Abel's film plan is staggeringly ambitious.Just think about it.If he could ask Spielberg to invest about $300 million and ask him to make the science fiction and philosophy movie that he is best at, how would he make this movie?
If you can ask Cameron to invest about $500 million, ask this money-burning king to shoot his best sci-fi technology blockbuster.So......
Can he make a movie more amazing than Avatar and Titanic!!
Then there's Peter Jackson, who is good at fantasy and filmed the Lord of the Rings in a beautiful and spectacular scene.Even East Asia, where there is a cultural barrier, can enjoy it.Give him a higher investment now; Give him $300 million to $400 million; How far can he go when he shoots the fantasy and magic genre that he is best at?
Then there is Spielberg's friend, another super director, George Lucas.The director, who single-handedly created the Star Wars series, asked him to make a move, which is still a big investment......
Ask him to shoot an interstellar sci-fi blockbuster, how far can he go?
Oliver Stone.The master of the documentary, invested in him, gave him money.Shoot the greatest documentary humanity has ever made, whatever it is, it's definitely doable!
Finally, Wen Ziren.His status as a Chinese-overseas Chinese makes Abel naturally have a good impression, and this director is also a director who really made a name for himself in Hollywood with his skills.What I'm best at has always been a variety of camera senses and a very powerful way to do big things with little money.Now Abel is giving him a lot of money, and he wants to see what kind of things this director who is good at integrating Western film thinking and integrating Eastern culture can shoot.There are a lot of other famous directors.Abel is willing to invest in them, give them big investment that other film companies are unwilling to make or can't afford, and let them produce their own scripts, as long as they pass the review of the new Paramount, they can get investment.He's willing to spend $10 or two on it.The reason for this.In addition to having money, the most important thing is that Abel, a guy with little management talent, is very rude to move the model of burning money on the Internet to Hollywood.What is the money-burning model of the Internet?
Don't make money in the early stage, or even post money upside down, try to expand the scale of users, and try to expand your influence.Relying on burning money and subsidies, after killing competitors, and then monopolizing this market by themselves.That's what Abel wants to learn now.He is ready to invest one or two billion dollars in the film market, and in just a few years, he will shoot many big movies.In these big movies, more than half of them must be profitable, and they will meet his requirements, and it doesn't matter if the rest is lost.Why?
Is it really because people are stupid and have a lot of money?!
Hehe......
His money-burning model has not been used by anyone in the entertainment industry so far.Even if there is, he has never burned as thrilling as him, and he is ready to take out one or two tens of billions of dollars to burn like this!
The Hollywood entertainment industry is a different market from other Internet markets.The Internet market is directly facing customers, and Hollywood and the entertainment industry also need to face actors and directors before facing customers.Under Abel's big investment, it will definitely be able to attract many famous directors and big-name stars.These directors and stars will shoot for Abel's new Paramount for a few years, so that other companies will have fewer directors and stars to choose from.Unless they are willing to hire newcomers or train stars themselves, they can only use higher prices to compete with Abel.And in terms of throwing money, Abel is never false!
There are some complicated things to say above.An analogy can be used.Think of the entire entertainment industry and Hollywood as a ranch.In this ranch, the big stars and actors are the goats and cows, and the directors, producers and screenwriters are the shepherds and milkmen.The milk and goat's milk produced are the movies.Suppose there are 1,000 cows and sheep in total, and 500 shepherds and milkmen.At this time, Abel spent a lot of money to buy out the ownership of the 1,000 dairy sheep and cows that produced the most milk in the next few years; And at great expense, the best of the 500 milkmen and shepherds were asked to take care of the hundreds of goats and cows for the next few years.So in the pasture, in the next few years, other people want to get milk and goat's milk (movie), and they want quantity or quality.They only have two options.One is to spend more money to rob Abel; One is that you can only choose between the remaining cows and sheep, as well as the shepherds and milkmen.If you choose the first one, it is more money than the guy who opened the hanging, or is it more than cash......
That's really just a search for death.If you choose the second one, the quality and quantity of milk from the factory, unless it is also open, it is impossible to compare with the best hundreds of dairy goats and cows, and hundreds of milkmen and shepherds!
Whatever it is.In the next competition with Abel, he will fall behind.Especially in this era of economic downturn, whether it is stocks, futures, or other economic data, it is not very good.In an era when most people can't come up with money.It is impossible for anyone to afford his mode of burning money on a large scale.Now, not many people know about his thoughts.If they knew, the media giants would have been dumbfounded, followed by hatred and helplessness.Let's take it.Either spend more, or you can only eat the leftover ones that are of slightly worse quality.Don't take it.The ending is still the same.That's why Abel is willing to spend a lot of money like this......
He wants to use a simple and crude Internet money-burning model, which is likely to be the most serious economic downturn in the next few years, to squeeze other Hollywood companies, and finally he officially entered the acquisition!
In this way.Build your own media empire!
After all, his real ability to plug in is only perverted in predicting his personal safety and making money.It's not about entertainment and rebirth.You can't go the route of using film and technology.This simple and crude model of burning money by capital giants is the most suitable for him.Moreover......
He is considering whether he should also adopt this kind of Internet money-burning model when he officially enters other industries that are already monopolized by giants.When the economy is on the upswing, this model is very restrictive, and the loss to oneself is also very large.But now the economy of the whole world is sluggish, and when everyone's life is starting to be a little tight, this pattern of burning money begins.Be able to crush those competitors earlier, and then take advantage of the opportunity to buy them.The three big plans of 2 billion yuan for the new Pai Lemeng are just the beginning for Abel!
Next, other studios will have to face the new Paramount's launch of an even more powerful money-burning attack!
It's all there.For the time being, it only exists in Abel's mind, and the new Paramount is just the beginning!
Say hello to all the well-known directors and have a glass of wine.Abel left the director's circle.The negotiation with these directors is only intentional for the time being.In terms of specific details, it is natural that the agents between the new Paramount and the director negotiate a contract that is detailed to the ownership of a teacup.And Abel didn't let them make their own movies they liked.He is willing to give a high salary, and is even willing to give a share of the movie.But the script, characters, behind-the-scenes personnel, etc., these directors only have the right to recommend, and the decision is only in the hands of the new Paramount.Abel was willing to give them money.But Abel won't just give the money and don't care about anything else in the future, just waiting for the movie to be completed.In that case, what else would Paramount do?
The purpose of acquiring the new Paramount is to use Paramount's influence and management capabilities to control this aspect.accompanied Abel out of the director's circle with David Adams and the people of United Oil of California.After getting the big plan of the entertainment industry.And then there's the oil industry.Everyone came directly to a corner of the reception site, and just stood still, before the waiter brought the drink, Anthony Smith couldn't wait to speak."
Sephorosa!"
He said."
In fact, the purchase of the current United Oil of California from Chevron Oil Company is not so expensive!
You're willing to spend $6 billion on the new Paramount, and now you only need to pay about three times that price to get a former seventh- or ninth-largest oil conglomerate in the United States!
”"It's definitely a good deal!"
Abel smiled.Said quietly: "$18 billion?"
I can get this money, whether it's cash or other ......"
"It's just ......"
"Is the current Union Oil Company of California, or Unocal Oil, really worth $18 billion?"
I remember that in 2005, the price of Huaxia Offshore Oil was 18 billion US dollars. ”"But times have changed.""
Is the current California Union Oil still worth the price?"
Anthony Smith was right: "Sir!
That's $18 billion in 2005!
You are an investment master, a genius in capital!
Obviously you understand that under 13 years of inflation, $18 billion in 13 years is far less than $18 billion in 13 years ago!
”"Now it's only $18 billion!
It's definitely worth it!
”"Hehe......"
Abel raised his eyebrows.The following sentence was speechless for Anthony Smith."
Is the California Union Oil 13 years from now the same California Union Oil from 13 years ago?
Is it still the seventh or ninth largest oil company in the United States?!
Free novels bring you joy and joy ---> storyskyline.net
”"Can you guarantee that the current Union Oil of California, in terms of volume and oil fields, can maintain the scale of 13 years ago?""
Uh......"
Anthony Smith really can't guarantee it.Or rather.How is it possible that the current California United Petroleum Company can still have the scale of the Unocal Oil Company of the year.After the merger by Chevron, various high-quality assets of California Union Petroleum have been divested and swallowed by Chevron.After 13 years, California Union Oil is only a shell, and they are best at oil exploration.Although it still has a complete oil industry system, it is already too backward in terms of equipment and personnel.Not to mention $18 billion.Even if you deduct the previous $18 billion price, it's actually not worth it.Seeing that Anthony Smith was speechless, Abel smiled, "If you really want me to take over Union Oil of California."
Then whether it is Chevron or you California Union Oil itself, you should give me a sincere price!
”"I'm a capitalist!""
Capitalists want to make money!"
He wanted to say something more, press down the price or something, but he didn't expect it.A burst of white smoke that had not appeared for a long time, and the smoke of magical fate appeared in front of him.
[Mission: On this planet, energy is the foundation of all modern industries!]
If you want to have a place on the planet, energy is indispensable!
Get your hands on Union Oil, no matter how much it costs, it will always give you higher and more amazing returns!
】[Reward: A new oil field!]
】New tasks.New rewards.Abel couldn't help but raise his eyebrows.The magical white smoke of the Smoke of Destiny slowly dissipated in the air, turning into an invisible molecular form, and even Able could not see it, and merged into his body.This scene.Even if it's himself, it's not clear.But it is precisely because of this reason that his physical fitness has become so perverted, and now he is a bit of a humanoid self-propelled aphrodisiac developing form.But that's not the point of describing it now.After receiving a new mission from Smoke of Fate, he was originally only interested in California Union Oil, but if the other party asked for too high a price, he would be ready to reject him.Now it's really interested.What can be used as a reward by the smoke of fate is definitely an outrageous reward.The oil field sent by the last mission was worth more than $100 billion.The reward for this mission, no matter how bad it is, should at least be about the same as the previous one, right?!
With that in mind.When Anthony Smith was torn between a dilemma, Abel suddenly said, "$18 billion?
The price is a bit high, but if you guys want to.Whether it's Chevron itself, or Union Oil itself, we can sit down and talk about it!
”Anthony Smith was stunned.Your attitude just now is not like this, you look too expensive, you look like you don't want it because it's too expensive."
Of course......
I'll go back and renegotiate and recalculate a reasonable price!
”He was ready to go to Rockefeller.The asking price is too ruthless, and this pit can't be shaken off."
Okay!"
Abel smiled."
I really want California Union Oil because this is the oil company of the California people, and it must be returned to the people of California!"
That's a bit strange.The people around United Oil of California, including David Adams, looked strange at him.In the afternoon.That's not what you say.You say you're a New Yorker, and Union Petroleum, the oil company of Californians, has little to do with you.How did it become now that it was necessary to bring the United Petroleum Company back to the people of California?
The pace of change is a bit quick.Sure enough, it is worthy of the face of a capitalist.Everyone sighed.But I don't know.This is simply because someone has received a new assignment.For the sake of mission rewards.What's the point of changing your face?!
