Rebirth: My dad is a coal boss

Warner Bros. has the DC Universe, the Harry Potter series, the Lord of the Rings series, the Matrix series, IT series, Tom and Jerry, etc., all of which are very classic works.

Disney has even more, including Disney animations such as Mickey Mouse, Frozen, Star Wars, Pirates of the Caribbean, and Avatar series. After acquiring Marvel, there are even more.

The cooperation between Universal and Marvel is pretty good now, but the movie Hulk directly caused Universal to lose hundreds of millions of dollars, and all subsequent plans were directly cut.

Fortunately, Lin Hao is here now, Marvel has not been acquired by Disney, and has a close relationship with Universal, so it can be considered to acquire it. Anyway, Marvel is now poor and can hardly continue to operate.

There are other bad ones that can be intercepted, such as the Avatar series, etc.

Now that "The Hulk" has been filmed and is about to be released, it is doomed to lose money. Now we can only think about how to reduce the loss. Lin Hao remembers that the schedule of this movie in China is not good. On October 10, the National Day has passed, and there are still people going to the cinema to watch movies. It seems that we have to think of a way to change the schedule to National Day or summer vacation.

"We can strengthen cooperation with Marvel and see if there is a good opportunity to acquire the other party. Ron, you should keep an eye on this matter and follow up as a key point." Lin Hao said.

Lin Hao's words not only surprised Ron Meyer, but also a group of senior executives. It is understandable to maintain cooperation with Marvel, after all, the other party has a lot of comic resources, but the subsequent acquisition is very surprising. You know, Lin Hao has just acquired Universal Pictures, Universal Music and Blizzard Entertainment, and now he wants to acquire Marvel.

Especially Benjamin, he knows that Lin Hao is still thinking about acquiring the Lakers. This is an acquisition addiction. He acquires when he disagrees, but Lin Hao has money, so he naturally won't say anything.

Although Ron Mayer was a little surprised, he immediately replied: "Okay, boss, I will implement this as soon as possible." The acquisition of Marvel is a good thing for Universal Pictures, which can enrich Universal Pictures' IP resources.

He is jealous of the "Spider-Man" movie. Last year, Sony's "Spider-Man" had a global box office revenue of between US$821.7 million and US$850 million. Unfortunately, the film copyright has been sold by Marvel, and it is not easy to get it back.

It is for this reason that Universal wants to shoot "The Hulk" to copy the other party's explosive road. Unfortunately, the production cost is as high as US$137 million to US$150 million, and the global box office is only about US$245 million.

"Today is my first day officially in Universal Pictures. There are a few things to announce." Lin Hao's words made a group of Universal executives sit up straight, knowing that the real show is coming.

This is a job that concerns everyone. No one wants to lose their jobs. No one knows what big moves Lin Hao will make. Will he lay off employees?

"Mr. Ron Mayer will continue to be the CEO of the company." Lin Hao smiled at Ron Mayer, which was his previous promise. Ron Mayer also stood up and gestured to the group of people. Everyone in the conference room applauded and congratulated.

"The finance department will be taken over by people sent by Haohan Capital. The previous personnel will not be changed. The department manager will be transferred to other departments to take important positions. The same is true for the personnel department. Other departments will not be changed."

Hearing Lin Hao's words, many people breathed a sigh of relief. Only the managers of the finance department and the personnel department were like eggplants hit by frost. They had a premonition before that the new boss would definitely seize the financial and personnel rights.

Lin Hao will not let go of the financial and personnel rights. He can rest assured to arrange his own talents. Lin Hao did not have time to examine the loyalty of the previous department managers, so it is better to transfer them directly.

"The company will increase its investment in the future, and will focus on the development of series IP in the film industry, such as the existing "Fast and Furious" series and "Jurassic World" series, and will also develop new film series.

The company's animation will actively expand other excellent resources, such as the previous "Shrek the Monsters", "Popeye", and "The Smurfs", which are all very good. In this regard, the company can cooperate with Pixar Animation. I remember that Pixar Animation was acquired by Steve Jobs.

We have such a good relationship, I think Steve Jobs will be happy to cooperate with us. If not, he will acquire Pixar Animation and Pixar Animation's DreamWorks. I remember that his DreamWorks has been losing money."

Lin Hao's words made everyone's face tremble unconsciously. It was really acquired without a word. It's really good to have a rich boss. It's so cool.

"CompanyThere are only three Universal Studios under its umbrella now. I plan to open three new Universal Studios in five years, one in France, one in Hong Kong, China, and one to be determined. The entertainment projects in Universal Studios can be cooperated with other companies, such as Disney, Warner Bros., and other Hollywood companies. Our goal is to move all well-known movies into our studios."

A group of Universal executives were stunned. The previous ones were fine, but it was not easy for Universal Studios to cooperate with other companies. All companies attach great importance to copyright, especially Disney, which is simply outrageous.

Disney's protection of copyright can be said to be extreme. There is a joke that if you are stranded on a desert island and write SOS on the beach, it may not work, but if you draw Disney's Mickey Mouse and other cartoon portraits, Disney will definitely find you.

But in the previous life Universal still has cooperation with many companies, such as Warner's "Harry Potter" and so on.

There are also three new Universal Studios. It costs a lot of money to build Universal Studios, and the construction period is relatively long. It can be said that it is time-consuming, labor-intensive and costly.

However, Lin Hao has made up his mind, and no one dares to object. Ron Mayer is already thinking about whether to let Lin Hao inject capital into the company. After all, according to what Lin Hao said, it is definitely not supported by the finances of Universal Pictures.

Lin Hao is considering where to build the last Universal Studios. Originally, it was planned to be built in mainland China, but if it is built now, it will definitely lose money. China's current per capita income is not high.

Lin Hao is still thinking, and Ron Mayer has already spoken, "Boss, according to what you said, and with the current funds of Universal Pictures, many things cannot be done. Do you think you should slow down? "

Lin Hao is going to acquire Marvel, Pixar, and DreamWorks, which is a huge amount of money. He also needs to develop many IPs and build Universal Studios. The cost of a Universal Studios is several billion US dollars.

This is why there are only a few Universal Studios and Disney Studios so far. It is too expensive to build one.
