American Fortune Life
Chapter 481: Confrontation
Instead of losing sight of each other because of anger, Andy decided that he was determined to acquire Marvel Entertainment. He couldn't help but lament that these old foxes were so ignorant there. He also wanted to provoke Ike's anger, make him feel shamed, go back to escalating his infighting, spell out Kevin Peggy, and completely aggravate Marvel's contradiction.
Now, hopefully, the CEO may not have the courage to tear his face apart with Stanley.
“The 1980s were the golden years of DC and Warner's reign over the comic book market. The sequel to" Batman "Superman has one, and the stars of the running water come round and round.
On Marvel's side, he could only watch the old wrongdoer DC eat and drink spice with Warner, holding a large amount of copyright and suffering from not coming home. It was easy to sell the copyright, but nobody was willing to take it.
Your soul character Stan Lee is an ambitious resident of Hollywood, where "Dr. Strange" in 1978, "The Hulk" in 1990 were all filmed as television films, and "Captain America" in 1979 went directly to the home video market. "The Warrior of God" in 1986, starring “Howard Duck” in the Galaxy Guard Egg, was Marvel's second film since the 1944 edition of "Captain America."
The 1994 Wonder Four had to rush to produce a low-cost Sci-Fi B-rated film because of the expiration of the copyright in Constantine's hands, and eventually, like any other Marvel film, it didn't even get the chance to be shown on the estate.
In the new century, you can only watch the x-Men sale, Spider-Man's hot box office, you can only split the poor copyright fee a little bit, your mind is unbalanced, you waste all your time in a court of law. ”
Andy's unforgettable skill was demonstrated at this moment, and he began to make Ike's face look harder, as several Janes had said about Marvel's constant failure.
“Ha ha...” Ike laughed so hard, watching Andy Smith show no style at all, and stabbed him in the heart with a sledge arrow, he couldn't help laughing: “All you said was to tell me how much Marvel failed, but so what? Our IP copyright is still the most valuable, young man, and your tricks don't do much to suppress the price... Huh?”
Ike shook his head, curled his mouth, ridiculed, commercial bargaining, and Andy was a little softer.
Andy wasn't upset, but smiled and shrugged, "Yeah, I wouldn't be wasting my time here if it wasn't for the value of copyright IP. ”
Andy's words made Ike chew his teeth off, but the next sentence made Ike lose his temper, and he fell into silence.
“Hollywood has an unwritten rule about subculture -" de-origination, "and producers are often JING-minded, high-handed Jews who don't study fans' willingness to see.
Especially with Marvel, watching "Super Bold Man," "Wonder Four," and "The Evil Horseman" have been changed by the producers for a long time, and Spider-Man and X-Men's worldviews are getting further and further away from their ideas.
You must want to take ownership of the shooting, unfortunately you don't have the money, then you will be betting on copyright mortgages, gambling, winning all the joy, losing another 10 years to hide in the corner and struggle, and you shareholders, you can only mold yourself with resources you think are invaluable.
Hundreds of millions of dollars invested in shooting dominance, huh. The problem is that your board has nothing but to interfere in the affairs of the movie! I would also like to ask you why you have shaken the Hollywood landscape, which has long been dominated by comedy, action, science fiction and love movies! ”
Andy looked at Ike with a slightly ashamed expression on his face, his heart couldn't help but whisper, not suppressing each other's arrogance, and he couldn't afford to buy it himself. Likewise, he dug a deep hole in front of each other.
Kevin Paige will surely ask to mortgage the superhero's copyright again to make a movie and go on the road to self-selling, and Andy wants Ike, the biggest individual shareholder and CEO of the group, to pre-empt what he sees as a solitary gambling, gambling with the interests of their shareholders.
Interests are at stake, and these shareholders will never compromise, and even if they compromise, they will continue to struggle for a voice. Without struggle, how could Andy Smith acquire Marvel at the right price to come to New Marvel as a savior?
Fight, I support you!
Andy Mommer said across the hall from Ike, who was colorful.
“Young man, even if all this makes sense, don't you still want to buy Marvel? It's just a matter of price. You can talk about it slowly. I'm just curious, since you're so thoroughly researched, do you have a way to solve these problems? ”
Andy couldn't help but whisper, and the old guy still didn't forget to dig a hole for himself, trying to put his words in, heh heh heh, so he didn't say anything, but just sticking his finger out of his confidence and pointing at his head.
“It's already created five billion dollars worth! ”
Ike glanced slightly and smiled, “Mr. Smith, I have to admire you, you are a very powerful young man, and I have deep feelings for Marvel, and from the day I sat on the CEO I hoped it would grow in my hands, unfortunately... Can I call you Andy? ”
Seeing Andy nodding his hands with a smile, he went on to say, “Andy, if you really want to buy Marvel, I can help you close your shares on the board, but I have a request, don't kick me out, otherwise I don't think you're going to succeed. ”
“Oh, you worry too much, let alone acquire, even if I finally decide to acquire, it worked. Except for that nasty ambitious man, I don't think Marvel's personnel will change much, of course, the strategic layout is here! ”
Andy laughed, pointing at his head.
Ike also knew the kid in front of him wasn't a fool, "Well, how much you were going to pay to buy Marvel, you could tell. ”
“Well, say, two billion dollars. ”
“No, no.” Before Andy's voice dropped, Ike shook his head with laughter: “The price is not attractive at all. You know, Marvel doesn't just have a cartoon and a movie business, toy making, all kinds of peripherals, sales networks, a group of these subsidiaries can't take it away for $2 billion. ”
Andy pretended to be an irrelevant staller and said, "So, at the suggestion of the think tank, I gave up because I was worried about you lions talking, and the future profitability strategy and the enormous problems that exist within you. ”
“Oh, we can talk about the price slowly, always find a price acceptable to both sides, and one more thing, I wanted to ask, did you ever think about Stanley? ”
“Oh, Stan Lee is old, and I don't think he has much interest in power, and the reason he supports Kevin Paige now is that he sees the hope of Marvel rising from some of Kevin Paige's ideas, just can Kevin Paige compare to my strategic layout? ”
Andy showed strong confidence and momentum, coupled with the impression that he had never failed, and was incredibly persuasive, and even Ike had to nod his head.
Well, Ike couldn't help laughing at himself, Nima, who knows what your strategic layout is.
But looking at Andy Smith's success stories all the way down the road, it doesn't seem like he's going to talk nonsense.
“I'll confirm the subject of your acquisition at the board meeting, help you consolidate your shares, and then we can move on to the negotiation stage to find a price that everyone can accept. What do you think? ”
When I heard Ike speak to himself, Andy couldn't help but shake his head and smile, trying to continue to ignore him, and was interrupted directly by Ike: “Everyone is smart, and don't use some off-the-shelf moves. To be honest, for an unlisted company, shares are too dispersed and inefficient, I've long realized this too, but unfortunately I don't have that much money to complete the acquisition. Your presence may be a real opportunity for Marvel to rise, and I'm willing to help you, see Marvel flatten DC in my lifetime! ”
