But...De Crean was very annoyed. He had been in the American society for many years and was quite famous among the international upper class. Even the rich and powerful people from various countries were polite to him when they met him!

Wouldn't it be very embarrassing if Fang Mingyuan was left speechless like this?

"Hmph! Mr. Fang, if it's only 3.3 billion US dollars, do you think I would still sell MGM?" Deckerian said with a sullen face, "I think you should understand that I am not short of money.

.Just in 2002, I bought a resort for $5.9 billion."

Fang Mingyuan laughed and said: "Of course you have the right not to sell, but I am just worried that MGM's debt will become more and more, will it..." Fang Mingyuan did not finish what he said, but everyone understood the meaning.

.

Deckerian felt very depressed. Isn't this a waste of words? If MGM can be a cash cow and a chicken that can lay golden eggs, why should he sell MGM? Isn't it good to leave it to his family?

?The problem is precisely that MGM's financial situation has not been very good in recent years. The box office performance that had just improved slightly in the past two years was completely reduced by the "Wind Whisperer". The total investment was as high as 1.3

It cost 100 million U.S. dollars, but its final box office was only over 70 million U.S. dollars. And MGM could actually get even less!

Today, MGM already has a debt of two billion US dollars. In another ten or eight years, to what extent will its debt accumulate? Will it be insolvent?

It was precisely because he himself felt that MGM would only become a burden in his hands if it continued like this, that he thought of transferring it for the third time.

"Ahem, Mr. Deckerian, actually I think you can change your mind, which will be more beneficial to you and MGM!" Mitsuri Uda coughed and interjected.

"Hmm? Miss Uda, you might as well talk about it." Dekerian glanced at Uda Mitsuri and smiled.

"Little Mr. Decrian, if you don't mind, can you show me around your garden?" Fang Mingyuan said to Dom.

"Ah? Ah..." Dom was startled for a moment, then nodded quickly and said, "It's a great honor! Please come with me." As he said that, he pulled his wife. It was obvious that Uda Mitsuri's next move

The words may not be suitable for them to listen to. And it sounds like Uda Mitsuri's construction may be more beneficial to them.

"Thank you!" Fang Mingyuan stood up and said, "Mr. Dekerian, I'll excuse you for now!"

De Crelian was also a little surprised, but he still said calmly: "Mr. Fang, please!"

Compared with Uda Mitsuri's villa, the area of ​​Dekerian's villa is almost the same, and it is older. However, the small garden in the villa is quite unique. Fang Mingyuan stayed here for a while.

.

Mr. and Mrs. Dom accompanied him. Although they were extremely curious, they only talked about some romantic things with Fang Mingyuan and did not open their mouths to test them. This made Fang Mingyuan look at the two of them again.

"Mr. Fang, I wonder if the next movie of Hong Kong Kumho Film Group will be "The Matrix"? Or "I Am Legend"? Or "Resident Evil" and "The Last Day"?" Mrs. Dom asked with a smile.

, "I believe that the majority of movie fans who have whetted their appetites for "Terminator 3" are already looking forward to it?" Nowadays, I don't know how many media are watching every move of Hong Kong Kumho Film Group, and any filming they start

A movie will attract the deep attention of many movie fans.

Among them, "The Catastrophe" is said to be a work that pays tribute to the world's oil exploration industry, while the novels, games and animations of "Resident Evil" have already set off a horror craze around the world. I don't know how many Biohazard fans are there.

Looking forward to seeing the visual horror on the big screen.

Although "The Matrix" has no special reputation, it is another trilogy independently created by Hong Kong's Kumho Film Group. After "Pirates of the Caribbean" and "The Lord of the Rings", two films that have made the world famous

After the trilogy that was refreshing to everyone in the world, Hong Kong Kumho Film Group once again created a trilogy, and invested heavily in three consecutive filmings, which has to make the majority of movie fans full of curiosity about it.

As for "I Am Legend", it is because Fang Mingyuan has publicly declared that it is his work that he has worked hard on for many years!

"If there are no surprises, "The End of the World" and "I Am Legend" will be released this year. "The Matrix" and "Resident Evil" will be postponed to next year." Fang Mingyuan replied happily. In fact, if not

Due to the impact of the epidemic in the first half of the year, these films will be released this year, but now we can only postpone some of them to next year.

"Ah..." Mrs. Dom's voice was filled with regret.

"She likes the novel "Resident Evil" very much, so she is looking forward to the release of "Resident Evil"." Dom explained.

"Mr. Fang, how much do you think the box office of "Resident Evil" will be?" Mrs. Dom suddenly said.

Fang Mingyuan pondered for a moment before saying: "It's hard to say, but even if it is popular, I don't think its box office will reach a very high position."

Mr. and Mrs. Dom nodded knowingly. Fang Mingyuan did not need to remind him of this common sense. Due to the bloody and terrifying scenes, "Resident Evil" will definitely be classified as a movie for viewers under the age of 17 according to North American standards and must be accompanied by parents or other adults.

Within the range. And some older people, those with high blood pressure, or heart disease, to be honest, need someone to accompany them. As a result, the box office results will naturally be worse than those of movies with lower restricted ratings.

However, it would be a mistake to think that "Resident Evil" is not as profitable as other movies produced by Hong Kong's Kumho Film Group. "Resident Evil" has multiple platforms, but many movies cannot match it.

"Resident Evil 2" was originally bundled with Microsoft XBOX, and was later launched on other platforms. Although the final sales volume was not as good as that of "Resident Evil", which was also released on multiple platforms, it was still a considerable sales volume that could surpass that of games released in the same year.

.And novels, animations, comics, games, and movies are produced on multiple platforms in turn, influencing each other and promoting each other. The comprehensive profits created are actually extremely considerable, enough to make any film company jealous.

"Regardless of whether we can finally reach a cooperation, I welcome you two to attend the premiere of "Resident Evil" next year!" Fang Mingyuan said with a smile.

Mr. and Mrs. Dom thanked them repeatedly. Although as a couple, it was not difficult to get an invitation letter to the premiere, but being invited by "Fang" in person was an honor in itself.

"Mr. Fang, please tell Mr. Schwarzenegger that if we really want to run for governor of California, our husband and wife will vote for him." Dom smiled again.

The impeachment crisis of the governor of California has become increasingly clear. It has basically become a foregone conclusion that the current governor of California will be impeached. Among the candidates who have expressed their intention to participate in the new California governor’s election, Schwarzenegger’s

The voice was the loudest, with many Californians openly supporting him.

Although in the process of publicity, Schwarzenegger was attacked by his opponents, but due to Fang Mingyuan's previous reminder, Schwarzenegger had already solved many issues that might affect the election in advance.

As a result, the attacks by his opponents were either "unfounded" or "misrepresented." After several similar incidents, voters in California responded to the revelations made by Schwarzenegger's opponents.

No longer interested at all.

"Thank you, I will definitely convey your support to Arnold." Fang Mingyuan said with a smile. Of course, when he came to the United States this time, he wanted to meet with Decorian to discuss the acquisition of MGM, and it was also scheduled to meet with Schwarzenegger.

matters.

Fang Mingyuan glanced at his watch. It was estimated that the time was almost up, and then he proposed to return to the conference room.

When the three of them returned to the conference room, Mr. and Mrs. Dom were pleasantly surprised to see that Dekerian was telling Uda Mitsuri about the famous paintings on the wall of the living room with a cheerful face, and there was no trace of the slightest hint of displeasure.

The moment Fang Mingyuan walked into the conference room, he noticed that Uda Guangli nodded slightly at him, and he immediately felt more confident.

He believed that a shrewd person like Dekerian could not understand that the suggestion put forward by Uda Mitsuri was in the best interest of both parties. In fact, the plan was very simple, that is, Dekerian would trade all the stocks in his hands at an appropriate price.

If the price is transferred to MGM Holdings, he can then acquire the shares held by other shareholders of MGM, and these shares account for more than 20% of the company's total shares. In this case, MGM Holdings can

Guaranteeing his controlling rights, Dekorian can also share in the dividends brought about by MGM's recovery. These dividends are enough to fully compensate for Dekorian's "lost" profits.

The most important part of this plan is how to make Deckerian believe that MGM will be reborn from the ashes in the future. Holding MGM stocks will get considerable dividends in the future. Fang Mingyuan's joining will

This program was given effective endorsement.

The subsequent talks returned to the atmosphere of friendly negotiation. Although Dekerian did not express his agreement on the spot, he had clearly agreed to consider it.

Fang Mingyuan will naturally not push it again and again. It is normal for such a large transaction with an acquisition amount of billions of dollars to take one to two years. Moreover, Fang Mingyuan believes that Dekerian will be more anxious than himself by then.

At Dekerian's insistence, Fang Mingyuan and Uda Mitsuri had lunch with Dekerian's family in the villa before saying goodbye and leaving.
