498, Disney delivered to your door(1/3)
In a bedroom at Neverland Ranch in Beverly Hills!
The ambiguous atmosphere, the graceful and graceful beauties, and the hormonal excitement filling the air.
Chu Huan and Kelly had obviously just finished a big battle.
The two people who were fighting fiercely left the bedroom and came to the living room. Kelly was lying in Chu Huan's arms wearing a lace pajamas and preaching softly.
"How long will you stay in Los Angeles this time?"
Chu Huan said leisurely, "I'll go back after settling the Disney issues for the time being!"
Kelly nodded with some disappointment, but then said, "Disney is not that easy to deal with. Ronald Miller is a very staunch racist, plus your relationship with Apex Pictures has been exposed to the outside world."
, I don’t think Ronald Miller will work with Alder Commercial Bank again.”
In order to solve the problems faced by Alde Commercial Bank, Disney production is a very important part. If the troubles of Disney production can be solved, then the dilemma faced by Alde Commercial Bank can be solved in time, but
If there is no way to solve the trouble caused by Disney Production's termination of cooperation, it will bring great chain troubles to Alder Commercial Bank.
Although Chu Huan was able to solve these troubles in the end, the losses caused could no longer be compensated.
"If you can't solve the trouble, then solve the troublemaker!"
Chu Huan spoke calmly.
Kelly, who was nestled in Chu Huan's arms, was startled. She turned around 180 degrees and sat directly in Chu Huan's arms. She looked down at Chu Huan and asked in shock, "What do you want to do?"
?”
Chu Huan lay on the sofa, feeling the heat coming from his abdomen, and said with a smile, "When I came here, I had already found information about Disney and found a very interesting question!"
Kelly asked curiously, "What's the problem!"
"Ronald Miller's shares in Disney Productions are not as large as those of Edward Disney. Why did Edward lose to Ronald Miller in terms of Disney management rights?"
Chu Huan expressed his doubts.
The equity distribution of Disney is very interesting. Two brothers, Walt Disney and Luo Yin Disney, founded Disney. Walt Disney is responsible for the company's creativity, and Luo Yin Disney is responsible for the company's operations.
Because it was Walt Disney who single-handedly created a series of classic animated characters such as Mickey Mouse, Donald Duck, and Dumbo, outsiders call Walt Disney the soul of Disney.
But actually!
After Disney went public, Walt Disney only held 14% of the company's shares. After his death, he left 45% of his estate to his wife and children, while his sister, niece and nephew each received 10% of the estate.
The remaining 45 went into the Disney Charitable Trust.
However, there is a rider in his family trust agreement that will withhold distributions if the children do not demonstrate "the maturity and financial ability to manage and utilize these funds in a prudent and responsible manner."
But it was precisely because of this extra clause that his descendants later launched a long legal battle with the trust company.
But that is an afterthought and has nothing to do with the present. The current situation is that Ronald Miller is exercising these 14 shares in Disney at this time.
However, Edward Disney, who was fighting for power with him, obtained the shares of Disney 17 from his father.
Obviously more than Ronald Miller.
If things continue to develop like this, Edward Miller will continue to acquire shares of Disney during this period. Until 2003, Edward Miller will sell all his shares in Disney. From then on,
This ended the relationship between the Disney family and the Disney Group.
Kelly said, "This is actually easy to understand. After all, Ronald Miller is Walt Disney's son-in-law and the company heir designated by Edward Disney's father, Royce Disney. Therefore, the Disney board of directors still believes in Ronald Miller. In the end,
What's important
The investment return ratio of movies and animations is uncertain, but the return ratio of Disneyland is fixed. Therefore, on the board of directors, more directors chose to support Ronald Miller, and Edward Disney had no choice but to leave the company.
Management!"
Kelly, who is in Hollywood, naturally knows more about these things.
After hearing this, Chu Huan nodded, "So that's it!"
Kelly sat on Chu Huan, twisted her body, and said, "You haven't said what you just said?
What do you mean by not being able to solve the trouble, but being able to solve the people who caused the trouble?"
Chu Huan put his hands on Kelly's elastic hips and said softly, "I took a look at Disney's market value before I came here. It's only 12.4 billion U.S. dollars. If Apex Pictures can acquire Disney, wouldn't the problem be solved?"
?”
Kelly couldn't hide her excitement.
Although Disney's development is now at a bottleneck and its management is in chaos, it is undeniable that as one of the eight major studios in North America, Disney's existence and heritage are still beyond the reach of Apex Pictures. If Apex Pictures can acquire Disney
If so, then Apex Pictures will immediately become one of the most powerful film studios in North America and even the world.
By then, the problems faced by Apex Pictures in Hollywood will naturally cease to exist.
"It's just that 12.4 billion US dollars is not a small amount of money. Apex Pictures will definitely not be able to get it now. You have just acquired Alde Commercial Bank. If you take out so many loans at once, you will definitely be able to get it by then."
It caused quite a stir!”
Although Kelly really wanted to get Disney, she had to consider Chu Huan's issues. Although Kelly was in charge of some of Chu Huan's industries in North America, she only knew a little bit about Chu Huan's wealth. In her opinion,
Chu Huan, who had just completed the acquisition of shares in Ford Motor Company, could not afford the US$12.4 billion at this time.
Since Chu Huan couldn't get it, he could only lend it to Apex Pictures in the name of Alder Commercial Bank.
But now the financial industry across the United States is paying attention to the future development of Alder Commercial Bank, if it takes out so many loans at this time.
It is bound to cause a bad chain reaction.
Chu Huan smiled and said, "This money will not go to Alde Commercial Bank!"
Just the two new games released by Langyan Games last month brought Chu Huan US$2 billion in revenue. At that time, Chu Huan was still worrying about how to spend the money, but now Disney has come to his door.
Although the market value does not represent the acquisition price, if Apex Pictures really puts the acquisition of Disney on the agenda in the future, the funds spent will most likely be around US$1.5 billion, but this is not a big deal for Chu Huan.
Just give Cao Yunshang the funds to buy Spring Department Store!
After Disney experienced chaos in the late 1970s and early 1980s, after putting Mike Eisner, Frank Wells, and Jeffrey Katzenberg on the right track, they would immediately get back on track and lead the company.
Disney has quickly grown into one of the world's largest entertainment empires.
The most intuitive way to express this growth using data is that Disney's market value during this period was only US$12.4 billion, but by 1994, Disney's market value had reached US$28 billion!
Although because Marvel is already in its hands, Disney will not be able to acquire Marvel in the future and continue to double its market value, but in the final analysis, both Marvel and Disney are Chu Huan’s personal industries, and they will be completely
We can continue to cooperate.
Then the entertainment empire in North America in the hands of Chu Huan will become a complex of Disney, Warner and Universal, and the real market value will far exceed the market value of these three media groups in another time and space.
That would be an extremely terrifying number.
Of course, this does not mean that Chu Huan will acquire two other film studios, but that Chu Huan will get the products they rely on, such as Warner's DC, Universal's Fast and Furious and Transformers, etc.
.
"Why don't you go to Alde Commercial Bank? Where did you get so much money?" Kelly asked Chu Huan in confusion.
Chu Huan gently patted Kelly's buttocks and said with a smile, "You don't have to worry about this. What you should worry about now is how to get Disney in your hands."
Seeing that Chu Huan didn't want to talk, Kelly stopped asking about the matter and said, "Is it really possible to make money just by acquiring Disney at such a high price?"
Disney and Apex Pictures both belong to the production industry. It can be said that the businesses of the two companies are highly overlapping, except for Disneyland.
So Kelly is a little worried about this.
Chu Huan had a different idea, saying, "Disney has a lot of important IP in its hands, and the peripherals of these IPs have not been fully developed by Disney. If it can get Disney, the company's operational focus should be on the development of animation IP.
This money can be easily earned back.
Moreover, by acquiring Disney’s Apex Pictures, we will have Disney’s film library and their Disneyland, which can bring a steady stream of funds to Apex Pictures.”
Animation production has always been Chu Huan's weakness. Although Fantasy Comics has also established its own animation company, its production capabilities have never been able to compare with top animation companies.
Now as long as Disney is acquired, all problems will be solved!
Moreover, Disneyland is also a money-attracting monster, which can make up for Chu Huan's disadvantage in peripheral development.
In fact, now is not the best time to acquire Disney. If Chu Huan waits for another three years, the best time to acquire Disney will be in 1979.
At that time, due to the huge success of "Star Wars", Disney inevitably became a follower of the sci-fi movie trend. In 1979, they launched the movie "The Black Hole" with a cost of 20 million US dollars.
The box office gross was a measly less than $3.6 million.
In addition, audiences in the 1980s began to grow tired of the clichéd family movies released by Disney, which led Disney to reach its lowest point after losing the main consumer base of the movie market, teenagers.
However, at that time, Disney also aroused the covetousness of the capital giants on Wall Street. Although the price was lower, the acquisition was more difficult.
On the contrary, it is better to take advantage of the abundant cash in hand and get Disney in advance.
So after careful consideration, Chu Huan decided to acquire Disney!
"Now that you have made a decision, am I going to contact Ronald?" Kelly said excitedly.
As she said, since Chu Huan has made complete considerations and has prepared funds, the acquisition of Disney will be a battle for her to become famous in North America!
Chu Huan shook his head and said, "Don't contact Ronald yet, contact Edward Disney. At the same time, I have already called Jerry Kohlberg. He will fly to Los Angeles tomorrow to assist Apex Pictures in the specific matters of acquiring Disney!"
Kelly was stunned for a moment and said, "If you ask Jerry Kohlberg to come over, aren't you worried that he will know about your relationship with Apex Pictures?"
Chu Huan chuckled and said, "Everyone in the United States knows that you and I have a close relationship. Is there anything wrong with me contacting Jerry Kohlberg for you?"
