Question 1549 (New)
As early as 1995, the independent production company Carolco (Carolco), the producer of "Terminator 2", declared bankruptcy due to the unfavorable box office and a broken capital chain. James found the president and director of Carolco at that time, hoping to buy back " Terminator series copyright.
The two bosses beat James hard, thinking that he would buy it anyway, but James turned around and left, and never came back after leaving.
These two bosses took the copyright and continued to vote for "Terminator 3". They thought they could make a lot of money, and the box office in the first two weeks also fully demonstrated this, but then a damn power outage happened, Let everything come to naught.
If it makes money, that's okay, but now it's obvious that the box office won't make it back. In the later period, DVD rental and TV station purchase of copyright broadcasting may be able to pay back in the long run, but it will take time, not one or two months, but several years. What's more, the current box office cannot be settled immediately. It can be said that if investors and copyright owners want to calculate short-term profits, they will lose a lot of money.
In this case, you can consider trying to buy back the copyright of the Terminator series. Guo Tailai just made some small money from the previous blackout incident, as long as it does not exceed 35 million US dollars, it is worth buying it back and letting James continue to play.
In the future, the copyright of the "Terminator" series will be resold several times, first for 30 million, then for more than 29 million, and once to 20 million. In the end, the copyright should be returned to James for free after the expiration of the copyright, but it must be more than a dozen Guo Tailai doesn't want to wait so long for things that will happen a few years later, and he will give this to James as a gift!
The United States was talking, while in London, Guo Tailai accompanied Chu Fei to Oxford Street. The commercial real estate that Guo Tailai got from Colonel Ka has been transferred to Chu Fei's name. As a gift, he intends to let her be his favorite fashion brand. Now it's time to go and have a look, which can be regarded as a field trip.
Chu Fei was very happy. In London, she once again enjoyed changing appearances with her beloved fat man, swaggering away in front of the paparazzi reporters without them recognizing it.
This feeling is so happy. When you want to be a star, you are a star with thousands of eyes. When you want to be an ordinary person, you can walk out hand in hand. Those paparazzi who eat with sharp eyes can't see it.
Oxford Street was originally a fashion street, and Chu Fei was still in this industry. Of course, she had a great time shopping with Guo Tailai with a small bag on her back. Forget it.
After wandering around until dusk, I came to the gate of my own property. Going in and taking a look, Chu Fei didn't know how to express her gratitude to Fatty anymore. The prime location and the huge area, not to mention opening a flagship store, even a small-scale shopping mall is enough.
Chu Fei visited the layout of her future flagship store with great interest. She didn't know how many thoughts had passed in her mind. The drowning eyes are almost as happy as heaven.
Guo Tailai is also happy, being with the person he likes, free from restraint, no need to worry about firewood, rice, oil, salt, soy sauce, vinegar and tea, doing what he wants to do, if he is not happy, he will be struck by lightning. What's more, Guo Tailai also received a call on the way.
"G, Marvel is starting to lose its grip." MJ called, and on the phone, MJ was equally elated: "They couldn't hold on anymore and started asking for help. Mr. Li has already started to persuade several directors. There will be good news soon. Three directors are willing to sell their shares."
"Can we open champagne?" Guo Tailai asked with a smile on the phone.
"It won't be too long!" MJ's tone was full of excitement, but immediately changed to regret: "Unfortunately, they sold my favorite Spider-Man, God knows how much I want to play Spider-Man ?”
This Guo Tailai couldn't help. When Marvel couldn't survive, he almost sold all his sons who could sell money. Even Artisan Entertainment bought Captain America and a lot of copyrights. If the filming hadn't started, it might be possible to buy it back, but it's definitely not possible now. The Spider-Man movie shouldn't make too much money. It would be strange if those guys were willing to return it. Even if you want to buy it back, I'm afraid it's impossible. Once the meat is in the wolf's mouth, can you snatch it back?
After the phone call, Lin Jiayi sent an acquisition team to the United States, but she didn't go by herself, she just stayed by the boss's side, afraid that the boss would come to space skydiving again and she would not know about it.
After only staying in London for one day, Chu Fei accompanied Guo Tailai to a direct flight to Switzerland. The two finally met, and they were like glue, and neither of them wanted to separate.
Mr. Baker has been waiting impatiently. Ever since he got the order to prepare the materials, he has been waiting for what kind of new watch the boss will come up with this time. Now, he finally saw this diving watch.
There is no need for too many other introductions, but it is enough that Mr. T made it himself, and it can withstand the water pressure of 4,000 meters without leaking. Hearing Guo Tailai's sales plan again, Mr. Baker finally sighed, the Taylor G brand finally has a watch made by the boss himself who does not need to go to the auction.
Mr. Baker is preparing for the launch of the diving watch. Naturally, Chu Fei has one more task, to be exact, two. The first one is to shoot an advertisement for the new watch model. She is the image spokesperson of Taylor G, and it is incumbent to shoot the advertisement. The second is to become the spokesperson of a private luxury submarine. Would Guo Tailai's products go to someone else? What's more, this is a supporting sale.
Only a high-end submarine will be sold with a diving watch, so Guo Tailai only gave Mr. Baker three watches first. Little Finn will definitely buy it, and Charles will definitely buy it, and the remaining piece is just for display. Don't rush to make it, it will be no problem to make it when the submarine is delivered in the future.
While arranging work in Switzerland, Guo Tailai received a call from Annie. After several days of negotiations, the copyright of the "Terminator" series was bought by Artisan Entertainment for 32 million US dollars.
"I've made an agreement with the other side, don't announce it yet." Guo Tailai told Annie with a smile: "Wait until James' birthday and take it out as a birthday present!"
Just after I hung up Annie's phone, MJ also called, and the voice was extremely excited: "G, we have made appointments with almost all Marvel directors these days, and more than 90% of the shareholders are willing to sell, and the price is also reasonable." It’s not expensive, just wait for the contract to be signed and paid, Marvel is ours!”
