Hollywood starts with animation

Chapter 170 Killing Fox's CEO

Acquired White Castle Press at a cost of 7.8 million US dollars;

Acquired Smile Publishing House at a cost of 63 million US dollars;

Acquisition of Duke Brown Bear Press at a cost of 70 million US dollars;

After winning the three publishing houses, Jin Shuguang Entertainment Group spent a total of US$140.8 million. It is because Jin Shuguang Entertainment Group is now rich in wealth, and this money is definitely not a small figure.

"Victor, our current liquidity should be enough to support the distribution network layout in Mexico and South America, right?"

Zhuke asked.

"Yes!"

CEO Victor nodded and said: "This morning, Sister Martha, the chief financial officer, just reported the company's financial status with me. At present, there are still US$120 million in liquidity on the books of the head office, enough to prepare for the establishment of Mexico and South America. Distribution network. Moreover, even if there is a shortage of funds, we can also draw up funds from UPN Television Network and Wald Pictures to support the strategic expansion plan of the head office."

Hearing this, Zhu Ke nodded.

Understand it clearly.

"Oh, yes. Regarding the "Titanic" situation, don't forget to pay more attention in the near future, urging Paramount and Fox to quickly transfer the first share to our company's account." Zhuke Reminded again.

"Okay, boss."

"The six big Hollywood guys are all fucking masters who cannibalize people without spitting out bones. If you don't pay attention, our money will be cheated. I don't want to go to court with them because of the money. That would be too troublesome. "Zuke curled his lips.

The six major ethics of Hollywood are totally unreasonable!

Every year, any of the Big Six in Hollywood has no fewer than dozens of court cases because of salary issues and split issues!

For the movie "Tantenic", Wald Pictures invested $85 million and won 25% of the box office profit share of the producer and related offline peripheral licensing income.

According to the current box office trend, the box office results of the film should be the same as the original time and space.

In other words, the North American box office is 659 million U.S. dollars, the overseas box office is 1.151 billion U.S. dollars, and the global box office is 1.81 billion U.S. dollars (this does not count as the remake of the 3D version in 2012 and the 20th anniversary edition in 2017).

...

The first is North America.

"Titanic" North American box office of 659 million US dollars!

After deducting 39% of the theater’s share, deducting 18% of the publisher’s fees, deducting 3% of the cost of materials such as copying, and deducting 15% of the Cameron director’s share, only the North American total is left in the hands of the producer. 25% of the box office, which is about 164 million US dollars.

however!

This $164 million is not entirely owned by Wald Pictures!

The income belonging to Wald Pictures was only a quarter of the 164 million US dollars, and finally only 41 million US dollars!

"Damn Paramount and Fox, it's fucking black!"

Zhuke looked at the report in his hand and vomited: "Victor, look at their issuance costs, tusk tusk~, shamelessly won 18%."

Don't say that Zhuke will complain about them.

We must know that in normal times, a film that costs more than 100 million yuan, its distribution fee is 8% to 15%, and even some films only 6%.

I have to say that the Big Six are indeed enough for chicken thieves!

The production company of the film "Tantenic" is the two of them, and the distribution company is also the two of them. To increase the distribution cost, for both of them, it is just left-handed, but for Wald Pictures, it is A lot of money was lost.

"Ha ha!"

Upon hearing this, Victor laughed unkindly.

He smiled and scolded: "Boss, you can just talk in front of me. If you say this in front of Paramount and 20th Century Fox, you might be mad at them."

"Don't forget, we made a lot of money in overseas box office."

"In addition to North America, the box office alone collected 160 million U.S. dollars and deducted the 85 million U.S. dollars in cost. We made a full 75 million U.S. dollars."

"The big beneficiaries are the profits of the offline market. It is expected that in the next few years, it will bring us no less than US$250 million in profit again."

When the voice fell, Zhuke suddenly died out.

After this account was settled, Zhu Ke was indeed making a big profit.

Moreover, even in the future, the movie will be rescreened in the 3D version in 2012 and the 20th anniversary edition in 2017. As one of the investors, Wald Pictures will continue to enjoy profit sharing.

It's so beautiful!

"Well, the next job is to integrate the three acquired publishing houses into one publishing house and three sub-brands."

For a time, Zhu Ke thought a lot in his mind and started a long-term plan.

Why did you buy a publishing house?

Isn't it to expand the territory of the Golden Dawn Entertainment Group and provide the company's anti-risk capabilities?

At the same time, when the publishing house is integrated, the "Harry Potter" series of novels can be started to operate. When the time is right, the big movie mode can be opened in one fell swoop.

.......

20th Century Fox Pictures.

CEO Bill Mcnick, President Tom Rothman, Chief Operating Officer Jack, Production Director Ganopoulos, Production Manager and "Titanic" Producer Grant Hill.

Five people gathered together to discuss the issue of Wald Pictures.

"Bill, we are in the "Titanic" project, we will lose a lot of money, you are the CEO of the group, you have to bear the main responsibility!"

At the beginning of the meeting, Tom Rothman, the president of the group, pointed the finger directly at CEO Bill McNick.

The purpose is obvious!

It is to hold you accountable and blow you down!

If you don't step down, how can I have a chance to be in charge?

Ganopoulos, the director of the production department, also echoed: "According to the data passed by the finance, Wald Pictures will make at least 320 million U.S. dollars in the next few years. The board of directors has already stated that it will sell investment shares to Wo We ask for an explanation for the case of Erde Pictures."

"Yes!"

Chief Operating Officer Jack: "Bill, you are the CEO, you have to take the main responsibility!"

Grant Hill, the production manager and producer of "Titanic", agreed: "Mr. Murdoch, he will see how much money we made for him, and he will also see how stupid we have cost him. how much is it."

CEO Bill: "......"

All betrayed!

At this moment, Bill McNick felt very chilling. In addition to scolding a few guys on the scene for being unkind, he also scolded Zhuke as the initiator.

If it weren't for Zhuke, he still enjoys the fame and cheers that "Tantane" brings to him.

But now, everything is over!

really!

Within a few days, in the new board of directors, most of the shareholders headed by Chairman Murdoch issued an attack on CEO Bill.

Especially those shareholders who had long been dissatisfied with Bill, they even used the topic to make use of it, calling on other shareholders in one fell swoop to request the removal of Bill's CEO.

In the end, the vote passed.

Bill, step down sadly~~!

"Zuke Wald, you goddamn bastard, you caused me to lose my job, and I will never finish with you!" Bill McNick.
