Chapter 870 Canal+ Group
“Either you take action now, or you wait two or three years before taking action.”
Xu Liang made a continuing gesture.
“Vivendi has continuously sold off Veolia’s equity in the past two years and cashed out a large amount of funds. All of this money has been used in mergers and acquisitions in the pan-entertainment industry such as Internet companies and game companies.
< br>This also caused the rapid rise in Vidywang's stock price.
But you also know that this kind of mergers and acquisitions without integration are fine when the economy is up. Once a crisis occurs, the company's internal conflicts will quickly break out.
Although it will not go bankrupt, it will also impact Vivendi's stock price.
This is the easiest time to acquire. ”
Xu Liang nodded, Huo Yan’s judgment was generally correct.
In the last life, Vivendi sold off Universal and Blizzard, making a lot of money. Coupled with the advent of the mobile era, Universal Music Group's revenue has skyrocketed and its valuation has doubled.
This was offset by losses in businesses such as Havas News Agency and Vivendi Network.
But now Universal and Blizzard have both been acquired by him.
It’s hard to say whether Vivendi can still be as moisturizing as in the previous life.
So, the best opportunity to acquire Vivendi is actually the subprime mortgage crisis or the European debt crisis.
But there were too many goals at that time, and he couldn't spare time to deal with Vivendi.
Therefore, if we can push forward earlier, it is better to push forward earlier.
However, according to the analysis of the two people, the most suitable asset for him to acquire in Vivendi is actually the Canal+ Group.
It was originally founded in 1984 as a French station.
It has TV stations and satellite TV, also known as TV network integration.
Its ratings in France are not high, only 7.2%, which is far inferior to the French National Television Group, the Bouygues Group that owns France Televisions 1, and the RTL Group that owns France Television 6.
The real value of Canal+ is its satellite television network.
Especially pay movie channels and pay TV channels.
Available in more than 40 countries and regions including France, Spain, and the Netherlands, it is the largest pay TV station in Europe.
But Canal+ Group not only owns the TV business, it is also the second largest film and television manufacturer in Europe.
TV series such as "The Day" and "Paris Etc.", as well as the famous cartoon "Patin Bear", are all works of the Canal+ Group.
With the satellite TV network as a platform, Canal+ Group is naturally involved in the advertising business.
So satellite TV, film and television drama production, and advertising combined together are the entire Canal+ Group.
“It would be great if we only acquired the Canal+ Group.”
Xu Liang said.
He has little interest in Vivendi Network and Havas News Agency.
Although the latter holds a large amount of copyright.
But Hongmeng Literature (iBook) French station is also accumulating a large amount of literary copyrights, and there are many excellent ones, which are enough to develop film and television dramas.
"Lu Hui, please make an appointment with Jean Foch and Vincent Bolore for me."
One of these two people is the CEO of Vivendi, and the other is the board of directors of Vivendi Chairman and Vivendi’s largest shareholder.
Whether it is the acquisition of Vivendi or the Canal+ Group, it cannot do without them.
"Okay."
Xu Liang stood up and waved to Huo Yan.
“I haven’t played billiards for a long time. Would you like to play two shots with me?”
“Okay.”
Sports activities can promote the secretion of dopamine and effectively pull in dopamine. mutual relations and enhance friendship.
Plays the role of the ‘four irons of life’.
After two hours of fighting, Huo Yan was sent away.
"Brother-in-law, do you think I look beautiful in this outfit?"
Like a fluttering butterfly, after spinning around in a circle, the beauty looked over eagerly.
Xu Liang showed appreciation.
The light pink cotton T-shirt not only highlights the fullness of the upper body, but also modifies the waistline beautifully.
The twigs bear fruit, which is really attractive.
The lower body is a pair of loose white nine-point pants, paired with white casual travel shoes.
The whole person looks young, beautiful and full of vitality.
“Not bad, very beautiful.”
Mo Hongzhuang happily ran over and hugged his left arm with a naive expression.
"Then let's go?"
Since he agreed to watch a movie with her, Xu Liang didn't intend to break his promise.
After simply cleaning up, the two went out quickly.
Under Mo Hongzhuang’s guidance, the two soon arrived at a cinema in downtown London.
Look at the people queuing up.
“Not a private box?”
He has many bodyguards with him.
“Oh, I forgot.”
Mo Hongzhuang said annoyed.
She only planned to watch a movie with her lover and brother-in-law and enjoy the world between them. She didn't think much about it at all.
"How about we change now?"
"Forget it, we're here." He waved to Lu Hui.
“Boss.”
Handed over the two tickets, “Buy the tickets for this event and buy the back row as well.”
"Okay."
Money can make the world go round, and Lu Hui soon got it done.
Because it wasn’t time to enter yet, I found a corner and sat down.
Other bodyguards were also sitting around in twos and threes.
They are dressed in ordinary clothes. Although they have a unique temperament, no one will notice them unless they are distinguished carefully.
"Brother, look?"
"What are you looking at?"
"There is a beautiful woman."
"Where is it?"
"Over there. Wow, what a great figure!”
It was rare to hear Mandarin spoken in a foreign country, so Xu Liang subconsciously turned his head and looked over.
Diagonally across a row of seats, one fat and one thin, two young men appeared in front of them. Both of them wore glasses, and noticing the look in his eyes, the fat man smiled coquettishly.
“Brother, your girlfriend is so beautiful.”
Looking at Xu Liang’s expressionless face, I thought he was just a foreigner with a Chinese face and did not continue. .
Pull the companion next to you.
“Stop looking, be careful if someone beats you up.”
The thin man noticed Xu Liang’s strong figure and wisely did not refute.
“Brother-in-law, these two are so interesting.”
Mo Hongzhuang also noticed the two of them, and immediately leaned into Xu Liang’s ear and said with a smile.
"Interesting? Is it interesting to praise you just a few times?"
"Hehe, brother-in-law won't be jealous, right?"
"You have been eaten by brother-in-law, why should I be jealous?" . ”
“Disgusting.”
Looking at the two flirting and eating a mouthful of dog food, the fat and thin duo reluctantly looked away.
"Brother, they say overseas is good, but I didn't think it was any better during my trip here.
There was a second-hand guy from the suburbs of London in our dormitory who showed off to me his new pull switch.
It's just a piece of wire with a copper knot attached to it.
Click, pull it, and the light will turn on; click, pull it again, and the light will go out.
Things that have been eliminated in our hometown.
In his mouth, it became a high-end product, a new invention of the 21st century.
This big fool still thinks that China is still lighting oil lamps. "The thin man muttered.
The fat man waved his hands, as if he had come over.
"What's the matter? Last year I rented a house outside, and the bathroom used a double-faucet single-basin bathroom basin.
One comes out with cold water and the other with hot water.
The two of them came out of the water together, filled it up, and then used the water to wash their faces.
Be careful when twisting the water, especially in winter, watering requires certain skills.
Because the cold water from the cold tap can freeze you to death, and the hot water from the hot tap can burn you to death. Poor technique can easily lead to frostbite on the left hand and blisters on the right hand.
If I talk too much, I will cry. "
The fat man shook his head, looking like he couldn't bear to look back on the past.
"Woot, is the UK so bad?"
"Italy and France are not bad either."
The fat man became more flexible and gloated.
“Last time I heard from a friend who came here to travel that Italy and France are still buying sit-down washbasins.
It’s like a small toilet. People sit on it astride it and unscrew it. Turn on the faucet and when the water is full, use the water to wash your butt, so you don’t have to take a shower.”
The thin man was stunned, "Is there any causal relationship between washing buttocks and taking a bath?"
The fat man shrugged, and then said: "When you go to other European countries in the future, don't rent an old house like that, just like in fairy tales That kind of thing."
"Why?" the thin man asked curiously.
“The wooden houses in South Germany have almost no sound insulation. Even if you fart even if you take a shower, the neighbors next door can hear what you had for dinner.
If it is late and you are still washing in a hurry, the neighbors next door will call the police or complain about you
If your air conditioner is left on after 10:30 pm, your neighbors will complain to you if they are in a bad mood. "
"So perverted? "
"The perverted one is in the back.
When you are lucky enough to have an affair and return to the hotel to start a movement of great harmony in life.
Congratulations, the entire hotel can listen to music for free.
If you are unlucky, you will hear the collective harmony of a large group of people partying together. ”
For a moment, a picture emerged in the thin man’s mind.
He was hugging the big horse and starting a fight in the room.
People in other rooms were listening to him. Looking at the situation, someone might take the opportunity to masturbate.
It would be better if it was a woman.
If it's a man.
The skinny man’s anus tightened and his hair stood up.
Secretly make up your mind.
I will definitely stay in a star-rated hotel when I go out for fun in the future.
The fat man was obviously high.
Spit flew everywhere, saliva splashed everywhere.
“To be more advanced, it has to be my third brother from India.
The high-pressure water spray attached to the hose next to the toilet uses high-pressure water to wipe the buttocks without dirtying the fingers.
The idea is good, but be careful not to turn on the water towards the rectum, or it may cause perforation.
Hold it at a certain angle before pressing the water pressure button. ”
The fat man was making gestures, and the thin man next to him was pecking at the rice and nodding his head.
After giving him a 'cowardly' look, the fat man continued.
“My third brother in India likes to go barefoot and wear slippers on the streets. When the flood season comes, some sections of road with poor drainage may be knee-deep in dirty water.
Back Go to your home or hotel and use this thing to clean your feet."
A picture suddenly appeared in the skinny man's mind, with high-pressure water rushing towards his feet.
hiss.
My big toe hurts for no reason.
“If you want to say it’s not serious, it’s the American Empire.
The shelves in the public toilet cubicles have very high gaps.”
“Why?”
The thin man asked curiously.
“Hey, Americans generally like to take drugs, the average age is older, and there are many people who are seriously obese.
Some people fall to the ground after being pulled, and there are gaps in the shelves. A little higher. If someone falls to the ground, people outside can see it and rescue them in time.
But, when you go to the toilet, if you accidentally glance to the side, you can even see clearly next door. Neighbor’s leg hair”
