573, complete the acquisition!
,
Three days later.
Hu Shuo and Hu Xiaoshan, two siblings, went to Los Angeles with several staff members.
"Brother, you've been really big lately!"
On the plane, Hu Xiaoshan said with emotion.
"What's the matter, do you have any opinions?" asked Hu Shuo.
"I'm a little confused. ”
Hu Xiaoshan said with a serious face: "I think even if you want to enter the animation market in the United States, there is no need to acquire a large company like Fantasy Park all at once, the cost is too high, in fact, we can set up a small company and try the water first, but the direct acquisition of such a large animation company, even the company's operating costs are a huge expense, I think some of the gains outweigh the losses." ”
"Any other ideas?"
Hu Shuo asked with a smile.
"That's all I need to think about for now. Hu Xiaoshan said.
"Okay, then I'll report to Mr. Hu what I think. ”
Hu Shuo smiled and said: "First of all, I want to acquire Fantasyland not only to enter the Hollywood animation market, at this stage, their special effects production team is what I need the most, in addition, as a veteran animation company, although the main project of Fantasyland is animation, they have also produced many animation movies, so the distribution team of Fantasyland is still very experienced, especially for the North American and European markets, which is also what I need next." ”
"As for entering the animation market in the United States, I have been planning for a long time, and I have written a lot of detailed outlines of my works, so after completing the acquisition of Fantasyland, I can directly use the company's painters to turn the details I wrote into comic works, and Fantasyland, as an old animation company, has a first-class animation promotion and distribution channel in the United States, which is not comparable to a small company, which can allow a new work to quickly enter the American market, and will soon get feedback from the market, which is an advantage that only a large company like Dreamland has!”
"Of course, another reason is that the talent pool in all aspects of Fantasy Park is very perfect, and I don't need to spend a long time to build a team, so that once the company has a big hit, it will not be in a hurry, and the scale of Fantasy Park is completely affordable!"
Hu Shuo spoke in detail about his considerations.
"There is some truth, but if your new works are not recognized by the market, you will still lose money!"
Hu Xiaoshan said with a frown.
"So, I bet that my new works will have at least one or two that will be recognized by the market, and as long as one or two can be recognized by the market, it is enough, after all, the peripheral development ability of a company like Fantasyland is very amazing!"
Hu Shuo replied.
"Okay!"
"My confident brother!"
Hu Xiaoshan shrugged his shoulders slightly.
After a dozen hours of flight, the group arrived in Los Angeles.
Wang Qi has been waiting at the airport for a long time.
Everyone got into the business car driven by Wang Qi and went straight to the hotel.
In fact, Hu Shuo can not stay in a hotel, because Yang Wanli has bought a house in Los Angeles, but this time there are more entourages, so it is more convenient to stay in a hotel.
The group first went to the hotel to rest for a while, and then had a meal together.
The next morning.
Hu Shuo and Hu Xiaoshan, accompanied by Wang Qi, went to the headquarters of Fantasyland together.
This is a large manor with an area of more than ten hectares, built like a large park, and the manor is full of statues of anime characters under the umbrella of Fantasyland, and there are many playground facilities in the manor.
Walking through the estate is less like a company and more like a large playground.
There are a total of five office buildings of different shapes in the manor, each with its own independent role, and for Hu Shuo and Hu Xiaoshan, who came here for the first time, everything here shocked them.
"It's a fantasy land!"
"It is one of the holy places in the anime industry!"
Hu Xiaoshan sighed quietly!
"So, Scholes is actually a very idealistic person, so much so that when he sells the company, he is also very idealistic, he wants to find someone to take over everything here, and to continue everything here, he wants Dreamland to always exist......"
Wang Qi said.
"It's a very idealistic company indeed!"
Looking at the surrounding scenery, Hu Shuo also sighed.
After the three of them walked through the large green space under the guidance of the staff, they finally came to the main office building of Fantasyland, and at this moment, the current owner of Fantasyland, Scholes, was already waiting at the door.
"Welcome~!"
"I've been waiting for a long time......"
After the meeting, Scholes greeted him politely.
"I really didn't expect that the next owner of Fantasyland would be so young!"
After seeing Hu Shuo, Scholes was very surprised.
"You're also very young......"
Hu Shuo said politely.
The group entered the office building, because Wang Qi had already completed the preliminary negotiation work, so after Hu Shuo and Scholes exchanged a few words, they went straight to the point and signed the agreement in the conference room.
The billion-dollar business is done.
"Congratulations on becoming the new owner of Fantasyland, I hope you can treat it well and everyone in Dreamland!"
After signing the contract, Scholes said with a sincere face.
"Don't worry, I will!"
Hu Shuo nodded with a smile.
"Well, I believe you, because you look amazing!"
Scholes praised again!
"Thank you for the compliment!"
Hu Shuo smiled.
After signing the agreement, Hu Shuo had lunch with Scholes.
In the afternoon, Hu Shuo held a high-level meeting of Fantasyland, the main purpose of which was to announce to the company's employees that Fantasyland had changed hands.
In addition, Hu Shuo announced at the meeting that he would not lay off employees, usually, after a company is acquired, employees are most worried about being laid off, so Hu Shuo's decision is tantamount to giving employees a reassurance, which is very conducive to the stability of the company.
Of course, Hu Shuo also said that those who want to leave their jobs can also get due compensation in accordance with American law.
The meeting was simple and ended quickly.
However, in the evening, the news of the acquisition of Fantasyland appeared in the major media in the United States.
Los Angeles Express: The company from Huaxia has completed the acquisition of Fantasyland!
Hollywood Entertainment: $1.4 Billion!
The Telegraph: Neverland was sold to the Chinese by Scholes!
