"Welcome." Zhang Fan, who was dressed in a straight dress, stretched out his hand to Spielberg, who walked into the hall, "Thank you for being here today." ”

"Mr. Zhang's invitation must come." Spielberg, who was already full of gray hair, was still red, and when he shook hands with Zhang Fan, he said with a smile, "I hope there will be opportunities for cooperation in the future." ”

"No problem." Zhang Fan smiled and thought about whether Jurassic Park, which has been in the past for many years, can make a sequel?

There are a lot of guests coming tonight, and Zhang Fan is the host, so he naturally wants to welcome those heavyweight guests. Representatives of several major companies, such as Spielberg or George Lucas. And those actors are entertained by Li Ruhui.

After becoming the boss of Disney, Li Ruhui persuaded Zhang Fan to change his mood and appear in front of the public with the mentality of a real boss.

Among these guests, Zhang Fan and George Lucas simply said hello, but they were very enthusiastic about the truck driver. Because he's already heard about the trouble in the new film of the truck driver.

Since the Titanic, the trucker has not had a new film work for many years. Although he also filmed the Black Angel of the Last Days and the return to the Bismarck battleship. But one is a TV series and the other is a documentary. The glory and honor brought by the Titanic have gradually dissipated in the long river of time.

A few years ago, the truck driver announced that he would return to the world and make a super-budget movie. This film invested by Twentieth Century Fox is the famous Avatar!

When filming Avatar, the truck driver continued his usual habit of procrastinating and constantly adding production costs. If it was just after filming Titanic, Twentieth Century Fox might have been patient. But now that all these years have passed, their patience with truck drivers is running out.

When the truckers again asked for additional investment and postponed the release of the movie, Twentieth Century Fox went berserk, and the conflict with the truckers was very intense. In this case, Zhang Fan wanted to see if he had a chance to reach in and get a handful.

Of course, Zhang Fan knew very well that he could not really snatch the film from Twentieth Century Fox. After all, Twentieth Century Fox has invested a lot of money and energy, and there is still time. At this time, they said that it was impossible to give up anything.

All Zhang Fan wants is to plug in and then share some benefits. After all, this movie will be a big hit, taking away more than ten or two billion box office around the world. If you have the opportunity to intervene now, of course, you can't let it go.

The galas are no different from those that are often held in Hollywood. All the arrangements and hospitality are all in charge of the professional company invited by Li Ruhui. Flown in from all over the world, such as lobster, Japanese beef, French wine, Italian pasta, and Spanish lamb chops.

The cost of food and drinks alone for such a party can be millions of dollars, not counting the expenses on labor services, various entertainments, etc.

Li Ruhui told Zhang Fan that this is the case in Hollywood. Now that you've become an important part of Hollywood, it's up to you to follow the path here. At least until you don't have the strength to completely influence all of this.

Zhang Fan and a brightly dressed men and women laughed and talked under the dazzling crystal lamp with wine glasses, and the whole scene looked like a movie.

It's just that Zhang Fan himself doesn't like this kind of thing. This may have something to do with the fact that he was born at the bottom and has never received this kind of relevant elite education. At least now he is not used to this life.

Zhang Fan wants to change something, but he needs to be stronger now.

Smiling faces flashed in front of Zhang Fan, and no one would make any inappropriate expressions or say anything that shouldn't be said in front of him. Those who can enter here are the human spirits among the human spirits, and each one is smarter than the other. Now Zhang Fan's identity is a real tycoon in Hollywood, who will offend him?

Looking at these people who are extremely flattering to him now, it is really difficult for Zhang Fan to integrate them with the arrogant faces when he first came to Hollywood. It's all a person, why can there be such a completely different expression on the face?

After sighing, Zhang Fan continued his own affairs. Talking to these people is just a waste of time. Handed over to Li Ruhui to stay in the hall to deal with these people, Zhang Fan walked towards the lounge upstairs. George Lucas was already there waiting for him at this time.

"George, thank you for coming over today." After entering the lounge, Zhang Fan shook George Lucas's hand hard.

When he sent an invitation to George Lucas before, Zhang Fan had already hinted at him. The meeting was for an interview about the acquisition of George Lucasfilm.

If George Lucas didn't have any intention of selling the film company he established to Zhang Fan, he wouldn't have come over today. And since he came, it means that things are discussed.

For Zhang Fan, winning Lucasfilm can be regarded as a complete completion of the layout in Hollywood.

"Zhang. I know what you think. After the greeting sat down, George Lucas did not ramble and gossip, but directly changed the topic to the topic: "You are interested in Lucasfilm, if it was before, I would not consider selling Lucasfilm to you." But now it's different, now that you own Disney, you're at the top of Hollywood. You've got what it takes to make Lucasfilm even better. ”

"I've worked hard for Lucasfilm all my life." George Lucas's expression was a little emotional: "I've worked hard for decades, but I can only do it to this extent." Hollywood's big names won't allow other competitors to come out. The Dream Factory of the year is the best example of this. I'm old and don't have time to make my Lucasfilm better, so I want to be able to give it to someone or a company with enough platform and strength. This is the only way to take Lucasfilm to the next level. ”

"Don't worry." Zhang Fan's expression became serious: "I will never let Lucasfilm decline." ”

On the surface, the two look very much like like-minded friends discussing their goals in life. Older people encourage young people to develop their own careers better. It's completely a TV series shot.

In reality, however, these are just polite words. Whether it is Zhang Fan or George Lucas, what they say is very good, all of them are ideals, the future or something. But in fact, they all know that these are all for the deal. It's just for your own reputation.

As a businessman, I like money very much, but there will never be anyone who says that I just like money, and everything is easy to say when the money is in place. They all value their reputation, which in many cases translates into direct benefits.

has been messing around in the big dye vat of shopping malls and Hollywood for so long, and Zhang Fan is no longer the little white. After the polite greetings ended with a dialogue as beautiful and gorgeous as movie lines, Zhang Fan went directly to the big dish.

"I'm ready to pay $8 billion to buy all the assets of George Lucasfilm." Zhang Fan broke out a price that made George Lucas's eyelids twitch slightly.

Lucasfilm isn't worth that much money, even though it has the rights to those classics and ILM in hand. But its actual value is not so much. That's eight billion dollars!

Zhang Fan's heart is very clear, don't look at the two before, they seem to be friends for the New Year, and they are optimistic about each other. It's a very touching scene. But if he couldn't offer a price high enough that George Lucas couldn't refuse. Then this old man will never sell his film company to Zhang Fan!

This is the truth, this is the real connotation.

Zhang Fan doesn't like the grinding and negotiation that you go back and forth, and he doesn't like this matter being leaked out because of the negotiation. This is almost a given, as long as the two sides enter the substantive negotiation stage, the news will definitely be spread when the bargain is made. At that time, several other film giant companies will definitely not sit idly by, and watch Zhang Fan expand his strength again.

At that time, no matter if someone directly intervenes with themselves to compete for Lucasfilm. Or malicious competition, desperately raising the price and bleeding himself are things he doesn't want to see.

Therefore, Zhang Fan directly and quickly quoted a price that George Lucas had no way to refuse. And it is necessary to lock this matter completely in a certainty.

"This is my sincerity." Of course, Zhang Fan will not say that it is this price, and if he does not agree, he will pull it. He spoke to conform to the identities of both parties and save face for each other" This is also the true value of George Lucasfilm. ”

Now that the ball has been kicked to George Lucas, Zhang Fan has already made his final offer. It's up to him if he disagrees.

George Lucas felt a headache. He originally wanted to release the news and find several other giant companies to enter into negotiations to raise the price. But Zhang Fan is now a direct general.

This price is definitely a lot higher than the actual price of George Lucasfilm. In terms of the acquisition offer, it is already very sincere. If you want to raise the price again, you will be disrespectful. And Zhang Fan also made it very clear that this is the final offer, and if you don't accept it, forget it. But if George Lucas does not reach this price when he sells his film company in the future, it will be tantamount to giving Zhang Fan an excuse to trouble him.

I'll pay such a high price to buy your company, and if you don't want to, forget it. But now you're selling it to someone else for a lower price than that? What do you mean? Look down on me or are you playing with me?

If Zhang Fan was just an ordinary actor or director, George Lucas wouldn't care about him at all. But Zhang Fan now holds Disney in his hands, Hollywood's top film company! offended Zhang Fan and gave him the truth, and when the time came, he would burst out with all his strength and start suppressing, and George Lucas would have no way to resist. And it's not easy for others to stand up for him. After all, it was he who played Zhang Fan in front, and Zhang Fan's revenge was also a matter of course.

In an instant, George Lucas began to scratch his hair.
