In this signing, both parties felt that they had taken a big advantage, and the other party was stupid X, so they both wanted to quietly enter the village, and those who shot did not want to complete the signing, so both parties were enthusiastic and called brothers.

As for the repurchase agreement of the cheating father, Yahoo believes that this protects their interests to the greatest extent, and immediately buys back the shares of Yali as soon as they see the news, and they only invested one billion dollars in 2005, and now, it is in exchange for something with a market value of nearly four billion dollars, which can be called a big victory.

And Mark laughed secretly, the repurchase agreement will make these greedy guys, they can't find a grave if they want to cry, the publishing group is in decline, but the value is still there, put it in the hands of Yahoo for a few years, and then redeem it, and when he completes the tear with Yali Ma Yun and re-listed, these guys want to die.

So everyone smoked cigars, drank champagne and waited for the lawyer to draft the contract, and they talked about business and private affairs, and invited each other to family dinners, like old friends for more than ten years.

The professional quality of the lawyers is not covered, they quickly drafted the contract, both parties signed after confirming that it was correct, Mark and Barry signed on behalf of Time Warner Group, and Yang Zhiyuan and Ferro signed on behalf of Yahoo Group, which had to be taken back to stamp the company's big seal and signed by the boards of directors of both parties before it could take effect.

As for reporting to the Securities Regulatory Commission and relevant departments, the receipt of property is the responsibility of a professional team, and Yahoo is relatively simple, as long as the transfer of Yaribaba's equity is completed, because Yaribaba is a listed company in Xiangjiang, they must report to the Hong Kong Stock Exchange, and they must also report to the board of directors, management, and shareholders of Alibaba.

Time Warner is relatively complicated, the Times Publishing Group is large and complex, with many businesses and many employees, Time Warner made a decision to divest and plan and prepare for the packaging and sale of Times Publishing Group, but the complex personnel and financial relationships are not something that can be sorted out at once, but these things are responsible for a professional team, and Mark does not need to worry about it.

This Mark will not devote himself to this kind of miscellaneous and troublesome things, and besides, he doesn't understand, this is to receive and liquidate the property, but it is a very professional thing, Mark will not toss himself in order to make himself appear versatile, and now he is being annoyed by Kevin? Mark shot 500 million projects in one go, and actually pumped money to speculate in stocks, which made Kevin very angry, and came directly to Mark's office to slap the table and scold his mother.

With the global success of "Ha 6", this ticket can bring more than one billion revenue (box office + peripherals) to Warner, which Kevin is full of confidence and anyone dares to scold.

Mark was not in a hurry, personally poured half a glass of wine for Kevin, and said: "Kevin, as the president of Warner Bros., you are considered a high-level executive, you must have a view of the overall situation, and you must emerge from the overall interests of the group. ”

Kevin doesn't eat this set, the seven major parts of the group, each with its own board of directors and CEO, whoever makes more money, who has the confidence, speaks loudly.

Mark said: "Kevin, don't panic, with our friendship, can I make you suffer? What am I born for, and I can't treat the film department badly! When I debuted, I received a lot of care from Warner Bros., we are our own people, and now we will not stab our own people if we say anything." ”

Kevin wanted to ask, Times Publishing Group is an outsider raised by his mother, this knife stabbed, three knives and six holes, the knife pierced the heart, he said: "You cancel these plans, our Warner Bros. will have no work to do next year." ”

Mark said: "Kevin, aren't I working hard for Warner Bros.? How to maintain market share in the case of reduced production, this is a technical job, very hurtful, isn't this an economic crisis? The landlord's family has no surplus grain! This reduction in production is imperative, and I hope the people below will understand." ”

Kevin is angry, not only to reduce production, but also to maintain the same market share, can this work still be done?

Mark said, "I'm very lucky! I've found a way, Kevin, you don't know how expensive firewood, rice, oil, and salt are." ”

Kevin was overjoyed, and the production cut still maintained market share, which is a rebellious thing, and only Mark dared to say such a thing in Hollywood. "I'm listening." ”

My plan is to take the boutique route, the projects that will be launched this year and next year are the "Hunger Games" series, the "Hobbit" series, and I also plan to restart the Superman series, the new project is called "Man of Steel", and at the same time will shoot "The Flash", "Green Arrow", "Aquaman", "Steel Bone", "Harley Quinn", "Death Shooter" and other small and medium-cost personal films, and finally a "Superman vs. Batman" , and then engage in a Justice League to create a cinematic universe that belongs to DC. ”

Looking at the dancing Mark, Kevin just wants to scold people, this is the most imaginative and talented producer in Hollywood? It's not enough for him to toss the Marvel Universe, the Star Wars Universe, and the Transformers Universe in MM? He also tosses and tosses a DC Universe in Warner, and he has no originality and imagination at all, he can only create commercial popcorn movies on the assembly line, and so on! Isn't this what Hollywood dreams of in an assembly-line commercial popcorn movie?

It's a big piece of fat, Kevin swallowed, it's a great idea, why didn't I think of it? Making these movies with a certain reputation and fan base is far better than taking the risk of starting a new one, he said, "That's it?" Of course he couldn't be satisfied with this, he was cut five projects by Mark, and he had to make up for it.

Mark said: "We can find a way in the "Harry Potter" series, this series, the box office alone can bring Warner Bros. a single $500 million revenue, but unfortunately, he still has one more to finish, how a pity is this?"

Kevin felt the same way, he went to persuade Rowling to let her pour more water and write more episodes, but Rowling refused, stating that "Harry Potter Writes Deathly Hallows" was the last episode, and seeing that this gold mine was about to dry up, his heart was like a knife!

Mark said: "I found a problem, Ha 7 because there is too much content to tell, Gen Tai can't finish the story, and dividing it into two parts can better interpret the content of the book, Ha VI Dumbledore's funeral was deleted and hit me, I will not allow this situation to happen again." ”

Kevin immediately agreed: "Yes, this is so exciting, only one will cut a lot of wonderful links, in order to be more authentic Cheng Cheng shows the perfect plot in the original book, it is completely necessary to make two parts, which can allow the audience to buy one more ticket, and Warner will continue to be brilliant and make a lot of money." ”

Mark said: "As the book of "Harry Potter" is getting thicker and thicker, the deletion of the plot in the movie seems to have become inevitable, in order to ensure that "Harry Potter and the Dead Hall" will not happen again, the movie will be divided into two episodes, which is very necessary, I have asked the producer David Heyman to talk to Rowling, one sells two films, this is a happy ending, she has no need to get along with money, and we do this, at least more than one billion, one stone, this is a win-win ending!"

Kevin was plucked by Mark, and felt that his eyes were bright, and he suddenly became enlightened, he felt that this matter was promising, this move would create an extra super-hit movie for Warner, this is a really good idea, far more reliable than what the DC Cinematic Universe, this annual Harry Potter will set off a trend, bringing rolling money to Warner, this is their most stable income, and he is also panicking because this gold mine is about to dry up, and now there is this idea, it is really raining in time!

Kevin was overjoyed, Mark is Mark, you see how people's heads grow, can come up with so many simple and practical good ways to make money without losing money? No wonder the group of people on the board of directors were subdued by him, he said: "I will go and lobby other people to make this happen." After saying that, he left happily, he is a person with strong work ability, otherwise he would not be the president of Warner Bros., and he immediately went to implement this matter.

"Ha 6" is still selling well, and there is a rumor in Hollywood that "Ha 7" will be filmed in two episodes, according to the "Los Angeles Times", producer David Heyman has replied positively to this rumor, and the two episodes are not to make money, but to better tell the story

The decision to divide "Harry Potter and the Dead Hall" into two episodes must have something to do with money, "Harry Potter" can bring Warners at least $500 million in total box office revenue per episode, and one more episode means that the fun of counting money will be doubled. ”

David complained that in previous works, they were able to remove the Quidditch match in the fifth book, "Order of the Phoenix", or the minor episode about Hermione, but the seventh part was full of bright spots, making it impossible to abandon any plots. Eventually, he presented his idea to the author, Rowling, and she approved it, which freed him.

Potter himself was also in favor of the episode, and Harry Potter himself Daniel Radcliffe was delighted with the decision, emphasizing that it wasn't just about getting paid more.

He said that splitting the seventh book into two parts was the only way to avoid cutting out most of the book's highlights. In the past few works, there will be more minor plots that can be easily cut, although the deletion work is also very uncomfortable for some "Harry Potter" fans, but the finale does not have any subplots, it is a wonderful and very exciting story.

David Yates, who won the Best Director award for Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix, has revealed that he will be at the helm of the last Harry Potter film, Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows, and will personally close the biggest sequel.
