The newspaper commenced the serialization of comics, marking the beginning of industrial integration. William White found himself overseeing a multitude of industries, leaving him with scarce energy to manage it all.
On the other hand, he was here to savor life, clearly not opting for a life of sleepless nights and missed meals.
The recently established White Media not only included traditional print media but also the so-called comic weekly, along with White Film and several TV stations. This essentially solidified its position as the leading company, akin to Warner.
The merging of a software company and a game console company might seem perplexing. One must assert a connection; perhaps, it could be considered part of the IT industry.
This so-called White system saw an instantaneous doubling, leaving Wall Street bewildered. Was this a prelude to preparing for a public listing?
This group of individuals seemed to be overthinking. While they focused on management issues, an IPO is about maximizing benefits, with other aspects requiring minimal attention.
In the typical American corporate structure, things are managed vertically. Despite the commotion, William White's work pressure plummeted.
Essentially, he was a figurehead, not adept at daily company management. Fortunately, he acknowledged his limitations and brazenly assigned responsibilities to professionals.
During success, one's words and deeds are magnified. William White oddly acquired the title of the "management wizard."
Ethics in the media are dubious. While they currently praise you, their disdain is even stronger when you falter on the street.
Now that he had achieved success, peculiar strategies were hailed without much scrutiny. Obviously, no one can perpetually succeed, and no one is spotless.
To become a public figure, a certain price must be paid.
"William, are you planning to go public?"
"No! George, why do you ask? I'm just too busy to manage these businesses."
"Haha, I figured as much. It's alright, just wanted to check."
"Relax, if financing is needed, I will inform you."
"Well, thanks, man."
"Haha, no need to be hypocritical. Well, that's it."
As a political family, the Xiao Busu family naturally held interests. His relationship with the investment bank wasn't simple. Without a certain background, a political family is merely a joke.
"It seems our buddies underestimate themselves a bit. How could such a small operation have so many interpretations?" William White pondered.
He was, of course, misunderstood. Had he succeeded in acquiring NBC and Disney, the attention would be even more intense.
A media group is no laughing matter. After integrating these resources, no one would dare to underestimate it.
After several newspapers changed owners, their tone became more rigorous. Racial and religious issues were off-limits, and political biases were reported to the letter.
Today's media usually picks a side, either left or right, rarely being neutral.
Trying to control Fengyuan may sound appealing, but the outcome is usually not favorable. It's like a madman biting whoever he sees.
Surprisingly, no one dares to offend.
Sales of newspapers dedicated to news actually increased, leaving people at a loss for words.
Therefore, several newspapers didn't incur significant losses, and they're expected to turn profits over time.
Some time ago, when he said he was too young to be quiet, he now has nothing to say. People will ignore you firstly, and secondly, they did a good job. The All Rice Newspaper Association welcomes the influx of fresh blood.
Other people's newspapers and TVs adopt a more serious media attitude, making some old folks feel humiliated.
Interfering with the editor? No joke. As long as they don't cross the red line, nobody cares what scandal they expose.
William White is now untouchable. He doesn't mind. In this old environment, calling the President names or scolding the Governor is perfectly fine. Not only do they dare not control it, but they also try to maintain friendly relations.
Of course, this is conditional. You have to be able to handle it. Save the tabloid office, and it will be cleared out in just two clicks.
William White feels a bit anxious about integrating media groups in Tu'ao. This was his meticulously planned strategy, yet it hasn't been executed, and he has been cut off.
This isn't unfounded. His influence is not only spreading to the European continent, but even Tu'ao is inevitable.
Without a news group yet, he's like a turtle from Tu'ao, whereas the other party is already a big crocodile. How could he be afraid of his feelings?
To compete? Don't bother; everyone's wealth is not on the same level. Looking at the current situation, Tu'ao's old nest isn't as stable as it seems.
Globalization? Wall Street is somewhat veiled. This man seems indifferent to the United States. Is he like his caricatures, finding the walls fragrant?
The most American style in this comic weekly is undoubtedly The Simpsons. What bewilders U.S. readers is that this comic isn't included and won't appear in the comic weekly.
It's clarified that the comics have no bad endings and will be serialized in several newspapers, with the single book soon to be available.
Observing this man amass wealth, big and small comic companies also intend to go international. The result? It's clear. Except for Marvel's reluctance, all others are left in the dust.
The old comic company is bewildered; our content is good, but there are no takers. Even if we can't sell ten million copies, a million is negotiable.
What the heck are these tens of thousands of copies now? This isn't sufficient for shipping.
Viking pirates?
This guy is quite impressive, but how to invest?
Not to mention investing, the tax on this merchandise isn't paid much.
Global taxation in Lao Mei is a reality; people have consistently invested in you. Whatever your temperament, the tax will be paid when the money returns.
The investments in this venture are all in the foot basin, not only has the profit been reinvested, but a substantial debt has also been incurred. It's evidently the strategy of not intending to pay a dime!
Considering the current scenario, IPOs may all take place in London. Wall Street is, of course, uncomfortable. Securities underwriting is a major business, and they certainly don't want this shift.
Now it appears that the best outcome is to be listed in both places to avoid being exploited. William White is sparing no effort in this regard.
Using a plug-in is futile. The high underwriting fees are bound to be exorbitant. If you opt for an unreliable one, you might fail to issue it. This is the monopoly of Hongguo, and no one can escape it.
The birth of Hollywood has a motive similar to that of Silicon Valley – to evade the exploitation of Wall Street. Unfortunately, it has proven counterproductive, and neither can escape those financial vampires.
As for William White, naturally, it's impossible. It's prudent to minimize the loss unless there's no intention to thrive in the United States; otherwise, acceptance is inevitable.
These are the rules – rules that have never changed.
