Chapter 2033 Share Redistribution

Listening to Xiao Qi's plan, the eyes of the two lit up.

Compared with the real ownership of copyright, investment rights and priority rights are of course much worse!

"But will they agree?" Sam still lacked confidence.

"Let's talk, how do you know if you don't talk about it?" Xiao Qi laughed, "What's more, after selling the copyright, we don't have a film company in our hands. Why don't we just ask them to produce? They can make a lot of money from the production, This also means that Paramount has not left these hero series!"

David was obviously also moved. After a moment of silence, he nodded seriously: "Then, let's talk again!"

It's true that he is a rich second generation, but he is a smart rich second generation. He will only spare no expense on the career he likes, and he will never spend a lot of money on pleasure.

He was just too excited before, thinking that Paramount can give these benefits, that is the best result, he can not only fulfill his childhood wish, but also become the most beautiful person in Hollywood, and also make money, what a stroke Three wins!

But he never thought of the principle of reciprocity in negotiations.

I always feel that Paramount is one of the seven major film companies in Hollywood, a giant, and I am just an investor. It is a kind of luck that they can make so much concessions.

But the fact is that in the context of this financial crisis, Paramount, a giant, is already on the verge of collapse, but he, an investor, has a lot of money in his hand, and he can completely become Paramount's life-saving straw.

Sam is simpler, he knows that David has experience in Hollywood, he was just learning from him, but after knowing that Xiao Qi is also investing in David's studio, he also wants to come to Rongcheng with shamelessness, and Xiao Qi Discussing the matter of investment, he also bought a stake in David's studio by the way.

"One more thing." David took a sip of his tea and said, "Sam wants to join our studio. And if we really want to reach an agreement with Paramount, 1.45 billion US dollars, our Not enough money. Time to renegotiate the shares!"

"What do you think?" Xiao Qi asked without answering.

"1.45 billion is an astronomical figure. My father will give me another 200 million dollars at most. It is impossible to give me the rest." David said honestly.

"My money is less, my father only gave me 100 million US dollars, I mainly follow and learn." Sam said in a dazed way, 100 million US dollars is a lot to others, but in front of Xiao Qi and David , the money is a little too little.

"Calculate, I originally invested 300 million. Adding 200 million is 500 million US dollars, and Sam 100 million... In addition to our operating needs, you have to invest at least another 800 million US dollars. Are you willing to add more?" David asked road.

"Add more!" Xiao Qi nodded, "I will give a total of 1 billion US dollars, but the owner of the shares will be changed, and all will be given to Little Taylor."

"Wow..."

Sam compared his thumbs, "Xiao Qi, you are so bold!"

"Nonsense, he made Miss Swift's belly bigger. If you don't marry him, you will naturally have to pay more!" David laughed.

"Miss Swift is only 18 years old, right? You are only 21 years old, and you are going to have a child so soon... The mentality of you Chinese people is really strange." Sam also laughed: "I am not going to get married until I am thirty. It must be after the age of 35 to have a child."

David agreed with Sam's words very much, but he didn't forget the business. "The total capital of David's studio is 1.6 billion US dollars. According to the investment ratio, Xiao Qi is 62.5%, Sam is 6.25%, and I am 31.25%. Now that the number of shareholders has increased, I am not the first shareholder. I think The name of the studio can also be changed."

"How about I propose a Friendship Studio?" Sam suggested. "We're all friends. It's fun to start a business together, and it symbolizes that we're always going to be friends!"

"I think it's good." Xiao Qi has no objection to these. Taylor Jr. also doesn't like to fight for such false names.

"That's it!"

David didn't have much opinion. In his heart, doing things and becoming a movie tycoon was the most important thing.

However, David didn't consider Xiao Qi's acquisition of Paramount, because such a huge film company involved too many things, and he didn't want to take care of it.

For the movies he likes, participating in investment, filming, release, etc. is what he likes to do.

He believes that Xiao Qi will not buy Paramount either. Although Paramount is so big and so beautiful, it is really not easy to make a movie. If it is not done well, it will lose money, and you don't know which one will lose money. This kind of Such a smart person like Xiao Qi naturally wouldn't want to experience the tormenting days.

David was really tempted by Xiao Qi's proposal.

He followed Xiao Qi's meaning and thought about it, 1.45 billion is such a huge number, it is almost 25% of the value of Paramount, so much money in exchange for so few things, it's really a bit of a loss.

He has already done calculations on how profitable the five series of movies "Transformers", "Mission: Impossible", "Iron Man", "Captain America" ​​and "Avengers" are. Something you can take out.

Although taking the opportunity to ask for the copyrights of these films is a bit of a danger, but the problem is that if they don't make a move, Paramount will go bankrupt like MGM, and these copyrights will be cheaper for others.

Between the company being sold off by Redstone and continuing to maintain the company with benefits, David believes that Paramount will definitely make the right choice.

Besides, David knew more than Xiao Qi.

The copyright of the above five super movies is very troublesome.

For example, "Iron Man" was sold to Disney by Marvel Animation a long time ago, and Paramount only obtained the production and distribution rights of 1 or 2 films, and it will return to Disney from the third film.

As for the "Mission: Impossible" series, half of the copyright is in the hands of Cruise, and Paramount only has half. When the time comes to shoot, we must discuss cooperation.

Considering the loss of the interests of these two series, David wondered if he could win the movie copyright of "Tomb Raider" to make up for his loss.

"I also remembered one thing, that is, David and I must start making money from now on." While David was thinking about it, Sam said seriously: "Buying the copyright is one thing, but investing in filming can't be done." No money, right? According to the production cost of these blockbuster films of 100 million to 200 million yuan, we need to prepare at least 500 million yuan before we can continue to rely on profits."

"You're right!" David came back to his senses, and sighed, "We're going to work hard, Xiao Qi is better! Just selling some shares and earning 93 billion US dollars makes people so jealous that they want to kidnap him." !"

"Don't be so pitiful, why don't you tell your father, if you don't want to, return the shares to me?" Xiao Qi spread his hands and said.

"Dream you!" David and Sam said in unison.

"Hahaha……"

The three looked at each other, and suddenly burst out laughing.

...

Sam and David really don't like to have fun. After talking about business, they just rested in Rongcheng for a day, then hurriedly got on the plane and flew back to the United States again.

Xiao Qi is rarely willing to do business with the rich second generation, but Sam and David are good people. Sam was a bit dandy before, but after a while of training by Branson, in just a few months, It became a lot calmer, and Xiao Qi had to lament that Branson really had a way of teaching children.

Xiao Qi originally planned to buy Disney's shares for little Taylor, but Joe's gang leader has never made a move, which made Xiao Qi a little helpless. It just so happens that several movies from Friendship Studio can make money and gain a great reputation. It is very helpful to consolidate little Taylor's status in the entertainment circle, at least it can make her music path go more smoothly.

Taylor is really a very naive little girl, she is not interested in all the fame and fortune, Xiao Qi is the most important person in her life, besides that is music.

But the music circle is not much simpler than the movie circle. If there is no strong force to protect her, with little Taylor's simple character, sooner or later she will be run on, framed, and fall into the abyss.

If there is such a huge strength behind her, with Sam and David to help little Taylor, then even if Xiao Qi cannot be in the United States all the time, she will not be afraid of others.

Of course, although Friendship Studio will be prosperous for more than ten years, it is just a rootless duckweed after all, so Xiao Qi plans to buy her about 5% of Disney shares, this is the real one that can stand forever capital.

However, after David's lobbying, Xiao Qi suddenly felt that there seemed to be another industry that was more suitable for little Taylor, suitable for little Taylor and his descendants to own.

That is the famous Marvel Comics!

All comic heroes in the United States basically come from Marvel Comics and DC Comics.

DC Comics has famous characters such as Superman, Batman, Wonder Woman, and The Flash, as well as superhero teams such as the Justice League and Teen Titans.

Marvel Comics also has Spider-Man, Iron Man, Captain America, Wolverine, etc., as well as superhero teams such as the Avengers, Fantastic Four, and X-Men.

The two are evenly matched, each occupying half of the country.

But DC Comics was acquired by Time Warner as early as 1969, and it has been mastered by Time Warner for almost 40 years. It is impossible for Time Warner to let go.

Marvel Comics is different, they have always insisted on operating on their own, but over the years their stalls have spread too much and their development has been too fast, so life has not been easy recently.

A series of superheroes appeared on the screen after IMAX and 3D technology matured and promoted, that is, around 2009 and 2010. Disney was also lucky and bought Marvel at the end of 2009.

Prior to this, Marvel Comics hadn't shown its huge ability to attract money.

It's just throwing money at it, Xiao Qi has money anyway.

As long as the strategy is right, it is definitely not difficult for Marvel comics to change their surname to Swift! (to be continued ~^~)
