Paramount is just going to sell himself?

When CEO Producer Mary Parente brought the news back, the people at MGM were stunned.

Even Carl Icahn, who is still lying in the hospital.

He always knew that his investment in MGM was a mistake, a shameful and humane failure of many achievements.

But he didn't expect to be stuck here for so long.

It's been 10 years.

As a Wall Street wolf who is good at short-term harvesting, this is almost his longest deal.

It's just that I didn't expect it to end miserably.

Therefore, he acquiesced in and supported Gary Barber's move to surrender to Huaxia Capital, and also removed Roger Birnbaum, another co-CEO who opposed the sale of MGM.

In addition, Carl Icahn also used his connections to give the green light to MGM's acquisition.

Such a cross-border acquisition requires Zheng Ce's support on both sides.

There are many industries that you can't just buy if you want to.

Fortunately, Carl Icahn is a supporter of the winning side of the election, having once put out millions of dollars in support of the incumbent.

And the current one is even more good friends.

Old age, injuries and illnesses have made this old man who has always been greedy and cruel lose his sharpness.

He just wants to get away from it all early and go to Amsterdam for the upcoming summer.

In the fall, you can pick up a shotgun and go hunting.

Los Angeles is a terrible place, hot, poorly trafficked, and kids like to go on a rampage on their bikes, even the old men.

At MGM's near-humble request, the Huaxia Capital finally gave up on Paramount and turned around and began to buy MGM.

Paramount: *(*&convex('0??) Convex (&¥@!) ￥%

In this case, MGM really can't sell at a high price.

According to the general market valuation of MGM, it is about 7 billion US dollars, if the capital is rich and MGM is more reserved, 75~85 is not impossible.

But the price of $6.2 billion still makes many people feel incredible.

The delivery was very fast because the other party used cash and did not borrow a dime from the bank.

In mid-March 2017, a "big event" occurred in the Chinese entertainment industry and the Internet industry.

Jack Ma posted a movie poster on his personal Weibo, accompanied by the words "That night, that dream", confirming the previously rumored news that he was starring in a certain movie.

On March 13, 2017, Ahri Pictures released the ultimate poster of the movie "Attacking the Way".

It was even revealed that Jackma and the princess were singing together, which was simply inhumane.

Netizens have a lot of discussions about this.

Wow, dad is making his debut.

The mainstream media also rushed to report, and the content of the report certainly couldn't be that Jackma was rich and capricious, and found a group of kung fu stars to perform with him.

Rather, it is to promote traditional martial arts, traditional culture.

From the perspective of economics and public relations, professionals analyze how well Daddy Jack Ma's money is spent.

What a successful marketing campaign.

But ordinary people don't care about that.

Everyone is amazed at how much energy money has, and it is really not a joke that money can make ghosts grind.

There are many stars, and everyone usually thinks how tall they are.

But when it comes to capital, what they embody is just symbols.

It's better to beat Jason Stallone together in the sequel.

On March 14, 2017, Kleist announced on its official website that it had completed the acquisition and closing of MGM Pictures.

Walt?

Just kidding.

Tomorrow is 315, just to hit your fake.

Everyone hurried to MGM's official website to take a look, and found that there was nothing quietly.

And the news on Migo's side did not report on this.

Only the official website of Kleist has such information.

Well, there is a possibility that the official website has been hacked.

Lin Dong's mobile phone was almost blown up, and all acquaintances were looking for him to confirm.

He simply turned off the phone and asked Concubine Han to hold a press conference.

In the afternoon of the same day, the press conference was held, and Concubine Han appeared in front of the media with a few crooked nuts, and the reporters who rushed to make up the class today saw at a glance that these crooked nuts were MGM's senior management.

It's true!

Nana's, how to do the secret work, there is no rumor at all.

So, when exactly did they start the acquisition?

At least last year.

It took more than seven months for Yida to acquire Legendary Pictures.

"Hello everyone, I am the general manager of Kleist Meow House, and the chief strategy officer of the group's strategy department, Concubine Han, and I can ask questions now." Concubine Han sat in the C seat, as always, without much expression.

"Excuse me, your company announced that it has completed the acquisition of MGM Pictures, is it the MGM of Hollywood, is it a complete acquisition?"

Journalists who have grabbed the right to ask questions are eager to ask all the questions.

"Yes." Concubine Han was concise and to the point.

This means that all the questions you ask are true.

The reporters were confused for a moment, but the good professionalism made them react quickly.

"Excuse me, when did this acquisition happen, and what is the approximate purchase price?" The reporter continued to ask questions.

"What has happened recently, the purchase price is not convenient to disclose." Concubine Han said it, but she didn't say it.

How could this possibly satisfy the curiosity of the journalists.

But everyone can't help it, and the cat factory is not a listed company, so there is no obligation to disclose their finances at all.

"How is the cat factory going to run MGM?"

"This is Gary Barber, the former co-CEO of MGM and will become MGM CEO, and this is Mary Parent, who will continue to serve as the company's chief executive producer, and MGM will operate independently under the leadership of these two people." Concubine Han took the opportunity to introduce these two people who surrendered to sincerity.

Instead of sending people who are not very familiar with the business here to go over there, and those who are not familiar with the place are bullied.

It's better to use these two people first.

Mary Parente has a good level of business ability and is very self-motivated.

She has served as a producer on the Pacific Rim series, as well as the Revenant, among other productions.

And Gary Barber is no amateur either.

Since 1989, he has worked as a producer on about 22 films, including Robocop, Special Forces: Total Strike, Wanted, Impostor, and Memoirs of a Geisha.

What's more, he has a wide network of contacts in Hollywood, making it easy to help new companies get through every aspect.

At least, if the new company says that there are any directors or actors to make films, as long as Gary Barber is standing here, no one will worry about being put into sacks and sold to Huaxia.

Such two people, as long as they work hard and give them enough money, it is not difficult to toss something out.

Of course, there are some departments, and the cat factory will still send trustworthy people to take charge.
