Chapter 531 Spending 5 Billion Yuan To Package Over 10,000 Movie Rights
"Aren't you going to North America this month to have final negotiations with several major film companies? I'll leave this matter to you to negotiate with Marvel.
"Our bottom line is a maximum of 3.2 billion meters of gold. If it exceeds this price, there is no need to purchase it."
Lu Yi said.
Although the Marvel Universe movie series is very profitable, there is also a cost-effectiveness issue.
If Marvel wants to kill them as big fat sheep, forget it and leave it to Disney.
More than 3.2 billion meters of gold, just give up.
If the price exceeds this price, instead of being ripped off, it is better to directly repurchase the shares of Future Group.
Lu Yi believes that in ten years’ time, the income from the company’s stock price appreciation will definitely be much higher than the income from the Marvel Universe movie series!
Again.
Lu Yi can't guarantee that if he acquires Marvel in this life, the Marvel Universe movies he develops will be as popular around the world as they were in his previous life.
If it cannot be as successful as in its previous life, then this acquisition will definitely become a bad debt.
"no problem."
Lu Qi nodded.
Two days passed.
Lu Qi led the people and elected them directly.
The most important task of his mission to North America this time is to complete contracts with the six major Hollywood film companies to make up for a major shortcoming in the online video business.
06The negotiation went very smoothly.
Because after the past two years, we have basically reached an agreement on many issues.
This time, it's just a final test.
August 5th.
Future Group has reached a final agreement with The Walt Disney Company, one of the six major Hollywood studios.
Future Group obtained the digital rights of 1,480 15-year-old movies owned by Disney including "Train" for a price of 250 million gold, which is equivalent to a 15-year rental price of 168,900 gold for a movie.
At the same time, it acquired the digital rights of 800 new Disney films including "Cars" at a price of 660 million yuan, which is equivalent to the rental price of one movie as high as 825,000 yuan.
Of course.
If it is a movie that has just been released, especially a movie that is a hit at the box office, the rental amount of a movie may be as high as millions of dollars, which cannot be so cheap.
The next week.
Lu Qidu is busy negotiating and signing contracts with other film companies.
720 million in gold, and won the digital rights of 2,000 movies from Lionsgate Pictures for a period of 15 years.
1.2 billion in gold, and won the digital rights of more than 2,620 movies from Paramount Pictures for a period of 15 years.
1.03 billion meters of gold, won Soni Pictures
And during this period.
Future Group has undoubtedly become Bei's cub once again.
no way.
Spending a lot of money is really different compared to other companies that went bankrupt because they had no money.
At the signing ceremony, Lu Qi also told the media at the scene.
In order to achieve the goal of bringing more videos that users like, a new plan will be announced: adding tens of thousands of movies from major Hollywood studios to VideoSpace.com/movies for everyone to rent.
Using various value-added services of VideoSpace movies allows movie fans to pay more attention to their favorite films, including cast interviews, trailers, other endings and other high-quality services provided by VideoSpace partners.
At the same time, the group is still in contact and negotiation with some other film companies to strive to reach cooperation agreements to bring users a better viewing experience.
In this short period of one week.
Future Group directly invested nearly 5 billion yuan in North America and acquired the digital copyright of more than 10,000 movies, which greatly enriched VideoSpace's film library.
It even grabbed the headlines of the Zhongdu Olympics several times because of this.
In the current bleak economic environment, Future Group spent 5 billion meters without blinking an eye, making other companies the envy of them.
There is also a heated discussion online.
Both overseas VideoSpace users and domestic VideoSpace users are looking forward to the arrival of these more than 10,000 movies.
VideoSpace even directly typed [If you want to find videos, please search on the VideoSpace video website. If not, then the world does not have the video you are looking for] slogan.
This move comes out.
It has had a huge impact on domestic and foreign video websites.
no way.
Playing online streaming videos is impossible without gold.
If you don't rely on a big group, you want to play bigger but you can't afford to spend more money. Otherwise, you can only play in a small way.
After obtaining the digital copyright of these tens of thousands of movies, users of both VideoSpace and VideoSpace will be able to watch the full versions of these movies normally.
But.
To watch on the international version of VideoSpace, users can rent movies at prices ranging from 1.99 (old movies) to 3.99 (new movies), and users can watch them within 30 days after renting.
but.
Once you start watching, you must finish it within 24 hours.
Users can embed rental videos on other websites.
However, if other users have not rented the video before opening it, the video will only play the trailer of the film and the introduction information on how to rent the full film through VideoSpace.
As for the domestic version of the video space, users can watch it for free.
no way.
At the current stage, it is more difficult than ever to get domestic consumers to pay to watch movies.
Although it is somewhat unfair to foreign users, there is nothing we can do about it.
but.
For overseas users, VideoSpace has also introduced some compensation measures.
for example:
For these more than 10,000 movies, VideoSpace has launched a floating free model.
That is: some movies will be regularly selected from the video library every day and can be watched for free on that day, and different movies will be rotated every day. And a preview of the free screenings will be carried out one week in advance, providing users with a guide to future viewing and understanding of which free movies they can watch in the coming week.
Also, add movie ticket function.
Users can obtain movie tickets through a series of tasks.
For example, daily check-in, continuous check-in, number or duration of videos watched, etc., a point value can be calculated.
After reaching a certain number of points, you can use the points to redeem movie-viewing coupons, and use the movie-viewing coupons to redeem the movies the user wants to watch for free.
certainly.
Lu Yi never thought that he could recoup the cost of 5 billion yuan by renting movies to consumers, because it is simply impossible!
He has only one purpose in doing this, which is to recharge inventory and improve user experience.
It doesn’t matter whether users watch it, consume it or not.
The key point is that when searching for a movie name on VideoSpace, the website must have 183 that can provide services to users. This is very important.
Good user experience and rich content resources are the basis for building VideoSpace into the world's largest online video website!
Marvel Corporation, Avi Arad's office.
The assistant came in and said: "Boss, Mr. Lu Qi, the global executive vice president of Future Group, came to visit our company and hopes to meet you as soon as possible. He has no appointment.
"watt?"
When Kevi Arad heard the assistant's report, his mind was filled with questions.
He is naturally known for his work in the Future Group.
Lu Qi also knew what kind of big shot he was.
Don’t say anything else.
During this period alone, Lu Qi frequently appeared in major media in North America, signing a cooperation agreement with Hollywood's Max Pictures on behalf of Future Group, spending 5 billion yuan, and packaged the digital rights of more than 10,000 movies.
The news was making a fuss throughout North America. How could he not know about it since he was in this circle.
and.
He is very envious of the major Hollywood film companies because they easily received hundreds of millions or even more than one billion in royalties from Future Group.
What is paid is nothing more than 19 years of digital rental copyright for thousands of new and old movies.
It’s a huge profit!
"quick!"
"Invite them to the VIP reception room, I'll be there right away."
Avi Arad said quickly.
Although Lu Qi did not make an appointment, his status as COO of the Future Group was enough for him to put down what he was doing and go to meet him.
and.
He wanted to know the reason for Lu Qi's visit.
Marvel doesn't have any movie resources at hand. .
