Logan likes talking with Megan very much. Sophia is so elegant and graceful, but her hand is not so pleasing to the eye. The pressure is not vague, which makes him feel great pressure as a veteran who has been on Wall Street for many years.

Logan and Larry are old friends. Their common hobby (chasing beautiful women) makes them often go to parties and attend activities together. However, in terms of capital, Logan is getting worse year by year, while Larry is growing day by day. His assets have changed from the same level in the 1990s to ten times the gap. Even the trust fund assets under the names of David and Megan brothers are not under all his assets.

Logan believes that young Megan is easier to deal with than strong women in the mall. In fact, Megan raised the offer to 700 million, which narrowed the gap between the two sides, but the gap is still huge.

But Megan was not as polite as Sophia: "it's not a wise choice not to take 700 million and have to hold it in hand and transfuse it every year."

Logan said: "in fact, you don't have many choices. Only DC can compete with marvel, but DC under warner can't be sold, so we have become your only choice. Your willingness to offer 700 million shows that you see the value of marvel and its important value to you. Marvel is a treasure house."

Although she is a niece of the world, it won't prevent him from knocking hard. It's called business, even if Larry comes.

Megan said, "maybe? Even so, it's like an oil field buried in the deep sea, which can't be exploited by your small companies. Marvel has been in your hands for 15 years. I believe it's a balance of payments at most. Although you are a commercial genius, you can't make Marvel big, which is also a fact, just like you can't make a woman without fertility. "

Logan is quite angry. Why is this girl so aggressive and ugly? At least I'm your elder. Logan said, "we have established Marvel film and are ready to enter the film and television industry and put our superhero blockbusters on the big screen. I believe your purpose is the same."

Megan said, "what's the most important thing about being in Hollywood? If you have money and can afford it, you can play. When you see the big sales of spider man and X-Men, you should not ignore the huge losses of hulk and super braveman. The success rate of Spider Man 2 is 292 million. If you lose, can marvel afford it? I'm afraid of going bankrupt again. More importantly, according to your past bad record, it should be difficult to find partners, which means you have to prepare hundreds of millions of funds alone. You should understand the risks. "

The original version saw that spider man and X-Men were on sale. Others ate meat and ate soup dregs. Marvel was jealous and envious. They used their superhero version as collateral and borrowed 500 million funds from the bank to build their own production, publicity and distribution channels. They colluded with paramount to be responsible for distribution, put all their eggs in one basket and fight back to create iron man, As a result, the salted fish turned over and entered the era of opening and hanging.

Now Marvel has been established and iron man has been put on the agenda. Marvel's president even plans to invite Nick casavi, who has been popular recently, to be the director, and the funds will be mortgaged with superhero copyright. However, the bank thinks that the risk is too high, flatly refuses and demands repayment of the loan. This is the only option left. Several major shareholders pay out their own money, Such a risk is too great. Logan doesn't know whether Stan Lee and Alan will agree, but he doesn't dare.

Selling marvel for cash is also an option, but the other party's offer can't satisfy him. Mm has a lot of money, but people are not stupid. Logan even suspects that the bank refused to lend. Sophia played a key role. Not only can they not borrow money, they will also be recovered. The other party is ready to deploy and prepare to annex marvel. These Logan are a little angry and play these small tricks I played ten years ago, I'm Logan's old ancestor in this field. Whoever wants Marvel can only buy it from me and give me a satisfactory number.

This time the negotiations broke up unhappily.

Soon, Logan received a call from Larry and told Logan that he had a batch of Revlon shares in his hand. He was ready to sell them for cash. If logan was willing to buy them, he was willing to sell them at the same price. If they sold them, Revlon's share price would fall sharply and everyone would lose.

This is Logan's old life. He is no longer interested in knowing when Larry holds Revlon shares, but if the other party sells off, the consequences will be unimaginable. He has spent nine cattle and two tigers to stabilize the stock price. This is the second heavy pressure on the other party.

Logan had no choice but to hold a shareholders' meeting to discuss the big plan. Most shareholders intended to sell their shares for cash. Only the old die hard Stan Lee and arand did not agree to sell. In this way, only about 80% of the shares they could sell. However, Logan also learned a move from Stan Lee and them. Mm spent a lot of money to buy Marvel, which is certainly not for fun, Mm is very good at making movies. Why not take the opportunity to catch up with MM?

Logan contacted again and proposed to sell 40% of his equity. The two sides formed a joint board of directors to jointly take charge of marvel, and then raised funds to shoot iron man. Logan's wishful thinking is very successful. Mm film is a film company in Hollywood. What really makes people look at it is that they have two big backers, bank and Oracle, After everyone becomes a partner, it is equal to sharing such advantageous resources in some aspects. In the future, it will not be difficult for his company to make loans and financing.

However, Megan refused directly because there was no record of profit in all the projects cooperated with Logan. Revlon and marvel introduced Logan into the board of directors, eventually turned the company into his own, and made the two companies into a mess. The market value of large iron is full of complaints from both shareholders and shareholders, The tycoon known as an ambitious man is not a good partner, or is he famous for pitching teammates and selling teammates. Just when Megan lobbied Larry for this project, Larry warned Megan: "my fair weather friend is not a good man and girl. I can sell and buy with a hammer, but I can't cooperate.

Mark's attitude was the same: "I don't want to sleep and keep my eyes open!" When Mark was busy putting out the fire and playing with women in Batman, Megan was not idle. She was working hard to acquire marvel. In order to facilitate her work, she flew to the Oracle branch in New York to command and dispatch everything nearby. Under her, there was an acquisition team composed of more than a dozen financial and accounting lawyers to provide her with legal and strategic support.

Their acquisition strategy is not only to continuously increase the quotation to satisfy Logan. They have formulated another extreme approach, short marvel, force it to go bankrupt, and then buy it from the bank. Now they have made the early deployment and can sell it when necessary. After careful research, Megan also found that marvel is different from mm, It's really a treasure house. What does Disney rely on to become big? It's IP! With the acquisition of marvel, mm can also create its own IP, so as to become bigger and stronger, so now she is determined to win marvel.

Megan said: "I am very interested in Marvel, but to get marvel, there is not only one way to ask you for a price. You are also an M & a expert. You should know that when you have a lot of resources, you can have many choices. I am satisfied with your rude and extreme style in the past, and my team is ready."

Logan said, "I heard the threat?"

Megan said, "it's a kind reminder. If there is malice, you should hear the news that a large number of stocks have been sold off and banks are forced to pay debts."

In the shopping mall, big fish eat small fish. Logan is also a believer of this creed. The fish targeted by predators basically have no good results. He bought Revlon with a market value of 10 billion with a fortune of less than 3 billion. This is a world-famous World War I. now the situation has reversed. It's his turn to become prey. It's not a good feeling. The other people are people he knows, He knows how terrible it is for the other party's financial resources to be converted into force. He also knows that the other party's offer is good, which has reached a premium of 30%, but he is unwilling to sell it like this.

Logan said: "I hope you will mention 800 million to buy 80% of Marvel's equity, and you can talk to Stan Lee about the other 20%

Megan said, "that is, the total purchase price will be one billion!"

Logan said, "I will never sell Marvel without a billion."

Megan said, "I can raise the total offer to 800 million. If I only sell 80%, it will be 650 million US dollars. This is the final offer. I also believe that we are the highest bidder in the market, far higher than Viacom's 500 million, and we pay in cash and arrive at the account at one time."

”Billion! " Logan insisted and said, "I've estimated that the success of your forced acquisition will not be lower than this. Why not write a large check and end the acquisition war at once?"

Since MM asked for the price, he has been inclined to sell. He is no longer interested in risking to prepare funds to shoot iron man. If he holds 800 million cash, his life will be much better. If the price is lower, he would rather die than sell. Now he understands the mood of the enterprises he forcibly acquired in those years, in addition to asking for a better offer, There is no other way.

If it is a full acquisition, one billion will be one billion, and 20% of the equity is out, which makes Megan a little unhappy. Her acquisition team has contacted Stan Lee. They swear to live and die with marvel and refuse to sell anything. That is to say, they can receive up to 80% of the purchase, and then transfer it to mm and divide it into several parts. The root is not enough, "800 million is all the offer. If the friendly negotiation fails, I don't rule out the possibility of malicious acquisition," she said
