Chapter 224: Tsk ...... This is Hollywood


Disney: $172.835 billion.WarnerMedia Group (Time Warner): $77.270 billion.21st Century Fox: $54.9 billion.Comcast (parent company of Global): Market capitalization of $178 billion.Sony (parent company of Sony Colombia): $40 billion market capitalization.Viacom (Paramount's parent company) has a market capitalization of $14.2 billion.

(That's right, less than one-tenth of Disney's) Lionsgate's market capitalization: $4 billion This is the market value of several major Hollywood companies that Abel learned from Alvertley after a phone call.There are many Hollywood studios with a certain amount of influence, but they exclude unlisted and private companies, as well as those with too low market capitalization.That's all that can get into Abel's eyes.This is the recent market capitalization of these large companies, and it is also the top few companies that have the most influence in Hollywood.Underneath that, there are also small film and television entertainment companies like Searchlight.And then there are some independent film production companies with a market value of millions and tens of millions of dollars.For example, STXEai, OpenRoadFilms, etc.In addition to these traditional film and television companies.In 2016, Hollywood and the media industry also squeezed into a big Mac.American Telephone & Telegraph Company (AT& amp; T) is a telecommunications company, founded in 1877, that had a long-term monopoly on the federal long-distance and local telephone markets.Its status in the federation is similar to that of mobile and telecommunications in China.But mobile and telecom can only honestly run their own industries, AT& amp; In addition to the telecommunications industry, T has also entered many other industries.Although it may seem a bit unprofessional, in 2016, AT& amp; Company T officially entered the media industry and acquired Time Warner, one of Hollywood's giants, at a premium of $85 billion.and changed the name of Time Warner to Warner Media Group.If you count it from the head office, it depends on AT& amp; T's New Era Warner, whose company's total value is properly higher than Disney's.Its latest market capitalization is $222.488 billion, making it an indisputable giant.But then again, the market value of these film and television companies is completely incomparable with those giants of the Internet.Even after this time, the U.S. stock market fell sharply.Those Internet giants can take out one at random, and their market value is the sum of the top ten film and television groups combined!

Ending the call with Alvertelli, Able put down his phone and fell into deep thought.If you want to really enter Hollywood, enter the media industry, and enter the film and television industry.If you exclude the play ticket, it doesn't count, if you want to manage it well.The quickest and best way to do it is to buy a film and television company.He learned about these studios from Alfertley.Exclude Disney and New Era Warner, which are currently unaffordable.Sony Pictures Pictures should not be sold either.Comcast, the parent company of Universal Pictures, is also a giant, Universal has made so much money in recent years, and Comcast has no reason to sell such a cash cow.Then only Paramount and Lionsgate, which have the lowest market capitalization, remain.Although the market value of the former is as high as 14.2 billion US dollars, Abel's current cash flow is about 20 billion, and there is no problem with all-cash acquisition.The latter is cheaper.With a market capitalization of just over $4 billion, he has been delisted, but if he wants to buy it, he can buy shares from his shareholders.But Lionsgate is long gone, and when they launched The Hunger Games, the company was on the verge of becoming one of the new Hollywood Seven.But then it wilted.Half-dead delisting, although there are still some good movies released, it is impossible to catch up with the remaining big six in Hollywood.Its specific ranking should be the first place under the Big Six.The other company, Viacom (Paramount), although its market value is very low, has not ranked so high in recent years.But the current market value of this company is a very suitable company for Abel.Because of this decline in U.S. stocks, Viacom's total market capitalization has fallen from around $17 billion to $18 billion to about $14.2 billion now.Because the price is cheap enough, Abel can afford it now.He had a strong interest in Viacom, and gave Alvertlido some information about Viacom's holdings.Alfertley quickly managed to get some of the percentages of Viacom's current shareholders through his own channels.The first shareholder is undoubtedly Viacom's largest shareholder, Sommer Leishidong, who personally holds 11.022% of the shares.Second place went to an institution, American Vanguard Group, the world's largest family of no-fee funds and the world's second-largest fund management company.The third shareholder, Vanguard Group, has only about 6% of the shares, the fourth has only about 4%, the fifth has only about 3%, the sixth has about 2%, and the seventh has about 1%.Judging from this shareholding ratio, its shares are super dispersed.But this kind of dispersion is actually the normal shareholding ratio of such a large company on the American side.The larger the market capitalization of a company, the larger and more dispersed the proportion of shareholders they have.Like Bluestar Future, there are only a few shareholders, except for start-up companies, which are almost very rare.Just like the old horse in Huaxia, he only owns about 8% of Ahri's shares, but this does not prevent him from controlling the company, nor does it prevent him from becoming one of the richest people in China for a time."14.2 billion!"

Abel became interested in Viacom.Because with his current cash flow, he can completely buy Viacom with cash without relying on anyone.He now has close to $20 billion in cash, and with this amount of money, if he goes all out, there is no problem at all to buy Viacom.Even if it is a 20% premium, it will only cost about $17 billion.He can now take out the funds.Because even with $17 billion, he still has close to $3 billion in cash flow, and Fidelity can still get about $3 billion in cash from them after the contract is signed with the two major funds.If you really want to buy it.Now it's time to expand!

Abel has always been a man of action.If you decide something, he will do it right away.He redialed Albertley's phone.A few seconds later."

Al.Gradually absorb Viacom shares in the market!

”On the other end of the line came the sound of Alvertelli's sudden breathing.

“BOSS。

Do you want to invest in the short term, or do you want to hold for the long term?

”"Does it make a difference?""

If you want to invest in the short term, I support it 100% with your eyes.But if you hold it for a long time, these entertainment companies are really not very suitable. ”"I'm not playing short-term this time, and I'm not going to play long-term.This time, I want to be the behind-the-scenes boss of one of the Big Six in Hollywood!

”Alvertelli on the other side of the line paused."

No problem!

Boss!

”"Excellent!

Start by diversifying your investments and absorbing the Viacom stocks scattered around the market. ”"Okay!

No problem!

Now that the U.S. stock market is so sluggish, I believe that if we do this, many people who own stocks will be happy!

”"So what are you waiting for?!"

Abel hung up the phone.Turn around.I saw a pair of sparkling eyes, and I was lying on the ground looking at myself excitedly.The mantis girl, who felt like she was falling apart, widened her eyes and looked at Abel incredulously.She whispered incredulously, "You want to buy Paramount?!"

”"What's wrong?

Can't you?

It's not that I don't have money, I can still easily take out a Viacom's money!

”"Whew......"

Mantis Sister took a deep breath.She didn't care about the fatigue on her body, and she didn't care about the sticky white pulp all over her body, and she showed a foxy smile.Crawled over.Rip off Abel's waist shorts.Then the heads begin to fall together.Feel the warmth and tolerance, as well as the meticulous service of the mantis sister.Abel took a deep breath.It seems that the acquisition of Viacom must be executed immediately.Originally, I was worried that there was some resistance in the role-play just now, and some unhappy mantis girls would be in trouble afterwards.Because just now the praying mantis girl was forced to be penetrated by Elizabeth and Karen Gillan.She was crying.First, although I am prepared in my heart, I look a little forced like this, and a normal woman will not like it.The second is that it is too big, some can't stand it, and it hurts.Now as soon as he hears that Abel wants to buy Viacom, he is likely to become the boss of Paramount.The attitude of the mantis girl is different.Tut......

This is Hollywood!

Abel sighed.
