Rebirth Enchanted Xiangjiang

Qiao Feng ambiguously expressed his interest in MGM, but this interest is not so big because of the risk, that is, the issue of price.

The old fox Kekrian knew what Qiao Feng meant when he heard it, but he just felt that the price was not appropriate. If the price is right, Qiao Feng will definitely be interested in MGM.

"Mr. Joe, our MGM film library has the copyrights of more than 4,000 films, among which there are very classic works like Tarzan, The Wizard of Oz, Gone with the Wind, Broken Blue Bridge, Philadelphia Story, Cat and Mouse. These are MGM’s highest asset. With Mr. Joe’s genius and screenwriting ability, as long as MGM is bought, these classic movies will one day be adapted and reappear on the big screen to reshape their glory. "Koklian It is the old fox. Although he knew that Qiao Feng meant he wanted him to lower the price, he did not follow Qiao Feng's meaning, but continued to talk about MGM's advantage.

And just as Kirklian said, MGM’s huge film library and excellent quality are indeed the best among all Hollywood studios.

You can see it by just looking at a large number of excellent films that have won Oscars, and you can also see the names of those shining movie stars in Hollywood history.

MGM’s most valuable asset, in addition to the well-known film lion, is the MPAA (Motion Picture Association of America) classifying all films released in the United States and lobbying for the interests of American films. Up.

mpaa is headquartered in California. This organization was established in 1922 and originally appeared as a trading organization in the film industry.After that, it has been involved in not only movies shown in theaters, but also TV home photography and other delivery systems that may appear in the future.

The main members of the American Film Association are the chairman and presidents of seven film and television industry media giants in the United States.

There used to be eight film companies, including United States, so eight film companies including MGM, Columbia, and 20th Century Fox have been known as Hollywood’s eight largest.

It’s just that Lianmei was the first to fall behind, and it was acquired by MGM a few years ago. Therefore, the seven most powerful film companies in Hollywood are now called the Seven Hollywood.

This association can be said to manage all aspects of the many movies produced by many Hollywood studios.

In fact, apart from anything else, the classification alone is enough to make other companies look up.

And this mpaa has become the organization that many small and medium-sized companies in Hollywood most want to join, but they are the least likely to join. Because this organization is the best tool for big Hollywood companies to ensure their status and suppress small companies below.

Hollywood Seven Natures will not allow other companies to covet their rights. It can be said unceremoniously that unless luck is really good and the top Hollywood companies have to be treated equally, otherwise, mpaa can only do nothing. In.

The Seven Hollywood leaders lead a group of small and medium-sized companies, which can be said to be one of the hidden rules of Hollywood.

All companies that dare to challenge the seven positions and covet the seven rights will be strangled ruthlessly by the seven.

Just like DreamWorks in the 90s of the original space-time, its founder was Steven Spielberg, one of the best directors. At that time, Spielberg had just finished filming the box office record-breaking Jurassic Park. , With the title of the world’s most-grossing director and the world’s top richest man David Geffen and former Disney chairman Jeffrey Katzenberg, three Jews founded DreamWorks.

A partnership of three people requires money, money, contacts, and filming ability to have the great director Spielberg. However, the dream factory of these three people has been booming in the first few years and has been developing smoothly for a few years. In addition, the rest of the time suffered the ruthless strangulation of the seven major Hollywood such as 20th Century Fox, Paramount, and Universal.

Finally, ten years after its founding, DreamWorks, once known as one of Hollywood's new eight largest, was sold by three founders to Paramount, one of the original eight largest.

mpaa is a status symbol,

In terms of background, MGM is undoubtedly the strongest. Just as the old fox Koklian said, MGM’s most valuable is its huge film library and the copyrights and materials of those films.

Anyone who wins MGM means a huge library of more than 4,000 films, which is unmatched by any newly established company.

And these more than 4,000 films can not only enrich the film library, but also continue to sell copyrights, discs, and even adaptation rights. Just like the new father-in-law filmed by Qiao Feng and MGM, it is an adaptation of the original father-in-law purchased. right.

These authorizations are all money, and a lot of them in a year.

It’s just that, for a big film company, even if it’s just a big film company that can only make four or five films a year, it’s still a drop in the bucket.

In fact, Qiao Feng is very fond of MGM’s huge film library, but he did not show it. He still smiled calmly and said: "Mr. Kirkrian is right, MGM’s film library is really big. And there are many classic movies.

But one thing you didn’t say is that the most classic films were from before the forties and fifties. After that, they were not classic enough. And those old classic films still have a deep stigma.

Apart from authorizing the production of discs and broadcasting through various channels, such films are not of much value for adaptation.

Qiao Feng's remarks are of course pure nonsense, but he is a famous screenwriter, and he is also the object of Kokolian who wants to sell. It is not his decision whether it is suitable for adaptation.

Anyway, price reduction is like this, whether it is good or bad, it has to be said to be bad.

Just like a Chinese pawn shop, it is obviously an excellent fur coat, but it is said that insects eat and rat bite, tattered and lost, not just to keep prices down and make big profits.

Qiao Feng is going to talk about MGM, and talk about the film library that makes him greedy, so that he can take the initiative in future negotiations.

"1.5 billion, only 1.5 billion US dollars Mr. Joe can buy MGM, buy this long and glorious film company and the huge library of more than 4,000 movies, and the qualifications for mpaa. "Qiao Feng wanted to keep the price down, but Kekelian was naturally unwilling, so he no longer entangled with Qiao Feng on the advantages and disadvantages of MGM, and started the first offer straightforwardly.

"US$1.5 billion?" Qiao Feng chuckled and shook his head. When Cokerian's smile changed, Qiao Feng slowly said: "Mr. Cokerian, such an offer is too insincere. Right."
