Chapter 814: Paramount feels like he's a wife

Boss, you can do some personnel!

The two strategy executives suddenly had a big head, and they didn't know why, they actually had the illusion that the boss was telling the truth.

He said that he wanted to buy MGM, not because MGM had turned a profit, nor because he had a library of 4,000 MGM films, nor because MGM's 007 series was indeed one of the most profitable film series.

I really just want to replace the logo that hinders his eyes.

They could already imagine the scene at the press conference, when the reporter asked why the cat factory chose MGM, one of them had to be in full view of the public, saying: "It's not that our cat factory can't afford other companies, we chose MGM because the boss wants to replace the lion's head with a cat's head." ”

The reporter probably had to throw the microphone and smash them.

"Although MGM is no longer in the top six, the price is actually not much different from Paramount, its film library resources are very large, and it also has a very big advantage in terms of distribution." Pei Qianlong said.

"The richest man and Jack Ma before, in fact, they all fought the idea of MGM and Paramount, Paramount still rejected Huaxia Capital at an offer of 8 billion US dollars, and MGM was about the same, so Wang Shoufu chose Legendary Pictures." Concubine Han analyzed on the side.

Although MGM is looked down on in various ways, compared with Legendary Pictures, MGM's family is really royal blood.

"How long will it take to buy it, by the way, make it clear to them, I'm going to change it to a cat head." Lin Dong rubbed his hands.

"I estimate that it will be more than six billion US dollars......" Concubine Han gave her stock price after Pei Qianlong nodded.

Although Legendary Pictures may be called second-rate, it has produced a series of blockbusters with global impact anyway, including the "Batman" series, "Inception", "The Hangover", "Jurassic World", "300 Warriors: Rise of Empires", "Pacific Rim", "Superman: Man of Steel", etc., which have grossed more than $12 billion at the global box office, and each name is thunderous.

The price given by Wanda is 3.5 billion US dollars, and the industry generally believes that he is expensive.

MGM will definitely be higher, but it can't be as high as Paramount, after all, in addition to the "007" series, others such as "The Hobbit" are actually produced by Warner, and New Line and MGM are only co-producers.

Back in 1989, Sony bought Columbia Pictures for a record $3.4 billion, and in 2005, MGM for $4.8 billion.

Well, MGM's current valuation is unlikely to be below $5 billion.

According to the data, MGM's shares traded in the New York OTC market are as high as $96 per share, with a valuation of nearly $4.6 billion.

Given the illiquidity of the OTC market, this valuation is only a guideline.

Judging from the annual report released by MGM, it has achieved a profit of more than $100 million in the past four years, which are $122 million, $156 million, $252 million, and $156 million, respectively.

People don't lose money, with a 007 a year, and other miscellaneous ones, they have made a profit.

If you lose money, you can win about five or six billion dollars.

If you don't lose money......

The three of them came to the conclusion that it was more than $7.5 billion.

Boss Lin is not distressed, he is a symbol of a rice movie with 7.5 billion yuan from Mi Guo people and a rice country movie symbol with more than 4,000 movie copyrights.

We often have people who don't know how to run over there and don't come back.

The system may have taken their money.

As for whether MGM is willing to sell it, don't worry about that.

Every year, there is news that MGM is going to be sold, and even they themselves sometimes announce that they are in contact with some capital.

Not long ago, I heard that Ahri was in contact, but now it seems that he has stopped contacting.

Limit capital outflows.

After all, most of the money that the capital takes to acquire is borrowed from banks.

"Once we acquire MGM, our films can enter the Migo market through MGM's distribution channels, Shushan, Shanhai, Special Wolf and other upcoming movies, those movies in MGM's film library, we can also do remakes...... Lin Dong said conclusively: "What I want is not protracted negotiations, time is more precious than money, I give you the authority of 10 billion US dollars, give me MGM!" ”

10 billion US dollars is 67 billion Chinese dollars.

All of a sudden, the funds in his account were almost emptied.

77.992 billion, excluding the three billion to the technical research institute, the remaining is less than 75 billion.

In this way, Lin Dong will only have eight billion left.

Eight billion to the company's departments to divide a point, he has no money and is light.

"We'll do it right away." Gonggong Pei wailed in his heart.

With such a big acquisition, it is naturally impossible to let Concubine Han go alone, she is not ruthless enough in some aspects.

If Concubine Han goes to buy it, 10 billion will not be enough, but 9 billion US dollars may be much less.

But he, Pei Qianlong, is out of the horse, and seven or eight billion is enough.

First of all, the first step is to search for as much information as possible, and entrust it to several local private detective agencies.

This is very popular over there.

They can even find out that the shareholder's dog was shot dead by a neighbor.

No matter how big or small, as long as MGM is related to Paramount, shareholders, and partners, everything must be in hand.

Since Father-in-law Pei doesn't like airplanes, it is Concubine Han who goes to the United States.

Pei Gonggong takes the overall situation, analyzes the intelligence, and gives practical strategies.

Most of the time, the strategy department of the cat factory is in this form of operation, two groups of people, one bright and one dark, can not only cooperate with each other, but also cover each other.

The reason for the information of MGM and Paramount.

Naturally, it is to confuse the line of sight.

Let each other know that it is not their own family that is being acquired, and both sides will negotiate with real guns.

It's just that the last acquisition will be MGM.

This way of striking at the east and west is very effective, and the ancestors have proved it with countless facts.

If you compare MGM to Paramount, MGM is no match for Paramount, even if Paramount is now losing money, and MGM is more or less profitable.

Because MGM's profit method is so thin, almost all of them count on this year's 007.

If it weren't for "007", MGM might not even be as emaciated as a camel.

Once "007" hits the streets, MGM will immediately fall into a debt crisis and may go bankrupt at any time.

And although the Paramount family is losing money, they don't owe so much money.

Therefore, even when Paramount received the acquisition request from Huaxia Capital, he felt that he was the real heroine.

MGM is at most a junior.

Poor Migo people, they don't lack wisdom, but they prefer to rely on absolute strength to force people, even if the means are very shameless.

And Pei Qianlong and Concubine Han's partner made one after another tricks, and they couldn't prevent it, making all of them anxious in an instant.
