DuPont said three things, the first two have been solved, and then the old man's smile made me feel a little scared. I have been dating him for so long, and every time this old guy smiles like this, I will know that nothing ordinary happens.

"Old DuPont, do you have anything to say?" I asked in a low voice.

"This matter actually has something to do with the first thing I said." Old DuPont smiled, and the embarrassment between us just now had completely disappeared.

"Andre, I'm going to retire, but you know, I'm retired, and I have to leave the big business at hand to others. In my life, I have started from scratch and created such a big family business, so I can't throw it away in vain." Old DuPont's words made me open my eyes.

If I guess correctly, what this old guy said this time must be a good thing for me.

Since the death of the old DuPont class, Natalia has basically been the first heir, especially since Natalia's son Wapoly and I were born, the heirs of the DuPont consortium have basically been more certain. Besides, DuPont likes Wapoly very much, and Wapoly's surname is also DuPont in addition to Corleon.

The old guy now said he wanted to retire and asked about inheritance, which made my heart jump straight, wouldn't it be...

"Andre, I'm always haha. I've been doing things that I only look at money but not people in my life. I've been doing this for so many years. But since that happened, since I was a white-haired man who sent a black-haired man, I've been watching it out."

When Old DuPont said this, he paused, his face became extremely serious, and then he looked at me and smiled: "Andre, do you think I really took advantage of your danger this time?"

The people in the room stopped moving their hands and faces.

What does this mean?

I looked at the smile of old Dupont looking at his face. I didn't understand what he meant by saying this. If this old man hadn't taken the blame, what would he do?

"Drey, during this period, did almost the same thing before." Old DuPont took a sip of red wine and smiled: "I broke into their place and became friends with the Morgan Consortium. The reason for doing this is that others seem to be taking advantage of the DuPont Consortium. I am a person who takes advantage of the situation. But in fact, I have my own plans."

"This time, I thought you might be in trouble. If you have problems, the Lockettec consortium will be in big trouble. So I have to come up with some ways to help you. There are two ways to help you. One way is to stand with your Lockettec consortium. But this method is obviously very stupid because if this is the case, even I may be their target, so I chose the second one. That is to get in."

"The DuPont Consortium and the Morgan Consortium came together to use this identity. There are many things I can do very beautifully. For example, I have mastered 51% of the shares of the National Television Station."

"What!?" Old DuPont's words made me stand up all of a sudden.

Although the state television station has developed under the suppression of Lockett TV, it has developed very rapidly. It has now implemented programs in eastern US states, with great influence and has become a major concern for our public opinion propaganda. How to deal with the state television station for such a long time has also become a headache for us.

Now, Old DuPont claims that he has 51% of the shares in his hands, which means that the state TV station has been controlled by him.

"Old DuPont, the shares of the State Television were previously scattered in the hands of major consortiums, especially the Morgan consortium. How could you get 51%?" I asked.

This is indeed a tiger's teeth extraction, and it is very difficult to do.

"This is very simple. I broke into them and held a meeting with the consortiums on Wall Street. I promised them that this time the DuPont consortium would not enter Hollywood to compete with them, but in return, they had to sell some of their shares to us. Moreover, we could provide them with some financial assistance. They were very happy with this condition. Originally, the state television station was tempting to them, and the DuPont consortium could not enter Hollywood, which made them very satisfied, so the consortium agreed to my request."

"In addition, I also made an agreement with Old Morgan. After a while, I had a lot of shares in my hands, and finally reached 51%, becoming the major shareholder of the state television station in one fell swoop."

Speaking of this, Old DuPont was proud. This news also made us very happy. If Old DuPont became the major shareholder of the state television station, does that mean that at least the state television station will not go against us in the future?

But the old DuPont seemed not satisfied with the news, but said calmly: "Andre, I plan to change the name of the boss of the DuPont consortium to Vapori after I retire. Of course, the state TV station also changed it to his name."

"Old DuPont! Are you kidding me!?"

"Really and false!"

"Did I hear it wrong?"

...

A group of people in the room shouted.

Although the assets of DuPont Consortium are not as good as those of the Lockett Consortium, it is more than 180 billion yuan. With such a large part of the family business, the owner is a little brat who just knows how to walk and talk. Such news is really shocking!

What’s even more exciting is obviously me! Grandma’s, DuPont Consortium handed over to my son. Wouldn’t that mean that my son is also a powerful person? More importantly, according to the current situation, DuPont Consortium and Lockett Consortium are definitely a family in more time, so our strength will increase greatly!

"Old DuPont, you're not kidding!" I stuttered.

"Do you think I'm joking with you?" Old DuPont squeezed his eyes.

"But Vapori is still young now, how can he be the boss?" I spread my hands.

"Don't worry about this. Not to mention that the teams in the DuPont consortium are all people with two tricks, nor do I say that I, the old man, will retreat to the second line to take charge, but you, Lockettke, are you worried that the consortium will fall out?" Old DuPont waved his hand

"It was decided to start the handover after two months. Andrei was planning to take over the DuPont Consortium. Before Wapoly became an adult, as his guardian, I will hand over the consortium to you to manage it. After I became an adult, you can give it to him. I, an old man, have been busy all my life, and finally can enjoy the happiness."

When Old DuPont said this, he showed a comfortable smile on his face: "I can go out to sea to fish, or go to Europe to ski haha. I have to make up for what I wanted to do but couldn't do before."

This old man seems to be really going to be a manager.

That night, although we successfully dealt with Old Morgan, in comparison, the secret that Old DuPont, who was even more happy, could not be announced now, would inevitably have huge effects, which would make the Lockettke consortium more stable.

"Andre, now it's OK. Haha. Now it's OK. I didn't expect that old DuPont would have such a scruple. Now that the DuPont consortium and our Lockettec consortium have merged together, we can be invincible. It's the Morgan consortium that we don't take seriously!" Coolidge was in a great mood. He squinted his eyes and said, "I really want to see how Roosevelt and the others cried!"

"Don't worry, you guys cry late! But the most important task we need now is to clear the portal in Hollywood." I turned around and smiled at Gans, "I'll leave this task to you. I'll call me the bosses of those disobedient film companies tomorrow night. It's time to settle some things."

"Don't worry, boss, I guarantee to complete the mission." Gans smirked.

In this way, on the next night, both at the Imperial Hotel and in that room, one meeting after another began.

I did not let the old people from the film company come together or hold meetings with them, but called them one by one and defeated them one by one, because in this way, the effect was obviously much better.

The first one to arrive was John E. Columbia Film Company, the owner of Columbia Film Company, who has always been an old rival to DreamWorks. Although this film company became our friends for a while, the time was very short, and they were definitely the kind of dead-hard guys.

John has never been very good to me. I have always thought about me again and have never done anything to sorry for them. Why did he make me adulthood like this? But after thinking about it, there was no result.

Yes, in front of me, John always held his chin. This old man had a rare stubbornness and stubbornness. But this time he appeared in my office, he was immediately lowered his head.

Most of the equity in Columbia Films is controlled by the Morgan consortium, and the conversation between me and Old Morgan last night, the deal we had done, I think he already knew.

It is also said that before that, I was his enemy, but now when I turn around, I become their master. Such a change is definitely something that John Cohen cannot accept. No one else can accept it.

But he had to come over, and had to be full of anxiety to me.

"Mr. Corleon, you asked me to come here just for the matter of Colombia. Just say it just if you have something to do." John Cohen seemed to be a death row prisoner who was about to go to the execution ground, with a look of consciousness and a cold tone.

Perhaps he felt that Colombia must be dead this time.

"I think Morgan has told you something. We have signed an agreement with DuPont, and according to this agreement, the Lockettke consortium has become your boss, which means that we have the fundamental power to decide the survival and development of this film company in Columbia. Now, I call you here for this."

"We were disappointed during this period. I didn't expect that the Hollywood major league would fall apart in the end, and you were obviously the culprit."

I looked at John, and said without any mercy.

Johnson had no fear or shame on his face. On the contrary, his expression was very calm.

"Mr. Corleon, what I want to tell you is that every film company has the freedom to choose. For us, our fundamental task is not to follow any agreement, but to be responsible for our shareholders. We must ensure that the company can make money to the maximum extent. Follow your words, let alone make money, even the company's development may encounter threats to follow others, enjoy delicious food and drink spicy food. If you were me, what would you choose?"

John's words are very aggressive when he comes out with cleverness.

"Mr. Cohen, DreamWorks has now become the owner of Columbia. Now we have two choices. The first is to annex Columbia, cancel the name of Columbia and incorporate it into DreamWorks. In this way, the film company will disappear in Hollywood's history forever." Coolidge said in a deep voice.

"No! You can't do this! You can't do this!" Coolidge is worthy of being the one who grabbed John's braid! Coolidge knew that no one who was a film company did not regard his own film company as his life. After all, this was a career he had developed and had great significance.

The cancellation of the name Columbia and the complete disappearance of Columbia Film Company is what John Cohen cannot accept the most and what he fears the most. This is his weakness.

"Mr. Corleon cannot cancel Columbia! This name has existed in Hollywood for decades!" John's attitude suddenly improved.

"Why not? You have to give us a reason. Besides, if Columbia Film Company is all people with your attitude, it is absolutely impossible for them to allow it to exist. It would be better to break it up and integrate it into DreamWorks to become a branch." I sneered.

"Columbia Film Company cannot be dumped! This name must be retained. Besides that, I promise you all the conditions you offered!" At this time, John basically understood that in front of us, he was just a piece of meat on the chopping board, and there was no bargaining, and only chose this method or which method was taken down by us.

"This is easy to say. Mr. Cohen, we will not move your shares in Columbia Film Company, and you will pay dividends according to the shares every year, and you will not lose a penny. This is from Columbia Film Company

To keep it, this film company can still exist, but it does.

"The premise is that Colombia needs to undergo a major blood change, and the entire film company must be controlled by DreamWorks." Coolidge said this very well. If Johnen agreed to such a condition, then Colombia would really become the DreamWorks branch venue.

But John had no choice but to agree to our conditions.

An agreement was placed in front of him, and in full view of our eyes, the old man signed his name tremblingly.

Colombia, which has lived in Hollywood for decades, was finally controlled by us.

And this, just that night, the owners of Hollywood film companies walked into the room one by one.

Speaking of John Cohen's toughness and determination, the attitude of Warner Brothers boss Samner made me laugh and cry. As soon as this guy came in, he walked up to me and knelt down to me.

"Andre! I know that no matter what I do today, I can't make up for my mistake of betraying the Alliance! I also know that we will definitely be punished this time, but I ask you not to let us Warner Brothers disappear completely in Hollywood! Besides that, I promise you all the conditions!"

Even I didn't expect Sam Warner's attitude. I used to think this guy would come over and bargain with me. I thought this guy would be timid and weak on the inside, but unexpectedly, he would be disarmed without saying anything.

"Sam, I'm really angry this time. I'm angry that even an old friend like you will betray me." I said with a dark face.

"Andre! My head was doord! Really! I was frightened by them at that time. They said they wanted to take over my company. You know, how important this film company is to me. I really don't want to see it die! I hope you can understand me! I also hope you don't destroy it." Sam Warner burst into tears, looking like he was repentant.

"Mm, count it, you are also our old friend. This betrayal is unforgivable, but seeing that you have been standing with us for many years, I think there are some things we can still discuss." Coolidge's words made Samner almost jump over and kiss Coolidge's soles without any emotion.

"Warner Brothers, as a film company's word, can keep the film company's managers, can also be you..."

"Really!? That's great! Andre, I knew you would forgive me! Don't worry, even if the sky falls in the future, I will stand firmly on your side!" Samner interrupted Coolidge's words and looked furious.

"Sam, I haven't finished my words yet." Coolidge shook his head: "These are all conditional. From now on, you Warner Brothers are basically the same as Vitagraf. Do you understand?"

"You mean Warner Brothers will become a branch of DreamWorks!?" Samner's face immediately became darker.

The name is retained, and the personnel at the beginning are also retained, but the control has been transferred and an additional boss has been added. In other words, Warner Brothers seems to lose independence from now on.

This may have thought of a condition, but when he came here, he definitely had a trace of luck in his heart. He was lucky that we could forgive them with kindness. But now when this luck was completely shattered, Sam Warner's disappointment was obvious.

"Andre, can't we really forgive us?" Samner looked at me, hoping to win the last glimmer of hope.

I stood up and opened the curtains in front of the window. The lights destroyed Hollywood.

"Sam, it's been decades since Hollywood has developed, and it's time to reunify.

And for such a long time, Hollywood has not been able to tie the same rope every time because film companies have their own plans. This time they really have to stand on the same front. Columbia is now controlled by us, and there are more film companies in Hollywood that will not run away. Of course, you Warner will not be exceptional. But after I promised that Warner became our branch, your independence will still exist. You can still manage and shoot movies like before, but we have become one."

My words made Samner sit on the sofa and completely speechless.

"Okay... I promise you. Andre, I promise you." Finally, facing the agreement, Samner picked up the pen.

Next, the leaders of major film companies came in one by one. To my surprise, things went very smoothly.

Star Films and Frontier Films have not encountered any problems at all. On the one hand, these are small companies. We want to merge them, which will be of great benefit to their future development. Therefore, they are not only not sad but very happy about the merger we proposed.

Twentieth Century Fox Film Company is relatively troublesome. The situation of this film company is now like this: two operators, Besif controls forty percent of the shares, while Fox controls for sixty percent. Besif agreed to the one we withdraw. Besif was originally an honest man, and he felt very guilty about this betrayal, and he also longed to be with DreamWorks. But Fox was not very willing to buy it, and he looked like he wanted to fight us to the end.

In the end, Old Morgan came forward to solve the problem. After all, the Morgan consortium was their controller. After learning Old Morgan's opinion, Fox had no opinion, and Twentieth Century Fox Film Company was also taken down.

None of these companies that betrayed us did not get punished. In the end, the most critical and difficult problem was in front of us, that is, how to deal with the leader of this group of betrayers, Lei Dinghua.
