Chapter 429: Major changes in Magi’s equity!
It seems that Lin Mo got the upper hand, but in fact, this 8% also includes 3D's technology investment.
However, Magi only has the right to use the 3D technology and has technical authorization for North America. The copyright of the original technology is still in Lin Mo's hands.
The 3D laboratory has developed an effective technical packaging method, so even if you get a prototype in North America, it will still take at least five years of research and development.
During this period of time, Daxia will be able to build cinemas all over the world!
This determines that Daxia can effectively protect the technical copyright of 3D technology and has an absolute dominant advantage in the market!
Lin Mo even made concessions on this matter. If the technology was made public to Magi, he could get more shares.
Everyone also reached a consensus that the 3D matter must be kept absolutely confidential!
Waiting for the release of "The Wandering Earth"!
By then, not only will the film be released, but the technology will also be released simultaneously!
Seize the initiative and catch the entire market off guard!
During this period, Magi's financial problems were supported by the 1 billion US dollars, and Lin Mo had a lot of cash flow. He just didn't want to invest real money in heavy assets, otherwise it would be possible to save Magi.
"Mr. Xiaolin, I really like The Wandering Earth. It's very broad and the story is very exciting. Doing a 3D version of a science fiction theme is a brilliant idea."
Foreigners' emotional intelligence is to first praise, then say "but..."
"However, after all, 3D technology has been launched, and I hope that subsequent works will be launched soon to facilitate our market expansion."
"I know resources are tight, but do you have other scripts that would be suitable for Hollywood audiences? We can work on those projects simultaneously."
Lin Mo thought about it carefully.
After filming The Wandering Earth, if he is still directing the film, it will probably take another year to make the second part.
What Stephen said makes sense.
“Of course!”
Stephen's frown instantly relaxed, and his last worry disappeared.
He knew Lin Mo, a very outstanding screenwriter and director. To say he was a genius was just a stroke of luck.
The technology is from the Avengers, so if we use their scripts and people to shoot, we don’t have to worry about it being leaked overseas too early.
He also considered that "The Wandering Earth" was too heavily influenced by the Daxia culture, and he was worried that the story would not be well-suited for Hollywood.
A 3D movie suitable for North America is needed to kick off the technological revolution.
He saw it from the previous "Resident Evil" that Lin Mo is definitely capable of making a movie suitable for Western audiences!
"Tong'er, customize the movie 'Transformers'!"
[Customization successful! Reputation value -2000!]
Magi came and went in a hurry without even saying a word.
This makes it difficult for outsiders to understand.
"What's going on? Where's the cooperation press conference? Where's the strategic agreement? Where's the contract? Where's the handshake photo?"
"You left without anything?"
"Something's wrong? Didn't we reach an agreement?"
"Much thunder, little rain! Wasn't it quite a big deal when it came?"
Magi returned to Hollywood without leaving anything behind and refusing to accept interviews.
All of Hollywood is dying of laughter, especially Lionsgate.
“Hahahahahahahahaha!”
"I'm desperate and I'm going to try anything! I've lost my mind! I'm actually looking for Daxia? Daxia is nothing!"
"I think we can bring forward our plan. How many scattered shares have we collected on the market?"
“About 2%.”
"It's still too little. Try talking to the small shareholders!"
"good!"
If I had approached the small shareholders a month ago, there might still be a chance.
But now, almost everyone who has gone to Daxia feels extremely excited.
To sum it up in one sentence: the sky is clear, the rain has stopped, and I feel like I’m fine again!
Lionsgate's plan is to take advantage of the frequent bad news about Magi to buy shares at a low price and then take over the board of directors.
I have to say, this timing is great!
Magi made a desperate effort to find the Avengers, but returned empty-handed!
This is a perfect time to bargain!
Bad news is spreading throughout Hollywood.
Everyone is watching as Magi, the giant that has dominated North America for 80 years, is about to collapse!
Lionsgate contacted Magi's shareholders everywhere in order to acquire shares and gain the right to speak first.
But it turned out that...the situation was not what they thought.
I contacted several people, but they avoided the topic or refused to meet me at all.
Judging from the attitude of the shareholders, it doesn't seem like they are planning to sell out and run away...
Although Magi received 1 billion US dollars, it could not withstand the malicious speculation and frequent bad news from the outside world.
What we are afraid of is that retail investors in the financial market will trigger a chain reaction, and if small amounts accumulate to become large ones, like an ant swallowing an elephant...by then, it will no longer be something that can be controlled by billions of dollars.
They need to hold on, at least until 3D comes out!
Therefore, whether it is due to the situation or because the large-scale equity changes of listed companies cannot be concealed, the news of the Avengers' investment must be made public!
The funds were in place quickly, and the contract and other related matters were completed working overtime.
Magi announced the news in a very low-key manner without posting any tweets.
Rather, there are new names on the CSRC's shareholder list.
It takes someone who is interested to take the initiative to check it out.
In this situation, there shouldn't be too many people with ulterior motives...
There is one more name in it: The Avengers, and the number of shares held is 57.8 million.
This is no small change! For a multi-billion dollar behemoth, this is a monumental shift!
“!!!”
“???”
"Boss, boss! Magi's shareholder list has changed!"
"Changed? Was it us? Did we receive more than 5% of the shares?"
"No, it's just a little over 2!"
"Who is that?"
Lionsgate boss Jack's lifelong dream is to become the best in Hollywood. Facts have also proved that he has some talents not only in the film market, but also in the capital market.
Over the past decade, Lionsgate has continued to expand and has become the third largest studio in Hollywood.
Now he couldn't wait any longer and was eager to gain control of Magi.
The result!!! Miscalculated!
A Cheng Yaojin suddenly appears out of nowhere!
"The Avengers?"
"What is this?"
"The Avengers...The Avengers? Never heard of them!"
“!!!”
Of course, the locals found the name strange and weird, but the previous news was still fresh in their minds, and some people reacted immediately.
"Damn! Boss, that Daxia company is called the Avengers!!! It's the one Magi went to Daxia to meet half a month ago!"
“Fxxx!”
Everyone thought Magi was there to discuss cooperation! But he turned out to be asking for money!
[Avengers invests in Magi!]
[Daxia Company's Avengers Alliance becomes Magi's 4th largest shareholder! ]
[Magi has a turning point, the Avengers have joined the game! ! ]
【Magi's equity situation undergoes major changes!】
Avengers Becomes Major Shareholder of Magi, Holding 8% of Shares
[The Avengers officially enter Hollywood! ]
At this moment, Hollywood was dumbfounded!
“!!!”
"They've been talking for so long, are they discussing equity?"
Judging from the results, it really is...
But there is a nuclear bomb hidden under this bomb...
"So they want the money from Daxia, but not from Lion Gate?"
"...You know what Lionsgate is up to. You can't take their money from anyone!"
"Why didn't I think of that?"
“No one could have imagined that!”
"Magi begged and pleaded everywhere and finally found Daxia! What a brilliant solution!"
"Uh uh uh, I never thought that a Hollywood giant would eventually need to seek help from the Daxia people?! What's wrong with feeling a little sad?"
"No, how did they get in touch with the Avengers?"
