Chapter 459 Brilliant

In today's market, the foundation is the world of big productions and sequels, and it has not been seen for a long time that two original films like 2004 set off a huge wave, and everyone fought against each other, and then both made a profit.

In order not to make this huge investment work go down the drain, there is an unwritten agreement between the six giants that they will not launch two A-level blockbusters at the same time within a week, and they determine the schedule of their respective blockbusters through communication and dialogue, so it is rare for two blockbusters to be released at the same time, and at the same time, the scene of the dragon fighting.

This is a wise move, the weekly box office, the peak season exceeds 100 million, and the off-season is only 80 or 90 million, and there is no room for two blockbusters.

As for saying that this super special blockbuster has blocked the release of other movies, this statement is not true, without these audio-visual special effects blockbusters, the audience has no reason to enter the cinema, watching it at home and watching it in the cinema, there is no difference between watching it at home, so why not watch it comfortably at home?

People in this industry want to work and eat, or rely on blockbusters, now every giant film company is a tent combination of two or three blockbusters plus more than a dozen medium-investment works, like New Line, Lionsgate, DreamWorks These film companies all adopt this strategy, as for art films, there are special art theaters, or direct distribution of DVDs, how much can you earn?

Speaking of the release of DVD, the battle between Neflix and BesTV finally divided the winner after half a year of confrontation, BesTV announced the upgrade of the full access service, from free to charged, many people commented in the media: "The winner is his own point!"

Mark's Netflix has won a decisive victory, they have further improved the quality of service, but also upgraded the inventory of DVD types to 27,000 titles, almost all popular movies are in stock, they opened 20 new large-scale distribution centers this year, and the rate of 15 per year in the future, planning to cover North Mi within three years.

The real estate market plummeted, while technology stocks were bullish, and on the back of a series of positive news, Nefy's market value tripled in three months, and by the close of the first week of early June, it had exceeded $5 billion, compared to less than $2 billion when Mark took over.

In this week, the well-known Wall Street wealth magazine "Pengbo" officially published an apology article, admitting that the earlier investment in Ngaifei was a fiasco in Mark's career, and apologized for it, believing that their conclusion was wrong and rash.

The market value of the MM Group exceeded $30 billion, which is not as strong as Time Warner, Viacom, News Corp., and Disney at the level of 60 billion, all of which are ranked fifth after Disney and the fifth largest entertainment media group in the world.

Mark is to fulfill the promise that Netflix is the future of MM, Netflix has an amazing ability to digest, he not only rents CDs, but also sells CDs, as the largest online rental company, every time it places an order with a DVD company, it is more than 10 million US dollars, even if it is a home entertainment company among the six giants, it can not refuse such a large order, so Netflix has also become quite popular, becoming the largest DVD user in North Mi.

The public has always believed that Mark is excellent at investing in films, and nothing else, and that MM's success is the success of the group behind him, and Mark is their spokesperson.

This view has been changed after Mark took charge of the company, to do a good job of the company, it is not about having money, this requires a helmsman with advanced vision and decisive judgment, but also the cooperation of capital and luck, the right time and place and people are indispensable, Mark led the company to beat Blockbuster, which subverted the public's inherent understanding of him, Mark is not only a master of film and television production, but also an investment management master.

The achievements of the company he led are still temporary, and it is more optimistic that the company monopolizes the market, or is the owner of the largest share of the market, as an industry unicorn, he has more and greater room for development, just like the original BesTV, defeating the old video rental group is just the beginning, he will rapidly grow himself, and make money freely in this market, like Microsoft in the software industry, Intel in hardware, it is not difficult to understand that the stock of the company is highly sought after.

Mark was named one of the "World's Top 50 Managers" by Fortune magazine. Mark has not served as CEO, but that doesn't prevent him from winning the title, the article says of him: "With a forward-looking vision, decisive judgment, vigorous execution, a dynamic, passionate manager, he has an excellent personality and can pass on passion to everyone around him, MM was formerly a studio in a garage in the Bedwoolen district, and four years later he became the world's fifth-largest entertainment and media group with a market value of 30 billion." ”

People magazine even included Mark in one of the "Top 10 People of the Year." "The number one person on the Hollywood power list!" Because of his excellent investment vision and management ability, the White House also invited him to participate in the bailout strategy research group, which specifically advises the president and the Federal Reserve.

For these invitations, Mark declined them all, and he always said modestly: "I just make movies, what kind of economy do you know there?"

For reporters to interview him about his experience in investment, he always said modestly and low-key: "Luck!" This simple word, but it has an irreproducible and uncertain meaning, brother has a golden finger, you turtles can't learn it, and brother has a golden finger, never share it with you.

Of course, Mark can also imagine that he talked eloquently in front of a group of brick beasts, saying that now is just the beginning, and the financial tsunami has not yet happened? This crisis is inevitable, the collapse of Lehman Brothers, the nine-life cat, is only the inducement, the government can save one Lehman Brothers, but cannot save thousands of Lehman Brothers waiting to be saved, disasters are destined to happen, and what should come will always come.

If this kind of remarks come out, he will definitely be sprayed to death, and the government does not want to see this unstable remarks, he is destined to be cold, rather than being a person inside and out, thankless, it is better not to wade into this troubled water, with his fame and status today, what is the lack of that little false name?

So Mark declined all invitations and flattery, during his stay in Chicago he accepted the invitation of the mayor of Chicago and the governor of Illinois, thanked them for their great assistance, and refused all other invitations, this weekend is his private parent-child time, except for spending time with his family, will not engage in or participate in any work and activities, especially now to work for Warner, he is pinching time to work, pinching time to get off work, and will never work overtime to finish the day's work and then leave work.

When he arrived at Zhou Wei, he asked the car to refuel, wait for work, immediately rushed to the car, rushed to the airport, and took a short-distance domestic flight back to Los Angeles, if the light was green all the way, he could rush home at twenty o'clock in the evening, Giselle and Martin waited, just as the family had a meal.

Now that he has finally paid off his debts and his business is getting bigger, Mark has decided to buy a private jet to make it easier to get around.

Mark is interested in the Gulfstream private jet, since the first flight to the sky, the Gulfstream V aircraft has gathered a lot of aviation records in his body, its excellent performance makes it greatly surpass other similar commercial aircraft, today, in service more than 100 similar aircraft, the Gulfstream V aircraft is recognized as the world's safest, most practical and most comfortable commercial aircraft.

Mark and Giselle are eyeing the Gulfstream G550, which received a flight license from the Federal Aviation Administration in 2003 and was officially released to the public in 2004.

Originally named the Gulfstream V-SP, it was introduced in 2003 with improvements in performance, such as reduced air resistance and an increased range of 12,500 km, the longest range in its class.

Mark and his wife were impressed, because they often fly this kind of plane, Ellison's family has one, and it is the first model of this model, which is extremely luxuriously decorated, with a bar and swimming pool, etc., and the last time "Iron Man" was filmed, it was this one to shoot.

Mark and they bought two planes in the name of the family fund in one go, these planes are custom-made, can be renovated according to the owner's liking, one of these two will be delivered immediately, this is because a rich man after booking the plane encountered the stock market crash and went bankrupt, unable to pay the balance to renew the contract, only Gulfstream Company judged that it was in default and took it out for auction.

Those who can afford to buy private jets are either rich or expensive, they have extremely high requirements for decoration and design, each one is unique, in order to show their personality and taste, not to mention that his owner is bankrupt and broke the contract, this kind of finished product is rarely wanted, very disliked, even if it is auctioned at the original price of seven percent, no one cares, and is in a hurry to use the plane for the mark to pick up cheap.

Mark does not have much requirements for the decoration of the plane, just for the convenience of travel, there are offices, bars, bedrooms, all kinds of entertainment facilities, daily necessities, and more than ten seats, which can be used by bodyguards and accompanying staff, which can basically meet his needs, he is a not good fancy person, and he will not be like Larry, so sassy about making a small bathtub and stage in his own plane.

After Dorgisel discussed, they bought this one, and with a private jet, they could spend their holidays anywhere in the country on the weekend, and Mark was filming in Chicago, and if he didn't care about the cost, it would not be a problem to go back and forth that day.

The other one was made to order according to the preferences of Mr. and Mrs. David, and it was not delivered until a year later, because he designed the decoration according to the owner's preferences, so as to make the experience 100% perfect, and each one is unique.
