Chapter 282 Very Weird Footprints
On December 31, French time, at around 5:40 in the evening, in the large estate of the first family outside Paris, the conversation between Ron and his son was still going on.
The old man said: "This person with a wonderful idea may be your opponent in twenty years."
Ron's face straightened, "I see."
"What else?" asked the old man.
"No more," said Ron, "that's all."
The old man said: "Then tell me your overall impression of Mrs. Miko Miyamoto's family."
"The Miyamoto family gives me a very warm feeling." Ron said, "Miyamoto and his wife cook for the family by themselves, and I heard that Mrs. Miko also sews clothes for the family by herself. For rich people like them, This is really rare."
"It turns out that if you have more time in life, you will naturally have less time for work, so Mrs. Miko will relax her control over the market later." The old man said, and then asked, "Are you sorry for the Miyamoto family not living in a beautiful place?" How do you feel, and that Mei Dai restaurant?"
Ron thought for a while and said, "Perhaps in order to teach Miss Mei Daizi, she has been working as a waiter in Mei Dai Restaurant."
"It's possible." The old man said to himself.
At this time, there was a knock on the door. After the old man agreed, a person came in with a document and went out again.
After opening it, the old man said, "It's Mr. Bartley's document." Then he put the document on the table and motioned Ron to read it.
Ron read out the important content, "Enoch Bartley, from Detroit, USA, aged 35. His father was American and died early. His mother was from Bavaria, Germany, and died of illness in 1980. Eighteen-year-old Bartley did not go to university, but went to his mother's hometown of Bavaria. At the age of twenty, he went to work in a branch of the Swiss Union Bank. He resigned in April 1983, and then drove an OB van all over Europe I bought things and sent them to Japan, mostly special snacks and toys from various places. During this time, I met my current fiancée, a Swiss who is two years younger than him, Anne Ferdinand. At the end of 1985, he and Miss Anne went to Hollywood in the United States.”
Ron said: "There is no incident in November 1985, so I guess it hasn't been found out."
"It's normal." The old man smiled, then looked at the time and said, "Continue."
"Mr. Bartley failed to buy Disney Films, and instead bought Michael United Films from the Mega Group, which has shifted its focus to the casino industry, for the cartoon Mouse and Cat. So far, this cartoon is still in the It publishes one episode of TV a week and one movie a year. Then it acquired Feixun Animation, Power Comics, Detective Comics and other small companies. They will publish more than six episodes of cartoons every week. It is a new anime adapted from the manga and a sequel to the original anime."
"Mr. Bartley then began to acquire the Biya Broadcasting Company, which was in trouble, but the Trade Commission did not approve his acquisition of the Biya Star Film Company under the Biya Broadcasting Company, and the Biya Star Film Company became independent. Half a year later , he completed the acquisition of Biya Broadcasting Corporation, during which he also acquired Lucca Films. The news and broadcasting department of the broadcasting company has been independent. The Teer news and broadcasting department joined the Generation Chinese Music Group in 1995, and the Biya news and broadcasting department will also join the Biya record company next year and then merge into the Via Group. Now Migao Entertainment Group has nearly 300 large and small TV stations in the United States, but only the Los Angeles TV station is directly affiliated.
The other TV stations have been rented out, and these TV stations have now formed an alliance called the American Television Alliance to jointly use the cable TV and satellite resources provided by Migao Entertainment Group at a low price, and Migao Entertainment Group has the priority to purchase their works . "
"In 1988, Mr. Bartley bought the Palla Films from Western Industries and 50 per cent of United Pictures Cinemas from the Palla Films. The Commission sued him, and later Because Mi Gao Entertainment Group has a low share in the film market, he got away. In 1995, he acquired the Global Film Company from Matsushita Electric, and acquired the rest of United Pictures Cinemas from the Global Film Company. He got 50% of the shares and got the complete United Cinemas. The committee sued him again, and the result was the same as in 1988, because he got away with a low share in the film market."
"Mr. Bartley set up a good mood year-end bonus after being sued for the first time and escaped, each employee was 30,000 US dollars. After being sued and escaped for the second time, Mr. Bartley said that he was in a bad mood and refused to issue the bonus. The employees of the group went to ask for compensation from the state government. In the end, the judge made ten jokes in a row to make Mr. Bartley laugh, and Mr. Bartley issued the money." Ron laughed, "I think Mr. Bartley may not manage the group well. It was intentional, to reduce market share so that it could buy a film company."
"This bonus is very interesting." The old man laughed.
"Since Mr. Bartley came to Hollywood, he has spent more than 50 billion U.S. dollars. The main thing is that he spent nearly 40 billion U.S. dollars on high-priced acquisitions of these companies, and spent more than 5 billion U.S. dollars on workers' wages. Among them, the good mood The year-end bonus was 2.1 billion dollars, and more than 2 billion dollars was spent on the construction and renovation of facilities, including three TV satellites, which cost 1.2 billion dollars, in order to expand the former Hollywood Studios and Florida Studios under the name of the global film company. 300 million US dollars to buy land. It cost more than 2 billion US dollars to buy out the copyrights of these companies’ previous works.” Ron said, “The latest news is that he is now acquiring the Neus Shipyard.”
"Is that the shipyard that builds the aircraft carrier?" the old man said, "I would be interested in this, so Miss Mei Daizi asked him to buy it."
"It seems so," said Ron.
At this time, the phone rang, and the old man regained his spirits. He glanced at the time, it was just after six o'clock, and then he picked up the phone and asked, "How's it going, did you take any pictures?"
"No, sir, he probably went down from the top of the mountain before the satellite arrived."
The old man asked suspiciously: "Then, you are calling..."
"Sir, according to what you mean, we used the most primitive wiretapping method. We buried receivers in the snow on the top of the surrounding mountains, and then hid two hundred meters away. Later, someone secretly recorded his voice. "
The old man was overjoyed: "What did he say?"
"Don't understand, I'll play it for you."
"Just wait a moment," said the old man, and then said to Ron, "Go and pull your elder brother over."
Ron said: "Okay, Father." He put down the materials and went.
The old man said to the phone: "You ask the person who heard the voice to explain in detail."
"Yes, sir. You, tell me."
"Yes, sir. At your command, I have been hiding two hundred meters away and did not look there, so I didn't see anything. I just heard it through the megaphone just after six o'clock in the afternoon, French time. The voice, it seems that there are only two or three sentences, and then it's gone."
The old man asked: "By the way, there was a heavy snowfall near the Himalayas where you were a few days ago? Did you find any footprints?"
"Yes, sir. But it is very strange. His footprints are very shallow. There is no way to confirm the information such as height and weight. We only know that they are flat shoes, maybe straw sandals. Also, sir, except for the place where he stood, he left There is only one footprint in these footprints, and after seven or eight meters, there will be another footprint."
"Well, it seems that his shoes are very powerful." The old man said, "This matter must be kept secret, don't tell it."
"Yes, sir."……
