Chapter 823: Falling in Love with a Lion's Head (Asking for Recommendation Votes)
After the meeting, the senior management of the cat factory also arranged a dinner.
Gary Barber and Mary Parente also met with the top brass of other cat factories, and most of them came.
They found that not all cat factory executives were young.
Wang Kuo, who is in charge of Meow Claw, and Sun Moyu, who is in charge of Meow Core, look young, but they are not as old as him.
At the age of sixty, he is already about to retire.
Gary Barber was warmly welcomed to the senior level of the Roundtable, and although Mary Parente had the privilege of being present, her position was not enough.
There's nothing to complain about.
The 30 billion new energy project, Liu Xia also failed to squeeze in.
This made Mary Parentt disappointed at the same time, but also ignited a fighting spirit.
But she was soon drawn to the food again.
"In the future, we can get a canteen at MGM and send some chefs over." Chen Xiaoman is in charge of logistics, and he feels sorry for those people who are going to be transferred to Miguo.
"Oh, that's so thankful." Gary Barber was moved to tears.
The kitchen master asked them about their tastes, and Gary Barber had been suffering from toothache due to the recent stress.
The master chef prepared several soft and delicious dishes for him.
I'm going to cry when it's delicious.
He really couldn't understand why the food cooked in a small cafeteria was even more delicious than the top restaurants he ate in Chinatown.
The treatment of the cat factory is really good.
Thinking about it this way, it seems that there is nothing unacceptable to replace the lion's head.
Oh yes, he also saw a dish at the dinner table, called Lion's Head, and at first, he sadly thought that it was the cat factory showing the posture of a winner.
Look, we cut off the head of the lion of the country.
It is a kind of martial arts.
But when he ate one, he found that the lion's head was actually very delicious.
At this moment, he decided to fall in love with the lion's head dish.
"In fact, cultural prejudice is universal, we don't know the United States, so we stereotypically think that the rice crackers eat KFC all day long, and the diet is monotonous and boring, and the United States does not understand us, so they think that everything we eat is thrown into the pot to cook, how long has Mr. Barber not been in China?" Pei Qianlong asked while eating.
"If you do the math, it's already 2003, when Jack and I were making movies in Shencheng, which is a great city."
"It is recommended that when you are fine, you can take a walk around Huaxia and learn about this Guo Jia, and we will send someone to arrange everything." Pei Qianlong said.
"Very happy to ......"
Pei Qianlong always remembered Mr. Lin's concept of cultural export, and vowed to help Mr. Lin realize this belief in loving businessmen.
Then, it is very necessary for the executor to understand Huaxia.
Kleist's acquisition of MGM did not become a target for 315's anti-counterfeiting.
Because, with the convening of the press conference, MGM officially made an announcement, and also released a trailer for a documentary produced by Kleist, and all rumors were self-defeating.
It's a real hammer.
After Gary Barber and Mary Parente returned to Mego, Mary Parente took the stage to hold a press conference there.
She focused on why she chose ChinaAMC.
Of course, the reason can't be that we can't sell it, so if there is one that can be bought, we should hurry up and seize it.
She described to reporters the bright prospects of the combination of Hollywood and the Chinese market, and called the acquisition an epoch-making leap for Hollywood.
And Gary Barber came out to entertain the Hollywood giants.
At the reception, he contacted them, talked about cooperation, and introduced to them what he had seen and heard during his trip to China.
MGM and Gary Barber are very well connected.
They collaborated with Warner on "The Hobbit", with Sony on "007", Universal often helped MGM with distributions, Lionsgate even almost merged with MGM, and Paramount was a comrade-in-arms for many years.
As for Disney......
MGM has lent the rights to the cat and mouse to Disney, but there has been a lot of unpleasantness between them.
But now it's clear that there are no problems, and Disney and MGM's dads are very happy to work together.
After the distribution channel of the cat factory, Disney's "Zootopia" last year won nearly $300 million at the box office in China.
It's still in the honeymoon phase.
When Gary Barber said that Huaxia's father gave them 3.8 billion as operating capital, the other giants almost cried with envy.
They all looked down on MGM.
MGM thinks that Legendary Pictures is a second-rate film company, but in the eyes of the new six majors, it is not a second-rate film company.
It's just that because of the past feelings, I reluctantly admit that we are a circle.
Now, MGM has actually sold itself to a Huaxia Capital.
Cheap!
They were even more despised.
No one would have imagined that the father of the owner of the family was so generous.
Among them, the one who felt it the most was Paramount.
They felt that Gary Barber's smile was too glaring, and it made their hearts go through like knives.
This was supposed to be their chance.
If 3.8 billion can be used to make movies, Paramount will definitely be able to regain its glory.
Gary Barber's purpose in holding this reception is to establish MGM's Hollywood status on the one hand, and on the other hand, to cooperate with other major companies with the confidence of 3.8 billion US dollars.
Don't be embarrassed by the broken movies that fooled the Chinese people before.
I want the ones you make the most money.
As for why we should give us a piece of the most profitable pie.
First, we have money.
Second, we have the best distribution channels in Huaxia, and if you want to make money, you have to count on us to help.
Thirdly, we would like to invite you to invest in Miaow.
Then the bigwigs were in an uproar.
Some of them talked a lot, and some started to call, even if some of the fathers who were worth hundreds of billions of dollars had already begun to sleep.
Hollywood's six major film companies all have a father who has a financier.
There are many things that they have no way to call the shots, and the film industry only has a market of tens of billions of dollars a year.
The first one Gary Barber said didn't appeal much to them.
If they are short of money, or want others to help share the risk, as long as the big IP in their hands reveals a little news, capital will immediately flock to them.
The second one is quite attractive.
The success of "Zootopia" and "Xinshu Mountain" made them realize the power of Kleist, a Chinese company.
If they could do more in this area, they wouldn't mind giving MGM a piece of the pie.
For example, "The Avengers", "Fast and Furious" or something, give a share of tens of millions of dollars to MGM.
Mainly the third one.
They really can't call the shots about this.
