Rebirth of Hong Kong - 1978

Chapter 1954 Wall Street Businessmen
For Lin Daoqiu, Ron Perelman's identity as a financial tycoon is both a good thing and a bad thing for him.

The good thing is that Ron Perelman can't hold on to Marvel. Last year, his New World Films acquired Marvel, not intending to put Marvel's superhero series on the big screen. .

What they fancy are the copyrights of the superheroes in Marvel's hands, and these are the most valuable things.

As for the money for selling comics, it is definitely not in their most concerned range.

And with the capabilities of Ron Perelman and his company, it is impossible for them to make any decent special effects movies, so he bought Marvel just to extract the value of superheroes, and it is the best way for a person like this to talk to him about money. easy thing.

After all, he bought Marvel just to make money. If he can be paid generously, he can save a lot of time, unless Ron Perelman likes to spend his time on making money.

But the bad side is that once this guy who only recognizes money knows that he intends to acquire Marvel, he will definitely open his mouth and will never sell Marvel to himself easily.

If he is willing to sell Marvel to himself on the basis of doubling the original purchase price, Lin Daoqiu can accept the other party's request.

But what Lin Daoqiu is worried about now is that Ron Perelman may not only have to double the amount by then, he may increase it by three or five times.

"Now I'm going to meet this Mr. Perelman while I still have time."

Of course, Stan Lee hopes that Lin Daoqiu can get this matter settled as soon as possible, but he does not have any hope for this meeting between Lin Daoqiu and Ron Perelman.

Last year, Ron Perelman bought Marvel at a price of 500 million. According to Stan Lee, the other party intends to push Marvel to go public.

After financing, Ron Perelman intends to launch a series of animation-branded toy cards, themed restaurants, theme parks and other physical business development around Marvel.

Now it seems that Ron Perelman's idea can be said to be very forward-looking, but unfortunately his approach was not successful in the previous life.

In the seventh year of the acquisition of Marvel, that is, in 7, Marvel's stock price fell by 93%, and it once again fell into a crisis of bankruptcy.

After that, Ron Perelman sold the copyrights of various superheroes in order to save himself, and the price was very cheap.

Lin Daoqiu guessed that the current Ron Perelman must be full of ambitions and intends to develop Marvel into a super money printing machine, but unfortunately his idea was 20 years ahead of time.

The first time Lin Daoqiu and Ron Perelman met was in the Marvel headquarters building.

I was a little surprised by Lin Daoqiu's visit to Ron Perelman, because I had never had any communication with Lin Daoqiu before.

But for Ron Perelman, Lin Daoqiu's name is very famous. If he can cooperate with the other party to bring Marvel's superhero series to the big screen, then all his ideas can be realized.

So Ron Perelman seems very enthusiastic about Lin Daoqiu's visit.

"Welcome Mr. Lin, you are very welcome to visit my company."

As soon as Lin Daoqiu and his men got out of the elevator, Ron Perelman greeted him with his secretary and assistant.

"I'm so sorry to bother you while you're at work."

"Mr. Lin, don't say that. No matter what kind of visit you are, I will sincerely welcome you. Please come here."

Under the leadership of Ron Perelman, Lin Daoqiu came to his office.

For this Wall Street financial tycoon, when Lin Daoqiu met him for the first time, he seemed to be a very amiable person.

Ron Perelman, who was born in 44, was only in his early forties at this time, but he was already a very successful businessman.

If you really look at him as an ordinary person, then you must be the one who suffers.

No matter how you look at it, Ron Perelman is definitely not a good guy who can achieve something on Wall Street at such a young age.

Fortunately, Lin Daoqiu didn't plan to do anything to him, he just wanted to buy Marvel from Ron Perelman.

Before coming here, Lin Daoqiu had sent someone to collect some information about Ron Perelman and Marvel.

A year ago, New World Films, which is controlled by Ron Perelman, spent 500 million to buy Marvel, and now the value of Marvel has not changed much.

If Lin Daoqiu wants to buy Marvel from Ron Perelman, it is estimated that the other party will offer at least [-] to [-] million US dollars.

But the price that Lin Daoqiu can accept is around 5000 million, so how to convince the other party, this will probably be another tug of war.

The difference from buying MGM at the beginning is that the price of MGM is too high. Even if it is a low price, it will cost about [-] million US dollars to have a chance, and there are not many buyers who are willing to bid.

But for Marvel, it is because the value of IP has not been discovered by everyone, so this company that has developed for decades was bought by Ron Perelman for less than [-] million.

After Lin Daoqiu and Ron Perelman sat down respectively, they both looked at each other with smiles.

Ron Perelman was guessing what the purpose of Lin Daoqiu's visit today was, and Lin Daoqiu was wondering what Ron Perelman's reaction would be when he knew he was going to acquire Marvel.

After the two chatted for a while, Lin Daoqiu went straight to the point.

"Actually, I came today because I wanted to ask Mr. Perelman for a favor."

"Mr. Lin is too polite, just call me Ron."

Ron Perelman smiled and continued: "Although I don't know what Mr. Lin needs me to help with, but if there is something I can do, I will be happy to help you."

In terms of money, Ron Perelman is not as good as Lin Daoqiu at all. Although he doesn't know how much Lin Daoqiu has, he can be sure that it is definitely much more than himself.

"Last year, your New World Film Company bought Marvel at a price of 500 million. Now I want to buy Marvel from you."

Ron Perelman never expected that Lin Daoqiu came to find him today because of Marvel.

"Hehe... so that's the case. I didn't expect Mr. Lin to become interested in Marvel."

Ron Perelman found it very strange, if Lin Daoqiu was interested in Marvel, why didn't he make a move earlier?With his strength, if he had competed with him at that time, the chance of him being able to buy Marvel was zero.

Since Lin Daoqiu did not make a move last year, it means that his interest in Marvel has only recently arisen, so what made Lin Daoqiu interested in Marvel?This is something that Ron Perelman really wants to know.
