Chapter 1103： tendency
The reception continued. Ronan and Jessica Felton then went to other places and greeted some familiar people. Not only people from Hollywood movie circles, but also San Francisco business districts came here tonight. some people.
Here is the famous Silicon Valley in the world.
Strictly speaking, a large part of Lucasfilm's business also belongs to the computer industry, which itself is inextricably linked to Silicon Valley.
Ronan met Apple's chief operating officer Tim Cook at the reception and briefly asked about Steve Jobs.
The leader of Qiao’s physical condition is not very satisfactory. He was admitted to the hospital again last month. Tim Cook temporarily replaced Jobs and took over the management of Apple.
If nothing happens, Tim Cook will soon become the new head of Apple.
And compared to Steve Jobs, he has more merchant attributes.
Once on the Internet across the Pacific, many people joked that Steve Jobs made products and Tim Cook sold products.
The Qiao Gang has little time and can change without human resources. If he can persist to this day, his banknote ability has played a vital role.
Ronan still remembers that a colleague at the time said that cancer treatments such as liver cancer, lung cancer and pancreatic cancer can all be described in one sentence-first take your money, and then your life.
There used to be a saying that spread widely, the disease that the world cannot cure is...the disease of poverty.
Therefore, countless people try their best to change their destiny. This is manifested in Hollywood, which is a variety of well-known rules.
It's not just Hollywood. Looking at workplaces and business circles, similar situations are not uncommon.
There are always people who want to take shortcuts.
Jessica Felton met a female classmate who was at the USC Film School and chatted with her alone, who is now a middle and high-level executive of Lucasfilm.
Ronan turned around and chatted with Mark Randolph for a while, and saw George Lucas walk to the floor-to-ceiling window alone, and then returned to his side.
"How come you became a person?" George Lucas asked Ronan, looking at him.
Ronan didn't go around in circles, and said, "George, find a place to chat alone?"
George Lucas nodded slightly: "Yes."
He and Ronan went out of the banquet hall and into the adjacent lounge.
George Lucas sat on the sofa and asked, "Ronan, are you looking for me?"
Ronan said directly: "Yes, about your retirement. George, we have been friends for many years. I have a question for you. You are planning to retire, what about Lucasfilm?"
George Lucas did not answer immediately. Instead, he looked at Ronan and said slowly: "It seems you have ideas for Lucasfilm."
Ronan didn't need to deny it, saying: "I think there are not many people in this world who are not interested in Lucasfilm."
George Lucas said: "I have considered selling Lucasfilm, but it's just an idea at the moment."
Ronan immediately answered: "George, you know enough about me and Relativity Entertainment. Lucasfilm is your child. If you want to find a guardian again, don't you choose the one you are familiar with and the one you know enough? "
George Lucas has always had a very good impression of Ronan and Relativity Entertainment. He smiled and said: "Indeed, Relativity Entertainment is a good choice."
It is not difficult to judge from George Lucas’ words that he does have the idea of selling Lucasfilm.
Ronan has been in contact with George Lucas for many years and has a very good personal relationship. He also planned for a long time without too much circle. He said: "We have the same philosophy. Relativity Entertainment and Lucas Pictures cooperate closely. There is too much conflict."
This is what George Lucas considered. He thought for a while and said: "Ronan, I can only say that. I am going to retire, and I do mean to sell Lucasfilm. You and Relativity Entertainment I think it’s also a good choice. But you understand that Lucasfilm is not my own company. I cannot make a decision right away, nor can I give you any promise."
Ronan nodded slightly: "I understand."
George Lucas is the majority shareholder of Lucasfilm, but not the only shareholder.
Besides, he and George Lucas do have a very good personal relationship, but this will involve a transaction of up to 3 billion US dollars.
This kind of transaction involving billions of dollars requires careful and long-term argumentation and negotiation. No one will finalize the cooperation intention in a few words. Ronan and George Lucas are no exception. George Lucas is behind. His attitude is very clear. If he sells Lucasfilm, and the conditions are similar, he will give priority to Relativity Entertainment.
If someone bid far higher than Relativity Entertainment, then I can only say sorry.
In short, the two did not reach a clear intention, but were very interested in each other.
In fact, Ronan knows very well that under the premise that George Lucas convinces other shareholders to sell Lucasfilm, the biggest obstacle does not come from Lucasfilm itself, but the hidden dangers that may exist outside. Dao's theory of relativity cannot be bypassed by entertainment.
Lucasfilm has three key profitable projects, one is Industrial Light and Magic, the other is the "Star Wars" series, and the third is the "Indiana Jones" series.
Industrial Light and Magic need not be careful, this is the world's most powerful film special effects company, not one of them! Moreover, although Industrial Light & Magic's profit is not too much, it is relatively stable, and its business is relatively independent, without too many external factors like movies.
For the "Indiana Jones" series, Paramount Pictures has a certain right to speak-Paramount and Lucasfilm jointly produced the series, and also has the right to distribute-given the characteristics of this series, if it can be acquired Lucas Pictures will make a sequel or restart later, Ronan doesn't mind the cooperation between Relativity Entertainment and Paramount Pictures.
The biggest trouble lies in Lucasfilm’s most profitable "Star Wars" series, even if it was hit by the financial crisis in 2007, the toys of the "Star Wars" series and peripheral products that do not include DVDs and TV network on-demand copyrights. , Still brought Lucasfilm's net profit of more than 231 million US dollars!
If Relativity Entertainment wins Lucasfilm, it will definitely restart the "Star Wars" series, and Twentieth Century Fox will become the biggest obstacle.
Twentieth Century Fox owns the copyright of "Star Wars: A New Hope", and as the distributor of the entire series, it also has long-term ownership of the revenue copyright of part of the offline distribution.
After the successful acquisition of Relativity Entertainment, if the "Star Wars" series of DVD discs are re-released, 20th Century Fox will not be able to overcome obstacles.
"Lucasfilm has demonstrated extraordinary imagination, passion and visual effects, as well as the ability to tell stories consistently from its founder, George Lucas. If Lucasfilm is a The world-class film database and the unique and inexhaustible creativity of Relativity Entertainment in platform, business and market operations are united, and it will definitely bring long-term, visible and significant driving force and benefits to Relativity Entertainment."
This is what Robert Iger said to Ronan when discussing matters related to Lucasfilm the following day. The CEO of Relativity Entertainment, like Ronan, made no secret of his views on Lucas. The desire of the film industry.
Except for the special effects department that can get Industrial Light and Magic, which is urgently needed by Relativity Entertainment, Lucasfilm's series of classic film images are an effective supplement to the Relativity Entertainment film and television brand.
Just like Marvel’s superhero movies have begun to sweep the world, with the support of the huge platform of Relativity Entertainment, the new “Star Wars” in the future will become even more popular.
In the eyes of many people, movies like Star Wars are simply not worth mentioning, and they are extremely vulgar, but no one can deny that it is these ‘daydream’ movies that can become popular all over the world.
People like to embrace this experience. On the one hand, it is really interesting. On the other hand, most audiences in the world regard movies as a way of consumption that can provide themselves with simple and even pure entertainment.
For the widest audience and the consideration of maximizing benefits, the successful model of big groups, big investments and big movies is destined to be the mainstream. If the "Star Wars" series is restarted, it will certainly be included in this model.
At the high-level meeting of Relativity Entertainment, it didn't take much time to reach an agreement on the acquisition of Lucasfilm.
After getting the latest answer from George Lucas, Relativity Entertainment will form a small team in advance to quietly contact Lucasfilm to promote the acquisition as soon as possible.
George Lucas has decided to retire and sell Lucasfilm, but he needs to do the work of other shareholders.
After several years of hard work by Ronan, George Lucas is undoubtedly seriously inclined to relativistic entertainment.
Of course, the prerequisite is that the relativity entertainment bid should be appropriate.
Relativity Entertainment has already evaluated Lucas Pictures, which is roughly within $4 billion.
The specifics depend on the results of the final talks between the two parties.
Time is getting closer to Independence Day, and the weekend before Independence Day, "Alice in Wonderland" was officially released in North America.
Due to the continued popularity of "Avatar" , too many audiences around the world have been interested in 3D movies, and even 3D glasses have become a hot commodity.
In the short term, the only true-3D movie that can be released is "Alice in Wonderland".
Fairy tales are a scene that never fades in Hollywood movies. Romantic innocence and wild fantasy are the eternal themes of fairy tale movies.
This magnificent 3D visual special effects impact gave "Alice in Wonderland" an extraordinary attraction.
Moreover, the film has won the hearts of female audiences, who think the film is imaginative and full of childishness.
With the help of "Avatar", it appeared in the movie with a posture that best meets the market demand. This live-action fairy tale movie, which is as gorgeous as "Avatar", has received the market response it deserves.
During the North American premiere weekend, "Alice in Wonderland" received $142.56 million at the box office in 4022 theaters.
