Chapter 437 great momentum

In the warm bathroom of Jessica Alba’s mansion in Tribeca, New York, hot water keeps pouring from the shower.

The entire bathroom was filled with warm steam, a blurry vision. Under the indoor shower, Simon hugged Jessica Alba and kissed passionately. Then, the girl took the initiative to squat down.

The two stayed in the bathroom for more than an hour before returning to the room after taking a shower.

In New York in winter, the cold wind is whizzing, but it cannot dispel the heat of Xinghai’s listing. However, Simon must not relax. Netflix has seen a gratifying growth in subscribers because of the launch of its self-made “Game of Thrones”, and it is also preparing to increase the membership price next year.

However, the two major businesses of NBC Television Group and Universal Entertainment must not relax. However, with the funds, the expansion of the Universal Studios Resort Group project has been accelerated immediately.

The Universal Studios Hotel Group, a self-owned brand hotel, has definitely ushered in great development. The new hotel in Universal Studios Hollywood and the new hotel project in Universal Studios Orlando have been launched.

The expansion of the Universal Studios Osaka park is also well-prepared, and the construction project of the Harry Potter park is also under intense preparation.

Except for Universal Studios Singapore, which Simon dislikes, the rest of the Universal Studios resorts are stepping up their construction. Without him, Xinghai Entertainment now holds a lot of money and has confidence.

However, the current pattern of Hollywood is also due to the popularity of the Marvel series, which has formed a confrontation between the DC series of Warner Bros. and the Marvel series of Universal Pictures.

Although Universal’s Marvel series is not complete, after all, the most famous Spider-Man adaptation rights are in the hands of Sony, and the X-Men and Fantastic Four are also in the hands of 20th Century Fox.

However, Catwoman, Superman Returns and Watchmen, as well as Green Lantern, previously produced by Warner Bros.’ DC series, were all unsuccessful films.

Christopher Nolan’s Batman series was a huge success, but the dark depths didn’t work like Marvel’s family carnival.

At present, compared to Warner Bros., Universal Pictures’ Marvel series already has its own movie universe, which has a great advantage.

At night, in the Xinghai Theater next to the Xinghai Building, the classic musical “Les Miserables” is being performed. The Xinghai Grand Theater, which can accommodate 1,500 people, is affiliated to Xinghai Entertainment, and undertakes various stage plays, musicals, investment promotion meetings, and movie premieres.

In the box on the third floor, Simon sat on the sofa and enjoyed the musical with Wall Street investor Carl Icahn next to him.

In the dark box, the view is excellent, and the performance on the stage is clear at a glance.

“Simon, are you interested in continuing to go to the European side? The euro seems to be in a downturn now,” Carl Icahn asked Simon this time to short the euro.

In the first half of the year, the nine-headed bird consortium and other major consortiums on Wall Street have harvested once with the encouragement of the White House. However, international speculators like Soros and Carl Icahn cannot compare to the Nine-headed Bird Consortium in terms of investment, and even less in terms of income.

Simon, sitting on the sofa, gently stroked the sleeve of his right hand with his left hand, and stroked the limited edition Audemars Piguet Royal Oak watch on his wrist.

“I heard that Soros made a big bet this time?”

Carl Icahn nodded, just smiled: “This is a good opportunity, I believe that the nine-headed bird will not let it go?”

“Oh, you don’t grasp such a good opportunity in the first half of the year. Now the EU’s central bank support is getting stronger and stronger, and the Nine-headed Bird Fund’s current investment in Europe is not small. For some things, one time is enough. Too greedy will cause trouble. ,” Simon said casually.

“Well,” Carl Icahn frowned, somewhat incomprehensible, “Nine Bird Capital, I know that it has invested heavily in real estate in the UK and acquired ARM, but the pound does not belong to the euro zone, even the UK is the EU. Giants, it doesn’t have much influence!”

Simon turned his head slightly and glanced at Carl Icahn with disdain. Simon used to be at a distance from him. However, in terms of Simon’s current status, a wolf who would only ride a lion’s edge in a corner to steal food was no longer in Simon’s eyes.

“The main business of Jiutou Capital is equity investment. We value the company’s growth and income. Hedge funds are just a sideline,” Simon said lightly. Soros and Carl Icahn are completely speculators. Even Carl Icahn is even more vicious. Profiting from hostile takeovers is indeed high reward but also high risk. It is completely in the heart of gamblers.

“This time, you won’t come to the table?”

“Xinghai Entertainment has just been listed. I have too many things to be responsible for. The funds in Nancy’s hands have other uses!”

Carl Icahn doesn’t understand a little bit. How did Nine-headed Bird Capital start? Isn’t that the shorting of the subprime mortgage crisis? Don’t you know how profitable the hedge fund business of Nine Heads Capital is?

“Don’t you believe Mr. Soros’ vision?” Carl Icahn asked again.

“Well, I believe, now the euro is fluctuating again, Wall Street is currently full of ammunition, and it is still beneficial to be short,” Simon said, waving his hand casually,

“It’s just that I don’t have much money now, so I’m not very interested in investing in it, and I’m not very satisfied with the rate of return.”

“Uh,” Carl Icahn was stunned for a moment. Of course, the current yield cannot be compared with the first half of this year. After all, the European debt crisis was serious at that time! Now that there is a trend of easing, it can’t be compared like this.

“However, isn’t there a lot of venture capital from Nine-headed Bird Capital?” Carl Icahn still hopes that Nine-headed Bird Capital will join, so that a large number of investors will join, and the odds of winning will be greater.

“How big are some of the startups we invest in? You know, even though some of them are losing money, the overall rate of return is crazy. Nine-headed Bird Capital is not an international speculator!” Simon’s Nine-headed Bird Capital But it is very famous, how can you get the same reputation as Soros and Carl Icahn for this benefit.

Carl Icahn looked at Simon and sighed in his heart. Nine-headed Bird Capital should not be participating this time.

“Then, Simon, the Carl Icahn Fund is interested in the equity of Xinghai Entertainment, can it sell part of the equity?”

“Ah, there should be in the market now, you can go to the secondary market or buy it from other investors.” Simon pretended not to understand what he meant and wanted his own shares? Dreaming is not.

Universal’s strong rise is not only uncomfortable for the other five companies, but also for the next level of independent studios.

Carl Icahn owns a lot of shares in Lionsgate. The current development of Lionsgate is not as good as that of the previous life, not to mention that “The Hunger Games” has no cash milk, and the main battlefield of genre films is also suppressed by Aurora Pictures.

“Then, let’s watch the show!” Carl Icahn couldn’t help it, and now Simon Pike is too powerful.
