Chapter 056: Winning Marvel (Asking for Collections and Recommending Votes)
"Count you kid interesting, okay, Marvel will be handed over to you, but you remember, Carl Icahn you must clear it out for me. ”
"No problem, there is no speculation opportunity here at Marvel, he will leave himself, if I am a major shareholder, if he doesn't leave, I will spend my life, spend my money without earning, and spend it until he vomits blood and dies." ”
"Okay, you're ruthless. And you're not honest, Marvel is your childhood dream, Marvel you didn't even watch it when you were a child. Your wish has come true, what is your next wish?"
"Is it worth buying Disney? It was also my childhood dream, and I used to watch cartoons when I was a kid. Why don't we buy him up?"
"It's too difficult. And if I go to buy it, the resistance will be even greater, and I have a bad reputation. And I like to pick and choose from flawed companies. Disney is now worth more than 50 billion yuan, which is too big to meet my selection criteria, and I can't eat it. Let's talk about these later, come, have a drink first, and congratulate you on joining Marvel. ”
"It's annoying. I said, "Old fellow, I feel like you're acting like Carl Icahn, like a master taught me." Why do you get along so badly?"
"It's because of the likeness that they repel each other so much. What will you do after Marvel?"
"The first step is to recover all the superhero IPs, and then to open up the two markets of Citigroup and Huaxia by investing heavily in a single film, I firmly believe that the Huaxia film market will grow to a terrifying height, so I have established a cinema chain in Huaxia. In this way, Marvel will have two markets, one of the largest in the world and one of the most potential markets in the world. I'm going to try to buy a studio, whether it's Universal or MGM, and if I can't do it, I'm going to scare Disney. ”
"Haha, good boy, I'm waiting to see your show. The two of us are quite compatible, do you have a girlfriend?"
"Yes, but I don't mind having one more relationship, do you always have a good introduction?"
"No, you're unruly. ”
"What rules are not rules, the strong establish rules, and the weak obey the rules. ”
"Who are you going to give Marvel to?"
"I'm going to go to Disney to poach Robert Iger to be the CEO of Marvel, since Disney acquired ABC, although Robert Iger's position has risen, but Disney has Michael Eisner, he will never have a chance to come out, well, if you want to reach the top, you have to wait at least ten years, but how old is he now, he will be 46 years old soon, this is really a sad story. ”
"He's been at Disney for so long, and in terms of personality, he shouldn't come out. I know him, he's also Jewish, and now he's the president of ABC's headquarters in New York, and his home is on Long Island, New York, and what's wrong with being 46, and by New Year's Day, I'm 54, so what?"
"Well, I agree, fifty years old is just the beginning, so I'm going to poach Robert Iger to take charge of Marvel. ”
"It's good, it's a pity that your Marvel landscape is too small, and Robert Iger won't come. ”
"Haha, who am I, the pattern is small, impossible, I am the best at drawing pies. Marvel's current pattern is small, but the future is limitless, and we will build our own ecosystem. Anything can be done in this world, as long as you have money. Of course, my current problem is lack of money, too short of money, I can't compare with you, you are a rich second generation, and there is a mine at home. I'm going to have to earn it on my own. So, Mr. Perelman, my Panda Capital is in dire need of funds, you can invest in me, and I promise you an average of 25% per annum. ”
"I just earned some money from you, and before I saw it, you were going to take it all for me. If I don't do it, I can earn it myself, 25% is nothing, and the private equity fund of that guy in Carl Icahn can reach 30%. ”
"Diversification is safe, why don't you introduce a few big customers? When I make more money, I will store it in our bank when I turn around, and you can make money lying down, think about it, are you excited?"
"Not excited. Didn't you say that I should be a small shareholder? Hmph, I do have some spare money in hand recently, and it is not impossible to invest in you, you mainly invest in the Internet, right, but I heard that the Internet bubble is very serious, you have to be careful, don't lose my money. ”
"It's impossible to lose money, and I'll protect you with all the gains. The dot-com bubble does exist, but I'm not worried about that. I have a company now, and there will be a few more waiting to be listed in the future, without a bubble, how can I make the company 100 billion market value. Old man, how much do you vote, it's not interesting to have less. ”
"Just $500 million. Tell me again, how do you build the ecosystem you just mentioned?"
"In fact, it is similar to your concept of industrial chain, which mainly refers to the upstream and downstream, which is relatively simple. The ecosystem mainly focuses on circular interaction and win-win cooperation, and the mutual relationship is also relatively complex. For example, Marvel, I want to consolidate its position in the comics industry, buy some competitors, and expand the scale. At the same time, I want to wait for the opportunity to buy big film companies, build new technology theaters, buy special effects companies, animation companies, establish brokerage companies, and so on. Citigroup has some regulations, such as theaters and film production can't do it at the same time, brokerage companies and producers can't do these at the same time, I will register different entities, or even completely separate, these are not problems. ”
"Do you really want to buy a big studio? MGM is the most likely, but he's almost rotten, followed by Universal, and Disney is the hardest. ”
"No matter who you receive, when I run a few companies to go public, there will be no shortage of money, and there will always be a suitable opportunity to appear. Michael Eisner is a tyrant, and the chances of Disney turmoil are still very high, and you can create opportunities without a chance. The world belongs only to proactive people like us. ”
At this meeting, Cang Yaozu was very satisfied, and Perelman was still very face-saving, not only handed over Marvel, but also invested 500 million US dollars in Cang Yaozu, which is not a small amount.
In the financial field, there are no absolute good people and no absolute evil people, such as Perelman and Carl Icahn can be said to be notorious in the investment world, but they are both investors with real talent and learning, otherwise they would not have accumulated a net worth of hundreds of millions.
Commercial banks in the United States are divided into two main categories: the first is the National Bank, which is a commercial bank registered with the federal government under the National Banking Act of 1863. Generally speaking, this type of bank is a very large and strong bank. The second largest group of banks are commercial banks registered with the state governments under the state's banking acts, generally known as state banks. This type of bank is small in size and is generally referred to as a state bank.
Whether it is a foreign bank opening a bank in the United States or a newly established bank in the United States, it must choose what level of institution to register with. The Golden State Bank Group is a state bank. Cang Yaozu hoped that Perelman could buy it, and then the two of them would each take what they needed.
