默多克堅決放棄時代華納收購計劃

　　默多克堅決放棄時代華納收購計劃 　　Rupert Murdoch has said that he is resolute in his decision to drop a $80bn bid for Time Warner. 　　魯伯特默多克稱，他對自己放棄800億美元收購時代華納的決定很堅決。 　　The comments were made on a conference call to discuss 21st Century Fox s second quarter earnings, which were a better-than-expected $999m. 　　There was surprise on Tuesday when Fox abandoned its bid, given Mr Murdoch s tenacity when pursuing previous deals. 　　But Mr Murdoch said Fox s shares had become severely undervalued following the takeover offer. 　　He said that prompted the announcement of a major share buyback, which Mr Murdoch said would maximise value for shareholders. 　　This is our resolute decision, Mr Murdoch said. 　　While we remain opportunistic and nimble, we are a strategically complete company and have a clear sense of where we are going. 　　X-Men impact 　　Fox s latest results showed that revenue in the second quarter increased by 17% to $8.42bn. 　　Sales at the company s film division increased by 38%, driven by the strong global performance of X-Men: Days of Future Past, which took in an estimated $740m worldwide. 　　There were two other hits - the animated comedy Rio 2 and the teen drama The Fault in Our Stars. 　　As we close the fiscal year, I continue to have confidence in our ability to execute our growth plan and drive value for our shareholders, said Mr Murdoch in a statement accompanying earnings.
