Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    By now, Li Mingbao had finally understood this deal.  For 20th Century Fox, they will not lose money at all by merging with News Corporation.  After all, the current Twentieth Century Fox company can be regarded as the highest price. Unless the strength of Twentieth Century Fox company has substantial growth again, otherwise their prices will continue to be executed at such a high level.  It's basically difficult. As long as a movie breaks their box office record, it becomes inevitable that the company's stock price will plummet.  Originally, there would have been no bully to buy the company at this time, but now that such a bully has appeared, and he is also a very powerful bully, whether it is for the company or for personal considerations, John will  There is no reason not to sell it, so even if the company is his heart and soul, it must be sold when it needs to be sold.  Li Mingbao even guessed that when John sold the company, he did not just sell it, but a part of the cash, plus some shares of News Corporation, then he could directly transform from the major shareholder of 20th Century Fox to News Corporation  of small shareholders.  Although this change is obviously quite uncomfortable for John, after all, he would rather be the head of a chicken than the queen of a cow.  But this also depends on the situation. News Corporation¡¯s interests are greater than those of Twentieth Century Fox, and the company is still growing rapidly. Compared with Twentieth Century Fox, which has stagnated in growth, News Corporation¡¯s interests are obviously greater.  The development potential is much higher than that of Twentieth Century Fox, so even if he becomes a minority shareholder, his actual power will be greater than before.  So this deal is very cost-effective for John.  For Murdoch, such a deal is also very cost-effective.  He is in the news business, and what he needs is news. And in the United States, what news can be bigger than the news of directly buying a Hollywood giant company?  Not only that, but coupled with his interest in celebrity news and Twentieth Century Fox's position in Hollywood, after acquiring such a company, it can be said that he will immediately have a large news base in the United States.  Of all the news companies, where would a News Group like him, which controls a giant company, be more advantageous?  ??????????Although there will definitely be losses in terms of money when completing this acquisition plan, the gains in other aspects will definitely be greater than this loss.  With such a plan, how could an old fox like Murdoch not take action?  Besides, he didn't really spend a lot of money to buy Twentieth Century Fox, but used shares in exchange for mergers and acquisitions. In fact, the funds used were not too much.  Both parties benefit, but for Li Mingbao, it is difficult to determine whether this situation is good or bad.  After all, the relationship between him and News Corporation has no relationship at all, and now his company in Hollywood has not actually passed the protection period. Even if he now takes actions in this regard and wants to form combat effectiveness in a short period of time,  Basically it's difficult.  ¡°And if 20th Century Fox was really integrated into News Corporation, it is still unknown whether the company at that time would still have a good relationship with its DreamWorks as it does now.  After all, the current market situation of DreamWorks depends to a large extent on the relationship between Li Mingbao and John, as well as the production quality of DreamWorks. For a company like 20th Century Fox that focuses on movies, supporting DreamWorks  The factory is of great benefit to them.  But the problem is that Murdoch is not a professional filmmaker, and his focus is not on the film industry. Others are men who want to become the king of news. It is hard to believe how much attention they will pay to the film industry.  The importance they place on their own company is still unknown, let alone a company like DreamWorks that only cooperates with 20th Century Fox. The possibility that they care is too small.  "And if they don't care anymore, it will be difficult for DreamWorks to ensure their own safety. This is definitely not good news for Li Mingbao.  "Yes, this is indeed a win-win situation for us. If News Corporation can continue to develop at such a high speed, even if I am no longer the major shareholder of 20th Century Fox, for me,  It¡¯s still good news, after all, it¡¯s too difficult for giant Hollywood companies to take further steps, and the room for development is too small. But News Corporation¡¯s room for development is broader than ours,¡± John said with a smile.  "But this may not be good news for me. Although I don't know Murdoch, I also know that he started out as a journalist. The acquisition of 20th Century Fox is the most important thing to him.  The most important thing is probably the television network within Twentieth Century Fox and the entire company's distribution channels. As for Twentieth Century Fox's own film business, I think even if he attaches great importance to it, it will only be limited. In this way, like  Our dream factory?For a company protected by Twentieth Century Fox, life will be difficult in the future.  "Li Mingbao said pitifully. Hearing Li Mingbao's words, John said helplessly: "I'm really sorry. After all, this acquisition of News Corporation has great benefits for us. Basically, in addition to  At this time, under normal circumstances, no one would have any interest in us at Twentieth Century Fox.  ¡± To put it simply, except for tycoons like News Corporation who have other purposes, generally no one with a clear head would have any idea of ????Twentieth Century Fox. Even those on Wall Street have to care about costs.  Problem. So if we don¡¯t sell it at this time, it will be impossible for 20th Century Fox to have such good conditions after someone breaks the fragile box office record. John¡¯s approach is quite capitalist and he will hold on to it.  It doesn¡¯t matter if Taoist friends don¡¯t die but are poor Taoists, and this other person also includes Li Mingbao, a person who has a good relationship with John. Of course, after John said this, he immediately said: ¡°But I think both of us,  In fact, there are more possibilities for cooperation.  I don¡¯t know if Mr. Li would like to hear it?  "    "cooperate?  What to collaborate on?  "Seeing that Twentieth Century Fox has inevitably fallen into the mouth of News Corporation, at this time, Li Mingbao really didn't know where John could cooperate with him. Although John had previously said that Twentieth Century Fox would cooperate with Dream  Factory cooperation, but after learning that News Corporation was going to acquire 20th Century Fox, Li Mingbao understood that John's previous words were just polite, but the problem is that now John really has the idea of ????cooperating, which surprised Li Mingbao.  Li Mingbao had a confused expression on his face, and John said with a smile: "Is it the simplest film collaboration?  Wasn¡¯t our previous cooperation all about this aspect?  Mr. Li, since you have such a good film talent, you can produce so many scripts at once, and the box office is also good. Moreover, you also said that it would not be difficult for you to replicate such an action in the United States.  If that¡¯s the case, then why can¡¯t we cooperate?  Although movies produced by 20th Century Fox now account for the top three in the North American box office list, such results are simply brilliant, and only MGM could have such capabilities back then.  But why can't we go further?  For example, occupying the top ten in the North American box office list?  Or the top fifty movies, we at Twentieth Century Fox account for half of them.  If so, the price News Corporation paid when it acquired Twentieth Century Fox would definitely be higher than it is now.  ¡°And the release of so many high-box office movies in a short period of time is also of great benefit to Mr. Li.  After all, our company, 20th Century Fox, is only distributing, and the money you can make, Mr. Li, is not a small amount.  As long as multiple movies can be released in a short period of time and all achieve good box office results, the money that Mr. Li can make from the movies will be at least one billion US dollars. With this much money, for you, Mr. Li  It's not a small number.  If you have money to make, why not make it?  " "I can make a movie, but if I do, it will cause public outrage, okay?  By then, I will still have troubles with you, Twentieth Century Fox, which is quite a big deal. This is basically equivalent to declaring war. Can other giant companies watch us happily making money?  This is not making money, this is causing trouble.  "Li Mingbao is quite not optimistic about John's proposal. It seems that by doing this, you can indeed make a lot of money in a short time. But in this world, who can make such crazy money, who doesn't have a huge background behind it?"  With the influence of power, it is definitely not a good thing for a small person like him to get rich overnight, but a disaster. If he really does this, he will directly confront those giant companies. The better situation is that.  In the future, in the Hollywood film industry, even if he invests in movies, there will be countless people involved, and they will never give him the opportunity to be alone. If he is not lucky, he will basically stop trying to make money in Hollywood in the future.  For those capitalists, people who steal their money will never be treated politely. In the past, they could directly eliminate them physically, but now it is more troublesome, but they can also eliminate a disturbance like Li Mingbao in other ways.  The role of the market. For the sake of billions of dollars that may not be available, Li Mingbao completely closed the door to the North American market. This kind of transaction is a loss no matter what, and it is a shame that John can think of such a way to commit suicide.  It's just pushing him into the fire pit. John can withstand such pressure, but can he, Li Mingbao, take a step back? This matter is very risky for Li Mingbao, but for John, just  There may not be any risk, ?Now that he is planning to sell Twentieth Century Fox, what kind of trouble the company will encounter in the future will have little impact on him.  Anyway, as long as the acquisition is successful, the trouble will be with Murdoch, the acquirer, and he, John, can stand aside and watch the fun.
