DreamWorks' listing process is in full swing.
Because the Hong Kong stock market does not allow companies with AB share structures to be listed, and the A-share review process is too long, as well as DreamWorks's strategy of going overseas with its films, it was finally decided that DreamWorks would be listed on the US stock market.
By the end of September, DreamWorks' IPO preparation team was officially established.
A listing preparation team composed of two top securities firms, CICC and Morgan, entered DreamWorks to conduct various asset audits and investigations, and signed various agreements and contracts.
The entire listing process will be completed in about eight months.
This is already a fairly fast process. If it were in China, it would probably take at least three years.
Lu Hao could still accept this time.
…
In addition to the preparations for DreamWorks' listing, Lu Hao is currently focusing more of his energy on the Film Guild and DreamWorks University.
Film Guild.
The state has allocated special funds for supporting the development of the film market industry for half a year. The total amount of subsidies this year is 6 billion yuan, which can be said to be a very large piece of cake.
There are quite a few people who are jealous of this.
In order to better promote the use of funds, Lu Hao once again convened a meeting and shared the previous list of 100 overseas films with all film companies.
Originally, these things were planned to be discussed together with other first-line film companies, but since the last meeting, the only one that has reached a clear cooperation intention and has already started cooperation is Qilin Film and Television.
To be honest, Lu Hao was very dissatisfied with this result.
Most other companies are still waiting and watching.
There are indeed several companies that have held discussions with DreamWorks to some extent, but probably due to a series of concerns about costs and benefits, no agreement has been reached.
To put it bluntly, we are still worried about raising a tiger that will cause harm.
There is a concern that DreamWorks will leverage such enormous resources to achieve a leap to a higher level, becoming the top of the top and the core source of content for all film and television companies.
In fact, such concerns are not without reason.
After all, with a huge amount of high-quality works on one hand and a huge amount of funds on the other, it is really hard for people not to be wary of such operations.
However, time is running out and Lu Hao no longer has the patience to argue with these people.
If you don't have the vision to seize the opportunity given to you, don't blame yourself for being rude.
At this conference, Lu Hao simply opened up the cooperation rights for these 100 films to all small and medium-sized companies with some strength in the film and television industry.
Such a move is sure to attract massive opposition from first-tier film and television giants. Lu Hao even received a call from Wang Xinjian and inquiries from leaders of higher-level departments.
However, he persevered.
He implemented his established policies with tough and iron-blooded tactics that were almost to the point of death.
Abandon the first-tier giants and fully embrace small and medium-sized teams.
One hundred films, each film as a project, start a joint shooting mode.
Funding comes from three parties.
On the one hand, the state’s support funds for the film industry are injected in the form of investment, occupying equity returns and sharing box office revenue.
The other party is DreamWorks, which also injected capital in the form of investment.
The third party is naturally the company that is interested in cooperation.
Once this model was launched, it received widespread acclaim from a large number of small and medium-sized teams, who began to select film projects with suitable themes and started applying.
In less than two weeks, one hundred films, one hundred projects, all got sold.
The masses have a keen eye.
As the new president of the Film Guild and the boss of DreamWorks, Lu Hao now wants to take everyone to eat meat and drink soup together, so naturally we have to follow closely.
The opportunity is right in front of you. If you don’t seize it, it will be a waste.
You should know...
Big companies may worry about DreamWorks becoming too big, but these small and medium-sized companies don’t have such worries at all.
If they want to catch up with the scale of DreamWorks, they still need a long time to develop. Now they are far from considering the competition level. If there is an opportunity for cooperation, they will jump on board quickly.
The most important thing is to develop yourself first.
It is no exaggeration to say that Lu Hao's move really offended all the first-line giants.
It even reached a point where they were almost enemies.
I won’t go into much detail about other things. Just the letters of complaint issued by these companies have caused Lu Hao to receive many calls asking what exactly happened and whether he has lost control.
Lu Hao endured the pressure and defended himself over and over again, as if he was dancing on the edge of a knife.
But he has already burned his boats and is risking everything.
This matter can be said to be a gamble.
But no matter whether he wins or loses, there is no doubt that he will make countless enemies.
He even became enemies with Fang Jing.
Lao Fang was confused.
When Lu Hao first came to power, he played a lot of roles in forming alliances and could be said to have made great contributions. However, he never expected that after fully supporting Lu Hao to come to power, Lu Hao would actually do such a thing.
I had a falling out with Fang Jing and had a big fight in the office.
But there was nothing for Lu Hao to feel sorry for, and nothing to be afraid of.
If I can accomplish this, the film and television industry will definitely be prosperous and flourishing, and I will become a figure recorded in the history of film.
Lu Hao is 100% confident that he can accomplish this.
