The negotiations between Wald Pictures and Paramount collapsed!

After all, facing their "good intention" of investing in, Zhu Ke, who was a small peasant, couldn't accept it.

Zhuke loves money very much, that's right.

However, Zhuke is the kind of person who doesn't like trouble. Once Paramount successfully invests in the stock, it will inevitably add a lot of trouble in future work and life, such as participating in equity struggles, internal personnel struggles, etc., which will involve a lot of energy.

Of course Zhuke was reluctant.

"I am enjoying life when I come here, not to be intrigue."

Although the negotiations on the investment with Paramount collapsed, other cooperations can be carried out.

Three days later.

CEO Victor signed a series of copyright contracts for "Juno" with Paramount on behalf of Wald Pictures.

The main ones are:

First: Paramount invested $30 million to purchase the overseas copyright of "Juno" from Wald Pictures, including DVDs, videotape copyrights, and related toys, clothing, keychains and other peripheral copyrights;

Second: Paramount invested $2 million to acquire the right to produce the sequel to the movie "Juno";

Secondly, there are some other terms, but nothing.

In the end, the amount involved in the contract was as high as US$32 million.

At first, Zucker did not intend to sell the full overseas copyright of "Juno", but instead planned to sell only the overseas distribution rights of the movie. However, when he thought of the various release shady scenes in Hollywood, he could only do so.

Zhuke couldn't help but be careful.

The bottom line of Hollywood companies is really too low!

Even if they sign the issuance contract and can obtain overseas box office share, they can legally infringe on the interests that should belong to Zhuke as long as they make moves.

Of course, there is good news.

After the contract was signed, "Juno" produced by Wald Pictures faced pressure from media and theaters, and was able to resolve the situation with Paramount's actions.

"Since Paramount has purchased the overseas copyright of "Juno", they certainly cannot watch "Juno" hit hard in North American box office. After all, North American box office is the weather vane of overseas box office, which involves their interests."

Victor said.

Zhu Ke deeply agreed with this statement.

In fact, the same is true!

After the contract was signed, less than 5 hours later, major theater chains in North America readjustened the schedule of "Juno" and added more or less the screens to the release.

"Tsk tsk tsk tsk ~!"

Zhu Ke sighed: "Big companies are big companies. Not long after it took action, the number of screens of our movies has recovered to more than 2,400 yuan."

While feeling that Paramount was so powerful, Zhuke felt more powerless.

"Damn it! Without a perfect distribution network and without the existence of media power, I will encounter such cowardly incidents in the future."

At this moment, Zhuke thought a lot in his mind.

Isn’t the reason why the six major Hollywoods are awesome? They are like emperors, looking down at the rise and fall of the clouds. Isn’t it because there are complete global distribution channels, as well as media powers throughout the United States and even the world?

"I want a distribution channel!"

"There are also a TV station, media and newspaper!"

"If I have these, I will see who will dare to sneer with me!"

.........

9 pm.

Zucker's villa.

Today, two guests were welcomed.

Former ace negotiation expert Kang Di and lawyer Zhang Wei.

"Two, I'm sorry for invited you here so late, so I won't go around the corner." Zhu Ke pretended to be sorry.

Puff~!

Before Zhuke could finish his words, Condy, who was drinking water, couldn't help but squirt out.

"Kandy, you're really disgusting."

Zhu Ke was disgusted.

Kangdi waved his hand quickly and cursed, "Man, do you say I'm disgusting? I think it's you. We haven't met for a few months. When did you learn to speak like a 'gent' tone? It's not the 'vulgar' young man I know at all."

"Okay, I just thought I didn't say it."

At this moment, Zhu Ke was also speechless.

Why are I a vulgar young man? Can’t I grow up? Can’t I feel like I’m just looking at him with admiration for three days?

The lawyer Zhang Wei, who was standing beside him, smiled and said nothing.

Next, Zhu Ke will discuss with them the idea of ​​acquiring TV stations, media and newspapers, as well as the difficulties that had been in the past.

"Zuke, are you going to acquire a TV station?"

Kangdi couldn't help but hilariously: "Man, you don't have a fever, right? Do you know how much does it cost to acquire a TV station or form a media network? Do you have this money?!"

Three consecutive questions are worthy of death!

Zhuke did not answer Kangdi's question positively, but pointed to the barrister Zhang Wei on the side.

Zhang Wei knew it and immediately said solemnly: "Mr. Condy, please allow me to introduce the gentleman beside me. Juke Wald, the owner of the chain store around SpongeBob SquarePants House, the owner of the third-tier Hollywood Wald Pictures, the owner of a building worth $9 million in Silicon Valley, the full shareholder of Standard Bank of California, the owner of the copyright of "The Got Talent", and the largest individual shareholder of icq..."

After the words ended, Kangdi was shocked!

"I'll go~!"

"Old guy, haven't we met for only a few months? Why do you have so much money now?!"

"I actually hold 2% of Yahoo shares."

"In addition, are you the largest individual shareholder of the icq that has been popular recently?"

"Oh my god!"

"You have over 100 million yuan in assets?"

.........

At this moment, let alone Kangdi, if anyone else would be shocked.

Who would have thought that a person who often drank and chatted with him a few months ago would become a billionaire in the blink of an eye?

"Kandy, you're wrong. My assets are not over 100 million, but over 200 million US dollars."

When Zucker heard Kangdi's shocked words, he was a little proud.

Well, although Zhuke's current achievements may not be as good as many time travelers, as an ordinary person, it is already quite proud to be able to work hard to achieve such a billion-dollar fortune in just over a year.

"Old guy, do you still think I don't have the money to acquire a TV station and form a media channel?" Zhuke looked at Kangdi indifferently.

After the words came to an end, what else could Kandi say?

"Damn capitalist~!"

Well, Kangdi can only curse for a few words.

.........

.............

Kandy is a talent, Zhuke is very clear about this.

During his more than a year of time, Zhuke invited him to join his company many times, but he refused. In his words, he doesn't want to be restrained at all now, he just wants to be a freelancer.

I have to say that when it comes to acquiring the TV station, Kangdi's actions are amazing.

In just less than a week, we basically agreed to a TV station. Oh no, to be precise, it is a TV network with two TV stations.

——UPN TV!

Sometimes I have to sigh at the wonder of fate. The owner of UPN TV is the Viacom Group, the parent company of old friend Paramount.

Speaking of UPN TV, there may not be many people know about it in the future, but when it comes to the CW name, some people have heard of it.

"Superman", "The Flash", "The Vampire Diary"......

The above American dramas are all produced by CW TV.

CW TV is a public television network in the United States. It was founded in 2006. Its predecessor was based on Warner's WB TV network and Paramount's UPN TV network.

“Zhuke, UPN TV is definitely the best TV station for you to need right now.”

Kangdi explained: "This company was established in 1992 and has a relatively complete staffing structure in various departments. After the broadcast, due to the sluggish viewership ratings over the years, the price is not high. According to statistics, the company's estimates, its acquisition price is about 30 million to 32 million US dollars."

More than 30 million US dollars?!

Upon hearing this, Zhu Ke couldn't help rolling his eyes.

Come on ~!

Because he sold the full overseas copyright and sequel production rights of "Juno", the $32 million that he had just obtained from Paramount is now going to be thrown back to them again.

However, it's not a pity for Zhu Ke.

Although the money is gone, I have bought a TV station at least. Do you think so?

"Now, you don't have to look for a playback platform for "SpongeBob SquarePants"; well, by the way, there is also the North American copyright of "Good Talent", so you don't have to sell it anymore. You can do it yourself!"

For a moment, Zucker thought a lot.

Huh?

It seems that you can do it in the All-American Live Wrestling Competition (WEE)!

The second update of "" is given.
