Chapter 215: The industry badmouths Paramount, and the minor league blocks the telecom listing plan
Another big event happened in Hollywood in September 93.
After Paramount announced the schedule for The Last Day 2, great director Spielberg's Jurassic Park also arrived as scheduled.
Universal's thoughts can be heard even by Dragon Kingdom fans on the other side of the ocean.
Jurassic Park is the sequel to Stop the Coming of Death!
This is not the first time that the four major Hollywood studios have done this.
The events of Batman vs. Spider-Man a year ago are still fresh in my mind.
Just when everyone in the public and minor leagues thought that Paramount would be as tough as ever.
Paramount issued a statement that Death Comes 2 had to be withdrawn and rescheduled due to technical issues.
At first, fans thought Paramount was too cowardly.
I don’t even get the chance to prove myself so well.
But when the Jurassic Park weekend box office was released, everyone who watched the show shut their mouths.
In just one weekend, Jurassic hit a global box office of 8000 million.
Some newspapers predict that the box office of Jurassic Park is likely to break the box office record set by ET.
And raise the new box office record to an unprecedented height!
Some media insinuated that it was a wise move for Paramount to withdraw the film in time.
Several blockbusters released at the same time as Jurassic Park were badly damaged, and most of them had no hope of recovering their production costs.
Shirley looked at this with a thankful attitude.
When Wang Lei proposed withdrawing the film, she was a little unconcerned. She felt that even if the opponent was Spielberg, Death Comes, who has a large number of movie fans, would still be able to fight.
All that is left for her now is happiness.
Because after the success of the first part of Death Comes.
Shirley increased investment in the sequel, spending a lot of money on road accident scenes, setting up many more bizarre ways to die, and adding a lot of expensive special effects.
The total investment is up to 600 million US dollars.
If it collides with the rampant Jurassic Park, even if it can recover losses in the offline disc business, Paramount will lose a lot of revenue.
The pressure is on Paramount's side.
Some people are comparing Jurassic Park, which has already grossed 9 million US dollars, with Titanic, which has just completed filming.
One film cost more than 1000 million US dollars to set a global box office record, and the other cost 2 million dollars to create, but it is already destined to suffer losses before it is released.
I can’t help but worry about Paramount’s situation.
How long can they hold on under the encirclement and suppression of the Big Four?
A big question mark has been placed in many people's minds for Paramount.
People in the minor leagues are very happy to see that the entire industry is badmouthing Wang Lei's Paramount.
Because she was about to give birth, Akhben, as the protagonist, was not present, but this did not affect the minor leaguers from celebrating in advance.
"Death 2 has been cancelled, and Titanic is about to suffer huge losses. Judging from this situation, Paramount will enter a period of decline in the next few years."
"This Wang Lei is not as powerful as the rumors say. You can't put eggs in one basket. He doesn't understand such a simple truth. He deserves to be beaten up by our brothers without saying a word."
Looking at his friend whose tail was about to reach the sky, Guy knocked on the table:
"You underestimate Wang Lei too much. Before you know it, he is planning to do something big in our base camp, the British Isles."
Kembauer asked curiously:
"Are you talking about Aerospace Telecommunications preparing to go public on Eagle Island?"
"Yes, because Aerospace operates this matter quietly, only a few people know this information."
After hearing the news, everyone couldn't help but have their own thoughts.
"Guy, what do you mean, you want to prevent Aerospace Telecom from going public?"
"Yes, Prince Charles and Wang Lei have an old grudge. As long as we work together, Wang Lei's plan to make money by going public can easily be aborted!"
Going public also costs money. Roadshows and various publicity and activity expenses are a lot of money.
And if the first listing is unsuccessful, the next listing will become even more difficult.
After all, they have the final say on the British Isles, and Wang Lei, an outsider, will be treated with special care.
"Wang Lei wanted to go public in Eagle Country, but I, Kembauer, was the first to refuse!"
Guy and others felt that they had caught Wang Lei's pain point, and were ready to give him a taste of the iron fist of capitalism.
"Don't forget to say hello to Akhben. We can't forget her for such a good thing."
Akhben knew, and representative Wang Lei also knew about it.
“Want to stop me from going public?”
Wang Lei kept sneering on the phone, which made Akhben feel a chill running down his back.
Aerospace Telecom's new business has developed well in the past two years, at least the financial reports look very beautiful, but the focus is not on research and development, but on various marketing.
Typical trade, industry and technology companies use their strong trade network and marketing capabilities to make data look very good.
The purpose is to make a lot of money in the financial market after listing.
Guy's plan is indeed extremely ruthless. If it is delayed for a few more years, Aerospace Telecom's sales will definitely be weak. When it is listed again, he will make a lot of less pounds.
But a few people still miscalculated one thing. He could not only go public, but also directly package and sell Aerospace Telecommunications.
Now the top two telecommunications giants in Eagle Country are locked in intense competition.
Both sides fought fiercely for the title of first place.
Wang Lei’s sale of Aerospace Telecom at this time is an unprecedented challenge for both companies.
If Mannes, the second oldest, buys Aerospace Telecom, his market share in Xizhou will definitely exceed that of Vodafone, the first giant.
If Aerospace Telecom falls into the arms of Vodafone, it will be very difficult for Mannes, the second oldest one.
Especially the stock price will plummet.
For the title of No. [-], the two companies are bound to fall into a competition for aerospace.
And Wang Lei is bound to become the final winner.
After listening to Wang Lei's analysis, Akhben suddenly became enlightened and said curiously:
"I'm relieved now that you have a way to deal with it. You had thought that such a day would come, right?"
Wang Lei smiled incredulously:
"But now is not the best time to take action. As soon as they made the plan, news came out that I was selling Aerospace. You will definitely become the object of their suspicion.
I plan to slowly stop Aerospace’s listing plan first, and then release the news about the listing in a year or two..."
"This plan is very good. It will definitely push up the valuation of Aerospace when the time comes. But you are counting on Guy. He is destined to waste all his efforts."
"Haha, the person I should thank the most is you, otherwise I would really be tricked by Guy."
With Akhben tipping off Wang Lei, Wang Lei did suffer a lot.
This werewolf killing has just begun.
Just when both parties had their own plans, Titanic finally confirmed its release schedule after post-production and screening review!
