That year Huayu

Chapter 946 Good guy! Main melody commercial film and main melody commercial film...

“At 8 a.m., Wanda issued an official announcement:

After several months of negotiations, the group finally fully acquired Hollywood's top film production giant, Legendary Pictures, at a price of US$3.5 billion and approximately RMB 23 billion;

From now on, Wanda Pictures will officially enter Hollywood, participate in global film production and distribution business, and compete in the global film box office market. "

“It is reported that since Wanda spent US$3.1 billion to acquire 100% of the shares of AMC Cinemas in May 2012, it has already become the world’s largest cinema chain owner;

Now that Legendary Pictures is once again under its ownership, Wanda has truly become one of the top giants in Hollywood and the global film industry;

Its global business scope covers film production, distribution, investment, theaters, entertainment and other branches of the film and television industry, and its influence is huge. "

“According to Hollywood Movie Daily, reprinted from Legendary Pictures’ announcement:

Legendary Pictures has recently completed the transfer of all shares and will continue to operate independently in the future;

All the films produced by the group will not be affected by the change of ownership of the group..."

…

The domestic film and television entertainment industry is in a state of complete excitement.

Because compared to Crystal Pictures, which is owned by Lin Nan, Wanda is truly one step ahead, directly opening the door to Hollywood;

And from production, distribution to theaters, they are all top company teams in the global film industry, and the upstream and downstream industry chains are completely closed.

"You said you knew about this?"

Wang Changtian called over excitedly, but was disappointed by Lin Nan's words.

"I learned about it yesterday morning, the news came from Hollywood."

"Yeah, I'm confused. You also have a medium-sized company there, and you are indeed better informed than everyone else in the country except Wanda.

Gee, originally it was said that other domestic capital would not be able to get involved in the "Great Wall" project; but who would have thought that Wanda would directly launch a big project and swallow up Legend? !

Well, now, A-level major productions such as "The Great Wall" and "Kong: Skull Island" are all movies invested by Wanda, and they account for a lot of them. They really caught everyone off guard. "

Lin Nan smiled and responded, Wang Changtian was absolutely right;

The entire domestic film and television industry is definitely in a state of confusion at the moment, and its attitude towards Wanda will inevitably be adjusted and changed in the future;

In the past, it might have been because Wanda Cinema was unwilling to offend him, but in the future, he will probably be "flattering".

After all, that is Legendary Pictures, one of the giants in Hollywood; although it is ranked lower among the top ten giants, its strength is definitely unquestionable.

As for the Chinese film industry, which company or actor or star doesn’t want to go out to Hollywood and the international stage? The answer is: none!

"For us, this is a good thing; as for other people, it's hard to say."

Lin Nan was also in a good mood. Wanda had been his ally for many years.

"Well said, it is indeed a great thing for us!" Wang Changtian also agreed with a smile.

Huayi, Chairman's Office.

Both Wang Zhongjun and Wang Zhonglei have a feeling of "when the house leaks, it rains all night". In the past month, everything has been really not going well.

After poaching Ye Ning and a large number of backbones of Wanda Cinema, they are not worried about anything, nor are they afraid of facing off against Wanda;

After all, in the domestic film and television industry, Huayi is much stronger than Wanda in terms of overall strength!

But Wanda’s move to swallow up Legendary Pictures is really not what they want to see;

Because this means that the opponent who is already destined to be a mortal enemy has become stronger, and has even surpassed Huayi in terms of momentum. After all, it is Wanda that has merged with Legendary Pictures!

"Does Ye Ning know about this?"

"You should know, wasn't he also a senior executive of Wanda before? It should have been in the negotiation stage at that time, but I guess it was just a matter of money."

Hearing what Wang Zhonglei said, Wang Zhongjun was not angry at Ye Ning for hiding the matter from them, but instead had a smile on his face.

"He is really loyal to Wanda. It's very good. It's very worthwhile to find people like this. But it can also be seen that he really doesn't want to stay in Wanda;

What if it becomes stronger and stronger, and even becomes a giant in the global film industry? Big Laowang is still a bit stingy with senior executives and is reluctant to part with shares. hehe……"

"Who should let Wanda be conceited? If there are too many talents, it will naturally not be cherished. Ye Ning is also a veteran executive."

After Wang Zhonglei laughed, he immediately turned into a serious face:

"Brother, there is only one month left. We must make preparations in advance to completely break up with Wanda... overtly and secretly, we will inevitably have to do a few things."

"Well, competition is definitely necessary, but this is the domestic film and television industry, and we are the number one capital of the private sector." Wang Zhongjun said quite confidently.

…

The closer to the end of the year, the more activities there are.

It was better for Liu Yifei when she returned to her hometown. There was no need to report to her at Hongxingwu. A large number of announcements and invitations had been rejected in accordance with previous instructions.

But Lin Nan was different. He was still in the capital, and the only people who could send him invitations were dinners, cocktail parties, and movie premieres held by capital circles.

Lin Nan could refuse most invitations, but he couldn't avoid a few, such as the movie promotion conference of "The Mermaid" in which Lin Nan himself participated in the investment.

In Ren Zhonglun's words, since he couldn't attend the premiere, he couldn't miss the promotion conference, otherwise he would be gossiped about.

So, Lin Nan sat in the first row with Ren Zhonglun at the crowded promotion site and listened to a "funny" song.

Well, Zhou Xingchi wrote the lyrics and composed the music, and Deng Chao sang it - "Invincible"!

After listening to it, Lin Nan couldn't help laughing; although he was tone-deaf, he could appreciate it.

This is obviously an extremely pretentious and heroic song, but when Deng Chao sang it, it was particularly in line with the plot setting of the movie, with the taste of coquettishness, greasyness and nouveau riche;

It can only be said that Zhou Xingchi designed it well, and it is indeed "invincible"!

"Wanda swallowed Legendary, and Tudou's valuation will probably go up as well."

Ren Zhonglun leaned his upper body and muttered to Lin Nan. On the stage, Zhou Xingchi was answering reporters' questions and talking about the creative background of "The Mermaid".

"Well, there will definitely be gains. In addition, Wang Wei will also talk to Wanda about the domestic online broadcast rights of some foreign language films owned by Legendary Pictures."

Hearing Lin Nan say this, Ren Zhonglun couldn't help but feel a little envious.

"This is the strong alliance of film and television capital. Even if Shanghai Film and China Film were listed, it would be impossible for such an alliance to bring about the resource superposition and mutual blessing effect."

"Who made Shanghai Film and China Film be state-owned enterprises? Only state-owned enterprises can form alliances with state-owned enterprises. Private enterprises? They are not equal in status, so they are not qualified to form alliances. And if they are not careful, they will get themselves involved." Lin Nan smiled meaningfully.

"Just keep being sarcastic."

Ren Zhonglun complained unhappily, and then lowered his voice:

"We will try to submit the Railroad Tigers for review later, and plan to put it in the Lunar New Year period... Do you have any good suggestions?"

"No, I will be kind enough not to boycott you publicly at that time, so don't mention that to me.

You just need to be prepared to be boycotted and scolded by the audience, and the rest is up to you."

Seeing Lin Nan's attitude of hiding from the plague god, Ren Zhonglun was speechless. The atmosphere that was just good just disappeared.

At this time, Zhou Xingchi had already implicitly talked about what would happen after the movie was released, that is, the box office issue.

"I hope the box office of The Mermaid can be comparable to Lin's Detective Chinatown..."

At the press conference in the afternoon, Lin Nan was just a tool, purely for the media.

When the conference ended, he also left alone, without greeting anyone in the circle.

However, when he turned around inadvertently and caught a glimpse of Ren Zhonglun from afar, somehow, Operation Mekong suddenly flashed through his mind.

Wow, at this moment, Lin Nan's entire head was clear.

Operation Mekong is a mainstream commercial film, about drug enforcement!

And Railroad Tigers is also a mainstream commercial film, but...

What's even more unfortunate is that Lin Nan had previously intended to put Operation Mekong on the big schedule in the second half of the year, but he is not in a hurry to submit it for review or schedule it!

"This is really... great!" Lin Nan muttered in his mouth and got into the car.

...

The first day box office of Star Wars: The Force Awakens came out. Because it was Saturday, it relied on the advantage of the series of blockbusters to directly cut a high box office of 150 million;

And Detective Chinatown is still strong, holding 110 million.

As Lin Nan joked with Yue Jun before: The big brother and the second brother fought, and the result was that all the younger brothers were killed.

Because these two movies together directly took 98.66% of the daily box office! Isn't this crushing all other movies?

"The filming team has already set the schedule, which is after the Spring Festival arranged by Hongxingwu. The new extension key application has not yet come down..."

Sitting in the office and yawning, Lin Nan signed the document report of the total tax to be paid for the whole year of last year, and the finance department will handle it.

The company has a lot of business, whether it is box office sharing or other income, the arrival time will basically be delayed for a while, after all, this is the case in the film and television industry;

And the finance department pays taxes once a year, which is indeed more convenient. It's just a one-time summary, this number...

"Well, I know. You don't need to tell me about "Three Lives Three Worlds Ten Miles of Peach Blossoms", just let Director Jiang contact Hongxingwu. As for the extension key, it should be available within a week."

While responding to Yue Jun, Lin Nan handed the signed documents and receipts directly to the finance department without looking at them again.

Because the tax number made his heart tremble!
