01539 Two-way dealers
With a 30% stake in Marina's Restaurant, Chen finally agreed to the $700 million deal.
Of course, this money is not paid in full immediately.
After signing the contract, Chen Cao immediately transferred the first $150 million to Nafa Donn, and then transferred the remaining $550 million to Nafa Donn over a period of three months.
This money can first allow Nafa Donn to solve his urgent needs, so that he will not be hacked to death while walking on the main road.
But in the next three months, Chen Cao will need to raise $550 million.
......
As soon as Chen Cao returned home, he received a strange phone call.
"Hey, are you Mr. Zhao Chen?"
"I am, who are you?"
"I'm the Executive Director of DSN Films, and my name is Mark Boning. ”
"Hello, Mr. Mark, is there anything wrong?"
"Mr. Chen, I heard that you made a deal with Nafa Donn today and bought all the copyrights in his hands. ”
"Mr. Mark, you're really well informed. Chen Cao had long expected that the other party would take the initiative to find him.
However, Chen Cao didn't expect the other party's speed to be so fast.
Less than two hours after he signed his contract with Nafa Towne, DSN Pictures already knew the news.
Mark Bonin said in a calm tone: "Mr. Chen, do you know that it is very immoral for you to do this?"
DSN has been preparing for half a year for the copyright of those films.
Even Nafa Donn's debt crisis has DSN.
Now I saw that it was about to be harvested, but I didn't expect to be cut off at a critical moment.
If you are any other person, you will not feel happy.
"Uh...... Mr. Mark, am I breaking any law?" Chen Cao sneered.
"Mr. Chen, I want you to figure out what kind of opponent you are facing. Mark Boning threatened.
Snort –
Chen Cao laughed with a bit of sarcasm.
It is true that he and DSN are not at the same level, but DSN Film Company and DSN Media Company are not the same system, and Chen Cao and DSN Film Company and DSN Media Company are not in the same industry, Chen Cao is not afraid of them at all.
Just like Hollywood is not afraid of Wall Street's financial giants.
Even if the two sides are not on the same level, they have their own rules in different industries.
Chen Cao is now in the beer industry, and he dare not say that he is invincible in the world, at least he is also the top.
What does DSN Films do to pinch him?
Even if the DSN media company behind him makes a move, it will not take him seriously.
"Mr. Mark, if you are here to ask the master, I'm afraid we won't be able to talk any further. Chen Cao said indifferently.
Mark Bonin also used his connections to check Chen Cao's background, but he didn't know the details.
I only know that Chen Cao is very rich, and the bank's credit rating is the highest, even higher than him.
Mark Bonin is just a senior professional manager, and Chen Cao's personal wealth is not comparable to him.
This made it very difficult for Marc Boning.
DSN Films is able to run amok in Hollywood, and even with other collaborators, they are acting in a domineering manner.
But once he leaves Hollywood, then he is helpless.
After all, DSN Films is just a film company, not an underworld force.
But now the copyrights of two series of films with great potential are in the hands of Chen Cao.
This makes DSN Films even more helpless.
Especially "Thief", now DSN Films is already preparing for the seventh part, with an upfront investment of more than $30 million.
Originally, Mark Bonin wanted to wait until he got the copyright of "Thief", so he immediately started preparing for filming.
But now, Nafa Donn has sold the rights to someone else.
In other words, Chen Cao's right to speak in this series is the same as that of DSN Film Company.
As long as Chen Cao does not agree to shoot, then this series of movies cannot be filmed.
Not only did the $30 million invested in advance go down the drain, but even 50% of the copyright in their hands had to be smashed in their hands.
The loss is too great for even he, the executive director, to bear the consequences.
The domineering words and deeds just now are actually a tentative means of Mark Boning.
"Mr. Chen, tell me, what do you want?"
"I'm a businessman, and the first thing I want to make sure is that my interests are not violated. Chen Cao said calmly.
"Mr. Chen, do you want to invest in our films? I can use my power to give you this entry qualification. ”
"Hehe......" Chen Cao smiled.
Hollywood is a place where people eat people and don't spit out bones.
Even if an outsider like Chen Cao enters the arena, there are no bones left to be eaten.
Hollywood has Hollywood rules, even if it is a profitable movie, the studio can make the accounts loss.
Chen Cao's desire to get money from Hollywood is simply whimsical.
Chen Cao never thought of making money from this.
Chen Cao's intention to buy the copyright was to be a second-hand dealer and make a quick buck.
Mark Bonin secretly scolded, sure enough, rich people are not easy to fool.
"Mr. Chen, sell the copyright in your hand to our company, just because our company owes you a favor. ”
QNM's favor, the words that come out of the mouths of the top executives of large companies, are similar to farts.
Chen Cao's brain is in water, so he will inherit this favor.
"Mr. Mark, let's talk a little bit practical, you make a price, if the price is right, then the copyright is yours. ”
"For $400 million, I only need 50% of the rights to the Thief series. ”
"Goodbye. Chen Cao hung up the phone directly.
This thing is taking itself as the wronged leader, right?
Even if he rots the copyright in his hands, Chen Cao will not sell the copyright at a loss.
Mark Boning's face was a little ugly, and he looked at the phone that had been blinded.
The price just now was originally a tentative offer.
In fact, he knew the exact price at which Chen Cao bought the rights, because Nafa Tangen had no intention of hiding it.
It's just that he didn't expect Chen Cao to hang up the phone so decisively.
Mark Bonin dialed Chen Cao again.
"Mr. Chen, we can talk about it again. ”
"The copyright of "Thief", 600 million US dollars, not a penny less, if you don't accept it, then I'd rather let the copyright rot in my hands. ”
"Mr. Chen, $600 million is simply inflated, we can jointly invest in the production ......"
"I'm sorry, I don't have any confidence in your credit, maybe the movie money I invested, you can make my money go down the drain with a different trick, why should I trust you?"
For example, DSN Films only needs to get a bill, and the original production cost is 100 million US dollars, but he directly quotes a production cost of 300 million US dollars, and he has nothing to do.
