764 MGM's new boss

The MGM matter was resolved within a week, and this old Hollywood film company officially fell into Lin Chu's hands.

For Lin Chu, he paid US$3 billion to acquire all the remaining equity, but he felt it was worth it.

MGM has a long history in the United States and has many copyrights, such as "Tom and Jerry", "007 Series", "Gone with the Wind" and so on.

It also includes many brands, including part of the equity of Comcast Cable Network, which is also the main television network in the United States and the largest cable television network.

There are also MGM Park, MGM Hotel, MGM Golden Palace, Mandalay Resort, Dream Resort, The Sword in the Stone Hotel, etc.

He even owns a coffee shop, which can be said to be rich in assets. Lin Chu feels that it is not a loss.

He merged Marvel Entertainment into MGM and became an independently operated subsidiary. This incident immediately caused a huge storm in the United States.

"Time" magazine also conducted an exclusive interview. Lin Chu stood in the office of the MGM Building with a smile on his face and a youthful and tough look.

Beside him stood Maggie Zhang and Blake. They also smiled brightly, but they became his foils.

"With the advent of every era, we need a real hero. Lin from Xiangjiang and his entertainment empire will affect each of us."

Such headlines swept the world, causing a huge storm even in China.

To be able to acquire MGM, it must be a top giant.

Lin Chu was interviewed by a beautiful reporter from Time magazine.

"Lin, MGM has been on the verge of bankruptcy. How do you plan to save this roaring lion?"

"I will lay off some less important people, and then carry out some industry optimization. The most important thing is that I will introduce all movies to China.

Another point is that with five new movies a year, I believe that MGM will be profitable next year. For me, re-arrangement is crucial."

Lin Chu said softly, very confident, and also announced the names of five movies, which showed his strong confidence.

"Contagion", "007", "The Hobbit", "Pi" and "Brave".

At the same time, he also announced the next four movies to be produced by Marvel Entertainment: "Captain America", "Iron Man 2", "Thor", and "Avengers".

Lin Chu plans to put MGM's movies on Youbo Video Network, which is truly exclusive, and it is also a huge profit.

Reporter: "Lin, it looks like they are all big productions."

"There is always a correlation between production costs and return on investment. I will personally shoot two of the films. I believe this will bring new development opportunities to MGM."

Lin Chu responded, and the reporter asked again: "I know Maggie is managing Gemini Pictures, will she take over MGM now?"

"No, she is still in charge of Twin Pictures. I will personally take care of MGM. Usually, Blake will help me take care of it." Lin Chu shrugged.

The reporter laughed, with dark eyes: "Lin, I heard that you are a polygamist and have many wives, so is Black the same?"

"Of course." Lin Chu responded.

The reporter praised: "Lin, you must be in good health!"

"I never doubted it." Lin Chu raised his eyebrows and the scene froze.

After the acquisition by MGM, a banquet was held, and people from all the Hollywood studios were present. This was also recorded in the annals of Hollywood events.

Accompanying Lin Chu to the banquet were Maggie Cheung, Blake, Ni Ni and Nana Lin. The scene was quite big, and the MGM Hotel was full.

Among the crowd, Lin Chu walked to the bathroom. He had just gotten rid of a group of big guys in the film industry. This kind of socializing was a bit tiring.

After pouring water and washing his face, Lin Chu breathed a sigh of relief. When he was about to take out a paper to wipe his face, someone from the side handed him a piece of paper.

Lin Chu turned around and took a look. Scarlett was standing on one side, wearing a long black dress.

"Lin, is there a role suitable for me?" Scarlett smiled slightly.

Lin Chu took the paper, wiped his face, and said softly: "Scarlett, this is the men's room... There is no role suitable for you yet, I'm sorry."

In his arrangement, "Contagion" had to be filmed first, and the leading role of this film was assigned to Anne Hathaway, followed by several actors from the company, such as Gal Gadot.

If the Asians wanted to invite one, he planned to arrange for Yan Danchen to come over, or perhaps Chen Shu. If that was not enough, he would invite two people from outside. As for Scarlett, it was not part of his arrangements.

"I have seen all the Marvel movies and superheroes, such as Scarlet Witch, Pepper Potts, etc."

Scarlett said a lot. She is indeed familiar with superheroes and seems to have read a lot of comics.

Lin Chu was stunned. After saying so much, she didn't say Black Widow, which made him curl his lips and said softly: "Wait a little longer, the specific plan has not been announced yet.

007 movies are not suitable for you. "Brave" is an animated movie. For "Contagion", the characters have already been decided. "Pi" has no heroine, so you can only wait."

"What about the comic book movie? I think Scarlet Witch suits me very well. This is a series of movies. What do you think?" Scarlett winked.

Lin Chu smiled and was about to speak when Anne Hathaway came over from one side and took Lin Chu's arm: "Lin, let's go. There is a gentleman over there who wants to see you."

"Scarlett, are you okay?" Hathaway glanced at Scarlett with a smile.

Scarlett shook her head: "It's okay, Lin, we will communicate later."

Lin Chu narrowed his head, took Annie's arm and left. When he walked into the crowd, he said softly: "Thank you for helping me out."

"You are now a Hollywood upstart, and there are many people who want roles, so I just solve the problem for the boss." Annie smiled slightly.

Lin Chu smiled: "In the next movie, you will be the heroine. You have three choices for Marvel's heroes. One is Pepper, and the other is Scarlet Witch and Black Widow."

Although Scarlett's Black Widow is deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, it may not be bad to switch to Annie. Her figure is also first-rate, and her acting skills are also first-rate.

In fact, there are many other characters, such as Thor's sister Hela, and the female Thor, but none of them are as deeply rooted in the hearts of the people as Black Widow.

"I will listen to you." Annie smiled.

Lin Chu was startled, she was really a smart woman.

Anne led him to one side, where a blond man in his forties stood there. He was neither fat nor thin, and looked very strong.

He smiled at Lin Chu and gave him a hug.

"Mr. Lin, I'm Hank from Sun Capital, can we chat?" the man said softly.

Lin Chu was startled, then nodded, and turned to look at Annie: "Annie, pour me a glass of wine. This should be a bar with Nafis?"

"Mr. Lin also likes the wine from Nafice Winery? It really has a charming aroma." Hank praised.

Lin Chu smiled, walked to one side with him and sat down.

Annie got the wine and walked over from one side. She was wearing a white off-shoulder dress and had a really good figure.

She was very young this year and looked bright and extraordinary. After passing the wine to Lin Chu, she turned and left, with a graceful and graceful figure.

Hank praised: "Mr. Lin has a good taste in women. Miss Anne is indeed very beautiful."

"Okay, Hank, let's talk business." Lin Chu smiled.

Hank nodded: "Lin, we want to invest in MGM, 1.5 billion, how about 15% of the equity?"

"Hank, why didn't you acquire MGM before? No one was paying attention to MGM before. There are too many opportunities." Lin Chu shrugged.
