United States.
After receiving the order, Li Ye brought his team to California, United States.
Met Kevin, the boss of Marvel.
After expressing his intention, Kevin said apologetically: "Sorry, sir, I have already negotiated with Disney to sell the company to Disney."
Li Ye raised his eyebrows slightly and asked: "Have you signed the contract?"
"No, we have just agreed on the price."
"Excuse me, how much did Disney bid to buy Marvel?"
"This..."
Kevin was a little embarrassed, after all, the contract had not been signed yet.
"Mr. Kevin, don't be embarrassed, it will be announced sooner or later anyway." Li Ye smiled.
Hearing this, Kevin nodded: "Li, you are right, to be honest, Disney bid 4.3 billion US dollars to buy the entire Marvel company."
Kevin was not stupid, and deliberately said the price was a little higher.
In fact, the price he negotiated with Disney was only 4.24 billion US dollars.
However, for the wealthy Oasis Capital, an extra 100 million or 200 million US dollars is nothing. What matters is whether Xiao Yunhai's order can be completed.
After turning his head quickly, Li Ye's expression changed and he acted angry: "Mr. Kevin, Disney is insulting your company."
"Insult?" Kevin was stunned.
I don't understand, how did Disney insult Marvel?
"Li, what are you talking about?"
Li Ye said seriously: "Mr. Kevin, think about it, the box office of just one Iron Man movie reached more than 500 million US dollars. How can Marvel, which has so many superhero characters, be worth only 4.3 billion US dollars?"
"Uh..." Kevin was stunned, then his eyes moved slightly, and he tried to ask: "Li, how much do you think Marvel should be worth?"
"4.5 billion!"
"At least 4.5 billion US dollars."
Looking at the serious Li Ye, Kevin almost laughed.
Disappointment appeared in his eyes.
He thought it would be 500 million or 600 million US dollars, but it turned out to be more than 200 million?
Well, more than 200 million US dollars is not a small amount.
Li Ye put away his smile and looked at Kevin opposite him seriously.
"Mr. Kevin, as I just said, our company is willing to bid 4.5 billion US dollars to buy your company. I believe that we are the only ones willing to spend so much money to buy your company. You should think about it carefully. Instead of selling it to Disney and becoming one of Disney's many character IPs, it is better to sell it to us. At least we will work hard to build the Marvel Universe, so that all the heroes in the Marvel Universe can shine like Iron Man."
"Are you really going to buy it and make it into a movie?" Kevin looked at Li Ye closely.
"Yes, sir!" Li Ye smiled and said, "Not only will it be made into a movie, but also into a TV series. Otherwise, we would not spend so much money to buy it. You know, 4.5 billion US dollars is not a small number."
Yes.
They spent 4.5 billion dollars to buy it.
It must be adapted into a movie or TV series.
Otherwise, why would they want to make it into a movie or TV series?
Thinking of this, Kevin made a decision.
He stretched out his hand and said with a smile: "Lee, you are right. Disney wants to buy Marvel for 4.24 billion dollars. It is simply an insult to the great Marvel company. You know what you are talking about. I am willing to sell the company to you."
"4.24 billion dollars? Mr. Kevin, didn't you say 4.3 billion before?"
Kevin's heart jumped, and he cursed himself for being too proud and saying the real price.
"Ah? Is there? You must have heard it wrong. Besides, this is already in the past tense and it is not important. Li, don't you think so?"
Kevin said with a smile.
Li Ye shrugged, knowing that he was tricked by Kevin, but it was only 100 million more. As long as he could take over Marvel, he would have completed the task assigned by Xiao Yunhai.
"Kevin, you are right. These are not important. I am glad that you can choose a reliable buyer. I wish us a happy cooperation."
"Chelsea, Li, happy cooperation!"
The two old foxes smiled at each other.
One was happy to sell more than 200 million US dollars.
The other was happy to complete the task assigned by Xiao Yunhai.
In order to avoid more trouble, the two parties signed the contract on the same day.
In addition, the penalty for breach of contract was increased to 10 billion US dollars, in order to prevent Kevin from changing his mind.
After the contract was signed, Li Ye called Xiao Yunhai and reported the matter to him immediately.
"Your Highness, the Marvel deal has been settled. The old man wants $4.5 billion. I have agreed and signed the contract."
When Xiao Yunhai heard the asking price of $4.5 billion, he did not think it was too much. After all, Disney has already offered $4.24 billion. If he wants to cut in, the price must be higher.
Also, those guys in Europe and the United States, under the same conditions, basically choose to sell to white people, and rarely sell to yellow countries such as Dragon Country and Island Country at the same price.
Now that Marvel has been acquired for 4.5 billion, it is not a loss.
After all, Marvel is also a large series of IPs. Not only can it make money by making movies, but it can also create theme parks, animations, peripherals, etc. There are too many places to make money.
"The adaptation rights of Jurassic Park must be accelerated." Xiao Yunhai reminded.
Compared to Marvel, he believes that the theme of Jurassic Park is more suitable for creating theme parks.
"Okay, Your Highness!"
A man is in love, and a concubine is interested. They are eager to complete the transaction. In less than three days, the two parties officially completed the transaction.
And the news was announced to the public as soon as possible.
"...Recently, it was reported that Marvel, a well-known comic and film company, recently reached an agreement with an investment institution to acquire Marvel for a total price of US$4.5 billion. It is reported that this company, called 'Oasis Investment', is the New Han Kingdom.The investment company founded by the crown prince has invested in Facebook, YouTube and other Internet companies..."
The news quickly spread in the United States and even the global Internet.
Compared to the US media's focus on Marvel's copyright issues, people in Longguo lamented that the Xinhan royal family was too rich.
Just now, they spent nearly 3 billion US dollars to give money to the people.
Then they spent another 4.5 billion US dollars to buy a company, which was simply too arrogant.
On the Internet in Xinhan, the royal family wasted money. A comic movie company The company is not worth so much money at all.
No matter how the royal family spends their own money, it is the royal family's freedom.
However, this matter attracted the attention of a company, that is Disney.
You know, acquiring many Marvel superheroes and expanding the IP camp is Disney's strategy.
Seeing that it was a done deal, someone jumped out to intercept it, which caused the Disney acquisition department and even the Disney executives to be furious.
(Ps: Ask for flowers, monthly tickets, and evaluation tickets!!)
