For Americans, it's called a villa outside the suburbs. As the saying goes, "the rich live in the woods, and the middle class lives on the lawns"!

Khachedon Manor, Wen Ziren's new home.

"Damn, you're enjoying life now?"

Looking at the layout and decoration of this manor, Zhang Junsheng couldn't help but burst into a foul language!

At least 2000 square meters!

“… $4 million, not too expensive, I bought it. ”

Wen Ziren explained...

That's the case, Wen Ziren owns 12% of the equity of Summit Entertainment, and last year, Summit Entertainment made a profit of almost 400 million, although he did not pay dividends to shareholders, but as a producer, he enjoyed 5% of the surrounding shares...

Not to mention $4 million, even if it is tripled, he can afford it.

Zhang Junsheng was a little shocked: "... It's only $4 million?"

"That's right, 4 million US dollars, converted to a little more than 30 million yuan!"

“… The house I bought in Yanjing is not half the size of yours, more than 40 million!"

“… That's in Yanjing, Mandeville, Los Angeles, Santa Monica's mansion is priced at $100,000 per unit!"

"Walter?"

Wen Ziren stopped talking.

It is said that the housing prices in the United States are cheap, why don't you say that we also have cheap housing prices in China?

……

In the living room, Wen Ziren poured Zhang Junsheng a glass of fat house happy water, hesitated, Zhang Junsheng still took a sip: "The last "Dawn" is divided into two parts!"

"Don't worry, we've got the plan ready!"

"Does Stephanie Mayer have any plans to write about it?"

"Extra?"

“J· K. Rowling is writing "Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them", which can be seen as an addition to "Harry Potter", and it is said that eight movies will be made!" Glancing at Wen Ziren, Zhang Junsheng continued: "The "Twilight" series has generated at least $200 million in revenue for Stephanie Mayer, and as long as she is willing to continue writing, we can give 15% of the peripheral income!"

Wen Ziren hesitated: "I will persuade her, but even if she writes extras, she may not choose to continue to cooperate with us!"

“… Why not? Summit Entertainment's profit this year will not be worse than that of the Big Six in Hollywood, and we also have overseas sales channels, which are not worse than the Big Six..."

"Fox wanted to buy us some time ago!"

“… How much do they cost?"

"$1.4 billion!"

"Sick, right? $1.4 billion to buy the pinnacle that owns the Twilight Zone?"

Summit Entertainment is not listed, according to the most normal market value estimate, the annual turnover is more than 500 million, and the market value can be 2.5 billion US dollars!

Bullying Lao Tzu doesn't know how to do it?

In 2007, Summit Entertainment completed a financing of up to $1 billion.

1.4 billion want to merge and acquire a film production company that is well-run and has a complete sales channel?

It's so beautiful to think about!

“… That's how they calculated, you spent 140 million to buy the peak the year before last, ten times the premium..."

"Don't sell them unless they offer 10 billion!"

really wanted to offer 10 billion, Zhang Junsheng didn't say a word, and sold it directly!

And then smash the money on Netflix...

"Impossible, I estimate that 1.8 billion is their bottom line!"

"Rat eyes, no wonder the future generations will be bought by Di Baobao!"

"What?"

"Nothing... Tomorrow we'll have an appointment with Chris Meledandley and we'll talk about the merger, and The Hunger Games is almost ready to start!"

……

The big hit of "New Moon" brought a direct impact not only on Yuehua's stock price, but also on the nerves of the six major ones...

Serials have always been a gold mine!

The series "Twilight", before the release of the movie, ranked 56th on the best-selling list in North America with the highest sales, and in the eyes of many people, it is a vulgar and rotten project, which the six major companies can't watch...

And then it became a gold mine of hundreds of millions of dollars in pure output at the peak.

Not only that, but Pinnacle also has Wen Ziren's horror series in his hands, "The Hunger Games", "Dark Fairy Tale"...

Let's put it this way, relying solely on the box office and series profits, the peak can be squeezed into the top five of the year...

Coupled with the rise of the Eastern Market, and the power that Zhang Junsheng has in the Eastern Market, the rise of the summit has been unstoppable!

Hollywood has always coveted the Chinese market...

The rules for account sharing and batch films are different!

According to the regulations of the mainland, only China Film has the right to import imported films, and China Film and Huaxia have the distribution rights of imported films.

Every year, 40 foreign films can be introduced, of which 20 are blockbusters, these 20 can only be distributed by China Film and Huaxia, and the remaining 20 are batch films.

The two companies focused on sharing the blockbuster films, and did not have the energy to take care of the batch of films, so the two companies handed over the quota of some batches to other companies to assist in promotion, or the private company found China Film and Huaxia to cooperate to obtain the quota after purchasing the copyright.

Nominally, it is distributed by China Film and Huaxia, but in fact, these companies are the real distributors, and China Film and Huaxia only charge a certain management fee and distribution fee.

For Zhang Junsheng, it is really not difficult to get a few quotas!

The two modes of account sharing are different, the account sharing of imported films is only 13%, but the share of batch films is 43%...

Left-hand-for-right-handed business!

They want to do the same, but alas, there are no partners...

Of course, Chris Meledandley also knows that the pinnacle is no longer the independent company that met last year and pooped up a bestseller, and its overseas distribution and sales channels are not weaker than the traditional Big Six!

As for the project, in addition to "Twilight", which is small and big, "Vulgar" released in the first half of the year won a high result of $190 million in North America and $260 million overseas...

"Human Clearance Project", "A Quiet Place", and "Latent", which have been confirmed to be released in the second half of the year, are likely to exceed 20 World Fox at the peak of this year's profit!

More than eight films will be released next year;

The North American distribution chain has been initially formed!

In addition to not being a member of MAPP, Pinnacle actually has the strength of a top club!

……

The result of the negotiation went well, Chris was willing to cooperate, and of course, he was most concerned about the equity he owned and autonomy!

Except for some disagreements on equity, everything else is exactly what Chris thinks.

With the signing of the contract, Illumination Entertainment became a pinnacle subsidiary, providing one or two films per year from 2010 onwards.

Of course, even after being acquired, Illumination Entertainment has always had independent creative rights and controls the core creativity of the film, while Summit Entertainment holds exclusive distribution rights.

It's a win-win deal for both parties, especially for Illumination Entertainment, with the pinnacle of blessings, their films can be seen by more audiences.

After the merger, Chris owns 12% of the shares of the summit, parallel to Wen Ziren, Zhang Junsheng took out 80 million US dollars to buy 20% of the shares of Lighting Entertainment and became the first shareholder of Lighting Entertainment!

"It's finally done!"

After the contract was signed, Zhang Junsheng breathed a sigh of relief, the Minion surname was Zhang...

Do you want to design a Minion in the image of your sister?
