"To be honest, I have some interest in the five cinemas of Jinling Magic Shadow Warner, but it is still a little difficult to win them all at once. Chen Hao said.

Greg said, "The investment in the five cinemas has reached a total of 100 million yuan, of which Warner accounts for 75% of the shares, that is, 75 million yuan, which is not as much as what you can earn from a movie." ”

"You're exaggerating, and I'm not only a theater company, I have to use money everywhere, and I really can't get it out for a while. Chen Hao said with a smile.

"Well, how about we use the 75 million to invest in your Tianji Pictures? Greg said suddenly.

Chen Hao couldn't help but scold secretly when he heard this, thinking beautifully, "No need, Tianqi Pictures is not short of money for the time being." ”

"That's a shame. Greg lamented, "Then why don't you make an offer!"

"35 million yuan, in addition, I also want the film rights of Aquaman, Wonder Woman, Shazam, and the League of the Justice. Chen Hao said with a smile.

Although Warner Bros. occupies 75% of the equity of the theater chain, it does not mean that it really paid 75 million real money, they must have also paid for it, but a considerable part of it is invested in technology and management.

The real big one is still the magic shadow who wants to use Warner technology and fame, so Chen Hao's bid of 40 million is not less.

In addition, Warners is the parent company of Marvel's nemesis DC, owning the rights to DC superheroes, such as Aquaman, Wonder Woman, Shazam, Justice League and so on.

Although the Justice League is far less popular than Marvel, it is also a superhero team brand that is benchmarked against the Avengers, not to mention that the box office of the single superhero series is also good.

And now that even the Avengers have not succeeded, Warner Bros. naturally will not have a plan to launch the Justice League, maybe they will be able to steal chickens.

As for DC's two top brands, Superman and Batman, it must be wishful thinking, so Chen Hao didn't even mention it.

"35 million is too little, and when did you become interested in DC Comics superheroes?" asked Greg.

"I'm interested in all comic book superheroes, not just Marvel. Chen Hao said with a smile.

"The price is 70 million, and the DC superhero copyright can be considered in addition to Superman and Batman, but the age limit is only 10 years!" Greg laughed.

Now DC Comics is much better than Marvel, and the box office of superhero movies adapted is far better than Marvel's.

After all, Superman and Batman were adapted twenty or thirty years ago and were a great success, and now with the success of "The Mystery of the Shadow", Batman is once again rejuvenated, and Superman is once again in the program.

DC's two biggest names are about to return to the big screen!

However, DC and Marvel have encountered the same problem, that is, in addition to the two major names, other superhero movies can be described as fiascos, such as the Green Lantern not long ago, blood loss!

Warner may have wanted to launch a superhero team brand based on the X-Men series of Twentieth Century Fox, so it chose Green Lantern, with the Green Lantern behind him.

But Green Lantern has a grand background, and the adaptation was not successful, which also made Warner's plan end at the beginning!

"Okay, I can buy these 5 theaters if the conditions are right, but I will let a special person negotiate the specific conditions with Warners. Chen Hao said.

"OK, no problem. Greg nodded.

Now Warner has made the decision to fully withdraw from the mainland cinema market.

75% of Warner Holdings' Jinling Magic Shadow Warner Cinemas have been built in these 5, but in fact, there are still 30 cinemas to be built in the original plan, but now they have been cancelled directly.

Even the magic capital Yongsheng Cinema, which has maintained the annual box office champion in the mainland for many years, does not want it.

Not to mention the more than 30 Warner Studios developed in cooperation with Wanda.

Now, Warner is looking for buyers everywhere in the mainland, the magic capital Yongsheng Cinema has found the magic shadow, and the cooperation with Wanda has naturally found Wanda, which accounts for 49% of the shares, but it is not in a hurry.

The most urgent thing is that 5 Jinling Magic Shadow Warner Studios with a 75% holding, because the time is too short, it is good to be able to find someone willing to take over, so it is inevitable that the price will be lower!

Because the negotiations between Hu Jin and Marvel continued, Chen Hao stayed at Marvel without incident, and returned directly to Tianzhi Pictures.

"Mr. Chen?" Smart was stunned when he saw Chen Hao, he hadn't received any news in advance that Chen Hao had come to the United States.

"Smart, what have you been busy with lately?" Chen Hao said with a smile.

"Of course, I'm busy with the release of the company's films. Smart said, "The four films invested and produced by the company have all been completed, and all of them are scheduled to be released in September and October." ”

"Human Skin Inn" will be released on September 16, "Hurricane Rescue 2" is scheduled for October 7, "Saw 4" is on Halloween on October 31, and "Beast Meal" is scheduled for November 18.

"What about The Martian?" Chen Hao asked.

"It's still Christmas, December 16th, of course!" Smart said.

Although the Christmas file is not as good as the summer file, because there are many holidays during the period, there is also a chance to achieve good box office results.

And the Christmas file is already in the North American awards season, which is a very suitable schedule for movies that want to hit the awards.

For "The Martian", Smart believes that there is a certain expectation at the box office, after all, "The Man Without a Name" earned $56.5 million at the box office, and Zhuyu is in front.

And Chow Yun-fa's performance is good, he should be able to be nominated for some awards and even win awards, which is also good for the box office.

Therefore, the Christmas file is the most suitable schedule for Chen Hao's Chinese films!

Chen Hao nodded when he heard this, and then said, "I am going to buy Marvel, and I should use the funds of the measuring scale, but it will not affect the company's budget next year." ”

Smart took a deep breath when he heard this, and then nodded, his young boss still made a move on Marvel.

The company now has $218 million on its books, almost all of which is revenue from The Hangover.

Now it seems that it is going to be hollowed out, but fortunately, the company will have 4 new films released soon, and there should be no break in the capital chain at that time.

Subsequently, Revon Nal came to Chen Hao, and at the behest of Chen Hao, he spent $5 million to buy a best-selling film and television adaptation, "Twilight"!

In the evening, Chen Hao took Xiaoying back to his Beverly Hills villa, and Xiaoying was dumbfounded, this guy is really buying villas everywhere, what a waste of money!

When Chen Hao was taking Xiaoying to visit the villa, he suddenly received a call from Hu Jin.

"Mr. Chen, it's been negotiated, come to sign the contract tomorrow, and then pay the money, Marvel is yours!" Hu Jin said with a smile.

Chen Hao was excited when he heard this, and couldn't help but hug Xiaoying beside him and turn around, although he had already had an intention, but now that it has been implemented, he is still inevitably excited.

After all, this is the Marvel that swept the world in the future, and now, it's mine!
