Chapter 500: Have no good intentions
Andy saw that the other party did not lose his squareness because of anger, but instead determined that he was determined to acquire Marvel Entertainment. He couldn't help sighing that these old foxes were so foolish there. He originally hoped to provoke Ike's anger and let Feeling shame, he went back to upgrade the internal fight and directly knocked off Kevin Page, so that Marvel's contradiction was completely intensified.
Now it seems that there is not much hope. The eo may not have the courage to tear his face with the old guy of Stan Lee.
"The 1980s were the golden age when dc and Warner ruled the film market. The sequel to" Batman "and" Superman "came out one after another.
Marvel, on the other hand, could only watch the old friend dc follow Warner to eat fragrant and spicy food, holding a large number of copyrights in his hands but suffering from not leaving home. It was difficult to sell the copyright but no one was willing to take it.
Your soul character Stan Lee is an ambitious resident in Hollywood. The "Dr. Strange" in 1978 and the "Hulk" in 1990 were all made into TV movies. The "Captain America" in 1979 went directly to the home video market. . 1986's "The Fallen Gods" starred in the "Guardians of the Galaxy" egg "Howard Duck", the film turned out to be Marvel since the 1944 edition of "Captain America" was released in the second film.
In 1994, the "Fantastic Four" due to the expiration of the copyright in Constantine Films, it could only rush to produce a low-cost science-fiction b-level film. In the end, the film was released in theaters like other Marvel movies. No chances were caught.
In the new century, you can only watch the sales of X-Men. The hot box office of "Spider-Man", you can only share a bit of poor copyright fees, your heart is imbalanced, and time is wasted in court again and again on. "
Andy's unforgettable ability was demonstrated at this moment, and at an unhurried pace, he began to talk about Marvel's failures all the time, making Ike's face even harder to look at.
"Haha ..." Ike laughed angrily, watching Andy Smith showing no grace, pierced his heart with a sharp arrow, and sneered: "You said nothing more than to tell me , Marvel has failed, but what about it? Our IP rights are still the most valuable, young people, these tricks of you are not very useful, suppress the price ... hehe "
Ike shook his head and smiled, his mouth turned up, and with a touch of ridicule and commercial negotiation, Andy was still tender.
Andy was not unhappy, but spread his hand with a smile and shrugged, "Yeah, if it wasn't for the value of the copyright IP, I wouldn't waste time here."
Andy's words made Ike's teeth gritted, but the next paragraph made Aike's immediacy, but fell into silence.
"Hollywood has an unwritten rule of" subordination "towards subcultures. Producers are often Jewish and wealthy handsome men, so they will not study the fans' willingness to watch movies.
Especially for Marvel, watching their own "Super Heroes", "Fantastic Four" and "Evil Knight" has been changed by the producers for thousands of years, and the world views of "Spider-Man" and "X-Men" have also been changed. Getting farther and farther from their own ideas.
You definitely want to take the lead in filming, but unfortunately you do n’t have the money, then you will desperately use the copyright mortgage to go gambling, you will be happy to win, and you will need another decade to hide in the corner and dying. Shareholders can only mold with resources that they consider extremely precious.
Hundreds of millions of dollars of investment, shooting dominance, haha. The problem is that your board has nothing to do with the movie! I also want to ask you, why did you shake the Hollywood pattern that has long been dominated by comedies, action, science fiction, and love genres! "
Andy looked at Ike, whose expression on the face was a little bleak. He couldn't help but chuckle his lips, and did not suppress the pride of the other side. The money he bought could not be spent, and he also dug a deep hole in front. Waiting for each other.
Kevin Page will inevitably require the copyright of the superhero to be mortgaged again to take a loan to make movies, and take the road of self-production and self-sale. What Andy hopes is to let Aike, the largest individual shareholder and the group's ceo, preconceive this The way to do it is to gamble desperately, in the interest of their shareholders.
Involving interests, these shareholders will never compromise. Even if they compromise, they will continue to fight for the right to speak. Without fighting, why did Andy Smith buy Marvel at a suitable price, and came as a savior? New Marvel.
Fight, I support you!
Andy said silently in his heart to the icy complexion.
"Young man, even if what you said makes sense, but don't you still want to buy Marvel? It's just a matter of price. These can be discussed slowly. I'm just curious. Since you have studied so thoroughly, then you have Is there a way to solve these problems? "
Andy couldn't help but pout his mouth. The old guy still didn't forget to dig a hole for himself, he wanted to set his words, huh, huh, so he didn't say anything, but instead stretched out his fingers calmly and confidently and pointed at his head.
"It has created $ 5 billion in value!"
Aike's gaze was slightly fixed, and he smiled brightly. "Mr. Smith, I have to admire you. You are a very good young man. I have a deep feeling for Marvel. From the day I sat on EO, I hope it can be in me It's big on my hands, but unfortunately ... can I call you Andy? "
Seeing Andy nodding his hands with a smile, he didn't care, and then said, "Andy, if you really want to acquire Marvel, I can help you to collect shares on the board, but I have a request. Don't kick me out, otherwise I don't think you will succeed. "
"Oh, you worry too much, let ’s not buy or buy. Even if I finally decide to buy, it succeeds. Except for the pesky ambitionist, I do n’t think there will be any changes in Marvel personnel. Of course, the strategic layout It's all here! "
Andy grinned and said, pointing to his head.
Ike also knows that the boy in front of him is not foolish. "So, how much money do you plan to buy for Marvel, you can always disclose it."
"Well, you can say, two billion dollars."
"No, no." Ike shook his head with a smile before he said Andy said, "This price is not attractive at all. We know that Marvel does not only have comics and movies, but also toy manufacturing , Various peripherals, sales networks, these groups of subsidiaries are not something that can be taken away for $ 2 billion. "
Andy pretended to be an indifferent showhand: "So, finally, I gave up on the advice of the think tank, because I was worried about your lion's big opening, but also the future profit strategy and the huge problems you have."
"Oh, if you ca n’t talk about the price, you can talk about it slowly. You will always find a price that is acceptable to both parties. There is one more thing. I want to ask, have you thought of Stan Lee?"
"Oh, Stan Lee is old, and I do n’t think he has any interest in power. The reason why he supports Kevin Page now is to see the hope of Marvel's rise from some of Kevin Page's ideas, but, Can Kevin Page match my strategic layout? "
Andy showed strong self-confidence and imposing, coupled with the impression that he has always left people and has never failed, it is extremely persuasive, and even Ike nodded unconsciously.
Well, Ike can't help secretly smiling, Nima, who knows what your strategic layout is.
However, looking at Andy Smith's success stories along the way, it seems that he will not talk about entertaining him.
"I will confirm the issue of your acquisition on the board of directors, help you bring the shares together, and then you can enter the negotiation stage to find a price that everyone can accept. What do you think?"
When Ike talked to himself, Andy couldn't help shaking his head and laughed. He wanted to continue flickering and was interrupted directly by Ike. "Everyone is a smart person. Do n’t use some extra tricks. To be honest, for a family Listed companies, the shares are too fragmented and inefficient, I have been aware of this problem for a long time. Unfortunately, I do n’t have the funds to complete the acquisition. Your appearance may be the opportunity for Marvel to truly rise. I am willing to help you in my lifetime. See Marvel pain flat dc! "
