After buying Marvel, I became the king of Hollywood

"rent?"

"What money does that make?"

Griffin smiled contemptuously.

"Selling a DVD, I can make tens of dollars, and renting a DVD, can I make five dollars?"

"Of course, and more."

"In fact, although your DVDs are in great demand in the market, people's purchasing power is deeply suppressed."

"Do you really think men are so rich?"

"In terms of purchasing power, a man is not as good as a dog raised by a woman."

This rule that applies to Chinese men is actually universal across the world. It is determined by the physiological structure of men and women, not human power.

Chapter 201 Future Development of "P"

Scolding that men's purchasing power is not as good as dogs?

Griffin was about to refute, but was suddenly a little speechless.

Since the launch of the feminist movement in the United States, they have been proud of asking men for money. Under this trend, a large number of American men have become cash machines.

The purchasing power of men is really average.

Even when buying movies, it is usually every two to three months.

Is it because they don't want a change?

Of course not.

As a man, Kevin understands men's psychology better. When there is such a need, he needs freshness every time. This is the nature of a man.

The reason for not buying is undoubtedly that the pockets are tight.

In addition, buying this kind of thing can't be done openly.

If Kevin can provide a rental and sales platform, it will definitely be able to release this part of the purchasing power, and Kevin will also provide hidden services.

For example, the disc is hidden in a normal video disc. A young guy wants to buy it but is embarrassed. Kevin can completely pack it into a normal disc, such as the Pirates of the Caribbean Collector's Edition.

From the point of view of the buyer, it is natural to understand the truth of this.

These methods can squeeze the last wool from men with such low purchasing power.

But Kevin said so much, and can not impress Griffin.

After all, Griffin himself is making money now.

Let him abandon what he has and work for Kevin, which is unacceptable to him.

"Director Kevin, but you still haven't given me the biggest reason to sell the company."

Griffin said seriously.

There was a gleam in his eyes.

Kevin knew at a glance that it wasn't that it couldn't be sold, but that there was no reason to sell it.

That being the case, Kevin gave him a reason.

"20 million dollars, to acquire your company, you retain [-]% of the profit share of the shares, after resignation, this part of the profit share will be automatically voided."

"You can't leave your job within three years, and then you can do whatever you want."

"The [-] million US dollars will be paid in three years."

Griffin's attitude suddenly softened.

"Hey, deal."

Griffin knew that Kevin was buying him for three years with [-] million U.S. dollars. His film company was actually not worth much, and it was worth a few million dollars.

It is impossible for him not to agree to this kind of money-giving business.

Looking at the excited Griffin, Kevin was also very happy.

He is confident that he will make a profit in the first year, that is to say, in fact, what he actually paid is the first year's 3000 million US dollars, and then he is paid with the money earned by Griffin's company.

For specific details, another lawyer will be in charge of the negotiation.

What Kevin has to do is to grasp the development direction of the company. Looking at Griffin, Kevin directly ordered:

"Next, Griffin, you're going to create a whole new way to rent DVDs."

"I call it membership subscription."

"As long as users sign up for membership with us, they can permanently hold a certain number of DVDs within a certain period of time, and there is no limit on the date of return. As long as the membership has not expired, the discs will always belong to them and can be replaced at any time. , At the same time, we also want to give some discounts to the old members who have opened membership."

"We have to do it, the more we see, the more money we save."

"..."

Kevin is almost copying Netflix's development model. Relying on this model, Netflix has defeated all enemies and become the leader in the DVD rental and sales industry.

At present, what Kevin wants is to occupy the adult DVD market first.

Then proceed to the normal DVD market.

As for why, Kevin had to pay such a high price to recruit the short and fat man in front of him.

Kevin can only say that knowing the development route of the industry does not mean 100% success.

There are too many influencing factors, but Kevin always insists on one point.

Talent is the most important thing.

Having talents and a good development path are the biggest factors on the road to success.

As long as the control of the company is in his hands, Qian Kaiwen is willing to give it to him, and the talent will stay at a price that others cannot offer.

Griffin's eyes became brighter and brighter. From Kevin's mouth, he heard the horror of this rental system. With this special rental system, Kevin is likely to dominate the adult DVD market.

"Boss, you are a genius."

Griffin was not convinced until this time.

The whimsy and business plan that Kevin spoke of was simply perfect.

If it wasn't for the intimidation of Steve Kevin's status in Hollywood, he would have wanted to go out and do it alone with Kevin's business plan.

When I thought about the consequences of offending Steve Kevin, I thought about it again and again, and with the addition of 20% of the shares, it seemed like a lot.

Griffin still put away these unwanted thoughts.

Kevin's face remained unchanged, not afraid of him taking his own business plan to go it alone.

Today, Kevin's status is no longer something ordinary people can offend.

As a smart person, he would not make such an unwise move.

After all, Kevin also left him a 20% dividend.

"Stop flattering me. I'll arrange someone to go to your company with you later and hand over the matter."

"You have to act as soon as possible for the specific work arrangements."

Griffin nodded.

He is also very eager at this time, and wants to implement Kevin's business plan as soon as possible.

I briefly chatted with Griffin about the specific pre-operation methods, including how to promote the membership system, and after establishing physical stores in those places in the early stage.

Only then did Kevin arrange for someone to go with him to hand over the new company.

After arranging this matter, Kevin once again set his sights on the plans of the Marvel universe.

The next day, Kevin rushed directly to Marvel.

......

"Dandy, what's the reputation of the latest Spider-Man series and the series of Iron Man?"

Stan Lee asked directly to the editor-in-chief.

Editor-in-chief Dandy quickly replied:

"Word of mouth is quite good, and people agree with the two new images of Spider-Man and Iron Man."

"One after another praised their character design, and if they agree with superheroes, they should be down-to-earth."

Stan Lee nodded.

Steve Kevin's cinematic universe project has become his mission for the rest of his life.

He has devoted himself wholeheartedly to this cause.

Affected by the general environment, the sales of comics of all comic companies are declining. Therefore, Stan Lee simply does not ask about sales.

And pay attention to word of mouth.

Unlike the tall, big, and top superheroes in DC comics, the superheroes in Stan Lee's hands pursue grounding.

Tony Stark, the iron man with a poisonous tongue, an arms business, and a kind heart.

Talkative, kind, good friend of New York residents, Spider-Man Peter Parker.

These superheroes with minor flaws are more popular with the public than superheroes who are tall and flawless.

Chapter 202 Preparing to Acquire MGM

The future DC is also aware of this, so in the movie, the DC superheroes are no longer so perfect.

Of course, Nolan set the tone, dark style.

It is a nightmare that Warner can never get rid of.

Kevin strode into Marvel Entertainment.

Kevin Feige is dealing with the daily affairs of Marvel Corporation with a sad face, before the movie universe is officially launched.

In the comics market, Marvel was beaten steadily by DC.

Originally, although DC comics were very popular, in fact, Marvel comics also had their own fan base. Unfortunately, after the release of Batman and The Dark Knight.

Everything has changed.

The market share of DC comics in the comics industry has suddenly increased, from the original 40% to 55%.

In contrast, Marvel dropped from 35% to 30%.

Moreover, the market share is still declining.

As for some other comic companies, they succumbed to the two major companies and shared the rest of the market.

"Fitch, why is your face so ugly?"

Kevin came to Fitch's office, and as soon as he entered, he saw his ugly face.

"Brother Kevin!"

Fei Qi was overjoyed at first, and then replied:

"The company's daily revenue is getting less and less..."

"It's not your fault, this is my business strategy."

Kevin took the blame directly on himself.

"What you have to do is to promote the comics of the movie universe series."

"How's the recent word-of-mouth, character design?"

Only then did Fitch put away his sorrow, and announced the sales and word-of-mouth of the newly restarted comics such as Spider-Man, Iron Man, Hulk, and X-Men.

Kevin nodded as he listened.

In general, the comics follow the setting of the movie universe that Kevin needs, and have also won the public's reputation.

As for the decline in sales, it is nothing to do.

After all, such a big environment, coupled with the success of Kevin's own filming of the Dark Knight for DC, has squeezed Marvel's living space.
