Ivy Synwert, a well-known Hollywood figure and contributing columnist for The New York Times, said, "With this IPO, Matrix has added two new directors to its board of directors. Although he is still the largest shareholder, controlling more than half of the company's shares, it will put an end to Chen Tiandu's dictatorship. This company is finally on the right track, and it will no longer be a big production that is scary every time. ”

But Paramount Chairman Shirley Lansing has a different opinion, "I don't think anything will change after the matrix goes public, so far, this company has been branded with too many traces of Chen Tiandu from scratch." Even if he shares part of the right to speak, can you reassure others? I think the biggest reason why Warner and Disney are vying for the shares of this company is that they are optimistic about Chen Tiandu himself. Let's ask, can you still be convincing after leaving Chen Tiandu's matrix company? His assertiveness is what keeps this company successful. ”

There are many independent production companies in Hollywood, and DreamWorks is one of the most famous. But DreamWorks' market capitalization is only $1.8 billion, and DreamWorks, which has been operating poorly recently, has been heavily in debt. Although it is still very popular, how can it compare to the matrix with good asset status.

And the matrix, which owns "The Sixth Sense", "Infernal Affairs", "The Matrix", "Pirates of the Caribbean", "Fast and Furious", "Juno" and other blockbuster productions, is more lucrative than DreamWorks in every aspect. And they also have "Transformers", "Special Forces", which are popular IPs, and "Van Helsing", which is already in the late stages of production, which is said to be the first work of the Matrix Monster Universe.

Anyone who sees it will have hot eyes and feel that this company has a lot of money.

The most disappointing thing for shareholders may just be that the listing scale is too small. After all, this is an independent listing of the matrix, and its increasingly popular Marvel company is not listed this time. And before going public, Chen Tiandu had just separated out of the special effects company...... Oh, and he's restructured the special effects company into Matrix Animation.

Although the animation company has not yet produced a single work, the ambition is already clear. People will not suspect that matrix special effects, as one of the four major special effects companies in Hollywood, will not be able to make good animation works.

With more than a billion dollars of money in hand, it went public without a shortage of money. Chen Tiandu is obviously not ready to give up too many shares, so he only takes out 25% of the shares for listing and circulation.

In addition, a major step in the company's development strategy, it will carry out a partial share swap with Warner at a ratio of 1:2.5. Becoming the second shareholder of the matrix, Disney also grabbed 5% of the shares of the matrix in the fundraising process and became the third shareholder.

Chen Tiandu personally became the largest private shareholder of Warner. Enjoy the right to board seats.

Of course, Chen Tiandu has nothing to do with this, which is also a compromise made by the matrix in the face of large companies recruiting security. After all, he still has to mix in the United States, and if the matrix wants to develop more smoothly, it is impossible to go alone.

Because the funds raised from this listing will be used for the future development strategy of Matrix Films. As for how to use it, how to use it. Needless to say, it all needs to be arranged by him, the chairman of the board of directors of Matrix Films.

Chen Tiandu owns 68.3% of the shares after the IPO, and some of the company's shares are used to motivate its executives and employees.

After the evaluation of the professional banks, the market capitalization of the matrix is as high as $5.5 billion, and the issue price is set at $28.5.

During the period from 9 o'clock to 9:30 o'clock, ordinary shareholders cannot know the details of transactions during this time, and even the listed companies themselves cannot know. It is only on the day of the company's listing today that you can see with your own eyes the ups and downs in the first half hour of the market.

The importance of stock trading during this period to listed companies is self-evident. Countless transaction information is frantically swiping the screen. It depends. It seems that the popularity of the matrix is not much less than that of Google.

In the blink of an eye, several multimillionaires were born within the matrix company, and there were dozens of millionaires. On this day, the employees who own the company's shares can't care about their normal work, and they all turn on their computers to stare at the stocks, looking at the numbers that have risen sharply at the opening, and they are overjoyed.

"Chen, congratulations, the matrix is so popular, and your net worth has increased again." Robert Downey Jr., who was a guest, congratulated.

"Thank you!"

Chen Tiandu sighed. Looking at the soaring numbers, he sighed with emotion: "Even if I look at it again, I still feel incredible......

"That's the power of capital."

It is obviously not the first time Peck has faced this situation, but it is the first time that he has appeared here as a master, "Before the listing, everyone was worried, and now finally a big rock has fallen." ”

Chen Tiandu took a few deep breaths, came back to his senses from Fang Cai's capital game, nodded and admitted calmly: "Although I expected it a little, this situation, no matter how many times I experienced it, was the same shock. Hopefully, by the time the market closes, it will be a good report card. ”

At 9:30, after months of preparation and publicity, Matrix Films, a production company that already has an astonishing reputation in the world, finally landed on the New York Stock Exchange for trading. By the time the market opened, the stock price had suddenly risen from $28 to $37.05, a full 30% increase, and the situation was very good.

According to this stock price, Chen Tiandu's net worth increased by another $4.8 billion. He is really a veritable billionaire. Just two listed companies have raised the number of intuitive assets under his name to $14.1 billion. If you include those considerable cash flows, as well as real estate resources that cannot be counted in China for the time being, as well as branches in China and South Korea, matrix animation companies, etc., his assets have exceeded 15 billion US dollars.

At this moment, financial analysts across Wall Street are paying close attention to the "matrix movie" to see what the prospects of this company, which has only been established for less than seven years, but whose name is comparable to Hollywood's Big Six, can create miracles after going public.

Analysts in various newspapers and magazines are also paying close attention, not only about how much the stock price of "Matrix Movie" can eventually climb, but also about how high Chen Tiandu, the largest shareholder and chairman of the board of directors of "Matrix Movie", can eventually soar.

Chen Tiandu has continued to succeed in recent years, and the box office of several consecutive movies has been jaw-dropping, plus he is the leading actor of the film. has made him one of Hollywood's most exposed superstars. Back then, he was just an ignorant young man, following Spielberg's ass and begging for a chance.

Today, he has a net worth of more than 15 billion US dollars, ranking 14th on the Forbes list of the world's richest people, and all the capital giants in front of him are famous. And now, he's among them.

Looking back on this inspirational experience, it can almost be said that it is very legendary, and it is difficult not to attract attention.

By the end of the day, the price remained at $39.8, up 42% on the first day of listing. Ordinary shareholders expect more from this film company than even the capitalists.

So the next day, Chen Tiandu once again brushed the front page of the newspaper.

"The opening price soared by 30%, and the closing price rose to 42%, and the listing of Matrix Films on the New York Stock Exchange today was popular......"

"Grabbing money Chen created another miracle, the stock price of the matrix soared by 42% on the first day of listing, and many multimillionaires were born......"

On the same day, the matrix announced the simultaneous establishment of three films, "Transformers", "Fast and Furious 3" and "Agent Couple", to increase shareholder confidence. Matrix Marvel also launched the superhero movies "Thor" and "Iron Man" at the same time. The separated matrix animation company will also officially start filming the first cartoon, and the script will be written by Chen Tiandu himself......"

The stock price of a film production company soared by nearly half on its first day of trading, a rare scene in Hollywood in recent years. Especially since the beginning of the new century, the Hollywood film market has been declining. Therefore, as soon as the data on the first day of the matrix listing came out, Chen Tiandu and his matrix once again became the focus of attention of the Hollywood media.

As for Chen Tiandu's net worth, the media no longer know how to report it, and even they feel bored when they re-mention it again and again.

Wall Street is not surprised by the popularity of matrix films, and the profit-seeking nature of capital makes it impossible to ignore the company's excellent business statements for several years. Although every investment is thrilling, they have magically managed to never lose money. Maybe once or twice, it can't make people's hearts move, and it can be attributed to good luck, but as long as you are not a fool many times, you will be moved.

This intense listing exposure behavior is really breathless.

It seems that this week's news is all inseparable from "Captain Jack".

Even if he returns to reality, people still can't stop paying attention to him.

With the help of this round of personal promotion, it actually drove the box office recovery of "Pirates of the Caribbean" again, earning 4.5 million and 4.8 million US dollars for two consecutive weeks, pushing the North American box office to 418.6 million US dollars, and the global box office also reached 1.0285 billion US dollars, which is really unexpected.

Or an old piece of news was confirmed, Chen Tiandu posted a new diary on his blog to be happy that the box office of "Pirates of the Caribbean" was picking up again, and also revealed the new work plan: "Next, "Batman 1: Time to War" will be launched in Detroit, which is the first time I have shot a movie in IMAX format, and it is also the first time to shoot an adaptation of a comic book hero. Batman is a superhero with a complex personality who has a dark side. I made a lot of preparations for this film, and I will try more in this film, and I hope it won't disappoint Batman fans this time! ”

This diary once again made the media and fans messy.

"Don't let people rest, Chen Tiandu has made up his mind not to give people a chance to breathe!"

The media, movie fans and fans were in a hurry for a while, and Chen Tian made up his mind not to give people a chance to breathe! (To be continued.) )
