    After hearing Xiao Qi's plan, their eyes lit up.

    ?????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????? off down compared to the real copyright ownership, of course a lot!

    "But will they agree?" Sam was still a little unsure.

    "Let's talk. How will we know if we don't talk?" Xiao Qi said with a smile, "What's more, after selling the copyright, we don't have a film company in hand. Don't we have to find them to produce? They can make a lot of money in production.  This also means that Paramount has not left these hero series!¡±

    David was obviously moved. He was silent for a moment and nodded seriously: "Then, let's talk about it again!"

    "It's true that he is a rich second generation, but he is a smart rich second generation. He will only spend money on the career he likes at any cost, and will not spend a lot of money on pleasure at all.

    He was just too excited before, thinking that if Paramount could provide these benefits, that would be the best result. He could not only fulfill his childhood wish, but also become the most famous person in Hollywood and make money at the same time. It was really a move.  Three gains!

    But he never thought about the principle of reciprocity in negotiations.

    I always feel that Paramount is one of the seven major film companies in Hollywood, a giant, and I am just an investor. They are lucky to make so many concessions.

    But the fact is that in the context of this financial crisis, the giant Paramount is already crumbling, but he, as an investor, has a lot of money and can be Paramount's life-saving straw.

    Sam seemed to be simpler. He knew that David had experience in Hollywood. He originally just followed him to learn, but since he learned that Xiao Qi was also investing in David's studio, he shamelessly wanted to follow him to Chengdu to meet Xiao Qi.  Discussing investment matters, he also bought a stake in David Studio.

    ¡°There¡¯s one more thing.¡± David took a gulp of tea.  Said: "Sam wants to join our studio. And if we really want to reach an agreement with Paramount, we don't have enough money. It's time to renegotiate the shares!"

    "What do you think?" Xiao Qi asked without answering.

    "My father will give me at most another 200 million US dollars. It is impossible to give me the rest." David said honestly.

    "I have less money. My father only gave me 100 million U.S. dollars. I mainly focus on learning from him." Sam said sarcastically. 100 million U.S. dollars is a lot to others, but in front of Xiao Qi and David  , this money is a bit too little.

    "Calculate, I originally invested 300 million US dollars, plus 200 million US dollars, it will be 500 million US dollars, Sam 100 million In addition to our operational needs. You have to invest at least another 800 million US dollars. Are you willing to increase it?" David asked  road.

    "Add more!" Xiao Qi nodded, "I will provide a total of 1 billion US dollars, but the owner of the shares will change and all will be given to little Taylor."

    "Wow"

    Sam raised his thumbs and said, "Xiao Qi, you are so generous!"

    "Nonsense, he has made Miss Swift pregnant, and he still won't marry her. Of course he has to give more!" David said with a smile.

    "Miss Swift is only 18 years old, right? You are only 21 years old, and you want a child so soon You Chinese people have such a strange mentality." Sam also smiled and said: "I am not planning to get married before I am thirty.  If you want to have children, you must be after 35.¡±

    David agreed very much with Sam's words, but he did not forget the business, "The total capital of David's studio is 1.6 billion US dollars. According to the proportion of investment, Since there are more shareholders, I am not the first shareholder.  I think the name of the studio can also be changed.¡±

    "I suggest calling it Friendship Studio, how about it?" Sam suggested, "We are all friends. Starting a business together is very exciting, and it also symbolizes that we must always maintain our friendship!"

    "I think it's good." Xiao Qi has no objection to these, and little Taylor doesn't like to fight for such a false reputation.

    "Then let's settle it!"

    David doesn¡¯t have much objection. In his heart, doing things and becoming a movie tycoon are the most important things.

    ¡°However, David has not considered the acquisition of Paramount that Xiao Qi mentioned, because such a huge film company involves too many aspects, and he does not want to have to deal with it.

    ? ? Participating in investment, filming, screening, etc. for movies he likes is what he likes to do.

    He believed that Xiao Qi would not buy Paramount. Even though Paramount is so big and prestigious, it is really not easy to make movies. If you don¡¯t do it well, you will lose money, and you don¡¯t know which movie will lose money. This kind of  Naturally, a smart person like Xiao Qi would not want to experience the tormenting days.

    David was really tempted by Xiao Qi¡¯s proposal.

    He followed Xiao Qi¡¯s idea and realized that it was almost 25% of Paramount¡¯s price.Wow, so much money in exchange for so little stuff, it¡¯s really a bit of a loss.

    He has already calculated how profitable the five series of movies "Transformers", "Mission: Impossible", "Iron Man", "Captain America" ??and "Avengers" are, and they are currently Paramount's most profitable.  Something to take out.

    Although taking the opportunity to ask for the copyrights of these movies is a bit of a scam, the problem is that if they don't take action, Paramount will go bankrupt like MGM, and then these copyrights will be cheaper for others.

    Between the company being sold by Redstone and continuing to maintain profits, David believes that Paramount will make the right choice.

    Besides, David knows more than Xiao Qi.

    The copyrights of the above-mentioned five super movies are very troublesome.

    For example, "Iron Man" was sold to Disney by Marvel Animation a long time ago, and Paramount only obtained the production and distribution rights for 1 or 2 movies. From the third movie onwards, it will return to Disney.

    As for the "Mission: Impossible" series, half of the copyright is in the hands of Tom Cruise, and Paramount only has half. When the time comes to shoot, we must carefully discuss cooperation.

    Considering the loss of profits from these two series, David wondered if he could win the film rights to "Tomb Raider" to make up for his losses.

    "I also remembered one thing, that is, David and I must start making money from now on." While David was thinking, Sam said sternly: "It's one thing to buy the copyright, but you can't invest in filming.  It doesn¡¯t cost money, right? According to the production cost of these blockbusters, which is 100 million to 200 million, we need to prepare at least about 500 million before we can continue to make profits.¡±

    "You're right!" David came to his senses and sighed: "We have to work very hard, Xiao Qi is better! He earned 93 billion US dollars just by selling some shares. It's so jealous that people want to kidnap him.  !¡±

    "Don't be so pitiful. How about you tell your father and return the shares to me if you don't want to?" Xiao Qi spread his hands and said.

    "Dream on you!" David and Sam said in unison.

    "Hahaha¡­¡­"

    The three of them looked at each other and suddenly laughed.

    ¡­¡­

    Sam and David are really not people who like to have fun. After talking about business, they just spent a day in Chengdu to recuperate, then hurriedly got on the plane and flew back to the United States again.

    Xiao Qi is rarely willing to do business with the rich second generation, but Sam and David are good people. Sam was a bit of a playboy before, but after a period of polishing by Branson, in just a few months,  He became much calmer, and Xiao Qi had to sigh that Branson really had a good way of teaching children.

    Xiao Qi had originally planned to buy Disney shares for little Taylor, but Gang Leader Qiao had never made a move, leaving Xiao Qi helpless. It just so happened that several movies at Friendship Studio could make money and gain a great reputation.  It will be very helpful to consolidate little Taylor's status in the entertainment industry, and at least make her music path smoother.

    Taylor is really a very innocent little girl. She is not interested in all the competition for fame and wealth. Xiao Qi is the most important person in her life. Other than that, music is all she cares about.

    ¡°But the music industry is not much simpler than the film industry. If there is no powerful force to protect her, little Taylor will be squeezed out and framed sooner or later, and she will fall into the abyss.

    If there is such a huge strength behind her and Sam and David to help little Taylor, then even if Xiao Qi cannot be in the United States all the time, she will not be afraid of others.

    Of course, although Friendship Studio will be famous for more than ten years, it is just a rootless duckweed after all, so Xiao Qicai plans to buy about 5% of Disney shares for her. This is the real thing that can stand forever.  capital.

    However, after David¡¯s lobbying, Xiao Qi suddenly felt that there seemed to be another industry that was more suitable for little Taylor, suitable for little Taylor and his descendants to own.

    That is the famous Marvel Comics!

    ???Basically all comic heroes in the United States come from Marvel Comics and DC Comics.

    DC comics include famous characters such as Superman, Batman, Wonder Woman, and The Flash, as well as superhero teams such as the Justice League and Teen Titans.

    Marvel comics also have Spider-Man, Iron Man, Captain America, Wolverine, etc., as well as superhero teams such as the Avengers, the Fantastic Four, and the X-Men.

    The two are evenly matched, each occupying half of the country.

    But DC Comics was acquired by Time Warner as early as 1969. It has been in control of it for almost 40 years, and it is impossible for Time Warner to let it go.

      Marvel Comics is different. They have always insisted on running their own operations. However, their business has spread too widely and developed too rapidly in recent years, so life has not been very easy recently.

    A series of superheroes were brought to the screen after IMAX and 3D technology were matured and promoted, that is, around 2009 and 2010. Disney was also lucky and purchased Marvel at the end of 2009.

    Prior to this, Marvel comics had not yet demonstrated its huge ability to attract money.

    It¡¯s just a waste of money. Xiao Qi has money anyway.

    As long as the strategy is right, it is definitely not difficult for Marvel comics to change their surname to Swift!  (To be continued)
