MTL - After Buying Marvel, I Became the King of Hollywood-Chapter 136
"well done!"
Kevin praised.
Kevin's praise made Kevin Feige feel a lot better.
As the president, to achieve this result, to be honest, if you were a normal company, you would have been fired long ago.
That is, Marvel is now solely owned by Kevin, and this is tolerated.
Of course, Kevin himself is also responsible for the current situation.
It was his strategy, not for profit at all, but to make IP more deeply rooted in the hearts of the people.
"Brother Kevin, when will the crew start preparing?"
Kevin Feige asked directly.
He can't wait to wait for the movie to be released, which will lead to the sales of the comics.
"In a few months."
"The specifics are still uncertain."
Kevin Feige nodded.
He waited for several months.
"The next thing, continue to trouble you, Mr. Stan Lee."
Kevin simply arranged the work and left Marvel.
At present, Chenxi Film Company and Marvel are operating normally.
The funds on hand are also very abundant. After calculation, hundreds of millions of dollars in cash flow are lying in the account.
I don't know how many banks came to please Dawson.
Kevin also felt that the money was too hot and it was time to buy MGM.
As it happens, Rush Hour is still renting MGM's studio, and Kevin is going to see how Rush Hour is done.
Counting the time, it's almost the end.
As a film that relies on stunt moves, it doesn't require much post-processing.
After the shooting is completed, the editing, the subtitles and the soundtrack in the later stage are processed, and that’s it.
・・・
"Jack Chen, take a break."
Mitt looked at Jackie Chan, who was desperate, and was a little scared. He was trying too hard and didn't take his life.
During the filming, I was injured many times, and the most dangerous one was that I almost lost my life.
To be honest, the filming has not stopped until now. He felt that the crew was blessed by the goddess of luck.
Seeing that there are only a few days before the end of the filming, Mitt really hopes that there will be no accidents at this time.
"Then take a rest."
Feeling the pain in his body, Jackie Chan decided to listen and take a rest.
We've all reached this juncture, I'm really tired, and I've lost a lot.
Jim Carrey came over to support Jackie Chan and rested aside.
In these days of getting along, Jim Carrey and Jackie Chan have become good friends.
Jackie Chan's attitude towards making movies shocked him.
Jim Carrey has never seen such a lifeless man.
As soon as Kevin came in, he walked directly towards where Jackie Chan was.
"No big accident happened, right?"
Judging from Jackie Chan's appearance, small accidents must have occurred frequently, so Kevin asked directly.
"It's okay, the movie is almost finished."
Seeing Kevin's appearance, Jackie Chan burst into laughter.
"Kevin!"
Jim Carrey, Mitt, and Zach all came over.
I haven't seen Kevin for a few months, and it's very cordial to meet again.
"Are you all getting together tonight?"
Mitt was the first to propose.
Kevin shook his head.
"Let's wait until the movie is over. I'm coming to MGM today for something to come and see everyone by the way."
"It's great to be able to finish the film without any risk."
"To be honest, every movie Jackie Chan makes, I think it may be his last movie."
As soon as these words came out, the others nodded in agreement.
Kevin waved his hand again.
"Okay, don't delay your shooting, I'm going to MGM."
"By the way, when the movie is over, edit some of the highlights and make a promotional video for me."
"it is good."
Mitt agreed immediately.
Kevin nodded and turned to leave.
・・・
Inside MGM.
Leiter was in the office, looking at the box office of The Matrix, even more jealous.
"Damn Davis, got a big bargain."
"These should all belong to MGM."
Reit vented his dissatisfaction.
"President, Director Kevin is here."
"Please come in."
As soon as the secretary reported it, Leiter jumped up immediately and said anxiously.
While speaking, he also began to tidy up his appearance.
Kevin is the one who does everything, and he knows that.
Kevin ran over, there must be something looking for him, is it the acquisition of MGM?
Or, Kevin's new movie, ready to work with MGM?
No matter what operation it was, it was something that Leiter wanted to see.
Suppressing the excitement in his heart, he stood up from the boss chair, and Leiter waited for Kevin to arrive.
"President Reiter."
Kevin opened the door and saw Leiter's attentive smile.
Immediately everyone felt uncomfortable.
"Boss Kevin."
Leiter directly upgraded Kevin's title and became the boss.
"Come here today, yes..."
"Negotiate the acquisition of the remaining shares of MGM."
Kevin didn't wait for him to guess, and directly stated his purpose.
Rett is overjoyed.
Chapter 203 Going to Las Vegas
It's so sad without Kevin.
MGM has invested in other movies besides Pirates of the Caribbean, but perhaps MGM has been out of touch with the times.
The films they chose, one by one, did not have one in the market, whether it was word of mouth or box office.
The whole is in a state of loss.
This reminds the executives of the days of cooperation with Steve Kevin, and more eagerly hopes that Steve Kevin will take control of MGM early.
Combined with Steve Kevin's acquisition of shares from Time Warner, Kevin actually owns about 20% of MGM's shares.
Except for the boss behind the scenes, everyone else is a small shareholder distributed in the stock market.
As long as Kevin acquires the remaining shares of the casino tycoon, and then buys back a little share in the market to obtain a total of 51% of the shares, he can completely gain control of MGM.
"Then, I'm going to communicate with the boss?"
Kirk Kerkorian, the majority shareholder of MGM, is the real boss with control.
But for the operation of MGM, it is difficult for these executives to have no opinion on him during these years.
Can change to be an insider, or the famous Steve Kevin to be the boss, these people want to see this scene.
That includes Reiter.
As soon as he heard that Kevin wanted to take over MGM, Leiter immediately asked Ying, ready to discuss with the big boss about selling shares.
"Well, you go."
Kevin took a deep breath and asked Leiter to communicate.
For the attitude of the casino tycoon, Kevin can't guess now.
With Kevin as a shareholder, although Kevin does not strongly support MGM, the stock price of MGM in the market is still stable.
It would still cost hundreds of millions of dollars to take the remaining shares in Kirk Kerkorian's hands and buy back some of the market's shares.
The biggest problem is that Kirk Kercorion won't necessarily sell.
After all, with Kevin in charge, the stock won't go anywhere.
Leiter maintained a calm expression and said:
"Then boss Kevin, just take a break in my office and I'll contact you now."
After all, Reiter hurriedly left the office to contact Kirk Kercorion, the real big boss, who couldn't wait for Kevin to take over MGM.
Kevin lay on the sofa in the office, thinking about the new movie.
Spider-Man has to wait for Tobey Maguire to start filming anytime soon.
As for the replacement, to be honest, in order for the first movie in the Marvel universe to be a solid success, Kevin would rather wait a few more months than take a risk.
There's a few months in between, and Kevin doesn't want to waste it.
Before making Spider-Man, Kevin wanted to make another movie.
However, he doesn't have any good ideas for the subject.
Just like writing an essay, he needs a propositional person to delineate a theme for him, and this is the best way to play.
・・・
On the other hand, Reiter called Kirk Kerkorian.
After a while, the phone was connected, and a female voice rang.
"This is the MGM Grand Las Vegas. I'm Kirk Kercorion's secretary. What's the matter?"
"I'm MGM President Leiter. I have something to ask for the boss."
