After buying Marvel, I became the king of Hollywood

"As expected of a tycoon!"

Kevin made a compliment.

Of course, he also thinks so in his heart, this person is not simple, if it is someone else, he would definitely open his mouth, but he is only doing a normal business, and this favor is considered to be owed.

"Have a meal together?"

Kevin nodded.

Kirk Kerkorian took Kevin towards his small restaurant.

After a sumptuous lunch, Kevin left Las Vegas with a satisfactory result.

For specific negotiations, there are naturally professionals. All Kevin has to do is to pay the corresponding cash flow.

However, this wave has emptied most of the cash flow that Kevin has earned through hard work in the past few years.

Of course, this is not a loss.

When this transaction is completed, it means that Kevin has his own third company.

Dawn Films, Marvel Entertainment, and this film company with a rich history in Hollywood, MGM.

Oh, by the way, and P Company.

But Company P is the film company that Kevin will never show off.

Just silently make money for Kevin over there.

On the bright side, these three film companies are the only ones that can appear.

...

Three days later, word spread across Hollywood that control of MGM had fallen into the hands of Steve Kevin.

The presidents of other film companies showed ugly expressions on their faces. Everyone knew what it meant. Kevin would have less and less opportunities to cooperate with the outside world in the future, and they would face tremendous pressure.

Only the executives of MGM were overjoyed.

Although it will take some time before this deal is completely completed, all MGM executives have already regarded Steve Kevin as the sole boss of MGM.

In this form, when Kevin stepped into the company again.

Countless executives called Boss Kevin directly.

Kevin greeted each of them with a smile, and then came to Leiter's office.

"Leite, you call all the executives, I want to have a meeting."

"Yes."

Leiter barely controlled his joy and responded loudly.

After a while, Leiter returned to Kevin and said:

"Boss Kevin, they are already waiting in the meeting room."

There was irrepressible excitement in Rhett's words.

An old company with humanity has this kind of charm, and its employees will regard the company as their home.

MGM's successive losses are also due to the fact that it has raised too many old employees.

Of course, relatively, these old employees are also considered the wealth of the company.

I can only say that it depends on what the boss of this company thinks.

And these employees are also happy to see the prosperity of the company.

Everyone is very happy to be able to replace Steve Kevin as the boss of the company.

"Okay, let's go."

Kevin responded and walked towards the meeting room.

Kevin and Leiter stepped into the office.

"Boss Kevin!"

"Boss Kevin!"

"···"

More than a dozen executives greeted Kevin one after another.

All of them had looks of anticipation on their faces.

Kevin nodded, and then came to the front of the conference room, which is where Leiter usually sits.

Looking at the executives present, Kevin was also satisfied.

MGM has completely fallen into his hands, which means that his career has entered a new stage.

The biggest advantage of a large film company like MGM, and ordinary small and medium-sized film companies, is not only its business perfection, but also its personnel.

It also has complete global distribution capabilities.

That's the top priority.

A big-investment production, if it is only released in the United States, it will be considered good if it only keeps its capital.

In order to make a profit, in addition to the subsequent copyright, it also depends on other markets.

If you do not have your own distribution capabilities, even if it is released globally, the profits will be exploited by the distributors.

And with this channel, at least, no one can sanction MGM.

There is only one biggest factor that determines whether MGM can grow, and that is the quality of movies.

Thinking in a deeper direction, the idea in Kevin's mind is that Chenxi Films will never go public.

All movie copyrights are concentrated in the hands of Chenxi Films, so as to ensure that they will not be controlled by capital.

As a partner, MGM shared profits and obtained copyright authorization, but Chen Xi could grab MGM's throat at any time, which was the best situation.

On the other hand, for these company executives, as long as Kevin is the boss, there is actually no difference in these operations.

As a listed company, MGM can raise funds for Kevin and expand his influence.

This kind of structure is the best, can enjoy the benefits brought by listing, and can avoid being controlled by capital to the greatest extent.

This is the future previewed in Kevin's mind.

These arrangements for the future of MGM just flashed through my mind.

Kevin sat down, and only then began his speech as the boss.

"Hello everyone!"

"Here, I am very honored to take over the shares of MGM from Mr. Kirk Kerkorian."

"Thus owning a controlling stake in MGM."

"As the new owner of MGM, I look forward to working with you happily in the days to come so that MGM can return to its glory days."

The executives applauded quickly.

After ten seconds of applause, Kevin waved his hand to stop.

The applause disappeared, and everyone looked at Kevin, waiting for Kevin to give new instructions.

"Everyone, MGM currently lacks a core movie, just like the 007 series that brought MGM to glory back then."

"And I, after going through a series of selections, have chosen my target."

Everyone's attention was quickly concentrated.

A series of works favored by Steve Kevin, this is like a golden mountain.

Looking at the executives present, Kevin took out a newspaper from his pocket and handed it to everyone present.

Some executives, reading the serialized stories in the newspaper, read their names.

Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone?

This strange name is confusing.

However, since it was a story recommended by Steve Kevin, the people present naturally had the patience to read this story.

·····

On the other hand, England.

In a small cafe in Edinburgh, a woman with blond hair and a haggard face was writing something on the table.

Beside her, a cute little girl was sipping a sip of sweet milk from time to time, looking around with weird eyes.

But from beginning to end, she didn't make any noise.

In her young heart, she knew that at this point in time, she could not disturb her mother.

Joanne Katherine Rowling, after writing a short Harry Potter story, shredded the paper and threw it in the trash.

From the painful expression on her face, she was very dissatisfied with this plot, but couldn't think of a better plot for a while.

This made her very painful.

This is the most uncomfortable stage for the author, Calvin.

Once in this situation, first of all, it is impossible to write, even if it is forced to write, it will be very confusing, and I don't know what I am writing.

Looking at her daughter beside her, Rowling forced herself to put away her bad mood again.

She smiled and kissed her daughter. Seeing the sweet smile on her three-year-old daughter, Rowling regained her mood and continued her writing.

Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone, she has already completed most of the progress.

But she has yet to find a suitable publisher.

On the contrary, some newspapers accepted her submission, but the simple serialization did not cause much repercussions, and did not improve the plight of her life in any way.

Currently, after the divorce, in order to obtain full custody of her daughter, she has given up claiming child support from her father.

Apart from the weekly allowance of fifty pounds, there is no other income.

It is a lot of pressure to support herself and her daughter. For this reason, Rowling is constantly writing.

At the same time, she submits articles to major publishers, hoping to be selected by one of the publishers and publish her works, so as to obtain rich income.

.....

At the same time, Dawson, who traveled thousands of miles from the United States to Edinburgh, England, hurried to this cafe after finding Rowling's trace.

After looking around, after seeing a blond woman with a three-year-old girl, Dawson immediately determined the target in his heart.

She is the author of Harry Potter named by Kevin, Rowling.

Although he didn't know why, Kevin asked him to come all the way here just for such an unpublished story, but out of his trust in Kevin, he still faithfully carried out Kevin's instructions.

After all, if it's not important, Kevin has no reason to let him come.

Since Kevin arranged this way, it shows that Kevin attaches great importance to this matter.

Then he just needs to follow Kevin's instructions.

Walking towards Rowling, after coming to her side, Dawson said:

"Hello, are you Ms. Joanne Catherine Rowling?"

Chapter 206 Buying Out Harry Potter

"you are?"

Rowling was still writing, when she heard someone calling her name, she turned her head.

I saw Dawson.

After several years of his career as president, Dawson has gradually developed an unusual demeanor, and he is a big shot at first glance.

Rowling politely asked about his identity.

At the same time, he racked his brains to think about whether he had known such a big man before.
