427 is still too tender

In fact, Liu Anran's thinking is still a little biased, whether it is in the previous life or in this life, he has never reached the height of wealth like Colcleon, so he is a little inaccurate in grasping the other party's mentality. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

Inviting him over today, although Colcleon wanted Liu Anran to raise some offers as much as possible, this was not the main purpose of his invitation to Liu Anran.

He is indeed interested in the first place, and his original plan was indeed to sell all the MGM stocks in his hand and get out of the quagmire of MGM as soon as possible. But Liu Anran's appearance made him see the hope of continuing to invest.

He has owned MGM for too long, but he has never set his sights on MGM, only relying on MGM to develop his real estate and gaming industry.

Liu Anran's speech aroused his strong interest, as if MGM did not only have the value of the film library as he expected, but also had a certain development potential. It's just that this potential can't be stimulated by MGM itself, and the other three companies don't seem to have this condition.

So, after dinner and enjoying the sea view by the beach, Colcleon asked his biggest doubt, what kind of film to use to hit the Oscars, and what kind of means to double MGM's stock price.

"I don't know if you have noticed, even if the Hollywood scene in recent years seems to be very beautiful, it is difficult to hide the trace of decadence under this glamorous appearance." Liu Anran carefully considered the language and spoke.

"In recent years, there have been fewer and fewer classic Hollywood films, far from the state of the best films stacked in previous years. Although the box office performance is getting better and better, the overall level is in a regressive situation considering inflation and other factors. ”

"At the end of the day, it's the lack of original script creators. In other words, in the history of Hollywood, the subject matter that can be filmed is almost exhausted, and it is difficult to make innovations, so now all film companies are focusing on the adaptation of games and comics. ”

"When Dream Media was first established, we set out to acquire the adaptation rights of excellent works. I'm not worried about the profitability of the films in the future, and whether these films are produced by Dream Media or MGM is not of much impact on me. ”

"I think it's easy to make money by making movies. You can look at the films I've released, and the word of mouth for my "Sniper Phone Booth," which just opened at the Toronto Film Festival. So far, we haven't lost money on these films. ”

"And to put it bluntly, I don't really value MGM's library. If I were to divest the library and auction it off separately, I would rather sell the library because of MGM's distribution channels and filmmakers. Wealth can be accumulated slowly, but it takes people to accumulate it. ”

"MGM has a complete global distribution channel, and if we set up this channel by Dream Media ourselves, it will require a lot of investment in funds and personnel, and it will take a lot of time. The recruitment of filmmakers is not so easy. If you want to cultivate a complete system, it is impossible to complete it in more than three years. ”

"The reason why I had the intention of buying MGM was to reduce the time for the development of my entire film and television industry. In fact, whether or not we can acquire MGM has not had a great impact on us Dream Media. As long as the quality of the films we shoot is good, everyone is happy to help us distribute them and earn a part of the distribution fee. ”

"Andy, I believe you, and I can understand what you're saying. But you haven't said it yet, why are you so confident to hit the Oscars. Colkrien said with a smile.

"It's because we have the script." Liu Anran said confidently.

"Maybe some of the scripts and rights that we bought were expensive, but they were fantastic. If you've been following some of the news from Dream Media, you should know that AngLee will join us as a studio after Marvel's Hulk ends. ”

"No matter what award is selected, literary films occupy a large proportion. In fact, there is a wide range of literary films now, and we have sufficient reserves in this area. In addition to some commercial blockbusters, we will also invest a lot in such films. ”

"Now I'm conflicted too. On the one hand, I hope that you will be optimistic about our acquisition and support us, but I think that in this case, you may have to take a certain percentage of the shares, which is to grab money from me. On the other hand, I hope that you are not optimistic about us, and you just want to get more money in this acquisition transaction, which is also robbing me of my money. ”

"Andy, I find that I like you more and more. I've made a decision that I can support your company's acquisition of MGM, but I want to hold at least 20% of the shares. Colkrion looked at Liu Anran and said with a smile.

"No, 20 percent is too much, and it will hinder me from adjusting to MGM. 10%, no more. Liu Anran said without thinking about it.

If Colcleon is allowed to control 20% of the shares, the future is too risky. Don't see that you can have an absolute advantage at the time, but compared with this kind of old rich man, the means are still worse. All of his own wealth was thrown out, and he didn't have as much wealth as Colkrion.

"Andy, don't insist so much, how about a 15% stake? I'll personally help you clear all the hurdles to acquisition. Colkrien continued to smile.

"In fact, what I want to see most in my heart is that other shareholders hold no more than 5% of the shares except me." Liu Anran looked at Colkrien and said with a firm look in his eyes.

"Andy, well, you've won. 10% of the shares, plus cash. Colkrien shrugged his shoulders and smiled like an old fox.

Liu Anran regretted that he was still too tender, maybe the stake that Colcleon expected in his heart was not so high. The reason why he proposed a 20% stake was just to test himself and see how high his expectations were for the future MGM, but he was stunned and gave him 10% directly.

"You're too cunning, can I have a reversal?" Thinking of this, Liu Anran said with a wry smile.

"No, Andy, now we should have a drink and celebrate the success of our collaboration. And you can rest assured, I will make the whole transaction process much shorter. Colkrion said, holding up his glass.

Liu Anran shook his head helplessly, and also picked up his wine glass and touched it gently.
