There are many film companies in the United States that are on the verge of bankruptcy, and Henry only sent someone to investigate a little, and he got a long list.

Henry asked professionals to analyze which one had the value to buy, and then asked them to buy it directly.

Within a few days, Henry's men had completed the acquisition. The acquisition target is called UFO Film Company, which is headquartered in Hollywood, and the purchase price is only 8 million dollars!

After completing the acquisition of the film company, Henry immediately reorganized it, recruited better talents to manage the company through a headhunting company, and at the same time changed the name of the film company to Galaxy Films, and Pixar Animation Studio designed the company's logo and title logo! Subsequently, Henry injected $80 million into Galaxy Films, and then invested in "Terminator 2" in the name of the company.

This investment is not just Galaxy Films, but a number of investments together, in addition to Galaxy Films, there are also Warners and Universal Pictures.

The reason for the introduction of the other two companies is entirely because of the needs of later distribution, which can have an advantage in film scheduling!

Eating alone in Hollywood is like going it alone, unless you become a Hollywood giant yourself!

Distribution, publicity, cinemas, etc., it's hard for a small company to get it!

"Terminator" is an excellent series after all, and the reason why other companies are reluctant to invest in "Terminator 2" is because the budget is too big and the risk is too great. But now Galaxy Pictures is willing to make this big deal, and other companies are very willing to follow suit and obtain the distribution rights of the film. However, the film rights are owned by Galaxy Films!

Galaxy Pictures invested $70 million, and Warner and Universal each invested $150 million. That's a total of $100 million, enough for James Cameron to burn money.

Now that the funds are in place and the crew can be formed, "Terminator 2" will start filming a year earlier than in the previous life!

Subsequently, Galaxy Film Company announced the news of the formation of the crew of "Terminator 2" to recruit actors, and the response was overwhelming!

"Terminator 2" invested hundreds of millions of dollars, which was very rare at the time! If anyone can show his face in this movie, it is definitely a strong stroke in his career, that is a kind of qualification!! besides, "Terminator 1" was not popular back then, "Terminator 2" may be even more popular, starring in such a movie, the value will definitely rise!

Henry saw that many movie stars came to the interview, and thought to himself, huge investment is also an attraction! However, when Arnold Schwarzenegger asked for a salary of 10 million, Henry simply wanted to scold his mother! Spicy next door, is it easy to make a movie, you open your mouth and ask for 10 million, James Cameron dared not to spend his own money, but actually agreed, and said that Arnold Schwarzenegger only gave him 10 million to save face, otherwise it would be more.

Hearing this, Henry was also speechless!

"Ten million, I'll give !!," Henry said through gritted teeth, feeling like he wanted to cry without tears!

Then it took a month to recruit the actors, and by the time filming started, it was already March. At first, Henry thought it would be fun to make a movie, but after watching it on the set, it was really boring!

"Schwarzenegger!!Can you act?!I want to be cold and have a touch of emotion, you are stupid like a wood, I have said it several times that you still can't act!!"

"Linda Hamilton!! you are the same, you look like a prostitute ~ woman standing on the street, you are now just acting as a person who speaks and acts strangely and is regarded as a psychopath!!"

“……”

Damn, James Cameron's scolding is too poisonous!

Henry just stood and watched, and felt like he was in a whirlpool. After this battle, he decided that he would never appear in any movie made by James Cameron, and he would not be able to make a cameo!!

Do you want to be scolded by him for the dog's bloody head to be comfortable?!!

If it weren't for the fact that the movies he directed would be very popular, if it weren't for the fact that he wanted to be popular, I'm afraid no one would want to make movies under James Cameron!

The name of "tyrant on the set" really lives up to its name!!

Henry said that if you let others be scolded by James, you will make money quietly!

Life should be like this!

In addition to the special effects of the movie "Terminator 2", industrial light and magic were also invited. George Lucas punched Henry as soon as they met, and said with a smile: "Henry, you are not kind at all, you actually dig into the corner of my industrial light and magic!"

"Hehe......" Henry smiled and said, "Where, you industrial light and magic talents are abundant, digging a few people is like plucking a few hairs, it doesn't matter!"

ILM is poached every year, and Henry is just one of them. Besides, Henry poached people with great moderation and selectivity. Only a dozen or so talents who are not welcomed in Industrial Light & Magic, and are even excluded, but their skills are still good! George Lucas made a lot of money when he bought Pixar, and of course he had to find a place to get back this time!

"It doesn't matter, you let me dig up a dozen of you!"

"Lucas, are you embarrassed to say that the computer animation department you sold me back then has been losing money now, and I was simply killed by you!! I will dig up a few of you, you don't mind so much?" Henry poured bitter water in front of George Lucas, pretending to be pitiful!

George Lucas also knows about Pixar's situation, only burns money, not makes money, and he is very glad that he sold it in the first place, otherwise he would have lost money. Lucas laughed dryly and said, "Hehe, there will be a day when you make money......"

Yes, there will indeed be a day when you will make money! I'm afraid that when the time comes, you will regret it to death!

Henry grinned, and his heart was secretly happy, and he really wanted to see what the expression on George Lucas's face was like that day.

This time, Galaxy Special Effects and Industrial Light and Magic were invited to do special effects for "Terminator 2", in fact, the main force is still Industrial Light and Magic, to put it nicely, Galaxy Special Effects do auxiliary work, to put it mildly, it is called soy sauce. However, Henry single-handedly promoted this cooperation, and it is a rare opportunity, which is a good opportunity for Galaxy Special Effects to steal the master, and at the same time, Bank Special Effects can also see what the world's top film special effects companies are like, and how they should catch up!

After the film company was dealt with, Henry didn't have the leisure to pay attention to the film shooting. All Henry has to do is to get more and better film resources for the film company, such as novel adaptation rights, excellent scripts, comic book adaptation rights, and so on.

Let's occupy the pit first!

Whether to shoot or not is another matter!

So, Henry went into action.

The first target was "The Lord of the Rings", Tolkien's epic fantasy novel, recognized as the originator of modern fantasy! In 1968, United Arts bought the rights to adapt "The Lord of the Rings" from Tolkien for $15,000. In 1976, Hollywood producer Saul Zaynz bought the adaptation rights from United States!

This is the news that Henry sent someone to inquire, so if you want to get the adaptation rights of "The Lord of the Rings", the key person is Saul Zaynz!

Henry sent someone to contact him and said that he wanted to buy the rights to adapt "The Lord of the Rings," but Saul Zaynz actually shouted a sky-high price of "five million dollars." You know, even Hollywood's best scripts can't sell so expensive! Before 1990, million-dollar scripts were almost as rare as dinosaur fossils! Saul Zaynz was simply asking for a sky-high price, and Henry certainly didn't agree.

So, Henry continued to send someone to talk to him.

After talking several times, he finally agreed to sell the adaptation rights of "The Lord of the Rings" to Galaxy Pictures for 2.5 million.

After completing the acquisition of the rights to the adaptation of "The Lord of the Rings", Henry is looking for the next target non-stop. However, Henry's favorite thing is to buy Marvel Comics! I only found out after inquiring that American billionaire Ron Perreman is preparing to buy Marvel for 85 million, damn, how can this ?!!be endured (Happy New Year, I wish you all the best, all your wishes come true!)
