Chapter 1456

"You say George Lucas is not going to sell shares in the polishing industry alone, but in Lucas pictures?" Feng Yu felt very surprised. This Lucas film industry was founded by George Lucas. Although there are not many film and television copyrights in hand, it is also valuable to rely on Star Wars, the trump card IP.

At this time, he said, "boss, I don't think it's strange. Lucas has invested more than 90% of his movie revenue in the polishing industry, which has created the outstanding special effects technology in the polishing industry. The polishing industry is the most profitable company under Lucas pictures

"If we take control of the polishing industry, it's equivalent to the loss of control of Lucas film's most advantageous business, and Lucas film may start to lose money."

"Since we have put on a necessary posture, Lucas would like to sell the whole package to us, which is better than the future of Lucas film industry, like MGM."

Feng Yu frowned. Is that true? If that's the case, Lucas will not sell it. With the trump card of polishing industry in hand, Lucas film can continue to stand in Hollywood.

Ralph began to explain: "boss, I don't think it's strange. Despite Lucas' wealth, they don't have much cash in Lucas film industry. During this time, Lucas just had an idea to make Star Wars into a TV series. It's said that the script has been written, but no one has invested."

"Doesn't Lucas even have the money to invest in a TV show?" Feng Yu couldn't believe that Lucas had two or three billion dollars. Even if he went to loan, he could get enough money.

Even if Lucas wants to shoot Star Wars TV sets, he can't shoot them all according to movies, right? So the investment in a minister's TV set is definitely not small, maybe even higher than that of shendun Bureau.

No, with Lucas' consistent improvement, the production cost must be higher than that of shendun.

"It's strange that Lucas is a person who doesn't like to borrow money. His company, Lucas pictures, including all the subsidiaries below, has no debt. I don't know what the people in his company think. It's easy to get a loan in the name of Lucas or in the strength of their company. "

"Besides, Lucas doesn't invest in finance, real estate and other popular investment industries, and focuses on film and related industries. From this point of view, he is the movie man in the mouth of a movie fan. And every year, he also takes out a sum of money to do charity. My life is not luxurious. "

"He wrote 50 episodes of TV scripts, but the budget for each episode was as high as 20 million dollars, which was the result of his efforts to compress."

Feng Yu's eyes are wide open. What's the matter? It costs US $1 billion to shoot a TV set? Who will invest in this TM!

Feng Yu won't invest anyway. He's not a senior Star Wars fan. Even if he doesn't, he won't invest. He can't recover the cost. The investment of this TV series is more expensive than that of some movies. It's impossible to make money at all!

Feng Yu remembered that the cost of the previous generation's Aegis board was $eighty million a season, and make complaints about the special effects. The plot was not compact enough, and the scene was not warm enough.

The production cost of the first episode is less than 4 million dollars, including all the costs. It also catches up with the boom of Marvel films and fans. How can you make money if you want four times as much as others in this episode?

If the production cost of an episode can be reduced to $5 million, Feng Yu will also consider investment. After all, the television has a longer broadcast time, and there are rights to replay, CD-ROM sales, etc., which should also be able to maintain the cost. If it drives the industries around the star wars, it may make money.

But even if it takes two or three years to invest $250 million, and then it makes $25 million on its books, it will lose even if inflation is removed.

It's hard to make money on TV than on movies, unless a TV series can be broadcast on multiple channels at the same time, but in that case, the first broadcast right may not be available.

"Because of this, he wants to invest by himself? And would rather sell the company's shares than go to the bank for loans? " Kameda Zhengxiong feels incredible. Although the loan interest is relatively high, compared with selling the shares of the company he founded, the loan is still the choice of more people?

But considering that Ralph's offer to Lucas is relatively high, maybe he is moved by it.

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

"At this time, after our evaluation, Lucas film industry is worth about 2.6 billion dollars. If we want to become a major shareholder, we need to spend at least 1.8 billion dollars to purchase 67% of Lucas film industry at a premium." Ralph said positively.

At the same time, Ralph hesitated. Of course, the wind and rain holding group can take out the money, but how much profit should be made from so much investment?

For example, if you invest $1.8 billion, one business can earn $1.8 billion in three years, and the other business can earn $1.0 billion in three years. Although you are making money, you feel like you are losing $800 million in this comparison.It's another $1.8 billion. This time, Feng Yu also felt that he had played a big role. In order to stop the expansion of Sony Pictures, he bought MGM, and then bought the cinema line. He also wanted to invest in Vita digital. Now, if he spent at least $1.8 billion to buy the shares of Lucas film, the real investment would exceed $10 billion to prevent Sony from expanding Ah!

That doesn't count. If we add this company to the Marvel Entertainment that Feng Yu loves, the number will be more exaggerated.

"Boss, let's not forget it. Let's take a share. In the name of our wind and rain holding group, even if it is a shareholder, it can also have a great say. " He suggested.

"No, since he gives us the opportunity to hold shares, it's better to hold shares. It's $1.8 billion, isn't it

Through these 1.8 billion dollars, we have controlled Lucas film industry and indirectly the polishing industry. This business is sure to make money.

"Do we still buy Marvel Entertainment? Do we still buy Vita digital? " He asked earnestly.

"Continue to acquire and expand our scale. Then we will integrate it together to establish the wind and rain entertainment group, and incorporate the wind and rain games into the group company. Then we will purchase several influential TV stations and merge them into the group to form an entertainment group! "
