244 Chapter 244 Eyesight (1/2)

Legendary Pictures is a strategic partnership reached with Warner Pictures in 2005, and it is also Warner's first non-subsidiary in-depth partner.

However, that's all afterwards.

Now, Thomas Tour has just received funding from Wall Street, and he is ready to do something about his career.

And Cha Cha, some time ago, Europa Pictures revealed the wind that made him notice the Firefly Film Company.

Under normal circumstances, he would not pay attention to such a newly established small company. However, he has repeatedly frustrated when he comes into contact with a number of first-tier manufacturers such as Universal, Paramount, Disney, and Warner.

At this time, he realized that with his little capital, people simply look down on it.(Don’t ask why Warner doesn’t look down on it, because it’s really unnecessary. Why do you want to distribute profits to outsiders? Is it because the shareholders behind Warner are not doing their best, or are the people on Wall Street very powerful? Barry Meyer also went through After a long time of consideration, I finally accepted the legend, and it was a bit pitted.)

After understanding, Thomas Tour did not give up. While continuing to contact these manufacturers, he lowered his eyes and looked for film production companies in the middle and lower reaches.

For example, Lionsgate, Miramax, New Line Pictures, etc.

But most of the problems are the same. Foreign capital forces such as Lionsgate will definitely not talk about cooperation; while Miramax is a film company that focuses on low-cost production and focuses on its own advantages-Oscar-run profitable film companies. There is no need for any capital injection, they themselves are running well; as for the new line, the same is true for the company's prospects in the past two years, and there is no need to inhale capital to share the risk.

Choosing to go, Thomas Tour was worried.

What he likes, people look down on him, and what he looks down on is definitely not a show.

After all, he hadn't even considered a movie project with a budget of hundreds of thousands or millions.

Seeing those big guys who were unwilling to take him to play, his gaze fixed on another family-that was Firefly Pictures.

After some investigation, he became more and more determined.

First of all, the distribution channels are very secure-Europa Pictures has overseas channels, and it has also signed a three-year long-term cooperation plan. It is relatively easy to handle domestically, and it is not difficult to distribute on behalf of others. Secondly, the company is very good. Potential, the first project announced is a sharp weapon to harvest the box office market during this period, the sequel to ”Chain Saw”, and Lehman's past achievements are also very bluffing. He has never been rushed, and the profit is still very impressive. , The return ratio is rare in the industry.

Then there is a clear shareholding, or a newly established one. If you invest, you don’t need to worry too much. (Originally, when he was in contact with Global, he ran for more than a month, from the marketing department to the distribution department to the production department. I haven't seen a person who really has the right to decide, and the division of power within the company is really staggered.)

In summary, Thomas Tour thought this might be an opportunity.

After all, he hasn't been exposed to too many film productions, and he has no experience. Subconsciously, he likes to find those with achievements and market guarantees. Let alone how much money he makes, at least he can't let the investment go down, right.

I think that the preparation is almost complete, Thomas Tour said with a smile: ”I am here today to seek cooperation with you sincerely. A cooperation that can make us win-win.”

Lehman gave him a surprised look, but after another thought, it seemed that the same should be the case. In the circle, the bosses of two film companies who didn't know each other would talk about other than cooperation.

”Really, can you briefly talk about how a win-win cooperation is.” Lehmann listened in a respectful manner.

”I have idle funds on my hands, and you have projects on my hands, don't you want to develop first-line large-scale production?”

”...”

Lehman didn't speak, he glanced at Thomas Tour, then looked at the cigar box in his hand with interest, as if he was admiring the lines and packaging on it.

Of course Thomas Tourer knew that this was asking him to say the bargaining chip. He was also unambiguous and said: ”I can invest in your company's projects, either 500 million or 1 billion.”

”We Legendary Pictures have sufficient capital. Many private equity funds on Wall Street are our allies. We will have a large amount of liquidity to control. I can guarantee that as long as we cooperate, the world's film market will help us. Open it, even if you want to make a huge production like ”Titanic”, we can do it.”

”In addition, we can explain in advance, or even write it into the contract, that Legend Pictures will not unnecessarily interfere with your company's project shooting. We are willing to give you the greatest production autonomy.”

”In terms of distribution, you have the final say on who you will cooperate with.”

”We don't need to participate in film copyright, as long as the revenue is shared.”

”...”

After all, it's all nonsense.

Lehman didn't know the details of Legendary Pictures.

They have nothing except some capital.

What market, what cooperation, what not to interfere with the shooting, almost all nonsense.

I also took out things that I couldn't do.

You have channels, you have media resources, do you have the ability to produce.nothing.

Then talk about a hammer.

As for the giant auction system, are there no conditions for capital investment? After the investment, can it be mobilized at will?
