Chapter 1019: Target MGM United Artists!

Chapter 1019: Target MGM United Artists!

Yang Ming, Yuan Tianfan and eight employees of Future Capital are here to conduct analysis.

At 20th Century Fox Film Company, Yang Ming arrived late and had already been swallowed up by Murdoch in advance, so he naturally had no chance.

Disney Movie Company relies on Disney theme parks, which are the best among the eight major movie giants, and it is impossible to sell them.

MGM and United Artists have merged and are now MGM-United Artists.

However, MGM-United Artists is currently suffering the worst among these giants. It has been in a state of loss, and owner Kerkorian has no intention of running it.

The rest of Columbia Pictures, Universal Pictures, Warner Bros., and Paramount are all in similar situations.

It’s not that it can’t be acquired, it’s just that the price to pay is much higher.

Except these.

There are also countless small studios and independent studios in Hollywood. Among them, medium-sized independent studios such as Lionsgate, Relativity Media, Weinstein Pictures, and Plan B mainly produce small and medium-cost feature films.

Although about 80% of the entire North American box office is divided up by the "Big Eight", judging from historical data, the remaining 13% to 15% of the box office belongs to these medium-sized independent studios, and the remaining large number of small studios , then there is only about 2% of the market.

There is another very famous one.

M Country Dream Factory.

However, it is not established yet.

DreamWorks Studio was founded in October 1994. The three founders are Steven Spielberg, Jeffrey Katzenberg and David Geffen.

DreamWorks' products include movies, cartoons, television programs, home video entertainment, records, books, toys and consumer products.

However, it is a pity that DreamWorks has not been established yet, which is also an opportunity for Yang Ming.

In addition to these traditional film companies.

There is another one that is even more special and will be one of the film giants of Country M in the future.

M country Netflix, also known as Netflix.

The emergence of Netflix is ​​actually not only related to the DVD and Blu-ray disc rental business, but also has a lot to do with the rapid development of the Internet later.

At this time, Yang Ming's main focus is on the eight traditional Hollywood giants.

"Based on your analysis, it seems that acquiring MGM-United Artists is the most appropriate right now."

In fact, swallowing up MGM-United Artists would be equivalent to swallowing up two of the eight giants.

Moreover, if the time is right and Yang Ming swallows up Columbia Pictures, he will not be able to give Toyo or Sony another chance.

As for movies like Warner Bros., Paramount, or Universal, there is no chance.

At the right time, it is not impossible to swallow it directly.

"The boss is indeed MGM--United Artists."

Yuan Tianfan and eight other Future Capital employees believed that it was most appropriate to simply acquire this film company.

"Then let's go to this one."

Yuan Tianfan left with them.

Yang Ming is still in the study.

Yang Ming knew that the acquisition of these Hollywood film giants was not only because of country M, but also the global film market.

It also involves theme parks.

Why Disney is so successful is actually inseparable from theme parks, that is, IP value.

Historically, Yang Ming knew that Disney and Universal's theme parks were very successful around the world, especially Disney's annual rolls around the world.

Now, Yang Ming has taken over Marvel Comics.

Yang Ming knew that in addition to Marvel Studios, a comic book company, they could also develop those IPs with MGM-United Artists.

In addition, there are more and more movie IPs, which are very valuable.

Even if Yang Ming no longer wants it in the future, it is not impossible to sell it.

However, Yang Ming knew that in the future, it would be normal for a global movie box office to cost more than a billion dollars, or even several billion dollars.

Although he may not be able to remember many movies at the moment, Yang Ming is still deeply impressed by some Hollywood movies that are popular at the global box office.

. . .

"Sir, you want to acquire a Hollywood movie company?"

Yang Ming and Park Jinhui were walking outside with her before they had lunch. Park Jinhui asked in surprise.

Some time ago, while traveling to New York, Park Jin Hye learned that Empire Group had just spent $8.5 million to acquire the rights to Marvel Comics. In this day and age, $8.5 million is a huge amount of money.

Park Jin-hye knew that even Goryeo's chaebols could not easily get this amount of money.

However, now the Imperial Group can easily use this money to acquire Marvel Comics.

Unexpectedly, when we arrived in Los Angeles, the Empire Group acquired it again.

This is still a movie giant acquiring Hollywood. I don’t know how much it will cost.

"good."

At this time, Park Jinhui was really getting more and more surprised.

When she was in Xiangjiang, she knew that the Imperial Group was very rich and could be said to be as rich as the country, but she didn't know exactly how much money it had.

"Sir, how much will it cost to acquire this time?"

"My estimate is more than a billion dollars."

More than a billion dollars?

Doesn’t that mean tens of billions of Hong Kong dollars will be spent?

Park Jin Hye was shocked again.

"Money begets money. If the money doesn't move, no matter how much money is left there, it will be dead money."

At this time, Yang Ming and Imperial Group's income came from many places.

He knew that when the properties in Dongyang were sold, the Imperial Group would have more money, so it would be better to use the money to buy properties that he thought were feasible at low prices.

Park Jin-hye was thoughtful.

During this time, she has been following Yang Ming.

In addition to learning a lot, my relationship with Yang Ming has also become much closer.

She still felt different with Yang Ming.

"Shopping malls are like battlefields. Many times, if you are not careful, suitable investment opportunities will disappear."

Yang Ming felt that it was a pity that 20th Century Fox Film Company was acquired by Murdoch at a low price.

However, there are still many movie giants here in Hollywood.

For example, the MGM-United Artists Film Company that the Imperial Group wanted to acquire this time, Yang Ming knew, was no worse than 20th Century Fox Film Company.

The most important thing is to see how well these film companies are managed after acquisition.

"Sir, I really want to study with you more." Park Jinhui said.

"After returning to Xiangjiang this time, you will go back to Korea."

Park Jin-hye can't stay with him for a long time. Goryeo still has to go back to lay out the market.

. . .

The next few days.

Yuan Tianfan, the eight employees of Future Capital, and even He Chaoluo and Lin Xiuzhi have already begun to acquire MGM-United Artists Film Company.

When Yuan Tianfan came back to see Yang Ming.

"Boss, Kerkorian, the major shareholder of MGM-United Artists. I met with him. He seemed to be interested in the Empire Group's acquisition of MGM-United Artists. However, He wants to meet you in Las Vegas.”

Las Vegas?

This world-famous gambling city may be even more famous than Haojiang.

Yang Ming actually went there in his previous life.

As for why Kerkorian wanted to meet him there?

Yang Ming didn't know.
