Back To 1995: Chapter 961 backhand
Chapter 961 Backhand
Facing Ted Sarando, Ertian, Whitman, Iger, Irene and others, Song Yang may not feel any difference from before, or in other words, Ted Sarando and the others , and dare not show any difference.
But that's the attitude you have when facing Song Yang and the big money owner. Put it outside and pick one at random. Irene, Iger, Whitman and others are all the top professional managers in America. One of them, you can even say it directly is a powerful figure!
Just like Isaac at this moment, he is the president of Marvel, but compared with Ted Sarando, he is a world of difference!
Western Films, which is in charge of the latter, is the highest-grossing film company in Hollywood today, and America has the highest ratings of "The Sopranos", "Grey's Anatomy", "Shameless", "The Big Bang Theory" and other crazy movies. The TV series that won the Emmy Awards were all filmed on the set that Isaac had seen just now!
Now, Western Films has acquired Universal, one of the seven major Hollywood film companies, and is still forcing Hasbro to surrender, aiming at Marvel. The youngest richest man", which made Ted Sarando say without exaggeration that he is the most powerful figure in Hollywood, even compared to Eisner, I am afraid that he is not far behind, and even slightly better!
Facing Ted Sarando like this, and Marvel who is still struggling to pay off his debts, one can imagine what it feels like.
"Western Films, want to buy Marvel?!" Isaac hesitated for a moment, and then told Ted Sarando his guess, a little unwilling, a little helpless, but helpless.
Ted Sarando snapped his fingers and corrected some of the mistakes in Isaac's words, "Western Films does want to acquire Marvel, but it's not me who wants to acquire it, but Mr. Bruno's wish!"
Without talking too much with Isaac, Ted Sarando moved out of Song Yang directly, which also expressed the attitude of Western Films. Song Yang's request, he Sharando and Western Films, no matter what, must Completed, there is no room for Marvel to refuse.
Hearing that it was Song Yang who wanted Western Films to acquire Marvel, Isaac was thankful, but he was helpless. Fortunately, with Song Yang's famous vision, he was optimistic about Marvel, which meant that the future of Marvel was, perhaps, really possible in the future. May roll over.
But what is helpless is that the current Marvel is really too weak. Facing a master of tigers and wolves like Western Films, they have no resistance at all. Marvel can't stand the pressure from Wall Street institutions and banks!
Seeing Isaac's expression, Ted Sarando did not delay any longer, and said directly, "For 600 million dollars, Western Films can use 600 million dollars to complete the acquisition of Marvel. The price is absolutely suitable for President Isaac!"
600 million US dollars to acquire Marvel is not low, and with Marvel’s debts, Western Films spent about 800 to 900 million US dollars to complete the acquisition of Marvel.
As for Isaac, he definitely made some money. He took advantage of the fire and picked up the leak when Marvel went bankrupt. No, the cost is not high. The purchase price of 600 million US dollars is enough for Isaac to recover the cost and earn a lot of money!
Hearing Ted Sarando's offer, Isaac showed hesitation on his face. Ted Sarando thought that he thought the offer was too low, so he couldn't help saying, "Isaac, you know, Western Films Marvel is not the only choice, Western Films only needs the IP of superheroes, Marvel, DC, and Dark Horse, for Western Films, there is no difference!"
Isaac raised his head and said to Ted Sarando, "Marvel can only ask for a purchase price of 500 million US dollars, but I want to retain part of Marvel's equity and get a part of Western Films' equity!"
These words made Ted Sarando stunned. He thought that Isaac thought the purchase price was too low, but he didn't expect him to make such a request.
Isaac is an absolute gambler who dares to miss Marvel when Marvel goes bankrupt, and now he wants to bet again, betting that Marvel, who was picked by Song Yang, will definitely get back up in the future, betting even In exchange for a small part of Western Films' equity, he can make a lot of money in the future. For this, he is willing to ask for 100 million US dollars less!
Taking a deep look at Isaac, Ted Sarando picked up the phone, "I need to report to Song..."
After a while, Ted Sarando put down the phone and reached out to Isaac, "Welcome to Western Films. In the future, you will still be the head of the Marvel department!"
While Wall Street and Hollywood were still focusing on Western Films and Hasbro, Western Films suddenly announced that it had reached an acquisition agreement with Marvel to acquire Marvel for $500 million and assume all of Marvel's debts , the estimated total acquisition amount is US$760 million!
This surprised the entire Hollywood. Western Films has gone crazy this year. Not to mention the box office of the "Lord of the Rings" movie, it has also acquired Universal Pictures, Marvel, and Hasbro one after another. Going to one of the Hollywood giants does not give Disney, Paramount, Sony Columbia, Fox and other film giants any room to react, and it also makes DreamWorks, Lionsgate and other companies, the envious eyes are red, there is a big Gold Master, it turns out that you can really do whatever you want...
Hasbro's board of directors didn't put up much resistance, and quickly agreed to the acquisition request of Western Films. After all, the price was really not low, but just like Isaac, they also asked for part of the shares of Western Films. Obviously also optimistic about the future development of the western film industry!
Houston, after Song Yang answered the phone, he returned to the lobby of the villa. There were several people sitting in the villa, including Greg, Marcus, and Ken Williams, the president of Sierra Games who just rushed over today. There was also a man in a suit and tie, and Greg and Marcus were there for him.
"Director Meeks!"
Song Yang stretched out his hand to the man sitting on the sofa, "Welcome to Houston, I've kept you waiting!"
The man in front of him can be regarded as Song Yang's "old friend". The former Asian director of the Federal Foreign Affairs Committee, Meeks, is now the head of the Federal Foreign Affairs Committee. Internally, one of the most powerful executives.
Meeks sat down, looked at Song Yang and said calmly, "Song is busy with Western Pictures' acquisition of Marvel?!"
Hearing Meeks, he seemed to be able to guess that the phone call just now was from Ted Sarando to Song Yang, but Song Yang did not show any surprise.
Meeks is showing Song Yang the power of him or the Federal Foreign Affairs Commission behind him. Song Yang is well aware of this. If he didn't have this ability, Song Yang would not have been able to find him in the first place.
The Federal Foreign Affairs Committee has more than 30,000 direct employees around the world. These are the people who can appear on the list, and there are some people who are not on the list. It is estimated that there are more. After the flowers are finished, how can they act as **** stirrers all over the world.
"President Meeks, you are really well informed!"
Song Yang said something to Meeks with a smile, and glanced at Ken Williams at the side. Song Yang could probably guess why Meeks came this time.
Sure enough, after Xiaoxiao showed his power, he said a few more words. Meeks looked at the people sitting in the hall and knew that they were all from Song Yang's side, so he no longer kept secrets. , asked directly, "Song, are you going to let ICQ acquire Xueleshan Games?!"
Hearing this, Ken Williams also looked towards Song Yang. He came here today to discuss this matter with Song Yang. Even the CEO can't change Song Yang's decision.
And when Ken Williams was about to board a commercial plane, he "just happened" to run into Meeks who came to find Song Yang together, and the two came to Houston together.
Song Yang nodded. He also knew what Meeks was worried about. Xueleshan Game Company not only has games, consoles, e-sports and other businesses, but also has a huge industry overseas, especially in Japan. Sierra Games Corporation!
Riben Xueleshan Game Company is fundamentally different from the American Sierra Mountain headquarters. It also owns the largest pachinko room business in Japan and a large number of online and offline gaming businesses. How bad is the game earning!
