Hollywood Starts with Animation

Chapter 62: Acquisition of UPN Television Network

  The negotiations between Wald Pictures and Paramount have fallen apart!

   After all, in the face of their "good intentions" to buy shares, Zhu Ke, who is thinking of small peasants, can't accept it.

  Zuke loves money very much, that’s right.

   But Zhuke is the kind of person who doesn't like trouble. Once Paramount successfully acquires shares, it will inevitably add a lot of troubles in future work and life, such as participating in equity competitions, internal personnel struggles, etc., which will involve a lot of energy.

  Zuke is reluctant of course.

   "I came here to enjoy life, not to intrigue."

   Although the negotiation with Paramount's shareholding collapsed, other cooperation can be carried out.

   Three days later.

   CEO Victor represented Wald Pictures and signed a series of copyright contracts with Paramount for "Juneo".

   mainly includes:

  First: Paramount invested 30 million US dollars to purchase the overseas copyright of "Juno" from Wald Pictures, including DVD, video tape copyright, and associated toys, clothing, keychains and other peripheral copyrights;

  Second: Paramount invested US$2 million to purchase the rights to produce the sequel to the movie "Juneo";

   Then there are some other terms, but nothing.

   In the end, the amount involved in the contract was as high as US$32 million.

   In the beginning, Zhu Ke did not intend to sell the full overseas copyright of "Juneo", but intended to sell only the overseas distribution rights of the film, but when he thought of the various shady releases in Hollywood, it could only be so.

   Zhu Ke is not careful.

   is really the bottom line of big Hollywood companies is too low!

   Even if they sign the issuance contract, they can get the overseas box office share, but they can legally encroach on Zhu Ke's interests as long as they use their hands and feet.

   Of course, there is good news.

   After the signing of the contract, the pressure on the media and theatrical line of "Juneo" produced by Wald Pictures was also resolved because of Paramount's action.

   "Since Paramount has purchased the overseas copyright of "Juneo", they certainly can't just watch the North American box office of "Juneo" suffer a heavy blow. After all, the North American box office is the vane of overseas box office, which involves their interests."

   Victor said.

   Zhu Ke was deeply impressed by this remark.

   In fact, the same is true!

   After the contract was signed, in less than 5 hours, the major theaters in North America readjusted the schedule of "Juneo" and increased the screen more or less.

   "啧啧啧~!"

   Zhuke sighed: "A big company is a big company. It hasn't been long since we started, and the number of screens for our movies has recovered to more than 2,400."

   While sighing that Paramount is strong, Zhuke feels more powerless in his heart.

   "Damn it! Without a perfect distribution network, without the presence of media power, I will encounter this kind of useless incident in the future."

   At this moment, Zhuke thought a lot in his mind.

  The reason why the six major Hollywood is so powerful that they dominate the entire Hollywood like a king, overlooking the rising and falling clouds, is it not because there are complete global distribution channels, and the existence of media power throughout the United States and even the world?

   "I want to distribute channels!"

   "There are also TV stations, media and newspapers!"

   "If I have these, then I will see who would dare to **** with me!"

  ...

9 pm.

   Zucker’s villa.

   Today, we welcomed two guests.

   Kang Di, former ace negotiator and barrister Zhang Wei.

   "You two, I'm sorry to invite you over so late, so I won't make any detours." Zhu Ke pretended to be sorry.

  噗噗~!

   Zhuke hadn't finished speaking, but Kang Di, who was drinking water, couldn't help but spray out.

   "Condy, you are really disgusting."

   Zhuke was disgusted with it.

Kangdi quickly waved his hand and said with a smile: "Man, you say I'm sick? I think it's you. We haven't seen each other for a few months. When did you learn to speak like a'gentleman'? It's not the one I know at all. The'crude' young man."

   "Okay, just pretend I didn't say it just now."

   At this moment, Zhu Ke is also quite speechless.

  How could I be a vulgar young man? Can't I grow? Isn't it possible that there is a feeling of being admired for three days?

   The barrister Zhang Wei on the side smiled and did not speak.

   Next, Zhu Ke will share his thoughts on acquiring TV stations, media and newspapers, as well as the difficulties in the previous period.

   "Zuke, you want to buy a TV station?"

   Kangdi couldn’t help but burst into laughter: “Man, you don’t have a fever, do you? Do you know how much it costs to buy a TV station or build a media network? Do you have the money?!”

   Three consecutive questions, it's a reminder!

   Zhu Ke did not answer Condy’s question directly, but pointed at the barrister Zhang Wei on the side.

Zhang Wei knew it, and immediately said solemnly: "Mr. Condy, please allow me to introduce the gentleman beside me. Zhuke Wald, he is the owner of the chain stores around SpongeBob Squarepants House and the third echelon of Hollywood. The boss of Erde Pictures, the owner of a building worth 9 million US dollars in Silicon Valley, the full shareholder of California Standard Bank, the owner of the copyright of "The Talent Show", the largest individual shareholder of icq... ."

   After some words came to an end, Kangdi was stunned!

   "I'm going~!"

   "Old man, haven't we seen each other for a few months? Why do you have so much money now?!"

   "He still holds 2% of Yahoo shares."

   "Also, are you still the biggest individual shareholder of the icq that has exploded recently?"

"Oh my God!"

   "Your assets are over 100 million, right?!"

  ...

   At this moment, let alone Condy, I would be shocked if I replaced it with anyone.

  Who would have thought that a few months ago, a person who often drank and slapped himself and chatted with him would become a billionaire in an instant?

   "Condy, you are wrong. My assets are not more than 100 million dollars, but more than 200 million US dollars."

   Hearing Condy’s words of astonishment, Zhuke was a little proud.

Well, although Zhu Ke’s current achievements may not be as good as many traversers, as an ordinary person, being able to work out such a wealth of billions in just over a year is already quite proud. thing.

   "Old man, do you still think I don't have the money to buy TV stations and set up media channels?" Zhu Ke looked at Kangdi in a pretentious manner.

   The voice fell, what else can Condy say?

   "Damn capitalist~!"

   Well, Condy can only curse a few words.

  ...

  ...

   Kandi is a talent, Zhu Ke knows this very well.

   In the more than a year of getting along, Zhuke has invited him to join his company many times, but he refused. In his words, he doesn't want to be restrained anymore, he just wants to be a freelancer.

   I have to say that in the matter of acquiring the TV station, Kangdi's actions are impressive.

   In less than a week, I basically settled on a TV station, oh no, it is a TV network with two TV stations to be precise.

  ——UPN TV network!

Sometimes I have to sigh the wonder of fate. The owner of UPN TV network is the Viacom Group, the parent company of old friend Paramount~www.wuxiaspot.com~ Speaking of UPN TV network, there may not be much in the future. People know, but when it comes to CW's name, some people have heard of it.

   "Smallville", "The Flash", "The Vampire Diaries"...

   The above American dramas are all produced by CW Television Network.

   CW Television Network is a public television network in the United States. It was established in 2006. Its predecessor was based on Warner’s WB Television Network and Paramount’s UPN Television Network.

   "Zuke, UPN TV network is definitely the best TV station for your current needs."

Kangdi explained: "This company was established in 1992, and the staff of each department is relatively complete. After the broadcast, the price is not high due to year-round low ratings. According to the statistics company's estimation, the purchase price is about 3000. ~$32 million."

   More than 30 million US dollars? !

   Hearing this, Zhu Ke couldn't help rolling his eyes.

   got it~!

   Because of the sale of the full overseas copyright and sequel production rights of "Juneo", the $32 million that had just been acquired from Paramount, seems to be thrown back to them again.

   However, Zhuke is not a pity.

   Although the money is gone, but somehow I started a TV station, don’t you think?

   "This is all right, "SpongeBob SquarePants" does not need to find a broadcasting platform; um, yes, there is also the North American copyright of "Talent Show", you don't need to sell it, you can do it yourself!

   For a time, Zhuke thought a lot.

Huh?

   The National Real Wrestling Tournament (WEE), it seems that we can do it too!
