The unparalleled talent of the country started from Harbin Institute of Technology

Bang!
A loud, heavy thud echoed through the office, startling everyone. They stared straight ahead, their anxiety growing.

"Fa Ke, speak up! Why did this happen? Are you all dead?"

Burbank, Los Angeles, Disney headquarters office building.

Inside the top-floor conference room, a group of senior executives were gathered, and everyone was in a very bad mood.

Today, not only the chairman and other senior executives are here, but several board members have also come.

Unfortunately, Disney's stock price plummeted by 37.5% in just three days, which terrified everyone.

High-end business battles seem rather ordinary.

Here's what happened: three days ago, Disney was embroiled in three scandals.

First, a death occurred during a Disney film production project. The incident was initially covered up well, and the relevant personnel had already received compensation.

Unfortunately, some people were unwilling to let things rest and insisted on causing trouble on this day.

Although the investigation has not yet concluded, these individuals may very well have been involved in the short-selling activities.

Secondly, there was a scandal involving Disney where the company seal was stolen for a month without being discovered.

By the time they were discovered, it was too late.

Victims kept coming to the door. Although some criminals were using Disney's name to commit fraud, Disney's seal cannot be faked.

Disney doesn't want to admit it, but it has no choice but to.

However, this matter cannot be simply accepted; a resolution is necessary.

Police investigations take time, and compensation for all victims can only be obtained after the court proceedings.

In any case, Disney is unlikely to swallow this bitter pill without understanding the truth.

Instead, the most pressing issues right now are the plummeting stock price, the board's fury, and public relations crisis management to mitigate the negative impact of this incident.

Third, Disney's latest animated film has grossed far below expectations.

Subsequently, the film was flooded with negative reviews online, resulting in a score of only 1.9.

An unprecedentedly low score.

This has made many moviegoers unwilling to buy tickets to watch the film.

As a result, on the third day, the film's box office revenue plummeted below the million-dollar mark, with only a little over eight hundred thousand dollars earned that day.

The cinema giants have been badly burned, collectively reducing film production and even preparing to pull the film from theaters.

terrible!

Three negative news items brought down Disney's stock price, causing it to plummet multiple times in one day, bringing it to its lowest point this year!
This is clearly a setup, and it's the most straightforward and brutal form of business warfare—it's absolutely explosive!
After hearing this, Wang Duoyu was completely stunned.

"You're right, Disney was set up..."

In his past life, he had heard of many cases of business warfare, such as those involving physical damage or interference, like slashing competitors' products, such as shared bicycle seats.

Secondly, it can damage the other party's feng shui symbols, such as killing their money tree by pouring water on it or replacing their statue of the God of Wealth.

The famous battle of feng shui layouts among commercial buildings in Central, Hong Kong Island: the Bank of China Tower's triangular knife-shaped architecture, the HSBC Building's Three Killings Wealth-Generating Formation, and the Cheung Kong Center Building's four-sided shield structure.

Third, they secretly photographed trade secrets, such as the chairman of Zhongdian Motor climbing over a wall to photograph the competitor's workshop.

There's also the issue of public opinion and price wars: using social media to make sarcastic remarks, such as Mixue Ice Cream mocking Luckin Coffee.

And direct price cuts to suppress prices, theft of billboards, such as the tearing down of the billboard of Banu Hotpot before it opened, suspected to be the work of Haidilao.

There are also extreme internal conflicts, such as physical altercations between senior executives, like the chairman of Huaxin Trust in the original timeline who injured the general manager with a hammer.

The last resort is to seize the company seal, as seen in the case of Li Guoqing seizing the seal at Dangdang.com.

Disney's latest situation involves the theft of its company seal, resulting in significant losses, reportedly exceeding $300 million in direct economic losses.

It's difficult to calculate the extent of indirect losses.

In any case, this time, Disney's stock price plummeted, and many shareholders suffered heavy losses.

Throughout his life, Wang Duoyu has also encountered many business battles.

However, Want Want Group was very strong from the beginning, and its competitors were only average, so it managed to escape unscathed.

Even later, the rise of companies like Motong Toy Factory and Huachen Mobile attracted the attention of North American capital.

However, by then, Want Want Group had already risen to prominence and formed an extremely large and complex force. The key was that it had donned the cloak of European capital, which made the Morgan Group and others hesitant to make any rash moves.

Even if they later guessed what was going on, it was too late; otherwise, Want Want Group would have faced a fierce attack long ago.

"Big Fish, will Disney be ruined this time?"

Wang Yifei blinked, seemingly asking a casual question, but actually thinking about whether she could find the answer she wanted from it.

"You're trying to get information out of me again..." Wang Duoyu said with a helpless expression.

"Forget it, just be careful. Small things are fine, but if you lose your own savings, don't come crying to me later."

He told his eldest daughter about his prediction, and he made it clear whether it was right or wrong; it was just a prediction.

The influx of large sums of money into the market will inevitably have a significant impact, prompting farmers to make corresponding strategic adjustments.

Although stock trading is largely about following the overall market trend, it is also greatly influenced by other factors.

"Thank you, Dad, I love you, mua..." Wang Yifei was overjoyed and hugged her father and kissed him.

But her father disgustedly wiped her face.

"If you're going to kiss me, why did you have to get my face all spit on you? Aren't you disgusting?"

"Big Fish, don't you love me anymore? You never cared about me before..."

Before she could even utter the word "saliva," her mother, Liu Xiaoli, pulled her away.
"Wang Yifei, I'm warning you, this is my husband. Only I can kiss him. You can't. How old are you? Don't you have any manners? Aren't you ashamed?"

Wang Yifei's fighting power is not weak:

"Hmph, even if I'm seventy or eighty years old, I'm still Big Fish's daughter. I can kiss her whenever I want. If you don't like it, you don't have to watch. I didn't ask you to..."

Liu Xiaoli was so angry that she wanted to slap her daughter twice.

But since they were her own flesh and blood, she held back.

She has never hit Wang Yifei since she was a child, but as her daughter grows up, she becomes more and more infuriating. Now, she is even blatantly stealing her man right in front of her.

It's too much!

"Wang Duoyu, aren't you going to do anything about your daughter?"

The contradictions needed to be redirected promptly, and it was also necessary to distinguish between the primary and secondary contradictions. Wang Duoyu, who had been singled out, slipped away without a trace.

"Xinxin, come on, Daddy will teach you to recite the multiplication tables."

This reason was so compelling that Liu Xiaoli was powerless to object and could only stomp her feet in anger.

October passed quickly, and Disney was severely damaged after this ordeal.

However, they have reorganized the management team, investigated what needs to be investigated, and dealt with what needs to be dealt with. The stock price has risen by about five percent compared to before.

After entering November, Disney announced a new movie release plan. With the Christmas season approaching, Disney may achieve good box office results.

Meanwhile, Paramount, MGM, and Marvel Studios, the three Hollywood giants, also announced their film plans for the Christmas season.

The Federal Reserve reacted as if facing a major crisis after seeing the news.

Although they've gotten used to Hollywood movies being big hits, they're all undermining the foundation of the dollar.

The fact that the Federal Reserve can't seem to find a way to catch the counterfeit money ring is infuriating and frustrating.

At this time, Wang Yifei also began to plan her stock investments and started placing bets in advance.

"Paramount, MGM, and Marvel Studios are all privately held companies, so I can't even buy their stock. I'm so envious, it's a real shame."

She was really envious of these three Hollywood giants because their annual box office revenue is extremely high.

Especially this year, with the release of "The Avengers," the box office has reached an unprecedented $5.78 billion.

While it's highly unlikely that it will break the six billion US dollar mark, this box office record is truly terrifying.

Therefore, if Paramount and the other two companies become publicly listed, their stock prices will definitely skyrocket.

Before we knew it, it was December, and Wang Yifei was already closely monitoring the situation in North America.

The first movie to be released during the Christmas season is Marvel Studios' "Iron Man 2".

The first one was released in the year 2000, which is now three years ago.

On the day Iron Man was released nationwide in North America, more than 4,000 theaters across the United States opened screenings, and all IMAX theaters dedicated their screen time to this movie.

Unfortunately, this is a special effects blockbuster, so it's more suitable for an IMAX theater.

On Friday morning, many newspapers, including The Washington Post, The New York Times, and the Chicago Tribune, reported on the box office performance of "Iron Man 2" on their front pages.

Yesterday, Thursday, Iron Man grossed $293 million at the U.S. box office.

Although it failed to break the previous box office record for the opening day of "The Avengers," this figure still shocked many people.

The Federal Reserve, the CIA, and the White House were all very angry that morning.

Because they know that Iron Man's huge box office success is all due to exploiting the foundation of the US dollar, which is really infuriating.

On Friday, news came from Russia that they had found a dilapidated factory and some clues about a counterfeit money ring.

This delighted the CIA agents.

After applying for the mission, they immediately headed to Moscow.

Little did they know that while they were on their mission, the KGB had also received the same intelligence, and they arrived at the destination around the same time.

A major battle between the two sides is imminent.

The KGB had the home-field advantage and could call for support at any time, so they quickly took down the CIA agents.

This wave completely bewildered the CIA; they were wiped out for several days before they finally learned the general situation.

Burton Byron and other CIA executives were completely dumbfounded when they received the news.

"Fuck it! We've been fooled by the counterfeit money ring again. What the hell? How do they get their intelligence? Can't they even tell the difference between fake and real information?"

The CIA executives were completely disillusioned, but George W. Bush's Herbert ignored the matter, as he was busy with matters in Iraq.

According to reports from the Middle East, soldiers have already located Majid Hussein and are carrying out a capture operation.

Therefore, for Bush Jr. and Herbert at present, arresting Majid Hussein is more important.

Far away in the Middle East, in a small town in Iraq, surrounded by military units.

The deafening roar of bombs could be heard from time to time, and there were always bombers overhead, with fearless individuals carrying bombs to carry out bombing raids.

There are even drones that launch missiles directly from an altitude of 20,000 meters.

Meanwhile, in the town, Majid Hussein heard from his subordinates that a Navy SEAL team had appeared only ten kilometers away and was about to launch an attack.

The intelligence was passed on to them by someone else, the arms dealer who had previously sold them weapons.

Iraq has found itself in a situation where it has no allies in the Middle East.

Majid Hussein was now in a desperate situation, and he had no choice but to fight to the death.

But he seemed to have reached a dead end, lacking sufficient ammunition to continue the fight.

"Let's go, let's leave here and not come back anytime soon. Those Americans are bullying us too much."

After reading the news, Majid Hussein knew his fate, but he was still unwilling to accept it, so he wanted to continue to fight.

But he was born in 1937 and is already 66 years old this year. At this age, he is no longer suitable for traveling, let alone the fact that he is currently on the run.

"Sir, I think we could contact those people; maybe they'd be willing to help us?"

"Are you saying I should betray my country for personal gain?"

"Majid Hussein said quietly."

We've already reached a dead end, what else can we do?

Despite the ongoing war in Iraq, Los Angeles remained a haven of hedonism and revelry. People continued their dancing, horseback riding, singing, and dancing as usual, enjoying a peaceful and harmonious atmosphere.

Iron Man 2 grossed $348 million on Friday and then raked in $362 million over the weekend, breaking the record for the highest single-day box office for The Avengers.

The news shocked the whole world.

The Federal Reserve was furious. They all worked overtime that day, and the entire office building was brightly lit until dawn. The number of pizza deliveries in the neighborhood downstairs surged by 250%.

Horror!
In just three days, the film grossed $1.03 billion. Although it didn't break the record for the fastest film to reach $1 billion, this achievement is still the highest record for "The Avengers".

That's absolutely awesome.

Along with this good news, the stock prices of Hollywood film companies such as Disney surged.

Meanwhile, the next movie is also coming soon. (End of Chapter)
