Rebirth of the Entertainment Master

Kerry said: "So you are the most suitable partner for us at MGM. First of all, you have money, and secondly, you don't have the desire to control everything. If we sell you the shares of MGM Cinemas, then your movies will It will be unimpeded in the MGM theaters. With your support, we can win the dominance of the theaters and avoid anti-monopoly laws. This is a win-win situation for us."

Xiao Yunhai smiled and said, "But, Kerry, I really can't afford it."

MGM's market value is more than 530 billion U.S. dollars, and buying 53% of it will cost [-] billion. Although Xiao Yunhai is very rich, his most important goal is the China Cinemas at the end of the year.If he bought MGM, his domestic theaters would be in trouble.

Kerry frowned and said, "Xiao, are you rejecting me? Just one "Jing Wu Hero" brought you more than 20 billion US dollars in net income, and now you tell me that you have no money."

Xiao Yunhai said: "Kerry, you should know that next year our Huaxia Film and Television Barriers will be lifted, and by the end of the year our country's largest theater chain --- Huaxia Cinemas will be sold. It is a behemoth with a market value of 2000 billion U.S. dollars. I need it. Compared with America, China is my root. Do you understand?"

Kerry said: "It turns out that you came up with this idea. In this way, you can exchange the shares of the Magic Special Effects Company with the shares of our MGM Film and Television Company."

Xiao Yunhai said resolutely: "Kerry, don't think about this matter. I will never agree to this condition."

The Magic Special Effects Company is Xiao Yunhai's biggest reliance, especially after the development of new special effects technology, the market value will double as a certainty.

Although he won't hold on to it all the time, Xiao Yunhai will never sell until the stock price reaches the highest point.

Kerry frowned and said, "Is there no other way?"

Xiao Yunhai said: "Yes. You give me the shares in the cinema, and I will use Magic as a mortgage, and give me five years to pay it off. Wouldn't that be enough? Anyway, you are not short of money."

Kerry thought for a while and said, "This is a way. How much are you going to buy?"

Xiao Yunhai said with a smile: "Then let's see the court's judgment in a few days. Anyway, there is no rush. Maybe you can get more than 40.00% of the shares by then."

Kerry nodded and said, "Okay, I'll go back and report to my father. By the way, I haven't congratulated you yet. Your "Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone" has sold 300 million copies worldwide. It can be said that it has taken the whole world by storm. Xiao, do I know? My intestines are green with regret now."

Xiao Yunhai said: "Those four publishers took most of the money away. Even if I sell 30.00 million copies, I'll only get [-]% of the profit."

Kerry said with a smile: "But the next few volumes after you are where you make a lot of money."

Xiao Yunhai said with certainty: "Of course."

The two chatted for a while, and went back separately.

That night, Xiao Yunhai received a call from Kerry, saying that his father had agreed.After the court pronounces the verdict, we will deal with related matters.

MGM's plans are good, but plans never keep up with change.

Xiao Yunhai left Los Angeles the next morning, and the economic crisis erupted like a volcano that day.

The speed of the whole process and the magnitude of the impact are unbelievable.

In just two days, the Wall Street stock market plummeted by 18.00%, and trillions of wealth evaporated without a trace.

Hollywood was the first to bear the brunt. Including Xiao Yunhai's magical special effects company, the stocks of film and television companies, large and small, plummeted. Like a roller coaster, they fell to the lowest point after a while.

Like Magic Special Effects Company, it changed from $46 to $32 in just one day.

However, it doesn't matter to Xiao Yunhai, anyway, he doesn't know how to sell magic.

But other companies can't stand it, especially the eight major film companies.

Because they were sued by those small and medium-sized film and television companies, their stocks were already falling unstoppably, let alone after the outbreak of the economic crisis.

It was originally a drop of 0.5 US dollars and 1 US dollar, but now it is good, and it is a direct drop of [-] dollars or [-] dollars. Who can bear it.

In less than three days, the shares of the eight major film companies dropped by at least 18.00%, and Kerry's MGM directly plummeted by 20.00%.

The original market value of theaters was 520 billion U.S. dollars, which dropped to 430 billion U.S. dollars.

However, it is not without benefits. In view of the severe impact of the economic crisis on major companies, the court's monopoly on their cinemas will be postponed.

It was only after Xiao Yunhai returned to China that he learned from Zhao Wanqing that there was a financial crisis in the United States.

Xiao Yunhai frowned and said, "Honey, how much impact does this economic crisis have on our Huaxia?"

Zhao Wanqing said: "It's very big. Huaxia and the United States are the largest countries in the world with one east and one west. The economic ties between each other are very close. It's only been a day now, and our side has already received strong aftermath. Like The stock prices of Hongda, Dongfang, Pengpai and other companies have dropped by [-]%.”

Xiao Yunhai asked: "How about our Hanhai?"

Zhao Wanqing said: "It is not optimistic. However, Hanhai is different from other companies. More than 80.00% of the shares are in the hands of my father. Relatively speaking, there is not much turmoil."

Xiao Yunhai said: "How will that affect our entertainment industry?"

Zhao Wanqing said: "At the very least, the production of movies and TV dramas will drop significantly, because at this juncture, most investors are too busy to take care of themselves, who will invest in movies and TV dramas?"

Xiao Yunhai smiled and said: "Doesn't that mean we can have a good rest."

Zhao Wanqing shook her head and said with a smile, "It's completely wrong. If you have any movies and TV shows, you can shoot them during this time period. Because celebrities are now the cheapest, the original 4000 million may drop to 2000 million."

Xiao Yunhai laughed loudly, and said, "Honey, you still have an economic mind. By the way, how much money do we have now? I mean working capital."

Zhao Wanqing said: "The global box office of "Jing Wu Heroes" only received 12 billion US dollars, and I have already exchanged for Huaxia currency before. "Langya Bang", "The Voice of China" and "Run, Brother" made a total profit of 96 290 million. We now have a total of 30 billion Huaxia coins in our account, and there are more than [-] billion outside. Husband, what do you want to do?"

Xiao Yunhai smiled and said, "I'm very interested in the theaters in America and the special effects talents in Hollywood."

Zhao Wanqing said: "It shouldn't be a problem to recruit some special effects talents. As for the theater chain, is it not so easy?"

Xiao Yunhai said: "I've heard many experts say that the financial crisis is very serious. I don't believe that the eight major movie companies can survive. Once they have problems, we can get theater shares at a very small price. If we With theaters covering the entire North America, our films won’t have to worry about pronunciation in the future.”

Zhao Wanqing said with a smile: "To achieve this goal, we still need to obtain part of the shares of MGM, Warner and Disney."

"Yesterday, Kerry came to see me."

Xiao Yunhai talked about the agreement he reached with Kerry, and said: "I think this method is quite good. Our goals are different, but we can form the best complementarity. I think other companies should be willing to do the same. After all, That allows them to dodge the antitrust laws while effectively continuing to control the situation, and we get what we want.”

Zhao Wanqing said: "That's right. However, we shouldn't be too anxious. With the outbreak of the economic crisis, the market value of the theater chains of major companies will definitely drop sharply. We will negotiate again at that time."

Xiao Yunhai nodded and said, "Smart. Wife, how are our wedding preparations going?"

Zhao Wanqing said with some distress: "The most troublesome thing is the invitation card. This needs to be thought about carefully, and you can't miss people."

Xiao Yunhai said: "That's right. After we finish posting the invitations and settle the domestic affairs, we will take the two elderly people to Los Angeles. By the way, should the wedding photos be taken in China or abroad?"

Zhao Wanqing thought for a while and said, "Let's stay in China."

Next, the two began to discuss matters related to the wedding, looking back and forth at the guest list several times, starting at four o'clock in the afternoon and discussing until eleven o'clock in the evening before resting.

Chapter 608 Acquisition Plan

Two days later, Xiao Yunhai came to a box in a teahouse, and met Yang Bin, the person in charge of Jiujiu Music Network, whom he hadn't seen for a long time.

There is also a woman in her 30s sitting inside. She is very beautiful and wears a female professional attire. She is very imposing and looks like a strong woman.

Seeing Xiao Yunhai, Yang Bin and the woman stood up politely.

Xiao Yunhai laughed and said: "Brother Yang, it's not easy, we finally meet again."
