118 King of the World
For MGM, Chen Xueqian has no idea. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info, the legendary company of the lion's head logo, Chen Xueqian clearly remembers that in his previous life, it was acquired by Sony for $5 billion in 2005.
Chen Xueqian couldn't afford this amount of money at this time, and even if he could, Chen Xueqian was not ready to consider buying it, because MGM, the company, had fallen into a terminal stage.
To a large extent, its failure is no longer due to the lack of profitability of the company, but to the management of the entire company.
This kind of company with its own huge framework, Chen Xueqian is simply not sensitive. If he wants to save such a company, Chen Xueqian is likely to be beyond his strength.
He has a prescient preconception, and he has more than ten years of experience ahead of this time. But none of this can improve his management skills.
Nowadays, his management level is more based on the set he honed in his previous life at the engineering site.
Let's be honest, there may be more complex organizational structures in this world than on a construction site, but it's hard to have teams and projects that are more difficult to manage than a construction site.
Because such a team is too mixed. And it's extremely liquid. Chen Xueqian can say without modesty that if a person can manage a project well, then he can challenge any management project.
Of course, this is just bragging!
You must know that each project and field has its own particularity, and many times, different situations, problems that need to be faced, and different management methods, Chen Xueqian is actually just a layman for the film company. Let him take over MGM, he naturally can't do it.
But he got an inspiration from MGM. In later generations, it is true that the United States has always maintained the pattern of six major film companies, but it is not without companies that want to be among them.
And among these companies that are most trying to become the film giants, there is one company that is the most promising, because this company has its own distribution channels.
And what's even better about the company for Mr. Chen is that when he was acquired by Lionsgate in 2012, he offered only $420 million.
Although this number is only for Chen Xueqian at this time, it is still a huge amount that cannot be afforded. But you must know that this matter has just entered 2003, and the company at this time is not as valuable as later generations, and the quotation may be less than 1/4.
And that company seems to have been founded in 1993, and the company became famous in 2004, in other words, the company was not well-known until then.
In this way, Chen Xueqian can eliminate many unnecessary worries. There will be no other interested people, and there will be much less resistance.
Chen Xueqian was thinking about things in his heart, and the fingers of his left hand kept tapping on the tabletop, and at a certain moment, the movements in his hands suddenly sounded, and he immediately spoke: "Collect the information of Dingfeng Entertainment Company!" ”
"Summit Entertainment?" Bai Feifei was stunned when she heard Chen Xueqian's words, she had sorted out the companies that had been poorly managed in the United States recently. However, she had no impression of this company, and she didn't understand why this company attracted Chen Xueqian's attention.
Immediately, she realized that the name of the company should be an entertainment company, so it is understandable for Chen Xueqian to pay attention to it. After all, Chen Xueqian has been doing such a thing recently.
After Bai Feifei got Chen Xueqian's latest instructions, he left the office to collect information.
And Chen Xueqian finally found the direction to break the joint suppression of the six major companies. Then all that's left is the contract with Warner!
Immediately, Chen Xueqian formally proposed to Warner his intention to terminate the contract, which Warner did not shirk. After all, this ending is also what they want to see the most.
They don't expect to get Chen Xueqian's liquidated damages through this project, they just want to stop the mouths of several other companies by the way, and they won't completely turn against Chen Xueqian.
And the performance at this time undoubtedly shows that Chen Xueqian has realized this. In this way, Warner's purpose was naturally successful, so there was no prevarication of Chen Xueqian's proposal to terminate the contract.
After learning the news, Joseph came to Robinov's office as soon as possible, and when he saw the official letter handed over by Joseph, Robinov couldn't help but raise his eyebrows slightly, and he suddenly felt that this young man was very interesting.
Although he took the initiative to show favor to this young man, this young man's unwavering behavior still surprised him a little.
This kind of open-mindedness is not like what a teenager should have at all. The so-called subsections show their people. Robinov suddenly felt that perhaps such a decision of his own today would become a large intangible wealth one day in the future.
Robinov pondered for a moment and decisively agreed to the contract proposed by Chen Xueqian, he was also a little curious, what this little guy would do next!
At this time, in Chen Xueqian's studio in Los Angeles, a group of people were looking at them with a look of astonishment.
Just five minutes ago, Chen Xueqian walked into the company, and then clapped his hands and let everyone come together, and after looking around, Chen Xueqian said: "I think everyone should know that one of my scripts has just terminated the contract with Warner. ”
The people below were in a commotion when they heard this, to be honest, everyone was still a little worried about the failure of this project, but Chen Xueqian continued to speak as if he hadn't noticed the commotion: "And I tried to contact other companies, but no one agreed to our invitation. ”
This time, the employees below couldn't help but really stir. Being rejected by all the companies is to some extent saying that the script has become a pile of waste paper.
However, Chen Xueqian's next words immediately calmed everyone!
"So, I decided to leave those studios behind and do it myself!"
Chen Xueqian's voice was still the same tone and volume, but this sentence fell into the ears of everyone present, but it was like a thunderclap.
Making your own films? Is this a joke? We have a director? Talented? Do you have any equipment?
No, no, no, none of this!
Since you don't have one, then it's a fart?
That's what almost everyone in the room is saying. However, Chen Xueqian was not affected by them at all, and continued.
"Now your task is to get the word out right away and find actors for the movie!" Chen Xueqian's words are still in order. But the people below were sluggish, and they were undoubtedly all stupid by Chen Xueqian.
It wasn't until Chen Xueqian clapped his hands again that everyone came back to their senses from the shock.
All of this is really true!
They really want to leave everyone behind and go it alone!
At this time, everyone in the office looked at Chen Xueqian with a strange look, and they were all thinking in their hearts that this guy was really an out-and-out madman.
Absolutely insane! Otherwise, how could he be so crazy and make a movie on his own, how much money does it need to invest, without any preparation, this money can be said to be basically thrown into the water.
It's simply burning money! It's still the kind of money-burning method that doesn't see hope at all!
What is a person who can do such a thing and is not a madman?
Chen Xueqian, who was standing in the crowd, was unaware of this, and he suddenly felt as if he had brought his own blower, and it seemed that the whole world was singing an ode.
It seems that a voice in the darkness is saying to him, "You are the king of this world!" Welcome to the world of cinema!
