China Entertainment King of Science Fiction

Chapter 148 Drawing a pie

DreamWorks paid 15% of the equity in its first round of financing and received 180 million in funding, and in this round, Chen Jingxing is prepared to raise at least double the amount.

In contrast to Xu Wenshen's concerns, several shareholders of DreamWorks were very happy that Chen Jingxing wanted to raise funds again, but they also had some doubts.

Because according to the current momentum of DreamWorks, the funds should be relatively abundant. The 50 million revenue from the North American copyright has been received. Calculating the domestic box office based on the 1 billion landing point, DreamWorks can get at least 150 million in revenue, plus Shanghai

In addition to the box office in other markets, DreamWorks' box office and distribution copyright income from the "Signal" movie project can reach more than 250 million yuan.

And there are also online copyrights. Overseas online copyrights are not in a hurry to sell them, because North American theaters have relatively high requirements for the window period, and their window period is as high as 90 days.

However, it is expected that overseas online copyrights will still have to be sold to Netflix. The main reason is that Netflix really has no strong competitors at this time. Blockbuster’s online business has long been wiped out, and other streaming media such as YouTube TV, Amazon IV, etc.

Not catching up, D+ relies entirely on self-made TV series adapted from comics.

When the copyright reaches the eight-digit level, Netflix's bargaining power is quite high. After all, it is difficult to find another buyer for a copyright of this magnitude. It is estimated that the overseas network copyright price of "The Signal" can reach about 15 million US dollars.

, if calculated according to this figure, DreamWorks can also get more than 45 million yuan in revenue.

Domestic online copyright income is somewhat complicated. For a movie of the size of "The Signal", the income is generally calculated according to the number of paid effective clicks. The total income of this part may reach more than 100 million. Meng

The factory also gets half of it.

Based on this calculation, DreamWorks' total revenue from the "Signal" movie project may reach 350 million.

This amount of funds is simply too rich for a small and medium-sized film and television company like DreamWorks. Chen Jingxing must at least find a plausible reason to convince shareholders of the necessity of this round of financing.

For ordinary viewers, this news is naturally more shocking than any financing. After all, the movie "Signal" is still in theaters. Mengbuding is suddenly going to launch a TV series version, and Deng Chao and Sun Li are invited to play the protagonists.

This is definitely big news in the entertainment industry.

This financing was led by Penguin Video Network and Fantasy World Network, with Tianrun and United Cinemas participating in the investment. DreamWorks received 370 million yuan in funding, of course at the expense of Chen Jingxing's shares being diluted to 74%.

Chen Jingxing’s reason is that DreamWorks needs to carry out diversified operations, such as increasing capital holdings in Mexico, making some necessary investments in the upstream and downstream of the film and television industry chain, seizing text and comic copyrights, incubating big IPs, and building sustainable development capabilities.

There are also acquisitions or establishment of distribution companies overseas, building a complete distribution network, and involvement in horizontal industries such as TV dramas and animations, etc.

In fact, companies such as Fantasy World Network certainly want to continue to expand their investment in DreamWorks. They just asked the investors to draw a big pie for them before financing, just for peace of mind. It was just a routine matter. Chen Jingxing used diversified expansion strategies to fool them.

After passing by, they followed the donkey downhill.

[Oh, this is a big bad movie, but the TV series should still be expected]

[Since it is the TV series of "Signal", why not let the original actors continue to perform? Lei Jiayin and Luo Chen played very well]

In fact, Chen Jingxing is really the leader of the capital bubble of the film and television industry. Since the first valuation of 1.2 billion yuan in financing, more and more paper billionaires have emerged in the film and television industry.

An empty shell company, no project is claimed to be valued at 1 billion.

A film company with only two films obtained the cinema distribution. There are only one director, no two directors, no heavy assets, and not even tangible assets. There is no signing artist.

Is the valuation of more than 3 billion?

The most important thing is that he is not an Internet company.

It seems that after obtaining the huge amount of financing from the Dream Factory, it is ambitious. Soon the Dream Factory announced a new project, "Signal" TV series.

And this time the Dream Factory's financing once again ignited the imagination of the investor in the film and television industry, and the pace of hot money poured into further acceleration.

Deng Chao and Sun Li joined together, playing the male and female protagonists of "Signal".

In fact, Dream Factory is not found to find other interesting investors, but four shareholders such as the Fantasy World do not want other investors to enter the market, and Chen Jingxing does not urgently introduce the needs of other investors. Therefore

It is a closed -door financing, and other film and television companies in the circle and even the investors who are interested in DreamWorks outside the circle are over without even hearing the wind.

In theory, the role of the old criminal police played by Deng Chao should be the second male, but now that the Deng Chao has decided to play, then he is naturally a while.

To this time, except Luo Chen.

Most people have seen a new way to invest in wealth, and a few people are beginning to worry about the foam in the film and television industry.

[Many works version of the work and the movie version of the actors are different]

[Even if it is different, it is basically a bigger coffee in the movie version, this is still upside down]

After the news came out, not only was envious in the circle, but even the circle was shocked.

After all, four companies such as Fantasy World.com are shareholders of the Dream Factory and the second round of financing. If they do not follow up, then the shares will be diluted. Even if Chen Jingxing is an absolute major shareholder

Investors draw a big cake.

In addition to engagement of asset investment -this will make investors worry, Chen Jingxing has re -engraved the classic diversified expansion strategy of a film and television company, and let employees make PPT for shareholders to see it.

[Are Deng Chao and Sun Yan as the protagonist? It's exaggerated, when is the two of them appeared in the same drama last time?]

[... upstairs, the last time is the wall of painting]

Of course it is impossible to carry out "Gravity of the Ground", it will directly scare investors away. Investors are definitely not to let you throw a lot of risks in a heavy industrial film project with major risks.

funds.

[Only I follow the TV series version of what is the TV series? I feel that the movie is very complete, and the story expands this story less than dozens of episodes]

[Who is the director? Or Chen Jingxing? As long as it was Chen Jingxing, I watched it]

[It should not be directed by Chen Jingxing, when the signal and the source code were announced, they clearly stated that the director was Chen Jingxing. This TV series only said that the actor and the director did not be the director, so it was not directed by Chen Jingxing.

[Then I am relieved, Chen Jingxing should continue to make a movie. Don't really cross the border, it is easy to drop the force]
