When Niu Guangcheng was preparing for a ceramic factory in his hometown, Song Weiyang was holding a meeting in the capital, and the meeting lasted for several days.

Didn’t China join WTO? The Federation of Industry and Commerce and the Council for Promotion of International Trade are actively responding to this change.

Song Weiyang has a position in the Federation of Industry and Commerce. He was called to conduct analysis and discussion and also made a keynote speech at the conference. Xifeng and Shenzhou Technology are both members of the Council for the Promotion of International Trade and went to a vice president for the meeting respectively, and Song Weiyang was specially invited to attend as a guest.

After the meeting, Song Weiyang mentioned her cousin’s internship while having dinner. The other party asked Li Tingting how good her English was. Song Weiyang said that her cousin was a major in International Finance in Fudan and professional English was a compulsory course. The other party immediately stated that the United States office of the Council for the Promotion of International Trade was still short of people, and Li Tingting could go there for an internship.

After a few words, Li Tingting was called to the capital and quickly completed the relevant procedures. When she returned to Fudan with the internship employment book, she caused a sensation in the entire department, and at least attracted the attention of the college leaders, and inquired about Li Tingting's family situation indirectly.

Fresh graduates from Fudan used to intern at the Council for the Promotion of International Trade, but it is rare to go directly to the Council for the United States Office for the Council for the Promotion of International Trade to intern. If you think about it with your heels, you will know that Li Tingting must have gone out of touch.

Li Tingting could not withstand the tricks of the old fried dough sticks, and she would say something if she was not careful. The department leaders then realized that Li Tingting was Song Weiyang's cousin. Not only did she approve her internship application for leaving school early, but she also gave a quota for outstanding graduates of this class, so that Li Tingting must return to China to give a speech by the representative of the graduates.

Beijing, courtyard house.

While watering camellias, Chen Tao talked about Jianlibao's digestion progress. She came to Beijing mainly to watch football. It happened that Song Weiyang was also having a meeting here, so the two of them simply went to the courtyard for a few days.

"Sister Tao." Shen Si came out of the inner room with her laptop in her arms.

Chen Tao asked with a smile: "Isn't there anything else? I want to call your boss away?"

"No," Shen Si told Song Weiyang, "Talented Bull Capital has reached an acquisition intention with News Group, and agreed to officially sign a contract in mid-May to acquire 8% of News Group's Phoenix TV shares."

Song Weiyang lay on the rocking chair and read a book casually: "Just let Taurus Capital deal with this kind of thing."

Phoenix TV was listed on the Hong Kong Stock Exchange two years ago. Now it is becoming more and more popular, and its ratings are high in mainland China. Even many of the hosts of Phoenix TV have become big stars in the mainland and are deeply loved by intellectuals and students. This TV station has made money and has a lot of funds. This year, there is even a bold plan: lead a team from different hosts to go to the North and South Poles to do programs.

Murdoch's News Group held 45% of the shares at the beginning of Phoenix TV's founding. Now Murdoch wants to sell part of the shares to cash out, and Taurus Capital took over at the instruction of Song Weiyang, and the price is not outrageous.

In the history of News Corp., there is a record: in 2001, Murdoch reorganized News Corp.’s satellite platforms in Western Europe, Asia and Latin America, and integrated them into Sky Global Network Group to look around the world.

It sounds like it's amazing, but the reality is that Murdoch is in crisis and he has to reorganize his assets.

All of this is related to the bursting of the Internet bubble.

In the 1990s, the Internet was booming, and Murdoch naturally had to join in the fun. He spent $450 million to acquire pointcast and founded abyte in China. As soon as the Internet winter arrived, all the money was wasted.

In addition, in early 2000, Murdoch joined hands with Nokia to enter the Internet and spent $1 billion to acquire 4% of Singapore Telecom's equity. All of these businesses were screwed up. Especially in the latter transaction, Murdoch's original intention was to use Singapore Telecom to indirectly involve Hong Kong City Telecom, and then directly point to the mainland China telecom market. As a result, Li Chaoren's son stood up and joined forces with China Telecom, Bank of China, Intel and other companies to seize the food and snatch the business away.

Due to years of crazy expansion and failure in the telecommunications and Internet industries, News Corp's management and financial situation are very chaotic. Murdoch's choice of asset integration and restructuring is actually selling off non-performing assets, narrowing and consolidating businesses in Asia, Western Europe and Latin America, and shifting its development focus to North America.

This practice was very successful. At this time, all the funds transferred were taken to the United States to buy at the bottom. Then they simply moved their headquarters to the United States and listed on the New York Stock Exchange to make money. After they got the money, they then took it to various parts of the world to continue to acquire and expand.

Since Murdoch's asking price is not high, Song Weiyang is naturally willing to be the takeover. In addition, before Phoenix TV went public, Song Weiyang replaced the shares from Bank of China Investment. Once the transaction is completed, he will be the third largest shareholder of Phoenix TV. Taurus Capital holds 8% of the shares and Song Weiyang personally holds 7.15% of the shares (after listing dilution).

"Talnut Capital has sent news and said that Director Liu of Phoenix TV wants to invite you to do an interview program, "Face to Face", "Lu Yu has an appointment", and "Changqiang Threesomes" will be your choice." Shen Si said.

Song Weiyang smiled and said, "It's up to you, you should give some face and promise them."

Shen Si secretly glanced at Chen Tao and said in a playful tone: "I recommend "Celebrity Face to Face". The host is very intellectual and beautiful, and is the goddess in the minds of many Chinese intellectuals."

Among these three programs, "Celebrity Face to Face" has the highest quality, and the interviewees are all celebrities from all walks of life.

But under Chen Tao's gaze, Song Weiyang immediately stated: "I will definitely not go to "Celebrity Face to Face". Am I the kind of person who cares about beauty? I have always only focused on connotation."

Chen Tao smiled and said nothing.

Song Weiyang thought for a while: "Just "Shan Qiang Threesomes", I have watched "Lu Yu's Appointment" and I can't stand her neurotic laughter. By the way, I'm too lazy to go to Hong Kong City to record the show and ask the host to come to the mainland directly. If the other party doesn't want to do it, I give up."

Shen Si immediately picked up the laptop and sent an email to explain the situation.

Soon, Phoenix TV replied in seconds, and Shen Si passed on a message: "They said it's OK, it's OK to record in Shenzhen City, and it's OK to record in Beijing."

"Just let's go to the capital. I don't have so much spare time to wait for them within two days." Song Weiyang said.

Shen Si immediately started to work, spoke directly with the host on the phone, and finally handed the phone to Song Weiyang: "Boss, the other party wants to discuss the content of the program with you."

Song Weiyang took the phone and said, "Hey, hello, I am Song Weiyang."

A voice came from the phone: "Hello, Mr. Song, I am Dou Wentao, I'm sorry to disturb you for a few minutes. Do you have any special requests for the conversation guests?"

"Who do you want to invite?" Song Weiyang asked.

Dou Wentao explained: "I recently invited Wang Shuo, why don't you go on the show together?"

"Forget it, that guy is so good at talking. If he is there, others can't interfere. I'm afraid it will be embarrassing at that time." Song Weiyang immediately denied.

Dou Wentao said again: "How is Teacher Qiuyu? He has time to do it recently."

Song Weiyang smiled and said, "I have poor literary literacy and have a generation gap with traditional writers."

"Do you know Liang Wendao? You are quite good at chatting." Dou Wentao asked.

"Just know how to chat," said Song Weiyang.

Dou Wentao said: "Then how about our recording tomorrow? Wendao and I flew over overnight, and the topic revolved around the motto of Taurus Business School."

Song Weiyang said: "Yes."

Song Weiyang said a few casual words, and the program team immediately became busy.

Because time was tight, the other party collected online information and newspaper information overnight. Dou Wentao flew to the capital and couldn't sleep at all, because he had to formulate the content of the program talk himself. He worked hard all night, and slept casually the next morning, and officially started recording in the afternoon.

Fortunately, this show is just nonsense, otherwise it would be impossible to deal with it in such a short time.
Chapter completed!
