Hollywood Starts with Animation
Chapter 244: Zhu Ke
, The fastest update to Hollywood’s latest chapters starting from animation!
MDS (Midas) Pictures.
It is a film company focusing on film production, distribution, and DVD distribution. It is located in the Burbank area, just one street away from the Wald Films Building.
"Mr. Brandon Midas, our Golden Shuguang Group is here with sincerity."
Hashimoto Taro solemnly looked at the sad man in front of him.
Brandon Midas is 27 years old and is the second-generation successor of MDS Pictures. He took over MDS Pictures from his father five years ago. He just left school, ambitious, intending to carry forward the MDS film industry that his father left to him.
but!
However, his heart is higher than the sky, and his life is thinner than paper.
He messed up several big projects one after another, causing heavy losses to MDS Pictures.
"Mr. Hashimoto, you let me think about it again. After all, the film library of MDS Pictures is the hard work of my father for many years." Brandon said solemnly.
"I understand you!"
Taro Hashimoto said: "But the bank will never understand you and your company. If you don't sell the library, would you sell the company directly? That's sorry for your father in heaven."
For a moment, Brandon was silent.
The pressure from the bank really made him breathless.
In these years, anywhere in the world, if you owe money to banks, then those **** banks are bound to chase you.
Of course, the premise is that your company is in a downturn.
Otherwise, in the face of large and well-developed companies, those banks are eager for you to borrow more money, and even beg you to borrow money.
a long time.
Brandon said: "Mr. Hashimoto, in addition to the film library, we also have film distribution channels. Our company is sold to your company as a whole, don't you know if it's okay?"
Sold as a whole?
Ha ha!
Wald Pictures now has no shortage of distribution channels, well, at least there is no shortage of distribution channels in the United States!
"Mr. Brandon, you have to know one thing. For your MDS Pictures, we are only interested in the copyrights of 65 movies in the MDS Pictures library. As for the others, please forgive me for nothing." Taro Hashimoto said bluntly .
"......"
Brandon was silent again.
Two days later.
Brandon, who received multiple bank calls again, finally compromised.
In desperation, he could only sell the film library of his own film company.
Taro Hashimoto paid US$2.8 million to take the ownership of 65 films in MDS Pictures.
In the following days, Taro Hashimoto led his team to constantly travel to and from Hollywood's second- and third-tier film companies, seeking to purchase the film rights in their library, and to enrich the film library of Wald Pictures.
what?
Why don't you go to the top six in Hollywood?
Ha ha!
The six major Hollywood companies are rich and powerful, and they don't lack that little money. Furthermore, behind them are large media groups with their own TV platforms, home entertainment departments, and even Disney and Universal, as well as entertainment cities.
They can make the most of the film library of massive movie copyrights.
Every year, those film libraries can bring them a steady profit of tens of millions of dollars. How can they be sold?
Therefore, if Hashimoto Taro wants to collect the copyrights of those movies, he can only seek second- and third-tier film companies.
Of course, those stores that provide DVD rental services are also one of the important goals.
Blockbuster Group is the largest retail chain of DVD and video tape rental services and sales services in the United States. At its peak, it had 9,000 stores and more than 60,000 employees in the United States, with a market value of more than 30 billion U.S. dollars;
Of course, the entire United States cannot be the only chain store that provides DVD and video tape rental and sales.
In the United States, there are also numerous DVD and video tape stores.
But nowadays, Blockbuster is the dominant company, and other companies are shivering and overwhelmed. Bankruptcies, bankruptcies, bankruptcies, and store cuts are happening every day.
However, you can't underestimate them.
The skinny camel is bigger than a horse, and they have a lot of film rights and ownership in their hands.
.......
By the end of January, Taro Hashimoto and his team had collected the copyright and ownership of as many as 1,400 movies.
"Boss, the current number of movies in our film library, even if we look at all Hollywood studios, is second only to Hollywood's six and MGM, ranking eighth." Hashimoto Taro Hui reported.
Zhuke nodded in satisfaction.
However, Zhu Ke is a bit pity.
"There are indeed a lot of copyrights for these 1,400 movies, but the quality is really a headache!" Zhu Ke laughed.
Hashimoto Taro: "Boss, the copyrights of those excellent movies are in the hands of big companies, um, and Blockbuster, we can't do much."
"Well, I know you tried your best."
Zhuke has nothing to say.
The quality is not good, but the quantity will come together
The copyright of an excellent film may be worth tens of millions of dollars;
The copyright of a low-quality movie is estimated to be hundreds of thousands of dollars. Of course, even lower, a few thousand dollars can be won.
The expensive one is dying;
No one wants cheap free picks;
"It's okay!"
Zhu Klang said: "It doesn't matter if the copyrights of those junk movies don't make money. At least it enriches our film library. Besides, we can double the profits from DVD manufacturers like Sony and Toshiba in the future."
Zhuke didn't feel a loss at all.
You know, the later, the more valuable the copyright of the film!
Especially after 2010, when the Internet online video and streaming media sites emerged, even the copyright of junk movies can also bring huge returns to the company.
Zhu Piao, classmate, will never do a loss-making business!
"By the way, how much is it spent now?" Zhu Ke asked.
"Boss, it has spent a total of 60 million U.S. dollars so far. It's not that I don't want to spend 100 million U.S. dollars. It is because many movies are too general and have no desirable value at all." Taro Hashimoto smiled bitterly.
"Hahaha~!"
Zhu Ke waved his hand: "It's okay. Just spend the money and spend the 100 million dollars. No matter how trash the movie rights are, there is a time to make money. Let go and do it boldly~"
"Yes, boss."
As Zhu Ke said, the copyright of these junk movies will also bring Zhu Ke extremely rich returns in the future.
It can be said to be a big profit.
.......
at the same time.
Paramount Pictures.
CEO Shirley Lansing looked at Jordan and asked: "You said, Golden Dawn Group collects film rights on a large scale, what is their purpose?"
Hearing this, Jordan shook his head.
"Boss, logically speaking, they collect copyrights from Hollywood's major, medium and small companies in order to enrich the film library. This is understandable for the recently established Wald Pictures."
"but!"
"The weird thing is that they are not afraid of meat and vegetables."
"Whether it is the copyright of excellent movies, UU Reading www.uukanshu.com or the copyright of those junk movies, they don't let it go, which makes me very puzzled."
"After all, the copyright of those junk movies is completely useless."
Jordan said solemnly: "That fellow Zhuke Wald is such a cunning person. It stands to reason that he should know the copyright of those junk movies. It is useless. But now this one, I really don't understand."
Shirley Lansing was also very puzzled at the moment.
"Um~~"
Shirley Lansing pondered: "So, you don't care about him. Didn't it mean that Wald Pictures has two new movies to be released? You will pay more attention to it in the near future."
"Okay, boss."
Although the cooperation between Paramount and Wald Pictures is now over, Paramount still has a passion for Wald Pictures and wants to buy it one day.
"" The second update is sent.
