Chapter 6267: Acquisition of Marvel

While the whole world was still speculating about what Nuwa's mobile phone looked like, two shocking news broke out.

Suleiman's Hydra Company fully acquired the long-standing American Marvel Company for US$47.2 billion. At the same time, Lam Fung also acquired the complete ownership of the company from Warner Bros. at the same price.

This time, it shocked the outside world. What are these two doing? Why are you suddenly interested in acquiring an American comic company? This is a huge leap. Especially, this is not very profitable!

Of course, the U.S. comics market is huge, accounting for almost 30 billion U.S. dollars a year. This may seem very profitable, but this refers to the entire American animation industry, including comics, TV series, movies, peripheral equipment, etc., with a total market size of US$30 billion!

In fact, neither company is currently profitable. For example, Marvel, with Iron Man in 2008, sold a box office of 5.8 billion U.S. dollars, which brought huge profits. However, the investor Paramount Pictures made most of this money, while Marvel only received Just a little royalties. The copyright fee is only about 2, and the box office dividend is 10 at most.

Especially now that the global comics market is shrinking, it is a bit surprising and incomprehensible that these two people spent so much money to buy their copyrights. Can this make money?

Billions of dollars! How many years will it take you to make money back with a little bit of royalties and money from selling comics? This is so confusing. But soon, the outside world also knew why.

Suleiman announced that he will invest in the filming of Marvel's hero movies and bring all of his heroes to the big screen, allowing comic fans and movie fans around the world to experience a strong Marvel storm! In order to create such a visual feast, Suleiman will invest US$10 billion into Marvel to shoot superhero movies!

This news undoubtedly shocked the entire Wall Street. Suleiman is real estate, and it’s amazing enough that he had the brains to acquire Marvel. Of course, perhaps this can also be regarded as a channel for it to invest in the US market and transfer assets from the UK.

After all, Suleiman's investments in the UK over the years are neither success nor failure, rather mediocre, and he has never been able to break into the British upper class. It is normal for him to now move to the American market.

However, it is a bit confusing for you to suddenly invest 10 billion US dollars to shoot a Marvel movie! It's not that you can't make it. On the contrary, Iron Man has made a lot of money, but if Suleiman makes a movie, that's not normal! Well, why do you suddenly want to make a movie?

This is completely cross-border! And it’s so generous! Is he crazy? Do you really think that making movies will make money?

For example, the Hulk, which was also filmed last year,

With an investment of US$1.5 billion, the total box office was only US$2.6 billion. After deducting the theater dividends, it was basically a slight loss.

Of course, Spider-Man is indeed a big profit, with an investment of 1.3 billion and a box office of 8.2 billion. However, superheroes such as Humanoid or Elektra, which were also filmed at the same time, suffered huge losses, which can be said to be a real loss of money.

You, Suleiman, are going to shoot a movie. If you invest hundreds of millions of dollars in just one movie, you might lose all your money. Do you think this is safe?

As for Lin Feng, the outside world is more optimistic. When it comes to the movie market for Superman and Batman, they always do well at the box office. Together with Lin Feng and Ellison's Forest Cinemas, they own more than half of the movie screens in the United States, and they have an absolute advantage in this row. Therefore, as long as the quality of the film is not bad, I believe that no matter how much money you make, at least you will not lose money.

How come these two people suddenly announced their entry into the animation market at the same time? This is strange.

Of course, Lin Feng then announced that Lin Youxi would be the president of the newly established company, which completely shocked everyone.

A seven-year-old girl as president? This is too exaggerated. Moreover, Lin Feng actually invested 10 billion US dollars to toss Lin Youxi. This is too willful!

Even if you have money, you shouldn’t bother like this!

The entire American comics industry is confused. Well, no matter how talented Lin Youxi is, he is still only seven years old! In this adult world, what does a seven-year-old girl know?

Of course, maybe this is just a reality show game planned by Lin Feng to train Lin Youxi. There is nothing in this world that can train people better than in the real workplace. Just like this, wouldn't it mean that Lin Youxi's childhood would be sacrificed?

Moreover, does she still have time to study?

In other words, all this is just Lin Feng's gimmick. The one who really controls everything is still Lin Feng.

Of course, various speculations from the outside world soon returned to Nuwa.

After all, whether it is Marvel or after being acquired, it will always go through a period of adjustment before starting to shoot new movies. Now, what everyone is interested in is the mobile phone that this rumor will once again change the mobile phone industry. This is the closest to everyone and the most down-to-earth.

It's a pity that no matter how curious everyone is, no news can come out due to absolute military management. Everyone who enters the company is monitored throughout the process. No bit of news can be conveyed.

Everyone, we can only wait for the day of June 1st!

Yes, Nuwa will officially do blind shopping and delivery on June 1st.

And now, the number of blind purchases has exceeded 10 million! Yes, a mobile phone that knows nothing about it, now the pre-sale amount has exceeded 10 million, and the price of each is 688 US dollars!

10 million units, that is 68.8 billion US dollars! Lin Feng received 68.8 billion US dollars just in advance payment! And this money will be kept for at least one month.

How much is the interest? This calculation is terrifying. And not only that, this number is still rising.

At present, the most entangled thing for everyone is the color! Any mobile phone has different colors. White and black are the most common. But this blind purchase, but not even the color is distinguished. In other words, you have no idea what color the mobile phone you bought is! What if you like white, but it comes in black?

Or other colors, what should I do? This is also the current entanglement of all walks of life. It is also the most popular among all walks of life. At least, let people know what colors are available!

Unfortunately, Lin Feng still chose to keep it secret! Absolutely confidential! Do not disclose any information to the outside world. If it weren't for this, conservatively estimated, the pre-sale amount would have increased exponentially.

Unfortunately, Lin Feng is so willful!

"Boss, those reporters have been arranged!" Zheng Zha reported.

"How is it, are they all still honest?" Lin Feng asked with a smile.

"Boss, in the first two days, many people resisted and wanted to leave. But now I'm afraid they don't want to leave even if I drive them away!" Zheng Zha admired Lin Feng to the extreme this time. He actually had this way to deal with these reporters.

You know, if these reporters accuse Lin Feng of kidnapping and illegal detention, it would be useless to hire any lawyer. Nearly a thousand people, this witness is too powerful! Lin Feng's team of lawyers can't do anything.

But Lin Feng actually used this method. It's really amazing!

"Haha, people, just one point, give them what they like! So, if I dare to catch them, I have the confidence to deal with them and prevent them from accusing me." Lin Feng said with a smile.

Zheng Zha nodded deeply and admired Lin Feng deeply.

"Boss, don't forget four words: people are evil. What if some reporters blackmail you?" Natalie Portman reminded.

She also listened to some of Lin Feng's methods of dealing with these reporters, and she admired it deeply. But people are evil, what if someone insists on blackmailing you? What should we do? And the most important thing is that once one person succeeds in blackmailing, others will follow suit. In this case, Lin Feng will have a time bomb on his back!

"Don't worry about it. If they accept my favor and want to accuse me, then sue me. But I promise that he will not live to see the day of the court!" Lin Feng said unruly, "I said that I, Lin Feng, have never been a saint, let alone a good man and woman!"

Natalie Portman didn't say anything. This involves violating the law, and she doesn't want to get involved. Although, as Lin Feng's secretary, she has been involved for a long time, unless she reports Lin Feng now, otherwise, she will inevitably be implicated. But reporting Lin Feng? Natalie Portman has never thought about it.

She admired Lin Feng very much. This guy was neither good nor evil, but both good and evil, which was really fascinating. Although he had so many wives, he was still fatal to women.

"By the way, how is the connection in Somalia? How is the satellite communication? If possible, let Nuwa take over completely!" Lin Feng ordered.

Although many people once opposed Nuwa taking over all resources, Lin Feng now decided to promote it in Somalia. Of course, not everything was decided by Nuwa, but Nuwa gave Wu Zhaopu the most appropriate advice based on all the current resources in Somalia and the global information collected. As for how to choose, it was still up to Wu Zhaopu to decide.

Nuwa only provided the right to make suggestions. As for whether to adopt or not, it was up to Wu Zhaopu, the prime minister!

Perfect staff, this was Lin Feng's current definition of Nuwa!

After all, compared with the human brain, Nuwa's ability to analyze intelligence instantly was too powerful, much more powerful!

"Boss" Zheng Zha suddenly shouted.

"What's the matter?" Lin Feng asked.

"Nothing, I was distracted!" Zheng Zha shook his head, and the thought flashed through his mind.

Something did happen in Somalia. However, he decided not to tell Lin Feng about this for the time being. After all, it would cause many changes. They Langya will handle it on their own first!

"Well, let's go, it's time to go to the UK to prepare for the awarding of the title of prince!" Lin Feng said with a smile.

To be continued.
