Chapter 416: Marvel's Status Quo

In fact, Zheng Yan doesn't want to deal with this kind of person, but he is determined to win Marvel, so it is inevitable to meet this wolf.

"Bill, is it possible for us to complete the acquisition of Marvel in other ways, such as suppressing Marvel in the stock market and bankrupting it?"

Hearing Zheng Yan's words, Bill Miller was also taken aback. Since he met Zheng Yan, no matter what he does, Zheng Yan will take a relatively gentle approach, and such a tough attitude is the first time Bill Miller has seen it.

"Zheng Yan, this method is indeed feasible, and with the strength of Yanhuang Investment, it is very easy to do this, but the gains and losses outweigh the losses. ”

"On the one hand, we don't necessarily have to pay less than we did for outright acquisitions. In addition, taking such an extreme way can easily arouse the disgust of others, which will cause a great blow to the reputation of Yanhuang Investment. Just for a Marvel, it's not worth it at all. ”

Originally, Zheng Yan just mentioned it casually, if it was not necessary, he didn't want to take this way, after listening to Bill Miller's words, Zheng Yan directly dispelled this idea.

In Zheng Yan's opinion, winning Marvel with 300 million US dollars is a good thing for pie in the sky, but after listening to Bill Miller's evaluation of Ron Pereman, Zheng Yan always feels a little uncomfortable.

"Well, Bill, you can help me contact Ron Pereman, I want to meet him in person. As for what to do next, we'll make another plan. ”

"I'm afraid not. As soon as Zheng Yan's words fell, he was denied by Bill Miller, "If you really want to win Marvel, it's best not to come forward in person." Now the whole Wall Street has heard rumors about you in the investment community, and once you are personally involved in the negotiations, it will only make Ron Pereman sit on the ground. ”

Zheng Yan didn't have a clear understanding of what his name meant on Wall Street, but Bill Miller was different. Even if Zheng Yan has not appeared for several years, as long as Zheng Yan appears, he will still be the focus of everyone's attention.

"Bill, let's put it this way, no matter what, I won't give up on the acquisition of Marvel. Needless to say, 300 million dollars, even 600 million, I can accept it. In my opinion, the value of Marvel is far more than that, but I haven't met anyone who can discover these values. ”

"According to you, Ron Perreman is just trying to squeeze the residual value of Marvel, presumably as long as he can sell the copyright, he will not leave it to Marvel, and what I value is the copyright of those comics, so we have to move quickly. If possible, the rights to X-Men, which had already been sold to Twentieth Century Fox, would also be bought. ”

It's just that the films adapted from Marvel Comics that Zheng Yan has an impression of have generated a box office of about $40 billion, and if you add some that Zheng Yan ignores, the profits are really amazing. If you count the surrounding value, I'm afraid the profit will increase several times, how can Zheng Yan be willing to give up?

After listening to Zheng Yan's words, Bill Miller became even more strange. Marvel has also tried to put those superheroes on the screen, but now it seems that not only has not improved Marvel's situation, but has increased Marvel's debt.

Zheng Yan's ability to write scripts is indeed very good, but the two films "Schindler's List" and "Truman's World" have conquered most people in Hollywood. But how can Zheng Yan be sure that the adaptation of Marvel Comics will be successful?

However, Bill Miller also knew that this was not a matter for him to care about, and after thinking for a while, he said: "Zheng Yan, if that's the case, I think you can meet Stan Lee before meeting Ron Pereman." ”

"Since the 40s, Stan Lee has been working at Marvel, he has participated in the production of almost all Marvel comics, and he has at least half of the credit for the Marvel empire that was built at the beginning, so he is also known as the father of Marvel, and now Stan Lee is still one of the directors of Marvel. ”

"It's just a pity that Stan Lee has a talent for comics that is hard for ordinary people to achieve, but he is not good at running a company. If anyone wants to find a way out for Marvel the most, it must be Stan Lee, after all, he has dedicated most of his life to Marvel. ”

Of course, Zheng Yan is no stranger to Stan Lee, and he also knows that Stan Lee is just a giant in the comic industry, but it won't be long before he becomes a master producer in Hollywood. Not only that, but he will also become the most famous guest master.

Zheng Yan was indeed a little moved by Bill Miller's proposal, but suddenly felt that it was wrong, and asked with a smile: "Bill, you should have met Stan Lee already, right?

Hearing Zheng Yan's question, Bill Miller smiled awkwardly and did not speak.

Just as Zheng Yan thought, Bill Miller did want to take the road of saving the country by curves after negotiations with Ron Pereman were fruitless. It's just a pity that Stan Lee's control over Marvel is extremely low, and he is powerless to resist Ron Pereman's decision.

Originally, Zheng Yan was just guessing, but after seeing Bill Miller's expression, Zheng Yan had already got the answer, "That's it, Bill, let's put Marvel's affairs first, but don't give up negotiations with Ron Pereman." ”

"Since this person is the supreme interest, now we have shown the attitude of wanting to take over Marvel, in order to sell Marvel at a good price, in a short period of time, he will not easily sell all kinds of copyrights, he knows the value of Marvel better than us. ”

"Of course, you don't show up again for the next negotiations, just send someone from the company. We want to let the other party know that we do intend to buy Marvel, but we don't seem to pay that much attention to it, so we will cool him down for a while. ”

"As for Stan Lee, I'm very interested in him, but it's not the time to meet yet. When we become masters of Marvel, I would very much welcome him to stay and work at Dragon if he wants to. ”

To deal with greedy people, there is naturally a way to deal with greedy people. Just put the opportunity in front of you, but don't let you get it, this feeling of gain and loss is the most uncomfortable.

As for whether this method is effective, Zheng Yan doesn't care. If it succeeds, Zheng Yan can save a sum of money for Long Teng, if it doesn't work, just take the opportunity to torture Ron Pereman, Zheng Yan is also very happy.

"Alright, that's it for now, you might as well tell me about the Mosaic web browser first, how far has it go?"
