Chapter 1237: Very good and powerful (37/64)
"Nbc Universal holds 80% of the shares and Vivendi holds 20% of the shares. Vivendi was originally a waterworks company in France. In 2001, it acquired Universal Film and Entertainment, hoping to build a leading global media and entertainment company. The giants, however, quickly fell into a dilemma due to excessive expansion.
In 2004, GE acquired 80% of Vivendi Universal Entertainment for $ 14 billion. NBC reorganized assets with Vivendi's Universal Studios and cable television networks to create NBC Universal.
Since then, NBC has more cable TV networks, and through package sales, it has increased its appeal to advertisers, and increased the room and cost for bargaining with cable companies.
nbc Universal's business includes nbc television and 10 television stations in the United States and 16 television stations under telemundo communications group. The above television stations occupy a total market share of 30% in the United States, Universal Pictures and four theme parks, and 24 such as cncc. Cable TV channels and six digital media.
The merger of General Electric and Vivendi Universal has enabled NBC Universal to have more cable and satellite channels in Europe and Asia, as well as Universal Studios and Universal Theme Parks, forming a super collection of 5,000 movies and 35,000 hours of TV programs. library. "
Listening to his own introduction, Andy is more and more interested in this ready-made media kingdom. As long as he can take control of the kingdom, carry out some operations, and finally complete the private ownership, then he will leap into and News Corporation, the era Warner goes hand in hand with the media giant.
If you can step up to the sky, who would like to start from scratch and slowly build up your strength to counterattack, after all, the market share is so large that it has long been divided up by these behemoths.
"Investigate and analyze GE's ceo Jeff Immelt. Before meeting, I want to know how to deal with this person. Also, I will conduct a more in-depth investigation of nbc Universal, I want to be clear Know the dilemmas and problems they face. "
Andy thought about it and said to the people in the think tank in the video, "I will depart for New York tomorrow."
"Understood, boss."
After ending the video connection, Andy sat on the boss chair and quietly thought about it. In recent years, Universal Pictures hasn't had any particularly famous "explosive" movies. Unlike Disney's "General Story" series and Warner Bros. "Harry Potter" series, Paramount is the same as "Transformers" series. After all, there was a "Quick Stimulus" that he also pried away.
This has made Universal Studios quite mundane throughout Hollywood in recent years. This also led to the fact that in the past many years in the competition of the six major Hollywood studios, Universal's performance was not very good, always lingering in the middle position.
Although compared with other major Hollywood studios, Universal Pictures' performance is not so bright, but this does not prevent Universal Pictures from being a movie company with annual box office profits of over US $ 100 million and a valuation close to US $ 10 billion. One of the biggest ones.
If you can really take the lead in nbc Universal, then the addition of Summit Entertainment and Weinstein Pictures will undoubtedly make Universal Pictures stronger.
Thinking of this, Andy began to think anxiously that once he became the master, the board of directors must definitely take the lead in the distribution of power. This is undoubtedly the president of Universal Pictures and the president of nbc. Becoming his own, Carl and the **** would naturally be stuffed into the board by him ...
Picking up the phone, Andy called Ceo Robert Freeman of Zenith Entertainment without telling him about his plans to acquire nbc Global. He just talked to each other and learned about Zenith Entertainment ’s recent and next level. Company arrangements and operations.
Robert Freman's talent in the film industry is undoubted. The former CEO of Paramount and the operation of a medium-sized film company are definitely in hand. Especially with abundant resources and sufficient funds, the current peak entertainment is completely complete. It is on the fast track of rapid development.
"Boss," Ghost Record "has entered the publicity period, and it will become our company's main feature film for Halloween this year ..."
"Well, if you can create a miracle, it depends on the propaganda. I have great expectations for this pseudo-documentary. I hope it can become our horror fist product. Don't save money on the publicity. After all, this film is For us, there is almost no cost at all. If the box office is hot, then start the second movie and try to create a gold-absorbing movie. "
Speaking of "Ghost Record", Andy is also very much looking forward to the box office miracle of this pseudo-documentary to be realized in his own hands, whether it is the superb vision of Carl's goods, or the rise of peak entertainment will be the most A thick stroke.
After ending the call, Andy began to consider the personnel arrangements and power structure after joining the host nbc Universal in advance. Although it was a bit unmarried, it was too anxious to name the child. NBC Global also needs to prepare for the next group integration.
At night, in the bedroom with ambiguous lights, two elongated and distorted shadows are entangled.
"Do you really want to buy nbc Universal ?!"
"... How many times have you asked? Can you concentrate?"
Charlize wrapped his arms around Andy's neck with a wink and white glance. He had a strange red glow on his face, biting the corner of hun, and said with a trembling voice: "Aren't I shocked, oh ... ... "
"Shock Nima and let you be unfocused! See if I don't kill you ..."
In the morning of the next day, Andy kissed Laura's Bai Nen's face fiercely, kissed him again and looked rosy and slightly reluctant, and then took a helicopter to fly to the Palace of Versailles.
The team at the Little Palace of Versailles has been waiting for a long time. Andy didn't waste any more time. He sat in the car and the team drove away quickly to the airport.
On the airport's private tarmac, Andy came down from the car and saw Scarlett, with her hair tied, wearing a dark red vest, and a cowboy with hot edges, standing in front of the cabin door of the private jet.
Andy could not help but smile, quickly stepped onto the ladder, came to Scarlett, stretched out her arms around her waist, lowered her head and kissed her and smiled, "Have you ever visited? How is it?"
Scarlett walked into the cabin while holding Andy's bear waist, while raising her eyebrows and taunting: "The overall is not bad, but seeing the golden decorations can make people feel like upstarts, which is in line with The taste of the upstart!
Andy twitched at the corner of her mouth, shook her head and laughed. She hit her fatbuttok fiercely, in exchange for Scarlett's coquettish eyes, and sat in the seat, fastened her seat belt, and Andy laughed. Says: "Are you in touch with the campaign team of Auburn?"
"Well, this time when I return to New York, I will host one. After all, New York is my home field. The first one will be in New York. Inauguration ceremony. "Scarlett Qiao said with a calm smile on her face, raising an eyebrow to Andy.
Andy froze, and shook his head with a smile. "This guy is confident. Before the election is over, he will start to wave. Maybe he thought you were in love with him, haha."
Scarlett frowned at Andy with a smirk, and then said with a smile: "This is a common problem among your men. You always think you are right. If you look at you more, you narcissisticly think of you. It's the same as the dogs who sent Qing. "
Andy's mouth twitched. At this moment, the feeling of weightlessness came, but it soon became stable. He unfastened his seat belt, reached out and raised Scarlett's eyebrows and invited: "Now the dog invites you to visit Super Daiso, how is it? "
Scarlett smiled and put her hand on Andy's hand, and laughed with her cigarette voice: "Dogs are so good!"
"Wang Wang ..."
Andy picks up Scarlett, slaps her pigu while learning to bark twice, he laughs: "Then, next, the dog wants to ... you!"
"puff"
"You are such a bastard!" Scarlett scolded a little in anger.
