After returning to Los Angeles, Han Xuan took them to SOS supermarket for big purchases. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

I went to the Maldives once the previous winter and knew how short supplies were there.

Things like sunscreen and snacks are essential for living in the Maldives for a long time, and medicines are also necessary to buy, and when they are sent to a place where there is a hospital, they may have already braided.

Prepare a hat and summer dress for Anya, and accompany Isabelle and Ramirez to buy some essential supplies.

went to the set of "Fast and Furious" at night, and the scenes of Pattinson, the son of the deputy mayor of London, were all over, and he still stayed on the set to do chores, not knowing whether the car rental shop in London would still be open.

The film will not be completed for about a month, and the director is very demanding about the film, and he doesn't mind wasting film anyway, and wants to make a really good movie in order to take the opportunity to become famous.

Rest the night in Beverly Hills.

The next day was a sunny day, with no clouds in sight and a pale blue sky.

The leaves of palm trees on the roadside waft in the wind, and the train pulls wagons full of fresh fruit north.

At more than eight o'clock in the morning, Han Xuan's grandmother had just returned home from the Maldives, but Han Xuan was gone, and they didn't meet by accident.

On the way, I found an animal clinic and helped Fat Ding buy some airsickness medicine for them to keep in reserve, and the doctor originally planned to sell a few pills to Han Xuan, but when he heard that there was a Kodiak Island brown bear, he thought about it and changed it to a large bottle......

Arriving at the VIP lounge at Los Angeles International Airport, customs officers came to help Anya and Ramirez apply for passports, and the documents were ready, just a photo was needed.

Han Xuan was pleased to find that the customs had been able to use computers to query the identity data of the two people, which means that it is not far from the full electronicization of population information, and then the electronic trade payment tool can officially appear on the stage.

After eating some noodles, before boarding the plane, he received a call from Mr. Alan Hassenfield, CEO of Hasbro, Han Xuan answered, "Good morning, Alan."

I'm on my way to vacation, is the company's last year's earnings report out?"

"Yes, I handed the report to the head office.

From the release of Marvel's hero toys in the second half of the year, coupled with the sale of Harry Potter props for Halloween, the performance continued to grow.

You could have received more than $79 million in dividends last year, and I'll put that money back into the company.

But I don't want to talk about it, you asked me to collect the copyrights of well-known anime characters before, and I found some information during this time, so I want to tell you.

If it bothers you, then let's talk about it when we have time, don't worry.

Have a nice holiday, Han. ”

Since Han Xuan took control of Hasbro, he has not given up the acquisition of scattered shares, kicked out most of the minority shareholders, and now he has 80.12% of the total shares of Hasbro.

The remaining shares, scattered among more than 30 minority shareholders, including Halsenfeld, are optimistic about the company's prospects and are reluctant to sell.

The dividends can be distributed to more than 79 million US dollars, which means that the net profit of Hasbro last year has nearly exceeded 100 million US dollars, an increase of about 22% compared with 1993, and the market value will also rise.

Han Xuan walked to the floor-to-ceiling window, looked at the two Gulfstream planes that had started, and said to Halsenfeld: "No, no, no, it's okay.

I haven't gotten on the plane yet, they're being overhauled, you name it. ”

"Okay, so by surveying people's favorite cartoon characters, I picked three that I would like to sell.

First up is Garfield.

From 1978 to the present, this manga has been published one per day and has a wide readership, and was made into an anime in 1982.

The rights to the comics are held by United Comics in the United States and PAWS, which was established by the founder of Garfield Comics.

The rights to the perimeter board belonged to PAWS, and the animation and film rights were sold at the time, and now they belong to someone else.

I wanted to acquire the rights other than the distribution rights of the comics, and the offer I received was $16 million. ”

"You can promise this, you can talk to PAWS and buy it a little cheaper, and what?" Han Xuan asked.

"The other is the copyright of "Cat and Mouse" in the hands of MGM Pictures.

With the exception of film and animation distribution rights, which are owned by Time Warner, MGM Pictures is the owner.

MGM's board of directors was willing to sell, but the price was relatively high, at least $55 million.

The copyright to a series of cartoon characters for "Bugs Bunny" was in the hands of Time Warner, and the license to Mattel did not expire until 1997, and they were willing to sell the full rights to us for 110 million dollars.

If you add the film and animation distribution rights of "Cat and Mouse", the total is 170 million US dollars. ”

Rao is Han Xuan was mentally prepared, and he was also dizzy when he heard this price.

Garfield is fine, but "Cat and Mouse" plus "Bugs Bunny" is just a copyright, and it is worth nearly four Serralvo islands.

The island is dead and can't make much money, while these veteran cartoon stars can.

In the 90s, cats and mice, as well as Bugs Bunny and Piggy, were a little outdated compared to Mickey Mouse, Donald Duck, and Winnie the Pooh, who were about the same age as them.

It has been several years since there has been a great new release, and they are all eating the old books of the year, which are about to be forgotten by this generation of children.

This price does not include the copyright of previously released works, but only buys the future distribution rights and peripheral copyrights.

At the end of 1994, after tasting the sweetness of Pokemon such as Pikachu, Han Xuan instructed Hasenfield to collect information about these cartoon characters.

Stock up on usable materials for the playground and grandpa's studio, Hasbro, Blizzard games, and more.

It costs almost $200 million to buy Garfield, Cat and Mouse, and Bugs Bunny, and Han Xuan is in a situation of lack of money.

The previous money was useful, and he used it up to buy things and invest everywhere.

But now I want to buy them.

Hasbro has enough spare funds to draw up about $50 million.

In the brain to search for places where you can squeeze cash, most of the companies under it are in a state of eating money, such as Starbucks, Han's Automobile, Hope Technology, etc., don't inject funds upside down, even if it's a good thing.

Thinking about it, only the Snow Mountain Printing House is most likely to keep the money earned from "Pirate Legends" and "Resident Evil" in the company unused.

The manuscript fee for the second and third Harry Potter releases by Random House has not yet been paid...... (To be continued.) )
