♂!
Li Zetian leaned in front of Yu Jingqiu's belly and said softly, "Baby, you will definitely like the name your father gave you. This article was first published?"
After a pause, Li Zetian said, "My name is Li Youran! Dad hopes that you will be able to relax, carefree, and live a happy life every day!"
After speaking, Li Zetian looked up at Yu Jingqiu and smiled, "Isn't Li Youran a good name?"
"Well, it's pretty good!" Yu Jingqiu laughed, "What about the English name? "
"Let's call her Annie in English."
…
At 8 o'clock in the evening, Li Zetian, Yu Jingqiu, Xiao Zhixuan, and Dongfang Yuqin were all sitting on the sand in the hall watching TV.
The mtv television channel is broadcasting "The Voice of America".
"Turn around, turn around quickly, why haven't you turned around yet?" Yu Jingqiu said anxiously, the four instructors sat on a red chair with their backs to the singer, there was a button on the right armrest of the chair, shoot down, the chair will turn around.
First up was Whitney Houston of Violet Records, singing Yu Jingqiu's song "hen you be1ieve".
Li Zetian smiled unhurriedly: "Don't worry, Whitney Houston sings so well, the tutors will definitely turn around, don't worry."
Now the audience on the TV cheered for the singer, softly shouting "turn around", "turn around" and "turn around"!
At this moment, more than five million users in the United States are watching this show, and people are surprised by the singing level of Whitney Houston.
"This black contestant can sing no worse than Susan Lee!"
"Nice!"
"This show doesn't look at face, figure, age, gender, skin color, just listen to singing, um, it's very interesting and fair!"
"Oh, why didn't the instructor turn around? This song is almost finished, it's really anxious!"
"Hurry up and turn around!!!"
"Turn around! Turn around!"
Countless viewers are cheering for Whitney Houston.
At this moment, with a "bang", a tutor tapped the button.
Immediately, the red chair slowly turned around.
Everyone immediately rejoiced, and they were happy for Whitney Houston.
"Hahaha, finally turned around!"
"Because of strength, powerful singers will eventually be recognized by their mentors!"
"… "
People weren't happy yet, when the other three instructors scrambled to take pictures of the buttons on the armrest!
"Oh, all the mentors have turned around! Hahahaha, won't it be the students' turn to vote against each other later? It's interesting, I wonder who this young black female player will choose? These four mentors are all well-known in the industry. Senior…”
Li Zetian said to Jingqiu with a smile: "Look, I will say, the mentors will turn around!"
Yu Jingqiu said, "Who do you think Whitney Houston will choose?"
Li Zetian shrugged and said, "I don't know about that..."
"Dongfang Yuqin, who do you think Tenny Houston will choose?" Yu Jingqiu turned to look at Dongfang Yuqin and asked.
Dongfang Yuqin said with a smile: "There is only one female tutor among the four tutors. Tenny Houston may choose a female tutor!"
"Mom, what do you think?"
"Haha, I have the same opinion as Dongfang Yuqin." Xiao Zhixuan laughed.
At this point, the mentors asked Whitney Houston to introduce herself.
Teeney Houston was slightly nervous, took a deep breath, and then said, "Hello, four mentors, the audience at the scene and in front of the TV, hello, my name is Whitney Houston, and I am 17 years old."
A mentor asked: "Your profile says that you are a signed artist of Violet Records?"
"Yeah, and I did the backing for Susan Lee on 'hen you be1ieve'."
As soon as the words fell, the four tutors and everyone on the scene and in front of the TV expressed their surprise.
"You're still supporting Susan Lee?"
"Yes, Master!"
"I want this person, all three of you don't fight with me!" A female tutor couldn't help standing up and shouted loudly!
"Haha, it's no wonder that such an excellent player doesn't fight!" a male instructor laughed.
"… "
For a time, the show entered the stage of four mentors grabbing people, which caused the audience to laugh at the belly, and at the same time, they were curious about which mentor could win...
Li Zetian also watched the show with great interest, which was really interesting. In the previous life, when the first season of "The Voice of China" just came out, Li Zetian watched every issue.
"Jingle Bell!"
"Jingle Bell!"
At this moment, the phone rang, and Dongfang Yuqin got up to answer the phone.
After a while, Dongfang Yuqin turned to Li Zetian and said, "Mr.li, it's Mr. Deng's phone number!"
Why did Mr. Deng call
Li Zetian got up, walked over, and took the call from Dongfang Yuqin.
"Hello, Mr. Deng, I'm Li Zetian, do you have anything to do with me?"
Beijing is 15 hours ahead of Los Angeles, and it is now around 11 am.
"It's like this. SAIC Motor Group Co., Ltd. planned to buy the technology of American Dodge cars, but it was too expensive and had to choose to give it up. Now that the reform and opening up, the policy has been liberalized, SAIC Motor Group intends to establish a joint venture with foreign auto companies in China. Joint venture car company, I wonder if you are interested?"
I go, it's good, it finally thinks of me! ! !
Li Zetian was overjoyed. Volkswagen, Ford, General Motors, Honda, Toyota, BMW and other car companies have entered China and established joint ventures, making a lot of money! It's just that I don't have a car company now~~
No matter what, promise to come down first!
"Elder Deng, of course I'm interested!"
"Well, then I will inform SAIC Group, you will send someone to contact them later!"
"OK!"
The two ended a brief call.
Seeing the happy look on Li Zetian's face, Yu Jingqiu couldn't help but ask, "What's wrong? So happy!"
"For business matters, Mr. Deng asked me if I wanted to establish an automobile joint venture with SAIC, and I naturally agreed immediately. China has a large population, and with the rapid economic development, the demand for automobiles is increasing day by day!"
Dongfang Yuqin asked, "mr·li, are we going to buy a car company soon?"
"That's right!" said Li Zetian, "British cars are not very good in recent years! Rolls-Royce, in particular, went bankrupt due to debt losses in the 1970s. Later, under the intervention of the British government, Rolls-Royce was divided into two parts. For both automotive and aerodynamics companies. Rolls-Royce Aerodynamics is back to life, again among the world's top three aerodynamics manufacturers, while Rolls-Royce Motors has done little. We can buy Rolls-Royce Motor Cars!"
Li Zetian obviously had some knowledge of Rolls-Royce Motor Company, and he continued, "Rolls-Royce Motor Company has two brands, one is Rolls-Royce and the other is Bentley! Rolls-Royce Motor Company is a top luxury car company. Car manufacturers, car-making technology and art are undoubtedly the world's top. However, after all, only a few people can afford luxury cars, and the design of Rolls-Royce is too traditional and does not meet the times, so sales have been reduced. "If we cooperate with SAIC, we can use Rolls-Royce's technology to open a new car brand, mainly targeting low-end cars."
Dongfang Yuqin said thoughtfully: "The current purchasing power of the Chinese people is not enough, so low-end cars are the choice!"
Li Zetian smiled and nodded: "That's right!"
In fact, the automobile industry is also an industry that Li Zetian will enter sooner or later, but he did not intend to enter so early. Because his main career is in the industries related to computers, software and entertainment, he has no time to show car companies. But now, since the Chinese side has put forward the requirement of establishing an automobile joint venture company, it will simply enter the automobile industry earlier.
"You guys watch TV, I'm going to find a way to mobilize some funds!"
Li Zetian said, and walked towards the study, Dongfang Yuqin followed immediately.
The funds on the Umbrella Company's books have been used up, and funds can only be transferred from subsidiaries. Li Zetian estimates that Rolls-Royce Motor Company is currently only worth four or five billion US dollars, so it is relatively easy to raise funds.
Li Zetian checked the funds in the accounts of various companies under his name, and then instructed Dongfang Yuqin to transfer some of them from various subsidiaries.
The next day, Li Zetian raised $600 million. At the same time, he instructed his men in the UK to help him buy Rolls-Royce Motor Company. Li Zetian is commanding remotely in the United States!
The news of Li Zetian's acquisition of Rolls-Royce Motor Company was immediately reported by the British media. As soon as the news came out, the British people were shocked and even alarmed the British royal family!
Rolls-Royce Motor Company is the most famous car company in Britain, with a long history and almost a symbol of Britain. However, now that someone is going to buy it, how can this work? The British people will not agree! ! !
Many British citizens took to the streets to put pressure on the government, the Rolls-Royce Motor Company and Li Zetian's acquisition team.
For a time, the acquisition has encountered great difficulties.
Li Zetian is in the United States, and there is nothing he can do about it!
"It would be great if it was to acquire other car companies, there would be much less resistance!" Li Zetian shook his head and sighed.
However, since the target has been determined to be the Rolls-Royce Motor Company, Li Zetian will naturally not give up easily.
Although the British citizens objected, but fortunately, the Rolls-Royce Motor Company still has the intention to sell, because the Rolls-Royce Motor Company suffered serious losses and was on the verge of bankruptcy.
Negotiations are still going on.
On the American side, "The Voice of America" exploded overnight, and many people were discussing the show the next day. Whitney Houston had already gained a lot of popularity before her official debut.
The media also reported that "The Voice of America" made the headlines of the entertainment pages of major newspapers!
By the time of the second issue of the first season of "The Voice of America", the number of viewers soared to tens of millions, setting off the "Voice of America" craze, and the whirlwind of "The Voice of America" swept the world for a while!
The popularity of mtv has also greatly increased!
At this time, Li Zetian wrote a new program plan - the talent show "American Idol"!
When he handed over "American Idol" to the MTV program production team, the other party was extremely surprised, and they all said that this is a top program that is no worse than "The Voice of America"!
"Mr.li, the whole world is going crazy when American Idol comes out!"
Li Zetian smiled lightly when he heard the words. "American Idol" has always been a powerful viewing tool for Fox's spring season. It has been broadcasted in different primetime evenings due to broadcast adjustments, and all of them can be ranked in the ratings list of the day, and it has been in the top quarter for more than ten consecutive years. It ranks at the forefront of the ratings list and is known as the "King of American Reality Shows".
"Get ready before the first season of "The Voice of America" is over, so that you can connect with "The Voice of America" and become an MTV viewing tool!" Li Zetian said with a smile.
Everyone nodded.
"American Idol" is actually similar to "Super Girl". This program is broadcast live on TV during the audition program, and the live players line up to enter the field and conduct random interviews. A group of 5 contestants will sing a short song one by one in front of the primary selection judges, and those who pass will enter the producer audition. After entering the semi-finals, the program group will designate a special vocal coach for pre-match guidance, and finally the finals.
This kind of show is huge, not only has all kinds of weird jokes, but the players can also interact with the audience and let fans support their idols, thus creating American Idol!
By getting closer to the water, Violet Records will be able to recruit outstanding singers from The Voice and American Idol and develop into a large-scale record company. In the future, whether it is a cd player, mp3, ipod, mobile phone or music website, it is inseparable from the support of the record company.
"Okay, hurry up and prepare. Holding such a large-scale talent show requires a lot of execution ability, and the preliminary preparations must be done in place, including inviting supporters and judges, as well as the venue for the show, publicity, etc. Wait... However, before the end of the first season of "The Voice of America", try not to leak any news!" Li Zetian reminded.
"Yes!!!" Everyone responded in unison.
Li Zetian nodded and said goodbye.
After a month, the negotiation on the British side finally made a breakthrough. Rolls-Royce Motor Company was sold to Li Zetian at a price of 500 million US dollars, but to ensure that Rolls-Royce Motor Company was still in the UK, in other words, Rolls-Royce Motors Thrust Motors remains a British company and pays taxes to the British government. In addition, no employee can be dismissed without cause within three years!
Li Zetian can agree to the conditions put forward by the other party. Although he lives in the United States, his business empire is the whole world!
The two sides soon signed an agreement.
As soon as the news came out, the Chinese side received the news immediately because they were also very concerned about it. Soon, a person claiming to be the CEO of SAIC called Li Zetian to discuss the joint venture.
Li Zetian talked with him on the phone for a morning, and finally decided that Rolls-Royce Motor Company would invest in technology, brand and US$2000,000, and set up a joint venture with SAIC Group - SAIC-Royce-Royce. SAIC holds a 51% stake, and Rolls-Royce Motor Company holds a 49% stake.
A week later, the Rolls-Royce people traveled to China to strike a deal with SAIC and sign the contract. After that, the two parties jointly announced the design of a new brand of cars, focusing on the low-end car market.
As soon as the news came out, the global media and car companies ridiculed Rolls-Ross for its depravity, and the world's top luxury car company actually reduced to producing low-end cars...
However, in Li Zetian's view, the Volkswagen Group has low-end cars such as Santana, as well as top sports cars such as Lamborghini and Bugatti Veyron. Why can't Rolls-Royce Motor Company have low-end cars? The current situation is that Rolls-Royce Motor Company is not getting enough to eat, and it has to find a way to feed it first. What happened to the low-end car? When Rolls-Royce's low-end cars occupy the Chinese market, don't cry! ! !
