Chapter 994: Huge investment

Yin Jun sent the scripts of the three TV series to Tang Shuxuan, and all the cooperation let her negotiate.

This is also a weapon on the North American branch, which can help them to develop the market and actively develop the market.

If everything is controlled by Yin Jun, Tang Shuxuan naturally has no prestige. Without the prestige of the general manager, how can a company be managed well?

It's just that the teenager added a condition.

"ABC's sports channel department has a deputy director named Robert? Iger, I hope he will come to Disney TV channel as director."

Tang Shuxuan didn't understand Yin Jun's intention, but she also remembered it in her heart, and planned to add this condition when negotiating.

With the urgency of ABC's cooperation with Disney, the transfer of a deputy director of a department is not a big problem.

As for Robert Iger, whom Yin Jun values, the people above decided everything, and he naturally did not have much power to speak.

Coupled with the greater power and development space of Disney TV channels, and can also give him a lot of higher treatment, Tang Shuxuan would not think that he would resist.

The director of the original Disney TV channel ...

Since the boss intends to change people, and it was obvious that he was not capable enough before, he would not let so many production staff and actors leave. This time, he just took the knife and shocked the Disney people.

After all, "Happy Hotel" and "American Idol" have completely stabilized Disney's military, and now it is time to settle the accounts.

Yin Jun wants this Robert? Iger, in the future is a famous person!

He is the president of Disney after Michael Eisner, and he is also a better professional manager than Michael Eisner.

It is under his leadership that Disney has successively acquired Pixar Animation, Marvel Corporation and Lucasfilm, completely letting Disney ride the dust and becoming the largest entertainment media group in Hollywood.

And Robert Iger ’s criticism is very good, not only the internal staff can awe him, and the relationship with the company outside is also good, as well as those companies that have been incorporated into Disney, such as Pixar, Marvel, etc., can dominate him. In the next step, you can maximize your power, rather than wasting energy in internal consumption.

Especially Marvel.

If Robert Iger did not dare to let go, where did they have the prestige to sweep the world afterwards?

Of course, now Robert Iger is too young and needs more than ten years of training before he can focus on appointing him.

But to recruit him in advance, it is also very necessary to let him hone under his eyelids, so that he can make better use of his talents, so that when there is a need, he can directly call this talent Give top.

Yin Jun told this matter, and his mind fell into the third important thing in North America.

In June of this year, Yin Jun sold the 4 million-square-foot B-type land exchange rights book to the Wheelock and Swire Group at a sky-high price of 3.5 billion Hong Kong dollars.

These 3.5 billion Hong Kong dollars, originally even Shen Bi was confident that Yin Jun would use the money to repay the loan, so as to reduce pressure.

As a result, Yin Jun did not take the HSBC bank account at all, but directly transferred it to the bank account of the United States and the United States, as a fund for the establishment of 100 IMAX theaters in North America.

Disney and Lianyi Movies have their own distribution teams. Yin Jun let them form a team to go to an important city in North America and choose a suitable place to open an IMAX theater.

Because the distribution teams of these two companies will definitely be merged into one, for their future positions, the two teams are working very hard to find a suitable place to open a movie theater.

First of all, the price cannot be too expensive.

Yin Jun needs to buy land, and the land should be around 100 acres, and there are as many as 100, but the capital is only 730 million, which is equivalent to an average of 7.3 million. You have to buy land and then build a movie theater.

Fortunately, the projection equipment and audio are all paid by the boss separately, otherwise they will not be able to make such a budget.

Even in October, they have already made investigations, budgets, and plans for 50 parties each, which seems a bit tight, and the location of the movie theaters is mostly remote.

Tang Shuxuan was more careful, let them sort out, and then sent the drawings to Yin Jun.

The boys have read them one by one in the past two days, and in the living room of the house, they have spread out a large map of the United States and the United States, so that they have made a mark with a pen to take a look at the results they have made.

US. The essence of the country is in New York and California.

To be precise, it is the northeast region and the west coast region.

The northeastern region is the origin of the United States. Most of the 13 states above the Stars and Stripes are from here. Naturally, it is also the most developed industry and business.

California on the west coast is even more remarkable. It is known as the sixth largest country in the world, meaning that its tax and economic strength are already comparable to the sixth largest country in the world.

However, in the movie box office, the two regions add up to 50% of the box office.

the reason is simple.

美. The country is a highly developed country. In every big city, there are a lot of viewers.

If you say that you are buying luxury goods, sports cars, the number of people reading, etc., to fight for quality and money, they are definitely not as good as the Northeast and West Coast, but the movies are so cheap, so cheap movie tickets, so the public entertainment , Who they really won't lose to.

Therefore, the choice of movie theaters should not be pointed at these places, but should be viewed by region.

The two teams are basically separated from the middle of the United States. They are responsible for the east and the west.

From the locations they demarcated, basically all big cities in the United States and China have been delineated. Naturally, there will be more economically developed areas, and there will naturally be fewer places with sparse population.

In Yin Jun's eyes, he could not find any problems.

The top ten cities in the United States. The most box office in the country is surrounded by their key care, but it also shows that they do not eat dry food.

Tang Shuxuan has found a special evaluation agency to evaluate the location of these 100 movie theaters, and basically scored more than 80 points.

This is enough.

Yin Jun's idea is not 100% accurate as soon as he comes up, he is not so demanding.

As long as it is generally correct, the first step of the experiment can stand firm and inspire those large theaters to let them see the benefits of the IMAX theater. This is a great achievement.

Even if Yin Jun may build another one or two hundred movie theaters in the future, but by his own strength, there is no way to promote IMAX and 3D to the whole world. Only when more movie theater merchants join in will that be achieved. wish.

After approving the achievements of their work for several months, Yin Jun called Tang Shuxuan and asked her to notify the two teams that they could start the formal purchase and construction.

Prior to this, both teams actually talked to the owners of these lands. With a basic intention, as long as the boss agrees to their plans, they will buy these lands and build these movie theaters within the scope of funds. .

Although they did not understand why Yin Jun wanted such a large site, and after buying it, it was so wasteful to build only a layer of cinema, but these are the boss ’s money and the boss ’s decision, and they can only execute it.

Fortunately, the land in the United States is cheap, especially outside the bustling urban area, the land is even less valuable, that is, the labor is more expensive, otherwise the 730 million US dollars, there is really no way to get it down.

Of course, the size and layout of the movie theater are all drawn by IMAX, and then they are personally guided and accepted.

Only in this way can we guarantee the best IMAX look and feel to present to the audience.

The problem of the movie theater has basically been solved, but there is another important step that requires Yin Jun to work hard.

That is the problem of IMAX equipment.

Everyone knows that IMAX is divided into two systems.

One set is a film IMAX system, and the other is a digital IMAX system.

From the perspective of viewing effects, it is natural that the film's IMAX system presents the best.

The seven-story giant screen lined up to let you see the shock of the wonderful world of the movie is definitely not comparable to ordinary digital IMAX.

For example, Christopher Nolan's favorite is film shooting, and the film's IMAX system is his favorite.

Unfortunately, in 2014, after Nolan ’s "Interstellar", there is no longer any film IMAX system, because its cost is too high, and the input-output ratio is not proportional at all.

Basically, you build a film IMAX system, the cost is 20 to 30 times that of the digital IMAX system.

It's not even counted. What's more powerful is that the cost of each film copy is more frightening than the digital copy cost.

The digital copy is such a small box, and the film copy is 70mm wide, and the length of the film per second is 1.7 meters. Calculating a 120-minute film copy, the weight of the film is as high as 400 kg! ! The cost is also one for 60,000 US dollars!

If you show 3,000 screens, you have to spend 180 million US dollars to make a copy. How amazing is the cost?

It's no wonder that after IMAX himself, after "Interstellar", he announced that he would stop the commercial operation of film IMAX equipment.

Such a price, local tyrants can not afford to burn!

But now, digital IMAX equipment cannot be manufactured at all. First of all, IMAX digital cameras have not been developed.

According to their cooperation with companies such as SONY and Nikon, at least five years later, they can see a little dawn.

So I can only use film IMAX system.

IMAX's offer to Yin Jun is a complete set of IMAX equipment, excluding film copies. The price is 8 million US dollars, or 100 sets, which is 800 million US dollars, close to 4 billion Hong Kong dollars.

Don't think it's expensive.

If IMAX was not Yin Jun ’s industry, even the factory was IMAX ’s own. They basically calculated only 10% of their gross profit. For this price, they can report a set of 12 million dollars to the outside world!

As for this 10% gross profit ~ www.novelhall.com ~ is also a normal thing. After all, as an operating company, although they are almost all shares held by Yin Jun, and the research and development funds are also given by Yin Jun, But they need to have their own achievements and pride in success.

According to the current construction speed, at most the end of February next year, the cinema must be built, and then it is time to start adding equipment and testing.

You can't start production at that time, it must start in December, and then more than 2 months, 100 sets of IMAX equipment can be completed.

Means that Yin Jun needs to collect 800 million US dollars to IMAX again in November, so that they can actively prepare materials before they can start preparing for production.

At least raise US $ 400 million to get people to start work.

Is light and easy to say.

400 million dollars!

HK $ 1.92 billion!

It's already October now. Only one month, can Yin Jun raise so much money?
