"Just these two conditions, otherwise, Lee, even if you buy Marvel, we will leave Marvel. Pen, Fun, Pavilion www.biquge.info" said Stan Lee.

There are two conditions, one is that Li Mo must not interfere with Marvel's management and sales after the acquisition, and the other is that Io Studios must be merged into Marvel and become a subsidiary of Marvel.

Li Mo was happy.

The old man is a great hero of Marvel, and comic book characters such as "Fantastic Four", "Spider-Man", "Iron Man", "Thor", and "Hulk" were created with the assistance of his partner cartoonist Jack Kirby, and he is also the publisher and chairman of Marvel Comics.

So some people call him the soul of Marvel.

Even if Marvel went bankrupt and reorganized in 98 and the old man left Marvel, his influence on Marvel was still everywhere.

But......!

Marvel has come to that point, and it has a lot to do with the stubbornness of this old man.

He did have creative talent, but not the talent to run the company, so he left the company to start his own business, and despite the fact that he had enough connections and funds, the business failed.

First, it is impossible for Li Mo to agree.

Old man, you are still the same as Yokoi Junhei, go and be in charge of creation, management and sales, you have to let go as soon as possible.

Not only let go, once Li Mo's acquisition is successful, but also the asset restructuring of Marvel must be carried out, otherwise Marvel's black hole will not even be able to fill in Io Studios.

As for Article 2......

Li Mo was even more hehe.

IoStudio is mainly responsible for maximizing the benefits of Li Mo's various intellectual property rights in culture and entertainment.

First of all, the game part, which of Li Mo's game intellectual property rights were not handed over to Yibao, but to Io's studio, and every time Yibao released a game that belonged to Li Mo's "creation" or "conception", it had to share some benefits to Io's studio. Despite the small share and the accumulation of sand into a tower, these games went to the market one by one, and as the sales increased, they accumulated a lot.

Io Studios also worked with Yibao to adapt some games into comics, and there are not many manga published now, only three or four manga such as Final Fantasy, but it is also a profit.

In the future, some games will be brought to the big screen, as well as some other derivative income.

That's the smallest part of the benefits right now.

Then there are several novels by Li Mo.

Although there are only a few, this part of the income is not small, not to mention the adaptation rights of movies, games, anime, etc., as well as some derivatives, even if these novels themselves have sold hundreds of millions of copies.

As for the animations provided by Li Mo, at the moment Io Studio and Rong Dirk have teamed up to launch the beginning of more than a dozen animations, but because of the contracts signed with various film companies, no comic books have been released except for "The Simpsons", which has been brought to television. So it seems that the benefits are not large, but the benefits of Velvet Deck are also immeasurable.

But the value of this part has not yet been recognized.

Once these animated characters are brought to the big screen, they will almost be equivalent to most of Marvel in the future!

Finally, there is the entertainment part, the income from these movies planned by Li Mo has also been transferred to the name of Io Studio, the film copyright is secondary, and there is a big head behind the key, box office dividends.

In addition to box office dividends, there are other benefits.

In addition, the variety shows that Li Mo handed over to the five major TV stations, although they were free for them to use, but these copyrights were also assigned to the name of Io Studio, and in the future, it was only an authorization, which could get at least tens of millions a year, and most of them could get hundreds of millions of dollars in income.

In addition to these four major benefits, where else is Japan, Li Mo also plagiarized some ideas, and some investments, which will also bring some benefits to Io Studio in the future. Of course, compared with the above four major benefits, which side of Japan has less benefits.

Li Mo bought Marvel for $300 million, but last year, Hengfeng valued Io Studios at $500 million just as a mortgage.

This was last year, and this year, it is still in Li Mo's hands......

What will it be worth?

If Li Mo promises, he will continue to provide various ideas to Iostudio in the future, and carefully plan every movie.

Then there will be companies that spend billions of dollars to buy Io Studios.

On the surface, IoStudio is mainly to expand Li Mo's ideas, or improve each idea.

The distribution channel is in conjunction with Yibao, Velvet Deck, Bantam and various film companies.

As a result, there are not many people hired and the company is not large.

But at the moment, can Marvel's value be compared to Io Studios?

The old man dares to dream.

Scheufman laughed too.

Marvel's fixed assets are far superior to Io Studios, but these fixed assets are not fixed assets in the eyes of the boss. It's cumbersome, Li Mo and Xie Fuman took the information collected by Hao Lick and Xie Fuman to discuss this merger, Li Mo said that most of the assets must be packaged and sold, even if it is cheaper. Because there is a nasty organization in the United States, called the union, once the assets are reorganized and the workers are laid off, if it is not handled well, it will be very troublesome, and it is better to reorganize it and sell it at the price of cabbage. Some departments or other assets that need to be retained will be restructured.

That is, after the merger and acquisition is successful, these assets have little value in Li Mo's eyes, but Li Mo must come up with 300 million US dollars in real money and repay nearly 200 million US dollars in debts for Marvel.

How dare Stan Lee put forward these two unreasonable conditions?

But not Stan Lee's dream.

In his eyes, Marvel is equivalent to his child, one is that he doesn't want outsiders to interfere, and the other is afraid that outsiders will completely corrupt it.

But in fact, this is a company, not a child, no matter how much money I have in my hand, why should I transfer the child to you, or put it next to you to educate?

The development of Marvel also proved the incompetence of the old man in the management level, after the bankruptcy reorganization, the bankruptcy committee let him go down, and soon with the development of new technologies, as well as the adjustment of business policies, Marvel quickly got on the right track.

Of course, he regards Marvel as his own child, and his own child must be taller, so Io Studio can only become a subsidiary of Marvel, and it just so happens that Io Studio's distribution channels and management capabilities can make up for Marvel's shortcomings.

He thinks about good things, but neither Li Mo nor Xie Fuman can ignore the old man's influence in Marvel.

The old man put forward these two requirements, which means that there is no need to talk about it.

Li Mo thought for a while and said: "Pereman, Lee, in this way, we will acquire it in another way, I will not acquire Marvel, but I will buy all the copyrights of Marvel's Spider-Man, Iron Man, Captain America, Thor, Hulk, Wolverine, Fantastic Four, Ant-Man, X-Men, Guardians of the Galaxy, Blade, Deadpool, and Avengers at a high price." ”

If Li Mo takes down these copyrights, it is equivalent to taking half of Marvel's intellectual property rights, and in the future, it is equivalent to taking out ninety percent of the essence.

Stan Lee was anxious and yelled, "Lee, I won't agree. ”

Li Mo gave him a blank look, if Li Mo acquires Marvel, the old man will give him a headache, Li Mo will not merge or not, whether you agree or not!

Of course, it will cost a lot of money to take these intellectual property rights together.

The problem is that some copyrights have already been sold by Marvel, and Li Mo has to repeat one thing that Marvel wants to do in advance and send someone to take back some copyrights.

Even if it is a slightly more important supporting role, it must be withdrawn, otherwise there will be copyright disputes in the future.

After the acquisition, Li Mo will also hire some competent employees and cartoonists to continue to distribute related comics, and continue to improve this series of comics, so that ten years later, these big IPs will still be deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, so that after they are put on the big screen, there will be box office guarantees.

However, there are also many benefits, first of all, there is no need to carry the mess of Marvel forward, and Io Studios can continue to maintain a profit rate every year.

Now the cost of acquiring these intellectual property rights is relatively small.

Not going straight into Marvel, although it will require hiring some staff, it will not make Io Studios bloated.

"Streamlining the government" and traveling lightly is an important measure for Io Studio's profitability......

Pereman was also embarrassed.

If it weren't for Li Mo's acquisition, he was preparing to make Marvel go public and make money. Once these intellectual rights are sold together, how will Marvel go public?

"Mr. Pereman, if I wanted to, I would still be willing to pay $300 million for this acquisition," Limer said. ”

Pereman swallowed, with Marvel's situation, even if it goes public, it may not be able to circle 300 million US dollars.

But another thought also popped up in his mind, is it worthless that Marvel's remaining assets are worth nothing other than these copyrights?

Medium also!

Take away these essences, and the remaining copyrights of Marvel may have some use value, but the rest is mostly dross. As for assets other than intellectual property, they are even more worthless.

"Lee, isn't there any other way to acquire, such as buying half of the copyrights you mentioned......

"No, Mr. Pereman, I'm called the best partner by many in California, and you ask yourself, is this worth me just? Of course, maybe I'll use these copyrights in the future, but in your hands, can I make good use of them? 300 million dollars, how much do you have to do? And with the Marvel staff still around, you can create more comic book characters. ”

"We think about it. ”

"Okay. ”

Pereman and a few people left, and Shefman said: "Boss, it's not worth it to just buy some copyrights and spend so much money." ”

"Jeffman, you United States have begun to use troops in the Middle East, which also announces that your United States has begun to dominate the world, this hegemony is not necessarily a good thing, it may drag the United States into endless wars, but it is not necessarily a bad thing, because it is strong, it will bring about all kinds of impact. It's like your fried chicken, Coca-Cola, hamburgers and other junk foods in the United States, but in China, many people regard it as high-end food. It will also add a lot of overseas box office to Hollywood...... With the box office of overseas countries and regions, the risk is shared, which also means that there will be more and more Hollywood big-budget movies in the future. I've talked about substitution before, and the comic industry seems to be entering a dead winter right now, but its influence among various audiences should not be underestimated. Dare to make big-budget movies, there is also a lot of substitution, and the rapid development of technology, what impact do you say these comic intellectual property rights will have in the future?"

The intellectual property of just one Spider-Man is far more than $300 million in the future.

Not only the box office, but also all the intellectual property rights, in the future, there will be a lot of returns on TV, advertising, derivatives, animation, comics, and games.

Therefore, Li Mo is more sympathetic to the United States in this regard.

Later, many people complained that China did not have any cultural and entertainment creativity, and it was necessary to eat when thinking about creativity.

If you don't protect all kinds of intellectual property rights, and the author has no income, why should you hollow out your head and think about all kinds of creations?

Still, Li Mo handed it over to Xie Fuman, and he went to San Francisco.

"Brother, did you really look at that little princess?" Le Yijuan said.

You don't need Li Mo to call, you can see Li Mo's news in the newspaper.

"It's not to see her, I have other things to do this time. Li Mo said.

In fact, it was for this little Sara that Li Mo came to the United States, as for the acquisition, Li Mo did not necessarily need to come forward in person, he could explain it on the phone. And at the negotiating table, he is not necessarily more capable than Zerfmann.

But some, Li Mo was not easy to explain, so he fooled around.

"Your brother is soft-hearted. The little fat man said.

This time I came to San Francisco, I had a lot of acquaintances, and more than a dozen classmates were invited by Li Mo to his mansion for a party. There is also a mansion...... That mansion, kill Li Mo, Li Mo will not let Le Yijuan know.

"Li Mo is kind, Du Zhengwei, you can't shoot like this if you want to make a sycophant. Wang Xiaoman sneered.

When I came to the United States, I could see more news about Li Mo, Li Mo shorted several times, which led to the bankruptcy of many people, at most Li Mo's heart is not too evil, but it cannot be described by good words.

Li Mo wanted to say that Mencius once scolded Mozi's words that love and non-aggression are livestock, at least kindness and benevolence should also be divided into one object, evil to one's own family, benevolence and righteousness to outsiders and even to enemies, isn't it more of an animal behavior than Mozi's love and non-aggression?

But at the point where he has to speak carefully, and it is better not to show some ideas.

He just smiled slightly and asked, "Wang Xiaoman, learn from scratch now, can you keep up." ”

"It's okay, Li Mo, sister was hurt by you. ”

If it weren't for Li Mo, her family wouldn't have placed her at Warpoly in advance.

But it wasn't Li Mo who harmed it, it was her family who killed it.

Wan Chunhong asked: "Li Mo, listen to Pang Chun......

"Yes, in the second half of next year, I will give each of you a million dollars for you to invest, and if you lose it, it will be mine, and you will receive dividends if you earn, so as to further sharpen your business talents. ”

Pang Chunlai was silent in the back, and after coming to the United States, he learned about Li Mo's wealth, not to mention the companies in Pudong.

"Zhao Hui, in the future, you will go to the Aiao studio for an internship. ”

Zhao Hui likes to read novels and fantasizes, and his composition scores in the class were also good before, so Li Mo had this arrangement.

mentioned Io Studio, Le Yijuan said, "Brother, how did you plan that movie?"

"Fatal Bend?"

Le Yijuan nodded.

There are also many bloody or glamorous scenes in 400 Years of Horror, The Silence of the Lambs, and Screams, otherwise they would not have been classified as R-rated movies.

But those three movies are still acceptable to Le Yijuan, but this movie makes Le Yijuan unacceptable, not only are there many nude scenes in it, but the content is also extremely bloody, and what makes her unacceptable, in the end, all the "good guys" were killed.

Li Mo explained again.

"This can be regarded as following the local customs, China is a Chinese movie, and the United States is an American movie. In fact, the same is true for the operation of the company, the United States has the national conditions of the United States, and the company must be operated according to the national conditions of the United States, and China also has the national conditions of China, and the company must be operated according to the national conditions of China. To put it simply, in China, officials must be invited to eat, drink, and give a small gift, otherwise things will not be done. But in the U.S., you also have to learn skills, such as some trade unions, animal associations, and proper 'sponsorship', so that they don't come to your door and look for trouble. ”

Of course, the situation in the United States is certainly a little better than that of China, but if it is a company that is purely owned by China or ethnic Chinese, it will undoubtedly be more difficult and suppressed.

So going forward, the situation in Africa will be even worse, and only the companies that have invested abroad in China have been most successful in investing in Africa. For no other reason, although Africa is worse and even some people have been killed, they will not deliberately squeeze out companies that make things difficult for China.

This is also the reason why Li Mo dragged many American investors into the shares.

"Wang Xiaoman, after coming to the United States, I know that it is different from China. ”

However, it is impossible for Wang Xiaoman to fully figure it out at the moment.

"Li Mo, after graduation, shall I go to your company to work?"

"Yes, my temple is small, and I can't afford to support you as a god. Li Mo immediately refused.

"Your temple is small?"

"In China, it's not the Qianduo Temple that is big, but the Guanda Temple that is big. If you want to engage in business in the future, you don't have to work in our company, you can open a company directly. With your old man's connections, you can make a lot of money casually. ”

"Li Mo, are you slandering?"

"You're wrong, this year I deliberately came up with some test questions for students who want to come to my company for internships, and one of them is how do you think the prince breaks the law and is guilty of the same crime with the people?" Li Mo said his own answer, and added: "Or put it this way, the people respect the sky and hate the sky." If the sky does well, it will make the people respect the sky, and if the sky does not do well, it will make the people hate the sky and resist the sky, and even overthrow it. Your grandfather is also ......."
