of this farm is its proximity to the magnificent San Juan Mountains and the San Juan National Forest Refuge, and the natural environment is extremely advantageous.The park has a private lake, numerous ponds, and streams that stretch for miles.It covers an area of 140,000 acres.When converted into metric units, it is about 566 square kilometers.Including the other farms in the surrounding area, it covers an area of more than 2,000 square kilometers.There are snow-capped mountains, flat land, grasslands, cultivated land, lakes and ponds, and streams.With the exception of the sea and the desert Gobi, it encompasses almost all terrain on earth.It just met Abel's original request.The matter had been delayed long enough, and Able felt it was time to settle it.After traveling for so long and staying in the big city, it's time to experience the beauty of the strange desolation on the land of America.Of course......
The three girls will accompany him.$15 million.This money is not spent for nothing!
