Chapter 428 DreamWorks Super Consortium!? Chapter 429 DreamWorks New Year's Meeting(2/2)
Seeing everyone's intention, Livermore said, "First we will sell all the stocks in our hands, so that we will sell out the 30 million yuan of funds at the time (C."
"I understand this. Let's continue. Didn't you say you still want to be short?" I nodded while asking Livermore to finish his words.
Livermore continued: "When we sell the stock, we use the 7,000 we have as collateral. Then we can short sell 150 million short shares. When Rockefeller's stock falls and falls to the peak and valley, we are buying the same amount of stocks. Through the price difference in the middle, we can make more than one billion yuan. With the previous 7,000, after doing this transaction, we have 170 million yuan."
"170 million!? So much!" The people in the room suddenly exclaimed.
"This is still a conservative number." Livermore looked at me and shrugged.
"Boss, let's do it!" After hearing Livermore's idea, Stenberg looked at me and said hurriedly.
"Boss, didn't that person say that he would call to notify you if there was any turmoil? Now he has no news. I'll see if we'll wait and talk about it." Gans did not rush to agree, but showed a little worried affection.
After all, this time it involves a transaction of about 100 million, so of course it is not careless.
Gans's statement is also very reasonable. Coolidge told me before that if there is any change, he will tell me that now he has no reaction at all, which means that things seem not that simple.
"Boss, the stock market is changing very quickly, opportunities are fleeting, so you can't hesitate." Livermore shouted.
"But if your estimate is wrong, the Rockefeller Consortium's stock continues to rise. If we do this, we will lose a lot of money." Gans had to remind Livermore.
Livermore was silent after being said by Gans. Gans was right. Since Coolidge had no news, it is very likely that the stock price of the Rockefeller consortium will continue to rise recently. Livermore is just a short-seller and famous stock-playing person. In front of him and the dignified US president, Gans and others are more inclined to believe in the latter.
By this time, Livermore had nothing to say, just looked up at me.
"Livermore, if we do what you said, the Rockefeller Consortium's stock continues to rise, how much will we lose?" I asked in a deep voice.
Livermore lowered his head and thought for a while, and replied, "There will be losses, but not much, because the stock of the Rockefeller Consortium cannot keep rising. At most, we will only lose tens of thousands."
"That is to say, even if there is any loss, we can still guarantee the capital?" I asked with a smile.
Livermore nodded.
I'm laughing
Then he turned to Livermore and said, "Livermore, if you win, we will make more than 100 million yuan. If we lose, we are just in vain during this period. Such a transaction is still worth doing!"
"But boss, there has been no news from that person!" Gans was anxious.
I spread my hands, then looked at Livermore and said, "I believe in Livermore more! Livermore, if you let go, you can lose all your capital. If you lose those tens of millions, DreamWorks won't cross it!"
"Boss!" Livermore choked up with excitement when he saw that I trusted him so much.
"Go." I waved to Livermore. Livermore nodded vigorously and walked out of the office quickly.
Looking at Livermore's back, Gans walked to me and whispered: "Boss, why would you rather believe Livermore than Coolidge?! Could Coolidge lie?"
I shook my head: "Coolidge does not lie, but he is the president of a country. He knows that the Rockefeller Consortium is just a general situation and cannot understand the details. But Livermore is different. He has been in the stock market for so many years and feels extremely sensitive. He can perceive the specific situation from the subtle fluctuations of the stock. The stock market has changed too quickly. A billionaire was still leisurely at the last moment. Maybe he will become a pauper in the next moment. This matter is staged in the stock market every day. The Rockefeller Consortium's decisions may be made in an hour. Coolidge cannot receive such resolutions immediately, but Livermore can feel them from the fluctuations of the stocks. In other words, in terms of subtlety, Livermore is closer to the decision makers of the Rockefeller Consortium than Coolidge."
"It makes sense." Yassel and others nodded in praise.
I sat on the chair, picked up the quilt and took a sip of tea, and said, "Besides, Livermore said just now that even if we miscalculated, we wouldn't lose much, at least the principal is still in our hands. What are we afraid of? This is a bet that can only win but not lose. Why don't we fight for it??"
Gans and others were convinced by me, and the anxious expression on their faces just now slowly calmed down.
"Gans, call later and call everyone on the board. Let's hold a New Year's meeting, summarize last year, and then arrange the work of this year." I smiled at Gans.
Gans agreed and called.
At 4:00 pm, DreamWorks Film Company opened in 1927.
Gans, Fatty, Steller, Griffith, Dunar, Flahady, James and other headquarters people have arrived a long time ago. Among the six branches, except for Bala and Shottal of Cannes, Sanlige of the third factory, Disney of the fourth factory, Mayo Hawthorne of the fifth factory, and Jack in charge of the fast food industry, Baird of the technical bureau, Carlo of the factory guards, Laclau Mulvey of the Rolling Stone Records, Bizer of the publishing group, Northrop of the arms company, and second brother were all present.
In the conference room, there were crowds of people in the local area, and the scene was very lively.
Perhaps because DreamWorks won eight awards at the Harvey Awards, everyone was very happy. Before the meeting began, a burst of hearty laughter came from the room.
"Okay, calm down, have a meeting." I knocked on the table, and everyone immediately calmed down.
Everyone looked at me, their eyes burning.
They have followed me for so long and know that every time such a conference is definitely very important.
This is the beginning of the year, and we will definitely arrange the work of the new year, which is related to what each of them has to do, so these guys all raised their ears one by one.
I cleared my throat and said, "Everyone, today is the first day of 1927, and it is also our first meeting in the New Year. In the past year, DreamWorks has made great progress and all work has made great progress. With everyone's efforts, DreamWorks has achieved brilliant results in 1926, and it has greatly increased its strength in the third-level film company, and its reputation and influence in society have become increasingly greater. These are the results of everyone's efforts. I would like to express my gratitude to you."
"What are you grateful for? If the company is good, everyone will be fine." James's words made everyone laugh.
I smiled and said, "Let's summarize the situation last year first, and then talk about the development in a few years. Gans, let's talk about the overall situation of the company first."
Gans gave a workbook and said: "Last year, DreamWorks filmed a total of six movies including "Brave Heart". Not counting the Crescent Film Company and Global Company, the total profit was 10,000 yuan. In addition, the third and fifth factories had annual profits of 240 million yuan, and the fourth factory had a profit of more than 1,200 branches in the fast food industry, with a total profit of 40, the publishing group had a profit of 740, and the arms company's annual sales of more than 87 million yuan. The record company currently has no.: | Construction of the Cannes branch. With the original funds, our current total working capital is more than 530 million yuan."
"So many!" Everyone in the conference room screamed.
"Not much. Compared with the Rockefeller Consortium's total assets of more than 150 billion yuan, our assets are pitiful." I shook my head and smiled.
"Boss. If we add the funds we have at Universal, DreamWorks can be fully qualified for the second-level film company!" Griffith calculated and said loudly.
Hahaha.Stenborg and others were all excited.
I took a sip of tea and said, "We did a pretty job last year. But that's already history. In the new year, the situation we face is very serious. I have told you many times, so I won't be too nagging. The Rockefeller Consortium will definitely make big moves this year. And the Leidianhua Film Company, which they are fiddling with, will definitely be established this year. We must work hard. Otherwise, such a good situation will be wasted."
At this time, we can't let these guys be glamorous. My words made them frown.
"Dreamworks is a film company, so it is essential to make movies. As for other industrial companies, they must act according to the opportunity and actively expand their own business. Only by focusing on the foundation and constantly expanding can we gradually grow."
"go
Although we have filmed not many movies, dozens of movies that have achieved strong results are so I will first arrange the shooting tasks of DreamWorks Film Company in the new year."
When I heard that I assigned the film tasks, the director team, actor team and photography team all immediately straightened their backs.
"David, how did your "Caesar" film? "The first thing I'm paying attention to is the situation of the "Caesar" that the company is currently running and investing in.
Griffith said with a hint of dismay: "Boss, the shooting is progressing very smoothly, and the shooting effect is also very good, but the funds are a bit insufficient."
"David, the boss has added an additional investment for you, why isn't it enough?" Stiller sat next to him and immediately shouted when he heard Griffith's words.
It’s not his fault. People like Stiller have never received more than one million in filming. Now Griffith has received much more than their investment amount, and he also said that the funds are not enough, so how could he not make Stiller scream?
Griffith looked at me with a hint of embarrassment on his face.
I smiled and said, "How many are there?"
Griffith said: "There is no shortage at the moment, but I've calculated that in the later stage, it's estimated that it will take 200."
"200! David, the cost of your movie is 600!? The investment cost of the two movies and I and I are not one-sixth of yours! You are too corrupt!" Stiller opened his eyes wide.
"The theme of his movie is much larger than yours, so there is naturally more investment. David, I will give you this ten thousand, but the same thing is the case. You must grasp the quality of the movie. I will find a way for you to make money." I shrugged.
I understand Griffith's filming style so I don't mind his constant cost.
"Boss, you're too partial." Stiller squeezed his eyes and smirked twice.
"Stiller is right, David, I'm a little biased towards you. But you have to save some money, otherwise I wouldn't dare to invest in making movies for you." I joked.
Griffith scratched the back of his head embarrassedly.
After solving Griffith, I looked at Dunar and Steinberg and said, "Dunar, Steinberg, from today on, you two will start preparing your own two movies."
"What?! Boss, you mean that our two movies can be prepared to be filmed!?" Dunar, who had been waiting for the shooting opportunity, stood up suddenly, and Stenborough looked surprised.
"Yes, the first batch of movies of Stiller and Munau last year were very successful. You two second batch of movies will not be able to smash them!" I threw the two scripts written by them and said, "I have made detailed modifications to your scripts. You can grasp them yourself. The initial investment of Dunar's "Crew" is 100, and the "Bottom Society" in Stenborough has an investment of 800,000 yuan. From today on, you can start filming immediately. These two movies are best to be finished in the first half of the year."
"Okay! We promise to complete the task!" Stendbor and Dunar were so happy that they were pissed.
"Frahadi, the company decided to invest 300,000 US dollars, and you can do it yourself. You don't need to consider the box office. You must strive to win back the second Harvey Award for Best Documentary Award to DreamWorks!" I squeezed my eyes at Flahadi.
"Boss, don't worry, I will!" Flahadi didn't expect that he would be in the shooting mission, and was very excited.
I closed my workbook and said, "The rest of the director team, such as Stiller and Murnau, might as well start thinking about their next movie. If the creativity is good, I will agree to shoot it."
"Really!" Stiller and Muno looked at me, not believing in their ears.
"Of course." I shrugged.
"Boss, I have a problem." Stenborough suddenly frowned.
"If you have any questions, just say it." I waved.
Stenberg pointed at me and said, "Boss, everyone else has assigned a filming task. Don't you take it yourself?"
"Yes, boss, didn't you think of making a new movie?" The fat man asked.
Among all the people in DreamWorks, I am their backbone. The movies I directed are also the movies that are most likely to gain reputation and box office in DreamWorks. When a group of people saw that I was just setting up others to make movies, they didn't explain their plans to make movies, so they couldn't help but get anxious.
I smiled and waved my hand and said, "Don't ask about my business, anyway, I promise you won't make more movies this year than last year."
After hearing what I said, you look at me, I look at you, and you all stare at you.
"Walter, tell me about the relevant situation of your factory three." I pointed to Walt Disney.
Disney touched the mustache on his mouth and said, "Boss, our cartoon "Mickey Mouse Story" has been completed in a small part and is expected to be released in the middle of the year. Other cartoons, such as "Donald Duck" and "Dude" are all in preparation, which is enough for us to be busy this year."
"That's good, be busy. Walter, I'll give it to you. The requirements for two animated movies a year are not too many, right?" I said happily.
"No problem!" Disney patted his chest hard.
After arranging DreamWorks' filming business, I breathed a little relieved and then focused on the heads of several other branches and industrial companies. Compared with Stiller and others, their tasks were much heavier.
Chapter completed!
