American Fortune Life

Ikpilmut has been very unhappy over this period of time, yes, all kinds of upsets.

He can also be regarded as a rescue between Marvel Entertainment Group and Water and Fire. If it was not for the completion of the counterattack acquisition of Marvel who filed for bankruptcy in 1996 with two other shareholders, Marvel would not know what it would be split into. appearance.

For ten years, I managed the business carefully, and recovered a little bit of the IP rights that had been sold cheaply. When applying for bankruptcy, the superheroes sold by the bankruptcy committee at the price of cabbage returned to Marvel's arms again.

Unexpectedly, now that Marvel is finally relieved, the old guy of Stan Lee has betrayed the board of directors and turned to support Kevin Page, facing the group company.

Not to mention how aggrieved Aike is now. He also knows that if Marvel Entertainment Group continues to develop well, Stan Lee, who is mostly in the coffin, cannot be separated from his body. This kind of unruly management makes him unable to control Marvel. Film industry, let the face of a part-time job.

To say what he wants to do now is to fire Kevin Page, a self-righteous guy. The problem is that he is very entangled. Kevin Page with the support of Stan Lee and the editor of Marvel Comics is not that good. Especially after Kevin Page completed reclaiming the IP rights of Iron Man and the IP rights of core members of the Avengers such as Hulk, Thor, and Black Widow, it was even more difficult.

When Marvel's internal fighting was in full swing, a message from Wall Street calmed down the strangeness of Marvel Entertainment Group. Some people questioned, some people were tempted, and more people were worried.

In the next few days, this news was continuously mentioned by people in the heart, and later it was published in the press.

Whether in the media world or the comics world, fans of superheroes have begun online demonstrations.

Andy Smith, this new wealth myth, the upstart in the publishing industry is about to acquire Marvel Entertainment Group, and Bank of America will support him throughout the process to complete the acquisition.

The combination of the two giants has made everyone see that things are feasible.

Don't say anything that loves this industry and loves the comic industry. In front of the beautiful knife, whatever persistence will look pale and weak.

The directors of Marvel Entertainment Group are also tired of the lengthy quarrels at each meeting, tired of the half-dead struggle that Marvel has not been able to bring them huge profits for a long time, and some people want to take over. This is undoubtedly in the middle of it, one by one in private I hope to stand in the same camp and bite a piece of meat from this young rich man who has just got a huge amount of cash.

While these shareholders are dreaming, and Marvel veterans represented by Stan Lee are worried, the news continues to be heated, but there is no following, the news is still that news, but neither Andy Smith nor Bank of America seems to be at all As expected, no one contacted Marvel, let alone a huge acquisition.

Just like this, every day, some shareholders who want to get rid of their baggage can't sit still. If it weren't for the largest individual shareholder of Aike who was pressing everyone, someone would have come to their door.

For Andy, because there is no bridge that can communicate, he will not be able to escape the fate of being slaughtered when he takes the initiative to come to the door. He will not do that wrongdoing. The world economy is about to end soon. Now if it costs a huge amount The acquisition of Marvel was absolutely stupid.

And those shareholders who want to sell Marvel shares do not have a channel to communicate with Andy, which is undoubtedly the main reason to keep the acquisition in the rumored stage.

Okay now, Ambassador Merkel's enthusiastic construction, now the bridge is there, but as the eo and the largest individual shareholder of Marvel Group, he becomes hesitant and tangled. He really wants Marvel to grow in his own hands. He still has a lot of affection for Marvel, but he is still a businessman in the first place. In the face of the huge amount of cash available, no one can be indifferent.

Under Merkel's introduction, Andy's expression was slightly surprised, and he held Aike's hand very unexpectedly and said, "Mr. Pilmut, this is really surprising. I didn't expect to see you here."

"Oh, Mr. Smith is afraid that I don't know, I am also a Jew." Aike Purmut had a smile on his face, but he couldn't calm down. He was too young, and he was so successful at this age that he had to be shocked. And admire.

Merkel smiled at the right time: "But recently, many newspapers have linked you two together, Andy, is that news really true? Now many people are guessing outside, how much are you going to give Qian bought Marvel. "

Standing side by side with Andy, a somewhat restrained and smiling Galgado with a slightly stunned side face looks up at Andy with a faint smile. As a person of Se, American culture is naturally no stranger. Heroes are an important part of American ideological output. Who wouldn't know Spider-Man, Iron Man, Black Widow, Captain America?

With a bright smile, Andy glanced sideways with a shocked expression, and looked at Merkel, chuckling lightly: "I once thought of this, but ..."

He looked at Ekpilmut and spread his hands, and made a helpless expression. There seemed to be something inexplicable. After half of it, there was no following.

Ekpilmut had some tangles before whether to sell. To be honest, he was still tempted. Who doesn't like beautiful knives, especially for the rich who invest most of his money in the capital market, the current economic situation is a bit weird. .

People are like this. When they say they have something to buy, it ’s very difficult to give up, but they are tangled with economic benefits. When others do n’t buy it, they are even more depressed. It seems that their things have become worthless. I regret why Not sold in the beginning.

"Oh, what a pity? I think the value of Marvel Entertainment Group is unquestionable, are you worried about the price?" Merkel saw Ike's embarrassment and depression, and he also hoped to serve as a bridge to facilitate, after all, this It will make him and the two people build a friendship, and also leave a good reputation and good impression in the high society.

"Oh, in fact, there is nothing, mainly because my think tank evaluated Marvel's company. I can't agree with Marvel's corporate culture. My Xing grid is too strong. For each company's strategic layout There are plans. My subordinates need to implement them step by step according to the strategic layout. I hate subordinates. I am not good at corporate management, but I am willing to decentralize and trust my professional manager. I agree that professional matters are left to the professional. People deal with.

However, the interior of Marvel Entertainment is too complicated to form an effective management system, especially after I understand the situation of Marvel Pictures ... hehe "

After shrugging his hands, Andy began to talk. He didn't care about telling some of his shortcomings. These words were all told to Ike. When he mentioned Marvel Pictures, Ike Pilmut His face became extremely embarrassing and ugly, especially when he saw the sneer and disappointment in the corner of Andy's mouth, thinking that inserting two sharp knives into his heart made him uncomfortable and angry.

The atmosphere immediately became cold. Andy took the empty wine glass and watched Ike, who was sinking in water opposite him, drank the red wine in the glass, but if he looked at it deeply, he did not improve the atmosphere.

After seeing that the two needed some private space to talk, Merkel smiled and said to Galgardo: "Miss Gado, it's almost time for the interview and photo shoot, let's go over. The two are sorry for being lost."

Galgardo is also a smart girl. Zhan Yan smiled at Andy, leaving Merkel's arm and left. In the corner, only Andy and Depressed Gecko who looked at Gado's back were left. .

"It seems that Mr. Smith has a clear understanding of our company's internals, and I am more convinced that the rumors of the acquisition are true. I wonder what Mr. Smith is going to pay?" As a smart Jewish businessman, Ike would not I believe Andy Smith will ridicule Marvel for no reason.

Andy was slightly surprised that the other side's opening was beyond his expectations, but he would not admit to buying, let alone naively think that a price can make a business, a billion-dollar acquisition, there are several It can be decided by words, it is not the time!

Andy shook his head and smiled, and shrugged, "I think you may be disappointed, Mr. Pilmut. I cannot accept a group that cannot be controlled by subsidiaries. If it is my company, then capable professional managers dare If I act beyond the professional bottom line, I will fire him without any consequences, because I cannot accept ambitionists and betrayers without self-knowledge! "

The expression on Ekpilmut's face went wild, and the endless anger and trembling lips could be clearly seen.

Andy didn't care about the other's anger, but Ike was an old fox after all. He soon completed his anger, calmed his mood, calmed down, and said meaningfully: "I'm more sure that you have the ambition of Marvel Group. ! "

Ike would say that it is impossible not to be angry with the young man in front of him, but what the other party said is also true.

Although he did not know the Eastern proverbs, praise was a buyer, and applause was a idler. This sentence, but the Jewish business mind and business experience are first in the world, and it is not difficult to see that Andy has a willingness to acquire Marvel.

Not working at Marvel, I don't know that the forces inside have increased and complicated. Stan Lee, who has created most of the superheroes, is an old **** who relies on the old and sells the old.

After all, the Dark Horse Comics Company was formed by a group of cartoonists who left Marvel Comics. It really irritated the old guy. He took people and superheroes to restart the stove, and it really cried, even if the IP rights were not taken away, Every time you want to use the superhero copyright, the trouble of finding the company is enough for the company.
