Chapter 983: Lack of Money Again
Oriental DreamWorks is targeting the copyright library of China Film Group, this news is not known to any company in the local entertainment industry, or no one dares to think that a film company that has been established for less than four years wants to swallow an elephant and acquire the copyright library of China Film Group, which has a history of nearly 100 years.
Yang Ming was extremely cautious about this matter, on the one hand, he urgently asked Barber to rush to Huaxia to discuss the acquisition, and on the other hand, he asked Liu Xinsheng to remain quiet and not reveal any rumors within the company.
The entire senior management of Oriental DreamWorks, except for Yang Ming, Liu Xinsheng, and Babo, it is estimated that Sister Zhu may have guessed something.
Because Yang Ming arranged for her to evaluate the contract artists under Huaying, once Huaying Group really goes bankrupt, can it dig up Oriental DreamWorks.
Even so, Sister Zhu didn't expect that Yang Ming would put her mind on the most precious copyright library of Huaying Group.
The most valuable asset of Huaying Group is its huge copyright library accumulated over the past 80 years, and it can be said that it is the copyright library of countless classic works that will achieve the status of Huaying Group as a giant today.
If there is no copyright library, then Huaying Group is at most an empty shelf with a name.
After Barber arrived in China, Yang Ming and the three of them discussed for a whole day to discuss how to make the acquisition.
According to the inside information that Liu Xinsheng inquired from relevant channels in the past two days, it should be true that Huaying Group is in a bankruptcy crisis, once it comes true, if no one comes out to take over, Huaying Group will soon enter the bankruptcy application protection procedure, and at that time, there will inevitably be countless hungry wolves eyeing this tempting cake.
Therefore, in order to prevent any leakage of the news and make other film companies wary of Oriental DreamWorks, Yang Ming did not immediately let Redwood Fund contact the people of Huaying Group this time, just in case, so that other giants could get the news.
This time, Yang Ming found his uncle and asked him to secretly inquire about the current situation of Huaying Group through some connections.
The three of them discussed for a day and set many contingency plans, now it depends on whether anyone comes out to take over and jump into the big pit of Huaying Group.
There is another matter, Yang Ming also has to prepare immediately.
That's raising money.
Once Huaying Group really enters the bankruptcy application protection procedure and wants to acquire the other party's copyright library, there is no strong offer, even if Yang Ming is confident, he does not dare to guarantee that he can make those hungry wolves who are eyeing this cake retreat.
Originally, during the Spring Festival, Yang Ming was still complacent about the financial status of all his industries, and basically all of them were profitable, especially Oriental DreamWorks has become a cash cow in all his industries, and finally he is not worried about money, even if he wants to make a blockbuster, he can start three films at the same time, and there will be no struggle.
But unexpectedly, in less than half a month, he was going to start having a headache about money again.
Of course, there are four or five billion cash in the accounts of Oriental DreamWorks, and with the overseas earnings of "Transformers" arriving from time to time, there is no problem with the accounts exceeding 1 billion cash, which also allows Yang Ming to finally realize his dream in his previous life.
made two blockbusters, one was released in theaters, and the other was taken back to watch by himself.
Who would have thought that only half a month later, there would be such a thing as Huaying Group being about to go bankrupt!
Yang Ming returned home, in the study, and began to figure out where to get money.
Although all of his industries are profitable, most of them are in the expansion stage, and the income generated will continue to be smashed into it.
Especially on the side of Phoenix TV, although it has brought sky-high advertising revenue to the TV station because of ace programs such as "The Voice of China" and "Happy Camp", Phoenix TV has been in a crazy expansion.
Wu Yuanzhi has made a development plan for Phoenix TV this year, and in order to enhance the authority and popularity of the TV station in the news circles, this year the TV station will focus on those news programs in the station.
If you want to report the world's major news and major domestic events as soon as possible, there is no other way than to throw money at it.
The personnel are easy to manage, but those interview equipment are expensive toys, and Wu Yuanzhi can ensure that Phoenix TV will continue to invest in hematopoiesis without Yang Ming continuing to inject capital, which is already a very good thing.
Maybe Yang Ming has no income from dividends, but the valuation of Phoenix TV in the outside world has been rising wildly.
According to the latest evaluation of Phoenix TV by the outside world, the output value of Phoenix TV has exceeded 10 billion yuan, which is an unimaginable thing for a TV station that has been established for less than three years.
Of course, this is also related to the fact that Phoenix TV is the first to make changes in the Internet era and the new media era, and is known as the status of the first network TV station in the new media era.
Computer, mobile phone, handheld computer IPD these three new media mobile channels, Phoenix TV has become the first choice of countless young people to watch the TV station, more than any traditional TV station in the new media share.
It is precisely because of these that Phoenix TV has today's valuation from the outside world.
Yang Ming thought about it seriously, Phoenix TV is far from being drawn blood, at least in three years, there is no need to think about it, of course, with the expansion of Phoenix TV's influence, the wealth he has will also multiply invisibly.
In addition to Phoenix TV, Yang Ming of other industries thought about it, and only the popcorn video website could take out two or three hundred million yuan in cash for the acquisition of the copyright library of Huaying Group.
As for other industries, Yang Ming thought about it or forget it, even if there was some income, it would be tens of millions, which was a drop in the bucket for him, better than nothing.
There is no way, once Huaying Group goes bankrupt, as the most valuable copyright library, it will definitely be regarded as the best debt value, without a sky-high figure, it is absolutely impossible for Oriental DreamWorks to acquire the copyright library under the eyes of the wolves.
According to the estimates of the three of them, Huaying Group has a total foreign debt of more than 5 billion Chinese yuan, but the value of the copyright library should be at least about 3 billion Chinese yuan.
If it takes another two years, Yang Ming believes that he will be able to take out 3 billion Chinese yuan effortlessly, but time waits for no one, and after two years, he has so much money, and the copyright library of Huaying Group has long been famous, and the daylilies are cold.
Continue to mortgage and borrow from the Redwood Fund?
This idea popped up in Yang Ming's mind, but it was quickly forgotten by him, unlike the AMC cinema line that acquired the United States last time, this time Yang Ming aimed at the copyright library of Huaying Group, which has a huge influence in China.
As a well-known international financial venture capital fund company in China, Redwood Fund is inextricably linked with all aspects of China.
He really can't guarantee that the other party will do his best to make suggestions for himself like the last time he acquired a foreign AMC cinema line.
Eggs cannot be put in the same basket.
Yang Ming thought about it, and extinguished the idea of the Redwood Fund.
