Silicon Valley

"Then quickly contract it and make it into Jurassic Park as soon as possible, and our movie will be shot there!!!" Henry said. In fact, if it weren't for the distance, Henry would have gone to Australia and New Zealand to buy islands. Islands there can be bought and sold and privately owned legally!

Bobby Robin nodded and said, "Okay, I'll arrange it right away!"

"What about Hasbro?"

"The company is currently in good profit, and the company's board of directors does not accept acquisition invitations!"

"Don't accept the acquisition invitation? That is to say, there is no need to talk about it!" Henry frowned. Hasbro, founded in Rhode Island in 1923, went public in 1968 and officially changed its name to "Hasbro". This company, like Cisco, is also making crazy acquisitions. From its establishment to the present, it has acquired more than 100 companies! One of the most famous is that Hasbro has become the largest toy company in the world after the acquisition of Wonderful Baileys in 1984! ! !

At present, Hasbro owns many well-known brands such as Transformers, Special Forces, Star Wars and so on!

In the face of such a large company, if it does not accept the acquisition, Henry will have a headache!

Just set up a toy company by yourself. You have brands such as "Jurassic Park", "Harry Potter", "Lord of the Rings", etc., enough to make your own toy company a giant in the toy industry! After thinking about it carefully, Henry decided to give up the acquisition of Hasbro and instead set up a toy company by himself.

So, Henry said to Bobby Robin: "Since Hasbro will not accept the acquisition, then we will build a toy company ourselves, and the company will hang under Galaxy Entertainment Holdings, and wait for the movie "Jurassic Park" After the screening, the dinosaur toys will be released!!!”

"Yes!" Bobby Robin nodded.

"This time, I have one more thing to inform you. The movie "Remaining Island" will use the IMDB online ticketing system for the first time. It is not clear how many screens will be screened for the screening. However, I will try my best to Let "Desert Island" get 4,000 screens. If it is released. If the response is good, the number of screens will continue to increase!!!" Henry said, "This time. What a stupid decision on the number of screens in "Desert Island"! I still have full confidence in this movie!!!"

Upon hearing this. Bobby Robin's face glowed red, and the arrogant attitude of Warner Films, he had had enough, "This farmer turned over and sang", it would be cool to hit Warner in the face! ! !

"Chairman, "The Rest of the Desert Island" will definitely hit the box office!!!"

Henry looked at his excited expression. shook his head. Not at all calm.

For the movie "The Rest of the Desert Island", Henry must make the fire all over the United States. Only in this way can Nicholas Express be better promoted! To a certain extent, this is an image promotional film of the Nicholas Express Company, how can it be taken lightly?

...

IMDB once again launched an acquisition to AMC Cinemas, proposing to acquire AMC Cinemas with US$800 million! The AMC Cinema Line has been broken up after IMDB's digging. However, the IMDB website is full of sincerity. The US$800 million is definitely much higher than the current market value of AMC Cinemas! Henry doesn't want to waste any more time with AMC Cinemas. Sell ​​it, sell it, don't sell it! Great, build more theaters yourself! ! !

AMC Cinemas is an established company, and its self-built cinemas occupy the best positions. Among the 50 most profitable cinemas in the United States, AMC Cinemas holds nearly one-half of the cinemas! However, the market is sluggish, and it is still useless. It is not like the Chinese Theater, it has almost been sublimated to not just a theater, but a symbol of honor!

AMC Cinemas faces $800 million. My heart is even more shaken! At the board meeting, however, there were still a large number of shareholders who insisted not to sell!

IMDB has eyeliners installed in AMC Cinemas, and IMDB knows everything about AMC Cinemas!

"Can I get absolute control?" Henry asked with a frown.

Marcy Filimon thought for a moment and said: "It is possible to get more than 50% of the shares through acquisition and win, but if our bid is relatively high, we can definitely achieve absolute control!!!"

"Well, that's it, spend some money to get absolute control, and then restructure AMC to dilute the shares of other shareholders. In addition, change the company name to reduce the influence of the management of the original AMC Cinema Company on the company, Create a new corporate culture and brand power!!!" Henry ordered.

"clear!!!"

Henry sat on the sofa, drank a cup of coffee, and asked casually, "How many theater chains or independent theaters are currently willing to join the online ticketing system?"

"At present, ten theater chains are willing to join, while there are only 80 independent theaters, and there are almost 300 theaters in total!"

"How many screens are there in total?"

"More than three thousand yuan!"

"It's a bit less..." Henry frowned slightly, "After the acquisition of the AMC theater chain is completed, contact these theater chains or independent theaters, we will open the online ticketing system for the first time, and show "The Rest of the Desert Island", if you are willing to cooperate, just show This movie! At the same time, other theater companies should also see how powerful the online ticketing system is!!!”

"Yes!"

Subsequently, IMDB directly gathered people in AMC Cinemas who were willing to sell their shares. Among them, there were only two major shareholders who held more than 10% of the shares, and five others each held 3% to 8% of the shares. Henry personally met them at IMDB.

Henry didn't talk nonsense, and said straight to the point: "Hello, all shareholders of AMC colleges and companies! I'll say it bluntly, please come, just to buy the shares in your hands, if you sell it, you will pay a premium of 2%. If so, IMDB will abandon its acquisition of AMC Cinemas!!!”

Everyone looked at each other, whispered and discussed in a low voice.

"Give you five minutes to think about it!" Henry said, stood up and walked out of the conference room, but when he walked out of the door, he turned his head and said lightly: "By the way, if today's acquisition is unsuccessful, then IMDB will snatch the AMC Academy. Line's franchise theaters..."

Henry said these words, revealing a deep threat. The expressions of all the people on the spot changed!

"Think slowly!"

After Henry finished speaking, he walked out and closed the door by the way. At this moment, a heated discussion broke out in the conference room! ! !

"What do you think? Silas, what do you think?"

At this time, a middle-aged man with a pair of black-rimmed glasses who looked very wise and gentleman analyzed: "Let's sell it!!! Look at this situation, IMDB is determined to acquire AMC, and the acquisition will not succeed. We have to dig a foothold and force us to submit! If we don’t sell, our shares will inevitably shrink!”

"Yeah, Silas is right, if you don't sell it, the shares won't be as valuable as they used to be!"

Silas stroked his glasses and said, "I originally wanted to sell it, but I just wanted to sell it at a higher price. However, looking at it like this, it's unlikely! In fact, a 2% premium is already quite good... After that, the shares have shrunk strongly!!!”

"Well, that's right!"

"Then everyone sell it!"

"Okay, then sell it!"

"..."

Five minutes later, Henry walked into the conference room again.

"What's everyone thinking about!" Henry asked indifferently after he sat down.

"We have discussed and agreed to sell the shares!"

Hearing this, Henry smiled slightly, "Very good, then prepare to sign the contract and transfer the shares!"

An hour later, AMC shareholders left IMDB one after another, and IMDB completed absolute control of AMC at lightning speed, holding 54% of the shares! ! !

After a while, Marcy Fillimon walked over to Henry and whispered, "Chairman, Silas is back..."

"Well, prepare him a check for two million dollars. When the AMC shareholders discussed and discussed just now, he performed quite well!!!"

"understood!!!"

Marcy Philimon responded and walked out of Henry's office... (PS: all kinds of requests... subscription, monthly pass, reward, recommendation)
