Chapter 645: Not worth the loss

In an office at Universal Pictures Headquarters, Michael Eisner put down the "variety" magazine with the first half of the firefly's financial report, and felt a little emotion.
Although the firefly group's net profit of all businesses is only more than 600 million, less than half of the total profit of fireflies and abc last year, but this has exceeded everyone's expectations, in general, in the process of merger of two large companies, because The turmoil caused by integration and restructuring is very common in the short-term performance of new companies. But the Firefly Group spent this turbulent period very smoothly, and Michael Eisner had to admit that if he sat in that position, he would have a hard time doing better.
After a heart-to-heart quadruple bypass surgery, in addition to the need to maintain vegetarianism, Michael Eisner's body is not much different from earlier. Moreover, with the excellent box office results of "Mummy", after the recovery of the body, Michael Eisner easily returned to his position in the global ceo, but now, another difficult problem he has to face, but in his surgery Previously, in order to appease the board, he personally pulled into the world as president of Michael Ovitz.
Thinking about how to push Michael Owitz, who has always tried to share his power, to the world, the office door rang a few times, Michael Eisner only came back, thinking that the next one needs more to deal with, Michael Eisner quickly got up.
A smiling, bald-headed fat man walked into the office under the guidance of the secretary. Michael Eisner showed a warm look and took the initiative to reach out to the other side: "Mr. Perelman, I am very happy to meet you."
"It's nice to meet you, Mr. Eisner."
When the secretary sent two coffees, Michael Eisner and Ron Perelman chatted a few words before they knew what they said: "I don't know what Mr. Perelman asked me about today?"
Ron Perelman took several copies of the copyright transfer contract from his briefcase and handed it to Michael Eisner. "Before saying this, I think Mr. Eisner can be the first."
Michael Eisner simply scanned the copies of several contracts and placed them aside. Dao: "So, Marvel wants to get help from the world and avoid being protected from bankruptcy, right?"
"Yes. I think we can cooperate," said Ron Perelman. "From these copyright transfer documents, fireflies can be used against Marvel. They don’t just want revenge. They must have been swearing for a long time. The development of the movie with Eric Williams also indirectly shows that the copyright of the superhero under Marvel is definitely more valuable than the imagination. As long as Universal can help Marvel get rid of this crisis, then we can become the most A solid partner, in the future, everyone can jointly develop these superhero projects under Marvel."
Michael Eisner whispered his mouth and asked, "So, Mr. Perelman, what do you need to do globally?"
Ron Perelman squatted, but quickly said: "I only need the global attitude of making a high price for the acquisition of Marvel. It is just a gesture. Global does not have to pay any price. As long as this kind of good news stops Marvel was forced into bankruptcy protection, so I had enough time to get inside Marvel."
The sneer of Michael Eisner almost overflowed: "Then, Marvel will have deep cooperation with the world, right?"
Ron Perelman replied very eagerly if he didn't want to: "Of course."
Michael Eisner finally did not hide his sneer, and said unceremoniously: "Mr. Perelman, I have a clear understanding of the difficulties encountered by Marvel. At the same time, I also have a clear understanding of your character. So, we don't have to play with these little things that have no substantive content. If you want to get help from around the world, yes, but I need real benefits."
Ron Perelman's face became a bit embarrassing, but he still said: "Mr. Eisner. In this case, how can Global help to help Marvel?"
"As long as Marvel transfers the copyright of the popular heroes and films that are still in the hands of the world to the world, I can promise to openly support Marvel."
"It's impossible..." Ron Perelman blurted out of consciousness, but then realized his own gaffe, and quickly converges his expression, saying: "Mr. Eisner. This condition is too much."
Marvel has lost the copyright of "Spider-Man", "Fantastic Four" and "The Hulk". With the attitude of the fireflies, Ron Perelman guessed that Marvel wanted to take back the three superhero copyrights. very difficult. If you transfer the remaining popular superhero copyrights to the world, Ron Perelman can't imagine the value of Marvel.
Although Marvel always publicly claims that he owns thousands of superheroes, in fact, this calculation method is to calculate all the characters appearing in the Marvel comic system, and the water is outrageous. In the Marvel comics, there are actually dozens of superhero characters that are truly familiar to the public, and there are no more than 10 superheroes who are equal to dc Batman Superman.
Although Ron Perelman realized the firefly's embarrassment to Marvel, he still felt that what Fireflies really wanted was a superhero with the same film and television adaptation potential as Marvel and Batman Superman, not the entire Marvel. .
Once Michael Eisner's request is met and the copyright of the superhero of the Marvel's Firefly is inadvertently transferred to Universal, he will completely lose the chip.
Michael Eisner's mind is actually the same as Ron Perelman, who also does not think that the entire Marvel is a treasure with great potential for adaptation.
So, from the beginning, Michael Eisner was not too big to participate in this drowning. Although he also wants to take advantage of this opportunity to win the rights of several popular heroes of Marvel, but the fireflies have shown such an aggressive attitude, Ron Perelman is shrewd like a fox, then the world wants It is almost impossible for a fisherman to gain profits.
What's more, at the moment, Global is negotiating with Nicole Kidman on the sequel to the "Mummy". If the incident is angered by the fireflies, Michael Eisner is worried that Eric will let Nicole Kee Deman exited the "Mummy" series. If you are up a lucrative project because of a goal that is still completely promising, then it is not worth the candle. (To be continued.)
