The Limited group is the Firefly investment company and Brighton Family takes through the malicious purchase, although two have 62% stocks together, has the absolute holding power, when but Eric ejects 20 million USD manufactures the marketing plan of Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show, immediately encounters in Limited Board of Directors the vigorous oppositions of other shareholder representatives. The Limited group that in order to avoid just completing malicious acquisition had the turbulence again, Eric embraces this matter on own initiative. Even considers the Firefly Group young shareholder possible response, the Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show production cost also completely by the Eric personal investment.
Initiates a project the final television broadcast from this fashion show, the sensational effect of produces has all proven in this fashion according to the great success of big show, but before the Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show recording tape distributes, anybody has not thought in this to have the profit according to the show itself the potential, even if after Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show broadcasts the high viewing ratio brought in one to attempt to purchase the broadcast power in large numbers TV Station, but to expand the influence of Victoria’s Secret brand as far as possible, Eric was low regarding the initial price of broadcast power, some Europe small country TV Station even only used 100,000 USD to take away the Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show television broadcast power, finally this gross income. 10 million, are not enough to recoup the 20 million USD manufacture fund as before.
However, after the Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show recording tape distributes, the unexpected aspect appeared.
In the tall and pleasing to the eye fashion according to show's recording tape collection value, six has to attack the song of any music ranking first place position, as well as in the mistake arising out of chance circumstances sells the hunger and thirst marketing effect that is out of stock to form repeatedly, causing the popularity of Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show recording tape to go far beyond anticipated of all people, in the United States native place, the Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show recording tape sales volume possibly achieved the 20 million box merely, the broad overseas market sale prospect was hard to expect.
By the irritable sale of Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show recording tape, is only the recording tape sale of United States native place can be merely Eric brings the 300 million USD income. Even if the Eric present sale price has achieved has counted 10 billion USD, but this sum of money for him is also an unexpected unexpected wealth.
When all people are the sales volume of Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show recording tape feels the exclamation, most regrets definitely initially strongly opposed to disburse money to manufacture Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show that some Limited shareholders, it is estimated that these people hear the sales digit of Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show recording tape, will unable to bear have an impulsion of hitting the wall. If initially were not their vigorous oppositions, now the Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show recording tape income will belong to Limited. This income almost can make the Limited profit for the year turn time.
What is more serious, rich profit Limited that this year Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show brings definitely is divides is less, because initially carelessly had sold to Firefly Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show copyright, Limited is unable to share the profit in the commercial operation of future any Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show similarly.
Therefore, Emily just attempted to take back the probe of Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show copyright to be surprised.
Although the bilateral relations are close, but Emily after all is the Brighton Family person, in business word business, if can take back Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show copyright, Brighton Family can get the interests in the future similarly.
Actually from the beginning. The plan of Eric independently manufactures Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show to make Limited see the advertisement effect, then so-called copyright will return to Limited continues to operate, he simply has not thought Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show can bring this kind of accidental unexpected wealth for oneself. But now, just like Emily is the same in the business word business, since Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show itself has obtained the unexpected success in the trade, Eric is impossible to carry out the original plan again.
However, Eric is also very clear, accident success of Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show in recording tape release only possibly has this time. Because this year's success spare no effort transfers the entire Firefly Group media resources as well as the Yahoo network medium in Eric, own strength kissed for the place has carried on the final effect that continued six months operation to achieve.
But Eric impossible to continue to consume the innumerable media resources to do this matter in the future. Even if he wants, after Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show loses the curiosity and mystery, the audience will not continue to show respect for somebody's ability again, in the meantime, the Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show form is actually unitary, it not like Super Bowl or Oscar presentation ceremony. Every year can bring enough suspense for the audience, possibility that therefore this success has not duplicated completely.
Therefore, although because of the first successful operation, Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show definitely can also bring some profits in the next few years, is impossible to maintain too for a long time. Therefore. Now Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show copyright, almost quite in dumps a stock in the peak independently.
Considered the moment, Eric to say to Emily: „If I am willing also to return to Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show copyright, what pricetag Limited here can give?”
„?” Emily stares the big eye immediately, somewhat unbelievable is looking at Eric, as to determine one misunderstood, Chris and Joanna several people also surprisedly are looking at Eric.
Although some people on previous Limited Board of Directors proposed withdraws the suggestion of Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show copyright, Emily is also quite excited, otherwise she just will not probe Eric, but hears Eric to say itself to be willing at this time to drop Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show copyright, Emily has an unbelievable feeling, because she is the same with many people, has not had any expectation to this matter at heart.
However, surprised moment, Emily restored, confirmed that asked: „Eric, what you just said is real?”
Eric shrugs: „Naturally, the pricetag enough sincerity of if Limited starting out, I definitely will not have complied.”
„This, we had not considered really this situation,” Emily smiled awkwardly, tells the facts: „I need to go back to discuss with other shareholders, but, Eric, you......” Emily were saying, has gesticulated carelessly: „You...... How much money Caiken wants to satisfy?”
Eric said: „I am not short of money now, if you pay the cash, I must give the personal income tax, this is not cost-effective, therefore Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show copyright was counted is the equity investment.”
Hears Eric to want Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show copyright to convert the Limited stockholder's rights, Emily shows a pitiful expression immediately: „Eric, initially Limited sold to you copyright with a symbolic price, you feel all right to ask for the too high pricetag, moreover your this time has gained that many.”
The Eric booth lets go, says with a smile: „If no accidental income that the recording tape distributes. My this time must give instead of taking 20 million USD, and has consumed Firefly Group and Yahoo gateway that many media resources, therefore this sum of money I take unusual is satisfied. Now I turned into Hong Kong kumquat a soybean, you naturally must buy according to the golden price, haha.”
Emily hear of Eric said that also no longer makes these senseless gestures. Mentioned the proper business seriously: „That, if Limited takes copyright, you personally will also participate in the manufacture of Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show?”
Eric shakes the head: „This year this percentage participating definitely is impossible, but I am also the Limited major stockholder, if there is any good idea I not to be definitely parsimonious. Moreover, this year Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show made a very good start, therefore even if next year I do not participate, you also can definitely draw to a heavyweight creation team, like the background song of big show. Next year you can cooperate with some top musicians, by the Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show present influence, these singers definitely is also willing Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show as the platform of new song, although like this will be divvied up part in the recording tape income by these singers, the income that but Limited yields definitely is similarly rich . Moreover the income that don't forget, the Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show most basic function to the marketing of Victoria’s Secret brand, this big show itself can bring directly gradually will definitely fall. But Victoria's Secret this brand actually under for many years persistent strengthening, maintains a very strong status at own domain.”
Emily nods freely. Listened to Eric saying that had not given full expression cracks a joke saying: „Eric, I some want to draw you to Limited now am the operations director.”
The people have smiled, Eric also with a smile teased: „You definitely could not invite.”
Afterward several days, the Limited aspect has almost drawn up a plan impatiently, eventually both sides achieved the transaction by the value 225 million USD stockholder's rights. Eric regarding this initial price is very satisfied. Originally Firefly investment and Brighton Family equal distribution that 62% stockholder's rights, but after this transaction, the owning stocks share of Firefly investment increased to 35%, became the Limited first major stockholder, the Brighton Family owning stocks share dropped slightly 30%.
Although many industry analysts keenly pointed out that Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show the success in trade is not replicable this year. But the response of market often is very blind, will otherwise not have the appearance of stock market bubble, therefore, stimulated the Limited stock price in agreement of this transaction again, making the Limited market value break through 5 billion USD top digits. However, matter that these afterward some time had.
After the Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show television broadcast had ended, the Eric energy changes Hollywood again.
Along with oncoming of Christmas day running schedule, «Face/Off» and «Jumanji» of Columbia of release Firefly release is fooled one after another, because «Jumanji» involved the massive special effect, but original this special effect somewhat manufactured in a rough way obviously, Eric is not certainly willing to make same mistakes over again, therefore gave in budget unusual was ample. Finally the update «Jumanji» manufacture compared with original this excellent many, but, the budget also successively increases, eventually achieved the 80 million USD top digit, the marketing expense has also spent 40 million USD. Compares, the «Face/Off» final investment budget has 60 million USD, the marketing budget also lowers to «Jumanji» a lot.
However, after two movies open, had some unexpected accidents, «Face/Off» has early screened one week of time compared with «Jumanji», first week Box Office has attained 3 6 million splendid Box Office, simultaneously its splendid plot also obtained the consistent praise of film critic, eventually Box Office possibly achieves about 120 million USD, although the result compared in initial «Mr. & Mrs. Smith» so is not outstanding, but this movie can recoup the production cost in the North America market merely, the release through overseas market, can realize the profit on Box Office, following peripheral announcement basically was the net profit. moistened.
Afterward, «Jumanji» screened.
This was placed the great expectations by Columbia the special effect big piece, first week Box Office similarly is 3 more than 6 million USD. Right, is almost impartial with «Face/Off», but the Columbia initial Box Office forecast is this movie first week should take about 45 million Box Office, the realistic and ideal disparity is very obviously big.
Moreover, to the «Face/Off» good reputation, «Jumanji» somewhat is awful in film critic there reputation, many film critic expressed that this movie ‚noise’, simultaneously Director some are infatuated with the stack of CG Special Effects.
Because although the CG Special Effects movie market saturated, many audiences have not come under the influence that the «Jumanji» reputation declines, second week this special effect big piece Box Office decline range only then weak 26%, two weeks of 6 more than 2 million USD Box Office result were splendid, but defers to Box Office to estimate that «Jumanji» the domestic Box Office very possible stop motion in 140 million USD about, to lower 60 million compared with 200 million USD native place Box Office of Columbia estimate finally fully.
Reduced after just in the past the soon 2.1 billion USD large amount property records the event, Sony read to the Hollywood resentment infinitely, although «Jumanji» Box Office can make it push in year Box Office first ten finally as before, after the releases of various types of channels, this movie has considerable prospective profit similarly, but Box Office has not achieved anticipated, is actually a fact.
Meanwhile, because is choosing Columbia next leader to run into a wall again and again, Barry Diller and Amy Pascal and Michael the Lynn and other Hollywood well-known supervisors have rejected gathering of Columbia, felt that entire Hollywood own Sony finally has not borne play the temperament in ‚bullying’.
But plays the first matter that the temper Sony makes, in Firefly «Men in Black» and in «Mr. & Mrs. Smith» negotiations strong, even openly claimed, if Firefly continues deliberately to delay the sequel development process, Columbia will not hesitate to maintain own interests using the legal means.
Eric had not planned feels embarrassed Sony in the development of these movie sequels, he also hopes that Sony continues to keep Hollywood to contribute labor and materials.
However, Sony does not think obviously that intertwines regarding Eric in the «Men in Black» Lord creates the salary the matter, Sony recognized from beginning to end, this is Firefly the stance of wanting monopoly «Men in Black» copyright makes.
Therefore, in a short time negotiated in fruitless situation, Sony instructed that the Columbia interim administration level has handled another matter, the request decides with «Night at the Museum» and that «Forrest Gump» Flower Films signed even is as in screening the release contracts of «Mission: Impossible» series.( To be continued.)
