American Fortune Life

Chapter 173: Copyright for Shares, Who Loses and Who Earns?

(Thank you all very much! There's an author saying!

Andy remembers vividly that the Four Songs of Twilight City of Past Life rolled away $2.4 billion of the total global box office, except Twilight. Dawn has invested more than 100 million dollars in the last two, and each of the previous ones cost only 67 million, which is a 10,000,000 profit deal.

Not to mention Andy's Hunger Games, also represented by Little Big Boy, 2.96 billion global total box office, which was achieved in a third box office slump.

Two series of global box offices reached $5.5 billion, and to be honest, this is definitely two money shaking trees. Robert, the top entertainer, relies on years of experience to look forward to the future of the two novel adaptation films. There are still some concerns about the movie box office.

Andy knew the amount of the box office, how could he easily sell the money printer, don't even think about it, but let him go to a movie company, play for himself, to be honest, Andy didn't think, the movie industry, money alone can't play, a hundred years of industry, there are too many cats in it, the coal owners of the previous dynasty with cash to invest in the movie, it was the death of a pit to live.

The safest way to do this is to take the nest, especially if it's a movie company that's going to grow well in the foreseeable future. It's built for Andy, almost without too much effort. Just squeeze out the two shareholders in the company when it comes in '08, and you can complete the merger of peak entertainment.

These thoughts Andy had taken into account before, so he didn't respond positively to Robert Fredman's query, and he was still smiling: “Mr. Fredman, you should know very well that the true value of these two IPs, although I don't know much about the film industry, I also like watching movies, some famous IP films are in the hands of six big players, and each one of them is full of money, and I'm sure you should also understand my terms of cooperation with Warner on" Dream Space, "but I'm going to tell you that the two series of IPs are different from Dream Theft because I believe that once any film company should have both series at the same time, at least not have to worry about profitability for the next 10 years, what conditions should I mention to be satisfied? ”

“This...” Robert Fremann couldn't really answer for a moment, and he heard Andy saying, "Don't use the terms of his partnership with Warner to talk to him. After all, the dream space is just a movie, and these two IPs are two series movies, and the value of a good series of movies is the treasure on the bottom of a chest that no movie company would sell.

Just like McGomey, it's almost bankrupt. If you can't afford it, your last attempt will be to make money to shoot "007". This is the existence of life-saving straw. How can you transfer it to them for a little success in the box office?

Robert Fredman brought two people who were also in the water. They could be brought here by Robert, and naturally they were also the best talent in the film industry. Andy's words were not hard to understand, but they now regret that they didn't buy the copyright of Twilight City at a high price. Instead, they let a nasty guy in front of them cut off his moustache, and now it's not entirely up to this young man's face.

Well, they can totally give up, nobody's forcing them, can't they, but, you know, it's already been missed once, missed a second time, watching other movie companies make a lot of money, and then say, "If we try harder, maybe we're the ones making money now!"

Everyone in Hollywood understands one thing, what matters most in Hollywood is opportunity!

There are no regret pills in the world to buy, and once the opportunity is missed, there are two opposite ends to fate.

Robert Fredman looked deeply at the young face, smiling all the time, and he seemed to wonder, not that Andy didn't want to copyright, but that he was too ambitious to satisfy his appetite with some cash and a few percentage points.

“Our Peak Entertainment is willing to bid $10 million for the adaptation rights of two series of novels plus 20% of the global total box office share! ”

Andy had a gleam in his eyes, and although the cash was a little small, the 20% share of the box office had caught up with Tom Cruise's treatment of "Spy in the Disk," and it had to be said that Robert Fredman was very sincere, and if Andy hadn't thought about their company, he might have said yes.

Smiling and shaking his head, Andy couldn't help but say: “It's tempting, but it's not what I wanted. I could totally spend a little money on a movie company myself, and invest in one of the six biggest movie companies for distribution. Although I made a little less money, it's more than 20% of what you're proposing. At least I still have the copyright, and all kinds of surroundings, DVDs, and so on, and the profits will be huge and remarkable! ”

Rob listened to Andy's narrative and his pupils shrunk. He really understood Andy's idea now. He was trying to trade the copyright of two novels for shares in the company. It was a mystery. Isn't he crazy that he really had to buy these two IPs at the peak?

Though Robert thought of despising Andy, the look on Andy's face became less friendly, but the expression on his face didn't change much, seriously confirming: "What does Mr. Smith mean, you want to invest in yourself? ”

Andy seemed to smile and look at Robert Freman in front of him, JING was brilliant, otherwise he would no longer be able to become CEO of Paramount in his 40s, and now he is CEO of Peak Entertainment, to say that he can't guess his true purpose and that he doesn't believe in killing Andy, so he asked, which means that the other party doesn't like copyrights for shares.

Andy wasn't discouraged, and this was his temporary start, and even if it didn't work out, he really went to acquire a movie company and dig up a good CEO, just because he had enough scripts and novels to support a good movie company, only then he would spend a lot of money on JING, which was the root reason he prioritized the Jiangzheng Nest project.

When Andy figured it out, he laughed casually, took a sip of the coffee cup and said: “With this in mind, of course, my best hope is to find a good movie company to work with, because I don't know anything about the movie industry after all, in order to protect my interests, my condition is to become a shareholder of the cooperative company, if the company is excellent, I can even invest additional funds. After all, it takes a lot of JING to run a new movie company, and most importantly, my career is not focused on the movie industry. ”

Just after Andy's voice went down, Robert Fredman looked at each other with a dramatic change of face, and now everyone understands Andy's condition and can't say how harsh it is, just incredible.

Well, not surprisingly, peak entertainment now has a market value of only a few hundred million dollars. If you really want to convert it into money to measure investment, Andy really has a lot of IP value, but the problem is that the three shareholders of peak entertainment are not bad money owners. They invest in movies to open up new profits, and if not, they won't blindly invest in big production in the future. They owe the bank a butt debt, which was eventually annexed by Lion Gate Film Industry with more than 400 million dollar knives, which is just what losers can do.

With peak entertainment now in its infancy, how could it possibly agree to Andy's request for a share-for-share Lion Big Talk?

They think Andy Lion said something big, Andy doesn't think so. 5.5 billion is the future. He feels like he's buying and selling for money now, but know that the first edition of Twilight City was released in 2008, and by then, the peak entertainment may belong to someone else!
