The agreement for the science and technology park has been signed, and Zhu Ke immediately arranged for the think tank to formulate a series of follow-up construction plans.

In the future, the technology park will be dominated by LinkedIn, recruiting companies such as information engineering, Internet hardware construction, emerging mobile phones, chips, bridge laying, streaming media websites, etc., absorbing the nutrition of these companies can make Zhuke become stronger in the Internet field.

"The Science and Technology Park is focused on the future!"

In the fields of Internet and high-tech, Zucker made huge investments, but Zucker never underestimated it in film and television entertainment.

Jinshuguang Entertainment Group is an emerging but powerful media and entertainment group. Even if you look across the United States, the name of Jinshuguang Entertainment Group is becoming more and more famous around the world.

but!

If Jin Shuguang Entertainment Group is compared with the six Hollywood majors, then the overall strength of Jin Shuguang Entertainment Group is indeed much different.

TV, movies, radio, newspapers, music......

In all the above fields, Jin Shuguang Entertainment Group has achieved outstanding achievements, which can bring large returns to Zhuke every year. The profit is enough to make many people jealous, but... these achievements are largely based on Zhuke's future.

If Zucker does not cheat, then the annual profit of Jin Shuguang Entertainment Group will be reduced by at least half or even more.

"The foundation is unstable!"

"And, the gap in size also restricts the development speed of Jinshuguang Entertainment Group."

Zhu Ke often devotes himself to this.

Is there a quick and effective solution?

Of course there is!

"Acquiring one of the six major Hollywood products will definitely have an immediate effect."

"All problems will be solved!"

However, how easy is it to acquire one of the top six Hollywoods?

It's very difficult to deal with!

Disney, Warner, Paramount, Columbus, and 20th Century Fox, the parent company behind these five giants is extremely powerful, and even for Zhuke today, he is willing but not capable.

In addition to owning Paramount Pictures, Viacom Group of Redstone also owns the largest offline rental and distribution presence of DVDs and videotapes in the United States, covering tens of thousands of Blockbuster stores across the United States, which must be supported by film and television companies.

Blockbuster's market value of tens of billions of dollars is based on Paramount as one of the six major Hollywood stars, and it can provide Redstone with huge cash flow every year.

You said, how could Redstone give up Paramount?

How could Murdoch, Sony, Time Warner and others give up their own film and television entertainment industry?

Not easy to mess with!

"So, for now, the only one that can be acquired among the six major groups is the only one Global Group."

But even for Global Group, which has shown signs of fatigue in recent years, it is not easy to acquire it.

Universal Group, which is under its jurisdiction of Universal Pictures, Universal Studios, Universal Records, Universal Family Entertainment...

The number of subsidiaries is extremely amazing.

At the same time, Global Group has a close relationship with NBC TV, one of the four major public television networks in the United States. Both parties have cross-holding shares, so they almost have to wear a pair of pants. The merger and acquisition between the two parties is a natural thing.

Therefore, it is definitely a very difficult thing for Zhuke to acquire Global Group.

"Oh~"

Zhuke sighed: "It's the wrong time! Universal Records under Universal Group is one of the five largest record companies in the world. It is also known as the world's world, along with EMI, Polygon, Warner Records, and Rolling Stone. Its value is currently no less than US$6 billion."

"I'm not having enough money when I say a thousand words, otherwise I'll just push you directly!

So, Zucker temporarily stopped his idea of ​​acquiring the six major Hollywood games.

"I can't acquire the six major Hollywood companies, but it doesn't mean I can't acquire other film and television companies!"

DreamWorks Film and Television Entertainment Group, there is no idea to sell it for the time being;

New Line Film, behind it is Time Warner Group;

Searchlight Entertainment, behind it is the 20th Century Fox;

behind Yijiang Entertainment is MGM Pictures;

Miramax Pictures, behind it is Disney Group;

.........

Among the few top Hollywood second-tier companies, all behind them are the six major Hollywood giants, either absolute controlling shares or the largest shareholder.

The only few second-tier companies that have not been incorporated by Hollywood's six major companies, such as Lionsgate Pictures and Tingfeng Entertainment, are all ambitious and are definitely unwilling to be inferior to others.

Lionsgate Pictures is known as Hollywood's largest independent studio in the future, second only to Hollywood's six majors. Even now, Gusta, the owner of Lionsgate Pictures, is definitely a person with ambitions and will not sell the company.

Tingfeng Entertainment is not much worse in the future.

"Bomb Disposal Force", "Twilight", "Dance of My Life", "Shocking Demons", "Difference", "Red Flame Battlefield", "Source Code", "Divine War: Eye of Power"...

These familiar movies are works produced by Dingfeng Entertainment Company.

Even in 2000, it was still a younger brother. However, with many talents and ambitions in management, they will surely have a place in Hollywood in the future.

"Perhaps, Pinfeng Entertainment can be acquired!"

“Because it’s almost out of money!”

The three giants of Peak Entertainment, Patrick Wattsberg, Bob Hayward and David Garrit, invested heavily before the Internet bubble, and also mortgaged the company's shares and borrowed a lot of money from the bank.

The stock market crash broke out and was destroyed in one go.

Except for David Garrit's timely sale, the other two people suffered heavy losses in this stock market crash.

"You guys have no money, but I have money~"

There is no doubt that Zucker has set his sights on Pinnacle Entertainment, which is in a financial dilemma.

"In addition to Tingfeng Entertainment, there are quite a few film and television companies in Hollywood's third- and fourth-tier cities. In total, the number is definitely no less than 500 companies, and there are also many potentials among them that can be acquired."

Therefore, in order to expand the scale of Jin Shuguang Entertainment Group, Zhu Ke brazenly embarked on the road of mergers and acquisitions.

Mergers and acquisitions in the form of cash in shares?

no!

Zhuke is not short of money now!

If you want to have shares of Jin Shuguang Entertainment Group, Zhu Ke will never give them it, so he will just use cash to smash it!

If you don’t agree with 10 million, then 15 million!

In one sentence, I will use money to fool you!

As expected...

In just over a dozen days, Zhuke acquired two third-tier film companies and five fourth-tier film companies, and recruited more than 500 new employees, spending a total of US$140 million.

At this moment, the people who are most excited are Bill McNick and Kevin Feige.

Old Bill: "As long as the integration can be completed as soon as possible, our overall production capabilities of Wald Pictures will definitely reach a higher level."

Kevin Feige: "We are often trapped in the ability to only produce 2 or 3 movies at the same time, but not to produce more movies at the same time. Now the problem is solved."

The acquisition of these film companies greatly enhanced Zhuke's strength.

However...it will take some time to complete the integration.

Just when Zucker was happy, bad news came from Tingfeng Entertainment, and they rejected Zucker's acquisition.

Of course, Zucker is not in a hurry.

However, other small and medium-sized film companies in Hollywood were scared!
Chapter completed!
