I'm almost a Muggle

Integration is expected, and it seems that all acquired companies will go through this step, which is a good thing for MGM now.

MGM's problem has always been that its profit model is too single.

Only rely on movies.

The movie can only rely on "007".

There is no ability to resist risks, so successive acquirers have tried to change this situation and have tormented some things like resorts, hotels, and coffee.

Of course, we can know from now on that MGM wants to sell itself, and these attempts have been very failed.

If you sell it, you can concentrate on making movies.

Nowadays, MGM no longer has to worry about the problem of not being single.

Before leaving for China, Gary Barber and Mary Palent studied the Chinese company Klester Culture Technology Co., Ltd.

They were surprised to find that this company, which has only been established for less than six years, spans multiple industries such as entertainment, Internet, technology, automobiles, drones, etc. It has the largest live broadcast platform in China, the second music kingdom, and the fourth video website...

60 billion yuan invests in the chip industry.

30 billion yuan to build cars.

30 billion yuan to create online and offline retail...

A true business giant.

What they couldn't understand even more was that such a company was not listed.

Being acquired by such a company is worried about being a single thing.

What makes them feel that a child with a mother looks like a treasure is the company's strong strength in film production and distribution.

The company released a movie "New Shushan" last year, with a total box office of nearly 1.1 billion US dollars, and won 90 million in North America.

They are in Hollywood and know more than anyone else the impact of this movie at that time.

From this movie, Hollywood filmmakers were terrified to discover that Chinese movies are actually very competitive in terms of special effects and production.

Many people say that this company will be the enemy of Hollywood movies in the future.

Now, this enemy has become MGM's father.

Dad, he hit me ~

Good, dad will help you hit them ~

Give you money, special effects, resources...

It’s great to have a child with a dad!

The first issue was given $3.8 billion, which made Gary Barber and Mary Palent burst into tears.

It's really worth it. We became a 25-year-old in advance.

That's right, the company lost $10 billion to this project.

All the money left over from the acquisition has become development funds.

Although Hollywood movies are rampant and blockbuster movies, on average, $100 million is enough to make a very good blockbuster.

Three or eight billion dollars are enough for them to shoot thirty-eight movies.

In fact, their budget last year was 50 million per movie, and they could only shoot three to six movies.

Therefore, I had to follow Warner behind the scenes of "The Hobbit".

This gap is too big.

If you want to understand what the concept of 3.8 billion US dollars is.

Let’s take a look at the transcripts of Hollywood manufacturers last year, that is, in 2016.

Disney has released a total of 13 movies, and the box office of these movies in Miguo has reached US$3 billion; Warner, which has launched 25 movies, has a box office of US$1.9 billion; Fox, which has launched 17 movies, is US$1.5 billion; Universal, which has also launched 17 movies, is US$1.4 billion; Sony has launched 21 movies, but the box office of the company in Miguo has only US$911 million; Paramount, which has launched 15 movies, is only US$877 million.

That is to say, $3.8 billion is higher than any other company's box office last year.

Remove distribution, theater sharing, etc., and the box office generates less profit.

The impact is too great, which makes them feel that it is not very real.

They try hard to control their expressions and cannot be embarrassed in front of the Chinese. We are Miguo elites.

"It's probably that's it. After you go back, you start your work immediately and cooperate with our documentary "Big Cat" to be launched globally. At that time, everyone will see MGM's new logo. This movie is considered to be MGM's performance indicators this year." Pei Qianlong still gave some advice for Mr. Lin.

Regardless of whether Mr. Lin’s ambition is the European and American film market or simply wanting to promote Klester’s brand to the whole world, he does not want Mr. Lin to be disappointed.

A large investment of 10 billion US dollars and 67 billion yuan must not lose money.

"There is absolutely no problem. I can run on the issue. I actually want to confirm that we can really make the decision on the money?" Gary Barber finally chose to ask directly.

"To a certain extent, make decisions." After hearing this question, Pei Qianlong signaled to President Shi Shanshan to explain.

This belongs to the company's rules and regulations.

"The 3.8 billion yuan will be placed in MGM's account, and will be used after being reviewed by MGM's Finance Department, and then submitted to the group for approval." Shi Shanshan said.

Of course it is impossible to say that you can take it all if you want.

Many people have taken huge sums of money to miguo. As a result, they not only do not care whether the money is legal or not, but also deliberately cover up, thereby attracting more funds to join their social system.

They will not protect the interests of investors in the Wrong Poker.

Therefore, it is very necessary to use certain processes to protect the safety of funds.

The dispatch to MGM's Finance Department is a further guarantee.

"For example, I have a friend..." Gary Barber tried to describe it by giving examples.

"Puchi!" One after another, the executives in the conference room couldn't control themselves.

Is it also popular among foreigners that they are having dirty friends?

Poor Gary Barber has no idea what he said wrong. Is this the gap between Chinese and Western cultures?

Shi Shanshan held back her laughter and in order not to let each other's relationships arise, she popularized the domestic online jokes for the two foreigners.

Gary Barber laughed, and he quickly explained: "But I really don't have any friends out of nothing. I'm talking about Graham King. Maybe you've heard of his movie "The Walker of the Skies" or "Hugo."

"I prefer his "Foresee the Future", which is a very good setting. Unfortunately, Nicholas Zhao Si failed to turn around with this." Du Qixi obviously heard of this person.

When he brags with others, he likes to mention different directors.

People in the director's department must also have knowledge content when bragging, just like junior high school students writing essays and famous quotes are plus points.

"Yes, it's him." Someone here knows an old friend, Gary Barber is very happy, and he continued to explain: "My friend, he always wants to bring the Queens experience to the big screen."

If Queens is unfamiliar with this name, it will almost be known to everyone when it comes to We Will Rock You.

However, this is already the work of their group after they were disbanded.

In 2004, the BBC produced a documentary about "Bohemian Rhapsody". Starting from the music, former band members and music producers were able to recall the youthful moments of the Queen's band.

Since then, Sony has begun preparing this biopic to try to show the legendary story of this legendary band more comprehensively.

Unfortunately, by 2010, Sony sold the copyright to 20th Century Fox and completely gave up this idea.

This year is 2017, and seven years have passed, and 20th Century Fox has not put the film on the agenda.

Graham King hopes to shoot this biopic in his lifetime.

A biopic that Gary Barber hopes to use to test how much authority he has in the new company.
