Wanda intends to acquire Orange Manufacturing, and then operate independently under Paramount...

In Hollywood, a company that only has production capabilities, unless it continues to enrich its product line and business, the future lies in being acquired by a company with more business than it.

Every big company has one or several small independent production companies, Disney has Touchstone Pictures, Miramax Films, Timon Films, etc...

A premium of 50 percent is also considered a superior condition.

The current market value of Orange Manufacturing is estimated to be $1.5 billion - pure content manufacturing is not favored in the United States!

Even DreamWorks Animation's market capitalization is only $2.2 billion, and Lionsgate's market capitalization is $5 billion, half of which is the valuation of Starz TV Network.

In other words, if Lu Xiaoran is willing, he can directly cash out $1.8 billion and leave the market...

"First, we're not short of money, and we've signed an agreement with Netflix for three to five TV series a year, which is a steady cash flow, and second, I think the current market value is a bit insulting to Orange Manufacturing, if you want to buy it, you can, I'm going to have a price similar to Paramount!"

“... But orange manufacturing has only been established for three years..."

"So what?"

Zeng Maojun still wanted to say something, but Lu Xiaoran also made it clear: "I'm not short of money!"

Xu Yuanxiang diverted the topic: "Wanda's acquisition of Paramount, there must be many obstacles!"

Zeng Maojun began to pour bitter water: "There are many obstacles, in addition to the voice within Viacom, there are many political factors..."

Lu Xiaoran did not participate in the discussion of this topic, in fact, orange manufacturing also has a lot of voices in Lao Mei...

The loudest voice was 'this is a Chinese company'...

It's better now, when Jianguo comes to power and isolationism prevails, it will be difficult for Lu Xiaoran...

It is necessary to build a foundation and control oranges through the foundation.

Lu Xiaoran was very satisfied with Huang Kai, and the two exchanged contact information.

There are a lot of orange businesses, and there are not enough talents, so being able to dig one is a...

Many of the Pony's high-level leaders were re-recruited by Zhong Lifang.

The pony is very messy, the family business, the heart is not aligned, the equity realization promise mentioned before, after the big dog brother left, Li Ping and Li Li did not admit it at all, and then a bunch of core backbones resigned in frustration...

For film and television companies, the core backbone determines the performance of an enterprise...

Therefore, Lu Xiaoran attaches great importance to talents, and made a phone call to Zhong Lifang and asked her to investigate Huang Kai.

If possible, Lu Xiaoran needs a person to be stationed in North America to participate in the operation and management of orange manufacturing...

As for Zeng Maojun, in fact, those who know a little bit about investment know that mergers and acquisitions, to put it bluntly, a healthy enterprise that is willing to buy and sell is willing to sell, and keeps a profit often wants to develop independently and will not sell itself.

Why does Wanda buy cinemas all over the world?

And it can go so smoothly?

It's because the cinema belongs to the sunset industry, and the profitability is not high!

The reason why Wanda dares to do this is that she wants to lay it from downstream to upstream, buy theaters all over the world, and achieve the ability to distribute movies simultaneously around the world - so far, there are only a few Hollywood companies that can achieve global simultaneous distribution, and Orange is working hard, and at present, it has only signed contracts with the bottom three of the four major theater chains in North America, and releases more than 14 movies every year.

AMC is not the first in North America, and now the first is the Imperial Cinema Line...

So why didn't "The Great Wall" be released globally?

You have to consider whether the schedule is appropriate...

Forget it, don't wash it, Lao Wang doesn't know enough about the film industry!

Still want to buy orange manufacturing?

Why don't you package up Orange Images?

......

Domestically, "One Step Away" was released and won 400 million yuan at the box office in the first weekend!

Normal commercial film logic, this is a movie that will break a billion box office!

However, word-of-mouth is highly polarized.

Those who like it say, 'Natural image style, unbridled imagination!' The film pays tribute to several classics of film history, which is a carnival for filmmakers and a gospel for movie fans. The opening "The Godfather", black and white images, pseudo-record editing, this is Jiang Wen's "Hugo". ’

Belch...

"Hugo" lost eight years to Martin Scorsese to slow down...

With this one-of-a-kind copy, Jiang Wen is not too capricious! You guys, you only deserve to watch "Let the Bullets Fly". ’

Those who don't like it directly say: "I don't understand!"

"I wanted to leave the scene a few times, and the whole nonsense was the whole Jiba 3D!"

Lu Xiaoran is itching...

Unfortunately, there are no theaters in North America.

After reading a bunch of reviews, Lu Xiaoran probably understood why "One Step Away" failed miserably at the box office!

Because Jiang Wen was not ready to take the popular route, he wanted to shoot something that he thought was fun...

If you follow this argument, "One Step Away" should be an experimental film, it is a pioneering attempt, which will consider technology, performance, and narrative, but it will definitely not consider the box office!

Very few experimental films choose to recoup their costs through screening.

Because avant-garde means niche, movies are always mass media, and big productions with big investments must be easy to understand!

This is a valuable experience that Hollywood has taken the world by storm for decades.

Actually, you want to play with new ideas, want to play with deconstruction, and want to make your movies different, which is understandable, after all, you love movies!

But with an investment of 300 million, what is made should not be incomprehensible.

What's more, when this movie was promoted, a bunch of people said 'the box office broke 2.5 billion', 'kill "Transformers 4"...

Why do you need 2.5 billion to kill "Change 4"?

You just said that you killed "Gravity" and "Outwitting Tiger Mountain"...

Jiang Wen's attitude made people very unhappy, and answered the reporter's question: Can't you understand "One Step Away"? Art is for appreciation, and arithmetic needs to be understood!

At first glance, it makes sense, a fine product, a groove, this is narcissism!

There are also a bunch of Jiang Wen's supporters who said directly: You can't understand this movie? Go home and buy a few books!

Once the word-of-mouth of a big production with an investment of 300 million yuan is polarized, it means that a large number of audiences do not recognize...

The box office decline can be called a shootable: on the 21st, it can still get a box office result of 82 million, and the box office on weekdays has dropped directly to 23.66 million...

Of course, the word-of-mouth of "One Step Away" is polarized, and the word-of-mouth of "Love Saint", which was released on the 24th, is also polarized...

I really didn't expect this at all...

"Love Saint" was squirted out by some people - not that I can't understand it, but straight male cancer, it's disgusting to watch...

The theme of this movie is an attempt to cheat, which is a fantasy of a middle-aged man, so such a theme is bound to damage the family...

Lu Xiaoran read the script - he recommended "The Girl in Red" to Song Xiaofei at that time, but he only felt that Song Xiaofei was a chicken thief, and he actually changed the script to a dream...

You scolded him for straight male cancer, and he said, 'It's a dream', by the way, this movie is a remake of "The Lady in Red"...

Haven't seen "The Lady in Red"?

‘i just called to say i love you...’
