Chapter 897： Sad Youth

At the Theory of Relativity Building, Robert Iger entered Ronan's office early in the morning.

"The plan is generally smoother." Robert Iger picked up the black tea that Connie had sent, and said before drinking: "The most likely accident is on Wall Street."

He drank lipstick tea and continued: "The Wall Street houses may take action in order to maximize their benefits."

Ronan said: "No matter how they move, we reach the set goal and immediately retreat."

Hearing this, Robert Iger was obviously relieved: "Actually, I was a little worried before I came here..."

Ronan laughed: "Worry about my involvement in finance and the stock market too much?"

"Yes." Robert Iger told the truth: "There are too many company leaders who have tasted the benefits on this and felt that it was a shortcut to gain and success, but in the end..."

He did not go further, the meaning was obvious.

Ronan said: "We are a physical company, and everything is based on physical business. In terms of physical business, even Wall Street has nothing to do with us. But we are too deep into the financial market and exhaust most of the company's resources to play short or short positions. With that set of hedges, we will only become a piece of fat on the chopping board of Wall Street."

Robert Iger is really relieved: "You think so, you are lucky for Relativity Entertainment."

Wall Street seems to be very calm in its treatment of relativistic entertainment. On the one hand, it is because there are many more consistent interest demands for the time being. On the other hand, it is not waiting for opportunities.

Waiting for the opportunity of Relativity Entertainment to completely enter the financial market.

It's the home of Wall Street!

Ronan said: "In the eyes of others, I am conservative."

"Being conservative and cautious is an advantage." Robert Iger said: "Be brave only when you should be brave, and being conservative and cautious at other times is not a bad thing."

At this point, he just mentioned: "Goldman Sachs's Lloyd Blankfein sent an invitation. Several of them are going to short Disney and asking if we want to participate."

"It's a big temptation." Even if Ronan is not proficient in finance, he knows that this is a good opportunity to short Disney, and said: "I seem to see huge profits. The appeal of financial opium is terrible."

Robert Iger understood Ronan's meaning and said: "If we mobilize huge sums of money to participate, the dominant power will not be in our hands, and it is not the battlefield preset by Relativity Entertainment. All initiative will be lost."

Ronan said, "Let's watch it get better." He asked, "Does Goldman Sachs have time to plan?"

Robert Iger said: "Take the Disney shareholders meeting as the node and wait for the completion of the transaction we promised them."

Ronan thought for a while, and said: "Replied to Lloyd Blankfein. Relativity Entertainment is currently in short supply. I will not participate in this feast. I wish them success."

This is also true, because Relativity Entertainment will formally acquire Pixar Studios next, which requires a considerable amount of capital.

Robert Iger said: "I will reply to Lloyd Blankfein in the afternoon."

Ronan added, "Since they plan to get involved, Bob, you communicate with them and ask them to do some work. For example, let some people see a good opportunity to invest in Disney and bring us enough income. ."

"It's not difficult." Robert Iger said: "We still have some initiative."

The so-called good news is actually created by Relativity Entertainment, and Ronan can burst this bubble at any time as long as he is willing.

Of course, piercing in advance will not do any good for those on Wall Street or the entertainment of relativity.

Ronan stood up, came to the south window, and looked at Burbank: "I hope there will be no accidents."

Robert Iger came next to him: "At this point, Michael Eisner can only go down this road. In fact, Roy Disney is not his greatest enemy, time is his greatest enemy. He realized that When Roy Disney really brought a threat, it was too late and there was not enough time to deal with it."

Ronan said: "Otherwise we won't have a chance."

Robert Iger took the words: "Such opportunities are also created by our efforts."

The secret alliance between Relativity Entertainment and Roy Disney has severely compressed Michael Eisner's operational space.

"Pixar Studio has taken back the copyright of the animated feature film, and we have also got what we want." Ronan solemnly said: "There are still two main tasks left. Final negotiations with Pixar Studio and a formal acquisition agreement are signed. Your team is responsible for everything."

Robert Iger said: "In order to avoid the attention of the media and interested people, our negotiation team with Pixar has been conducting secret negotiations in India. The specific conditions are basically negotiated, and we only wait for the time to sign a formal contract."

He thought a little and continued: "Then it is Disney’s equity. Relativity Entertainment currently holds 3% of Disney’s equity. As far as the current market conditions are concerned, this equity will appreciate by 17%. If we If it can be sold smoothly, the profit margin may reach 150 million US dollars. Of course, I am talking about selling through the stock market, which will inevitably bring about stock price volatility..."

Ronan said: "So, the best way is to find a large investor."

Robert Iger said very seriously: "This is Disney after all. There will definitely be many people who want to invest."

Disney, one of the six traditional Hollywood companies, the world's leading animation film production giant, and today's most powerful distributor of animation products.

Of course there are people who want to invest in such companies!

Relativity Entertainment will complete the acquisition of Pixar Studios on the third Monday of December, which is after the Disney shareholders meeting. Pixar Studios has taken back the copyright of all animated feature films and short animated films from Disney.

Counting from Disney’s first animated film "Snow White" to the last successful hand-painted animated feature film "Tarzan" in 1999, Relativity Entertainment has all obtained live-action filming and all the licenses around it, that is, as long as the opportunity is right , Shahai Entertainment can copy the stories and songs widely circulated because of Disney movies to create a live-action version of fairy tale movies.

Correspondingly, Disney also lost the right to shoot live-action movies.

Apart from anything else, "Beauty and the Beast", "The Little Mermaid", "Aladdin", "Cinderella", and the real beast version of "The Lion King", etc., may mean billions of dollars or even tens of billions of dollars. Income.

In addition, Ronan is still poaching Disney Animation Studios. Of course, it is not the computer animation technicians who are much inferior to Pixar, but the older group of Disney hand-drawn animation producers.

This group of people, with the decline of hand-drawn animation, marginalized their status within Disney, and may even be abolished.

But they are precisely the inheritors of Disney princesses.

As long as they can accept and absorb new ideas, these people have a great chance to design a brand new animated princess suitable for the new era.

Once Disney's animation studio has reproduced its glorious experience, Pixar Studios joined Disney, and the two major players forced John Lasseter and Idel Camel to take full control of the Disney animation department. The key is the traditional production left by Disney Animation Studios. The personnel also contributed.

No one knows better than these guys what kind of animated princesses audiences all over the world need!

Although the strength is far from enough to swallow Disney, Ronan and Robert Iger, a person who is very familiar with Disney, made a plan early to **** Disney content, dig Disney's corner, and further create Disney's chaos and let Disney This traditional big company continues to weaken as much as possible.

Once Walt Disney's two major businesses have fallen into the hands of Relativity Entertainment.

Pixar Studios and Marvel Comics!

In fact, the most important thing left is to find a good buyer and try to sell Disney's shares at a good price.

As for playing short-selling and hedging with Wall Street people, Ronan is still conservative and cautious. It is an unfamiliar and very dangerous field.

Frankly speaking, there are not a few people who want to invest in or replace the Big Six companies, and not many really have the strength.

Moreover, according to Ronan's standards, it is not only as simple as finding a buyer, but also to introduce to Disney a careerist who has certain strength and desire to fight for power.

Thus, the situation of the two Walt Disney's competition for hegemony has evolved into a tripartite.

Walt Disney’s internal struggles are not going to be quelled within a short period of time. When the internals are integrated, there may be brand-new changes in the Hollywood landscape.

If you fall behind one step at a time, you may fall behind step by step.

As far as the current results are concerned, Relativity Entertainment has become invincible, and there will be more room for operation in the future.

Such an ambition may be difficult for others to find, but Ronan has been prepared long ago, and he is even familiar with each other.

A new force in Hollywood officially entered the market this year. Their strength is not that strong, but the funds they hold and can quickly mobilize may not be comparable to large traditional Hollywood companies.

Ronan has dealt with them several times did a lot of work in advance.

The company is called Maple Leaf Pictures, and it has two super funders-Ryan Kavanaugh, who told many Wall Street small and medium-sized investment institutions to raise funds, and the tragic young man David, who will return to Oracle to inherit tens of billions of property if he fails to start his own business. -Ellison.

On the weekend before Thanksgiving, a very special family carnival movie about the Theory of Relativity was about to be released, and Agent Bryant, who spoke for dads around the world, came again.

Ronan specially asked Ryan Kavanaugh and David Ellison to send premiere invitations, ready to have a good talk with these two.

But before that, someone suddenly came to visit because of Disney's equity.

Facts have proved that the attractiveness of big traditional Hollywood companies is not so big. David Ellison is not the only one of the super rich second generation who intends to develop into Hollywood and the tragic youth who might go home to inherit tens of billions of dollars in movies.
