Hollywood legendary director

After several contacts, on June 8, Mann Media and Marvel Entertainment finally reached an agreement.

Among them, Mann Media will acquire all shares of Marvel Entertainment for a total price of US$1.53 billion, and Marvel has officially announced that it will become a wholly-owned subsidiary of Mann Media.

After this, the CAA party received 45 million US dollars in benefits, and returned with pleasure, sufficient cash to pay off a large part of the debt owed by Marvel, and the debt ratio from 58% to 7%.

And this time the acquisition also reduced the circulating funds of Mann Media from 2.04 billion to 470 million.

It is worthwhile to maintain the daily operations of several companies for about a year. However, after the painting of "Juneo", there will be a box office income of no less than $84 million in the account, and the funding situation will not be very serious.

It can even be said that it is difficult to find such an opportunity to join Marvel.

Everyone knows that after Marvel took off by gambling, its market value has doubled in a short period of time, and "Iron Man" was screened in 2008.It was 4.2 billion in 2009.

And this, in addition to Lehman's waiting for two years and two years of preparation, is also the result of Tianshiren and joint influence.

You must know that without bank borrowing tightening and financial market instability, housing prices have begun to fall, and negotiations with Marvel shareholders, large and small, will never be so easy.

It is also because of this change that many shareholders no longer care about Marvel's investment and are in urgent need of cash.

In addition, Brian Lord has mastered first-hand information and strong personal network and public relations skills, directly contacted Marvel management, and communicated with the controlling party, completely severing the idea of ​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​ .

Of course, Firefly's ability to produce that has been continuously proven by the market is also one of the reasons to stabilize people's hearts.

June 9.

Under the witness of many media, Lyman, Avi Arad and Ike Patem made their official appearances and reported the news to the media in a friendly manner.

This is only a normal acquisition in the circle, but because it involves the influential Marvel Entertainment in the American comic market, it is still worth reporting.

The news spread, online and comic fans, quickly made this matter the focus of discussion.

Not only some people care very much, but Firefly fans are also deeply concerned.

Mainly, many people can think of buying Marvel for what.

No one can ignore the great success of Spider-Man.

After Warner Pictures, DC President Anthony learned of the news, he was also pondering Lehman's intentions.

But no matter how you think about it, Marvel is indeed a mess. It's just that people who have always been savvy can get confused.

If Marvel is really valuable, Columbia could win it two years earlier.

After the filming of "Spider-Man", the senior management made an asset assessment of Marvel, and did not feel the need for an acquisition.

Of course, Lehman doesn't care what the outside world thinks or how to say, because time and results will prove everything.

That afternoon.

Lehman took the report in Joseph’s hand and said, “You select a group of people from Firefly to enter Marvel, and you also contact the headhunting company to find some experienced managers in the circle to fill the remaining job vacancies. How to arrange it? You think more."

When Joseph went out, Ryan entered and said, "People are already waiting outside, do you want him to come in?"

"Well, notify him to come over."

Soon after Ryan left, he saw a fat white man in his forties with a slightly blessed figure entering the office with two faint dark circles under his eyes.

......

Kevin Fitch has been unable to sleep well since Marvel was acquired by Mann Media.

You said that he is a producer, and he still has the opportunity to contact people in this industry relying on Marvel's character image. Finally, he has accumulated some work experience and his salary has been steadily increasing. As a result, he has encountered a change in the company's top management.

Don't know what his future will be, Kevin is a little worried.

Then, he was notified that the big boss wanted to see him, and he suddenly became nervous again.

After entering, he only dared to look a little, then quickly looked away, quietly waiting for the boss's instructions.

Upon seeing this, Lyman looked at Kevin carefully.

Looks? I have seen a lot in my previous life. It's quite ordinary, but it is this kind of person who has brought Marvel to a new height.

If Avi Allard is the savior who saved Marvel from the brink of bankruptcy, then Kevin Fitch is the leader of Marvel's rapid rise.

"Kevin, see if your resume has participated in multiple adaptations of Marvel characters?"

Kevin Fitch listened to the boss’s more affectionate address, and felt that something might be a good thing. He couldn’t help but felt good, and tried to calm down and replied: “At that time, Marvel lacked a person to supervise the crew, so I went up. Over the years, I have been doing similar work."

Kevin's talent in production lies in his ability to connect the roles of various series of movies, and fully cater to the tastes of the audience, and has a strong business acumen.

The reason why he has such a keen eye is also because he is a member of Marvel and joined various studios to develop Marvel movies, including the "X-Men" series.

In general, he understands the role of Marvel very well, participated in the production process of various works, and understands the market factors of success, which laid the foundation for him to develop the Marvel universe.

In other words, a producer who is better than him does not understand Marvel, or knows Marvel better than him, and does not know how to make movies. In addition, he can fully investigate the market audience and think that adapting comics is just copying the image design. Certainly, how could such a person be unsuitable for the president of Marvel Pictures?

Yes, the first person Lehman mentions is Kevin Fitch. He is also a Marvel old man. He has both qualifications and ability. Of course, he must be regarded as the executive officer of the Marvel project like his previous life He has sufficient right to speak.

Kevin Fitch saw that Lyman had arranged everything, and he was unwilling to leave the field he was already familiar with. Of course he accepted it politely.

"There is one thing you can know first. In a few days, I will separate Marvel Pictures from Marvel Entertainment and mention the corresponding administrative level. The first thing you do after taking office is to improve the personnel structure as soon as possible. , Just hire them if they are short of people."

Lehman continued to say to Kevin Fitch, who is about to be promoted to president of the film industry: "Also, in the second half of this year, I will set up a movie to adapt the role of Iron Man. Before the project is officially approved, you can go to the screenwriter of Firefly. The department develops a shooting idea, you can treat it as a test."

When Kevin heard the words, he immediately felt the pressure.

This position will not be so good, but he will definitely not give up.

Can be valued by the new boss, how can such an opportunity shrink?

Furthermore, he has always been thinking about how to shoot Marvel's own movies, but the Marvel Studios that was previously established is just an empty shell for cooperation with other studios, without the ability to produce, this did not realize the idea. way.

"Also," Lehman waved his hand: "Marvel Pictures is separated from Marvel Entertainment. Don't touch too much, do you understand?"

"understand."

Kevin hesitated for a moment, sorted out the language, and then said: "I don't know the department funds...Also, where should the expenses be accounted for?"

"You don't have to worry about this. Since I want to reuse Marvel Pictures, of course I will arrange it. Joseph will help you with the specific financial statements. You only care about production and project development. If there is any problem in the comics department, ignore it and report it truthfully. That's it."

When Kevin Fitch walked out of the boss's office, he was still in a daze, but he was still full of motivation.

Is the first adapted character Iron Man?

Technology?

......

Rust Manor, night.

Eva sat on the balcony, blowing in the cool breeze, flipping through the newspaper.

I don't know how long, the other one also returned.

The sound of the car's engine, the opening of the door, the butler's greeting, and then the sound of him coming to tease.

"What are you doing?"

Eva sorted out the clothes she had touched, glared at a certain man with sex, and spread the newspaper on her own.

"I can't even match the temptation of a newspaper?"

The man's shameless voice sounded.

"Hmph, this is a report on the painting of "Juneo", so nice to say."

"Turning over and over is a dark horse, a dark horse, it's a cliché, there's no novelty."

Eva ignores him. This is a film she produced. Can the meaning be the same?

"That's right, you used to play the role, but now you choose the role, which is very novel."

"Forget it, let's go to bed. You wash first, or I wash first, or... wash together?"

"If you don't say anything, you just acquiesced. I've been together for so long."

Lyman thought about it, and finally picked up the pleasant little fairy.

Ah hit, monsters, take my grandson a stick!
