Chapter 551: Excessive Security Forces
“Villa No. 33, it should be right here.”
Andre, editor-in-chief of the Los Angeles Entertainment News, personally led an interview team to the villa in Burbank under Zucker's name.
The female reporter Avril said lightly: "Editor-in-Chief, have you never been to Mr. Wald's house?"
This question is also something that others on the interview team are curious about.
Andrey curled his lips and said, "I haven't been to Mr. Wald's home. Is there anything strange? Don't forget that since 1998, Mr. Wald has rarely received private interviews except for some press conferences. There are not many media outlets who can conduct private interviews except our Los Angeles Entertainment News."
In the words, Andrei inadvertently showed pride.
Immediately, an old reporter said, "The editor-in-chief said it is right. Since 1998, Mr. Wald has only accepted interviews from a limited number of media outlets such as our newspaper, California Entertainment, Bloomberg, and Times. Well, if I remember correctly, it has not been more than 8 times in the past few years."
Everyone nodded frequently when they heard this.
When Zhu Ke first started his business in 1995, when he just came here, he wanted the whole world to know him. However, since Zhu Ke's wealth soared in 1998, especially after experiencing the big profits of the Asian financial crisis, Zhu Ke consciously lowered his name, hoping that the whole world would not pay too much attention to him.
The pattern is big;
High level;
Zhu Ke's original "diaosi" mentality has also gradually changed.
I won’t say much about anything else. When I just came across time, once I encountered something difficult, the protagonist would definitely have a whirring personality, and he might scold his mother;
As for now!
Mountain of Tai collapsed before but its color remained unchanged?
Well, it hasn't reached that height yet, but Zucker is indeed much more steady than it was a few years ago.
"Okay, let's not talk about this for now. Let's go in first." Andrei smiled.
Everyone nodded.
Dingdong~ Dingdong~ Dingdong~
The doorbell rang.
The security team, who had received the notice, saw the surveillance video outside the villa as soon as possible.
"03, I am Zhao Wushuang. They are reporters of the Los Angeles Entertainment News. I made an appointment with the boss and I can let them in." said the chief bodyguard.
"yes!"
A thick answer came from the walkie-talkie.
Soon, the door of the villa was opened and a tall, heavily armed white man welcomed Andre and his group in.
"Hello, are you the editor-in-chief Andrei? I am one of the boss's security team members. Now I will welcome you in. However, before entering, I will check what you carry." The strong bodyguard said in a deep voice.
With a look, two security personnel stood up behind the strong bodyguard and stepped forward to check what Andre and his group were carrying.
arms?
Others carry dangerous weapons and must never enter Zhuke's villa. After all, Zhuke regards his life as extremely important;
Eavesdropping equipment, pinhole cameras, special medicines, unknown liquids...
no!
The more famous the person is, the more worried about these things.
A rigorous examination made Andre and others feel a little uncomfortable.
"Everyone, in order to ensure the safety of the boss, this is a necessary process. I hope you all understand and understand."
The strong man said after checking.
Andrei smiled strongly and said, "We can understand that this is coming to Mr. Wald's home after all. As far as I know, this is the first time Mr. Wald was interviewed by the media at home."
This was said to both the strong bodyguard and the people under his command.
He was worried that the group of people under his command would be too emotional.
Female reporter Avril whispered: "This is the Longwell residential area in Burbank area. There are police patrols every day. How afraid of death is Juke Wald to hire such a number of security teams?"
The guy next to him explained: "Don't think it's strange, you are also a person in the news industry. You should know how many gunmen suddenly rush into private residences every year, not to mention that Mr. Wald is too rich."
Avril nodded.
Others agreed.
But... they still felt that Zhuke was a little too worried!
Free America, gunfight every day.
The place described is mostly slums, not slums.
The Longwell residential area in the Burbank area is one of the famous gathering areas for wealthy people. Not far away is the Burbank Police Department. Police patrols on every street around it nearly 24 hours a day.
Security is the most basic configuration here.
"Haha, that's what you said now. After the outbreak of 9/11, which rich man has not expanded his security forces around him?"
This is what Zhuke said in his heart.
......
Soon, Andre and his group met Zhuke in the living room of the villa.
"Mr. Wald, long time no see."
As soon as they met, everyone immediately greeted Zhuke.
Zhuke warmly welcomed: "Andre, and everyone sit down, don't stand, Aunt Christina, please bring some cups of coffee, of course, if you need some other drinks, you can also say."
Female reporter Avril's eyes were shining and he looked at Zuc in curiosity.
She graduated from the Department of Media at Columbia University and just entered social work, but she has heard of Zhuke's title more than once.
Hollywood entertainment tycoon, American media giant, financial superman, well-known investor in the Internet industry...
Every person in the media industry is aware of the titles that are being pressed on Zucker, after all, this is a compulsory course.
This was indeed the first time Avril saw Zhuke, and of course he was a little curious.
After some chat, Andre began a formal interview.
“The first question!”
"Mr. Wald, now all people from all walks of life outside are very interested in when the Jinshuguang Entertainment Group under your name will ipo. What do you think?"
Andre asked.
Zhu Ke pondered: "Thank you for your attention to Jin Shuguang Entertainment Group, but when I talk about when I will, to be honest, I have many considerations. Whether to let Wald Pictures, Under Armour Sports Products, TV Group and other subsidiaries go public independently, or whether Jin Shuguang Entertainment Group will go public as a whole, I still need to think about it."
Andre nodded.
In fact, he understood one thing that has been clear that since the outbreak of the Internet bubble in early 2000, the US stock market has been much more cautious about the IPOs of major companies. Even if it wants to go public, it will have to queue up for a long time.
Zhu Ke smiled again: "We are very cautious about whether the company will be listed as a whole or the subsidiary will be listed independently. You know, DreamWorks Group has been struggling countless times to whether to go public as a whole or let its subsidiary DreamWorks Animation go public independently. Until today, Spielberg and Jeffrey have not made a conclusion."
Ding Ding Ding ~
At this moment, Zucker's private phone rang.
"I'll answer the phone first, don't mind," said Zhuke.
Where would Andre and others refute?
The phone is connected.
"I'm Juke Wald, oh, why do you think of coming to see me? OK! Come on, do you need me to arrange someone to welcome you, well, okay, that's it."
After a few simple words, Zhuke hung up the phone.
The caller is named Elon Musk, a well-known playboy in the United States, and is known as the real version of "Iron Man".
Chapter completed!
