Chapter 489: There is no hurdle that cannot be overcome

(Note: There is a bug that the $150 million agreed between Joros and MGM should be including royalties and a 2% share transfer)

The development of things is not much different from the trajectory that Ye Luo envisioned. [Big & book & bag & small & talk & net.] 】

Joros, after negotiating with Cole Klecorion, easily took Warners and over the next three days took down four other studios except Coronya.

On the other side, Todgarner attacked North American independent film companies such as Weixiu, Telescope, Chuan, Miramax, Shimen, Pinnacle, Aiken, Original, Regent, and Jerry Bruheimer.

In a short period of time, a number of acquisition intent agreements have been reached.

What fell behind were those that included Screen Screen, Samsung Columya, Sony Entertainment, and Sony's subsidiaries.

There wasn't a lot of tossing and turning, and most companies were very interested in having new revenue channels, not to mention old movies.

In addition, don't look at these big companies to look very beautiful, what "Titanic", "Independence/Liri" and other blockbusters one after another, but bad movies are ten times better than good movies.

Many companies have made movies, and two out of five are already very profitable.

Most film companies have bad movies and good movies, and no one buys them when they sell DVDs. It's rare to have a fool's door acquisition, who is stupid enough to refuse?

The small difference is that some companies choose the share system, such as Warner, and I don't know what their CEO thinks.

In addition, it was Joros and Yelo who renegotiated the purchase price rules. For example, if there is a popular film, the global box office exceeds US$100 million, and then every additional 100 million adds 20,000, and the box office below 100 million is 80,000 (Note 1).

MGM 580 units, the average price of a purchase is close to 90,000 yuan, Warner 750 units, the price is also close to 90,000 yuan, and other companies are roughly under 100,000 yuan. (Note 2)

So in the end, the film libraries of more than 30 companies, nearly 5,800 films, need Ye Luo to pay nearly 630 million US dollars.

This number is not difficult for him now, but he didn't want to make a stupid one-time payment, and he had to receive the goods. And the time it takes to organize such a huge photo library is not overnight.

Therefore, it is only cost-effective to invest most of your money in buying and selling with a higher rate of return for the time being. For example, gambling on football and buying oil futures.

Now Cole is much better, the dark clouds on his face have dispersed, and he can tease the female secretary from time to time. But in contrast, Columbia's Amy Pascal and Sony's Mike Elrington are a little unhappy.

said that he would stop the phantom from squeezing in to share the distribution of this cake, and within a few days, they found that no other boss responded to them.

What happened?

After Joros and Todgarner privately negotiated the acquisition of the film with major companies and paid some extra money to buy it, the companies no longer pressured the theaters to stop the Phantom.

They still know which one is lighter and which one is heavier, and close to $100 million in the account is enough to buy the discipline of the top executives of these large companies.

And the small company didn't get involved in this matter. It's none of your business, hang high. Moreover, some are very happy to see the Phantom squeezing into the distribution ranks, after all, with the bold attitude of the Phantom, it is difficult to say that there will be no chance of cooperation in the future.

These large companies, by virtue of their monopoly, have a hard time for them in the issuance of shares.

As a result, "Extreme Agent", "Grab the Money to Grab Harvard", and "Anger Management" quickly launched distribution and publicity matters, and screens on television, newspapers, and theaters were everywhere.

For a while, Joros was in high spirits again, the company is now completely out of the control of others, and the production and distribution are all controlled by themselves, which feels cool!

Although the theater chain is also stuck with the Phantom, it is an extra point in the division, but there is no problem at all. Ye Luo told him not to care, money is a trivial matter.

You know, the CEO of MGM and the executive director of Warner are facing layoffs because of profit problems.

"The people over there got the news that it was the Phantom who bought their online broadcast rights, and there were many concessions at the price, so that the distribution would no longer be blocked!"

Inside the Sony Pictures office, the female secretary reports to Mike Ellington and Amy Pascal.

"The Phantom has taken a shot at all the companies?

"Well, yes! In addition to our company and its subsidiaries, the other seven major companies and many independent film companies have accepted the copyright acquisition of Phantom!

"I thought Joe was negotiating with various families these days, but I didn't expect to play a secret crossing Chen Cang!Wait, that copyright is not a DVD copyright, right?"

As he spoke, Michael Erlington suddenly asked with some urgency. Now the company's plan is to acquire DVD rights from various companies to support the Blu-ray DVD technology being developed by the headquarters.

If this is cut off by the Phantom, it will be a big joke.

"No, it's said to be a network broadcast copyright!"

"That's good, that's good!"

Hearing the secretary's explanation, Mike Erlinton breathed a sigh of relief.

"I really didn't expect this loe to have such a hand!"

Amy is also a little unbelievable that an Asian boss has opened up the joints of major Hollywood companies in an instant and squeezed into the ranks of the team to eat the distribution cake. When I said it, I guess no one believed it.

"Don't forget, he is very rich, and I heard that his background is very strong, what is the second generation of red, the family has at least 10 billion assets, and he is still a gambling god, these money people don't care!"

Mike Erlinton still doesn't think Yello's plan is very clever, in his opinion, the acquisition of film rights is just a way to buy a way with money.

"Rich and capricious, what kind of gambling god? It's just a coincidence, a few rich losers met together! And let him win a game! If it's really a gambling god, why don't you see a follow-up?

By the way, what are we going to do? Do we want to stop it?"

Amy pouted, but this action was a little funny in an aunt like her, who was close to half a hundred, and it wasn't a bit coquettish.

"There's no need, it's already broken, and it's too late to make up for it! This matter is just the emotion of the big boss who doesn't accept it, and it has nothing to do with interests!

At this point, I believe the boss will also see it! And not only will we not stop it, but we will also get in touch with the phantom, how to say, there are also 100 films in the library, more than 10 million dollars, don't do it in vain!"

Sony, including its subsidiaries, has produced more than 100 films to date.

"But will that Loe buy us? He's a young man, and he's inevitably angry!"

"Don't worry, as long as he wants to mix in Hollywood, he won't dare to offend us deeply! In any case, we have much more resources than he does. ”

Tianjin, Yangcun Film and Television Base.

"Congratulations, I didn't expect you to solve it so quickly, it's really surprising! This is really a good idea!

"You're amazing! Even Hollywood companies have been defeated by you!"

“...”

Dong Jie, Shu Hui, Liu Yifei, Zhou Haimei and others all congratulated Ye Luo one by one. Liu Xiaoli has been in the United States, and others are more aware of the monopoly power of the Big Seven.

Seeing the Phantom of the Newspaper break through the cage of circulation, her heart was shocked by anyone who came. Shocking and snickering, snickering that she made such a wise decision to let Sissi join the Phantom.

Others are also in their hearts, such a person who is giggling with everyone in the crew, his energy can actually make big Hollywood companies back down.

Is the world crazy?

For a while, many people began to believe the rumors in the newspaper, wondering if Ye Luo's background had any connection with the Ye family in Guangdong?

"Thanks, but it's not like I'm good, and I didn't do anything. As for why they allowed it, it may be that their conscience found out, and they felt uneasy about bullying such a handsome and dashing teenager as me!"

"Phew—"

Everyone began to boo him for his shameless words.

Yu Ji's nose is all dog's, and the wind has just come out there, and the domestic newspaper has published it. Including "Phantom defeats Hollywood's seven major companies", "Ye Luo spent a lot of money to buy roads" and so on.

(Note 1: This price is based on the domestic video network fee of 200,000, according to the person in charge of Hengye copyright, in 2012, the domestic film network copyright is 200,000;

Based on this, the Hollywood film is set to 500,000, and taking into account factors such as time, network bubbles, copyright scope, and the initial development of video stations, it is assumed that the video network copyright fee in 02 is about 100,000. ）
