94 years ago today, on March 11, 1931 (January 23, 1931 lunar calendar), newspaper magnate Rupert Murdoch was born. Murdoch was born in Melbourne on March 11, 1931. In just 20 years, he developed from a tabloid boss to an international newspaper king, and many dying newspapers could be brought back to life in his hands, known as the newspaper geek Murdoch. Murdoch Newspaper Group's investment is extremely extensive. In addition to publishing, it has been involved in everything from propaganda media to television stations to oil drilling and sheep herding. As early as the 1970s, it owned 50% of Sydney TV Channel 10, Melbourne TV Channel 10 and Ansai Airlines in China, and operated Happy Records and Book Companies. The development in foreign countries has been rapid. In 1983, he first bought a 69% stake in a satellite TV company in London, and then half of Hollywood's "Twentieth Century Fox" in the United States. In 1985, he bought six local TV stations in New York, Los Angeles, Chicago, Houston, Dallas and Washington under the fourth largest TV group in the United States "Metropolitan Media Company" for $1.50 billion, which caused a sensation in the Western world with "Murdoch's whirlwind". In 1998 Murdoch bought Manchester United football club in the United Kingdom for a huge sum of money.
