[US Entertainment] From web dramas to Oscars

Chapter 85

Hearing Hughes' words, Fopper smiled. Indeed, if Chang Lai's inferences were made, Fopper would not be able to spend so much money.

After Hughes finished speaking, he helped Fopper calculate how much his assets were.Regarding these situations, Hughes, who had previously helped Fopper file his tax returns in April, was actually very clear.

According to the actual situation, Goldfinger Studio is much smaller than Lionsgate.Although the movies released have great returns, Goldfinger Studios is strongly favored.But even so, the market value of Goldfinger Studio will not exceed US$5 million, that is to say, financing and listing 30.00% of the shares, and the maximum capital increase will only bring about US$[-] million in cash to Fopper.

And what is the market value of Marvel?Want to privatize and delist Marvel before merging into the group of Goldfinger Studios.First of all, it is necessary to master at least 50.00% of the shares of Marvel.According to the market price, these share prices cannot be won without 13 billion US dollars.If other premium costs are included, at least $15 billion is needed to complete control of Marvel.But now there is absolutely no way to fear the economic strength at hand.

compared to last year.Only the first half of 2005 was over.Fopper's current economic situation is actually very good. The box office of "Mr. and Mrs. Smith" and "Buried Alive" can be regarded as a big explosion.The box office share is even if the inherent funds of Goldfinger Studio and the share of Yuqing and several people are removed.His current assets have exceeded [-] million US dollars.And this asset is only counted as Fopper's profit from the movie.You know, what did Fopper start with?Novel!

In China, Fopper successfully entered the 2004 author's income list. The royalties as high as 1000 million made Fopper enter the top ten for the first time on the list.In 2005, 1500 yuan has been earned so far.Plus the film and television rights sold.Fopper alone can raise about $1000 million or so.Afterwards, if Goldfinger Studio goes public, then another [-] million US dollars will be added.Plus Goldfinger Studio's benefits from advertising, movies, and cooperation with peripheral companies.At present, the funds that Fopper can mobilize are about [-] million U.S. dollars.

30 million US dollars may be considered a lot of money for many people.It even said that because Fopper's assets are now private property, there is no way to disclose them to the public.Otherwise, Fopper would definitely be on the Forbes rich list.Of course, not the general list.It is the list of young rich people under the age of [-].Fopper, who never drinks, smokes or spends money indiscriminately, is jaw-dropping about the speed at which he has accumulated funds.Even now, Fopper lives in the same rented house as before.

"It is true that there is not so much money now." Shrugging, Fopper said: "And even if I raised 15 billion US dollars so-so, I would not be able to buy Marvel just like this. After all, all the funds were spent at once. Then we will be at a loss.”

"Since you also know about this, is it interesting for you to talk about it?" Hughes complained.

"I'm not saying that there is no chance. I think it is possible to delist Marvel and merge it into Goldfinger Studios through the acquisition of existing scattered shares and the merger of Marvel's shareholders, isn't it? And if this is the case, It is not even necessary for Goldfinger to be listed first. When Goldfinger Studio and Marvel merge and re-list, it will definitely produce a better chemical reaction.

"Okay, then you should discuss these with Yuqing and the others." Shrugging, Hughes said that although he owns the shares of Goldfinger Studio, he has no decision-making power: "I don't think the current plan is feasible. After all, the shareholders of Marvel are all businessmen. If you don’t see a rabbit, you don’t spread an eagle. You let them delist and then merge with your Goldfinger studio to re-list... I think you have to let them know you first. The Goldfinger Studio can give them enough benefits. Although every movie of the Goldfinger Studio is developing well now, but this does not mean anything. This is exactly what will happen, but they are worried that if there is something wrong with the Goldfinger Studio If so, the volatility of their property will increase. Moreover, merging and listing is not as simple as you imagine. The taxes paid by the company during the listing are definitely enough for you to drink a pot. Fopper, this is the United States .is a tax haven."

"..." If there is an anime image now, you will find that Fopper has received a knowing blow: "Since you think it's not good, let me discuss something with Yuqing and them." Regarding Hughes' level, Fopper Still very trusting: "Since this doesn't work, our only solution is the original acquisition?"

"That's right." Nodded: "That's the only thing I can think of. Now, apart from getting a huge amount of money by raising funds through the listing, the only thing I can do is get a large amount of money from somewhere." In fact, Fopper refused to go public before showu Hughes agrees with this.Because now showu is still on the road of rapid development, and the financial status is also good, and it is not yet time to go public to collect money.America is, after all, a capitalist society.The principle of supremacy of interests still exists.Of course, Hughes is also very supportive of Fopper's Marvel plan.Otherwise, he would not propose to use showu to go public in exchange for funds.

"A large sum of money...I'll think of a way." After a moment of silence, Fopper spoke.

"Let's find a way together. But I think it's okay to postpone this plan for two years. So we still have time." Hughes shrugged and said.

"That's the only way to go." The point of view that I came up with on a whim was rejected again.This feeling is really not a good feeling.And the reason why it was rejected was because of money.

money!money!money!Fopper felt he was obsessed with money all the time.Of course, this is also the same as his growing ambition.He wants to have a hand in Marvel.

'Are you really going to chase profits with those capital predators? 'Finance is always cannibalistic.With Fopper's small body, he might be swallowed up by financial predators in an instant.Although Fopper now has some financial memories in his memory, things like capital are subject to change.Maybe because of Fopper's huge capital investment, the financial strategy suddenly changed. This is not impossible.Finance will always be a toy played by those high-ranking predators.Want to break a piece out of their mouth.It is simply more difficult than ascending to the sky.

"Ah!" Sneezing and sniffing, Fopper said to Hughes: "That's all right, I'll go back and ask Yuqing later, I just made an appointment with Yuqing to talk about something .If Yuqing agrees, we will try it. If not, then this plan will be shelved for the time being.”

"Okay." Hughes nodded: "I still have some things here, so I want to go. Your cold has started again. You'd better go to the hospital to have a look."

"I'll go when I have time." Nodding, he and Hughes separated.After coming to Yuqing and talking to Yuqing about what he had just discussed with Hughes, Yuqing naturally said a word.

"no!"

"Why?" Although he knew that he would be rejected, Fopper still felt like asking.

"Of course it's unrealistic." Shrugged: "Although Goldfinger Studio seems to have grown up. With its own film library, it also uses a lot of money to invest in those independent films. But in fact ?” There are very few independent films that have been invested in the past six months that have achieved success, and to use another adjective, there are basically none.It is already very good to be able to save capital.Most of them won't even get their money back.A film company must have sufficient funds to be successful.If we use so much money to carry out a plan that you may use in the future.Then it can only be said that this plan cannot be implemented at this stage. " Yuqing said.

"I see." After being denied by two people in a row, Fopper now understands that his acquisition of Marvel is impossible recently: "You really threw cold water on me."

"How about I show you something exciting?" Yuqing asked.

"for example?"

"For example, I got the film and television copyright of "The Twilight Saga." Yuqing didn't give a shit, and said directly: "To be honest, this novel is really well written, and the love in it is really moving..."

"Really?!" Hearing Yuqing's words, Fopper was very happy.The Twilight series is simply second to Harry Potter.It's not just the book that has sold well all over the world.And even the derivative movie is a mess.So being able to get "Twilight" is simply adding a huge weight to Goldfinger Studio.

"However, there is another thing that may make you unhappy." Before Fopper was happy to play, Yuqing said again: "This unhappy thing may be serious enough to affect your mood. Please be mentally prepared."

"Tell me, it made me nervous." Fopper thought about it carefully, and besides his own financial problems, he still didn't think of anything worth encountering.

"Well... Alexia feels that Chris needs a relationship. So he is convincing Chris to have a relationship with the outside world."
