Extraordinary Genius

"You said that George Lucas does not intend to sell the shares of the polishing industry alone, but to sell the shares of Lucasfilm?" Feng Yu felt very surprised. This Lucas film is George Lucas. Created by one hand, although there is not much film and television copyright in hand, but it is worth a lot with the ace of the Star Wars.

Masako Kameda said at this time: "Boss, I think it is not surprising. Lucas put more than 90% of the income in these films into the polishing industry, which made the polishing The industry's outstanding film special effects technology. The polishing industry is the most profitable company under Lucas Pictures."

"If the polishing industry is controlled by us, it is equivalent to the loss of control of Lucasfilm's most advantageous business, then Lucasfilm may start losing money."

"Since we have put on a position that is bound to gain, Lucasmo is better to sell the whole package to us, so that it is better than Lucas's filming in the future, like the former MGM."

Feng Yu frowned, is that really the case? If this is the case, then Lucas can't sell it. With the ace of the polishing industry in hand, Lucasfilm can continue to stand in Hollywood.

Ralph explained: "Boss, I think this is not surprising. Don't look at Lucas's net worth, but Lucasfilm has not much cash, and this time, Lucas I just had an idea to turn Star Wars into a TV series. It is said that the script has been written, but no one is investing."

"Is Lucas himself not even investing in a TV series?" Feng Yu couldn't believe it. Lucas's net worth, there are two or three billion dollars, even if you go to the loan, you can borrow enough. The funds are right.

Even if Lucas wants to shoot a Star Wars TV, can't he always shoot the TV according to the movie? Then, for a ministerial TV set, the investment is definitely not a small amount, perhaps even higher than the SHIELD investment.

No, in the constant pursuit of Lucas, this production cost is definitely higher than the SHIELD.

"It's very strange that Lucas is a person who doesn't like to borrow money. His company, Lucas Pictures, including all the following subsidiaries, has no debt. I really don't know how people in his company are. I think that it is very easy to get a loan with the name of Lucas or the strength of their company."

"And Lucas does not invest in finance, does not invest in other popular investment industries such as real estate, and concentrates on making movies and related industries. From this point of view, he is the filmmaker in the movie. And he also returns every year. I have given out a sum of money to do charity, and my life has not been luxurious."

"He created fifty episodes of TV series, but the budget for each episode is as high as $20 million, which is the result of his desperate compression."

Feng Yu’s eyes are wide open, and he is taking a TV set. He wants a billion dollars. Who will invest in this tm!

Feng Yu will not invest in anyway. He is not a veteran star war fan. Even if he does, he will not invest. This will definitely not cost back. This episode is more expensive than some movies. It is impossible to make money!

Feng Yu remembers that the production cost of the previous Aegis Bureau's production season was 80 million US dollars, and the special effects were spit out, and the plot was not compact enough, the scene was not warm enough.

The production cost of one episode is less than four million dollars, including all costs, but also catches up with the Marvel movie, when fans are skyrocketing. How can you make money if you want to be four times more than others?

If you can reduce the production cost of an episode to five million dollars, Feng Yu will also consider investing. After all, the TV broadcast time is longer, and there are replay rights, CD sales rights, etc., and should be able to protect the original. If you drive the industry around the Star Wars, you may be able to make money.

However, even if it invests 250 million US dollars, it takes two or three years, and then earned 25 million US dollars in the book, then it is still losing money.

It is more difficult for a TV to make money than a movie, unless it can be played on multiple channels of a TV series at the same time, but in that case, the first broadcast rights may not be sold.

"Just because of this, so he wants to invest by himself? Then he would rather sell the company's shares, and not go to the bank loan?" Kamen Masato felt incredible, although the loan interest was relatively high, but compared to the company shares he founded himself. , loans or more people's choices?

But considering Ralph's offer to Lucas is relatively high, perhaps it has touched him.

"Then they Lucas film, how are they going to sell?" Feng Yu asked.

"At this time, after our assessment, Lucasfilm is worth about 2.6 billion US dollars. If we want to become a controlling shareholder, then we must spend at least 1.8 billion US dollars to buy Lucasfilm at a premium. Sixty-seven shares." Ralph is the color.

At the same time, Ralph was hesitant. The money, the wind and rain holding group, of course, can be obtained, but with so much investment, how much profit should be cost-effective?

For example, the same investment is 1.8 billion US dollars, a business can earn $1.8 billion in three years, and another business can earn $100 million in three years. Although they are making money, but this comparison seems to be a loss. The same as $800 million.

It’s another $1.8 billion. This time, Feng Yu also felt that he was playing big. In order to block the expansion of Muni, he acquired MGM, then acquired the cinema line, and thought about investing in Vita Digital. Now, if you spend at least $1.8 billion to acquire the shares of Lucasfilm, this time, in order to stop the expansion of Sony, the real investment can exceed tens of billions of dollars!

This is not yet counted, Feng Yu's favorite Marvel entertainment, if you count this company, the numbers will be more exaggerated.

"Boss, don't forget it, we have a good stake. With the name of our wind and rain holding group, even if it is a shareholding, it can have a big say."

"No, since he gave us the opportunity to take control, then it is well controlled. Is it $1.8 billion? Buy it!"

Through this $1.8 billion, Lucasfilm was controlled and the polishing industry was indirectly controlled. This business is definitely profitable.

"Where is the acquisition of Marvel Entertainment? We also acquired Vita Digital?" Kazuo Kazuo asked seriously.

“Continue the acquisition, expand our scale. Then integrate them together, set up the Wind and Rain Entertainment Group, incorporate the wind and rain game into the group company, and then acquire several influential TV stations and merge them into the company. Form an entertainment group!"
