Chapter 403 Even without that much money, I can still scare you to death.
"We're still acquiring companies, but the current acquisition volume is relatively small," Wang Weibao replied.
Xing Baohua nodded without saying anything more, but asked, "You should step down from Juanzi's position first and see who is suitable to take over your job."
"Boss, should I go back to Hong Kong, or..." Wang Weibao was a little stunned, not knowing why Xing Baohua suddenly asked him to resign and stop serving the young boss's wife.
Xing Baohua did not answer Wang Weibao's question for the time being, but asked the record distribution manager, Mo Qili: "Columbia Films has a record company, and I need you to have complete information about it."
Mozili nodded and said, "Yes, boss. Who do you want to poach?"
“I won’t poach anyone. Columbia Records will soon be mine. So, this small record label will merge with Columbia Records. You, Murchiley, need to keep a close eye on it for me.”
After Xing Baohua finished speaking, Mo Qili's face immediately lit up with a delighted smile, and he nodded in response, "Don't worry, boss, I'll find someone to get the information and find out right away."
After finishing his sentence, Mozili turned and quickly left.
Wang Weibao was left alone in the room. Xing Baohua answered his earlier question by saying, "I have acquired Columbia Pictures. Although it is still going through the process, it should be under my name in the next day or two. There can't be no one in it without my people, so your new position is the company's vice president and shareholder representative."
Wang Weibao's face didn't show any surprise, but he was actually very excited inside.
Those were the original eight major film studios. After Chaplin's film company went bankrupt, only the current seven remain.
The fact that the boss was able to acquire this long-established film company not only brings honor to the Chinese people, but is also unique in Asia.
“Okay!” Wang Weibao said solemnly.
Xing Baohua walked over to him, patted his capable assistant on the shoulder, and said, "At Columbia Pictures, you represent me. Sometimes you have to exercise power beyond that of the president. In terms of general direction, you have to follow the president's lead, even if the path he leads is wrong, you have to stick to it."
"Why?" Wang Weibao didn't understand. Since the president's approach was wrong, why not correct it?
"There's no why. When it comes to direction, you have to listen to the boss. Columbia is chaotic enough. If you get involved, it'll only get more chaotic. How are you going to make money then?" Xing Baohua explained to Wang Weibao.
In fact, Xing Baohua was also mentoring him, since this guy who followed her hadn't experienced the power struggles of a large office culture. Even with Hong Kong record companies, he always acted as his manager.
Strictly speaking, he is unqualified to serve as vice president. The only thing that makes him qualified is that he is obedient and one of our own.
If he lacks ability, it can be developed later. As long as he is loyal, Xing Baohua can overlook his management shortcomings.
The reason for keeping Wang Weibao out of the company's management struggles was to encourage him to observe and learn more. This is a learning process, not a time for him to assume his role as vice president.
Columbia Pictures is currently still operating at a loss, and Xing Baohua doesn't want to add fuel to the fire with its senior management.
Why should we temporarily suppress Wang Weibao?
Humans are ambitious. Suddenly reaching a new and higher level can cause one's ego to swell, and under this swell, one can become selfless.
Wang Weibao nodded, understanding Xing Baohua's meaning. He would keep his eyes open and his mouth shut, noting down any complaints he made in a small notebook to settle scores later.
Is this the head of the J Prosecutor's Office stationed in Colombia?
"Once you get to your new position, learn more about it; it's a super big company," Xing Baohua said.
"Understood, don't worry, boss, I'll definitely keep an eye on things! Who's the president? Or is it a newly hired one?" Wang Weibao asked.
"Given Columbia's current situation, do you think I should continue using the current president? I'll definitely have to lay off some senior executives to pave the way for the new president and you," Xing Baohua replied.
After finishing her explanations there, Xing Baohua returned to her mansion.
With more work commitments, the phone kept ringing. On my way home, I received several calls, and by the time I got home, my phone was dead from all the calls.
I continued playing while it was charging.
After hanging up the phone, Xing Baohua dialed the headhunting company's number again.
He asked a headhunting firm to check if there was a person named Robert Iger in their talent pool.
I searched everywhere, but I couldn't find that person.
The talent pool is mostly comprised of people in the electronics field. What does this Robert Iger do?
Xing Baohua didn't know exactly what he did. In his memory, this so-called legendary CEO was the president of the Mickey Mouse Group.
Under his leadership, it is said that things went very well.
The current Mickey Mouse CEO, Eisner, is also a legendary CEO. If it weren't for the competition agreement, Xing Baohua would definitely have offered a high price to poach him.
Since they can't poach him, they'll try poaching the next CEO. Rumor has it he's even better than this one.
These are all just rumors; we'll have to see the actual actions to know for sure.
He roughly told the headhunting firm that the person he wanted worked at ABC Broadcasting.
As a result, the headhunter told Xing Baohua that ABC Broadcasting no longer existed; it had been acquired by Metropolitan Broadcasting and is now called Metropolitan Broadcasting Company.
Xing Baohua didn't care what he was called; he just needed to find the person.
First, find Iger's phone number and notify him immediately.
Less than half an hour later, the headhunting firm sent Robert Iger's phone number to his pager.
After reading it, Xing Baohua dialed the number.
The phone rang for about half a minute before it was finally answered.
"Robert Iger?"
"It's me, and it's you."
"Xing, Xing Baohua, President of Hainan Investment."
