Beverly Hills, inside a semi-circular villa.

In the hall where Xia Jingxing and the foreign girls were once hosted, Murdoch, his wife Wendi Deng, and his son James Murdoch were chatting happily with representatives of the Directors Guild of America, Screenwriters Guild, Actors Guild and other groups, bursting into laughter from time to time .

"Mr. Murdoch, you can rest assured that this is an act of safeguarding the common interests of our film and television industry, and our Directors Association is obliged to do so."

The head of the directors' association showed a very indignant look, and then began to criticize YouTube, talking about YouTube's disrespect for intellectual property rights and infringement of the legitimate rights and interests of others.

With the first person to take the lead, representatives of screenwriters, actors, music and other associations also spoke one after another. They all said that they would follow the pace of News Corporation and sue Youtube together, and they would also mobilize the forces in their circles to let members of the association join together. In the army of criticizing YouTube.

Seeing this, the old Murdoch let out a long series of smug laughter.

Many directors, screenwriters, and actors in the United States have the right to share the follow-up income of their works. The proportion may not be large, but it is not a small sum of money accumulated over time.

Now YouTube abuses copyright, which not only damages the interests of the production company to which the copyright belongs, but also offends the film and television practitioners along with it.

Among them, there are many famous directors, famous screenwriters, and star actors.

These people are famous, as long as they raise their arms, there must be a gathering of followers.

Considering this, Murdoch emphasized: "This is not only a matter for our production company, but also a matter for major associations, and even more so for all practitioners.

I hope that everyone will unite and win this lawsuit together. In addition to recovering some losses, we will also show the power of our film and television industry to the outside world. "

As soon as Murdoch's words fell, someone immediately began to flatter his feet.

"Mr Murdoch is right about what he said, we have to show our unity to the outside world."

"Piracy is rampant, Internet companies are unkind, we all have to act!"

"Thanks to Mr. Murdoch taking the lead, otherwise we would all be at a loss, how could we find the right direction for rights protection."

...

Listening to this bunch of rainbow farts, the corners of Murdoch's mouth rose slightly.

Now he wants to unite all the forces that can be united and deal the most fatal blow to YouTube.

If the court is the first battlefield, then the public opinion field is the second battlefield.

These people can be regarded as the reinforcements he found for the second battlefield.

Among them, what he valued the most was the Actors Association.

There are a large number of world-renowned actors in this association, and the fans are calculated in tens of millions or billions, and all of them have great influence.

If even these people voice their voices to boycott YouTube, saying that they want to investigate YouTube’s legal responsibilities, then YouTube will inevitably lose ground in the wind of public opinion.

At that time, News Corporation will use its media to fuel the flames, and I believe it will make YouTube understand what it means to be surrounded by all sides.

At this time, a representative of the Music Association asked: "Hey, by the way, Mr. Murdoch, I heard that Bill Gates decided to invest in YouTube. Have you paid attention to this matter?"

Murdoch said lightly: "Isn't this good? There is new financing coming in, which happens to be used to pay our compensation."

"Hahaha~"

All the people in the room laughed, and instantly understood Murdoch's thoughts.

The old man will not stop this operation because of Gates' intervention.

As friendly forces, seeing Murdoch, who is in the main battle, has such a firm will to fight, it relieved their hearts.

After communicating in detail for a while, Murdoch asked his son to send away the invited reinforcements.

After a while, James returned to the banquet hall.

"Father, the influence of these people is still very limited in the final analysis. If I ask you, we still have to start with the members of the two houses to promote the revision of the Copyright Act..."

Murdoch's expression did not change, but he was scolding his son for being an idiot in his heart. He really thought that the MPs were their slaves, and if he said to amend the bill, he would amend it.

"James, you have to remember,

Giving and receiving are always equal. "

Murdoch stared at his son. After a while, the old man sighed: "It's a pity that those short-sighted guys were blinded by such a small profit. Otherwise, the six major companies will make a move together, and things will be much easier."

James spread his hands, "Can't we do it without them? We have their criminal evidence in our hands."

"Shut up!"

Murdoch sternly reprimanded his son, and looked around. There were only father and son in the room. Wendi Deng had been driven away by him just now, and the conversation environment was still very safe.

"Are you an idiot? This is our hole card, and it must not be used until the critical moment!"

James also realized that he had said the wrong thing. This is their core secret. If it is leaked, News Corp. will have to take off a layer of skin if it is not dead.

"Okay, father, I see." James said in a low voice.

Murdoch looked at his son, who was not very talented, and sighed in his heart, there is no successor!

When his son was studying at Harvard University, he did not choose the major of business administration or journalism and communication related to the family business, which is the favorite of wealthy children, but went to major in film and history.

When I was in my third year of college, I dropped out of school and started a hip-hop music record company with two classmates.

The venture was fairly successful, with an annual profit of $2.5 million.

But insiders know that the reason why many singers want to sign with James' record company is entirely because of the surname "Murdoch", and it has nothing to do with James' personal efforts.

In the end, he bought his son's record company, and James "reformed" and started his career in News Corporation.

From the manager of the digital media department of Fox TV in the United States, to the chairman of Asia Star TV, and now the president of British Sky Broadcasting.

The old Murdoch placed a lot of expectations on his son, hoping that he would not fall into the reputation of his parents.

However, James' performance is mediocre, and his performance can be described as lackluster.

Not brilliant, not screwed up.

However, mediocrity is a kind of decline for a family like theirs.

Just as Murdoch was about to educate his son, James' cell phone rang suddenly.

"What are you talking about? MySpace site was hacked? Is the tech department crap? It's been half an hour and it hasn't been fixed yet?"

James picked up the phone, listened to it for a few seconds, and started swearing, with an angry expression on his face.

Murdoch vaguely heard words such as "hacking attack" and "website crash", and felt a little uneasy. Seeing his son hang up the phone, he was about to ask questions when James' phone rang again.

"The Dow Jones and Wall Street Journal websites are also down? Fake squid, do you know how important the Dow Jones financial index is, and how many financial companies need to access it at any time...

I'll give you half an hour, and if you can't fix the site, I'll fix you. "

Murdoch looked at his son who was becoming more and more manic, and frowned, the feeling of uneasiness in his heart became heavier.

Just as Murdoch was about to ask a question, his cell phone rang...

"Demonstrators appeared in front of hundreds of movie theaters in all 50 states of the United States? Fox TV network suffered large-scale unsubscription?"

Immediately, Murdoch, who claims to be well-bred, also began to curse, which was worse than his son James.

The banquet hall, which was full of laughter and laughter just now, suddenly became smoky, full of obscene language from the two fathers and sons greeting their reproductive organs.

After hanging up a phone call, the father and son hadn't bothered to say a few words when the next phone rang again.

At this moment, News Corp.'s industries distributed all over the world are flying to the US headquarters like snowflakes. The management of the headquarters dare not neglect, and hastened to report to the Murdoch father and son.

After almost half an hour, the calls finally thinned out.

James hung up the phone, feeling a little parched, and licked his dry lips. Looking back, he saw his father clutching his lower body tightly, his face in pain, and there was a large water stain on the ground.

"Father, what's wrong with you?" James hurried over to support the old man, his voice anxious.

"James... Hurry... Take me to the hospital, my bladder feels like it's exploded." Murdoch was a little weak even to speak because of the pain in his whole body.

James immediately turned pale, the old man had prostate cancer.

In the past few years after the diagnosis, the place has not been cut with a scalpel, and radiation and chemotherapy have been carried out.

His condition had already improved greatly, but who would have thought that such a situation would appear today.

In a panic, the terrified James began to scream for help.

The whole villa suddenly jumped up and down.

In the end, Murdoch was carried into a car on a stretcher by several bodyguards and rushed to the hospital...
