The focus of media from all borders is on "Roman Holiday". Whether the box office of this movie can eventually exceed 4.5 billion US dollars is basically determined by the quality of the movie itself.

Li Changheng is not worried about the quality of the movie, because judging from the feedback from the audience interviewed in the past few days, the audience satisfaction is still very high.

Moreover, in terms of box office, the US box office was 7.2 million in three days, and the box office exceeded 10 million on Sunday from 8.5 million to 10.8 million.

All of this shows that many Americans are colleagues and friends who have been watched in movies.

Overseas box office has also been reported by more people as media from various countries continue to tie up the news of when the 600 million US dollars will be returned to Aoki Group to report, and it is also showing an upward trend.

Li Changheng, who had been worried for a few days, felt relieved.

The box office was far beyond expectations and began to make efforts, which undoubtedly caused the market value of Lianmei Film to soar.

When Randall Hurst's Media Group acquired a stake, Lianmei's market value was only US$200 million. Although it has been rising in recent years, it has suddenly soared from 500 million to 800 million, which is indeed beyond many people's expectations.

But when you think about it carefully, it feels normal.

In addition to the high probability of the box office of "Roman Holiday" will be a big hit, United States itself has stable returns that have made various media groups and Wall Street coveted.

In recent years, because Li Changheng has given several scripts, Lianmei has a movie that has a box office of over 100 million yuan every year and has an annual profit of tens of millions of US dollars. In the eyes of capital, it is worth investing and holding for a long time.

Although other low-cost comedies and horror movies make money and lose money, small costs means less pressure to recover costs.

Even if several movies lose money, the cost can always be recovered by selling copies to South Asia and Europe.

The only troublesome thing is that the recovery time for this part of the cost may be two or three years.

But as long as the cost recovery period is extended, except for the financial reports of the first one or two years that there are films in the loss state, the subsequent financial reports basically show that no movie in the company actually suffers losses.

Comparing the profitability of other Hollywood movie giants, Lianmei was instantly favored by investors, and its market value was rising year by year.

When the global box office of Rome holidays is likely to exceed at least 300 million, or even 450 million US dollars.

Lianmei was evaluated by Wall Street at 800 million, and after the box office really exceeds 150 million, the shooting cost of 50 million US dollars may increase again.

Become the first Hollywood giant with a market value of more than $1 billion.

As a result, some people within the media group could not sit still.

Although the media industry has a great external influence, it can even affect all aspects of society and the election.

However, the pure profit of this industry is actually not high. After deducting all labor and operating costs, it is considered a unique amount of net profit of 100 million US dollars per year.

And Lianmei can earn 780 million in a movie, and even make a profit of 100 million or 200 million US dollars based on its subsequent peripherals. How can we not make media groups envious and covet?

In addition, Media Group, which only controls 20% of Lianmei's shares, rose 4% and 6% in the stock market for two consecutive days, instantly causing the group's 6 billion market value to soar to 6.6 billion.

This made Randall Hurst and other shareholders unable to sit still.

If the profits of "Roman Holiday" are all owned by the Media Group and holders of Lianmei, the company's market value will increase again, and it will definitely not be difficult to make more than ten dollars on the face value, and two billion yuan will be the case.

If Li Changheng can be completely limited to the United States and Media Group, and one or two films will continue to be sold for more than 230 million yuan, or even one film will have a box office of over 100 million yuan every year, and a profit of tens of millions.

If the movie is like "Rome", the market value of the media group exceeds 10 billion yuan, it is not impossible.

So Rendall and his shareholders were impatient to exchange for more shares of Lianmei with Li Changheng.

Moreover, both Wall Street and Media Group actually hope to obtain downstream channels such as a film and television production company.

But it is obvious that no one wants a company that has a bad profit.

Wall Street is aiming to hype, attract more investors to participate, and then cut leeks, so it is the most difficult for Wall Street to invade Hollywood.

Media Group is for more content.

The better the box office of your own movies, the more attractive it is to celebrities, directors and other practitioners.

The better the sales volume of newspapers and magazines, the indirectly the stock price of the Media Group.

But the problem is that the better the profit of a Hollywood giant, the less he wants to be controlled after he has money.

Instead, it will prompt this film company to develop horizontally to grab the resources of the media group and even develop itself into a new media giant.

The most successful example is DiSini.

Therefore, shareholders such as Randolhurst exchanged shares with Li Changheng so easily a few years ago.

In addition to not requiring cash, the stock exchange can also take advantage of the 6.6 billion US dollars of Media Group's market value, which is only one-sixth or even one-8th of the crushing shares, and it is possible to obtain 31% of Lianmei's shares and achieve complete control of the company.

Leave 49% to Li Changheng, and when signing the contract, there will inevitably be certain restrictions on him, thus binding Li Changheng, the soul of Media Group and Lianmei Film.

Unfortunately, Li Changheng could not see the calculations of Randall Hurst and others.

It is OK to exchange stocks, but you may not change them all, or you may introduce other media companies yourself.

Based on the 1 billion US dollars, Li Changheng's 80% stake can be exchanged for about 11 to 13% of the shares of the Media Group.

With the 7.5% I received before, Li Changheng's shares instantly reached more than 20%.

If you work hard, you may be able to hold four board seats with voting rights on the board of directors.

But if he only exchanges 31% and obtains about 4% to 5% of new shares, then holding 11% and 12% of shares is not much different from holding 7.5% of shares.

It is better to bloom in full and acquire shares in other media groups.

By then, each of Li Changheng will hold more than 5% of the shares and each of them will receive a board seat. At least the media across the United States will basically not be able to report any negative news related to him.

Even just starting from one's own interests, Li Changheng felt that the latter choice was actually more beneficial to him.

The only problem is that in terms of print media, Hurst is already the largest company of this era, and other print media will either be merged or gone bankrupt in the future.

From an investment perspective, using Lianmei and other media groups to exchange shares is not a good business.

But this does not prevent Li Changheng from using this method as a bargaining chip for negotiations with Hurst.
