"Pfft."
Some of the people who were about to raise their placards stopped.
"F * ck, it's a billion dollars. How are we going to survive?"
"The world's richest man is indeed rich."
"Paramount has lost more than 100 billion dollars to him. I heard that he is building an open-pit super coal mine of more than one billion tons in Hua Xia. It would be strange if he is short of money."
Kree bit his lip and said bitterly, "Xiao, I was wrong. You are the f * cking bastard who doesn't care about money."
Xiao Yunhai smiled and said, "Didn't I want to suppress them?"
Franklin looked at Xiao Yunhai with a serious expression.
He had brought a total of three billion dollars with him this time. He originally wanted to use 1.3 billion dollars to win Europe and 1.7 billion dollars to win North America. He did not expect Robb TV to suddenly appear in Europe. Now, the boss of Marvel, the world's richest man, Xiao Yunhai, had come in person. It was really a bad idea to compete with him in terms of financial resources, not to mention that he had no money in his pocket.
"No, we can't let Xiao win the Grammys." Franklin took out his mobile phone and immediately called Steer.
Ted Robb slapped his thigh and said, "Xiao, you are indeed my idol. You are much more domineering than me."
Xiao Yunhai smiled and said, "Thank you for the compliment. Our Marvel TV will premiere tomorrow and urgently needs a sensational program to attract the attention of the audience. Please give way, ladies and gentlemen. "
Mason Mullen smiled bitterly and said, "Mr. Xiao, you have already offered 1.5 billion dollars. How can we compete with you?"
Ted Robb mocked, "Some people were quite powerful just now, but unfortunately, they became obedient as soon as they saw Mr. Xiao. Sigh, no wonder they lost so badly. "
Xiao Yunhai looked at him deeply and said, "Mr. Robb, are you making trouble for me?"
Ted Robb laughed and said, "No way. Mr. Xiao, you are my super idol. How would I dare to make trouble for you? "
Adolf saw that no one spoke and could not help but say, "Is there anyone who offered a higher price than Mr. Xiao? The ratings in North America are much higher than in Europe. "
Although he was asking everyone, his eyes were fixed on Franklin, who was on the phone.
Adolf asked three times on stage, but Franklin was still on the phone.
Xiao Yunhai chuckled. "Mr. Adolf, if this is an auction, asking three times and still not getting an answer would mean that the winner has been announced. Aren't you being too pretentious? "
Franklin put down the phone and said, "Mr. Xiao, are you worried that we'll outbid you?"
Xiao Yunhai said, "Of course. I don't want to be taken advantage of. "
"Hahaha."
Franklin had just spent 1.95 billion to buy the copyright of the Grammy Awards in Europe. Wasn't that just a spendthrift?
Franklin didn't expect Xiao Yunhai to admit it, and his words were stuck in his throat. "We bid 1.9 billion, and that's our highest price. As long as Mr. Xiao offers one US dollar more than us, we'll give up. "
Xiao Yunhai chuckled. "A gentleman doesn't take what others like. You've already bid 1.9 billion US dollars. How can I have the nerve to compete with you? In Hollywood, everyone thinks that Marvel and Paramount are rivals. In fact, our relationship is quite good, right? Forget it, let's not compete. We're brothers. There's no point in competing. "
"Bah." Franklin was about to explode from Xiao Yunhai's words.
Brother TV station? He didn't know how Xiao Yunhai had the nerve to say something like that.
Ted Robb looked at Xiao Yunhai with admiration and said, "I thought I was already very shameless, but compared to Mr. Xiao, I suddenly realized that I'm still far behind."
His voice was a little loud, and everyone present heard it clearly.
Everyone couldn't hold it in anymore and laughed.
Xiao Yunhai said angrily, "Mr. Robb, this is a high-end cocktail party. It's better if you don't say such things that don't suit your status."
Adolf, who was on the stage, held back his laughter and asked, "Mr. Xiao, are you still going to bid?"
Xiao Yunhai pointed at his own nose and said, "Do I look like a fool to you? Although I'm very interested in the Grammys, I'd have to be crazy to spend two billion US dollars to buy it. Only those who have mental problems or have their brains stimulated would do such a stupid thing. "
Everyone looked at Franklin and burst into laughter again.
Franklin's expression was extremely ugly. Last time, he was ridiculed by Ted Robb. This time, he was ridiculed by Kungfu Xiao. Today, he had lost all his face.
He spent 3.85 billion US dollars to buy the rights to the Grammys. It was more than twice as expensive as last year. Even he felt a little stupid when he thought about it.
Adolf said with a face full of smiles, "Then let us congratulate Paramount Pictures for obtaining the rights to the Grammys."
There was applause, but to Franklin's ears, it was unusually ear-piercing.
If it were Xiao Yunhai, he would have left long ago. However, Franklin forced himself to stay until he finished toasting with everyone. This made Xiao Yunhai sigh again that he really did have the potential to be a Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtle.
Ted Robb walked up to Xiao Yunhai and said with a smile, "Mr. Xiao, hello."
Xiao Yunhai raised his glass of red wine and clinked it with Ted Robb's. He said, "Mr. Robb, nice to meet you."
Both of them took a sip of the wine.
Ted Robb said, "Mr. Xiao, I'm not joking with you. I'm really a big fan of yours."
Xiao Yunhai smiled and said, "That's my honor. Mr. Robb, you don't show your true colors. You've learned a lot from Hua Xia. "
Ted Robb pretended to be puzzled and asked, "Mr. Xiao, what do you mean?"
Xiao Yunhai said, "Why do you have to ask when you already know the answer? I heard that you have two older brothers who are at loggerheads with each other in order to fight for the Robb family's wealth and power. Mr. Robb's way of doing things is called a hidden dragon in Hua Xia. Once he shows his true colors, it will be the moment of victory. Am I right? "
Ted Robb's pupils constricted slightly. He smiled and said, "Mr. Xiao, you're thinking too much. I don't have that kind of ability. My outlook on life and values is to be happy and happy. Let these annoying things go. "
Xiao Yunhai looked at him deeply and said, "Maybe I'm thinking too much. However, what I want to say is that I'm an actor and a director at the same time. My judgment of people is usually not wrong. Mr. Robb, your acting skills are not good enough. You can't do it without leaving any traces. Therefore, you still need to improve on this aspect. "
Ted Robb felt very uncomfortable from Xiao Yunhai's stare just now. It was as if he had been seen through from head to toe by Xiao Yunhai. He forced a smile and said, "Mr. Xiao is right. I still have friends over there, so I won't disturb you. "
With that, Ted Robb hurriedly left.
Xiao Yunhai smiled and said, "Am I that scary?"
Kree, who had been standing not far away and listening to their conversation, said, "You've dug out the deepest secret in his heart. Do you think he won't be afraid of you? I really didn't expect the playboy in my eyes to be such a secretive guy. I also didn't expect you to have such sharp eyes to be able to see through him at a glance. Impressive. "
Xiao Yunhai smiled and said, "I'm a director. If I don't have this kind of ability, how can I choose the right actor for the role? "
Kree said, "Forget it. There are so many top directors in Hollywood. Why can't they see through you? By the way, isn't it a pity that you didn't get the rights to the Grammy Awards? "
Xiao Yunhai said, "There's nothing to pity about. Our Marvel TV station relies on the quality of the program, not just a simple award ceremony. Besides, our Hua Xia is also very interested in the Grammy Awards. If we put it online, I'm sure we can make a lot of money. "
Kree nodded and said, "Hua Xia is a good place. You've been nominated for five awards at once. I believe you should be able to get the attention of Hua Xia's fans."
Xiao Yunhai said, "Listen to the advice and eat your fill. I'll go and discuss it with Adolf."
