My Age of Investment

  Chapter 1061 Versailles Tournament (A Pear Flower Leader 210)

   "Anyone gone?"

  A bald white man in his thirties hurriedly walked into Parmut’s office.

"gone!"

Pamute replied in a calm tone, but he quickly changed a serious expression and asked solemnly: "What is the quality of "Iron Man"? Can the $140 million production system be recovered? Does the film cost? I want to listen to the truth! This is important to me and Marvel!"

  The bald man, Kevin Fitch, who is also the CEO of Marvel Studios, said with a tangled face: “Before the movie is officially released, all predictions are just predictions.”

  Pamut silently calculated how much box office he had to sell to earn the cost, and he was also calculating Marvel’s profit in the last two years.

   Although Xia Jingxing did not give a specific quotation, his attitude towards the acquisition has been very clear.

  Do you want to sell it?

  Pamut was very hesitant in his heart. He was worried that the box office failure of "Iron Man" would cause Envision Capital to significantly reduce the acquisition offer, or even give up the acquisition.

  When the time comes, where will he go to find a new picker?

  Marvel seems to hold a lot of copyrights, but in fact, the business is not profitable, otherwise they will not become sellers and mortgage copyrights.

  He put on a confident attitude in front of Xia Jingxing, just pretending.

  As a well-known miser in the industry, Parmut is very picky about himself. He will cut a piece of discarded A4 paper into eight sheets to make a note pad;

  Some people even saw him yell at employees: Why buy a new pencil? The one in your hand clearly still has two inches!

  This level of stupidity is comparable to that of Shaw Run, another movie tycoon on Hong Kong Island.

  How can this kind of Grand-Taiwan character turn a blind eye to the opportunity to make a fortune?

  But he was also worried that if "Iron Man" had a big box office explosion, wouldn't it mean that he would miss a large amount of profit.

  Pamut suddenly asked: "Do you think the box office of "Iron Man" can catch up with the "Spider-Man 3" released last year?"

  "It’s almost impossible. That was $890 million at the box office. The production cost is almost twice that of "Iron Man", and Spider-Man is more famous than Iron Man."

  Pamut continued: "If this box office can be reached, how much valuation can be added to Marvel?"

  Kevin Fitch was taken aback for a moment, and then replied: "It is impossible to estimate, that means our film plan is successful! Subsequent character adaptations can be put on the agenda."

   "Then what if the second "Invincible Hulk" fails again?"

  Kevin Fitch smiled and shook his head, “That shows that our adaptation model is not mature and still has flaws, and the company’s valuation will fall.”

   "After all, it's still a bet!"

  Pamut sighed faintly, and then his face regained a look, "Next, you and the people from Vision Capital will talk about it based on the valuation standard of "Iron Man" reaching the level of "Spider-Man 3" at the box office.

  If they agree...hey, let's talk first! "

  Kevin Fitch nodded and left the office.

  As soon as he left the office, the smile on Kevin Fitch's face disappeared completely.

  These guys, everyone is extremely greedy and selfish, why can’t you wait patiently for "Iron Man" to be released?

  Every property was mortgaged. After three years of preparations, just surrendered?

As the proponent of the Marvel universe plan, Kevin Fitch grew up reading the story of Spider-Man and was obsessed with superheroes. He is very much looking forward to the successful realization of his plan. All superheroes gather in one movie. Then... what a fun!

  Unfortunately, the fragmented copyright, the distressed financial situation of the company, the boss who only cares about short-term benefits and hates risks...

  All of this is holding him back!

  Maybe Marvel is about to change to a new boss, which adds a lot of variables to his Marvel universe plan.

   "Damn it!"

  Walking on the road outside, Kevin Fitch kicked a trash can in front of him.

  The half-person-tall iron trash can did not move, but Kevin Fitch was holding his feet, and the golden rooster danced on the spot independently for a long time, wailing incessantly.

  At this time, he remembered that he was just a mortal body, let alone a god, even a trash can!

  But you can mess with this deal!

  Kevin Fitch looked fiercely at the trash can in front of him. At this moment, Vision Capital and the trash can were equated, and they were both enemies that hindered him.

  …………

  …………

In the conference room of Building 85 on Wall Street, Kevin Fitch put his hands in his trouser pockets and said proudly to Xia Jingxing, who was sitting across from him: “Next, Marvel will produce more than 20 superhero movies. It is expected to invest at least 40- 5 billion dollars.

  The timeline of this plan is as long as ten years. If factors such as rising prices and rising actors' salaries are taken into account, the US$5 billion investment may not be able to hold back. "

  After finishing speaking, Kevin Fitch was full of malice and started observing Xia Jingxing’s face, and I couldn’t scare you to death!

pity! He didn't have the livid face he imagined, but he still smiled brightly.

   "This is it? Five billion investment in ten years?"

  Xia Jingxing’s understatement gave Kevin Fitch a feeling of punching the cotton, which made him unable to use his strength.

  As soon as he wanted to speak, he heard Xia Jingxing make another cut to his heart: "Is 5 billion enough?"

  Kevin Fitch said lightly: “This is just an estimate, the actual cost may more than double.”

  Abel smiled and said: "Man, you may still have doubts about the strength of our Vision Capital. Do you need me to introduce our company to you?"

  This is a bit harsh. Kevin Fitch felt uncomfortable when he heard it, and said, "Okay! See and see the true strength of Wall Street crocodiles."

  "Two of the world's top ten Internet companies, we are the largest institutional shareholders!"

  "The world's largest smartphone company by shipments, we are also the largest institutional shareholder!"

  "The world's largest electric vehicle company, we are also the largest institutional shareholder!"

  ……

  Abel instantly incarnates in Versailles, presenting facts in an indifferent tone.

   is really true, there is no exaggeration.

  Kevin Fitch was dumbfounded on the spot, he must be called "the world's largest XX, the largest institutional shareholder", and read more than a dozen in one breath.

  Is this a fund? Is it a consortium?

  But he quickly reacted, the other party is not honest!

Kevin Fitch smiled and joked: "As far as I know, Tesla has only sold more than 2,000 cars, and the number of Fuxing mobile phones shipped is only a few million. The reason why the world is leading is that it accounts for the emerging industry. Right?"

  Being exposed to the act of pretending to be forced, Abel replied with a flushed face and a heartbeat: "So this shows the extraordinary investment vision of Envision Capital! If you wait for the emerging industries to grow up and then deploy, I don't know how much more dollars will be spent.

  In fact, you can see from this that our Vision Capital really likes to do some disruptive businesses.

  The reason why Marvel is in our eyes is also because you are doing a cool thing.

  The 20 movies you mentioned are great when they are built into one series. No one has done it before, right? "

  Kevin Fitch shook his head, "No one dared to do this before, because it requires the story and the characters to maintain a strong vitality, and I am not sure whether my plan will succeed."

   Abel smiled and said, "I think we can try it. We have the funds, you have creative ideas, and we all work together to do a big deal."

  The other party is so affectionate and sincere, Kevin Fitch almost blurted out "Okay", but he suddenly remembered his mission, to destroy the deal!

   So he sternly said: "But before that, you need to convince Marvel's board of directors."

   Abel smiled and said, "Of course, we are offering you a $1 billion acquisition offer."

  Kevin Fitch immediately laughed and said: "Man, are you kidding? A Spider-Man IP is more than $1 billion."

   Abel said with emotion: "Hey, it's a pity that Spider-Man is no longer in your hands. The commercial value of other heroes combined with it is not as good as it."

  Kevin Fitch shook his head and said: "Our offer is 10 billion U.S. dollars, which is a full 10 times difference from yours. This is too far apart. In my opinion, there is no need to talk about it anymore."

   Abel frowned slightly, and raised the table when he came up. What kind of negotiation technique is this? Want to catch me by surprise?

  Abel adjusted his mentality and dealt with it calmly, while slowly increasing the price.

  Kevin Fitch also pretended to start lowering prices. Even if he wanted to disturb the deal anymore, he couldn’t make it too obvious, especially since there are several Marvel executives who are here today, everyone is watching.

  The two talked, the price fell to 3.5 billion U.S. dollars, and Kevin Fitch said that he didn’t want to go down any more.

  And Abel insisted on a bid of 3 billion U.S. dollars, and was reluctant to add any more points.

  Kevin Fitch panicked, because the other party’s bid was already very close to the psychological reserve offered by Pamute.

   "$3.2 billion now!"

  Looking aside for a long time, Xia Jingxing suddenly broke the deadlock between the two with a loud voice.

  Hearing this, all Marvel executives were refreshed, and then all turned their attention to Kevin Fitch.

  Kevin Fitch sighed in his heart, the other party’s bid was too strong, and he couldn’t even destroy the deal if he wanted to.

  Sorry, Kevin Fitch ran out and called Pamut to report.

  After a while, he turned back, with a joyful smile on his face, "We need to discuss again."

   Abel was slightly disliked in his heart, he was too greedy, but now it is Marvel taking the initiative, he had to say indifferently: "We can wait three days, it's out of date!"
