American Fortune Life
Chapter 1422: One emperor and one courtier
"Boss, Qualcomm has been aware that we have eaten a lot of stocks in the secondary market. Recently, their board of directors also adopted a stock repurchase program. I think we can start the next step."
After hearing Al's report, Andy nodded, their layout has been so long, and the moves of solicitation are so large that they are not noticed.
However, it was too late to make a repurchase response at this time. He now holds more than 10% of Qualcomm's shares. Although he is not the largest shareholder, it is appropriate to enter the board of directors.
Of course, being a member of the board of directors is not something he can satisfy, and the chairman's throne is what he wants.
"Then start the second-step plan in full, and let our allies take action to get as close as possible to 2% of the shares before the formal launch of the tender offer. In this way, I believe many institutions will make a choice.
What's going on at General Electric? How long will it take for nbc Global's asset liquidation to end? "
"General Electric has been urging us to complete the transaction as quickly as possible, and nbc Global's asset inventory is nearing completion.
The movie entertainment division of nbc Universal produces, buys, sells and distributes global movie products.
At the same time also engaged in movie ticketing, entertainment business, consumer goods sales, live stage production and licensing, third-party shooting entertainment programs and other businesses.
It mainly has three subsidiaries and studios that produce films, including univealpitures, lighting entertainment and focus film.
Sold and distributed worldwide, bc Universal has more than 5 films of various types, and the company has and may continue to invest in films with third parties.
Theme parks include Hollywood, Orlando, Foot Basin Osaka, and Sentosa in Singapore. At present, the most profitable is Osaka Studios, but only 50% of the shares, if possible, we should buy back the remaining shares as soon as possible.
The nbc television network provides entertainment, news, and sports programs to almost all American families through more than two television stations across the United States.
It owns 11 nbc local radio and television stations. The show includes more than 10,000 popular TV episodes, covering sports, news, long and short shows, and shows from around the world. Make your own show or get permission from a third party.
telemundo is a Spanish-language channel in the United States, a subsidiary of which produces, purchases, and distributes Spanish content in the United States and globally ...
nbc television network is also the most loss-making part of nbc global group. Its strength is news. Its news has always maintained the top of the three major television networks ... "
Alvitrie explained more detailed materials one by one. Although these materials Andy had already seen, the analysis and summary of the think tank was his most important.
"In general, nbc Global's businesses are facing fierce competition, operating in consumer-driven and fast-changing markets, and will compete with more and more companies in the future to provide consumers with a wide range of communications products and Entertainment, news, information and services.
And the rapid development of technology will further intensify the competitive landscape and challenge existing business models. Especially with the rise of online services, consumers are increasingly turning to online platforms to view and purchase content.
Over time, this will reduce the number of video users. More entertainment options have exacerbated the fragmentation of users, and if this situation continues, it will have a more adverse impact on the company's cable network and radio and television program ratings. "
After hearing the analysis conclusions made by the think tank, Andy nodded in a sinking face, and he was naturally very clear that the mobile Internet era, mobile phones, tablets, and streaming media business are the keys to the future. Early layout is a must-do. As for the resistance of the old forces inside nbc Global, Andy doesn't care at all, because he is ready to start killing!
"Al, help me set up a global strategic innovation department based on big data ahead of time. After joining nbc Global, it will become an important part of the group.
You can contact Carl. Before joining the lord, I need to know who I should lay off, who to leave, and find a suitable successor. It is time for nbc Universal to be reborn! "
Listening to the murderous spirit carried in the boss's discourse, Alvitrie nodded without hesitation. As the chief trustee of Andy's most trusted, he naturally knew his temperament as a young boss.
Don't look at the big boss. It seems to be very authoritative. It can give people authority and has a lot of freedom. In fact, the actual situation is just the opposite. The young boss controls Yu very strongly.
The reason why he can achieve decentralization is just his self-confidence in controlling the company.
Decentralization, checks and balances, supervision, and think tanks that take the overall picture are nothing but the hands and feet of the big boss's brain, which makes it easier for him to manage the company.
Just like a solar system, the big boss is the sun, and other people and companies are the planets of the solar system. They are only allowed to move around the sun according to a predetermined orbit. As for the rotation of the planet, it is natural to ignore it.
Ending the video connection, Andy frowned slightly, pinching his chin in his right hand, and fell into thought.
There is no way, this is not a company founded by myself, and it has undergone continuous changes in changing ownership, splitting, and re-merging during the year. It is conceivable how many problems exist in the workplace power structure in nbc global group.
Between management and management, between departments and departments, between subsidiaries and headquarters, between moderators and moderators ...
Andy didn't have the time in the United States to gradually straighten out these relationships, nor was he interested in learning about and paying attention to these broken things. He only knew that once the emperor and his courtiers, replaced them with people appointed by them, and let them help them stabilize and operate. Okay.
Even if this would bring violent turmoil inside the company, he Andy Smith has the confidence to endure. Although simple and rude, it is the fastest and fastest way to control the overall situation. What is needed is only slowly digested later.
After thinking about it, Andy took out his mobile phone and called Carl, who has been a director representative of nbc Global for two months. After clarifying his meaning, Carl would naturally have no opinion.
As Andy's hardcore, Carl knew very well what Andy did to get him to enter the nbc global board first, just as he did at the peak entertainment back then, although it was not desperate to stir up trouble, but also figured out nbc global up and down Situation.
"Boss, nbc global CEO Jeff Sucker hopes to meet you, huh, huh, he has been very upset recently, layoffs, cut programs, crazy reduction of costs.
After heavy layoffs and reorganizations, he plans to reduce weekly programming. This directly reduces the cost of the long-form TV series produced by NBC to fill the late night sky.
I just want to reduce the loss, so that he wo n’t be kicked out after waiting for you. In the past two days, he ran to me very often, haha ... ”Carl teased a bit of teasing.
Andy frowned a bit. This move by Jeff Sucker really reduced costs and expenses. When he meowed, he also reduced the influence of NBC and reduced the weekly program time. Ghost, it's like an emergency.
"You tell him, I give him a chance. What I want is to make nbc ratings higher. As long as the program is good and the TV series are wonderful, I don't care if it loses money in the short term. Let him give me a plan to solve the core program products. If I can do it, I will meet him when I return to New York! "
"Hehe, I know, I will pass on your meaning to him, but this guy has been preparing a talk show-oriented plan recently, so that you can reduce the production of more TV episodes and reduce the production cost. By reducing capital expenditures, he has fallen into a cycle of reducing costs and saving money to reverse losses. Perhaps the boss's new instructions will relieve him. "
Carl's words made Andy yell at the corner, okay, it's not easy!
