Instead of interrupting Corklian as rudely as before, Litt listened to the other man's words in full, and fell silent.
Corkrian continued to "bewitch" and said: "Just imagine, no matter how good you are in the position of an ordinary agent, at most you can do it to the same extent as when Ovitz was in CAA, didn't Ovitz tell you why he left CAA back then because he has reached the top of this industry, and he can't achieve more in this industry."
If you want to surpass him, you have to try something he hasn't tried before, like representing a film company and helping it come back to life. ” "I know it's a hundred times harder to represent a film company than an actor or a movie, but the benefits you get from it will be far greater than what you can get from an actor or a movie.
Ovitz helped Sony buy Columbia, and he got a commission of $8 million after the deal was completed, and he helped Panasonic buy CA, and he was paid 40 million after the deal was completed, and if you can help me sell MGM at a price that I am happy with, the commission I pay you is definitely much more than the amount that Sony and Panasonic paid to Ovitz. ” That's when Leet finally spoke.
"How much" "$100 million or more" Corklian consciously offered a very convincing price, but he didn't expect Lytt to shake his head directly after hearing it.
"Too little" Corkrian was stunned for a moment, even those investment banks on Wall Street can almost get so many commissions in the process of this kind of corporate merger and reorganization, and Litte is actually too little.
The reason given by Litt is also simple, and it is impossible for Corkrian to refute.
"Just now Mr.
Corkerian himself said, MGM's business situation must first get better, so as to ensure that you can sell MGM at a good price, and to achieve this goal, it is impossible to rely on only one or two movies, if the time limit is three years, at least I have to plan more than 10 blockbuster movies for MGM, it is possible to fundamentally reverse investors' confidence in MGM, and to do this, not to mention the current AG, is for a big brokerage company like CAA, It's also a huge project, so the commission you're offering is definitely not enough."
Corklian was relieved when he heard this, he was not afraid that Li Te's lion would open his mouth, but he was afraid that Li Tet would not dare to open his mouth.
"So how much do you want" "If you sell MGM now, how much will you get for Mr.
Corkerian?"
"At least $3 billion."
"I want a 30 percent premium on MGM's market value in the future."
Corklian thought about it, he promised to give Ricter $100 million as a commission after the matter was completed, if it is converted into the percentage of commission that Locker is proposing now, that is, the market value of MGM will increase by at least $300 million in the next three years, which is still a little bit away from Cockrian's plan to sell MGM at a price of $3.5 billion, but it is not impossible to accept, the key is to listen to Leet's tone, he is still because he is not satisfied with the $100 million commission, so he proposed to share, In other words, his expected MGM market value growth is well over $300 million, and Corklian has no reason to refuse.
"No problem, just do what you say" Corkrian's promise was too cheerful, which made Litt a little worried.
Helping MGM come back to life, this may be an impossible thing for others to do, but not for Little, not to mention anything else, as long as the Harry Potter novel becomes popular, winning the film adaptation rights of this novel can make MGM's market value soar, and then hand over some future blockbuster movies to MGM to invest, not to mention returning MGM to the peak state of the year in three years, at least the market value of this company can exceed $5 billion.
As a brokerage company, it is the same for anyone to work with now, and this agreement with Corkrian greatly increases the possibility of obtaining investment from MGM, which is one of the reasons why Leeter is willing to agree to Corkerian.
This is, all of this must be based on Corkrian's trust in him, but why should Corkerian believe him, because he planned for Universal I Am Mary Maniac at a cost of $20 million to win $21.3 billion at the box office, becoming the second best grossing comedy film in North America at the box office Litt didn't think it would be that simple.
Sure enough, Corkrian's next request confirmed this suspicion.
"I myself should say that I have shown the greatest sincerity for this cooperation, not only came here to interview Mr.
Leet in person, but I also agreed to all the conditions you proposed, so is it not Mr.
Lee's turn to show a little sincerity now My request is very simple, in order to prove that Mr.
Leet you really have the ability to help me achieve my goal, I need you to help MGM plan a new 007 movie first, first of all, this movie can't lose money, and secondly, the starring role of this movie can't use Brosnan."
The first condition made it difficult for him to accept it, but the second condition made it a little difficult for him to accept.
"That's right, I know that Brosnan is very suitable for playing Bond, and he may be the most suitable actor to play 007 after Sean Connery, but here's the problem, I said that this is a test of Mr.
Lee's ability, if the main actor continues to use Brosnan, whoever makes this movie can make money, and Mr.
Leete, where does your ability come from" At this point, Corkrian, Litt already understood.
It's not that Corkrian doesn't know that a new Bond actor is a huge adventure for the 007 series of movies that have regained some improvement, but if in this case, Leet can still deliver an answer that satisfies him, then he can rest assured that Leet can help MGM turn around the current business decline.
This old fox has counted everyone in it from the very beginning. t1706231537:
