364 Benefits for Small Companies

Although there were small twists and turns in the shooting, the overall progress was still very smooth. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 The info actors worked hard, the rest of the staff worked hard, and the quality of the shooting every day was great. Now the entire shooting progress has been nearly half completed, and the time has come to the end of April.

This also makes Peng Shuyan very happy, and now she has been promoted to the logistics minister of the crew, and what she thinks about every day is to match the diet for everyone. Watching so many people eat the meals they arranged, and watching her son make movies when she is idle, Peng Shuyan is very satisfied.

"Neurotic, we're coming to see you." Liu Anran had just finished a shooting when he heard Avril's voice.

Looking back, Avril, Jennifer, and Taylor were all standing behind them. Avril is shorter, although she is the oldest of the three, but in Liu Anran's heart, she is still classified as a little one.

"Why did you three come up and run over here to play? Jennifer, you're not going to sneak out again, are you? Liu Anran looked at the three little guys and asked.

Hearing Liu Anran's words, Jennifer's little face, which was still enthusiastic just now, suddenly tensed, and it was full of unhappiness.

"Haha, Jennifer, I'm kidding you, how could I forget that your movie is going to be on too." Reminded of the peacock's movements, Liu Anran hurriedly remedied.

"Hmph, Avril is right, you must have forgotten it." Jennifer pouted.

"Well, I'll confess, I did forget. As compensation, would it be okay for you to eat sherba bean paste at noon? Liu Anran hurriedly raised his hand and surrendered.

Jennifer was very entangled, and she didn't want to forgive Liu Anran so quickly, but the soft and sweet snow cotton bean paste was really delicious.

"Jennifer, didn't we say yes. As long as Andy forgets about your filming, we will punish him. Seeing that Jennifer's momentum was a little shaken, Avril said agitationally on the side.

"Isn't it okay if I surrender? Besides, didn't you promise you to come to the opening of the first season of "American Idol" to cheer you on some time ago? Liu Anran looked at Avril pitifully and said.

Jennifer is a gluttonous little girl, and it's still relatively easy to handle, but Avril's naughty big girl is not so easy to handle.

Now her record is about to be released, so this girl is a little nervous. A few nights ago, the phone call was non-stop, and today I took my two little sisters directly to decompress.

As for Avril, she is not afraid of heaven and earth, but today when she saw everyone looking at this side, she was a little nervous.

"Alright, come here, kids." At this time, Liu's mother greeted the three girls not far away.

Avril made a grimace at Liu Anran, and then led the other two little guys to run over.

"How does "28 Days of Shock" look like in the eyes of you, the master of horror?" Liu Anran asked Wen Ziren.

"I think it's very good, it's definitely a money-making movie. Do you have any other requirements for "Ghost Record 3"? If not, I'll start shooting in the next few days. Wen Ziren asked after sitting down.

"No, I won't give you the script when I shoot a sequel in the future, you have to lead the team to develop it yourself. And you're going to have to make "Saw" next year, and the current plan is for the two series to be released every other year. Liu Anran shook his head and said.

"I heard Lin Yibin say that you have almost arranged the scenes he will shoot in the future. I was happy at first, thinking I didn't have to be so tired. Wen Ziren shrugged his shoulders and said.

"You think that's all you can do? No, no, no, this is just the beginning. Liu Anran said with a smile.

"Now we have three studios, Pixar Animation Studios and Marvel all have their own film themes, so you don't have to think about that. In the future, I plan to focus on the horror film series of Dream Media, so you have to pay attention to what I told you before. ”

Wen Ziren nodded and said, "I have already sent them an invitation, as long as there is a good script, we can help invest." But I listen to you, are we really going to buy other studios in the near future? ”

"Almost, let me tell you secretly, my goal is MGM." Liu Anran leaned over and said triumphantly.

Hearing Liu Anran's words, Wen Ziren, who was still sitting comfortably, sat up straight.

He knows that Liu Anran has a lot of scripts and copyrights in his hands, and if Dream Media focuses on horror films in the future, then it will inevitably continue to acquire the rest of the film companies to produce it. But he thought that he would buy something similar to Dream Media, who knew that Liu Anran actually played the idea of "Big Mac" MGM.

"Don't be so surprised, this is what we have determined after careful research in recent times." Liu Anran said with a smile.

"At the beginning of the year, Colcleon hired Goldman? The Sachs Group put MGM on the auction table for $7 billion. In their projection, their film library can help shareholders make more than $300 million in profits this year, plus their bank loans of 600 million and bank reserves of 116 million, which was very popular at that time. ”

"Their stock prices have been rising, and whether it's Time Warner, Disney, or Viacom, they've all expressed interest. It's just that the reserve price of 7 billion yuan, even these three don't dare to sell easily. If we wait until their "Wind Whisperer" is released, as long as MGM still wants to sell it, they will have to lower the reserve price, and this is our chance. ”

"But if MGM's auction reserve price is lowered, won't the rest of the companies have a better chance?" Wen Ziren asked with a frown.

"This reflects our advantages, we are a small company, and after acquiring MGM, we will definitely focus on MGM itself, which will make the rest of the management profitable. And those large companies will certainly not lean too much towards MGM itself in terms of resource allocation. Liu Anran said proudly.

Small also has small benefits, plus Edward from MGM is in charge of lobbying, this acquisition is highly viable. The task now is to sit back and wait for the box office after the release of "Wind Whisperer", and that is when it is time to make a move.

Maybe it's a bit unkind, but that's business, and there's not so much emotion to talk about. He doesn't want to wait until 2005 when Sony is also interested in MGM, and now he has the opportunity to try to get ahead of them. (To be continued.) )
