Ace Hollywood - Chapter 452

Robert did have a good understanding of the people on the Disney board. After nearly a month of discussions, the board officially authorized Robert to negotiate an acquisition of Marvel. At this time, Marvel and DD Pictures have announced that the two parties have reached an agreement on the acquisition intention and are ready to start negotiations on specific acquisition terms.

Of course, that’s not to say the deal between the two is largely done. The significance of this clause is that the directors of Marvel recognize the possibility of selling the company to DD Films, and then only specific conditions need to be met, including the most important price, as well as employees, benefits, and even the development of the company. , as well as industry restrictions on each other, etc. These specific things require a long time of work – in general, if an unexpected situation occurs, the sincerity of both parties is too much, and the process will be quick shorten.

Disney’s intervention added attention to the scene.

After killing Sony and winning MGM, DD Pictures continued to win the Disney game. Perhaps in the eyes of many people, it is a verification move, indicating that it is indeed keeping pace with the old studios, not only Only in terms of box office and revenue, it also spreads to intangible assets such as influence and market reputation. In many cases, intangibles are more important.

“2.8 billion?”

Daniel only focused on the most important number. In fact, he thinks this number is quite good. Just one year later, Disney spent more than 4 billion to acquire Marvel. The current Marvel is indeed not worth this price, there is no Iron Man, there is no Captain America, Marvel’s main potential assets – those heroes, the value has not yet risen.

But Daniel didn’t plan to let it go. To be honest, if Daniel agreed, the deal might not be reached right away. Marvel’s board of directors will definitely take it as a price tag and try to get a better price from Disney, which also has deep pockets. 2.8 billion may not make them retreat. Doing so will only add to the trouble.

“Let’s talk to them according to our plan.”

DD’s asking price is 2.5 billion, a difference of 300 million, which is a big number.

…

“This year has gone by so fast.”

Daniel, Paul Walker, Megan Fox and Michael Bay. In Daniel’s Malibu mansion, discussing the sequel to “Transformers” – “Transformers” finally fell at the global box office of about 1.36 billion, second only to “Titanic”, and in the Chinese market, “Transformers” “King Kong” cut 480 million. Nearly 60 million US dollars, surpassing South Korea’s 52 million, becoming the largest overseas market, especially in 3D digital and digital IMAX, the performance is very bright.

The Chinese market has really come to the center of the vision of Hollywood filmmakers, starting in 2007!

The second-largest box office market after North America is a reality that no one can ignore. It is inevitable that the Chinese market will be under more diplomatic pressure. The MPAA has already met to discuss how to ask the U.S. State Department to make a more significant effort to urge China to open up its markets and boost box-office allocations. even. The MPAA took the lead and held a meeting with several members of Congress and a deputy secretary of state to discuss the issue. They hoped that Daniel could attend in person. As the person who has the closest relationship with China in Hollywood, he also has an important position in American politics. His opinion was crucial, but Daniel was not present, and David attended that meeting on behalf of DD Pictures. Many people are still disappointed.

Hearing Daniel’s exclamation, Meghan looked left and right, “Maybe it’s because your time is spent on campus.”

Daniel has almost no film work this year, other than business and publicity work. All his time was spent at Berkeley, and he was trying to hope that he could graduate on time, but it seemed difficult now.

“Seriously, you are studying business at Berkeley, do the teachers really dare to teach you?”

Megan asked curiously.

Since “Transformers” became extremely popular around the world, Megan Fox has been the dream goddess of countless young people. Sexy, youthful, and infinitely energetic, Meghan’s impression is completely in line with young men’s imagination of women. Obviously, Meghan will have a good ranking in the many sexy, beautiful, etc. comment lists at the end of the year.

“Why not? There are a lot of people in Berkeley who have won the Nobel Prize. Even the president is nothing special in front of them, let alone me.”

“I need to go first, how about you?”

Michael looked at his watch. He still has a schedule ahead. I have to say that although he was a great director before, after Transformers, his commercial value has taken a leap, and since then he has truly stepped into the popular ranks. Second behind Steven and James.

“I’m going to participate in the association’s activities.”

Paul is talking about a surfing association in Los Angeles. He is the most indifferent among several people. Whether it is red or not, whether it is before or after, he always lives at his own pace, racing, surfing, ocean, etc. Hiking, anyway, as long as it is something other than work, he rarely does extra work, and life is what he wants.

This point, in fact, last time on Oprah’s talk show, Oprah also mentioned it deliberately.

Paul and Daniel, she said, are two extremes of Hollywood, they are not like most Hollywood stars, they work, enjoy, indulge and luxurious, Daniel is a whole workaholic, half “puritan”, and Paul is a wanderer People inside and outside the circle, he rarely does activities in the circle, and spends most of his time on hobbies outside the circle.

Oprah asserts that this distinction is, to some extent, a shared endorsement — neither of them think they should spend their time switching girlfriends, partying, drinking, and yachting. This may be an important reason for their friendship.

“Making friends is sometimes difficult to reason with mathematical logic.”

Daniel’s reply avoids outright acknowledging the reality that most of his peers are bastards.

Hearing Michael and Paul’s words, Daniel stood up and prepared to send them off.

As a result, Megan shouted dissatisfiedly~www.mtlnovel.com~Daniel, are you trying to drive away the guests? I didn’t say I was going. “

The two old men winked at Daniel. Of course everyone could see what Meghan meant.

The little girl was tempted by Daniel.

In fact, it doesn’t start from now, but as Meghan’s popularity is getting higher and higher, she thinks this possibility is getting bigger and bigger, so it’s more obvious.

Daniel smiled helplessly.

“No one drives you away, I just send them off first.”

“Okay! Bye, you two.”

“…bye, you sound like a mistress.” Michael teased her maliciously.

It’s a pity that the young and meaningless girl has no more emotions than pride. (To be continued.)
