New Line Films can be regarded as a small giant outside of the eight major film companies. Its most valuable thing is that it has all the personnel and equipment needed for the entire film shooting process, including directors, lighting, cameras, props, and post-production personnel.
In addition, it also has its own film and video distribution and rental market, and has the ability to independently produce and distribute films, which is insignificant to Time Warner.
? In the face of Time Warner's powerful distribution capabilities, New Line Films is purely an addition. Not only is its business scope highly overlapping, but its channel construction is much weaker, and it is not at the same level at all.
But for Marvel Animation, it can completely fill the gap in live-action film production and distribution, channel construction capabilities, and get the effect that one plus one is greater than two.
Of course, apart from the Big Eight, there are countless small and medium-sized film companies that Hollywood can choose from.
If the plan for New Line Film Company fails, Wang Yaocheng can focus on these small and medium-sized film companies.
? They include:
Amblin Entertainment, Morgan Creek Film Productions, Regency Entertainment, Village Roadshow Films, Legendary Films, VirtualStudios, Silver Image Pictures, Dark Castle Entertainment, etc., the choice is quite large.
Now, it is necessary to put the acquisition of New Line Films on the agenda. With this heavy bargaining chip, it will be able to occupy a favorable position in negotiating with Disney on the release of the animated feature film "Toy Story".
Does Wang Yaocheng have the strength to acquire new limited companies?
the answer is:
completely fine.
According to Netscape's current market value of more than 8 billion US dollars, the founder and chairman Wang Yaocheng has undergone several rounds of listing dilution and targeted placements, and still occupies 34% of the equity, worth as much as 2.7 billion US dollars.
Not to mention that it holds hundreds of millions of cash in hand, and its financial status is very healthy. Banks with large bills are willing to serve it and lend huge amounts of money.
? 10% of the shares originally mortgaged in Citibank, the loan of 80 million US dollars has already been repaid, and the shares have also been redeemed.
Citibank has been showing goodwill frequently, including Mr. Merck of Goldman Sachs, who graciously introduced the targets of mergers and acquisitions, all of which are eyeing Wang Yaocheng's thick and big wallet.
Under such circumstances, including the coveted Microsoft company, I am afraid that Wang Yaocheng would also like to see Wang Yaocheng spend a lot of money and spend his precious funds on places other than Internet companies.
Maybe, he will secretly help and become an unsung hero.
? Lay a good foundation for one day attacking Wang Yaocheng on the Netscape board of directors.
It's like a master's move, suddenly opening up an opening in a fight, creating an opportunity for the enemy to block his throat with a sword.
"Boss, Mr. Steve Schwarzman from Blackstone Investment is here, along with two other gentlemen."
"Ask them to come in."
"yes."
Wang Yaocheng stood up, extended his hand to Mr. Steve Schwarzman who came in, and warmly welcomed him:
"It looks very good, buddy, you are welcome."
"Hi, Boss King, we meet again, let me introduce you to two friends:
This is Mr. Huang Jianlan, a native of the Bay Island, the main fundraiser of the Asian Pacific American Support Elephant Party Fundraising Committee, and a very capable social activist.
This is Mr. Matsui, a state congressman, the head of the Asian American Work Organization, and one of the support groups of the Elephant Party. "
"Hehehe, welcome."
Wang Yaocheng had a smile on his face, and said something insincere, but his heart had already begun to "glow up", and he greeted Steve Schwarzman's mother.
This guy took it upon himself to bring these people with sensitive identities to guard against him, so that he was caught off guard.
Therefore, Wang Yaocheng made up his mind, besides talking about scenery, climate and food, other sensitive topics will be perfunctory.
After a while
Aware of Wang Yaocheng's ambiguous attitude, the two elephant party fundraisers politely left, but Steve Schwarzman stayed.
Wang Yaocheng asked dissatisfied; "Steve, this did not follow our previous agreement. I am puzzled by this and need an explanation."
"Boss king, staying out of politics is not a very smart corporate strategy. You need to stand in line and get the support of the party."
"You misunderstood me, Red Hat will never participate in sensitive politics, and will not take sides, whether it is Asian or ethnic minorities, nor whether it is elephant party or donkey party, we are just ordinary the enterprise, will not be mixed into this muddy water. "
Steve Schwarzman was puzzled; "And your $1 million check?"
"You can choose the object of support according to your own point of view. I will not ask about its use, even if it is used for personal expenses, I will not ask."
"My God! You are too cautious, Boss King, the check has already been used to support the Elephant Party's leadership election, I have already conveyed my support for you, and now"
? Steve Schwarzman spread his hands helplessly:
"The leader of the Elephant Party entered the White House. There is a supporter meeting held on the South Lawn. The pop queen Whitney Houston will sing on the spot. Red Hat also has an invitation letter. Your attitude puts me in a dilemma. It's a terrible thing."
"Red Hat can invite Mr. Huo Jiaguang, the deputy general manager, to participate. He is a Chinese-American and can express his support."
"Damn! That doesn't represent you." Steve Schwarzman was upset.
This old fox, I believe you are a ghost!
Wang Yaocheng didn't need to lift the veil of hypocrisy: "Steve, I can only express my support implicitly, I don't need to make it known to everyone, I'm just a businessman, just do my own thing well, and I'm not interested in these superficial scenery. "
"Okay, I'll settle this matter."
"Bingo, look this is the problem, we solved it very well, let's talk about some topics of mutual interest, for example, the acquisition of New Line Films, Blackstone Fund can participate as an M&A consultant."
"Oh, that's great!"
Steve Schwarzman lifted his spirits, and put away some of his unhappiness long ago.
In front of the green dollar bills, any deep differences and irreconcilable contradictions are jokes, not worth mentioning at all.
It is impossible for Wang Yaocheng to let these old and cunning guys be loyal to him and serve him wholeheartedly. The most reliable way is to use the fetters of interests.
? As an M&A consultant, Blackstone Fund Steve Schwarzman will obviously stand by Wang Yaocheng's side, deliberate for him, and try his best to facilitate this M&A case.
As for why Wang Yaocheng wanted to acquire a film company?
Hell, this has nothing to do with Blackstone.
"I will talk to Robert Shea. I have known him for more than ten years. This is a smart producer and a very talented guy.
? As a listed company, New Line Films did not perform well enough. Several of the films it invested in last year did not perform well, which brought huge difficulties to the operation of the company.
They are extremely short of funds. The public reports show that their liabilities have reached hundreds of millions of dollars, and they have continued to lose money for two consecutive years. They are preparing to sell themselves to Turner of CNN.
As long as our bid is reasonable, he has no reason not to consider us. "
"Then please ask Blackstone Fund to contact them on my behalf. I am still very interested in making movies. I think it is a great idea to acquire a film company."
"I have to say that you are a genius, Boss King. When others are playing private jets and yachts, you have already started to play a movie company. The key is that you can make money. It really is a brilliant idea."
"Hehe! I think so too."
Facing Steve's flattery, Wang Yaocheng accepted it frankly, looking young and frivolous with a sense of accomplishment.
After seeing off Steve Schwarzman, Wang Yaocheng felt in a great mood, and was going to take a nap to recharge his batteries. There were important events at night, so he had to maintain the strongest energy.
My own layout of one hammer here and one stick in the west really made those financial observers and investment bank managers dizzy.
Trying to break my head, I can't connect them.
It's true that the main business is Red Hat, and its subsidiary Optimus Bai Yuzhu is Netscape, but what the hell are Marvel Animation and Pixar?
And New Line Cinema, what the hell is this?
Are you planning to enter the entertainment industry? Thisis unbelievable.
In addition to the Playboy Group that will be discussed soon, it is estimated that everyone will be stunned, this span is too big!
? From software industry to animation, from film industry to light industry,
oh! correct¡¡
There are also department store retail and real estate, which are blooming almost everywhere, confusing people. (Remember the site URL: www.hlnovel.com - Didn't finish reading?
