Chapter 452: Megan Fox
Robert does know a lot about the Disney board of directors, and after nearly a month of discussion, the board of directors officially authorized Robert to start negotiations for the acquisition of Marvel. At this time, Marvel and DD Studios have announced that the two sides have reached an agreement on the acquisition intention and are ready to start negotiations on specific acquisition terms.
Of course, that's not to say that the deal between the two is pretty much done. The significance of this clause is that the directors of Marvel agree on the possibility of selling the company to DD Pictures, and then only specific conditions need to be met, including the most important price, as well as employees, benefits, and even the development of the company, and restrictions on each other's industries, etc., these specific things, still need to work for a relatively long time - under normal circumstances, what happens to the joining, the sincerity of both parties is too much, and the process will be quickly shortened.
Disney's intervention has added attention to the scene.
After killing Sony and winning MGM, DD Pictures continued to win the Disney game, perhaps in the eyes of many people, it is a verification action, indicating that it is indeed on par with the old studios, not only in terms of box office and revenue, but also in terms of intangible assets such as influence and market reputation, and in many cases, the intangible is more important.
"2.8 billion?"
Daniel only focused on this most important number, in fact, he thinks it's already quite good, considering that just a year later, Disney spent more than 4 billion on Marvel. The current Marvel is indeed not worth the price, without Iron Man, without Captain America, Marvel's main potential assets now - those heroes, are not worth up yet.
However, Daniel has no intention of relenting, and to be honest, if Daniel agrees, the deal may not be closed immediately. Marvel's board of directors will definitely take it as a price code. Trying to get a better price from Disney, Disney is also rich, and 2.8 billion may not be able to make them retreat. Doing so will cause trouble.
"Let's talk to them according to our plan."
DD's price is 2.5 billion, a difference of 300 million, which is a big number.
……
"It's been a fast year."
Daniel, Paul. Walker, Megan. Fox and Michael. Bey, at Daniel's house in Malibu, discusses the sequel to "Transformers" - "Transformers" ended up with a global box office of around 1.36 billion, second only to "Titanic" and in the Chinese market. "Transformers" cut 480 million, nearly 60 million US dollars, surpassing South Korea's 52 million, becoming the largest overseas market, especially in 3D digital and digital IMAX, the performance is very bright.
The Chinese market has really come to the center of the vision of Hollywood studios, since 2007!
The second-largest box office market after North America is a reality that no one can ignore, and the Chinese market will be under more diplomatic pressure. This is also inevitable. The MPAA has met to discuss how to ask the State Department to make more significant efforts to urge China to open its markets and increase box office allocation. Even, the MPAA took the lead, and several members of Congress. A deputy secretary of state met to discuss the issue, and they wanted Daniel to be present in person, as the person with the closest ties to China in Hollywood, at the same time. He also has an important position in American politics, and his opinion is crucial, but Daniel was not in attendance. David attended that meeting on behalf of DD Pictures, and many people were still disappointed.
Hearing Daniel's exclamation, Meghan looked left and right, "Maybe it's because your time is spent on campus." ”
Daniel has had almost no film work this year, spending all his time at Berkeley except for business and publicity work, and he is trying to get his graduation on time, but it still seems to be difficult.
"Seriously, you're studying business at Berkeley, do the teachers really dare to teach you?"
Megan asked curiously.
Since "Transformers" has become extremely popular around the world, Megan. Fox is already the dream goddess of countless young people, sexy, youthful, and energetic, Megan's impression is completely in line with young men's imagination of women, and it is obvious that Megan will have a good ranking in many sexy, beautiful and other evaluation lists at the end of the year.
"Why not? There are quite a few people in Berkeley who have won the Nobel Prize, and even if the president is in front of them, it's nothing remarkable, let alone me. ”
"I need to go first, what about you?"
Michael looked at his watch, he has another itinerary next, I have to say that although he was a big director before, but after "Transformers", his commercial value has still made a leap, and since then he has really entered the first-class ranks, second only to Steven and James.
"I'm going to the association."
Paul is talking about a surfing association in Los Angeles, he is the most indifferent of several people, whether it is popular or not, whether it is before or after, he always lives at his own pace, racing, surfing, ocean, hiking, anyway, as long as it is something outside of work, he rarely does extra work, life is what he wants.
This point, in fact, was specifically mentioned by Oprah on the Oprah talk show last time.
She said that Paul and Daniel are simply the two extremes of Hollywood, they are not like most Hollywood stars, work, enjoy, indulge and luxury, Daniel is a whole workaholic, half "puritan", and Paul is a person who is free from the circle, he rarely moves in the circle, and spends most of his time on hobbies outside the circle.
Oprah asserts that the distinction is in part a shared endorsement — that neither of them should spend their time constantly changing girlfriends, partying, drinking and yachting. This is perhaps an important reason for their friendship.
"Making friends is sometimes hard to deduce mathematically."
Daniel's reply avoids directly acknowledging the reality that most of his peers are a bunch of bastards.
Hearing Michael and Paul's words, Daniel stood up and prepared to see them off.
As a result, Megan shouted dissatisfiedly, "Daniel, are you going to drive away the guests?" I didn't say I was leaving. ”
The two old men squeezed their eyes at Daniel, and of course everyone could see what Meghan meant.
The little girl was attracted to Daniel.
Actually, it's not from now, it's just that as Meghan's popularity grows, she thinks that this possibility is getting bigger and bigger, so it's more obvious.
Daniel smiled helplessly.
"No one drove you away, I just sent them first."
"Alright! Bye-bye, both. ”
“…… Bye-bye, it sounds like you're a hostess. Michael made a malicious joke of her.
It's a pity that young and senseless girls don't have more emotions than smugness. (To be continued.) )
