Negative effects are spreading to News Corp. Murdoch is being "forced" to the U.S. business. Independent directors of News Corp. Board of Directors hope that Murdoch can announce his succession plan as soon as possible to alleviate shareholders' concerns.

Although the newspapers involved in the scandal represent only a small part of the News Corp's media empire, the eavesdropping scandal has caused the value of News Corp to shrink by billions of dollars, and the stock price has dropped from $18.34 at the time of the scandal to $12.97. The market value of the Murdoch family's holdings in News Corp has also shrunk by $1.5 billion.

When news of former president of News International, Rebecca Brooks, was arrested in the UK, shareholders began to sell stocks in large quantities, and News Corp's stock price fell further. S&P's lowered credit rating was undoubtedly a step further.

News Group's shareholders were originally divided into several factions. In the past, Murdoch could suppress them strongly, but now, the unspeakable forces within the group are beginning to rise, and the strongest faction supports News Group's chief operating officer Peter Chenin to take over his position.

Under internal and external troubles, Murdoch had to drag his old body, physically and mentally exhausted, meet up with Andy Smith, who sounded the horn of silentness and frantically shorted News Corporation, the hungry wolf on Wall Street!

Rockefeller Center, the two large doors of the classical and luxurious office are opened, and the gorgeous decorations and strong colors in the office show elegance and luxury. Under the gorgeous European chandelier, Andy Smith, in a straight suit, stepped on the carpet full of classical beauty, looked at Murdoch who was walking to the door with a smile, and stepped forward to greet him. When two steps away, Andy stretched out his hand.

"Good morning, Rupert, I'm sorry."

Murdoch's face was smiling completely under the fashionable Panama hat. He reached out and shook Andy with a speechless hand.

"You're welcome. The winner must always have the attitude of the winner."

"Haha, please"

Andy did not avoid the sharpness in Murdoch's words, but smiled and accepted it calmly. He did not need to be artificial, he was the winner.

The two walked to the luxurious lounge area and sat opposite each other on the soft sofa. Murdoch took off his Panama hat and stared at Andy with a pair of sinister eyes, relatively speechless.

"Please use your coffee slowly"

Soon, wearing a white chiffon shirt and a black tun group, the little assistant of the black s brought coffee. Murdoch's eyes fell on the little assistant's smiling face with dimples. A shimmer flashed in his eyes, the corners of his mouth slightly raised, and he said lightly: "I have been famous for a long time. When I see you today, it's really alike. It's a pity."

Looking at Murdoch opposite, the words "haggard" and "slim" are not enough to describe his current state. Andy, who was a little sad, shook his head and laughed when he heard the teasing and ridicule in the other party's words, and reached out to signal indifferently, "Taste it, this is the top Blue Mountain Coffee, and with her skills, it is unique and unparalleled."

It is no longer new to the little assistant who looks like someone in the UK. What he said is that he is making fun of Andy and can find someone so similar, but unfortunately he is mocking Andy, that the fake one is fake.

"Oh, is that? Then I really need to taste it." Murdoch raised his eyebrows slightly on his expressionless old face, and reached out to pick up the coffee cup.

Andy also picked up the coffee with a strong smell, smiled slightly, took a sip, and looked at Murdoch, who seemed to be concentrating on tasting coffee on the other side, and the curve of the corners of his mouth became more and more obvious.

The old fox refused to admit defeat and wanted to take the initiative. Unfortunately, no matter how much the fish on the chopping board jumped around, they could not escape the knife!

Even though Murdoch decisively used his heroic tactic to cut off his arm and abandon his car to protect his coach during this period, promised to shut down the 168-year-old World News and give up the acquisition of the British Sky Broadcasting Company, it was still difficult to calm the public's anger. Thank you, goodbye, and the autographed apology letter published by the seven newspapers failed to end the eavesdropping incident, and the situation is still developing towards a more serious situation.

Under the unanimous condemnation of world public opinion, Murdoch and his empire became "trembling old men" and "trembling empire". In addition to the blow of internal and external troubles, another blow to Murdoch was undoubtedly the prince's wing.

According to the news, there are voices within News Corp. Questioning whether 38-year-old James Murdoch is still the hottest candidate to replace Murdoch. News Corp. shareholders not only doubt James' crisis handling ability, but also mocked him for his lack of editorial experience, and even proposed to make his strategy to resign.

What's even more fatal is that in the United States, FBI has begun investigating reports that journalists of News Corp. eavesdropping on the phone calls of victims of the September 11 incident. Then, the most tragic ending for News Corp. will be a crime of violating ethics, and its US TV station's operating license will be revoked in accordance with the US Federal Communications Act. This is undoubtedly a worse injury for the difficult Murdoch News Corp.

To be honest, Andy still admires the News Corp. The News Corp. is definitely one of the largest and most international comprehensive media companies in the world. It has 20th Century Fox Film Company, Fox Broadcasting Company, Fox News Channel, international dating website Myspae, and many newspapers and satellite TVs in the UK and Australia. It is absolutely giant, and Murdoch can be called the first real and may be the last "media tycoon" in the world.

If possible, Andy naturally wanted to defeat or annex the other party directly. Unfortunately, he was really unable to do so at this time.

"Bang"

Murdoch put the coffee cup in his hand on the table, looked at Andy expressionlessly, with a sharp and gloomy gaze, and said coldly: "When are you going to stop?"

Hearing the other party's arrogant accusation tone, Andy was not angry, but smiled and put down the coffee cup, leaned on the back of the sofa with a little looseness, spread his hands, and smiled lightly: "I first learned that Wall Street was a memory from a long time ago, but I knew it was a magical place, and my heart was full of yearning.

As I grew up, I only had the impression of it that the sleepless capital era, the sleepless Wall Street. I even felt disdainful of Wall Street because of my aloofness... Haha"

Andy shook his head and laughed, his smile full of self-deprecating. He didn't care that what he said was not what Murdoch wanted to hear and stopped. Instead, he continued to say to himself: "When I really go in, I realize that it is a financial network that spreads to the world. This network is powerful and fragile, light and dark. This network can both accelerate the economy and suffocate the economy. He is Wall Street!

Stop? It’s time to strangle and make a profit. Rupert, you have to know that capital does not believe in tears!

Haha, I know that many people outside say behind my back that I am a hungry Wall Street wolf and a greedy vampire, but I don’t care, just like I don’t care about methods, only about winning or losing. My chief think tank once taught me: “If you want to find friends on Wall Street, then find a dog. The outside world is close-kick battle.

Andy said with a smile on his eyes, as if he had smelled a bloody shark, and subconsciously touched his mouth.

Murdoch frowned silently. He knew better than anyone else that behind the prosperity of New York's colorful world is an unknown bloody battle. Those large conglomerates can do anything for the sake of their interests. Yes, the competition for capital is always a tireless and dangerous struggle.

"The New York Post has posted a letter of apology to you and your family for the front page for a week... and, I promise, all the media under News Corp. will not report gossip about you from today!

I know you have always wanted to take back the copyright of the X-Men. I can agree and give you half of the copyright. Marvel can use Mutants…”

"Ha ha……"

Andy interrupted Murdoch's words with a big laugh, and kept laughing until Murdoch's face turned black. Because of his frowning, the frown on his forehead was obvious and almost able to kill the flies. Then he slowly restrained his smile, his eyes were burning, and a cold light flashed, and a sneer appeared on his cold face.

"Rupert, you are really old. Whether you can accept it or not, the new era is a cruel reality of "winners all". Do you really think that the self-righteous conditions you mentioned can replace hundreds of millions of dollars?

Don't be stupid!"
