Post-shadow Development Plan

As a result, not only did Lucas lose his eligibility for the Academy, he would never be able to get the best director statuette.

At the same time, the "Star Wars" series is also on the blacklist of Oscars, and it is very difficult to win some technical awards.

But Lucas himself didn't particularly mind.

In the past two years, when he and Spielberg and Francis Coppola presented the award to his old friend Martin Scorsese, he also poked fun at himself.

Because he got more than what he lost.

The achievement of "Star Wars" is neither recognized until it wins an Oscar, nor will it be denied because it does not have an Oscar.

It's just that as the most famous director in Hollywood in the 80s, it's a pity to lose such an award.

After all, he was the only one of the [Four Heavenly Kings] who didn't win this award. If he really said that he didn't have any sympathy in his heart, it would be a lie.

Especially when people get older, they will always miss these shortcomings.

"Regarding that matter, how is your internal discussion going?"

Qiye saw that no one was paying attention to her, so she asked Lucas in a low voice.

That incident naturally refers to Jiufeng's acquisition of Lucasfilm.

Although Lucas is the founder and actual controller of Lucasfilm, he is not the only shareholder in the entire company.

Therefore, regarding the acquisition of Jiufeng, Lucas must find a way to convince others.

"There's nothing wrong with selling the company," Lucas whispered, "but some people want to sell it for a higher price."

This is also normal, whoever you sell to is not selling, it is always good to get more money.

It is not uncommon in corporate acquisitions to bring in other buyers and increase the purchase price.

The most famous example is that when Disney acquired Fox in the future, it was plugged in by Comcast, the largest cable company in the United States.

In the end, the acquisition amount of US$524 billion that was originally agreed with Fox was finally abruptly pulled to US$713 billion.

As for whether Comcast really wanted to acquire Fox, or was it pulled by Fox to raise the price.

It is estimated that no one will know except the parties involved.

It's just that what Lucas said next made Qiye a little worried.

"Some people hope to bring in [-]th Century Fox to maximize their profits."

Lucas's words immediately made Qiye frowned.

It doesn't matter if it's another company, the big deal is that Jiufeng's bid will be higher in the end.

As long as Lucasfilm is bought within $45 billion, it's all worth it.

But Fox is different.

Not to mention that Fox will definitely quote with the mentality of "even if I can't buy it, you will lose money".

As News Corporation has been following her and Ziyuan's actions every day during this period, Qiye doesn't think that the other party will follow the normal business process to make an acquisition.

"Does Fox already know about this?"

Qiye asked a little nervously.

"Not yet, I'm suppressing it." Lucas whispered, "But I guess it won't be long before they will know about it."

Qiye nodded slightly.

After all, Fox has been a partner of Lucasfilm for many years. It is impossible to believe that there is no Qiye in the management who is interested in Fox.

Since Lucas said so, Qiye will definitely make Shion ready for Fox to enter the game.

It is also very simple to get Fox out of the game, as long as they themselves suffer from a crisis and don't have the energy to manage it, Lucasfilm will be fine.

It's just that if this happens, it needs to cooperate with Jiufeng's plan to deal with News Corporation.

[It seems that the acquisition of Lucasfilm will not be completed soon. 】

Seven nights is a bit regretful to think about.

He also wants to link Fate with the "Star Wars" series.

But with an acquisition as huge as Lucasfilm, it's impossible to be impatient.

The more impatient, often only backfired.

So after Lucas left, Qiye discussed some issues with Shion about Lucasfilm.

In the end, the two decided to maintain the original acquisition plan.

It's just that the purchase price must be prepared for an increase.

But in terms of funds, Jiufeng has always had a huge advantage.

In terms of money, Jiufeng really won't lose to anyone.

But that's only for Lucasfilm.
